Here's a morbid thought. If I died right now, my last tweet would be

Just died. DIED. #themindyproject

& I had a little laugh about it.


I'm turning into one of those weirdos that won't watch the end of something because I don't want it to end. I still need to watch the end of the past season of the Walking Dead, the third episode of Sherlock, the last season of Misfits, the last season of HIMYM, etc.
I'm going to watch them eventually, but man, what a trend.

My cousins and I are watching all 3 seasons of Veronica Mars and I am again realizing what a fantastic show it is. So much good.

prediction

Okay so Mindy and Danny started macking on an airplane in the last episode. Steamy. But I have this prediction about next season. I think the airplane will crash land and Mindy and Danny will both hit their heads and they will forget that they started to have a thing and they'll have to learn all over again.

artist lol

I snapchatted this to Smells without a caption and I immediately regretted it because without explanation it just looks like I'm a shitty drawer.

I am, but for this particular drawing I was kind of shitty on purpose because that was the assignment. We had to do blind contours, which is where you draw the outlines of a thing without looking at your paper while you're drawing. It's some kind of animal skull.

First post of the year

Happy new year to you.
So far this year,

• I've read 1 book. (The Art of Falling by Jenny Kaczorowski ) 
• 2 of my great aunts have acquired facebook and they are facebookin' fiends.
• I have been listening to podcasts in my car instead of music, partly because I'm bored with alt nation's music selection at the moment and partly because I'm hoping that through osmosis, the podcasts will make me better at conversations.
• My Mad Fat Diary trailer
• I ordered 2 different school books from 2 different websites and they both got refunded within a few hours because they were out of stock, which I think is a conspiracy.
•  
  
  I doodled this horrible rendition of a bottle and a chair while in art history. I am taking a drawing class this semester and I generally dread drawing, but I'm trying to keep an open mind about it and I'm trying not to avoid drawing, which is what I generally do when I don't like something. I think I mostly don't like to draw because I'm so piss poor at it and "they" say that if you put in 10,000 hours of something then you can call yourself a master. So I'll try that, I guess. 
• I received a flu shot at the request of my dear sweet nurse of a mom. I am not at the 2 week point yet so who knows if I'm flu-y.
• By accident, I discovered that 4 episodes of Friends come on every night on nick at nite at the same time every day & I am so incredibly happy that it does that I even sit through the commercials to watch it. I rediscovered my love of Friends this year.

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.

brr

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

Christmas waits for no man

chilli parade night

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.
