evile: hi!
SkyeDS: how do :) was trip good? sineater thought so.
evile: Yup, we had a good visit with everyone.
SkyeDS: sineater came home more reassured.
evile: good.
evile: It actually turned out to be a mostly-pretty day, too. We got
some rain in Houston, but not too bad.
SkyeDS: was absolutely gorgeous here. Woke up early in the am to
heavy downpour, may have cursed in my sleep, went back to sleep, woke
up to nothing but blue sky and sun
evile: nice :)
SkyeDS: met some members of the Georgetown Sheriff's Posse last night
who invited us to be in a parade
evile: cool!
SkyeDS: that is the same weekend as the equestrian college bryn gwlad
is joint hosting with tir medoin (our shire)
evile: oh...
SkyeDS: Karen the bitchdragon told me my job at our joint event is to
stay out of bridget's way
SkyeDS: if Laura goes, makes decision tough
SkyeDS: if she doesn't, I'm going to the parade
SkyeDS: that ought to be far enough away from bridget, ya think?
evile: there ya go :)
SkyeDS: if it looks bad that the only equestrians in the shire don't
go to the shire's cohosted eq event, oh, fucking, well
evile: *nod*
evile: The rental car company hasn't called me about the bumper...I
wonder if they'll just add a charge to my card.
SkyeDS: what happened to the bumper
evile: I bonked the curb or something when I was backing up to turn
around
evile: Sweetie got the dent out (stupid plastic piece of crap bumper!)
but it's still scuffed.
SkyeDS: hopefully it will turn ok regardless
evile: that's why god made plastic.
evile: I'd rather spend my money on fun...but sometimes shit happens.
SkyeDS: nods
evile: I think even if it costs as much as my leased car bumper, I'll
still be able to work my plan of getting out of plastic debt by the
end of this year.
SkyeDS: I was getting there, until...oh well.
evile: yeah...shit happens. It's good to have the plastic safety net
in place, always sad to have to use it, but good that it's there.
SkyeDS: now that I have a new lease signed I can file suit.
evile: *nod* cool!
evile: your friends seemed very nice; I hope they will make good
tenants.
SkyeDS: hopefully
evile: You've already had the "live frog for breakfast" tenants, so
nothing that can happen after them could possibly be that bad :)
SkyeDS: I can tell right now that the park is going to give us grief
SkyeDS: how fucking dare they after two of their handpicked tenants
were so shitty
evile: Seems they'd be happy to get their money and have some decent
people living there?
SkyeDS: too logical
evile: well, I hope they aren't too crappy to you or your new tenants.
SkyeDS: one lease signed by one person and they want two application
fees.
evile: that's ridiculous!
SkyeDS: I told sineater that, after he already paid them before telling
me, and calling me after the fact to ask me to put money in his acct
to cover it
evile: ouch.
SkyeDS: and the electric cmpany is going to give grief because the
last tenants left owing
evile: crap!
SkyeDS: first of all, nancy and the park can kiss my fat happy
italian ass
SkyeDS: secondly, I will get what I want, petty bureaucracy with the
coa or not
evile: you go girl!
SkyeDS: the honey went out the window a long time ago
SkyeDS: if I have to use vinegar so be it, right now that's just fine
and dandy by me
evile: *nod*
evile: My LJ friend rei_kun is coming in to Austin on Friday. I think
he and Nikiyoy  might be interested in each other.. I'd like to meet him,
but I dont' want to get in the way if they want to go play.
SkyeDS: nodnod
evile: Depending on what time he gets in, maybe we'll do dinner and
then I can say I've got to get up early for Yoga, so bye now... which
is actually true. I do have to get up for Yoga on Saturday.
SkyeDS: excellent idea :)
SkyeDS: last two people I matchmade are engaged to be married
SkyeDS: were supposedly two of my best friends
SkyeDS: and now hate my guts for no reason I can understand at all
evile: wow...that kinda sucks. I mean, great that they found true
love or wahtever, but no reason to be ugly to you in the process.
SkyeDS: I"m not as surprised by him (he was an ex)
SkyeDS: as I was by her
SkyeDS: I was her best friend and carried all sorts of her shit for
her for more than five years
evile: that really sucks.
SkyeDS: she hates her family, is going to tell everyone who loves her
to go fuck themselves, marry him and go off to New Zealand
evile: poor thing
SkyeDS: smart.
SkyeDS: why do women do that?
evile: no clue. It's sad to watch.
SkyeDS: completely remove themselves from all the support systems
necessary to rescue one from bad situations?
evile: it's a pattern in abusive relationships that the abuser
influences the person to remove themselves physically and emotionally
from their support systems. And somehow end up thinking it was their
idea & not the abusers.
evile: I mean, I think there is a natural tendency to get all "NRE"
and spend the majority of your free time with your new sweetie, and
that's normal, but abusive relationships just push that one or two
steps further
SkyeDS: he's older than I am, and she's Kaleon's age.
evile: ick.
evile: Another pretty picture for you:

