So, last Sunday I just felt generally ill, like I was dying. My head was throbbing, I was feverish and having hot flashes. Monday was the same. Tuesday was the same. Wednesday night my left eye was just killing me. Super sensitive to light, so dry, itchy, burning and leaking like a bad plumbing job. Thursday was more of the same. Friday morning I officially said hello to pink eye. Yay, right? I've battled it all weekend long. I even sat out the new X Men movie because of it. Last night in our PGD chat, one of the girls mentioned washing your eyes with baby shampoo to get rid if it. What? I was only half paying attention by then, my eye was bothering me so bad. I didn't really think much of it and just went to bed. This morning I said something to Brandy about it and he just looked at me like maybe I'd spun around in a circle one too many times. But, after I stumbled to the bathroom and fell into the shower(really people, without my contacts I can not see more than a handful of inches in front of me. Glasses met a tragic end long ago.), I stared at the bottle of baby shampoo(there are 2 bottles on the side of the tub. The girls *have* to have their own bottle. Gabe doesn't care if his hair ever gets washed) for 2 minutes and then thought, what the heck! I don't know if it's co-inky dink or what but I CAN SEE(as well as I can without my contacts in). But the point is, I washed my eye with Johnson&Johnson's Baby Shampoo, and it's not itchy. It's not leaking. It's not gooey. It's not blazing red. It's still a bit dry feeling, but that's almost normal for me. I never would have thought baby shampoo was the fix for pink eye! Color me amazed. And happy.
Oh, I should probably tell you we all had the swine flu. I swear. We were all running fever. We all had the chills. We all had achy aches. Can't be anything other that swine flu, right? I mean it's "catching" and anyone even kinda sick has it, right? Do you catch the sarcasm dripping off every word here?
Good sales in the digi world this weekend. I am right proud of myself. I only spent right at $5. I'm not counting the stuff from TLP's May BYOC I bought because Rachel is guesting there this month and I needed it. :D Usually I'm such an impulse buyer when iNSD rolls around....I take a sale as a free for all. I've used less than a quarter of what I bought last year(actually, I moved all but a handful of things off the EHD and onto a dvd....you know, because I just used it so much.) This year, I put the stuff in my cart and let it set. I made myself ponder was it something I really needed/wanted, or something I just liked. If my adding is right, I saved about $83 doing that. Actually, the last $12 I spent I wish I hadn't. They're just sitting there looking pretty, and I'm not using them. But in all honesty, I don't really feel the need to buy that much, since I CT for some serious awesomeness. They keep me in gorgeousness. I really only shop 2 people regularly, and a few random here and there. I did, however, shop at SSD designs for the first time today. I got some of Traci Reed's stitching. I'm not real sure why I've never shopped there before, cute stuff. I was browsing through the challenges. That's going to have to wait, though, seeing as how I own the 1 SSD item, LOL! Maybe when pay day rolls around again....
OMG, does anyone realize what happens on Tuesday?? My Collectors Twilight Blu-Ray ships!!!!! Hooray! I can't wait to get it and all the goodies! Which reminds me....the stupid battery in the watch I got with the DVD from Hastings is SO dead. Wow. That lasted a whole month. Since I didn't make the wolverine movie with my boys Friday night, the girls and I hung out here and watched Twilight. It seriously tickles me E knows most of the words(I swear she's only seen it less than a handful of times!) Al finally caught the tv in the hospital--it just floored her that it was showing Bella's "memories" about the whole thing. And I fell in love with Emmett again. *Swoon*
Which brings us to New Moon.
Let's start with this....WTH??(totally watch it full screen, hit the little blue arrows)
The Bella Motorcycle Mystery (Twilight New Moon) from VancityAllie on Vimeo.
Ok, like I said, WTH? Bella only rides motorcycles with Jake--who's this dude? I'm assuming maybe instead of just "seeing'" Edward when she walks up to the guys in Port Angeles, she just hops on a bike and takes off to do it, but jeez. But I'm ok, I'm ok(I keep telling myself that anyway) from everything else I've seen, this is playing close to the book.
I really don't have much else. Cute little photos from filming popping up everywhere, adorable interviews with people(I am still SO jazzed about Tinsel Korey--I think she's perfect for this) So yeah, I suck for Twilight news today :P
Hmm....what have I scrapped lately? Anyone want to see?(and if you click on them it's the full sized version, they're so tiny in the actual post)
This is the first non-CT LO I've done in a while. It's not that I set out to only do CT LO's. When I'm scrapping, I tend to use my favorite stuff. It helps that I also happen to CT for a majority of my favorites....so my non-CT LO's usually end up being CT LO's by accident.
And with that, I call it a night. It's 2am, and I've got to get Alee up and ready for school in 4 hours(and I'm sure the other two will just be bouncing off the wall because their daddy will be home and that just kills my little 45 minute nap I get every morning between kicking Alee out the door and the other 2 getting up)......so I'm going to lay here, watch Family Guy, plug my ipod into my head and wait for sleep to come!
