come to the dark sides, what’s up with cookies

Am I the only person who doesn't get the whole "Come to the dark side, we have cookies" thing? I mean the first two or three times I heard it, it was kinda cute. Not really worth repeating. But I hear people say it alllll the time, it's on like 30 different shirts. Why? I just don't get the why it's SUCH a popular saying. Maybe I'm just dumb and I ...

computers & movies

Yesterday I finally got some new RAM for my computer which needed it BADLY. I got to enjoy it for about an hour this morning - Chase let Windows do its updates (which I never let it) when he installed the RAM, and so I think it was still installing stuff while I was gone all day. I get home and the top half of my monitor is flickering. It's ...

i hate tile

This is going to sound weird but I really hate tile. I mean like tile on the floor, like kitchen or bathroom floors. It just grosses me out for some reason. It goes back to when I was little, and I would stay with my grandparents every day while my parents were at work, and my grandma's kitchen was this weird tile. They were not square tiles but different shapes ...

happy birthday john lennon

I don't like posting song lyrics, but it's a special day and this one means a lot to me, "In My Life." There are places I'll remember All my life, though some have changed Some forever, not for better Some have gone and some remain All these places had their moments With lovers and friends, I still can recall Some are dead and some are living In my life, I've ...

sex with what?

So I'm filling out my medical history for my doctor's appointment today, and I get to this: Do you smoke? _______ Do you consume alcohol? __________ Do you do illegal drugs? ___________ Do you have sex with men? __________ Wait, what? I've seen the "do you have sex" one before, but... so specific? But wait it gets better, because after that: Do you have sex with men? _________ Women? ________ Both? ____________ Neither? ___________ I wanted to write "...

whee… c5 and a video

got home from work today and felt like crap. Felt like I had a migraine coming on, so I took some medicine and laid down. Ate dinner, then rode my bike for about 15 minutes. I feel better - still really tired, but my head feels ok. I'm hoping it stays that way, I really don't want a migraine this weekend. And now I'm re-living my C4 experience with the coming ...

got nothing done today

I got nothing done yesterday. Went to church, went to lunch, was tired so I took a nap... I got up and did a little hand-sewing, but then decided I wanted to do that particular piece a different way so I ripped it all off. Then I played Lego Harry Potter with Kevin, we went to eat dinner, came home and watered the flowers, watched tv and went to bed. ...

the past two days have been weird.

Sorry guys, no art post today. Haven't had time! But I would like to post about yesterday and today. They've been interesting. I'm going to cut it up into segments. 1. So yesterday morning, Nana tells me they found a snake in the garage. She touched it, thinking it was a bungee cord, before she realised it was a giant dead snake and freaked out. This comes into play later. 2. I ...

71 pairs of shoes, 53 wigs

Did a quick count off the top of my head, and that's what I came up with. 71 pairs of shoes, 53 wigs. Stupid shoes. Stupid wigs. Having issues with fitting everything right now. Or, rather, finding places for everything. Really it's not so much MY costumes. All of mine would fit just fine in that closet with no issues. It's Chase's costumes that take up multiple large bins, Kevin's multiple costumes, ...

Helping Out

Copied from Chase: Our friends Ryan and Spaz had the 1st floor of their home wiped out during the Nashville flood this weekend. Ryan is ok as he was out of town over the weekend when the downpour came, but he was only able to get to his house today (Monday) to assess the damage. He had 5 feet or more of water take over his first floor. As you know, ...
