( wheeep )
I'm leaving for Portland on Wednesday to look for housing, open a bank account, meet the Torrid and Hot Topic managers at the Lloyd Center, and possibly re-register to vote and make lots of sales-tax free purchases. I most likely won't be on the internet at all when I'm up there, since my uncle's on dial up at his place and I don't want to take the laptop. I will be getting back on the 21th (which, looking at the City Schools calendar we have, is the kick off of "EHS SPRING FEVER WEEK", hahaha).
Just an FYI.
Also, belated HAPPY BIRFDAY to Thomas Jefferson -265 yeas young! haha

Who else totally loves the John Adams Thomas Jefferson? I was a little bummed with the Alexander Hamilton though :(

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY! WHEE!
Guess who else's birthday is coming up? Oh yeah. Me.
WHEE! I'm hoping that I get a little bit of money from my grandparents. It will definitley make up for my LAME small checks lately and boost my moving fund. Hooray for moving funds!
We were talking about my moving a lot yesterday, and I'm pretty confidant about it. Really, all that I'm waiting on now is how much money I can save between now and then and if I can get transfered to a Hot Topic or Torrid (hopefully the latter) up north. I'm looking foreward to going through all my crap and getting rid of a lot of it. I have such a terrible backlog of shit I don't need, and haven't needed in years! Ahh!
I also looked at cell phones. I hate cell phones with a firey passion, but I'm going to have to get one. As a testament to my high taste, the ones I liked were all $135 +. haha.
I will be updating
cigarettesfic today. Eventually, anyway.

It's that time of year again. No, not New Years, lame-o. ALEXANDER HAMILTON'S BIRTHDAY!
January 11! I have to do something, but I haven't decided what. It's the same day as my oral surgery ICKY ICKY ICKY, so I'll do something early.
Anyway, I went to Joanns before I went to work and looked for the satin for my Amadeus cloak- sold out. Figures. It's okay, though, since I don't even have the pattern yet, which I'm meaning to order today. I bought a jumbo sized embroidery hoop (and I mean jumbo sized. Jumbo sized enough that jumbo- sized me can hula hoop in it), since it was on sale. yay.

I still haven't sent my friend's birthday package yet, even though yesterday was her birthday. I did, however, go and pick up a box. I didn't want to lug all the crap on the bus to get there and not have a box that fit the posters that I'm sending. Luckily, they had a "shoebox" sized/shaped one, and that worked perfectly. So, hopefully I'll send it tomorrow. Maybe.
I just got finished watching all the shows I generically Tivo-ed last thrusday (Scrubs, ER). I had forgotten that NBC was doing their whole "Green Prime Time" bullshit thing that day. Everyshow in their prime time slots had a "green" or "eco friendly" message and their peacock guy was, you guessed it, green. I'm all for fixing the environment, read doing something actually useful like developing an alternative fuel and outlawing SUVS that aren't being used as service vehicles, but having ER scripted to talk about the incondescent light bulbs they've replaced to save energy for the hospital isn't doing anything. Same with America's Next Top Model having an eco bus hauling the girls around. It's become such a fashion statement to be an "environmentalist". I predict a backlash to it all in a few years. I guess it's annoying to me because I've been hearing the Save the Earth thing my whole life, due to where I live, so it being EVERYWHERE is just driving me crazy. Until you've been hauled out of a tree by the lumber company, or ran around in a "screeching osprey" costume, demonstrating the plight of the "helpless salmon", who is, in actuality, your dormmate wearing a salmon outfit, you're not an environmental activist. LOL, kidding.
It's almost like the crazy hippies that everyone just ignored have gotten the hipster vote as of late. I'm saying it again, I predict a backlash.
HAPPY PICTURE!

Eep, been a long time since I've posted (oh shut it, for me it's a long time).
I've finished a package I'm sending to my friend for her birthday (tomorrow).
I've started working on my MP swap.
I bought unnecessary shirts that were 40% off 50% off of 50% off clearance. >.>
Anyhoo, yeah. Nothing.
NEW ICON WHOO!
OH YES> I just got off work, explaining the lack of coherence in above post. I think. yeah

it actually came out good! i "stenciled" Lafayette on it in sugar sprinkles. it would have been better if i had used a non bumpy frosting, but rainbow chip is soo damn good.
also, the blue gel icing came out blobby since i cut the tube too far up. eh.
( cakey goodness! )
YAY! now i don't want to cut into it

yay - Music:Dora the Explorer is on in the background
it's official- i suck at baking.
my cake came out all lopsided, but i think frosting it will make it better. i just hope i have enough. i had to use two round pans, since the rectagular one was occupied. we have so much damn cake right now, it's rediculous.
i have to work today,but not until 3.30, so i'm still figuring out what to do. i want to dress up so bad. if Anthony can dress up as Harry Potter, i can for this. grrr. hahaha

OMG-
Lafayette's 250th birthday is tomorrow and i have no idea what i'm going to do. Usually i'm about three years too late for big milestones like this, but this year, i'm on the money. I have to work tomorrow (aak), and want to do something to commemorate. Unfortunatley, dressing up is out of the question. I'll probably just end up making a button or something like that. It crept up on me and suddenly -whabam- it's the day before. I've been so caught up in costumes and swaps that i forgot Lafayette! I'm a horrid person. LOL.
UPDATE:
here's the button i made. i'm pretty happy with it.
