I feel scandalous...
Jul. 19th, 2011 01:28 amAnd it all started with bed risers.
Did you know I have risers under the feet of my bed? well now you do.
The other morning, as I sat up, the one leg of my bed broke through it's riser. No big deal, the other three are still working, and the boxes under my bed sorta kinda keep the bed....mostly upright. The boxes, and the fact that the frame is attacked to me head board XD.
So, though I've had them only about a year give or take, and they were rated to hold 1,000 LBs, the headache of arguing the company down to replace them is not worth more than the price of a new set.
( why do I feel scandalous you ask? )
I told mom I felt sort of dirty, but at the same time triumphant that I actually went and did it. Mom told me it was a bit T.M.I., but well, mom tells me things I don't wanna know sometimes, and really, it's not like I went into details or anything.
In other news, I finished a bib for my cousin's son, who was actually turning two on Sunday, but I've been slacking on the cross-stitch.
i think it's funny that as I type this entry, there's an ad for a baby image generator to the right. anyway.
During the party, my cousin subtly announced that they're expecting baby number 3. I also happen to adore the way that they announced it too.
for the majority of the party, my cousin wore this lime-ish green shirt that has Oscar the Grouch on it, befitting the Sesame Street theme of the party.
And, sometime between the serving of the cake and ice cream, and the cutting of the watermelon, she changed shirts to this one, and waited for people to catch what it says on it.
so, apparently I finished her son's bib just in time to start on the next one's bib, oh irony.
Sometime later, the kids were all out on the porch drawing with chalk. One of my uncles told my nephew Linus to go use the chalk to make a fire. It should be noted the my nephew Linus is a bit of a firebug....
He took the words "go make a fire with chalk" to heart.
Fire-building's kinda his thing.
