Panduh!

This week has flown by! Thank goodness, as it was not good. I did have a somewhat decent Valentines Day, though. We had a fancy dinner in the city, which was very nice & extra delicious. I hope the rest of you had an enjoyable Heart Day, as well. [=

I am hopeful for a good weekend. I look forward to staying in and getting some housework completed. For once, I don’t really feel like going anywhere and doing anything this weekend. Quick! Call a doctor, I must be sick!

I hope you all have a great one!

I don’t know if you people have heard, but a Denver anchor was bitten in the face by a Argentina Mastiff while on the air. Here is a news article from Yahoo, for all of my two readers to check out. Now, they say that they have cited the owner for violation of the leash law and not having the dog properly vaccinated and they’ve quarantined the dog for 10 days for evaluation.

Um.. yea. I watched the video of the actual dog bite (you can find it on youtube if you are dying to see it), and yea that lady had it coming to her. You could clearly see the dog was stressed and was going to react negatively. The anchor lady shouldn’t have went in for the kiss that led to reconstructive surgery. Learn to read body language, people!

If I see some cute looking dog on the street, regardless of size, I’m not gonna kneel down and get all up in its face and ask for kisses. I’ve been bit by a dog before and it wasn’t pleasant.. wasn’t my fault or anything. I was a kid at my grandparent’s house and I was out playing when all of a sudden this strange, aggressive dog comes out of nowhere charging at me. It bit me on the leg as I ran away. I was pretty much scared of any dog, for awhile after that, but obviously I have conquered my fear.

The whole thing makes me mad in general because they blame the dog & owner and not the anchor. It just goes to show that people are ignorant when it comes to animals. Just because it looks cute & seems happy, doesn’t mean it really is.

I have so much I want to say about Pit Bulls and other breeds that are stereotyped into the “always aggressive” category, but I just don’t know where to begin and I’m just you all don’t want to hear me rant about it either.

Speaking of dogs, I’m going to go feed my little one now.

Nutella & ricemellow spread onto a rice cake. Yes. So delicious and dangerously addicting.

What are your favorite snacks?

Rihanna – We Found Love

I lovelovelove this song. I am not much of a Rihanna fan, but this song is awesome and makes me want to dance. The video made me cry the first time I watched it, not gonna lie.

Yea, I messed up on blogging for the month. I missed two days. It started out with Saturday being very brutal and distracting. It was not a very good mental day and by the time I realized I needed to blog, it was after midnight. /shrug. Oh well. I got pretty far, though, which I am proud of, at least.

I am still keeping up with my photo project, though. On day 76. Having the iPhone makes it easier and more convenient to take photos. Even though, I feel bad for neglecting my DSLR.

Hope everyone had a good weekend & holiday. <3

Yesterday was pretty good. It was probably one of the best Thanksgivings I’ve had in a long time. I spent a good part of the day in the kitchen and then finally we ate an early dinner around two. It was delicious. We even sat at the dining room table (we cheated and pulled the TV into the room. xD)! We had eaten and the dishes were washed all by 3:30 in the afternoon. I was pleased.

Later, we lounged about and tried to fight off sleep due to being overstuffed. So sleepy! I could barely hold my eyes open.

I eventually got bored and was feeling quite cabin feverish so I suggested to go to the late night showing of The Muppets. Good call on my part. I enjoyed the movie immensely and laughed at all the silly jokes. I am such a kid and I refuse to ever grow up. Ever! I will also admit to becoming teary eyed during a couple parts. I was thankful as my bad idea was becoming quite dry and itchy. Talk about perfect timing. Either way, I can’t wait to get my Muppets t-shirt that I ordered a couple of weeks ago from Threadless.

We didn’t really do too much today. I slept until noon, just about. I’ve played some WoW and wasted time on the internet. That’s about it. Nice relaxing day, for sure.

Have a good weekend, people.

So, I did a little painting today. I have never done it before other than back in grade school art class or with water colors when I was super young.

