I have yet to get a 'best birthday gift'. I've had plenty of good ones, but none that stand out as best.

Blech.

xlana, the job is for special education teacher's assistant in highschool. It's wearying. Either that or I'm not used to working at such an early hour [at eight am].

As I said earlier, I'm done with Sam's gift:



And starting on mittens. No photos yet.



Me and one of Cris's friends. Cris was going to take it with her alone, but I leaned in at the last moment. :D



Four shots of the Sunday's party, complete with princess crown and fluffy boa. The last shot is of Diana, her mommy.

gah...

Point one: Got the job, started today.

Point two: These shoes that I thought were comfy are, in fact, horribly un-comfy.

Point three: At least I got a wonderful new waredrobe from K-Mart [its the only place that I can find clothes that fit me]

Point four: I'm tired. But not tired enough to walk home.

Point five: Ixnay on Four, since Cris got AT&T DSL. It'll start December.

Point six: I need a drink.

Point seven: Happy belated birthday to rosesarered23, since it was yesterday. You share the birthday with the babby neice, Sophia, who we took to PeterPiperPizza yesterday. She turned one.

Point eight: Hahahahaha...

Point nine: Dunno if I'll be talking to y'all tomorrow, but I'll try...

Point ten: *kitten flood!*

Today marks Cris's birthday, who is 21 once again.

What?

Anywho, she has to work. I'm here, wondering if the tea was too strong for my poor tired hands.

Hah!

Anywho, today is not bad. It's hot. I mean, in the mid-80's. Come on! My scarf and hat need an airing out! Sheesh.

Woke up rather early, much to my dismay, and sang the usual birthday song to Cris [we do this all of the time. hush]. Went out with mom and got some sweet bread for my breakfast:



Brewed up a pot of tea [black] and got the usual fixings: sugar, jam, butter, and bread. Had a nice breakfast.

And I knit!



One of the new colorways that Red Heart had, and I got a couple of skeins for a scarf and hat. It's a birthday gift to Sam, since his birthday's in a few weeks [If you're reading this, dude, act surprised when you get them].

I'm getting into the point of knitting while drinking tea. It's something interesting. And it wiles away the hours that I spend at home [the tea's getting cold *knitknitknit*].

So, hope everyone's alright. Nothing worrisome hopefully.

I am honestly disliking the front page of LJ. Is there any way to put it back to the normal newspage that I have grown to love??

Today's Terra's birthday party [she turned six on Wenesday], and none of the cousins are coming over. I call it bad timing, because Gloria's in San Antonio for something and Lisa's busy with a party of her own [from what I could gather]. We're making a good fuss over it, as it should me, since birthdays are days that are celebrated in good time.

However, unbirthdays are even more news to be celebrated. It's my unbirthday today. Howabout you? ;)

First project that might get unraveled later on: scarf with four[three?]-color stripe - red and two other colors, probably green, purple, and yellow. Might do it, dunno. Considering the weather and all, I mean. Scarves are not the thing of choice down here, y'know. However, once I get better, I'll do a Dr. Who scarf, since it is such a freakin' cool thing to make. :D

One last thing: rumor has it that there might a family reunion down here, on the Mom's side, on 4th of July weekend. The majority of her sisters and brother [she only has one] and their families are coming down, supposedly, so we might actually have one.

More news when it comes, k? :hug:

Weekend was too nice to pass up, though i didn't do much except make MtG cards with a newly installed MtG generator. And, of course, the cards dealt mostly with kittens. Here a few examples...

( Kittens! )

I don't know if I should make cards out of the set that I made a few years ago. Maybe I will. Who knows?

uhm...I'm on the horns of a dilemma. I don't know what to spend some of my money on.

Allow me to explain. My birthday's coming up (as forementioned), and I usually get myself something for myself that is along the catagory of "Not even going to get it for myself for another five, ten years". Last year was a half pound of Godiva chocolates. The year before was a Steely Dan cap. And so forth. I'm thinking of getting a poster of a certain fractal design of my making or someone else. Or should I buy a CD/MP3 player? Or buy ingrediants for a cake? Decisions desisions... x-(
