i hate when i see cool things online that are begging me to purchase them. dear awesome stuff, i don't have the money right now. lay off, alright? but seriously... i need some of the following:
1. Mean Cards Breanne posted a link to these on her blog and most of them made me laugh. Maybe I'm twisted. Whatevs. They still are awesome.
2. These shirts After cleaning out my closet yesterday, I realize I do not need another freaking tshirt. In other news, project concer-tshirt-quilt shall be underway soon. I'm excited/nervous. I don't wanna jack it up. I do, however, have some pretty sweet sewing skills. Consider that your fact of the day.
3. Kindle So the other night at Shawn's I told him to ask his mom if she wanted to borrow some Jodi Picoult books that I had finished reading. He said he'd ask her, but she has a Kindle so she might be too cool for my old fashioned paper books. Silly me asked what the heck Kindle was. I should have known better :) Mr. Chase retrieved Nancy's Kindle from upstairs and I immediately fell in love with it. Like I've-gotta-order-that-when-I-get-home kind of love. The thing is ... Shawn's a liar. He told me they cost "like, I don't know, a hundred bucks?". No, try like FOUR hundred bucks dude. It's all good. I still haven't decided if I'll get one in the near future or if I would prefer to stick to my paperbacks. We shall see. But I will tell you this, if I end up getting one, I am fo sho' getting this skin for it.
This concludes my blog post. I'm off to take a shower and enjoy the sunshine (maybe?) before it starts raining again. Seriously, the rain has GOT to stop.
i'd probably jump too. let's be honest ... melissa would probably find some way to make me do it ;) so on that note, here's a bunch of pictures to catch you up on what i've been up to...
mr. shawn and mr. chico. my two dudes. you see, there's a new puppy in the chase/hough/vieira household and chico has not really been a fan. most nights he's downstairs with us snuggled up on the couch watching weeds and the office. he's pretty much my favorite (don't tell romeo or rufus!)
this is a lame attempt at trying to take a picture of the new pup, rufus. we titled this picture "the ghost of rufus past". he would not sit still long enough for me to get a decent shot. oh well, next time i'll try again. shawn tells me he's a cockamo. either he's making it up and he's a total perv, or that truly is the name of the breed. ok, update. i googled it and he's not a liar. eskimo cocker mix.
we thought that maybe if shawn rubbed his belly he'd stay still. not so much. apparently he LOVES getting some belly action, look at the legs go! i love every inch of that furry little dude. rufus, not shawn ;)
i took my own puppy dog for a walk. actually, she took me. this girl LOVES her walks. we can't even say the word around the house unless we fully intend on putting her little apparatus on (yeah, i said it melissa) and hitting the pavement.
i'd like to think this error was made on purpose, although i highly doubt it was. my view from the dunkin donuts drive-thru one morning. makes me giggle.
dear baby kegerator,
i love you. your ability to not only chill but also dispense my beer is fantastic. let's be friends.
love,
e.
dear baby brother of mine,
sorry i forgot to TURN THE TAP OFF when i got that last cup of brewski. my bad. also, sorry for laughing and walking away when i realized a nice pile of foam/beer was on your floor. oops :)
love,
your most favorite sister ever
you know it's gonna be a good party when bj is shirtless and you haven't even been at the house for a half an hour yet. oh boy. note the light pouring in from the windows.... it wasn't even 6 yet. the party was for the ufc fight ... which started at 10pm. yeah, that's how we roll.
so here's the deal. patty cakes wants to have a party. patty cakes doesn't cook. lucky for him, he has a big sister that loves him soooo much she'd play chef and keep his friends happy. ladies and gents, i present to you my creation ... "milf wings". the original recipe came from bj's mom. let's just say that she was the dream woman of pretty much every boy in our neighborhood. at some point i told everyone there that they could thank bj's mom for these delicious chicken wings and then our friend courage started calling them the milf wings and it stuck. later on courage also told shawn that "erin makes pretty good wings ... for a white girl". that.made.my.night.
the pictures blur as the night progressed. i don't know whyyy something like that would happen *coughcoughkegerator* i heart pat's shirt.
me. shortly before the "pleassssse-unlock-your-car-so-i-can-go-sleep-in-it-until-you're-ready-to-leave" begging began.
about a week ago i made a list of 25 things things i'd like to do before i turn 25 (02.06.11) and read at least 25 books was on my list. i finished vanishing acts in two days last week. finished the tenth circle and started change of heart last night. woot. i'm open to suggestions for reading materials because at the rate i've been going, i'll have all of picoult's read by the end of the month. or week :)
a page from my "25 by 25" book. *gasp* i've been scrapping again lately. well, trying to. it feels good to play with paper and pens and aNhesive and ink. and then my basement flooded and my scrapping was put on hold. lame.
my crazy holographic elvis puzzle. i don't suggest anyone ever make a holographic puzzle. it made me want to pull my hair out. it does look pretty sweet "in motion" though.
and all of this ends with my shopping trip with mom yesterday when i picked up some *sweet treats* for a friend. i almost peed my pants. i wonder if holland oates know these are in production?!?
well that's all for now. i have a list of things i SHOULD be doing. we'll see how that goes. happy thursday, yo!
