So like I thought I’d come here and bitch about the kitchen cabinets. Yeah that’s right- that’s what got us to fucking finally write. Actually no that totally ain’t it– we’ve been so totally needing to write a shit load of crap err okay stuff really. I like to say crap to crap that really means stuff cuz stuff is sooo Julie. When I totally mean crap I say shit unless of course I got to tone it down and be all chilled cuz it ain’t a place where I can say what I totally really mean.

So we’re taking a freaking break. And finally catching up here. Well a little anyway. So now I know everyone is dying to know what the hell we’ve been up to. Haha. Well at least I can say ya’ll would rather hear it all from me! Ha!

So our system has a boyfriend, Sean et al. I’m not into guys but he’s cool enough, well actually their system is cool enough. I still like my chics and still get to look and flirt and have fun if I ever get lucky! But okay so L.J. has a kid boyfriend in Sean’s system– L.S. It’s totally cute and they are totally appropriate for a kid crush deal. The adults are hooked up with Sean and the adults in their system. And our systems are all together or whatever. How the frick do you say all that? I mean like L.J. is so not big Sean’s girlfriend but L.J. is L.S.’s girlfriend. Sean is so not my boyfriend but what the hell I’m going along for the ride and am cool with it all as I like their system and well I got to cooperate and all that jazz and not be a bitch cuz I know I ain’t totally gonna get what I want cuz I didn’t get to luck out with my own fucking body in this world, dammit! But Sean et al are cool cuz I still get to have my fun with chics. So like it’s this weird ass thing where I’m cool with the whole “couples” thing and not gonna shit on that or anything but like Sean is just a friend or whatever and not my boyfriend but he is so Julie’s boyfriend. And like our system is committed to being “together” with their system. Weird to totally explain. A multiple relationship with a singleton is freaking crazy but add in two multiples and damn, all kinds of dynamics go on!

So that’s the biggest sudden and unexpected change in our world and it has kept things in a serial whirlwind for awhile now. We’re working on getting a handle on it all and balancing and all that jazz but between that and just regular life craziness and whew, it’s been exciting and exhausting and totally beyond words can say. I will say that the whole thing with Sean et al is “It’s alllll good.” Ha!

So I’ll let Julie and the Julies tell all about the story and how it all happened and whatever and anything else.

So now for my bitching about the kitchen cabinets. So they were like feeling gross to us even though they were like really “okay,” but we definitely had to clean the inside of the cabinets totally for sure before really comfortably putting stuff in them. So we go to do that and what the hell, we’ll wipe down the outside of them too. Well so we use a mixture of murphy’s oil soap and water. Well damn, what do ya know, the stain they put over the cabinets came right off and we totally weren’t using a serious scrubber or anything– hardly at all. So once it started coming off and looking like shit, well then we’ve had to scrub like hell to get the shit off. Cuz ya see it is so totally obvious to us that what they did to “prepare” our apt before we moved in was they slapped some stain over the existing cabinets and of course in order for stain to totally adhere you’re all supposed to strip and sand and all that jazz. So well now we’ve got lighter cabinets that feel cleaner but well, only one segment of them are done as we have a ton more to do and it fucking sucks cuz now it is so totally obvious of a difference– light cabinets versus darker cabinets. Damn even if we could get the OCD ones to chill out on the whole “started something must finish exactly the same way for all the other cabinets,” we can’t really look past the whole difference in color and tone and so have to clean the other cabinets. Damn it and we have a shit load of crap to do in this apt and it is a mess and damn I hope we can stay focused on it and get this shit done. Damn damn damn! It’s a damn shame we can’t be like other people and just do a general wipe down on the inside of the cabinets and light wipe down on the outside and be done with it. Oh no we got to mass deep clean so we can feel safe and comfortable or whatever the fuck it is that we need to do for some reason. I ain’t saying cleaning is bad it’s just like damn it fucking sucks when doing anything at all wipes us the fuck out and we’re still trying to maneuver around the apt with whatever pathway we can find. Crap.

Okay. Gotta go and get busy again. There’s of course a shit load more of crap to talk about and update and all that, but hey, this is a start.
