bad haircut girl


Well one of the worst things about all your friends moving across the country or out of the country and all your family living 3 hours away besides not having things to do on saturday nights. lol is that when you get a bad haircut there is no one there to say dude what's up? I got a very bad haircut a couple of weeks ago. I mean bad a step up from dog hair but ok it was a triangle so my head shape was no longer oval but a big triangle. Ok now that you are picturing it and are horrified I will continue. So I went to work and people were like oh nice.. then other people were like oh you got your haircut cute. I had a suspicion b/c usually people are all oh I love that haircut OMG it is awesome.. Finally a week with bad hair later I drive out to see my little mom and she is like "what is going on with that?" and " you have got to do something with your hair" So I look up a place here in K-town and choose cowboys and angels. I was a little nervous but this girl Hollie is very cool and she cut my hair beautifully. I love it! In the pic it is flatironed out but the back is spiky and with my natural wave it's going to look fun and messy and awesome.

Dear Santa,

Christmas blitz begins! Decorations, commercials, jingles, zillions of flyers.. I'm not exagerating here the grown woman who drops off the flyers is too lazy to go up each driveway for each townhouse as they are not all attached so she drops off 3 stacks of the same flyers to my house at first I thought it was some schmuck kid but yesterday I found out it I was wrong it is just a lazy adult I mean ok well don't get me started on this lady.... So yeah zillions of flyers and the decorations are up at the mall even though the mall is under construction so you are walking buy build a bear under some scaffolding and watch out for that orange extension cord soon enough you will be required to strap on a hardhat to go into the mall and get to HMV.

getting to the point here...

The worst thing is the kids toy commercials and yeah there are some cool toys out there but here are two commercials I saw that left me speechless.. The first is stackers yep kids will apparently be asking for stackers which is basically 6 plastic cups and a carrying bag for them.. The idea is for your kids to stack and unstack them as fast as they can they even have a website set up where you can see the time to beat. Ok so go get them a bag of coloured beer cups... stack away....Who thought this up??? next now this one is sad cuz it sounds cool but it is obviously one of the toys that you get and your so excited only to find out they don't work and the toy you wanted oh so very badly is a piece of shit. (think the game mouse trap) This toy is a tattoo gun yes ladies and gentleman you can buy your child a big plastic tattoo gun which moves up and down. It comes with markers you put in the place of needle and ink and plastic cut outs so you can tattoo your friends or if you're really good you can free hand something.. might as well just give your kid markers to colour on themselves and their friends with. I did notice it doesn't make that awesome tattoo sound that would scare kids away from actually getting a tattoo. Seems odd to glorify something and make it into a toy when it scares most parents to death doesn't it? I say most parent's since my little mom loves my tattoo's and likes showing them off to her friends ..which is a whole other blog.

I have witch ears

Yesterday was Halloween I stocked up on candy for trick or treaters and got some awesome halloween material on sale from fabricland. Orange and black stuff to make derby skirts and things since our team colours are orange and black. I also picked up a plug in pumpkin since all other stores were sold out of normal pumpkins.
Watched Halloween TV all day ate "bat wigs" and salsa/guacomole and handed out candy.
I think the best costume was the little chinese boy who sang a trick or treat song and was dressed as a yellow and green dinosaur.
I have witch ears according to lanny because while doing other things I can hear kids before they come to the door...moi hahaha come in my pretty's...
