so after spending late afternoon and evening with our friends from ireland i found out a couple things.. 1) they smoke more often than i thought and i dont mean cigarettes and 2) fluffy ducks are amazingly delicious. and im not talking about the cute things that swim around in ponds and quack. im talkin about the drink. i think the name is wrong tho. it might be called the fluffy dog.. but after four or five who really cares lol.. its got baileys in it and umm.. other alcoholic shit and ice all blended together. i dont usually drink with my ma.. but since we had company and they drink, she had a couple herself. i think she should do it more often. shes definitely more fun to be around after shes had a few.
aside from from the new found knowledge about the smoking and the new drink recipe, it was a good day. im slowly learning how to crochet. its a bit tricky at first, but i got the hang of it.. kinda. im still confused on some of the maneuvers.. but ill figure it out eventually. i will make a scarf by the time im done learning.. or maybe ill just call it a scarf regardless of what it looks like lol.the origami has kind of taken a backseat to the crocheting.. both are a bit difficult for me and not just cause of steps involved in doing it, but because of how much you have to use your fingers to do all the little details involved. its just slightly difficult to grasp the yarn or the paper sometimes. but im working my way thru learning both regardless. i can totally do them both. it might take me months to finish a scarf or whatever origami design i decide to make.. but i dont care. itll make it that much better and itll be that much more of an accomplishment for me when its all said and done.
i think i wrote in a previous blog that im nervous about getting my new wheelchair. im not so much any more. ive been researching them the past couple of nights and i like what im seeing. my chair is cool enough as is, but its also about ten years old or so. some of the features on the newer ones are the same as mine.. but the electronic set up of it is different.. and so much fuckin cooler. so im pretty excited about the new one now lol.
as for tomorrow… more crocheting, more visiting, more drinking (probably), smoking (hopefully) and who knows what else! ;D
