I ordered some stocking from stockingirl.com last week... I got these (pink leopard) and these in Antique Pink~ They came in today, but sadly the seamed stockings look too long for me T___T


But these are so awesome XD

Oh man I never did a follow-up post about a crappy cellphone pic I posted months ago~ Last year I did a little photoshoot for missmeganmaude for an ad for the Gothic & Lolita Bible *___*



I finally bought a copy for myself, yay! I don't have the original file on hand of the actual ad or pic we used but I found this one from the ones I received



Just a random post! Actually someone on egl posted asking for models... Time&Pics for Handmade Goodies = awesome. Anyway, I sent this pic along, and I wanted to post here too ^_^;

Finally got Windows 7 working right on my netbook after fighting with it all day yesterday. I haven't played around with it too much, but so far so good. I'll probably have a mini-review later~

Snoop Dogg & Martha Stewart make mashed potatoes... we couldn't stop watching...

Three things that make me happy!

1. The scent of honeysuckle in the evening
2. Eating & reading
3. Google Reader

It's been driving me MAD... The strong smell of honeysuckle in the evenings lately, I love it so! I wish I could capture that scent and keep it forever. There is a mass amount of bushes near the house so in evening I can go out and enjoy it now. I've been looking forward to this time for a while now, I'll be sad when they leave and take their beautiful happy-inducing scent away... It's a shame there isn't a bush of gardenia around, else I'd be in heaven I think *___* Anyway, I went so far as to Alchemy/request a perfume on etsy, hopefully someone will pull through~

Eating and reading, I'd sort of forgotten how much I enjoy doing both at once ^^ I had normal order Watership Down and The Plague Dogs for me after I spotted then at the bookstore... The Plague Dogs came first, I am about half-way through the book~ In the beginning I felt like many passages were too... I don't know, wordy, but then again it's been a while since I last read a book that wasn't Harry Potter ^^; I am totally hooked into the story now.. Hopefully Watership Down will come in soon as I'm sure I'll be finished by the week's end. The bag of potato chippies I'm eating at the same time? They'll be gone by tomorrow evening, no doubt. I have a jar of rice syrup that I still haven't opened, so tomorrow I might finally try using it to make cookies (I have been trying to cut down on my candy/sugar intake, slowly...)

Many thanks go to naesa for recommending Google Reader a few months ago... OMG, this is my favorite thing ever! I had been getting into following a variety of blogs outside of LiveJournal, but other blog sites don't have a 'friends list' type feature like LJ, so it's hard to keep up with 20+ random bloggers across the internets... Then the gods smiled down at me for once and Kristy posted about using Google Reader, and now I have been abusing it mercilessly. 63 subscriptions ranging from Anachrotech blogs to Wedding crap. Thank you Google, for existing.

I'm still convinced that Skatha needs this for Halloween, or really, just for my amusement:



TOO CUTE!!!

We have these mutant patches of clovers around here... One day I found 17 four-leaf clovers in one go ^^ There are clovers stashed away in books all over the place, there are at least another 5 outside that I've left... I finally went and looked up how four-leaf clovers come to exist~

It is debated whether the fourth leaflet is caused genetically or environmentally. Its rarity suggests a possible recessive gene appearing at a low frequency. Alternatively, four-leaf clovers could be caused by somatic mutation or a developmental error of environmental causes. They could also be caused by the interaction of several genes that happen to segregate in the individual plant. It is possible all four explanations could apply to individual cases.

*yawn*

According to legend, each leaflet represents something: the first is for hope, the second is for faith, the third is for love, and the fourth is for luck.

Anyway, yesterday I was checking my mutant patch #2, and I found something I haven't found in quite a while:



A five-leaf clover! Score! I feel extra lucky now.

Two of my favorite things one!



Pin-ups and energy drinks. Yes, that sticker does in fact say $0.60. Hurrah Big Lots, you give me such weird crap for cheap~<3

I would try to explain this video to you all before you watch it, but it'd rather... well, here're some highlights:

Horse Mask
Mushrooms
Dancing
7 minutes of WTFness!?
Not really sfw

Just watch it! You may or may not thank me in the end.

Uuuuuhg, I went to bed earlier and managed to fall asleep, only to wake back up at 2:30 ;o; Not fair!

Also, Beowulf for Xbox is totally made of suck and fail. Do not buy!

In addition... I went to the passport office today to send out my passport stuff. As it turned out, what I thought was my birth certificate is, in fact, NOT my birth certificate. So now I have to order the real deal. What a pain... I mean, I guess I should have known, as it doesn't have nearly as much info on it as Josh's, but, you know, it says 'Birth Registration Certificate' at the top.

Blaaaaaah. I don't know. I want to go back to sleeeeep!

So, when LJ decided it was going to have ads, it didn't bother me, because I had a paid account (many thanks again to chaiya for buying me some more time over the hols ^.~).

I was under the impression though, that only Sponsered+ account would be subjected to the ads though, and that Basic accounts would be ad-less. Apparently this is not so, as I'm seeing ads freaking everywhere >__< Also, damn. LJ takes a long freaking time to load, and sometimes times out now that I'm not with a paid account.

Oh well. Maybe once I get some monies I'll see how willing I am to drop them on a paid account again.

Anyway. ( WHICH IS MORE CREEPY? Cicek Vs Giant Piggy Bank )

I have a lot of weird things.