SkyeDS: :) tyty
evile: Here is his rendition of Gemini. I like the purple eyes with
moon & stars :)
http://www.erte.com/zodiac/gemini.html

SkyeDS: love purple :)
evile: *nod* I know that :P
evile: There are several galleries in the French Quarter that carry
erte sculpture...OMG, too gorgeous for words.
SkyeDS: :D
evile: It's been entirely too long since my last visit to New
Orleans. Now that Mardi Gras is over, and before it gets too hot,
would be a good time to go.
SkyeDS: yep
evile: Your schedule for Gulf Wars is probably pretty tight, but you
should wave at 'er on the way by, anyway :)
SkyeDS: one of these days will take the children for a vacation there
evile: wouldn't recommend driving the horse trailer anywhere in the
Quarter....narrow streets & lotsa potholes. But other than that, fun.
You could ride in Audubon park :)
SkyeDS: I did research into horse hotels/bnbs a while back
SkyeDS: but don't remember what I found
SkyeDS: except I found private stuff and state/national stuff
evile: I know there's a riding stable in Audubon park, but I don't
know if they board or anything like that. Used to see people in the
whole english riding getup in the park all the time.
SkyeDS: like hermann park and central park
evile: *shrug* I wouldn't know, I've never been to those.
SkyeDS: hermann park = houston, central park = nyc
evile: Like I said...never been to either one.
evile: Might have driven thru that houston one yesterday...we got
lost.
SkyeDS: what meant was, stables there, people riding in park
evile: *nod*
evile: There must be riding stables in Central Park, I can't imagine
anone trucking their animals through NY to go riding there...
evile: then again, I can't imagine driving any type of vehicle in new
york city for any reason. I can think of far more pleasant ways I'd
like to die, thanks.
SkyeDS: we drove to long island, stayed there, took train into town
SkyeDS: without children of course
evile: yeah
evile: For me New Orleans is strolling the quarter, art & antique
galleries, drinking, eating....nothing horses or birds would be much
interested in.
SkyeDS: there's an older gentleman takes three cockatoos (big ones)
around town with him
evile: *nod*
evile: My next trip is going to be to Chinati hot springs & Marfa
lights. I'm thinking March 25-27th or around there.
evile: aww! J-Law sent me an email, Shane sent her flowers at work and
the card said: "to the love of my life and to the woman whose beauty
outshines these roses."
SkyeDS: likes him, likes him lots :)
evile: I do too. He is a sweetheart.
evile: I'm just so happy for her :)
SkyeDS: if I had a HP wand all my friends would have relationships
like that
evile: me too.
evile: J-Law says: I called him to thank him for the flowers, and I
said, "so, I figured out who the love of your life is, but who is
that other chick?"

SkyeDS: rofl
evile: She's so funny. She and Shane laugh together a lot. I think
that is pretty much the key to a good relationship. Find the one who
makes you laugh, because everything else is gonna go south
eventually. :P
SkyeDS: I completely agre
SkyeDS: +e
evile: :)
SkyeDS: have said before, am sucker for someone who makes me laugh
SkyeDS: not hard, though, I'm easily amused
evile: That's a good trait, too, IMHO.
evile: It's good to be able to look around and find humor in whatever
situation you're currently in. :P
evile: or at least realize it'll be funny and make a good story
LATER, once you're done being pissed off/inconvenienced/embarassed :)
evile: well, time for me to take off. I hope you and sineater have a nice
Valentine's day together :)
SkyeDS: wind to your wings :)
evile: *hugs*
SkyeDS: :D
