Holy schmokes.
So I forgot something else I want for my birthday, which was 10 days ago: new belly dance apparel. And new pointe shoes. And a cat box, because I have TWO. NEW. KITTENS!
Just for the record, I expected you to read that aloud and with enthusiasm, much like people do WHEEL. OF. FORTUNE!, if you couldn’t tell by the boldness and capitalization. If you didn’t read it aloud and with enthusiasm, I advise that you go back and do so. I think you’d appreciate it much more.
Anyhow, their names are Hello Kitty and Mimmy. I’m pretty sure they’re both girls, but it’s difficult to tell at such a young and fuzzy age.
Edit: Kitty is still Kitty, but Mimmy is a boy, and will now be known as Moe, or Momo.
So I found this, and since my blogfans enjoy knowing about my personal life so well (?), I thought I’d fill it out for you all.
1. What kind of soap is in your bathtub right now?
I have Suave kid’s blue-flavoured shower gel. It has a black kid on a skateboard on the front. I liked it because it offered both a black and a white variety. Like Santa Claus or angel figurines. Matthew uses this foam stuff I got him for X-mas. There are 3 cans; green, orange, and blue. They smell like baby powder.
2. Do you have any watermelon in your refrigerator?
Not since yesterday; Matthew cleaned out the fridge. We did have a half watermelon in there since 4th of July.
3. Is there anything moldy in your refrigerator?
See above.
4. Are there any dirty dishes in your sink?
Yes. They’re starting to smell.
5. What would you change about your living room?
The 70’s carpet. (and not the good kind. It’s the brown on tan kind). The size. The colour (white) of the walls.
6. Are the dishes in your dishwasher clean or dirty?
Dirty. -Ahem-.
7. Do you have a can of mushrooms in your pantry?
Cream of mushroom soup. And until two nights ago, we had a box of portabella mushroom soup. It was delectable.
8. White or wheat bread?
Usually whole grain, but we actually don’t have any bread at all at the moment, except fancy french bread left over from a fondue party.
Edit: Nevermind, I’ve discovered mold.
9. What is on top of your refrigerator?
Cutting boards, bag o’ chips, sake set, fancy wooden plates.
10. What color is your sofa?
-Fancy- tan suede.
11. What color or design is on your shower curtain?
Hello Kitty!
12. How many plants are in your home?
Zero, unless you count the fake plastic one in the hermit crab tank.
. How many candles are in your home?
There are 6 decorative, unscented ones here in the living room. We light 2 of those. The other four, I bought ages ago with Alley Jo. There’s also a frog candle. I don’t light it, but it looks as if Matthew has. Sarah gave me a lavender flavoured Yankee scented oil thing you put in the wall; it’s in my kitchen. I also have a (barely) scented candle in the bathroom. I got it at the dollar tree. For a dollar.
And numerous tea lights for the fondue.
14. Is your bed made right now?
No. I’m making it today, though, because mum is coming over.
15. If you have a coffee pot, what color is it?
Red, 50’s style. I got it at project graduation. Along with a matching toaster and blender.
16. Electric or standard can opener?
Electric, but I can’t work the new fangled thing. I just either wait for Matthew or use the manual one.
27. Comet or Soft Scrub?
Food Lion brand, bitch.
28. Is your closet organized?
Meh.
29. What color is the flashlight that you use the most?
We don’t have one. We need one, though, because the other day we lost a kitten under the couch.
30. What kinds of things are in your junk drawer?
No junk drawer. We just have a junk desk.
31. Do you drink out of glass or plastic most of the time at home?
Plastic, but we prefer glass.
32. Do you have iced tea made in a pitcher right now?
No. I don’t know how to make it. I don’t even think we have Kool aid made right now.
33. If you have a garage, is it cuttered?
I don’t have a garage. I have a parking lot.
34. Curtains or blinds?
Blinds, and the cats eat them. We don’t have curtains, because we don’t have curtain rods.
35. How many pillows do you sleep with?
2-ish, plus Matt, and any I may steal from him in the middle of the night
36. Do you sleep with any lights on at night?
No, we can’t afford to. When Matt’s not home, though, I leave the hermit crab light on.
37. How many ceiling fans are in your home?
4, and an air conditioner.
38. How often do you vacuum?
Just about every day, now that we have kittens. But sometimes we like to wait for ages and then empty the canister so we can see our haul. It’s amazing.
39. Standard toothbrush or electric?
Electric. It has Hello Kitty on it.
40. What color is your toothbrush?
Pink!
41. Do you have a welcome mat on your front porch?
No, just a crazy gnome-like mushroom and a grill.
42. What is in your oven right now?
Nothing, I hope.
43. Is your microwave clean or dirty?
Non-existent.
44. Is there anything under your bed?
Monsters, little fuzzy stuffed animals that make noise called Scoozies, some shoes, and boxes of Matt’s crap.
45. Chore you hate doing the most?
Dishes.
46. What retro items are in your home?
Oh God, Matt’s records, my appliances, our clothes, Gabe’s fan, our carpet, our 70s lamp, and our 50s table and chairs from various family members.
47. Do you have a separate room that you use as an office?
Gabe’s never home, so his bedroom. It’s not so much an office as it is a room in which I dance in my skivvies.
No, no, just kidding.
Or maybe not!
48. If you have a yard, who mows it?
Some lawn fairy, I guess. The landlord maintenance guy.
49. Is there anything on your kitchen floor right now?
A red bamboo rug. Probably some kittens.
50. How many mirrors are in your home?
4, but one of them has a unicorn in it. It was Matthew’s when he was a child, and is now proudly on display in the living room.
51. Do you have any hidden emergency money around your home?
ooh, Maybe the last person who lived here left some.
52. What color are your walls?
-white.
53. Which rooms in your house have wallpaper?
None, but I found this heart wallpaper behind the dishwasher when the maintenance man came to put in a new one.
54. Do you have a peephole in your front door?
Yes, and funny story:
In my dorm room last year, my peep* hole was installed backwards, and so if you really wanted to see me (or Erica) naked, you could just look through the hole from outside. I don’t know of anyone ever doing that, though. Mary.
*At first when I typed that, I typed “poop hole” on accident.
55. Do you keep any kind of protection weapons in your home?
Some knives in the bedside table drawer and I have nunchuks in my car.
56. What does your home smell like right now?
My couch; jasmine with a hint of dog. But for some reason, for the first few minutes that the air conditioner is on, you get a big whiff of baby powder.
57. Fave candle scent?
Coffee. The candles with the coffee beans in them, those are nice.
58. What kind of pickles (if any) are in your refrigerator right now?
None; I keep forgetting to buy them at the store. Well once I remembered, but I only had $5, and hamburger meat, buns, and cheese were more important.
59. Who are in the pictures you displayed?
Holly, Matt, Me, Mom, and ballet Erik.
60. What color is your favorite bible?
green and green
61. Do you have plenty of cabinet space in your kitchen?
More than average for an apartment; They just happen to be bright ass blue.
62. Ever been on your roof?
No, I think it’s illegal.
62. Do you own a stereo?
Probably? I know we have two iDogs, and when you hook them up together, they dance together.
63. How many tvs do you have?
1. No cable, though. Just Lucy and Family Guy DVDs.
64. How many house phones?
Zero.
65. Do you have a housekeeper?
Matthew, and a Columbian butler who is never home.
66. What style do you decorate in?
retro funk with a splash of nintendo.
67. Do you like solid colors in furniture or print?
I like old furniture with funky print, but if it’s more modern furniture, I like solids.
68. Is there a smoke detector in your home?
Geez, I’d hope so. If there isn’t, I’m sure that’s illegal. I guess I should make sure where it is. Well, my dad was just here a few weeks ago, and he probably would have noticed if there wasn’t one, since he’s a fireman. It’s probably just one of those things he notices, like how I’m a dancer, and the first thing I notice is people’s bad posture.
68. In case of fire, what are the items you would grab if you only could make one quick trip?
I’m not really a material person, so if the cats didn’t qualify as “items,” then whatever Matt told me to grab. Probably the computers.
But if the mac book did die in the fire, he would have more time for me…
69. Do you know how to work your electrical box?
No, I have 2 men for that.
70. What temperature in your home is most comfortable to you?
No thermostat, so I’m not sure. I’m happy with the air conditioner being on for about 5 minutes every hour.
So in honor of Colleen coming to visit me tomorrow, I’ve decided to post some of my favourite pictures of her:

