Craptastic Photos!

*sigh* It's really hard to take good photos when the weather is gray and the lighting isn't very good at night or in the office so bear with me. The camera operator is also a little under-trained as well! lol

First up is my last update for 2009 on my TUSAL. I managed to fill the jar up a little more in between Christmas Tea and the ornies I was making. The photo is overflashed but I liked how the ort colors stood out more because of it.
I'm planning on putting these orts into a baggie and most likely incorporating them into ornie stuffing. I'll use the same jar for 2010 and start anew! This is a fun no-stress SAL. Yoyo is taking sign-ups and you can join an anytime. You just need to go and sign up here.

As you may have guessed, I bailed on working out on my own and went and got a manicure. I picked OPI Crimson Carol because it's just obnoxiously glitterly and people stop me on the street to comment on the color. I mean look...I couldn't even get a good picture because the glitter was causing glare from the glitter in the polish! It's my cover into *appearing* like I'm in the Christmas spirit. I love red polish though so it's fun!
And I did watch Four Christmases but I don't think it was all that great. I got distracted around scene 16 and so by scene 21...I was all...where'd Vince Vaughn go?! So I have to re-watch that a little bit so I can understand what I missed. Yea...seriously...attention span of a jackrabbit.

Today has been a day at work. You know it's a day when I'm telling people I'm going back into private industry and looking for a job tomorrow! *sigh* If only things were so easy! My friend Claire and her munchkin met me for lunch today and she handed me a goodie back and another treat. She said it was a stocking stuffer type thing. We always agree to not give presents and to just try to spend more time with each other. When I got to my desk, I opened up the extra and found this...
Claire knows I love Snoopy (just not pumpkin ones). So here's Snoopy and Woodstock. The outfit Snoopy is wearing is a hint to what side of public industry I work in. It's not as fun and filled with hot, stud-like men as you may think...like seriously.

Well...I'll be back in a couple of days. I'm not going anywhere but there's lots of cleaning to be done and SAL stitching to do. Hopefully...I'l have some cool things to share on Sunday.

Enjoy the weekend!

Until next time...

OPI polish can change your whole day. :)

I love Snoopy and Woodstock too! :D Great nail polish. I've always kept my fingernails super short and never bothered with polish -- a habit from playing guitar I guess.

No, no. Why are you trying to shatter my fantasies about firefighters?

Crimson Carol? I'm more a Scarlet Lady I think! LOL

(Actually I only ever have a French manicure - must be Valie's influence)
