my so called life

so ive been watching a lot of my so called life lately. noggin (a canadian teen channel) plays it at like 4am and my dvr records it. I guess i was young and naive enough the first time it was on not to really realize all that was going on in that show. That show was CUTTING EDGE. many of the topics wouldnt fly in a teenage drama NOW. no wonder it didnt last more than one season. there are homeless kids, drugs, teenage sex, gays and more. i thought i would bring it to every ones attention. its a great show, way ahead of its time. check it out sometime.

priceless

all the booze you can drink at the office christmas party... one year of hard work
dinner after... $12
jello shots at the bar... $6
seeing your boss and IT guy do karaoke at a gay cowboy bar... priceless



they did jack and diane... amazing!

like finding a unicorn

they do exist! the 12 oz red bull. im not telling you where i found it...

a day with miles

so i spent a day with miles on sunday. we havent done this in a long time, way to long in fact, but the reasons why are to much for right now, but with all that drama behind us, we decided to spend a day together. It started with a lovely brunch, made by yours truly, of "electric" burritos and mimosas. we had a little planing to do, so we got straight to work. the planning went well and well to be completely honest, we got totally hammered, it was the best "meeting" ive been a part of in a while! so after the meeting, 3 episodes of sex and the city and some more intoxicant, miles and i decided to go to the sonic and get some cheesecake bites. while in the car,we decided that the weather was to nice to just go to sonic and back. so, we drove. we looked at beautiful houses and vowed someday we too would live in the lap of luxury and do nothing but play all day! while out we went to the 7-11...



so we walked around looking for something we "needed" and found this



not sure what a donald duck has to do with snack cakes but it looked interesting. we didnt buy it.


miles thought about a granola bar...



but we didnt buy that either. in the land of a hazy 7-11 all we walked out with were more cigarettes. so we went back to the house cause seth and eric were waiting for their cheesecake bites and we had been gone for over an hour. so we enjoyed the bites, watched a little more sex and the city and decided that going to walmart sounded like a fun idea. so off we went to walmart. when we arrived we realized that we were hungry and cheeseburgers and nuggets sounded amazing...



and they were! we ate every bite almost!



i also thought i needed an ice cream cone...




but i got it and it started to melt. word to the wise, always get your cone AFTER you eat your food!

so then we took off into the magical land of walmart. you can find all sorts of great things there! by the time we went through the store I had an entire basket of things i didnt need and had been there for several hours. waiting in line, there were only like 3 lanes open and 57 people wanting to check out so i had some time to kill, i took inventory of my basket and weeded out all but the most necessary frivolous purchases...



a cute little notebook ( i am totally addicted to notebooks!)
some MORE fabric, some for tomatoes and some for the cute apron pattern i bought on my last nonsense trip to walmart
a root beer (i was quite parched after all the walking)
a yard stick (so i can start on the new years skirt)
some gorilla glue (to fix the chair i sew on)
hairspray
2 picture frames (to frame the design for my next tattoo)
2 bottle pour things for my dish soap

not bad for a random trip. I find the key to random shopping trips is to put yourself on some sort of limit. mine was $5. I couldnt buy anything that cost more than $5, which is why the canvas basket didnt come home with me. it was $8.

needless to say it was a GREAT day. miles and i sure do know how to have fun.

mmm Jordan Catalano

sometimes working on a sat. isn't half bad.


thats all for now... I have to actually do some work. tonight Zappa Plays Zappa... should be an interesting crowd.

well hello there

well hello all. this is my first entry... mmm what to talk about... well first the reason why. I am sitting here reading all these crafty blogs, and since I have recently decided that crafts are my new passion and obssession, I decided I needed a blog. we will see how it goes!
