Amy comes today! *squirm*

And my new portfolio case comes tomorrow. Express delivery ftw!

Note to self: Make a "yay" icon.

I just spent a ton of time searching for my type book, and it was exactly where it should have been. But I'm an idiot and didn't look there first.
:| I want to find my design 5 process book, but idk where that is. (Not where it should be.)


Okay, so. I got "promoted" at Kohl's. I'm now jewelry specialist. Which is basically supervisor. But, sadly, I will not be doing adset as I will be stuck in the jewelry fishtank full time now.
And I told them I have a degree. I told them I'm still looking for something else. I told them I've been having interviews and I have another set up first week off december. But they still wanted me. They need me for however long they can, apparently.
Because I guess everyone that works in that department totally sucks.

But it's full time. With a pay raise. So whatever, right? As long as they're not super mad when I leave for something else then it doesn't matter I guess.



I went bowling last night with my coworker because it was his friend's birthday and he didn't know anyone else that was going. We arrived super late because we were late at work and we got super lost. So we bowled one game.

But get this, the girl whose birthday it was is from Buffalo. She was so mega excited when she saw my Sabres pin.
Also yesterday I went to Borders and the cashier noticed my Sabres pin and he's from Amherst. And he said he just had a customer earlier that was also from Buffalo.

wth small world.

So the Mentalist was kinda dumb last night.

Maybe I just get too into TV, but that episode annoyed me. }:
But it also made me tear up because poor puppy Jane is all sad and vindictive.
(Simon Baker reminds me of a goldendoodle puppy. My mom agrees with me. So thus puppy.)

Heroes was confusing too, but I'm kind of used to that.

I don't feel like updating about life.

Here's a picture of UntitledCat trying to find the other cat:

I was waken up by a phonecall wanting me to come in for an interview. The only time I can is the noon slot today. D:'
BUT I have puffy eyes. ;-;
I just drank a ton of water and I'm going to try some puffy eye remedies. If not I'll just have to try makeup to decrease the look. Or maybe say allergies because my throat is all scratchy anyways, too.

WTF bad luck. *whine*

Oh this is totally going to be my next project: Kinda Spats. SPATS! omg.

I think I have a pair of shoes that would work perfectly with them.


I'm also having a ton of fun messing with stuff for my Xmas cards. :O

Damnit, I don't want to work tonight. I'm on a roll with creative stuff. And CM is on tonight.
I should take all this creative energy and put it to real use, like job hunting. Whatevs. This is productive. "productive".

I totally just noticed that when I cleaned out my icons a while ago, I never replaced all of them again. So I'm at 32/40. D:'
I'm going to have to root around in my external drive for icons or pictures to make into icons. I don't have any fandom pics on this computer anymore!

I bought some badass awesome fleece yesterday. Ima going to sew hats! I should sell them on etsy because fleece is, like, $7 a yard. And a hat takes me about 20minutes to make. And people on etsy charge $30 for fleece hats.
And people fall for it! Damn.


Can I also say that I'm surprised that not as many people answered the Twilight Saga for today's writer's block?
What (if any) books would you ban from a high school library? Are there certain subjects that you feel are inappropriate for teenagers regardless of literary merit?

I really don't get why people hate those books/movies so much. Sure they kinda suck, whatever. You honestly just look like an egotistical jackass when you go flip out about them.
Plus, srsly, those movies are kinda full of eye-candy NGL.

Dear uterus,
I hate you.
Love,
Grace

):

I shouldn't have complained. I hardly slept at all last night.
Bah. :|

SO everyone is doing it, I guess I should soon too.


Anyone want a Christmas card?
(I make my own :p)

I went to McDonalds last night with some coworkers after work. And we spent a good amount of time discussing which state has the nicest license plate. lol.

I had to get new tires for my car today and when I plugged in my iPod on the drive home I noticed that the guys who did it messed with the bass and treble on my stereo. Beyond weird.


I have last night's Mentalist downloaded and ready, but I think I might just go to sleep. :|
I've been way tired lately. I'm super stressed and depressed (rhymelol), but I've been suppressing it so much that I think it's just building up and coming out as sleeping for 10hours and falling asleep on the couch while drinking coffee (well, not while drinking but in the middle of a cup). bah.

