Feature 5.28- thetinies



A dearly beloved Etsyan has started a new shop called thetinies. It's almost sinful how cute they are. I can't wait to see what other ones she makes. I also can't wait to get my pair, the ones in the picture. I could have faved them. But it seems when I fave things they sell quicker and I wanted them for my own, my precious. (Just watched LOTR last night)

I think this is only my second feature. You can check my click the 'feature' label at the bottom of this post. But I felt I had to. They're just too delectably cute. But you'll have to get your own.

Lethargy



I'm not sure why, but I'm dead tired when I wake up. It's like I didn't sleep at all. Very odd.

We're going to the movies today. A theater that closed and then re-opened has a 'matinee-price-all-day' thing on Tuesdays. The choice is between Iron Man and the new Narnia. I think we're leaning Iron Man.

I've done some offloading on eBay. Searched for supplies and didn't get the D-SLR that I thought would be mine. Not that I actually tried...just admired from a far. It was a nice camera, for what I know of them. One day...

Got my Metalliferous order, too. Chain tags and earwires. I hope they put all their stuff in their online store. It's so easy. I could get addicted to buying online.

Now 5.26



Where have all the blog commenters gone? Perhaps it's selfish to ask. But I used to get about 2 comments a day and don't get any now, so I'm just wondering...

I try to reserve 'Now' for big revelations or milestones, at least I shall from now on.

I found out an old classmate of mine is pregnant. We've lived in the same town for the last 15 years so we run into acquaintances from times gone by occasionally. We (Mom Bro2 and I) ran into the father of that classmate today. It threw me. Not in a judging way, I don't think. I just didn't think she would, now. Younger girls get pregnant, I know. It's just...I don't know. At it brings back the fact that we aren't kids anymore...that we've grown up. I couldn't imagine myself with a baby...maybe because I'm so unbelievably single. Ha!

I'm not sure I should bring my eBay 'life' into my elpy 'life' but I have 5 watchers on the fondue fountain. I'm very excited about this. I've tried selling it more than once since we got it. Don't give someone a fondue fountain unless you know they like/want one. C'mon. A toaster anyone can use...unless you're on a low-carb thing I guess. But if it's an oven...anyway, a fondue fountain has only one purpose. Thanks, anyway. :) (Do I sound ungrateful? I'm not really...I loved the thought behind it.)

Blurble 5.25



So I rushed to get on the computer after whatever sordid show I was watching went off. I think it was a rerun of Brothers and Sisters. I was the 'scandalous' stuff when I'm alone. Anyway, I wanted to wish 'Happy Birthday' to a friend on Facebook. Turns out her birthday is tomorrow...which at the moment is a stunning 15+ minutes.

I sat in the redecorated sunroom (it's sounds more glorious than it is) suffocating in the smell of new and thought I'd post a little something.

I'm stalking some things on eBay. They call it 'watching'...sounds less threatening again. But really, "I'm stalking you." "I'm watching you." Watching sounds more ominous and nebulous. Oy! See what happens to my mind in the later hours. Anyway, if you're interested, I think have a camera, a mannequin, a flexshaft and some jewelry-making supplies on my list. I stalk a lot with no intent of buying. Or very little.

Made the most scrumptious mac and cheese for dinner for the fam and I today. Yum! I love mac and cheese. (Technically it had rotini in it, too.)

Watched off-road racing on TV with the boys (Bro1&2 and Dad). It was actually a good race complete with the come-from-behind at the very last second...at the least turn, victory. Rather thrilling.

I think I like blogging at night when I'm almost exhausted out of my mind. I'm truer to my own voice then and don't try to write like what I've read or think people want to hear. It's just me, scribbling with the keyboard.

Good night and Happy Memorial Day! Er, do we say that?

Post Picture: Lover-ly pic from last year of some flowering and leafy branches. We had to get a new printer. It's supposed to be good at printing pics. I'll have to test it out, if only for my own enjoyment. Have a few nice ones I want to put in my room.

Obvious



We just might have a little inter-neighbor battle going on. Actually, I'm pretty sure of it. It's interesting. There's a young-ish boy stuck in the middle. I pity him.

Anyway, I bought LOS (liver of sulphur) today. I go back and forth, not wanting to over-pay at all. But money must be spent, right? I tell myself that one day I will have enough to buy want I need and not worry about. One day. So I'm one step closer to earring goodness of a different kind. I hope it works. I really do. I think it will be cool in a geeky-chic way.

Short post today. You're happy, right?
