This is a sign finals are over and I got my grades:

At Della's wedding on Saturday.

Today I got a giant inflatable dolphin, about 5 feet long.

I have no room for it. Would anyone like to adopt it?

EDIT: It's been claimed by a 10 year old with a swimming pool.

I got my hair cut today. The stylist asked if I had my hair chemically straightened, because she was surprised at how long, straight, stiff and stubborn it was. =(

She curled it for me, but it's already rebelling and turning back into the tangled mess it likes to become when I try to do anything other than put it into a ponytail.

I haven't sculpted since high school, so I decided to make delicious things by gluing knick-knacks onto ceramic doll plates.

Here's a donut ring:



And a few more:

( Cake and sushi! )

Today I finally opened an etsy account. I had resisted before, thinking I would buy too much cute stuff.

It doesn't count if you're buying crafting supplies, right?

One of my roommates graduated early and moved out, so if you know anyone (female preferred) looking for housing in Davis, please let me know!

Rent is $580 a month for your own room, including gas, water, cable and internet. We split the PG&E bill.

The place is in South Davis on the W bus line to campus. It's a four bedroom house with a washer/dryer in the garage.

The lease is open-ended; we come and go as we please.

. . . but this screenprint fabric is so lovely.

Decision, decisions . . .

Yesterday at work I found out I am now an "Assistant III," when I had to sign some paperwork.

I don't even know when I became an Assistant II.

After being very busy for the past several weeks, this weekend I will finally have a bit of time to do several things I've been looking forward to:

- make potato pancakes
- see a movie
- eat Greek food at the restaurant that was closed the last time I went
- stuff my face at a local pastry shop

I firmly believe that furniture should not have faces and butts.

Sky Mall believes differently: http://www.skymall.com/shopping/detail.htm?pid=102174152&c=



Can you imagine waking up at night, getting a glass of water, and completely freaking out because you think some pervert in his underwear broke into your home?

This is the Day of Half-Priced Chocolate.



I have 5 packages of candy from the holiday. Please help me eat them?

Wednesday night:
Heart-shaped chocolate cupcakes (with chocolate frosting and pastel M&Ms) to pass out Thursday (Valentine's Day)

Saturday afternoon:
Apple cinnamon bread (for potluck, and for fun)
Brown sugar lemon bars (for potluck)

Sunday morning:
Chocolate brownies (for small dinner party)

Mmmm.

Instead of the rose-shaped buttons I was looking for, I found heart-shaped buttons with roses in the middle. After making most of the coat during winter break, I finally finished putting on the buttons, making button holes and putting lace on the pockets yesterday.