Or maybe I'm getting sick again. Who knows. All I know is it better not be PMS because that's way way too early. }:

Lol.


Life hasn't been too interesting. I dunno. Work. When I'm not working I'm home doing stuff like sketching and job hunting.

I guess if life's been interesting it's been going to my Twitter more than to here. My bad, LJ.

I have to get at least one new tire soon. The one was pretty deflated yesterday. I had to go fill it back up again before work.
Luckily it was fine when I left work again, though. But my coworker had an aircompressor in his car, so he made sure to check it before we all left.

Yesterday my dad made it seem like I had to do it asap. But today he says it can wait. D:' It doesn't look too bad from me looking out the window. But I don't really want to drive all over the dang place on a tire with a slow-leak. :S


UntitledCat just opened the sliding screen-door somehow. I wish I was able to see her do it. :O

Edit: Damnit, I already made one error on this paper-craft and I just started. Bad omen.

Friday night I went to see The Men Who Stare at Goats. :D SO funny. A lot funnier than I thought it would be. Filmed well, good acting. :D Very good.

I've been spending too much time at work, I've decided. Next week should be easier, hopefully I'll be able to get other stuff done. But gaah, exhausted.
Plus everyone at work is sick. Plus every customer is sick. wth people, stay home if you're sick. D:'


The book that I was complaining about last entry came. :D And before December 4th, just as promised.

I put a mirror up against my wall yesterday to decide which shoes went with my outfit the best, and UntitledCat was so confused about the other cat. lol. She kept pawing it, and trying to look around it. Then she looked on the other side of the mirror and did a little confused purr.

Today's plan is to relax and catch up on my TVshows. Then I'm going downtown to do some shopping and see The Men Who Stare At Goats with my mom.

I want to start up sewing again. I can't say it would be any easier or cheaper than buying clothing in, you know, stores. Already made and stuff. In fact I remember how much I totally suck at hemming.
What I want is some nice skirts. Because if I had some nice skirts I could buy those boots I found. Which, btw, actually fit my stupid skinny legs.
I think maybe a simple ALine skirt wouldn't be too terrible to make.

The issue I have with skirts is the same issue I have with pants. My legs are too long. Skirts always fall at stupid places on my legs. So maybe sewing them myself will be easier?
Damnit, I'm so awkwardly shaped. lol.


The shipping date of the book I bought two weeks ago got pushed back another day. Now it says "On/before December 4th". I really wish the website said something about such a total delay in shipping like that. I would have just bought it on Amazon or something. Damnit, abebooks.com
Worst is that it claims to have been shipped already, so I can't cancel my order. They must be sending it by bicycle if it's going to take that long even though it's already shipped. ):

My internet has been down for a few days. This sucks because I, you'know, needed it to job hunt and shit. But, as any extended time away from the internet does to me, it's hard to get back into it. I just stop caring. I think that's a sign of maturity? Whatever.

So today I have to be productive to make up for the lack of productive I was sans internet. Now, I did productive stuff but there's only so much you can do without the internet.


On top of it all I have a pseudo-cold that just won't go away.

Edit: Oh yeah. Also Happy Halloween.

I worked extra hours last night because apparently my life sucks no matter which state I'm in. They kept us until past 11:30 so I got home real late, but decided to watch a movie anyways so I can send it back to NetFlix.

I had gotten Smokin' Aces. And, you know what, Ryan Reynolds won that movie. Very much so. His character was kinda background for the whole thing but then comes up and wins the movie with total badass-ness in the last scene. damn, man.


Okay. I gotta do some productive stuff today. Which includes carving pumpkins and going to the mall probably (productively!)
I gotta:
-clean out computer since it's starting to get overrun by photos and psych screenshots
-job hunt more! durr
-do laundry
-bake/cook something
-pay bills
-job hunt! durrrrr.

Edit: I guess going to the Y with my mom on a guest pass and jogging is also going to be included in there.
