Ghetto words/art

Guys. Someone should slap me.

Because I swear, if I heard anyone say any of the following out loud, I would want to slap them.

But seriously.

"Wut da hayell" = "What the hell" and "Errthang/boday" = "Everything/body"  Is probably uttered from my mouth at least once a day.  Last time I checked, although brown, I'm not black.  My mouth needs to stop having these slip ups.

Also, I forgot to mention in my last post that I now have a quasi-job.  My dad has this teleseminar coaching thing going on and recently his tech guy quit on him so I am now the replacement because my dad was like, "You like messing around with coding. Here, run our website. "  The job isn't hard, it's just tedious and time consuming because I'm pretty much just taking care of the website, fixing any glitches, setting up links and downloads, creating new events and pages... You know. Typical webmaster type stuff.  My dad and his business partner said that they would pay me for all the work I've done, but I made sure that I stressed to them that I'm not a trained professional.

I mean, guys. In middle school I watched the movie Hackers (Jonny Lee Miller still makes me swoon) and went through this phase where I actively sought out learning hacks and coding, but much like my anime phase, it sort of fizzled out.

But yeah.  I'm not going to complain about getting money.  The only thing that stresses me out is when there's a live event going on and I have to make sure everything is posted IMMEDIATELY after the event is over, meaning that I have really odd 'work' hours. Luckily, my hours are 100% flexible and my boss also happens to be my dad.

Another thing I forgot to post about was the fact that I added more things to my Etsy shop!

Dalek/kitten cards

Hedwig inspired chain scarf

Fanart for the movie My Blueberry Nights

Random tea cup painting

So yeah.  I sold another wand yesterday, and I'm really excited about making it because the buyer requested that the handle look like a wolf, so it was definitely a fun thing to design.  I'll post pictures when I'm done with it.

Also, this entire week I've been following the Blogger Family Reunion--- I AM SO GOING NEXT YEAR. I don't care if I have something important going on, I WILL RESCHEDULE. I can't wait for my shirt to come in the mail... I'll wear it with pride and know that I was there in spirit, sort of, because I did so much Facebook stalking.  To everyone that went: I'm glad you guys had fun! :)

Weekend Shenanigans.

This weekend was centered around my friend Rebekka's 18th birthday. We continued on with our (3 year?) tradition of having a sleepover at her house and watching a movie. Every year I hand make her a super awesome card and since her birthday is in the middle of summer I usually get her gift while I'm on vacation.  Sadly, I didn't go anywhere special this year so in order to maintain the epicness level of her gifts I decided to do a little online shopping.

I ended up getting her a Merlotte's Bar and Grill shirt (from the show True Blood) and matching honey badger t-shirts for us, as seen below:

Look how long my hair is!

Then for the rest of the night we ate a shit-ton of gummy bears (seriously, like half of a LARGE bag), laughed about people that we graduated with who are now preggers, and all around had a good gossip session while we watched Downton Abbey season 1.  We were so sugar-high that anything that was even remotely funny sent us into a fit of giggles.

The next morning I had to wake up early and work-out, which was a severely bad idea because I was so tired. BUT I made sure to work my ass off extra hard because I knew that I would be eating a lot of junky-type food today when I went to my friend Andria's house.

We had a mini 'art girls' reunion and pretty much chilled on her bed from 2:30-7:30 eating vodka gummy bears, oreos, white chocolate chips, and drinking screwdrivers.  Despite drinking more than the other girls and eating A LOT of gummy bears, I didn't even get a buzz.  I found it hilarious, because besides the few sips of alcohol that my parents let me drink for holidays, the last time I had a serious drink was maybe the beginning of junior year...? I've never been shit-faced, but I've always chalked that up to my "social" drinking habits that dictate me only having 3 or 4 drinks tops. I guess I have good self control?

Andria apologized to me repeatedly due to the fact I was the only one not buzzed, but it was all cool.  I have to work-out tomorrow so it's better that I do so without a massive migraine.  Anyway, we're in the process of having another 'art girls' reunion before we all part ways, and there will probably be drinking, but hey, we're all of legal age.  Well, if we lived in England we would be....

