Merc, that is truly amazing. I'm glad things are going well for you at the lab! And Gi, thanks! I didn't come up with the shirt idea, so I can't take credit for that, but I take full credit for finding and buying it. My brother is getting someone to make me a jersey, too. I'm excited.
I think I may need an intervention. I'm in the process of going through all the stuff we have "stored" in our spare room, and there is currently very little floor space in the room because I have piles of crap everywhere. Today, I decided to start going through the piles one by one, and I started by pulling all the toys I had out into the living room to sort through them:
Haha I'm sure Joel wishes I would...I just really like toys? I used to work at Toys R Us, so I started collecting a lot of stuff...... Sorry about the size, I'm trying to fix it and it isn't working...
Yeah...I've got 11 plastic buckets in my closet now. Full of toys. I can't help it...it's an addiction...
Yeah, they are. :redface: At least there's more floor visible in the spare room now. I'm making progress!
Hidden, if I go into that room, I may just disappear. . . and never come back! Speaking of toys, my little brothers and sisters are in possession of my upteen amount of Beanie Babies. . . I just couldn't throw them away. :redface:
I don't, much to my dismay. I always wanted to get the Harry Potter lego sets, but I never had enough money...someday, I'll talk my husband into letting me get them. Maybe. Joel tells me the same thing! I tried really hard to get rid of stuff...but I kept most of it. :redface: It's cute that you gave them your beanie babies! My sister's fiance has a ton of them, and she tried to get him to give them away, but he wouldn't.
My nephew gave us all the lego he didn't want anymore (boxes full) and it also had some Harry Potter stuff. Not sure my little brother would agree with sending it to you, though!
Haha Joel would probably agree with your brother...so I guess maybe it's better that the Harry Potter legos stay in Belgium.
lol, there's nothing wrong with being a little sentimental. We women are prone to it, so we might as well be proud of it!
We made the front page of the newspaper for day one of the festival. Pretty cool, eh? The first two days were indeed a blast...
Cake I made today: Doesn't look extremely impressive or anything, but at least it doesn't look like it's been thrown to someone's head. Didn't work out exactly how I wanted it to, cause the buttercream was getting way too soft because of the heat... but yeah, better than nothing I guess!
