craft time

Smells & I made this cute Alabama thing for  Smells earlier this evening. The heart's over Etowah county.

christmas lights

This house had the best lights. This picture doesn't do it justice at all, but google did add the sparkles when it uploaded to google+ so that's kinda neat. My aunt, 2 cousins and I were driving around earlier when my aunt gasped and scared us all to death and asked if we could drive up to see these lights. This house was decked out. There was even a projection of santa in the window. I had forgotten how much I enjoyed seeing lit up houses like that. I don't care what my cousins say, the "classy" houses with only white lights are boring and lame. Griswold lights are the only way that's good and right.

one present down

Monogrammed stuff is super popular right now so I thought I'd get in on it. It seems like I'm always making rugs. I'm not though. Cute cute cute.

Only a week until christmas.

I am so so so close to finishing up my christmas shopping. Only 2 more things to get. Here's to homemade, cheap gifts!

play more games

done goofed

I accidentally skipped a post yesterday. I was distracted because I was playing mystery date with Fal, Jenna & Smells!

We also made these little cakes. Aren't they cute?

look at dat huge tree

proven fact

Baking with others is better than baking alone.

It's finally cold again. I was able to use my thing this morning.

Christmas waits for no man

Impromptu  sleepover

lazy sunday

I haven't done shit today. I've just been watching this youtube series Bite Club and lazing around. I love watching British people cook because they use weird measurements and when they taste the food at the end they do it so properly with a knife and fork and little tiny bites. I'm thinking I have diabetes or something because all I want to do is eat special k red berries and macaroons and other sweets. That's a sign probably. Hopefully not. There's too much sickness going on in my family right now, I don't want to add to the pot.

Look at this card from etsy. Isn't it nice? I quite enjoy it.

Xmas tree

Smells, Luke & I decorated for G&P this year & it's not too shabby.

Movie I want to watch: secret life of walter mitty

holiday spirit

I'll tell you something that always cheers me up. People speaking gibberish. I think I'm not alone in this. That's why those bad lip reading videos are so popular. I remember when Bruce Almighty came out, I didn't particularly think that movie was that great, but there's this one scene where Steve Carell is uncontrollably speaking nonsense and it just tickles me to no end. I mean I've seen it enough times to know what's going to happen and each time I don't think it'll get me and it still does. I also love when people are sleep talking. That ridiculous interaction you can have with someone. It's funny stuff.

It's been a long day

Cats wearing sweaters

let's get down to business

to defeat the huns! That song is stuck in my head.

The scariest thing happened today when I was in a drive thru. After I ordered and pulled around there was kind of a long line of cars so I pulled up catty cornered next to this tree. I noticed this moving thing out of the corner of my eye and there was this HUGE tan colored spider building it's web right up into my car. Thankfully I was quick to react and the spider hadn't crossed the window opening threshold so I was able to roll up the window and keep the thing away from me. Seriously this thing's head and body was the size of a nickel. After that I didn't want to roll down my window to pay and get my food because what if the dern thing was on the roof of my car. I mean, I did roll down my window and purchased my food, but later I found a long sticky spider web string stuck to my arm. Really gave me the creepy crawlies. Even just re-telling the story is making me want to shiver about.






"I love sleep. My life tends to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?"

celebrating intellectualism

This is relevant because recently one of my professors saw me open a can of diet dr. pepper and told me that it would kill me because aspartame will give me alzheimer's and cancer. I hadn't seen this video yet and I had no good comebacks so I just threw out my drink. 

snooze

I'm going to blog everyday in December even if it's about nothing. Why not? I like December, I always have. Remember last year when I did this? Lately though I've been in a really bad funk where I've been really unhappy & I've gained a lot of weight & I haven't had any motivations. So I want to have a good & healthy goal that I know I can achieve & maybe that will help.
Earlier today I complained a lot about this sharp pain between my nose & my left eyebrow & my grandmother kept saying it's from lack of sleep because she woke me up "early" this morning. And I said yeah I'm going to go to sleep now & sleep for like 14 hours & Smells was like yeah right you'll stay up like you always do. AND YOU KNOW WHAT. Here I am, still awake. She put some bad juju on me. Just kidding, I'm just addicted to ruining my own life.

Happy December 1st