I’m being crafty and painting on an old window frame that was in this house and I decided to keep it when we got our windows replaced this spring. I chose this particular window because it had an old faded rainbow sticker on it, and yea, I love rainbows. I noticed that the neighbors upstair window also has the same rainbow sticker. I’m thinking maybe there were two little girls that in these houses and were rainbow buddies… that’s what I like to think, at least.

I’m not finished with my simpleton work of art yet, but when I’m done I’ll be sure to post here. What I have so far I do like, other than one thing. I can just wash it off with soap and water and start all over, thankfully, since its on glass.

I didn’t really know where to begin when it came to painting. I just randomly chose paints and brushes at Hobby Lobby. I hope I picked the right stuff, but whatever, it seems to be getting the job done, this far. I just need to go pick up a couple more paints and something to set it once I’m done.

Enough babble about my crappy art projects..

I need to finish getting my grocery list together. I’m making thanksgiving dinner for James and I this year, and I’m really looking forward to it. We were going to have tofurky sandwiches, but I decided against that. I like tofurky and all, but I want something a little heartier. Either way, I’m excited. <3

Circa Survive – Frozen Creek

Lovelovelove this.

Not really feeling any better today. Back is still hurting like a jerk. Face is still not functioning properly. Sense of taste is still missing. I don’t really feel like doing anything other than laying down, but its too painful to even do that because of my back. So, I get to just kinda sit here and aimlessly wander around the internet for a million hours.

I do kinda want a coffee, though. I’m addicted to Peppermint Mochas. I wish I had the proper tools & things to make my own at home. That would be sweet.

I think next Monday I will do a Meatless Monday with photos & a recipe.

I don’t know what it is about hats, particularly beanies, that I absolutely can’t get enough. My recent find is this cupcake hat. Sure, it was expensive, but I didn’t care. I got super excited about it and had to have it. That is all me. I would’ve hated myself forever if I walked out of that store hat-less. Hat-less in Seattle.

Despite acquiring sprinkles, I have felt uber crappy this week. I think its the medicine I’m taking for the Bell’s Palsy. I was reading in the pamphlet and it had too many side effects to list. Either way, the medicine is a hit or miss. It could help or it couldn’t. Currently, its making my face feel like it got ran over by a Mack truck. That’s pretty cool.

I think I may go make James endure a chick flick. I am in one of those moods.

Hope every one else had a good weekend.

- As cute as some shoes are, they are not meant to walk around in a mall for hours.

- The best things are the simplest, like little mini toys from those quarter machines. Especially Hello Kitty ones!

- Jalapenos are the most amazing food.

- It gets hot in malls. Do not wear extra clothing.

- Jewelry makes me happy. SHINY!

- I will never outgrow Hello Kitty.

- I have suddenly become interested in shoes.

- I want a koala hat.

- I learned how to move the “music” icon on my iPhone so it doesn’t randomly start playing music from my pocket.

- I like boy clothes that have already been worn by a specific boy.

- I want to go to an arcade that has retro games like PacMan & Pinball Machines.

- I love daytrips.<3

I try and make friends and get myself out there socially and it just backfires in my face. It takes a lot of effort to just even think about participating in some sort of social event/gathering, much less going to one. Here I am thinking I’ve made some sort of progress. Nope. I have a big, fat rejection stamp on my forehead. Cool. Thanks. Just what I always wanted.

I don’t handle rejection in any form well at all. It basically tears me apart. I feel like a giant baby, but that is just don’t know how to handle it otherwise.

I wish I was cool, not awkward, and I had tons of friends that I could do & share things with, but I don’t. My only friends are online and it makes me feel absolutely pathetic sometimes. No sir, I don’t like it. I wish I could change it, but I need help in order to do so. FML.

I think I will stay perpetually drunk until January. Seems to be a reoccurring thing to happen around this time of year. It doesn’t help that 11/11/11 is just right around the corner and my wish isn’t going to come true.

I welcome back my good friend, Martini.
