Look, I'm saying stuff:

You may have noticed that I'm posting less often these days. I've taken to only posting when I have something interesting to say...or when I feel like it. I guess I just feel like it less than I used to. I'm not going to post about the second Stingray Victim or the possibility that the Stingray's are coming to get us. Nor will I be posting about the asshats who hae nothing better to do than fight Ann Arbor's School Districts same sex benefit policy. I will also, and admittedly with great difficulty, refrain from talking about Norbit; even H was furious when he saw this trailer. Frankly I'm sick and tired of giving space to idiots, bigots, and other assorted jackasses.

This week I made a few more hats, a cool purse for myself, and possibly something nice for one of you who is having a birthday soon. It's definately NOT [livejournal.com profile] sudrin. But then again...maybe it is. ;-] I'm behind with my plan to edit and submit my Hazel story. I forgot about the goddamn goddamn synopsis which I hate. I hate writing synopses whether by chapter or overall. I hate them. I hate them, and I dislike them greatly. So I'll be doing that as soon as I can make myself sit down and do it, which will probably be after a nap, finishing this hat, and a snack of leftover caesar salad. Mmmm...

Had an awesome visit and lunch with [livejournal.com profile] kissdbyagnome today. I learned a lot about people I went to high school and college with, and that LaShish has awesome baklava. Mmmm... I also have my officiant lined up for the wedding, because it will be her. Here's who I have so far:

Groom: H
Bride: [livejournal.com profile] wednes
Officiant: [livejournal.com profile] kissdbyagnome
DJ/MC: [livejournal.com profile] madush69
Photographer: [livejournal.com profile] slapnticklejr
Food Helper Outer: [livejournal.com profile] klynnfrost and possibly [livejournal.com profile] missgrete
Invite Design: [livejournal.com profile] smarbaby (and no, she can't do yours!)
Aisle Walker Downer: [livejournal.com profile] uterdic
Lucky I'm on LJ or I'd be doing everything myself. LOL



Since there's no Friday Five up yet for this weeks, I'll do last week's, since I didn't do it.

1. What job do you have, and why do you like/hate it?
None, and yes, I hate it. Right now, going to these damn meetings and appointments and shit is my job. With that in mind, I kind of suck at it, missing as many as 3 appointments a month sometimes. Yeah...suck. I also do a lot of writing and more recently, knitting.

2. As a kid, what did you want to be when you "grew up?"
A teacher, and ichthyologist, and a writer.

. Is the job you have now anything like what you imagined as a kid?
Actually, the writing part of it is...except I always thought I'd make money at it. But I sort of always wanted to do drugs and write for a living. And I'm not doing much drugs or making much living, but the writing is good.

4. Do you have a five-year career plan?
No.

5. In order to get the job of your dreams, is there anything you wouldn't do? Why?
I wouldn't write anything that I thought was outright bad. No propaganda (but honest advertising is okay), I'd never plaigarize or deliberately steal someone else's idea. And I try to avoid using my feminine wiles to get jobs, which is probably why I'm not employed. ;-]

I didn't know you made hats! What kind of hats do you make? Can you make a cloche? I need a cloche bad!

Dude, I got knitting looms so I can make stretchy knitted hats out of a double width of yarn. So nothing fancy, just fun, warm hats for winter.

Like so.

I would like this stingray to come and get me.




I used to love that show.

LOL

[identity profile] maxverbosity.livejournal.com 2006-10-21 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
I will write a "wedding rant" if needed. LOL

[identity profile] maxverbosity.livejournal.com 2006-10-21 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I thought I would ask....there isn't much else I am good for at ceremonies. :-)

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2006-10-21 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
It is very rare that I need an assistant ranter at any event. ;-]
Although, I do enjoy your rants very much...

I love that "happy" picture!

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2006-10-21 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
tee hee thanks!

It's no "hula bunny" but it gets the job done!

I'll have to take some pictures at your wedding too.. But I'm happy to not be responsible for any. I nearly had a nervous breakdown when I tried to shoot Sara's moms wedding.

Dustin is an awesome photographer. He did Ryan and Katie's wedding as well, and those pics were wonderful. I need to give him a list of what we want so he doesn't spend half the night waiting for me to stand next to a family member who isn't coming. >;-/

But I'm glad you'll be taking pics as well. I wanted to put disposable cameras on every table (so I can get great shots, like people shooting down their shirts like Dan's wedding--one of the waiters totally laughed at me)--but I don't know if we'll be able to afford them. Then again, plenty of people will bring cameras.

better stingrays than zombies! ;)

Too true!

I love my new hat and scarf:) Had a great lunch with you btw, and i'll email that request for stuff sometime soon;)

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2006-10-23 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm so glad you like them. I'm really unsure of my knitting skills at present.

Also, H wants $400 for his computer, which is a G4 emac with a 40 gig HD. It has iMovie but not Garage Band, so you will be able to mix video and sound, but not make your own music with it. Although, I know a guy who might be able to install it for you since he has a line on such things...I can ask.

[identity profile] kissdbyagnome.livejournal.com 2006-10-23 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
okay, let me run it by ian. the selling point for ian would be the garage band program however...
