Courtney sez: this man could save everything

I ripped this post off from The Ghost of Andy Kaufman so I haven't checked this out yet, but this site says you can "Get a ron paul 08 bumper sticker for 1 penny". Sounds pretty swell.

Gosh, how many prison guards are they hiring, putting the ad on MySpace?! They'd hire me with my almost-complete degree in Criminal Justice but I think I'll pass...

You're Watership Down!

by Richard Adams

Though many think of you as a bit young, even childish, you're
actually incredibly deep and complex. You show people the need to rethink their
assumptions, and confront them on everything from how they think to where they
build their houses. You might be one of the greatest people of all time. You'd
be recognized as such if you weren't always talking about talking rabbits.

Random thought: why is broccoli suddenly unpalatable, at around the same time that I realize broccoli + cheese is my favorite food?

Backgroud Noise: guess

but i LIKE my errata

Sunday he made the Red Lobster shrimp pasta copycat recipe i've been begging for (we don't have one here).

I am happy to report that I don't have to pay $12 for it ever again, because it was PERFECT (exact replica except it needs fresh parm and less-tough shrimp from too much simmering - pasta went on too late). Tonight he's doing a fish & chip fry.




Hubba Hubba!

Backgroud Noise: Saturday - Built to Spill

 My Paint Shop Pro Trial is about to expire, WHAT DO I DO!?:

I'm in this big "Hey, Remember the 80's?" phase. It led me to try to find a bunch of sweater vests on eBay, which was a little mini-obsession for a couple of weeks (that and camouflage haha). There are not a lot of good sweater vests to be had. After wading through like 37 pages of old lady Christmas Vests on there, I found the vest of my dreams (well, that would actually be an exact replica of Ferris Bueller's, and I haven't found that for years!).

Grey. Gap. Cashmere blend. It was a decent price, and it looked great in the photo:




Well when it arrived it was way too big. Excited turned to heartbroken in the time it took to unwrap the 5 layers of Priority Mail envelopes the seller had put it in. I wore it to work the next day anyway and it looked okay (I took pictures) but felt so behemoth. Well yesterday I washed it on hot and machine-dryered it against my better judgement and it's much better. Except for the gnarly wrinkles on the collar which I'm sure will cool-iron out. If I've ruined it I just might commit ritual suicide, I am THAT into sweater vests.

So after it shrunk in the wash I really had to wear it, that night. Even though I was just lounging around in pj's. I thought it looked cool with my awesome grey pj's so I declared Picture Night, even though I had just declared Sunday Snack Pigout Nite (way too many Milano's and Cotswald, the most delicious of all cheeses).

So I got out the makeup and had myself a full-on dorky makeover session and photo shoot. (Which of course I was compelled to document on moblog for your puzzled enjoyment.)

In keeping with my delayed reaction emergence of a personal style, expression focusing primarily on preppy 80's nerd stuff (I was younger than you cool eighties people - old enough to think that sorta thing was cool but too young to incorporate it into my wardrobe). I felt that my outfit really needed a little sunglasses pin like I had back in the day, hot pink. Well of course I don't have any of those (YET!), but what I do have is this weird pink polka dot rose pin made of t-shirt material (huh?) that I accidentally took home from Target in a zoning-mishap.

Yep, I had a grand time playing in the makeup and taking pictures, even though most of them have toothbrush fog in them.  See I have to use this weird mirror method to take pre-approved pictures because my new phone doesn't have a back display. So sad. So yeah I didn't realize I needed to clean the mirror until the fashion frenzy was fizzling.

I learned two things over my long sicky weekend:
1) I need to experiment with my massive makeup collection more. I didn't even know what a grand opportunity I had in the Clinic Sunburst Duo/Rumspice sample. I haven't touched that before, thinking it was too gaudy, but it looks way cool on.
2) I should get some warm house-lounging pants, instead of stealing Chris' new ones that he hasn't even worn yet.  I could probably use an electric blanket too.

Now I really want to get some suspenders, and wear them off-shoulder - I always thought that was so damn cool and I still do!! Don't worry I stop short and rebuke bike shorts and the Side Ponytail.
