In which I buy stuff I don’t really need like an asshole, but at least it’s all used so I can say I’m “upcycling”! Bought a table today! A used table! A TABLE YOU CAN EAT AT! It’s a brown pub-style table and chairs set, and it’s taller than strictly necessary but I think it’ll […]
In which I shop online… for clothing. Oops. But it’s not like I don’t need clothes. Etsy is crack. Do you know this? OMG a zillion things I could totally wear right now! It turns out that since the mall in this town is half torn down, I doubt Macy’s is going to carry anything […]
In which I publicly admit to stealing resources* from my employer. I’ve been running a little eBay side business from my desk this week. In between calls I’ve watched my auctions, printed shipping labels (with the work printer, on the work paper*), and packed Priority Mail cartons with old electronics (and taped them shut with […]
In which I never got anything this cool from an employer before. Today during our weekly company meeting, admin announced that we wouldn’t really be having a proper Christmas party this year – only a luncheon – but then they got all giggly and ran into the back and then came out and proceeded to […]
In which I am TOTALLY not worthy! Kaje and I had Big Plans for last night. We were going to make epic tostadas with all the fixings! and watch two (or even three!) entire episodes of Doctor Who. But someone – either Netflix or the post office – screwed up royally, and the disc I […]
In which you’d never believe I could be quite this enamoured with something that you’d normally think is not my style, but I love it so, so very much! Over a year ago, Baby Girl turned me on to bidz.com. Last week, I freaked out and bought a couple of rings from them… no reason […]
In which there are fun times, my babies, fun times! Saturday was Sibling Errand Day! My bro and I went to Chevron together and then to Taco Loco for GIHUGENT BURRITOES!!! Later we went to Walmart, where he bought a DVD player and blank media, and I bought some much-needed clothes (a long-sleeved t-shirt, three […]
In which I accumulate. Yesterday, my tax refund was deposited into my account. (I put basically all of it into savings ’cause I’ll need it to see Amma in Seattle at the end of next month.) Yay! Today my PO box contained my new MOO cards! I love MOO cards. So cute. You should get […]
In which I’m still boring and you shouldn’t even be reading this. My new 120Gb hard drive arrived yesterday. I got it so cheap I can hardly stand myself! It came in an envelope instead of a box… I’d forgotten how tiny laptop drives are. It’s still sitting in its anti-static container, waiting to be […]
In which I complete an unpremeditated transaction. I woke up this morning to the sound of my cell phone trilling. I had a text message. The message informed me that my paycheck had been direct-deposited into my account. Money! Yay! During my lunch break this afternoon, I dutifully went to the post office and bought […]
