Ah, finally I get the chance to post an illicit FROM-WORK entry . . . However, it isn't really giving me that "I'm so baaaad" feeling since I'm taking a break from creating duct tape uuh creations to do this. You see, I've made several duct tape wallets for friends whom I think would enjoy them, but had yet to make one for myself (the Powerpuff Girl wallet was starting to disgust me). So, yesterday I purchased some regular duct tape and some black duct tape and today (after all my work was done) I set about creating. First, I covered my cell phone faceplates with the black duct tape. It looks tacky and cool, I like it. Then, I made the wallet, grey with a couple of black trim pieces. THEN, I went insane and printed out a few different sizes of stars from Word's autoshapes thing to use as stencils and am currently putting the last touches on contrasting-colored star decorations. And to think, I asked for a promotion today. How could things possibly be any better? So I'm SORRY I haven't updated. This week has just been insane. Like, Monday I took my Advanced Argument/Composition midterm at 8:30 AM, then went to Sacramento (2-2.5 hours away) with my family to hang out with my sister, who was there visiting from Phoenix. We ended up having dinner at Outback Steakhouse and my mom tried to convince the waiter to marry my sister, then informed him that I was available, too. That was pretty funny. I ended up telling my sister that if she wanted to come home with us, I would drive her back down there before class one day. So, fast-forward to Wednesday (Tuesday was just school and Josh and stuff anyway), I drove to Sacramento and back, arrived at my Psych class like an hour late, missing the exam, and slept through most of the rest of the class. Then tutoring and whatnot. The whole week has been like that, just crammed. I keep going like "Yes! Tomorrow I get to sleep in! YESSSSSS!!!!" and do convulsive little double fist pumps. But, invariably, someone ruins it . . ."uuh, you have to help your dad move furniture tomorrow morning before the carpet guys get here at 9." And I crumple over and whimper, "You had to take it away from me, didn't you?" OOOH but the best thing in the world right now . . . tomorrow night I am going to Sacramento for the third time this week to see the one and only LIKE DAVID, I am SOOO stoked. I shouldn't even spend any more money but I know I am going to buy like one of everything at their merch booth. And I am contemplating taking some pictures to bring to Sharon and possibly getting something autographed for her because she lives way out in TX and therefore will cry when she finds out I went without her. |
