it's ragdoll's world, i just live in it.

If you were ragdoll, today would be your birthday, and you'd be 29 again! :D Happy birthday, sweetie! (I am a slug who has not yet mailed your present because I bought it a week ago but the day just crept up!)

In my last post I said I was going to go check on Sick T. Well, as it turns out... I didn't. First of all, Sick T. went to the doc's today, was diagnosed with some sinus ailment, and was put on a course of antibiotics. Meanwhile, I hurt my back twice in the same way on Thursday, doing dumb things that don't bear description, and I have a killer headache and have been feeling generally under the weather all day. End result is that the momster invited T. to come and sleep on the sofa so that we could hang out together in greater comfort and so that I could stay home and rest. So he's asleep downstairs and I'm in my room. We just watched TV and a movie (Pirates of the Caribbean) and I worked on knitting a sock heel. We have an idea for some interesting "hipster knitting" merchandise, but we'll tell you more when we're ready to unveil it.

Mom says he's welcome to sleep on the sofa for the whole weekend if he wants. & she's going to make us a big breakfast tomorrow! Yay mom.

I have had a really good idea for a zine essay lately, and I want to work on it, but I haven't felt up to it.

OK, OK, I realize I haven't made an entry in a week that didn't mention my boyfriend. But we're really happy and stuff! We're always doing things or making plans to do things. Nonetheless, I will aim for at least a couple of non-cloying relationship-neutral entries each week.

Thank you, dear heart! Don't worry about the delay -- unlike last year (when I turned that hideous number...28!!!), I'm not angsty about stuff so whenever it gets here is groovy. It's the thought that counts!

Btw, I think it's amazingly good that your mom has let T. sleep on your couch etc. I can't imagine my mom EVER doing that with any of my past boyfriends. She's never liked any of them enough. (And better cloying relationship entries than cloying I Love My Daughter and Her Wacky School, SQUEE! posts all week...*ahem*).

There are, actually, hipster needlepoint sets that let you do needlepoint of album covers like 69 Love Songs and Tigermilk. No joke.

I'm totally psyched for you and T. ... I'm glad to hear you're having fun, and it's cool your mom has invited him over like that! :)
