Show me thy whispering eye mah lady
I missed work yesterday due in part to our upstairs neighbor deciding she and her new husband needed to get ready for their flight out to their honeymoon at midnight. I didn't sleep all night. I could hear their every move, slamming closet doors, walking/running all over the place; this woman stomps like she weighs 300 pounds. It was uncomfortable. I didn't go to work so I finished up a report, made James some French Bread, picked up my 3 month supply of anti-baby pills and then went to the DMV. James is now a CA resident. We finally got to the DMV office yesterday to get it all suited out. Upon walking in, James just said "WOW" and he looked surprised. He was taken back at how busy and BIG our DMV offices are. He said they're probably 1/8th the size in FL. Upon arriving home, I started preparing dinner and we finished up the last batch of Chocolate Chip cookies I made the previous night. James and I were discussing the DMV and he said "Sweet, now I get to be a dick to everyone who ISN'T cool and lives in CA! I get to be one of those assholes!" LOL The things he says sometimes just crack me up. He also came up to me and started grabbing random body parts and said "I bet I'm the only one allowed to touch this, and this, and this, oh and these..." as he continued to molest me as I tried to not get dish soap in my face as I was twitching and laughing. When I came home from school I noticed a new pimple. I had decided it was from eating sweets/cookies, which I gave to my teacher who kept moaning as he ate it so now i have to make a batch for class next week. I was in the mirror and asked James why pimples decided to invade my face, he said he's convinced all the ugly girls are hexing me because they are jealous of my beauty. I swear, I must find his book of smooth lines.
I set up my little Christmas Village and it didn't turn out as I had hoped. I think I need to go buy more accessories and props. It looks rather sad and empty.
After the amazing surprises Friday night, James took me to see Role Models and we both laughed and enjoyed it very much. We came home and got drunk by finishing a bottle and a half of wine. Sophistication drinking ftw. We watched tv and discussed the books he had gotten me at the bookstore, how we loved old books and I sniffed them and he looked at me and we both said how when we have a house with a nice library, these are the books we want lining our shelves. It made me feel so warm hearing him say that.
Saturday I took Mayra hiking to a new trail and she about pissed her pants. She was TERRIFIED at the "Mountain Lion Habitat" signs warning of it being a mountain lion wilderness park. I kept hiking in and she was steps behind me saying, "Claudia, please, stop, let's go back!! I don't want to do this! I'm scared!" I laughed at her thinking she was just a wuss but she indeed was so frightened she headed back out. I went after her as she hurried out to the entrance of the trail. We had to wait til she saw more than 2 sets of people walk in before us. We got a good hour and a half or hiking in and headed back out. James and I later went to rent Wall•E and curled up on the sofa and I kept going "Awwwww" every 5 minutes. Incredibly adorable.
Sunday was spent quietly. I made biscuits and gravy for breakfast and we watched Akira. Later that evening we spent a good hour at the book store and eating Long John Silvers which I hadn't done in SO long.
I'll kill two birds with one stone. Keri had been asking that I post more of my artwork, so here it is.
I'm working on an art piece for a Secret Santa among my forum dieter buddies. We've grown to be like family and we're really excited since the theme was 'home made gifts' so we're making each other presents! :)
This is whom I am working on:
Linh:
What I have so far (far from being done)
There's still TONS of detail that needs to be added (ears, braids, shirt, shadows and all her make-up color will be done in photoshop) so I am not done yet. I also need to either work in this background or do something totally different. I'm not sure yet which to go with.
I have about a week left before I need to get it printed and framed to ship to Texas. :)
Finals are next week, i can't wait for this term to be OVER.
