Apple Pie in the Sky

Today was a strange day. Someone actually said to me, "you look like you didn't sleep at all last night." Trust me, it felt like it.

I really hope I'm not getting sick; I can't afford to be sick until about 2012 or something. So please health, stay with me.

I don't know what it is lately, but I feel like I'm not having any fun, just working all the time, yet accomplishing very little. I do not like this. The only remedy I've come up with is to cash in my savings for Jimmy John's gift cards and time machines. Don't worry, I'm working on it.



In other news, I will be wearing a monster costume and hugging a giant banana in a week and a half.

LOP, Yeah, You Know.

After a wasted day, I have been having an extremely productive morning.

However, I feel as though I've hit a wall. APA papers, why are you so time consuming and monotonous?

Oh My Ford!

I'm not allowed to shop online anymore. At least for a while. Its too easy, and I can't afford it.

This week I have several packages coming.

Two pairs of boots:


A fall jacket (in brown):


A sweatsuit (for Halloween, but still):
And just a few short weeks ago, a mini laptop:


All beautiful specimens, but.. I need to take a break. ..After I order Windows 7..

Right at Head Level

The key to updating blog regularly is having midterms and papers galore.

!

I could be studying for my experimental exam tomorrow. I could be writing my experimental paper. I could be studying for "Hatari!" tomorrow. I do none of these things. No, instead I make noodles, a tail, and a sully hood.

A good night.

Cause Bacon is Good for Me

Sorry about the extreme lack of updates. I started this blog to help me keep things in perspective, but its become another thing that I let sit on the back burner. Life keeps getting in the way. Ah well, so it goes.

Classes are in full swing; exams are being taken, papers are being written, Badgers are being cheered for, and passive voice is being thrown around like crazy.

And while I read everyone else's blog updates almost daily, I seriously neglect my own due to lack of time and inspiration.

So now, I will ignore all of the specifics of my absence and make a visual list of Halloween ideas, because that is the next big thing I am excited for.

Last year's big winners were the Great Gazoo from the Flintstones (my friends made up the reat of the cast, it was good fun), and the first man to walk on the moon, Neil Armstrong.

How do I top these? I haven't figured it out yet, but these are my top runners:
Hurley from LOST

and Sully from Monsters, Inc.

Now I also considered Amelia Earhart, but I thought I may get a lot of "oh, you're a pilot" and too few people would make the connection, but then last night I saw a preview for this movie:
Coming out the week before Halloween. Convenient? Yes.


While I am still open for suggestion, and I can pick at most two (thanks Madison for your extraordinary Halloween celebration traditions!), I am weighing heavily on Hurley and Sully, as they would both be fun and relatively inexpensive. But also, anything that allows me to utilize copious amounts of tin foil would likely top the list immediately.. its fun to make stuff that way, okay?

So.. we shall see, and of course, I will have LOTS of pictures.. or at least some.. to show off my costumes of choice.

Boys in the Hood

Now that my beloved boys are back in the apartment, I feel as though I will have enough steady material to do a regular feature on their zany antics. And so today marks the first edition of:

The Falafel Boys=Total Gentlemen

Yesterday while I was looking in my closet pantry for some good eats, I hear a knock at my door. As I open the door and say, "yeeeees?" I see Luke has a banana in the fly of his pants thrusting in my general direction. "Oh yeah, you like that? How about this?" And the banana detaches, travels upwards and (gently) slaps me in the face. I recoil and make a pouty face while the banana continues to make contact with my cheeks. "LUUUBEY! Yeahhhh! Thats a banana with a condom on it. And now its on YO FACE!"

Thanks Luke. Thank you.


I later find out that they a friend who stayed the night left some of his condoms in the living room. Not just any ol' run of the mill condom, but a more embarassing variety, known as the "Snuggerfit." For small peeps.

That made it funnier.

Rage X

Now that I have been absent for almost a month, I feel that I should at least post something to follow my last one so that anyone casually perusing new reads will not know me only as the blue suede shoe lover. I swear there is more to me than that.

So, briefly, since I have last posted all of my roommates have returned, I saw my parents twice, got a haircut, was more hung-over than I ever have been, and started classes (Habari gani, marafiki!)

Obviously there has been more going on, but that is all I can bear to brief about.

Also, seriously, from now on, interesting posts. At least twice a week. Hopefully one a day.


And just for fun, me at my finest:
