My run of 'things that make my life suck' continues apace, but there was
this bit of good news today...

I was a winner in one of my soap supplies company's Halloween product
contest.

If you've been on my Etsy, you've seen my eyeball bathbomb. For whatever
weird reason they call it a cupcake at the top of the page, but I'm the

• On a total whim today I bought a flocking set and glue pad today.  I have no idea why... but it'll be fun to poke at tomorrow.  I'm thinking fuzzy snowflake tags and possibly some fuzzy penguin cards ( Read more... )

Things I have today:

• A broken tooth.  An inexplicably broken tooth.  And just how the hell does that happen???  I woke up this morning and half of one of my molars was gone.  There was no pain when I *apparently* broke the damn thing and there's none when I eat or drink.  W.T.F?  However, it's minorly annoying, so now that I actually have insurance ( Read more... )

Most towns have bicycles that 'magically disappear' when the rider isn't looking.  My neighborhood has magically APPEARING bikes.  Well, okay, a bike.

In other news, I've been jiggering the Circut to occasionally make the things I want it to make.  I've discovered that if I can, I need to work straight off the machine.  This doesn't work well (or, ( Read more... )
