Wrapping paper + tape + sicssors = chaotic living room or death by sharp objects?

Objex hehehe... that's a fun way to spell objects.

I have a jacket someone gave me to fix a zipper on. But it is such a nice leather jacket, and it smells very nice too... mmmm I think I will not give it back... hehe :) Nah, I'll give it back after I fix it... well...eventually... maybe this summer...

You know, I make a lot of strange little sounds when I am happy or comfy or annoyed:

Meh meh - Could be just a 'filler' to say or could be used to express annoyance or confusion. When used in statement of confusion, usually accompanied by tilt of head, said to resemble a puppy or other small animal when this occurs.
"You should go left here.." "Meh meh? *tilt of head*"

Eeeee! - Usually an expression of excitement. As in "Eeee! Look! A frog!"

Chirps - Chirps or small high pitched noises that are sometimes screechy occur when very excited or cannot contain happiness. Usually heard when something new and unexpected happens.

"Oh my GOSH! The new Artemis Fowl book is out! *insert chirp here*" or " *Insert chirp here* I just got off the phone with Maria Arnold, they want me to come out to D.C. and serve on the Design Team!"

Growling - the expression of grrrr or other growly noise is meant to show good natured displeasure or annoyance. Usually displayed around those I show great affection for. Sometimes accompanied by a gentle hit to the head for retribution for whatever comment.

"Grrr.. Josh stop messing up my hair! I will have the shoelaces!" or Person A: "You're such a dork. *hugs*" Response: "Grrr..."


Squeaking - Squeaking is just that: squeaking, it sounds a lot like when you have a baby chick and they make the little 'peep' sound. Often when snuggling or cuddling or in any position where warm, comfy, and safe. Usually accompanied by random comments of dubious origin.

*squeak and snuggle* "I like ketchup. The end."



So, I'm sitting here wrapping Christams gifts for my family and watching Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe trying to figure out what to fix for dinner and how to do a power point presentation for a 4-H workshop I'm presenting... I have discovered that scissors are excellent pointy objects for cutting oneself when one is not paying attention to what one is doing. I have also discovered that I need a picture for the YLT slideshow still and I have made no effort to having it taken. I have talked about it, yes, but done anything? Of course not! Praise the procrastinator because it is he who shall inherit the earth... eventually........


It's is cold and melty and wet out. I have a divine urge to go run, but that is a bad idea as slush plus my uncoordination will most likely result in injury. Although, in a way that would be convenient you see as I have a doctor's appointment coming up... oh well...


Tra la la, lira lira lay.. you know I say that awful lot, it's actually from Sherlock Holmes in the last paragraph of The Adventure of the Red Headed League.

Hmm, I should probably retrieve the mail.... but I feel no desire to...

I have virtually accomplished nothing, I keep on getting distracted.

I need reading material. Fun reading material besides the typical manga or webcomic. I desire a NOVEL!!! Michael Crichton perhaps or even better, Dracula, or Twenty Years Later from Alexandre Dumas.


Surely surely, I say unto you, scissors and tape shall breed mass unrest among you, for they are instruments of the demise of our sanity.


I shall return to my wrapping, and cleaning of the house, and fixing of dinner and working on of great presentation. Jan jien*!
