*sigh* So, remember how I said the kittens broke some of my favorite decorations last night? Yeah, well, I found the siamese cat they broke online. It’s a discontinued Hagan-Renaker, made from 1952-1975 and is worth $30.00. *sigh* (http://www.goantiques.com/search/images.jsp?id=363977) It’s amazing how you don’t know these things until something gets broken and has to be replaced. lol I haven’t decided if I’m going to replace it yet or not. I kind of want to but *shrugs*, it’s just a silly material possession. Maybe I’ll replace it with some of my birthday money.

My hubby e-mailed our neighbors to tell them we’d happily take care of their pets if anything happens to them. I hope this comforts them somewhat because really, you shouldn’t let these kinds of things keep you from enjoying life.

We’re going to get Casper groomed. A friend of ours just finished going to pet grooming school and is going to be starting a pet grooming business. She wants to “practice” on Casper. Casper likes being shaved so we figured what the hell. She said he might look funny after but he can’t look any funnier than he does when I do it, I mean hell, I haven’t been to pet grooming school! I cannot be trusted to cut hair. I do cut hubbys hair, but his is really easy so it doesn’t count.

I’m really nervous about the band thing tonight, actually, I’m having some serious second thoughts about it. I just, I don’t know. I want to do it, but I don’t want to do it. Also, they’re really into outings and stuff and I don’t want to be a part of their stupid golf outings and holiday parties. But if I avoid everything outside of rehearsals and concerts I’ll be seen as anti-social, AS ALWAYS. There’s some other stuff I saw on the website I’m not sure about either. I think I’m going to say fuck it and focus my energy on making another CD in time for Christmas, they’d make excellent Christmas presents for my family members. 🙂

Hubby was talking to his dad last night about refinancing our house. Ugh, we really need to do this but I’m not looking forward to going through the process. Luckily refinancing is easier than a first mortgage but still. Hubby told his dad all the numbers, I was cringing when he started adding up amounts and telling HIS DAD, god forbid anyone knows how much we owe everyone, lol. His dad ran the numbers and gave us what he thought would be our new mortgage total. If he’s right it will save us a few hundred dollars a month, we’ll have all our debts rolled into the house and we’ll have enough to fix the roof. I HOPE this goes well, nothing would make me happier than paying off and cutting up most of my credit cards and being mostly debt free by 23. 🙂 If things go really well we might even be able to afford a new car, but only if we can pay off the current loan on the Accent. We sooooo need a bigger car, like a small SUV or something, not one of those crazy big things, but like a Santa Fe or something.

I need a hair cut. I HATE getting my hair cut. I haven’t decided where I should get it cut, do I go to the place I went last time or do I go to supercuts. I don’t like the way the lady that did my hair last time cut it exactly, it’s okay but it’s not quite what I was looking for. It’s starting to look shaggy though so I have to do something with it soon. My hair grows way too fast so I might get it cut a lot shorter this time. I went with a longer crop last time. I might see if they can thin my bangs and make them choppier too. I’ll figure out exactly how I want it someday.

*looks around* Anyway. Maybe I should get back to work.

Being debt-free is a pipe dream for me: Student loans, mortgage, student loans, taxes, student loans, and did I mention student loans???? I hope you can get a replacement of your decoration!
