Adventures in sewing.
I bought myself a sewing machine! I think I already announced that, but this is what I've been trying my hand at. Awhile ago, I hand-sewed- and then outsourced to my aunt- a bunch of tiny little towels to use for face cleansing. I love the idea of individual, pre-soaped pads for that, but buying them is just disgustingly eco-hating. So, I wanted to make my own. That's only part of the reason I bought a sewing machine, but it is what I'm starting with. Basically, it doesn't really matter if I fuck them up because only I'm using them and only I will notice that they look more like mcdonalds chicken nuggets than like actual squares. I make them out of washcloths, which is why some of them have really nice edges; that's not me, that's the washcloths and their... serged? edges. Here's the progression of the four I made today:     I was a newt. I got better! Current Mood:  goodCurrent Music: Florence And The Machine - Dog Days Are Over |

1. What did you do in 2009 that you'd never done before? i went to sydney australia! it was, honestly disappointing in and of itself (I expected it to be NOT like America, and it was just America with different driving and a better accent), but i got to meet a LONG-TIME online friend, so it was a whole O_____O OMG IS THIS REALLY HAPPENING!???! experience.

About ten years ago, Cody joked that Mimi was going to serve meat with a side of meat, a glass of meat and some meat for dessert. I still use that joke today and I've only ever gotten two reactions: disgusted horror and uproarious amusement. |

Picture Post: cats
Yet another picture post!  I broke down the bought a fake tree. I sort of disapprove of them on one level, but then again- I think they may be more eco-friendly? I have no idea. Anyway, it was $35 pre-lit and it's 6ft tall. ( Six pictures of the cats ) |

sweet stinky jesus
this korma smells like ASS i don't know if i have the guts to actually try it *eyes it suspiciously* I tried it! And filmed it. WHY?! Also, I do not naturally have linebacker shoulders; the jacket I have to wear at work gives me about 3 extra inches of shoulder in every direction.

Humans, no
I'm convinced that humanity shares some sort of great, cosmic consciousness. I have no other explanation for the weirdness that I have to deal with in the middle of the night. Everything will be completely dead- no one at the desk, no one calling from hotel rooms, no one calling from outside and no one wandering around inside the hotel aimlessly. Then suddenly BAM- I have four people calling from different parts of the world to make reservations, two people calling from their rooms wanting wake-up calls, someone at the desk asking a stupid fucking question and someone in the guest store (also asking a stupid question). Of course, neither of the people at the desk see the other person or hear the phone ringing, and the people on the phone can't hear the assholes talking at me or the phone ringing in the background and EVERYONE gets pissed off as I explain that I am the only person here and I cannot split myself eight ways to help them all. Then, when it stops, it stops dead. No one calling, no one bugging me. Of course, when it starts up again, it's all things at once. How can you possibly explain something like that as a coincidence when it happens so often? Current Mood: crankyCurrent Music: Bing Crosby - Christmas Is a Comin' |

it wouldn't and i don't think it really should affect anyone. then again, i generally assume everything i say and do is being monitored, so i don't do things/say things i don't expect to come out later. i would have no problem with him snooping on my computer and i don't think he should have any problem if i were to do the same to him. which i have done, on occasion, when bored. actually, if ryan read my email, he'd know what i'm getting him for christmas, SO HE'D BETTER NOT! until after dec. 25. |

boo
i think my body is a jerk. i seem to only really want to have the drive to lose weight when my uterus is demanding fatty foods. so i'm like, "i shouldn't not eat this second bagel because i am disgusting!" while my uterus is telling me, "IF YOU DON'T EAT THAT FUCKING BAGEL I WILL CUT YOU!" then i just get epically pissed at myself for not being able to have any willpower when it comes to food. i suck at life.

another brain cookie
The other day, I woke up with a snatch of a Christmas carol going through my head, but with slightly different lyrics: The world in solemn stillness lay,
To see the angel's boobs. Current Mood:  amused |

FFFFFUUUUUU BLACK ICE bah. I want to go to bed, but I need to go to the post office. I would just GO but the whole parking lot of the apartment complex is probably still frozen. On the way in, an hour ago, I nearly hit a parked car because turning the wheel did nothing (not even going fast at all); my car just ignored the turned wheels and kept coasting forward. LUCKILY I wasn't going fast and I just stopped a few inches away, but it was a great big, "ah shit" moment. I parked as soon as I had control of the car, and then walked all the way to the apartment. Of course, I slipped and fucked up my ankle twice on the way over. I love the cold, but ack. This light sprinkle of rain followed by freezing temperatures is not fun. Current Mood:  sore |

Q
Ryan and I are yelling out bad superheroes. It went something like this: Inappropriate question man: so, can I get your sister's phone number? Charitible mustache: I wish to give facial hair to all the young girls! Doesn't pay his taxes man: I work under the table! Panty shoplifting man: I also occasionally work under the table! |
