decorating my non-existant house!!! for example? last weekend, i bought furniture in preparation of the day i move out. ( wanna see? )

it's all being stored in my sister's garage until i get a place.

now i can't quit looking for a nice, inexpensive cherry headboard/footboard on craigslist. oh and i'm also in love with some art and rugs at target. ( namely these. )

i think i need an intervention.

is it zombie day today? do i need to hide until it's over? cause me and zombies are NOT like peas and carrots. they terrify me. it's totally irrational fear, but still. haaaaaaaaaaaaate.

i went ahead and bought the Pentax A30. consensus seemed to agree that it was the best camera and with the $50 mail-in rebate, i really couldn't beat that price for a 10MP camera. i placed the order this morning and it shipped this afternoon. i'd say that's pretty good customer service!

finally got my Blaker Girl shirt. it's only been in nashville since last friday. ugh. stupid USPS. worse news is that i'm probably not going to keep it because it's just too small. maybe i'll get my own made or something...

SYTYCD was fabulous tonight. i do believe i might have to eat my words about Lacey Schwimmer(and the top 20, really) because she was totally my favorite. i've rewound and watched her performance three times now. seriously beautiful stuff.

voting for: Lacey & Kameron, Sara & Jesus, and Lauren & Neil.
going home? possibly Ricky's partner whose name i can't recall right now and i don't know who else.

online shopping is entirely too tempting this year. i want Angel: Seasons 3-5 and Buffy: Seasons 5-7 (deepdiscountdvd.com is having a killer sale, y'all. just click on that link.) i also wouldn't say no to this and this and this and of course all of the things i mentioned here. see? tempting.

i did end up using the amazon gift certificate on Supernatural. i hope it gets here quickly.

(sorry for the spamming. this is what happens when i'm left to my own devices.)

i want to thank roniabirk for her generosity meme. you are an amazing person to offer to do this for others. some you don't even know. you're one of a kind, my friend. i also want to thank the anonymous person who put my name in for said meme. both of you have made my day. now i just have to figure out what to spend my gift certificate on! :) (anonymous person, feel free to tell me who you are!)

i had to order an adapter for my atari so i can use it with my "modern" television. so i've yet to be able to play it. :( here's hoping it's waiting on me when i get home this afternoon.

well...better get back to work. only two more hours and it's technically wednesday. can't beat that, can you?

Extreme Home Makeover: Home Edition is in my town!!

i am so happy for this family. their home was completely demolished by the tornado that came through here in april and the mother was paralyzed while protecting her children from the chaos. they just had a special van donated to them a few weeks ago so that she could get to and from her physical therapy and just generally get around town without having to rely on someone to help get her and her chair into a car. it has the special controls so she can eventually drive it herself. all in all i'd say they're on the road to recovering from this disaster.

now i have to figure out where exactly they live because i need to stalk Ty, Preston, Ed and Paul.

in unrelated news, i bought this. i keep saying i need something to play my music when i'm outside in the pool. now i have it! i also got bandit a new harness. he's less than impressed with it and if looks could've killed, i'd be dead. he was cracking me up when i took him outside with it on for the first time. he kept rolling around in the grass trying to figure out a way to get it off. hee! animals are fun-nee...

i've really sucked with not wishing people a happy birthday. so happy (belated!) birthday to beppergirl, lady_ireland, _burntsienna, sassyeggs77 and hijinx400!!!

happy early birthday wastedfairy and kerryfromcali!!!

well...i have a shiny, new phone. i went with the razr. the sad thing? i don't have my OPJ yellow XTerra as a wallpaper anymore. SAD! i'm going to have to spot another one on the road and snap a picture. as of right now i've settled on taking a picture of my smooshed face lion. (why yes, fandom has eaten my brain.)

i also managed to lose all the numbers i had on speed dial on the old phone because they were saved to the phone and not the SIM card. thankfully, i've retrieved those numbers too.

the phone itself? shiny. i'm such an electronics geek. forget jewelry, give me electronics. i got a bluetooth headset so i won't have to worry about answering the phone in the car anymore. oh and a carrying case because i don't want it to get all scratched up.

if you want to share your number with me and you don't think i already have it, i'm going to set up a poll that will only be viewable to me. that way i don't have to screen comments on this entry.

in conclusion, wheeeeeeeeeee!! shiny, new phone.

[Poll #715746]

i am posting from my shiny, new computer desk. now i need a better computer chair.

( wanna see? )

isn't it pretty? yes, that is a smooshed face lion. also idreamofpeace's mix cd, which i will attempt to get out to you tomorrow. :)

now i must find food and shower. building things is hard work.
