So, I watched the midnight showing of Harry Potter.

Guh. I can't formulate an actual review just yet, because I am still all caught up in the experience. That, and I am e-fucking-xhausted and am trying to prepare myself for work with the kiddies. Suffice to say, I loved that movie. Yeah, I feel like it skipped around a bit, but I felt that way ( Read more... )

micaturtle and obsessive0514, I swear to god I am still writing your prompt fic. Just still caught up in some real life stuff at the moment and it's taking up a lot of my computer time. DON'T KILL ME. >_Yesterday was one of those unexpectedly awesome days, in which the kids in my class apparently had deemed it 'be nice to the teacher day.' A couple of my favorite kids ( Read more... )

Saw this yesterday: Printer produces personalized 3D chocolate. This is a 3D printer that actually prints chocolate. Goddamn, that is cool. You can come up with your own design, and have this thing choco-print it for you. How awesome is that? I want one of these in my own home.

And for some reason ( Read more... )

So today wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it was, which is wonderful, and I received a beautiful sandwich set of milk glass teacups and plates with a grapevine design from a woman who did not want them. Also, it is thundering heavily outside, which is always cool ( Read more... )

Today is going to be one of those days where I'm just thinking: "Fuck today, today's a wash," all the way through it. It's raining, I can feel my period coming on, and I haven't finished cleaning at all. Screw it, I want it all to be over so I can just sit in a bubble bath with a drink. I guess technically I could do that now, since it's my really ( Read more... )

Happy Mother's Day to all you mommies out there!

So yesterday wasn't a continuous parade of excitement, but I think it's been one of my best days in a while. I just lazed around the house, got ready for Mother's Day, and spent some quality time with the nephew and a pail of sidewalk chalk.
