THERE'S A PHONE

NEW PHONE

OH MY GOD THIS PHONE IS AWESOME AND I HAVE HUGE FAT FINGERS PHONE!

Thank you guys for your addresses so far!

And encase all of ya'll missed it: Click this link to be taken to the post where I'm asking to exchange Christmas cards with new LJ peeps and Peeps who might have sent me their addresses via email or IM's. (I lose those. I've got everyone's from 2008 & 2009 who replied here at live journal though.)

NaNoWriMo Update
Yesterday I had 13,000 there abouts still. Since Christmas is coming I've been padding up Triond and trying to earn a little $ of course, so I joined a new pay-to-write site and ended up doing a review for Star Wars Galaxies.

No one had written one!

So...I have used that review to pad my word count LMAO.

ALSO I HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO CHRISTMAS MUSIC ALLLL DAY YAY! CHRISTMAS!

And so I close with something I haven't done in a while but you should know me for, by now.

A Random Mel List Update Stuff:

My pink cell phone's screen, when flipped open either comes up like a television that's on with no cable (a dark black screen that gives off a little bit of light,) or it works SO LONG AS I DON'T TOUCH ANY BUTTONS LOLOLOLOL. Shawn's phone started randomly shutting off a few months ago.

Called AT&T, not only were we able to replace BOTH of our phones for super cheap, because we're getting refurbished phones--we were able to afford upgrading our account. Not only do I have unlimited text? I now have unlimited information transfer. That means NO LIMITS ON: IM's, Email check & send, Pictures & videos. YAY.

Shawn and I are getting LG Vu's. We know they aren't the iphone. We can't afford the ipod, and compared with our phones which were made in the stone age AND they're completely touch-screen I am PRETTY BESIDE MYSELF ABOUT OUR PHONES RIGHT NOW OKAY? OKAY YAY.

Our old California King bed sheets, purchased thankfully by Grandma for Christmas three years ago just...started unraveling four or five months ago. Shawn, the gentlemen that he is, has been sleeping on a GIANT GAPING SHEET HOLE for the entire time. Recently we were able to scrounge up enough money and snatch a really GREAT deal on a full set of cotton, satin finish, 800 thread count california king with matching pillow cases. OH MY GOD THESE SHEETS ARE SOFTER THAN THE TEARS OF THE BEBE JESUS. And strong. And LOUD, loud as in if you sigh with too much force all the sheets rustle BUT I DON'T CARE I'M SLEEPING ON JESUS TEARS.

Despite doing good on the money front bills and things We Should Do But Cost Money still keep coming. Shawn says I need to hurry up and take over the world with cute clay things already.

I'm thinking about taking down digitally drawn art commissions. I'm just coming to the conclusion that I don't draw as well as I make disgustingly cute things out of clay.

I joined Helium today.

My lists are always too long!

Every November for the last couple of years I always ask people on my eljay and those I know through here if they'd be interested in getting cards from me for Chrissymas!

This year, I have a few addresses on hand from the last few years--but I've met some new friends and reconnected with old ones so I want to give everyone a chance to get a cheesy, dumb card with handwriting barely legible in it.

I would love to send you a card this Christmas, so please reply to this post with your address if you'd like! ALL COMMENTS ARE SCREENED, meaning only I will see them.

If you do not feel comfortable leaving your address as a screened reply, please send it to me via Livejournal, AOL, AIM, or my email: elf_fu@2phatgeeks.com! Incidentally, if you would like my address in return, just pop in a quick note in your email and I'll send it!

Also if you:

Have moved to a new location since 2007/2008

Sent me your address in an IM or E-mail originally during those years

Are relatively new to reading me or my journal

Send me your address!

It doesn't matter if you can't write back or forget or can't afford cards this year, so go go go gogo!

Protip:

When awake at 2 am with another bought of flailing awake and you search google for natural, home remedies for insomnia...One should not probably linger at the site where to the left of the remedies is an animated ad FOR VAGINA TIGHTENING SPRAY.

VAGINA.

TIGHTENING.

SPRAY.

SERIOUSLY.

Edit: Settled on a good old fashioned cup of hot milk with vanilla, cinnamon & nutmeg. My grandmother always swore by a hot cup of milk and hey--it's certainly not going to hurt me. Wish me luck.

You may remember that I made purple sparkly rat earrings a while ago and sold out so fast on Etsy my head spun. Like, whoa.

Well to hopefully curb the need for ratties, I have made more! But this time as you can see, they aren't purple! They're pink!
