Oooo

I need to go home first and measure my bedroom -- I'd still like room to walk around after it goes in :P

Well, the date went... ultimately well. I'm not really going to go into what went -wrong- towards the beginning, because it was all made right and then some, and if you run into me I'll probably be effervescing to you about it anyway, but... all in all, it was a nice evening, very happy, I think...

I think things are great. :) I've been thinking about certain things all day, and... just ... kinda grinning to myself. I've got thet warmfuzzies. I like the warmfuzzies.

of course, the universe likes to seek its own level, and I think... I'm probably hexing something by being in as good a mood as I am now. There's very few things that I can think that would bring me down, and Bast, I hope none of them happen. I don't need my parade rained on, when I'm starting to get used to the crowd...

need to remember to make reservations later this evening at Sublime... have a date yay! :):):) =^_^=

Her name is Caydin, and... well, there's something going on that actually makes me real giddy and happy when she's around. It's weird, but momentous maybe, it's the same sort of giddyness I get with Sarny and FFerret and Jen and myBloofox. Warm and happy and excited and giddy, I would almost jump up and down waving my paws and SQUEEEing if that wouldn't be too embarassing to actually do (tho I did it on the deck of Mowry the other night after dancing with her for a while, after she had to go). I've never really know any jogs before, but... she's nice, and fun to be with, and enjoys sailing with me, and so the other day under slightly embarassing circumstances I asked if she wanted to go out to dinner sometime and she said YES! :)

She's a little shorter than me, has beautful eyes (they kinda remind me of Sarny's in a way, the shape) and her fur is the most delicious orange and white, like a walking dreamsicle. Well, she calls it orange, anyway -- I think it's more of a sunset cinnamon, personally. She doesn't seem to really be the girly-girl type, wears mostly jeans and t-shirts and punky stuff but it all looks good on her, and the one time I -did- see her in anything provocative... she really, really is stunningly attractive, but just opts to not show it, I guess. But that's fine, it works with her and it's rather cute too. And she can dance pretty good too. :)

Happy kitty. :) I just need to figure out what I'm going to wear. I know I have something, I'm sure; but Cayding told me with a little each of excitement and embarassment that she went shopping so she could have something casual-nice to wear, instead of her normal... and won't tell me what, I'm so intrigued... but I'll find out tomorrow night I guess. Sublime takes reservations no later than 24 hours prior, so I better remember! :)

anyway
going to go for my run, and then probably down to the boatyard to work on the production hull of the Flying Cat for a while... I got the show hull on display at the show in Sanchon now, but it's only a floating mockup and doesn't have any of the normal rigging, or sails, or actually pretty much anything other than the hulls and a mockup mast. I'm so close to getting it done -- I'm just uncomfortable with how it handles when on a reach, lots of heeling and it flies the windward hull a little but submerges the leeward too much for my own comfort... might have to fill it with closed cell foam instead of air chambers to see if it makes a difference... anyway, Pensive has been playing with the prototype when I'm not working on it and he seems to be having a great deal of fun with it and wants it done so he can try racing it, but seems to be having some issues with the sail... so... we'll see. But confidence is high :) I might have a winner on my hands. I saw a few catamarans at the Show; in fact, next to mine on the same pier is a large cruising sail cat prototype, but nothing in the Tako-sized racing category, which is what I'm aiming for.

Oh... and today, if the weather holds, I'll be launching and christening my latest waterborne baby, a Trudeau Catboat named Hellisha, at the estate pier in Mowry. She's a small enough boat, smaller than Undine, actually, so it'll be easier to have her live in Mowry instead of in Caddo with her sister ships. And I saw Jacqueline Trudeau's next work on display there... she starts taking orders for it next month, and I might have to have one... but probably will wait until after I start selling the Flying Cat.

anyway
that's me and my shop talk, I need to run now, my legs are twitching and I need to get out of the hourse for a bit and under the (slightly cloudy) sky.

Mew!

Last night -- yesterday in general -- was so like trying to fly over building cumuli. Thermals shoving you up, then down as you fall off them. Turbulent. Roller coaster.

Had some good sailing at Hollywood, I wasn't too familiar with the course, which loops all over Geb's creation in and out of some astonishingly pretty islands, so I only held on for the three races I sailed in, but I had a phenomenal start on the last one and held everyone off for a good while until I blundered my spinnaker trim and it collapsed on me. Oh well. I might race it again today to practice it.

Hung out at Mowry for a while.

Spent some good quality time with Sarny. Very good, much needed time.

Had a good cry with Aiko; my face still feels puffy and matted and I need to scrub it for a while but...

THe sun is out today. And the winds are calm, inside me.

Well, the party went off very well... I'm going to send thankyou notes out tonight when I get some free time to myself before heading off to work on my boat... so, from left to right is Lyoko (behind the tree), Desert and... oh my, I forget his name. Then closer to the camera Aiko the bloofox and Sarny who decided to wear a tux to the occation. :) Then me! :) And to my right Evolving and her man Max. And finally, up in the gazebo, Tristin, Mira, and Shar. :) Thank you all of you, and also Natelee, Philia, Lectra, Kitrina, Hughes, the ever-cute Kupo, and anyone else I might have forgotten --- thank you all so very much! =^_^=

*runs around like crazy trying to clean and straighten and vacuum and still needs to try to tidy up the yard, mew*

I might have to skip tonight's casual at MBYC if I can't get the house clean in time. I really want to race and I think I'll be in a really good mood if I can kick off a party after coming back from an hour or two on the water, but if I can't then I can't.

And I need food still, wah. Maybe I can sweetalk Evo and whoever else to bringing some as potluck...

I know, I know, I know I'm trying to save up for a new bed. The gods -know- I need one; mine has been through two apartments and this house so far and it's just getting worn out. And I'm halfway there, really.

But... I just HAD to buy these wedge heels I saw. They're so CUTE. I'll forgive the white dots on the ankle straps, because at least it kinda matches my fur that way. And they only set me back a hundred or so, so it's not like it's really that much of an impediment. I'll make back at least that much this morning.

And yes, Ash, I did pay my rent. I'm not blind to the fact that I need something to put the new bed IN.

It's ROUND. And PURPLE. MEW.

:P

ttyl.
