Last night was ok... I was a crabby bitch, but other than that, it was lovely.

Andrew made a yummy nacho "cheese" dip, and refried beans, and we had nachos with beans, nacho dip, and salsa. It was tres yum.

Then I worked on my resume and cover letter for a while, and when I was done, he started working on the work shower gift for my work friend Heather. They now have matching aprons with a picture of them on them, and each has their own name. Super cute! Well, they don't HAVE them yet, but they will.

That took a long time, actually, because there was the design, then hunting around the damn apartment to find where in hell the transfer paper had gotten to. I SWORE that I'd put it in the drawer with all the other Xmas present stuff, but it wasn't there. So I got more and more frustrated as we went through the work room, the files, the computer desk, over and over and over. And then I thought, what if it fell out of the drawer? And it HAD, it was under the bed-table. At that point, I was just glad that the memory I had of putting it in the drawer in the first place was correct.

Phew.

Anyway, then, of course, the printing and the cutting out, then the placement and ironing. I helped with the cutting, but he did all the rest. He rocks like no other man, he just does.

Anyway, while he was doing the design and stuff, I had a bath and read. Oh yes, my life is hard.

And I've got to tell you - tea made with organic peppermint and licorice root is really super good. It's shockingly good, really. My new favourite tea. So sweet, with that pleasant licorice root aftertaste... oh yum.

your teas sound so good, we really should start drinking them at night instead of coffee.

Have you started looking for jobs now that your resume is all updated?

well, I'm still waiting for my technical writer friend to get back to me with any editing tips, but yeah, there's the one job I'm going to apply to asap, then on the weekend, if I can find the time, I'll do a more leisurely look.

aw, thanks! It helps that we need to be careful, money-wise, but I've always thought that homemade gifts have more meaning - as long as it's not some weird ass craft shit that no-one can use.
