Birthday freebies

Every week at work, I scout for freebies and samples. My 2 favorite places to look are
mysavings & shop4freebies. Both sites are great and do not require 3 party participation! I love these free samples, they're awesome for packing for trips and trying new products too.

Well since my birthday is right around the corner, I decided to look for birthday freebies and there's a site called freebirthdaytreats. Check it out ;-]

Life is good, Jack and I plan to do some organizing over the weekend. Just to decide what we absolutely cannot live without and what can go into storage. Personally I dont want ANY of my things in storage but *grumbles* I hafta be fair to Jack who goes batty when he feels crowded. Me, I grew up boating on Papa's sailboat so being in tiny/cluttered places do not bother me.

Only 1 more week to go and then I am off to Maine...

Only in NY!

Taken at 23rd st & 5th Ave, only 107 blocks south of where I live :-]

Quest for Fire

Last night Szymanski and I watched Quest For Fire, a 1982 movie that deals with a small group of cavemen who have to go and gather some fire once their tribe is attacked and their fire was stolen. Very well done movie. The best caveman movie ever! Lots of nudity, violence and sex, yay! I liked how the movie was very primate like and the way they had the actors perform was almost funny at times. If you have a hankering to watch something other than that annoying Geico commericial "its so easy a caveman can do it" crap then rent this one. I love how at the end it was the WOman who saved the day!

Bleah its raining again. I hope the sun comes out a little this weekend so I can enjoy Ellie's pool? And tmw night a bunch of us are going to a Mexican restaurant in Brooklyn for Deaf Appreciation Night where deafies can perform and I will be taking photos for the hostess name Mandy, a really sweet terp I met a few weeks ago.

Saturday night at 7pm is Viable's live internet showing of their gameshow "Are You Sure?" Tune it for that!!! I dont think it will be as good as Deaf Idol but I am just thrilled that Deaf Nation is continuing its quest for excellent entertainment for us deAfies!!!

I wee wee for wii

I have been using my wii fit board the past few days and boy am I working out!!! Last night I "jogged" around the wii island for 20 minutes. The really weird thing is everytime I use the wii, it tells me I gained weight. Granted I am using it at night time after working all day so that's probably what it is but its still depressing when I see the weight scale going up. Jack told me to get an accurrate weight reading to do it every morning, so maybe I will start doing that??? Then go to work, then exercise after work.

Life is good, been editing my movie Paws. And just enjoying Jack's company. Yesterday we watched a movie The Day The Earth Stood Still, pretty good but the ending was weak. I plan to watch the original to see which is better?

This Friday I will see a Deaf show at Canteena, I am looking forward to that. Then spending the night at my friend Ellie's for the weekend of swimming, grilling and just chilling.

Caption Action 2

Pls take a moment to check out this link and write to your local government representative about 21st Century Communications & Video Accessibility Act of 2009 (H.R. 3101). Basically this Act is to provide closed captioning for ALL online videos. We Deafies don't want to be left behind!

Many thanks ahead of time!

"money is not...

the most important thing in the world. Love is. Unfortunately I love money!!!"

Argh I am frusturated this month because $$$ is so tight. Its ironic because one would think graduating with an MA would assure me finacial security but that won't start till the Fall when I am working 3 jobs. I am soooo sick of thinking about $$$ and the lack of thereof. I have decided to have $ deducted from my future paychecks so that when next summer rolls around, I don't have to be so stressed about rent, etc etc..

Not much else is new, working the same old same old. Looking forward to going to Maine next month for a week to see Ronnie. I will be working at a Deaf literacy camp, yay! Plus I will attend their DPHH as well so I am hoping for a photo with me and their DPHH host. And at the end of the month, to see my folks back home for a week or more. I will celebrate my birthday with Nancy. I've requested a lemon cake with raspberry frosting which Mom plans to bake me and Nancy wants an ice cream cake. It will be FUN!

Meanwhile back on the ranch... I have been enjoying Jack's company so much lately. We haven't fought once! If things start to get "heated" we simply agree to disagree or change the topic. The time apart has done wonders and has made us both appreciate the other more than ever before. Today he had on this business suit for a job interview he went to, hmm hmph, yummy! He looked so fine! Reminds me of that song I peformed way back at MSSD about a Boy from NYC

Oo ah oo ah oo oo, Kitty (me)
Tell us about the boy From New York City
Oo ah oo ah come on, Kitty Tell us about the boy From New York City

The 2nd time around

MUCH BETTER!

Everything with Jack just feels better. Having
him back in my life makes me a happier person.
I am realizing how much I do love him and it
feels good.

There was no weirdness or strangeness. It was
as if I had come home myself. When my ex & I
were separated by 2.5 months it was awkward
the 1st few hours when we re-united. But with
Jack I didn't have any of that. I was actually
surprised bc I hadn't seen him in 7 months!
He wasn't. Jack is different but the same. He's
come back a calmer more peaceful person. I am
so loving this! He's on the same page with me
on important details of our lives and that too
has me deliriously happy. We're communicating
and we're just more at ease than ever before.
Its like all the old conflicts are just that, OLD
and swept under the rug. We both aren't
interested in living in the past but rather in
the 'NOW' *Thank you Osho* or make plans
for our future :]

I will say having been apart all these months
sucked! But they served many purposes and in
the long run, we're gonna be what we wanted to
be all along. We just didn't know how back then.
We always had the right ingredients but we didn't
have the measurements all figured out yet ;}

Absents does indeed make this heart of mine
grow fonder.

My Jack Rabbit has returned!

Yay, my man came home today and he
looks GOOD! And by good, I mean HOT!
He lost weight, new clothes, tanned = Hottie!
And the best part of it all, he's MINE!

We probably won't go out much this weekend.
Other than tmw night he'll be at his mothers
and me with friends but the rest of the weekend
I doubt we'll leave the apt vicinity.

When I came home to find him waiting for me
*I had an appt earlier today that I couldn't miss,
otherwise I would've been home waiting for
him* So when I !Pah! saw him with my own
eyes! I threw my arms around him and
buried my face into his neck, happily so.
And I was so overcome that I actually
cried a little. Not sad or happy crying
but more like relief that the separation
is OVER.

Anyways I wanted to take a moment to post
on my blog before I disappear into the WE
mode, rather than the I. And to let the
world to know I am over the moon with
my Sweet's homecoming!

So Jack when you actually get a moment by
yourself (he's in the shower now), and get a
chance to read this,
"Welcome Home!"
