We had tickets Saturday night to see Korn play at the Myth NIghtclub....a HUGE band playing before a PACKED audience of 5,000 or so..... Doors were supposed to open at 6 so we thought we'd show up late....there was still a long-ass line when we got there at 7:15 and we had to wait outside in the freezing cold. I hate that! Then another 10-15 minutes to get a beer (which cost $5.00 before the tip). The show sounded pretty kick-ass, but I could hardly see a thing....it was truly packed and nearly impossible to make your way through the crowded floor, so I resorted to the best I could find....about 4 people back from the lower balcony. I wish I had gotten there earlier to get a better place on the floor. It was still a great show... I love it when Jonathan Davis comes out and plays his bagpipes......sounds so cool!
What else is new? I might need some help here, people.
I am on the search for a new Vaccum AND a new scanner. My Kenmore Vaccuum exploded and died last week. Hoping to get something powerful that picks up all the cat hair. Maybe a Dyson? I don't know anything about vaccums! I don't want to pay more than $600......What brands should I look into?
I also need a new scanner..... my Canoscan died last night while trying to scan my latest LO (layout). This is the 2nd time that has happened in the past year. I am taking it back tonight since I have a warranty for it. Hoping to get something better. The resolution on this one is great and it is very small and lightweight.....which I think is also the reason it broke and why it makes such dark shadows....I need something with a heavier lid. Any recommendations??? Now if only the 12 x12 scanners would come down in price so that I could get one and avoid the tedious process of stitching of my LOs!
I need to get my Holdiay Wish List typed out.... I have lots of ideas of what I want this year. This makes things so much easier for my family. Brian, Michelle & Jeff, I want wish lists from you too! I am one of those people who hates Christmas shopping because of the crowds, lack of parking, etc. I would avoid it altogether if I had to randomly search for gifts without a clue! Do you want gift cards again???
My friend Lanee got her very first cell phone this weekend. Wow! Congrats Lanee, for attempting to join the 21st Century girl! First a DVD player and now a cell phone. If only you knew how to use a computer and the Internet, we'd really be getting somewhere! Lol
My friend Keith in Missouri called me on Saturday. I hadn't talked to him in awhile. He is getting married at the end of the month! Congrats, Keith! Now send me some pics of the family, will ya???
I need some dinner ideas. Especially crockpot recipes. E is working 12 hour days/6-7 days a week until after Christmas and I am starving and tired by the time he gets home. I don't want to have to worry about din-din every night!
I still need to go to the scrap store to buy new albums for my upcoming Circle Journals. My scheme for the color CJ is purple/silver. Still haven't figured out what I am doing for the other CJ. Maybe Favorite Places??
I bought several new books yesterday at Shinders. Stockin' up for my upcoming vacation......Only two more weeks of work until I get two weeks + a day off for Winter Break!!! Let me know if you'd like to get together!
PS I haven't changed this banner in almost a month....because I am not sick of it yet! I think that is a new record. Maybe I'll do a holiday one soon. Hey Raina, did you figure our how to get Christmas music on your banner yet? Let me know when you do! Otherwise Sade will continue to sing for your listening pleasure.
xoxo

Hi there!
Wow, you sound soooo busy! I just came back from Disneyland....I'll try to post tomorrow morning if I can. I came back to work today and haven't had a minute to spare. Well, just right now I wanted to check in and say hi to you, LOL.
I think I figured out my theme for the CJ...it will have a three part question.
1. When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?.
2. What do you do for a living?
3. If you had the opportunity to change your career, what would you choose and why?
What do you think of these questions for the CJ...I'm getting excited over this one too. The color CJ I'm totally ready to start working on -I just need a free couple of nights.
Oh yes, what books did you buy?
