Nine dark-hunters costuming
Eight tactics a-hellsing
Seven bones a-painting
Six mythbusters a-drawing
Five gi-i-i-ilmore girls
Four star wars
Three indiana jones
Two seattle mariners

Get your own Twelve Days:


Oh for the love of...*sigh* (Expect the New Years resolutions to appear at the appropriate time.)

Anyway, some things are coming up quicker than I had originally thought, today I have a few errands to run.

1) Check to see how much I paid to get some work done on my car (i.e. oil change, lights changed, etc.). Bless Jiffy Lube for all of their work, but I really didn't need as much work as they were trying to push on me. However I am LAZY and didn't want to change the lights on my own. Which reminds me, I still need to talk to my husband about my car battery showing signs of corrosion.

2) Make necessary repairs to my dress. One of the seams is a little weak, so I need to reinforce that, make the darts along my bust, and make one last check for any compromised parts. Which shouldn't be a problem. I also need to buy a clutch to match because like HELL I'm going to a party without a little cash or ID.

3) Buy new shirt and tie for husband. The red shirt with the black/red/gold/silver tie combo has worked for the last couple of years, but this year I've opted for the cool color scheme as opposed to the warm color scheme. Today, I venture forth into the mall to find him a shirt and a tie. Woo.

See, I wouldn't really about thinking about items two and three right now, except my husband called me earlier and said, "So the party is this weekend not next weekend." Which of course makes me ridiculously happy that I finished the dress back in October, and I only have to make a few changes to it. Hopefully finding a shirt/tie for the husband will also be fairly easy - with him having gray eyes it means that he can wear pretty much anything. Blue FTW!

At any rate, I'm going to head out to the mall in a bit with my Christmas playing at full (sorry to Mark Hildreth, as I have enjoyed your music immensely, but tis the season and all that).

...And now my husband has just informed me that I can't leave because all of our gear for our HTPC is supposed to arrive this afternoon. So we'll go shopping for him tomorrow and I'm going to pull out my sewing machine and make the quick fixes to my dress this afternoon.

I guess that means a few things are now on the back burner. (y_-)

For corrosion, you can put either cola (or pop or soda or whatever you call it up there) on the battery. Either that or baking soda with water to get rid of it.

I need to shop for some new shirts and ties and make sure I look better for the next semester. I'm starting to run out of combinations and I need to change it up. :P I think i'll buy the green ties at UNT.
