Does this bother anyone else or is it just me? Seriously, you’re Bobbi Brown Cosmetics, have some class…fix the gap in her teeth or airbrush for Christ’s sake! I HATE when they do that! I know everyone doesn’t have perfect teeth, but since you’re gonna photoshop it anyway, why not take the extra 10 seconds to fix that! Its the first thing I noticed.
Sorry Jess, I already did that meme! So I’m posting a new one I saw and haven’t done yet:

Like right now.
I just got done making some of the most yummiest salsa. ever.
Is it making your mouth water yet? Don’t be jealous.
(And a super-duper thank you to Pioneer Woman for the Photoshop actions. Now there is absolutely no excuse for my pics to look less-than-perfect!)
Here’s what I did (in case you’re having a brain fart and need some direction):
1 purple onion
1 poblano pepper (I like these cause they aren’t too hot and give it nice flavor)
1 green pepper
1 red pepper
I did the above in a food processor to save time 
4 regular tomatoes
6 Roma tomatoes
1 yellow tomato (those buggers are super expensive so I only bought one!)
3 small limes
1 head of cilantro
salt and pepper to taste
Red wine vinegar to taste
That’s it! Its really good, now, if only I had really, really fresh ingredients from someone’s garden!

So, I found another house I like. Do I like it as much as the first? Well, its totally different than the first, and it needs less work, and I like it just fine.
Now, this weekend my sister and mom went to see two houses with me. The second one was this one, and my brother went along. After he sees the house, he decides its “cavernous” and he doesn’t like his room. Now, you have to know my brother to understand this, but lets just say he’s extremely negative about just about everything, and he likes to bitch a lot about things he doesn’t want to contribute to, and he always knows more about whatever it is you’re talking about…even if he’s only read one book on it…or my favorite, looked it up on Wikipedia. But I digress. He NOW decides that its not close enough to the freeway, its not the style of house he would buy, he’s not sure how long he’s staying in Cleveland…yadda yadda. Now, let me remind you he just told me less than two weeks ago (before I put the offer on the other house!) that the area was just fine, and he planned on staying 5 years, and he loved living in basements. (The room I offered him wasn’t even in the basement, but of course, he didn’t like that one either).
So, I can afford to get the house without him, but it will be tight. Do I get the house and try to find a roommate, or will I be committing financial suicide? That is the question of the day.
I’m sure my realtor has had about enough of the indecisiveness! The house is in good condition, is completely renovated, hardwood throughout. Cavernous my ass…
Now I have to go live in a crappier, not-my-dreamhouse, house.
GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!!!
If you haven’t figured it out, those bastards came in above asking price and STOLE MY HOUSE.
I’m very unhappy now 
So the bank got back to us today. They are calling both buyers back for their “best offers”. Um HELLO that was my best offer! I have nothing else to give them except my right leg and my yarn stash! This isn’t looking good. Hopefully I’ll get their decision tomorrow sometime. Ya know, I’m gonna be heartbroken if I don’t get this house
Do you ever wake up just craving something else? Well this morning I did. I woke up craving San Francisco. It happens. It happens to me a lot lately. I just wake up remembering the city and the last time I was there and just feel sad that I haven’t been back lately. I miss it there. A lot.
Some of you filled out the meme I left below. Nice to know people are still reading my blog!
Here’s what I’ve found:
No one lives around a Sonic. Considering my blog-friends live all over the US, where the hell are all the Sonics located and why do they have to tease us with their commercials if we can’t find them!?
We can’t do push ups or chin ups. Thank goodness they didn’t ask about sit ups!
Our favorite hobby is overwhelmingly knitting - DUH.
We drink a lot of coffee and tea. Funny, no one but me drinks green smoothies LOL.
We worry a lot about money.
No one really likes sleeping on satin sheets.
Most would only want to be pirates if Jack Sparrow was around.
No one seemed to have any cool sheets as a kid.
