Wonderling

weekend ho!

I don't know how I did it, but I've managed to get not only this last Monday off (thank you presidents!) but I've also got next Monday off. So I'm looking forward to a jam packed - packed with fun - weekend. Here's what's on the agenda.

Saturday - thrift shopping in all it's glory. and possibly a new bike purchase???
Sunday - Paper Brain plays the Fort George Brewery (In Astoria, OR)
Monday - is devoted to my humble vehicle. It needs a flat spare tire patched and the handy little unlocking/locking gadget isn't working so well. So before it quits on me completely I need to get it replaced.

In my absence I have rounded up some websites that will occupy your time (they will surely be more entertaining than this blog)

NetBabyWorld - this was one of the first websites that I know of that had the whole SIMS thing...customization of your character. It's super cute and there are plenty of games that even I can play well

NeoPets - Safe for for your 3 year old to get involved, yet fun enough for you to play too! I suggest going to the giant omelette and grabbing a piece!

Forever21 - this is where I waste most of my time. I'm pining for an HandM here in Portland, but until then I will satiate my cravings with the cheap and wonderful offerings of forever21 (the website has stuff that wont be in your local store, so you're less likely to get caught in that awkward...oh we're wearing the same thing moment.)

Amazon - honestly, what isn't on amazon? I have spent many an afternoon gushing over all of the wonderful books I could get for only 75cents. I've even gotten a brand new book for a penny. it's craziness. There is also an amazing array of plants for sale. It's just a wonderland that Amazon.com.

Paper Brain - shameless plug. But our myspace has a new song and it's absolutely wonderful, so make sure to waste some time there too :)

Growing Nuts!

I got this fun peanut bush and thought it would make a great desk accessory! So today I carefully followed the instructions and am now anxious to see roots begin to form. I will post pictures of the nut-progress :)

happy new year

with 2008 finally here (let's face it 2007 was SO last year) I guess it's time for resolutions. Although I find myself making resolutions on a daily basis it can't hurt to make more!

1. School. I've got to finish the education I started (and am still paying for!)
2. Relax and do what I want to. I think that doing things that make ME happy will lead to a more relaxed Jeni.
3. Clean. I have GOT to get better at keeping the clutter down to a minimum. DOWN WITH CLUTTER!

OK...so I think I got off to a good start because on new year's eve we played scrabble and I won! That has to be a good sign. :)

I've been reading a lot about Forensic Anthropology (which is what I am going to school for...eventually) and in my reading I found this

All I could think was, "this is SO me!". The look on her face is perfect...I make that look all the time in pictures...see, I'm ready!
