"I'm already going to hell, but I'd like to at least keep the handbasket."

Hmmm, where to start. Let's outline!!


Friday:

Nothing to eventful happened. After I picked up mom from work and we stopped to do our grocery shopping, we decided to watch a movie. Friday used to be our movie nights, but we haven't done it in awhile so it was kind of nice. I wanted to go to Blockbuster and pick up something, but mom just wanted to go to the house and crash. Anyway, somehow she convinced me to watch 'Shall We Dance' with her. I will admit, it wasn't too bad... Afterwards we watched 'Clue', or at least I did. She went to bed early.

Saturday:

We went to a ladies brunch in the morning. It was for the Women's Ministry at church. It was pretty nice. We broke up into groups to try and decide various activities for us to do. I came up with a Spa Night. I mean, a lot of the ladies work either out of the home or within it and they need a bit of time to themselves to be pampered. That was the idea I had. Not everyone can afford to go to the the regular spa, so I figured we could have one of our own once in awhile. It seemed to go over well. I'm not 100% sure, since we had to leave early.

After that that, we went over to my aunts in order to go through yet more of my grandmother's things for the big sale coming up this weekend. We stopped by the storage unit, got more of the smaller things and a few of the furnishings and brought them back to the house. Then we cleaned up more things and priced them. That was pretty much all we did.

Sunday:

Sunday was church and then after that, mom spread some bug killer on the lawn to see if that would help with the flea problem we've been having lately. She wasn't able to cover the whole back yard... Later, she changed clothes and went over to my aunts to make signs and gift some of the bells my grandma had that we're giving away as gifts. I stayed home because I had laundry to do.

It seems as though there's a full-time data entry position open at mom's work, so it's something I'll be looking into for sure. *crosses fingers*

Well, let's see, today I have to vacuum the floors, find a song for shroomy2003, try and come up with an icon idea for dracschick since she has a bunch of icon space available now, and try and do those other icons I've been meaning to do...

Fandom-wise, quite a bit happened over the weekend. Furuba 124 was released and I squeed mightily. It was a very good chapter. I know flamika will come up with some rockin' icons from it...


And I found a Mikami community! mikami_teru. And, naturally, I joined. *facepalm* I wonder if I should post on there and show off my layout?

And an interesting meme I swiped from xskadi:

Hey, thanks for replying! I always find memes like this to be interesting because I like learning new things about people...

[soleta-nf.livejournal.com]

Ooh, spa night is a great idea! I bet you could find a nutritionist or cosmetician (or even someone from a company like Avon or May Kay) to come for an evening and share tips and pamper people!

Good luck with the job. That sound great!

good luck........

1. Name: Um...Cory
2. Date of birth: 8-6-79 (send me lots of presents!)
3. Where you live: Georgia
4. What makes you happy: friends and happyfuntime!
5. Currently listening/the last thing you listened to: Further - VNV Nation
6. Do you read my journal?: Yeppers!
7. If yes, what makes it especially good or bad?: Your intellectual point of view and the fact that you can mix the most fun interesting things in with your often banal way of talking about your life. It's like your feet are planted firmly on the ground, but you're reaching to the heavens like the rest of us.
8. An interesting fact about you: Pathseeker sleeps with a nightlight, not because Pathseeker is afraid of the darkness, but because the darkness is afraid of Pathseeker. Haha, just kidding
9. Are you in love/do you have a crush at the moment?: I love and crush on alot of people. My emotional boundaries are like jello. But it's interesting that I don't give myself physically that often and it takes years for me to feel physically comfortable with someone. In essence, not importantly, no.
10. Favourite place to spend time: Inside of my mind
11. Favourite lyric: was getan ist, ist getan
12. The best time of the year: Autumn (I picked that out of a hat)

RECOMMEND
1. A film: MirrorMask, because it's weird!
2. A book: Rainbow Tribe: Ordinary People Journeying on the Red Road by Ed McGaa, because it's educational about American Indians
3. A band, a song, or album: Wolfsheim (most of their songs, but especially the one's in German; so insightful.), because it's German!

PLUS
1. One thing you like about me: Your open-mindedness. I mean, you seems that you are open to new experiences and your willingness to speak to anyone about nearly anything.
2. Two things you like about yourself: My creativity and my compassion
3. Look at my friends-list and tell what you like about one of our mutual friends: Well, this is hard because the "mutual friend" we'd have isn't quite a mutual friend because you haven't added her nor I. Shoomy2003, I've really connected with alot in the past weeks. She has unconsciously and consciously aided me in finding direction which I was in such dire need recently
4. Put this in your journal so that I can tell you what I like about you. Awesomeness!

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I hope they decide to do it because I'd love to be pampered and stuff like that, but there's no way I can afford a real spa treatment...


Thanks!

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

Awww, thanks! And I think I may have an idea...

Hey, I really like that. Hmmm, interesting...

Pathseeker sleeps with a nightlight, not because Pathseeker is afraid of the darkness, but because the darkness is afraid of Pathseeker. Haha, just kidding

I have one to. You know, for the same reasons... *cough*

Your open-mindedness. I mean, you seems that you are open to new experiences and your willingness to speak to anyone about nearly anything.


*blushes* Oh, stop. You're embarassing me...

Well, this is hard because the "mutual friend" we'd have isn't quite a mutual friend because you haven't added her nor I. Shoomy2003, I've really connected with alot in the past weeks. She has unconsciously and consciously aided me in finding direction which I was in such dire need recently


*thirty lashes with a wet noodle* OK, OK. I get your point. I'll add you guys...
