You Can't Handle the Randomness!
Yeah, yeah, yeah. A day late and a dollar short.
Tell it to my pimp!
My friend from New Orleans had bought me the tiny "Pimpin' Your Pumpkin" kit from Barnes and Noble. We found a pumpkin at Wal-Mart that was just perfect and we decorated that bitch up!

Know what I did this past weekend?
Made a hermit crab cage!
Yeppers. With my own two little hands.
I bought the wire cover, snagged an extra pressed wood shelf from a storage unit that's not being used, cut apart an old cutting board and staple gunned the hell out of everything!
I have a temporary lid on it right now.
Anastasia looks pleased!

You know how I've talked before about Operation Christmas Child?
Well, here's my new area that I keep all my supplies.
Yeah, those are all filled to the brim.
That's a crapload of stuff!
The kids should be happy!
We've already started on next years boxes. We've got about 50 so far. They're not complete though. I still need soap and washclothes and whatnot for them. But, since this is a year long thing for myself and Light, it'll get done.

Speaking of the shoebox stuff.....a couple of weekends ago, we went to this discount store. Kind of like a Ross's or a TJ Maxx, but waaaaaaaaay down on the ladder. It doesn't look like much from the outside and sometimes you go there and the deals suck, but this time? PAY DIRT!
50 embroidered belts at 5 CENTS a piece and in total, 6 tubes of lip stuff (chapstick and lipstick)....all for LESS THAN SIX DOLLARS!!!!!
Pretty frickin' awesome!

Have y'all ever seen my international rings that I wear almost every day?
No?
Well then, here you go.
On my ring finger is a cladagh ring (Irish)that I got in Epcot.
On my index finger is a crown ring (English) that I got in the Quarter in New Orleans......
and on my right hand, a Greek key ring.....straight outta Greece! Thanks to my Aunt C, that is.

One downside to this new job?
When someone rents the building for a dinner or a banquet, the smell of the food cooking is DRIVING ME CRAZY! I'm so hungry for BBQ right now thanks to the people that are doing a dinner here tonight. They started cooking a couple of hours ago and my stomach is YELLING AT ME!!!
