hrm

the rate i folded over the fabric over means the crotch area will be reeeally narrow… but it will have such a neat finish! i think i’ll give it a try this time and if i don’t like it i just won’t do it next time

Yaaaaaayyy it’s fixed it’s fixed it’s fixed!!! maintenance guy lives a couple of apartment blocks away and he replaced the thing and let me take pictures of it and he had the snazziest tool bag 

we talked a bit about possible causes and he doesn’t know what happened but he’s SEEN it before and he talked a bit about how sometimes ppl dont report it and they move out leaving behind an apartment with all sorts of broken things

at one point he said he put on his hat ‘cos his hair was really messy and he didn’t want to scare me and have me not let him in because it was scary. he’s a big black dude. that was an interesting moment.

anyways i got his name and gonna remember it if i see him around some more

oh my fucking god

last friday i called the sleep disorders center to set up an appointment

and they’re like

we dont’ have the insurance forms!

so i have to hang up, and call the health center insurance

and then the sleep disorder center is like

we dont have the doctor’s notes!

and i hang up, and get in the doctor’s notes, way too late for me to call back so i have to wait until today

and because i hate the phone so much i waited until an hour ago

and now they tell me

we don’t have the order form!

and i’m like

?????????????????????????????????????????? COULDNT YOU HAVE JUST TOLD ME IN ONE SHOT ALL THE FORMS YOU NEEDED SO I COULD TICK IT OFF AND NOT HAVE TO KEEP CALLING IN AND WAITING ON YOUR STUPID LINE LISTENING TO AWFUL MUSIC THAT HAS BEEN BADLY RECORDED AND MANGLED ON YOUR SYSTEM SO HIGH NOTES SOUND REALLY SCRATCHY SO INSTEAD OF BEING SOOTHING MY NERVES JUST GET EVEN MORE HIGHLY STRUNG OMG and apparently normally the health center is good with this but they just had a staff changeover

now i have called the front desk who has no idea what’s going on so i have left the insurance a voice mail message except I put no stock in voice messages and the fact that so many of my voice mail calls never get returned is the main reason why i personally do not have voicemail 

but now i realized i’ve been holding onto a copy of the order form

and i could conceivably get it to them myself EXCEPT I DONT HAVE A FUCKING FAX MACHINE AND THIS IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS WHICH GETS PHOTOCOPIED SO THEY CAN SEND IT OFF FOR ME

I AM SO FUCKING PISSED OFF RIGHT NOW

and you know, i could have tracked down a fax machine and made all the necessary follow-up calls except THEY COULD HAVE GIVEN ME SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS FOR THINGS TO SEND IN AND I COULD HAVE MADE SURE FOR MYSELF rather than calling back and forth, back and forth, and I NEED to have this sleep test scheduled to happen before I leave in August and I am just generally about ready to cry because i hate. the phone. SO. SO. MUCH. like, i would rather literally walk to places to make appointments in person rather than talk on the phone 

phones are the worst

oooh! how hard is it to make your own underwear? have you ever made a bra?

I don’t understand this question ;_; I thought you knew I can make bras?!

For posterity’s sake (and for all new followers) HERE IS JHA’S UNDERWEAR TAG 

warning for boobies on the internet!

Maybe later I’ll go to JoAnn’s and see what they have for elastics. 1/4” soft elastics are good for making pannies. Also I kinda want one of those magnetic pin bowls because reasons. 

Eeee I found milk powder in the grocery store!!! 
I’m excited about this because 1kg of milk powder can probably last me WAY longer than 500ml of milk that I’ve been buying from the grocery store, AND it won’t spoil so quickly if I take too long finishing it off! My dad used to send me MILO powder and milk powder (FERNLEAF!) as part of my care package so I am excited about being able to try milk powder from another country. 
Sez on this can that this is a product of Mexico and distributed here in California. 
Huzzah!

Aw man! I passed my 20,000th post without noticing! Dammit! 

what can one do with a boxfull of packing peanuts? I really don’t want to have to throw them away if I don’t have to.

hrm that’s the second time this week i’ve seen an opossum on my patio! i wonder whether it’s the same one and what it’s looking for… 

now that i’ve sent in that final assignment, the game plan is to:

  • nap
  • clear all the papers
  • vacuum the carpet floors
  • sweep the kitchen and bathroom floors
  • clean the kitchen
  • take out trash
  • dispose of this big box with packing peanuts altho it burns my soul to get rid of something so obviously useful
  • continue reading Mindscape
  • get to making Nisi’s bra
