So much to do...so little time...

so yeah i haven't been updating on a daily basis like i used to. why you might ask??? well 'cos i haven't had a real day off (cept the one i took 'cos i was in pain) since september 3rd, but ya know what...it's been keeping me happy (sort of)

so now i have a bunch of reading to do, and lots of things to get done.

Item #1 make can-can skirt

Item #2 make ruffles for petticoat

Item #3 if 1 & 2 dont work out...borrow Jo's can can costume from 10 years ago LOLOLOL

so yeah i'll be at the witches ball even if i have to borrow money to get there. and on sunday if anyone wants to...i have extra tickets for the renaissance faire (2 to be precise) and i'm planning on going there for a short time in the early afternoon before i have to go to work there.

if you're interested...drop me a text message on my phone. i wont be able to drive said person(s) to the faire 'cos i will have to stay much later than anyone would intentionally want to, and not to mention the fact that i have no room for all the faire gear that i'm currently storing in my truck till the 20th of october.

and on another note...

the Great Disneyland Birthday Trip is upon us again.

the plan (for anyone who wants to go) is to fly (or drive) down on the 30th and go to D-land on the 31st through the 2nd. extra days are optional...the whole idea is to go to disneyland on hallowe'en and enjoy ourselves. my parents are planning to pay for my flight and car rental 'cos they dont want me driving down. but anyone is welcome to join the party if they want to come down on another day. i will be there on wednesday morning through saturday night (my actual birthday).

again if you're interested...drop me a text message on my cell phone or send me an e-mail.

OK i'm off to do some reading, sewing and cleaning...

'slater all

2 really funny (or maybe not so funny) jokes

Three moles are in their little mole hole: a momma mole, a papa mole, and a wee baby mole. One day during their breakfast, they smell something in their little mole hole coming from the outside.

The momma mole and the papa mole rush up towards the doorway of their little mole hole, with their wee baby scrambling behind, and immediately sniff the air.

"I smell honey" says the momma mole.

"I smell maple syrup!" says the papa mole.

Wee baby mole is stuck in the back, sniffing away. Abruptly, he cries out:




--*wait for it*---





"I smell........molasses!"



The No. 1 joke in England:
Two weasels are sitting on a bar stool. The bigger one starts to insult the other one. He screams, ‘I slept with your mother!’

The bar gets quiet as everyone listens to see what the other weasel will do.

The big one again yells, ‘I slept with your mother!’

The little weasel shakes his little weasel head and says: ‘Go home dad, you’re drunk.”’

how many years ago did we leave England???

how many years ago did we dump the tea in the harbor???

now we're planning to be JUST LIKE THEM!!!

As early as next year, $20 bill to take on color U.S. to start rollout of new hues
By Barbara Hagenbaugh
USA TODAY


Coming to an ATM near you: colorful cash.

As early as fall 2003, the $20 bill will have a new color, as the United States launches a major revamping of its currency that will feature multicolor bills, government officials said Thursday.

The twenty is the most counterfeited bill and the favorite of automated teller machines.

The biggest difference from the greenback is that each denomination will feature a combination of ''subtle'' colors in areas that are now neutral. Not wanting to give counterfeiters a head start, officials declined to discuss which colors will be used.

The color will allow the government to add yet-to-be-announced security features and will also give consumers an easy way to check for fakes.

Officials promise the design, to be unveiled next year, won't be too crazy.

''We're maintaining the traditions of American currency,'' says Tom Ferguson, director of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing.

New $50 and $100 bills will be issued up to a year and a half after the $20.

Subway systems, vending machine firms and others that use machines to scan $20 bills must redesign equipment to recognize the new bills. That will cost time and money. Companies spent $350 million to retrofit machines in the last change in 1996, according to the National Automatic Merchandising Association.

Metro, Washington, D.C.'s subway system, spent $2.5 million to retrofit its fare card machines six years ago.

The 1996 redesign was the first change in the greenback in 70 years. The government now plans an update every seven to 10 years, partly because computers have made counterfeiting easier. Last fiscal year, one-third of the $47.5 million in circulated counterfeit cash was computer-generated. That's up from 0.5% in 1995, the Secret Service says.


good freakin lord i say

hmmmm

i think what bothers me the most at this time is that i'm blocked from responding...so here it goes...

yes i was inconvenienced. yes it was nice of you to offer to let me stay there, but i needed to get my stuff out and you were keeping it there and i had no way of getting it without you. had i KNOWN that you were planning on NOT going to faire that weekend, i would have taken the stuff with me in the first place (which was my intention but you suggested why should i take it home when i'm going to have to haul it back again anyway). the fact that you posted about this in your journal and made it impossible to respond has led me to post this in my journal. i could care less if you post a response. if you would like...by all means...post...that is your right.

i would, however, suggest that if you are not willing to let me post on your journal that you take me off your "friends" list. i noticed that eventhough i am not able to respond to something written about me that you are still willing to consider me a friend. confusing...yes...

i would also suggest that if you are not planning to work ren faire box office anymore that you call shanaar and let him know. he seems to think that you are planning to work the balance of the faire season (which is all of about 2 weeks) because you had said that you would be available every other weekend.

for those of you who think i'm an asshole for posting this...that's fine...that's your opinion and like assholes everyone has one. for those of you who dont understand this post...consider yourself lucky. for those of you who dont want to get involved...i would suggest you dont. this IS however the only way i am able to contact said person.

thank you and have a wonderful day.
