Bathroom "fun"


I have been up since Tuesday, it now being Wednesday (has anyone ever realized how hard wednesday is hard to spell?). So it is almost the weekend yay~ Yep the weekend, what big plans I have... Non really. I may have to get a plumber for the toilet again. About 2 months back the bathroom flooded for one week strait that involved my flatmate and I using work bathrooms and poring bottle after bottle of de-clogger down the drain. When we got the plumier in after days of near panic, he found bolts and cement from when the new hot water heater was put in. I will always remember that work bathroom.

Still Alive kinda

I am sitting in my flat in the kinda Muscat aria. That is all I am going to say. The net here is not that grate, 99% dew to the fact that we do not have net and just a little stick from nawras that is 2OR for 48 hours of unlimited internet. Sweet eh, but its kinda (meaning really) slow dew to the flat I am in. My old cell I would have to sit by the front door of the flat to get decent reception hahaha. Lucky that on Eid I got a new one. I think this Eid was the best one i have ever had. It was my first one in Oman, and I hope it will not be my last. Oman is a really nice country. The food is a meat lovers paradise, I have never eaten so much meat as I have here. Oh my gosh the Eids. I was eating the best lamb shuwa for like one week striate for every meal (no joke, the flat fridge is tinny and all we could fit in was the meat and rice) . We would have eaten it longer but friends noticed that my flat mate and I where only eating that so they tuck us out to eat something ells to brake it up. So can anyone guess what it was? Anyone? Yep you guessed it! It was Shawarma~ Anyone in Oman will tell you the thing to get for fast food is shawarma. I have eaten so much shawarma that we now have a running inside joke at the flat. Shaworma is said in a tone between "I once upon a time remembered liking this" and "I wonder if I add up all the shaworma I have eaten, how many lambs that would be?". At summer camp one year a long way back some consular added up how much bacon was ingested that summer. The answer was Two and a half Bob's of bacon (Bob is a 300+ pound cook with a temper and big knife). Where was I? Ah yes Eid. It was grate. The weather was cooling down and feels like it is starting to pick up a little just as I had gotten used to wherein little sweaters under my abaya. Not so bad, the way I see it that means I can start swimming in the ocean again soon. There is this one beach I have been wanting to try out for so long. There is even a big crater that is filled with water that seeped into it from the ocean that looks cool. So much to try and see and do in the next month. I hope I can fit it all in.

Can anyone say Oman?

Ok so for the last 2 months I have been MIA, Lots has happened. I was in the UAE and now I am in Oman. Got a nice little apartment with a rocking flatmate. No hot water yet but soon Inshallah. A friend is taking me tonight to check things out, plus get a bed frame and dresser. I am ok without the bed frame. I just really would like a dresser and some rope so i can make an makeshift hang-line. I do not have net full time yet just borrowed someone's stick for 48 hours to communicate and watch as much tv from the USA as possible through it all. Have lots to wiki too. Things never seem to tern out how you picture it will. I defiantly did not see what my future may be. Ah so much to think about. So I will try and do some blogging. may have to pre-write everything. should be fun. But got to go for now, the nice lady that come once a week is here. Have a good day all.

Packing for the UAE time



Ok so I have not posted in a month. Ramadan is almost over and I did not kill anyone dew to low Blood sugar but nearly did a few times. I am unable to fast long hours dew to my sugar levels going all over the place and taking me with it (there is a medical reason). So here is a run down on what has happened in the last 2 months. 1. Got my plane ticket with Pixie. 2. Engagement broke off (yay, no really its a good thing) 3. Started planing Sisters Iftaars that got passed over to my friend that is way better at it then I am (thank you so much for grabbing the rains) 4. Quite my Job (*dance*) 5. Running around like a person that leaves everything to the last min.
So here I am sitting on the good sofa with my cat beside me (on my clothing, everything needs a little hair) Hoping that my mom does not come into the room (cat + good sofa = slow death) and waiting for the next load of laundry to be put into the washer (only 20 left). So I have stuff that I would like to take with me spread from one side of the house to another. My travel towel has a Pic of a mug of beer on it (could try passing it off as ginger-al....yep that may work) witch is totally going to be a hit there (with a stick.... hahahah sorry vary bad joke). I do not really feel like I'm about to leave for 6 months yet. I feel that I'm heading off but it has not fully hit me. Unlike the cheese I ate today.... brb ........Ok back. so where was I....meh Im to lazy right now to read back. I just Switched in a load of laundry and started drying another. Grabbed some of my shoes that I'm trying to pic witch ones to bring. I am bringing my bronze snake Sandals, Blue sequin converse, black and red tartan underground high tops, and Silk knee high Ed hardy tie ups for those special occasions hehehe... I will where onto the plane my Velcro shark vans. Totally normal shoes selection ~(0.o)~ I have my legging's all ready ranging from bright red to the tame pho jeans and not to skip the tartan ones too. Its 7 in total. I have my got my corsets picked out and silk slip dresses lined up. One to many pares of jeans (gosh to bad the red ones where not in my size purple is nice though). Lots of sox's and undies (do you think 30 pairs is to much? I like variety what can I say? Oh I saw these silk 40's style ruffle panties today that where so so cute that would match my bra but held off buying them cuz I need to keep my money for things I really need). My mom went to London Drugs and I do not know what she is thinking but got me 6 box's of tampons to go on top of the other 4 that I already had (I so do not need over 300, that movie was good). So now that I have freaked out every person that reads my blog or stumbles upon it i should continue with the packing and cleaning cuz pixie is dropping things off over here in the next few days. Hope you all have a grate last 10 days of Ramadan!

Note: that is my mess and the wonderful kitty next to me is Tabby.