And my fave:

I’m not sure that she was completely aware that I was taking a picture of her. In men’s underwear.
Speaking of which; just kind of throwing this out there;
When I was much younger, I was under the impression that when men had sex, they could have sex over and over and over. Like, all night.
Just so you know, men, let us know. Before we lose our virginity to you when we’re only fifteen and are horribly disappointed.
Whoa, who said that?
So in conclusion, I’ll soon have a poll up, among other things, if I can get my blogboy to do some blogwork on my blog.
Blog.

Aw I love cats. I used to have two… well my older sis did, but whatever.
And for the record: I read those words the right way, but in my head not aloud. So I was close!

32. Do you have iced tea made in a pitcher right now?
No. I don’t know how to make it. I don’t even think we have Kool aid made right now.
…..
boil water and lots of it. enough to fill a pitcher.
then put a cup of sugar more, less or none depending on your preference in the pitcher.
then put the boiling water in the pitcher then add 4-6 tea bags to the pitcher. I usually do 6.
Then let it sit a bit so the tea flavors your water. Then take out the tea bags. Stir. Put in fridge or serve on ice.
Now you know how to make tea and can’t complain about it any more.

So…
I really hope you come to Paducahpalooza this weekend.
And vote for me. Like… 20 times.
It’d be really awesome.

Yay for new kittens. My friend just got two kittens. But I have been forever kittenless. When I move out at the end of the week I will be acquiring a dog though. It belongs to one of my future roommates.

Teenage boys have crappy stamina. I know this because I was once a teenager who had teenage boyfriends. Now that I am an adult with an adult boyfriend… I know that it takes time and work on the guys part to work on his sexual issues.
That being said…
15 year olds shouldn’t have sex.
August 30th, 2007 at 1:03 PM
Awww you got kittens?? how cute! I like the names.
September 6th, 2007 at 7:35 PM
college is stoopid.
September 15th, 2007 at 1:16 PM
So…
We went with Christopher Emo Confessional for our male, because when we were at the Humane society he was really whiney, and his whiskers are really long and look like sensitive hair. The other one is named Gizmo because she looks like Gizmo from Gremlins.
Whtiney and I also got two new kittens (to go with our new appartment) and its pretty awesome.
Kittens rule.
How are you anyway, darling?
