In my next life, I would like to be a house cat.

Oh yeah.

Lydia taught me how to make these collage things! This one is family photos:

How cool is that!?!

I'm It

This may be a struggle, but I'll see how many I can come up with...

1. I like my microwave popcorn slightly burnt. This could be because I get the low-fat kind which doesn't have much taste and I feel the burntness adds flavor. Maybe I should just get the buttery kind and say to hell with it!

2. I have no memory for how to play card games. People always have to reteach me the games. Sometimes I have a vague idea and just need the details filled in, but I can rarely remember all the rules on my own. I can't remember jokes either, come to think of it. Maybe there is a link there.

3. My eyes water every morning when I get in the car. I suspect it is allergy related, but it is highly annoying. I have to dab with a tissue the whole way to work!

4. Sleazy talk shows make me very uncomfortable. I can't stand people screaming at each other. The other day Maury was on at the car place when I was getting my oil changed, and I had to force myself to sit there and ignore it.

5. I feel weird working in a high school. I feel like I am still a kid and everyone is looking at me.

6. I had to stop watching CSI for a while because I would get scared at night. Is that pathetic?

7. Someday I want to have my own store, either online or an actual building. I want to sell cute unique and handmade things. It's kind of my dream.

OK, that's it for me! And I have no one else to tag!

mm me

Make yourself into an M&M character! It's kind of freaky, but fun. Here's mine:

I look kind of pissed! Oh well. :)

Cake Wrecks

This is one if the funniest blogs: http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/ It's called Cake Wrecks and they post professionally decorated cakes that are somewhat less than lovely.

Here are some of my favorites:

These are just some... there are some hideously ugly cakes out there, people!

avoid shoe entrapment

So they make these recorded announcements at the Atlanta airport warning you to be careful of your shoes on escalators so as to "avoid shoe entrapment". Repeatedly. I know this because I spent about 4 hours there Saturday night and I laughed every time I heard it. SHOE ENTRAPMENT? Seriously.

Well, we are back from our trip to Washington - Seattle and the San Juan Islands. It was truly lovely. I could spend a lot more time out there. So we went up the Space Needle:

Toured Pike Place Market:

and saw Orca whales!