Oh, before I forget, while I was at Andria's she gave me the souvenir she got me while she was in San Francisco at the beginning of summer. IT'S AN OCTOPUS CUP!

If you click the picture and enlarge it you can see my rainbow graffiti nails!

It's freaking awesome, and I've already brewed 2 cups of tea just so I could use it... My family thinks that I'm crazy. Oh well.  Personally, I think that it looks a bit like Cthulhu, which makes it even cooler.

Needless to say, I'm going to be drinking more tea/coffee.

This is what happens...

...when you have a Facebook conversation with someone that you don't really know.

Honestly, this is the most fun I've had talking to a quasi-stranger in quite sometime.  Usually when guys chat me up on Facebook they usually just tell me I have a nice profile picture and try to get my number (I usually promptly delete said fellows from my friends list), but this conversation was purely fun, random banter.

Anyway, it all started when this guy posted a status that said "EVERYONE HATES ME TODAY, OKAY."

To which I responded: "Maybe you should change your name to Chris."  I mean, a status like that was begging for a smart ass comment.

And then he unexpectedly IMed me:

T: That wouldn't help, I'm not black...

Me: Swim in Nutella. Problem solved.

T: That sounds legit. And profitable.

Me: Also delicious.

T: Never had Nutella, soooo...

Me: Boy, you cray. Also, you have no idea what love is.

T: Really? And Nutella will teach me that?

Me :Among other things, yes.

T: What are the other things?

Me: 1. Happiness can be found in a jar. 2. Hazelnut is superior to all nuts. 3. Under no circumstances is it ok to willfully listen to Nickleback.

T: I hate Nickleback.

It is the scourge of music.

Me: Tell me about it. It's a good thing you don't like them because if you did I would have to send you a letter full of anthrax.

T: I already decide if I'm friends with someone or not based on if they like Nickleback. I've also moved that up to dating. I don't care how long I've been dating you, if I find a single Nickleback song on your iPod I'm gone

Me: That's the best way to avoid heartache. That, and Nutella.

T:...but I've never had Nutella...

Me: Have you ever experienced heartache?

T: That's debatable. 

Me:Ok boi, I'm just gonna be straight up wit chu. You need to go out and buy yourself a jar of overpriced Nutella so that you can enlighten yo ass wit wonderment.

T: Will that console my broken heart?

Me: Yes. And put meat on your bones. And motivate you to work out. And help you meet the love of your life.

T :I don't need any of those things.

Me: Well maybe there's a reason everybody hates you today.

T:...what would that be

Me: I was alluding to the fact that you haven't ever had Nutella.

T: Maybe that is the reason everyone hates me...

Me: I am a Ravenclaw. I know things.

T: So am I!

Me: Birds of a feather...

T: And what are you alluding to?

Me: Nothing... I was just making a Ravenclaw related follow-up comment.

T: I appreciate that.

I was surprised when I was sorted into Ravenclaw.

Me: What house did you think you were going to be placed in?

T: Slytherin...

Me: Well it's a good thing you didn't get the Dark Mark tattooed on your forearm yet. That would have been awk.

T: Well, I quickly became the leader of Ravenclaw. So it's cool

Me: What do you mean?

T: I took over the house, didn't you hear?

Me: No... I graduated Hogwarts and I'm now an Auror.

T: I assassinated Flitwick and took his position...

Me: Impressive. No Slytherin would ever be smart enough to think of that.

T: So I am a Ravenclaw...huh

Me: Ay, as much as I've enjoyed talking with you, quasi- friend, I'm late for a very important event. Just kidding. It's time for my bubble bath. SWEET DREAMZ.

T: Hahahahahaha

Quasi-friend

You're intelligent.

Goodnightz

The beauty of this conversation stems from the fact that we were indeed strangers (despite attending the same high school) and so we had the liberty to say whatever we wanted.  Gosh. If only all of my Facebook IM conversations were like this.
