A learning lesson for you, Lyra! Keep those blinds closed the next time you watch a horror movie!
eek! you just made it worse! My blinds/curtains in the back of the house are usually open because no one is behind us...

*sighs*

Gemini's are not mischievous!!!

I was up, lights were on, a movie was going...

Probably got alcohol somehow, and may have been too drunk. Granted I had my drunk and stupid moments on the rare occasion, I really didnt have drinks too often until after my 21st

On the upside of things, my gf and I moved to our new apartment in Centennial Hills and we LOVE it. The location, the quiet, the tall trees and green grass is really nice, our dog Lilly loves it too

GF got a new job and my hours have returned (though not to a full 40, im close in the low 30s) so we will have no issues with rent or bills.

Just did my first commute from CH to the Cosmopolitan to work, and it took me less time to get to work than it did from Twain and Swenson, and I'm 18 miles away now, I was 4 miles away before!

I am back from Michigan. the plane ride was easier the second time around. Although the difference between First class and Sardine class is a world apart. And this time I just focused on where I was while in Michigan instead of worrying if the cats were ok. Had a pet sitter come in and check them once a day.

We stayed in Auburn Hills, funeral was in Clarkston, Went to Ortonville and saw a long lost cousin I last saw when she was 10 (she still looks the same, just older). Went into Detroit, into Warren way on the other end that is not right across the street from ghettoville, then over to Clinton Township.

So green in Michigan, I really liked it. Was worried about our foray into old Detroit, but we survived. We had to see all the places where my husband grew up, the hospital he was born in, his childhood home,etc. A lot of burned out homes and some great big factories that look like if a leaf lands on it, the whole thing will disintegrate before your eyes. Really decrepit but interesting at the same time.

I have learned that either there are no supermarkets at all in Michigan or they hide them well. They seem to buy food at Meijer, Kmart, Target or Walmart. And the corner convenience store. Really weird in contrast to out here in Las Vegas where there seems to be a supermarket every few blocks.

I sneezed a lot while there, had excruciating foot pain to add to my regular foot pain(humidity?) And now I have jet lag and feel like I am in the Twilight zone.
