10% of Your LJ Experience

Happy Birthday, crimsonlady !!!

I hope you have a fabulous, fantastic day, KattyKat! I throw confetti and balloons in your general direction and offer up cake and coffee!! HURRAH!


Eee, yesterday/today goodness galore! First - I came home last night to find my first LJ-Christmas Card in the mail, eee! Much, much thanks and love to aimeelicious for the card - and it is very clear that you have discovered the way to my heart is coffee! Thank you so much, I have no words - and also clearly you are angling for the spot as my True Love *beams*. My thoughts are with you about everything going on, sweetie *hugs*.

Second, see the icon? See the bundle of adorableness that is my icon? And how gorgeous it is? calendae made me this last night and obviously she had fantastic material to work with but she still surpassed my expectations, as she does every time. And my heart is melting in my chest just looking at it.

And third, apparently I have some sort of sekrit admirer, hee. I came into work today to find on my desk a little stress ball, blue and white with snowflakes on it and VERY cute!! And still in it's wrapper, so clearly a gift! Although, I thought that they were a company thing and was like 'who gave us the stress balls' and then *facepalm* it turns out I'm the only one who got one. And I do not know who gave it to me! *squeaks* But it's awesome and cute and I am trying not to throw it at people. But wee, snowflake stressball!

The icon is particularly appropriate because I'm doing some nephbo sitting tonight after work, as the BFF and hubby have to go to a work christmas party.

My plans this weekend are that I MUST try to organize my house, I MUST get to the Post Office and I must do some last minute shopping. I have a Christmas Party to go to (friends, and I'm trying to decide between bringing appetizers or desserty stuff. Eeek.) on Sunday, then NEXT Friday I have a Christmas Party (work, I must dress up, eek) to go to, then Saturday is my birthday event so things are gonna be hectic in swmville. And tomorrow is really the last day I'll be able to do any proper christmas shopping and I'm already dreading it. *shivers*

Also - a few weeks ago when they were running that First Season special on some TV shows I picked up Millenium's first season - I'd never seen the show but I thought you really can't go wrong for 15 bucks. And watched the first episode and I am suitably creeped out but also liking it. The way it was shot in terms of color contrast was gorgeous - that's a thing for me. And the special effects are just cheesy enough to keep me stable, I have an overactive imagination. This will come as no surprise.

One last note:

Pepsi's special "Holiday Spice Pepsi"

Gah. Oh man, I bought that a couple days ago and have been wanting to share the horror of it with you but I keep forgetting because the memory is so traumatic that I've been blocking it out.

But it's ... Seriously. I'm not sure WHAT spices are in this Holiday Spice Pepsi, although I think I taste some ginger and maybe cardamon. But it's ghastly and horrible and makes me shudder and I warn you, approach it with caution. This is a public service announcement out of my deep love for you guys, so that you don't make the same extent. I can still...I can still taste it when I close my eyes, days later. Ugh. Ok, now I need coffee to make up for it!!

And love to you all and I leave you with:

Shameless Advertising for LuthorCorp!

We need programmers. Badly So badly that our owner just had a meeting with us saying 'please, put the word out'.

Sadly, the bulk of the people who read my LJ aren't programmers and even fewer live in KC - as far as I know! But, you know, who knows who lurks around?

And anyway, anybody who has read my LJ knows how much I get a kick out of working here...so you know, if anybody does lurk around who has programming skills or experience, even some of that which we need, drop me a line. Or if you know somebody who knows. Or would be willing to relocate, because of course you all want to live near me :p Kansas City is a great place to work, don't listen to the naysayers!

Because you, too, could work for EVIL!

Also, tonight I get to babysit the nephbo, hurrrrrah! And I'm heading out early to do so.

( Programming languages and skills desired: )

Have a fantastic evening and remember to tip your waiter or waitress!
