I know this is a long shot but my 30th birthday is coming up.
I'm kind of dreading it.
I know a lot of people already have stuff planned but I would love to hang out with those who want to spend some birthday time goodness with me!
August 9th-10th is the only weekend I have off in August (my birthday is the 13th). John and I were thinking of going up to Universal Studios for Saturday and then go to Saddleranch for dinner that evening. Sunday we don't have anything planned. If you would like to join us for one or the other or would like to suggest something else please let me know!

Here is something funny. We are still waiting on the house we are going to buy, it needs to turn into a short sale. But it's taking longer than normal.
WHY?
Because apparently INDY FUCKING MAC held the original mortgage. Can you say FUCKED UP? I knew ya could.
So we are in limbo right now. Thankfully my family is letting us stay with them until we get the house. Thank god for family. It's pretty sweet though because they have a pool and it's great for these hot summer days.
Quick thing about my health..... found out a month ago I had H. Pylori, a stomach bacteria that causes ulcers. I was put on a triple antibiotic regimen for ten days to kill the bacteria. The last day was July 3rd. July 4th I woke up with uncontrollable itching. Turns out I had a bad reaction to the amoxocillin part of the regimen. So my whole week vacation was spent itching like I had the chicken pox. FUN!
They put me on steroids for five days. I can't say it helped, I don't know. But I will say I'm ten pounds heavier now. Yeah, I can't win, heh.
Other than that everything in the land of Juju is just peachy. I'm just as in love (if not incredibly more so) with John as I was when we first started dating. Work is work, it's got it's ups and downs but it's a paycheck and who knows what will happen when the new hospital opens.
My only regret about the last couple months is that I haven't seen ANYONE except Johns friends. I miss my two best friends Roxymonoxcide and Ericallen. I feel like I've been letting them down with my holding pattern of life, but I know they understand and I love them that much more for it.
I promise as soon as we get the house and get settled we will throw a HUGE party and I will be Miss SocialJuju again.

So as most of my friends know I have been living with John for the last 6 months. It was has been a wonderful place but now we are looking for a new place to start out with the two of us. We have found it and now we are waiting on the bank to approve it. So for now it's back to crashing at my parents place until we finish escrow.
That said:
The lease is up at the end of June and we have to have all our stuff out of the main house by the end of this coming weekend.
I would love some help packing, moving, and disassembling some of the big stuff if anybody has some time. I'm not doing a traditional move, I'm putting everything into one of those PODS storage bins and then we're done. So it shouldn't be that bad.
So here's the plan. Saturday come on over, anytime after 10 am, Lend a hand for a while, and hang out, I'll fire up the grill one last time or get pizza or something too.
If you can't make it on Saturday I'll probably still be be doing stuff on Sunday too so if you cant' make it Saturday and want to help, please come on by.
The help will be much, much appreciated :-)
thanks !
let me know if you can lend a hand :-)
PM me and I will send you the address!

So the house we were bidding for just went up past our price range by ten grand. It's not losing the house that angers me it's the malpractice of the sellers realtor. The couple selling the house had their ignorant "realtor" daughter sell their house, so not only was it an emotional sell but the daughter didn't know the first thing about short sales and was stalling right and left to make things look better for her parents.
Needless to say, we won't be getting the house near the golf course. I want to punch their daughter in the face for stringing us along for 2 weeks.
There is another house we are looking at right now that is actually on the Van Nuys/ Sherman Oaks border. Family oriented neighborhood, very nice place. I could see myself liking this place...... once the termite infested walls were replaced and the bathrooms brought up to standard quality for use and the overly stained carpets replaced and the walls where teenage children wrote nasty words to each other painted over. Yeup, it's a real fixer upper, but with a lot of potential. This one is also a bank owned so there is no emotions attached to it, just the bottom line of dollars. With all the work that needs to be done on it I'm sure we can get a really good deal out of them. hopefully.
In other news, Lily our guinea pig is good, getting fatter! Still skiddish but that will change soon
My new nephew Ben is just as cute and adorable and hellish as my sister was when she was a baby, he is the spitting image so says my mother.
Wow, looking at this journal entry you can really see what's on my mind huh.
UPDATE: Termite house was bided past the asking price so we wont be able to afford it. We just have to keep looking at houses. :/ The first house with the inept realtor is still a possibility but we aren't holding our breath. LORD HELP US!

Yesterday at 4am my sister gave birth to my second nephew. BENJAMIN HAWKEYE SIDMAN!
Unlike his older brother (who has strawberry blonde hair) Ben was born with a shock of black hair and what looks like wolfman ears (meaning there is hair on his ears). He is cute though, weighing in at 8.5 pounds and 20.5 inches long. Compared to Jacks birth Ben is A BIG BOY!
After having a quick brunch and an Easter egg hunt for Jack we all drove over to the hospital to visit my sister and the new addition.
Funny story: On a whim I bought a onsie with pants and a hat for Ben that read MY FIRST EASTER. I mainly bought it because it has a bunny head hat and the pants were bunny slipper feet with a bunny tail on the butt, it was so cute. When I gave it to my sister she said, "I have no use for this Ben wont be born until after Easter!" I was kind of disappointed at my mistake, little did I know that I would be dead on! I should have started a birthday pool! Once I get some pics I will post them.

YAY! LEAP YEAR POST!
Everything is going well with moi. Practically living with John now. I go home once a week to get mail see parents play with my nephew, grab something I want from my room such and such. I like falling asleep to John working on his computer and waking up to him cuddling me. I used to ask my mom, "How do you know when it's 'the one'?" Her reply was always a simple, "You will know." I thought it was a cop out answer, boy was I wrong! We always say we are stupid for each other. Roxymonoxcide practically throws up rainbows and candy sprinkles when she sees us together.
heh.
Work is fine, my new boss is a good man but needs a lot of work on being an executive chef. Everyone tells me I should let him fail but I can't, I don't know why. Silly me.
I don't know what else to say, life is pretty good. I miss my friends hence going to dinner with everyone NEXT Friday. I can't wait!
Love to all!

What have I gotten myself into indeed. The most wonderful person ever coming into my life and making it magical.
Some of you met him at the Halloween party.
Some of you will meet him Saturday at Disneyland. His name is John, I met him at Spooky House this year. Truthfully..... he IS spooky house. It's kind of funny, it's kind of scary, it's mostly wonderful. I worry that we will run out of things to say, dead silence is awkward and I hate it, but that never seems to be the case. We have tons in common, odd things in common that make it that much more fun.
We are taking things extra slow, I want to build a friendship first and foremost. This is turning into something wonderful though, I can feel it. So can he. We will see!
In other news, my nose won't stop running. I wonder if it's the weather or if I am actually coming down with something. The 21st is my last day of work and then I have a full week or so off for a vacation. I need it, even with the extra days off I've been receiving (we needed to use some of my vacation house post haste or else I would have lost them) I still feel like I need more. I guess that is what happens when you work 60 hour weeks each week for five months straight. heh.
