I was searching craftster.org for some awesome crafts and I came across this. I need to get back into soapmaking… Good job sugarhandgrenade! You can find more of her unique and quirky crafts (and buy them) at kitsch niche.
A cold day in So Cal? Impossible. This weekend was a record breaking 2 days of rain! (Not all the way through the day, sunny during the day and raining at night) In a way, I guess we’re spoiled with perfect weather everyday, but rain every now and then wouldn’t hurt either. Maybe next year, our persimmon tree will give bigger (or normal sized) fruit. [This year, we had cute mini persimmon sprouting from the branches.]
I just rolled about 300 eggrolls. It made my day go by faster, but it didn’t keep me company. I miss Sergio. He’s out sick today and I forgot what it’s like to work alone. Oh so lonely.
Here’s a story I saw on Hawty McBloggy that I thought you might find interesting. Might make some good conversation with your firends tomorrow!
“I don’t know the specifics yet, but I can say with 100% certainty that something extremely fishy is going on over at eBay. Let me explain.
An eBay auction recently ended in which a “Halo 3 Xbox Live Friendship” was sold [Difference in Opinion]. It’s not the first time it has been done, and I am sure it won’t be the last either. The person selling this friendship was eBay seller lilperiwinkle, who just happens to not have any feedback whatsoever. This “lilperiwinkle” is a demure young blond who has this to say about the item that was for sale :
Here’s your chance to make a new Halo 3 friend on XBOX live! Yes I am a girl and Yes I do actually play. I have my good days of playing and my bad days. I’m pretty darn good with plasma grenades I must say. My favorite level is Snow Bound! I have a pink controller and a Turtle Beach X3 headset for surround sound. I’m all set for a good game!
This friendship will included: talking on XBOX live, Playing Halo 3, messaging, I can help you with unlocking achievements- finding hidden skulls. Also you will get a signed picture of me playing halo 3. This is a once and a lifetime deal- Hey maybe we can even level up together!”
I thought it was pretty funny. She mentions later that the friendship actually sold for $107. Why didn’t I think of that? I mean, I can throw in the autographed picture too!
I have so many little items I want to post on my etsy store but I’m becoming very frustrated with the mediocre lighting in the house. The tungsten lights are making my stationary look like they’re orangy and the florescent lights above are making my head cast a huge shadow on the stationary. Things are not turning out as easy as I’d hoped for. Maybe I’ll do a “photo shoot” tomorrow outside.
I’ve gotten so used to sleeping late now that I’m staring at the computer because I feel like it’s too early to go to bed now. It’s 1 a.m… I hate going online because I always feel like there’s something that needs to be done, and once I get ready to sleep, I think of it. So that results in me just staring at the computer screen trying to think of what else I need to do and hoping that I “forget” about my homework. Grr. See? I don’t even make sense anymore.
