Well now that my little goo is expired I can mention how our Halloween party went. I think it went OK. A few people knew who we were pretending to be. I think Darrin looks particularly convincing as the New Number 2. I guess I am glad that not *everyone* in the world got the goo :-). It was supposed to say, "This goo is not number 1118" as I wanted to avoid using the phrase "not a number" to make it just a tiny bit less obvious, but we can chalk that phrasing difference up to my inability to communicate.

Here we are. By the way, a highly budget-conscious person should never purchase a fleece scarf for $6 when they can instead go to Walmart and have the fleece cut to the desired width for an instant scarf for less than a dollar, as we did :P. Need I mention how much I hate pictures of myself? I think not. I'm sure everyone realizes that about me already.

If you mean the guy on "the" right rather than "my" right, we thought ourselves that he kind of looks like George Washington :P. That is Darrin (with the scarf and umbrella) as number 2. The one in the white-edged blazer is my husband Darrell as Number 6.

HAHAHA... I'm glad I wasn't the only one -- I was hesitant to say anything, but "George Washington" was *exactly* what I was thinking... ;-D

I still think those outfits turned out pretty darn cool. Well done, Denise. :-)

Well I requested some time off work until January 3rd... For the price of 4 vacation days I get 11 days off. We're going to go visit my husband's older brother in Wisconsin around New Years... Go »

Narcissist

Oh lord, new worry, what if I'm a narcissist. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissistic_Personality_Disorder "NPD is considered to result from a person’s belief that he or she is flawed in a way that makes the person fundamentally unacceptable to others [8]. Go »

Lost Things

Darrin's sheet and pillowcase disappeared some time back, and I just discovered my nice black pants are missing. I almost always wear jeans so I have no idea how long they have been gone. We searched thoroughly for these items and the only theory we can come up with is that Darrin's ex-girlfriend took them. Go »

I love waking up early

I got up before 5, took a shower, did a bunch of my fun and addictive getting-free-stuff-on-the-internet activities, had breakfast, and went and found some treasures in Kameo, all before heading out to work at 7:50. That was awesome. We always go to bed before 10 anyway so what's the point hanging around in bed in the morning when I'm not tired. Go »

TV crushes

I need to apologize for the rather fangirlish reference in my last goo. I was having a little crush on Marcus Cole when I made the goo... that is my justification. Go »
