as you may have noticed in the sidebar info thingy (or in my AIM info), i'm sick of my AIM sn. if you have any ideas for a new, fitting sn, please leave your suggestions in the comments. if i get a few good ones, i'll set up a poll and y'all can vote.

in other news, my life has been invaded by itchies. i'm not itchy myself, but Zack's got poison ivy or something like it, and Mudge got bit by something and came down with a bad case of hives. they're both doing better now, but itchies suck. poor Mudge was up all night the other night, rolling around on the carpet and pacing around cuz he was so itchy. he looked lumpy. we've been giving him Benadryl, which he doesn't seem to enjoy; he runs and hides whenever mom tries to give him some (he won't even take it in peanut butter anymore). Zack's still pretty itchy tho and that makes me sad. :*(

i made dinner tonight since its mothers day and all, i made veggie stir fry and brown rice and blueberry crisp, it was very very yum.

my dad is leaving for Maryland i think a week from Monday to help his mom move to some rich old people's apartment complex or something and to get the stuff we decide we want (she lives in a huuuuuuge house with all kinds of old shit in it and she's letting family members take their pick of everything she's not taking with her). i have no idea what i might want, other than dishes. actually, i'd love to have the table in her den, its kinda big, round and short with a gorgeous carved top, but she's probly taking it or it could already be claimed by my uncle, so who knows. my dad is supposed to call when he's there to let us know what's available so we can decide. i guess i'll find out what me and Zack might need for our future apartment, other than dishes and stuff....honestly i'd be happy sitting on milk crates, and most of my grandmother's furniture is fancy antique-y stuff, way too fancy for me (tho i bet i could make some money off it later....is that an evil thought??) i could ask for the creepy mountain lion rug in her basement, its a skin complete with claws, tail, and snarling head. creeped me the fuck out when i was little. would be fun to have for the sole purpose of freaking others out, especially others who are under the influence of drugses, but i don't think i should ask for it....plus it would kinda clash with my whole vegetarian animal rights image. oh well.
