liz's laundry

december outfits - red and/or green every single day.  it took me maybe an hour to assemble these outfits [more than enough for the 18 days i work this month] and ... it amazingly allows me to wake up at 7:45, a full hour past my alarm, and still make it to work at 8:10.  epic.

frank interlude

look at the little turd's adorable fluffy face.  could you get mad at it sleeping/shedding on your pillow eeeevery single day?  this was totally frank circa 2007

homage to my belt

earlier this eve when i knelt [aka fell]
i could have sworn that i felt
an ever slight loosening in my belt
a clear plastic strip that doth svelte

i nearly could burn or glue or melt
the broken bit into a welt [on my finger..]
oh this tragic tale life hath dealt
once more into the veldt

thank god for amazon prime.

calendar boxes

not boxes for calendars.  dear god i hope no one has need for boxes to store calendars.  put that shit in the recycling bin.  or if youre a hoarder like me... find calendar pages on your desk in dec 2012 from a 2011 calendar.  yup.  jeez.

but rather, these are boxes made from square calendar pages.  you know the kind - overpriced [or bought in february for 90% off] oversized calendars with the brightly printed slightly heavy cardstock with matte pages.  tutorial below shameless copied from how about orange but with some additional steps for clarification.  or further confusion.

thanxmas

*edit - i changed the title from thanksxmas to thanxmas.  cant believe i didnt come up with that before.  jeez.
