home again...

and never wanting to hear another discussion about kodiak bears. or poop :| or farts. or Tiny, the Kodiak bear-size Caltrans worker who helped us navigate the perilous guard-rail-less mountain road back to everyday life full of sad-people-in-bad-moods-rushing-around-buying-poorly-thought-out-gifts-for-people-they-don't-really-like :|

seriously. i have so far printed and mailed at least 4800 christmas cards and i just realized... i have an entire other excel spreadsheet of people yet to be mailed a card :| some of those names, luckily, have a sad face next to them due to:
a) mailing an unfashionably late 'new year' card
b) not mailing a card at all
but the others are getting a xeroxed card stuffed into a manila envelope ;)

i have a very curious post-it on my desk. it's been on my desk for one entire week and it's completely blank except for a mark where i started to write and didn't. hmm... i am afraid to throw it away unless i remember what the mark represents...

good news (and some bad news...): today we bought our very first toastie maker!!! i was delighted with it and proudly carried home my fancy 'sandwichera' thinking it was some cool invention like a panini maker thingie. until i realized it was just turned backwards so the spanish description was shown and it really wasn't that fancy after all :( anyway i plugged it in and waited on baited breath for the 'luz de preparado' to go out and anxiously assembled my cheese, onion and tomato creation on the device and attempted to close the lid... suddenly there was a loud crack and springs and pieces of plastic richocheted across the kitchen :( sob. and that was the end of the 'sandwichera'... RIP:(

off to bed. yes it's only 7:16pm. i spent the weekend landing planes with the runway app on the iphone and i am totally exhausted and wishing i could file a compensation claim for ailments associated with dragging planes around to get gas/food/maintenance :|

some quick pics from vacation....

it's so hard to take pictures of stars when you don't have the bulb thingie. i am sure there is an easy way to do it but we couldn't figure it out (and it was freezing and we had hot fudge brownies and two episodes of 'dead like me' waiting inside:)

    I've as a last resort liked things like sand clocks, lava lamps, and the like to well-wishing of just spend space staring at it as a cut of catharsis. In a opportunity, it helps me with meditation, to reduce stress and strain and decent fantasize about nothing. That's why since I was a kid, in place of of dolls and cars I've in any case at ease more of such pieces like sand clocks, lava lamps, dulcet boxes etc. So I was most delighted when I establish the[url=http://www.dealtoworld.com/goods-1260-2-Laser++LED+Light+Show+Laser+Top+Gyroscope+with+Music+Effects.html] 2-Laser + LED Spry Manifest Laser Crown Gyroscope with Music Effects[/url] from DealtoWorld.com protection the Toys section. It's like a melodic box, a spinning better, and a berate verify all rolled into one. Which is great amusement! The gyroscope will whirl representing about a minute. The laser explanation display with accompanying music makes this gyroscope a very unique fiddle with that my friends get also been most amused with.

    My dogs are also fair intrusive around the laser gyroscope I got from DealtoWorld.com. They each cleave to the gyroscope as it spins, although at principal they kept barking at the laser light boast, and also because it produces music. But after they got worn it, they've stopped barking but just save up following the gyroscope whenever I start spinning it. Kids are also bonny amused by it. Sometimes it's moral to take pleasing toys around the house so that you can go away the toy on while the kids are being amused or playing with it while you open to provide for food or get changed. The gyroscope is unified such trinket with this purpose.

    The gyroscope I bought from DealtoWorld.com has a dragon as a design on it, and produces a gegenschein show with red, downcast, and unskilled colours. Steal a look at the pictures I've uploaded of the gyroscope with laser light show. The music produced from the gyroscope is not that renowned but facts plenty to accommodate any redone guest to the house. The gyroscope is red and black, making it look particular cool, and slightly masculine with that dragon imprint.

    The music luminescence make clear gyroscope runs on 6 LR44 batteries, which are replaceable anyway. I've also used this gyroscope to stagger my girlfriend during our anniversary celebration. I did the cheesy terror of decorating the hostelry elbow-room with roses and when I led her in, I started up the gyroscope as affectionately so that the laser insight expose produces a ideal effect. I also had some battery operated candles so all the moonlight effects created a rather mawkish atmosphere. She loved it, past the custom, to my relief. I also bought the candles from DealtoWorld.com. These days it seems to be my non-performance shopping locality suitable all gifts and ideas for romanticist occasions.

    Since Christmas is coming, this laser go down show gyroscope can possibly be a great Christmas contribution in behalf of the toddler or even the favoured! Alternatively, the gyroscope can absolutely be a gracious reckoning to the traditional Christmas decorations. I can fancy placing it adjoining the Christmas tree and perchance spinning it when guests hit town in the house. Looks like [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com]DealtoWorld.com[/url] is getting my subject anyway again!
