Weekend Recap.

Friday: my friend had arranged a "pitcher party" at brothers.

Basically, you have a 2-hour window to consume 15 pitchers and 2 pizzas. All for only $25!

no surprise: consumption led to the devolution of shellbell.

Which means that saturday, i did this:

On Sunday, mom called to see if i had gone to church.

I had not, but i did go shopping.

I told mom it was pretty much the same since I had felt sanctuary and refuge in the store, not to mention made a very sizable donation.

(just waiting for the lightning to strike me, you might want to stand a good 15ft away)

Do I love this, or hate this?

(the vest, not the shirt)

Can you decide for me, please?

GPOYW.

I'm Hiding -edition

Beggars Can't be Choosers.

I've been on the hunt for a chair to fill the new, empty corner of my apartment.

I have a budget of roughly zero dollars, and really picky tastes.

Should be easy, no?

Well (surprise, surprise) it's not.

I can't find anything.

That's not true.

I can't find anything that i can get. I've found lots of delicious looking full priced items, but nothing i'm allowed to adopt.

craigslist and the thrift stores are complete crap. Sure, i've found some good deals there before, but that's when you're constantly looking, and you've got lots of time until to find something.

[whiny voice] I don't want to be patient. I want it now.

This is the epitome of what i'd want:

(unfortunately, this has an $1,200 price tag)

ugh. I guess i'll keep looking.

I'm sure i can get a nice folding chair to fill the void in the meantime.

I Did It!

Boo yeah. Suck it, Deadline.

I was able to clean, purge, and rearrange my entire apartment over the course of this week.

Here's a crappy cell phone video of what the living room now looks like.

(it's really more for my parents, who have been hounding me non-stop about the status of this endeavor. I doubt the rest of you even care what it looks like... 10pts if you can guess what show is on the tv though)

except for the poorly hung artwork, i am quite happy with the new layout. It makes the room look much bigger. And I am hoping to get a comfy chair and ottoman for the empty space in the corner.

Y'all are more than welcome to come over for a fancy-schmancy party.

(just make sure you bring the food, alcohol, and entertainment)
