so, star (pictured) is pregnant, and apparently now she’s very pregnant and there’s potentially EIGHT PUPPIES that could be born! her due date is nov. 9th. i really, really, want one of star’s puppies. of course, i guess jenny was bred like 2 weeks ago so that’s another litter that would be here soon, too, but puppies will be born on november 9th and there could be eight of them and that means we would get them the beginning of february!!! well, by them i mean one, but that’s not to say that i don’t want all eight puppies. because i do. so november 9th is the first date to get through…
i am going to lose my mind until that date, for serious.
see? i am ALREADY counting down the date!!!
in other, non-puppy-related news, we got tickets for the family to fly out here for the holidays last month at a really ridiculous good price (lucky!) and so now it’s getting the house ready until that happens. there’s a lot of work to do, and by the time my family is here we’re finally going to have two functioning bedrooms in the house. it’s going to be awesome.
now i just have to finish up my last fall class and get the house in order in terms of puppy proofing and party prep and getting ready for the family visit and hopefully my head won’t explode before the end of the year (but it’s likely).

LOOK AT ALL THESE RECORDS!!! LOOK AT THEM!!!
alex gave me a gift certificate for my birthday and then i had the PLAGUE OF DOOM! so we weren’t able to go to deja vu records in a million years and that cert was just burning a hole in my pocket.
today, after awesome dim sum with AR & her husband, we went with one of aragorn’s new coworkers (with the ridiculous name) and oh my god…SO AWESOME!
so unbelievably awesome! i love eleni so much, and the record store is literally the greatest place on earth. plus we got the WHOLE CRATE and the books and a selena live! last concert dvd as well!!! i couldn’t be happier. all i want to do is listen to records all day every day. plus, last weekend we hauled in 15 records from a combination of newbury comics’s vinyl sale and the (saddest) natick flea market (ever).

finally scraped together enough to purchase a bedroom set for our master bedroom, FINALLY! it wasn’t cheap, but it has been a long time coming that’s for sure. moving to this house has been fantastic and all that, but holy shit it’s been expensive. i’m not 100% sure how i’m going to pay it all of, but maybe now the house will be a little less empty.
still, very very expensive. and with the car still in the shop, i’m worried about being able to pay it all off plus i totally miss driving my car. i just want it to be ok.
if i think about it too much, i’m going to have a mega freak out.

today we tried to frolick to various things and were generally shut down left and right, but the one thing that went well (aside from brunch) was my new tattoo!!! hooray! it’s finally here!!
so, i’m starting a cat lady sleeve (though it’s really going to be a full sock, instead because i’m working on my left leg now)! and this is the very first kitty of the bunch. i’m not sure what else i’m going to add, but super duper happy with how this little guy turned out. also SO FLUFFY!!! so fluffy i want to die!! is it not the cutest little calico kitty in the world?! IS IT NOT!!?!?!? so cute!
also, i thoroughly enjoy the fact that she’s currently crushing a little cricket to bits with massive kitty destruction! because what are kitties good at if not destruction?
also, super adorable while accomplishing it! my tattoo artist this go-round was the most talented elize nazelie, from empire tattoo in somerville. she’s going to be working on the rest of my cat lady leg and i couldn’t be happier. i’m also venturing into the world of color finally and i think it’s going to be great. finally…finally!
i’m so super thrilled! also, not painful at all! it was easy peasy! i can’t wait for more tattoos :)

we randomly happened upon a newbury comics vinyl sale today and it was glorious!!! buy two (ANY TWO!) and get one free! that is like, oh my god that is fantastic. unfortunately, we were out in stoughton and it was the most dismal vinyl section in the world. at this point, i am positive that i own more records than the store had available to sell! and as you can see, i pretty much cleaned them out of all of their good music, anyway.
i grabbed: flight of the concords, the ramones, the beastie boys, wu-tang clan, AC/DC and daft punk. excellent! i still much prefer going to deja vu records. not only are the prices a million times better, but you’re buying from a place that actually cares about vinyl and quality music. newbury comics maybe started out that way in spirit, or intent, but they have fallen way, way, way by the wayside. it’s a shame, but oh well. someday they’re going to be 100% hot topic lite, and it’s going to be a sad, sad day.
but enough about that, RECORDS! we haz them! and they are amazing and awesome and i just kind of want to spend all day listening to them all and lying in a heap and just loving music. because that sounds glorious.
