I hope everyone had a safe and fun time ringing in New Year's Eve Personally, I had a pretty good time. I was taken to a nice Chinese restaurant for dinner - buffet-style, mmm mmm mmmm. Rented Star Wars Lego 2 for the xBox, and also got SNL's The Best of Alec Baldwin - very funny. Got to watch some fireworks from my... Read More
Okay, I got my flight booked back home. It cost more than I had hoped, but it was my own fault for not booking it last week. My mom and gramma both pitched in, and it took some Christmas money too, but we did it. Whew. I'm happy to have it over and done with. I'll have to leave my house at something... Read More
Um. Hmm. I really don't have much to say today. I'm frustrated, I can tell you that. I'm trying to book a flight home so I can take care of my mom, and the price of plane tickets has gone up since I last checked the site ! So now I'm attempting to find a day earlier when I could perhaps get a cheaper flight,... Read More
I hope everyone is having a terrific holiday season Thanks to everybody who stopped by to send some xmas love.
The big dinner went really well last night, I somehow served a turkey dinner to nine people in my tiny house - on time no less. I made buns from scratch, and they rose beautifully (insert dirty comment here ); stuffed potatoes, check;... Read More
Ew. That's the one thing I hate about dying my hair. Sometimes I just want to wash it a thousand times to get all the dye and nasty conditioner it comes with out.
And with dying my hair with a red tone to it makes it even worse. It takes about a week for all the 'excess' red to wash out or else everything I wear that's a light colour gets orange around the neck and back area.
will his 6 and whenevery he is over at my place, he walches cartooms like Ben 10, and Naruto, and so i got hime some of those toys and them them love the movie and vidoe game of Mortal Kombat and DBZ, and some others things he wanted ...lol
The presents are wrapped (mostly), the baking is finished.... all I need to do now is clean my house and make a turkey dinner for six-to-maybe-nine people - all while looking mostly presentable. That's do-able, right? Right?!
Since I was little we'd always do our big dinner on Christmas Eve, so there was no need to rush or do much of anything Christmas Day, aside... Read More
Thanks to everyone who commented on my new hair. I like it more now that I've had a couple of days to adjust.
Baking

Thank You for offering your help. I Have to find somewhere to live first. Of course, I can always stay here and get a new roommate. But, I don't feel like paying possibly $600+ in rent charges.
I cut Roomba trying to clip his nails AGAIN. Poor baby, he must hate me
I know I jokingly posted about making Ewok Stew and Jellied Jar Jars for Christmas last week, but I am actually in need of some good xmas-goodie recipes. When I went camping this summer, I had left my box of recipe books in the laundry room (stupidly) next to the hot water tank - it blew while I was away. I came home... Read More
I had a great time It was just what I needed.
Beer, Entertainment, Compliments on my work, and not to forget near whiplash from the neverending parade of beauties running around.
How are you guys doing with the fluishness? Hope you guys are feeling better.
Talk to you soon.
The dog that I foster for a local animal rescue came back home Sunday. While doing Pet Pics with Santa at Petsmart last weekend, a man came up and seemed interested in old Bear (who, for non-regular readers is a 13 y.o lab shep cross) - and after some discussion, decided to take him home for a trial-run, of sorts. He... Read More
What movies have you seen lately? Anything worth reccomending?
Well,
I've seen:
Apocalypto <---------I battled seeing this movie. Mel Gibson being an ASShat and all
Blood Diamond<----------Couldn't get over the accent... But loved the movie
The Holiday<----------guilty pleasure. Once over Cameron Diaz, good movie
The Fountain<-------------go see this movie. Not for the pedestrian filmgoer, but smart/pretty
Casino Royale<----------better then I thought it was going to be. Very entertaining
Bobby<-------------well done. Maybe a rental
Deja Vu<----------------------done well, but.......Maybe too much for me... *meh*
Borat<-----------Funny ass movie. Worth the $10.
Babel<-------------go see this movie. Great story. Ensemble is great!
I'm having proubles deciding what to make for Christmas dinner.... I mean, sure, the classics like turkey, stuffing, potatoes, peas, carrots, celery with that strip of Cheese Whiz down the middle are fine, but I kind of want to try something new this year. Something exciting. Here are a few ideas I'm tossing around (I've spoiler-ed the ingredients):
Bear wasn't adopted by the family that took him yesterday. They said his age was too much of an issue.
I was told when I took him in that he was 13 years old - bullsh*t. He doesn't look or act like a thirteen year old dog. He runs circles around my seven year old lab. Sorry, had to vent somewhere.
