show off

I am so excited!  Jeff and I have only really gardened this year and the year before, so I still get really excited when things don't die!  Look how pretty (and tiny) my veggies are!  And for the record, sun gold tomatoes are soppsed to be tiny (but they taste amazing!!!!!).  When my pepper grows up, it's going to be a red bell.

no I didn't die

Sorry, sometimes it seems like I haven't posted in FOREVER!  and other times I really feel like posting 20 things in an afternoon.  I'm kind of a super spaz.

crazy apple crazies

Anyone who got their new 4G iphone today is a crazy person.  Trust me on this.  I had work today at 6am, but I was a little early, so I got to the mall around 5:30 (I know... ick, right?) and the usually empty parking lot was mad full.  I was kinda confused, but I figured, whatever.  Then as I walked up to the entrance there was this huge crowd of people lined up and two mall cops next to the doors.  I know its crazy, but my first thought was totally "oh my god.  There must be a hostage situation or something."  Yeah, I've seen way to many movies...So I go up to a mall cop and ask what's going on.  He tells me all these losers (my word, not his) are waiting to get their stupid (again, my words, not his) new iphones.  Apparentally some of these crazies had been waiting since 6pm last night.  I have to say, I did feel way VIP when the mall cop unlocked the doors and let me in right in front of the crazies in line.  Woohoo!  At 6:30 the losers were let into the mall to the apple store (which was being all secretive with black material covering the windows) and put in two lines.  One for people who preorders, and one for suckers for didn't.  Each line started at the store entrance, and ended in seperate directions down the mall.  I had an excellant vantage point of this whole charade because my store is right across from Apple.  At 7 the doors opened, the employees ran out past everyone in line (all several thousand of them, and not I am not making up the size!) and clapped and yelled and acted like idiots.  When I left the mall at 10am, the lines had only gotten bigger, despite the fact that the phones had been selling for the past 3 hours.  For those of you who are familiar with the Arden Fair layout, one line exited Apple and wound around past Macy's and in front of The Children's Place.  So yeah, you people are all crazy!  And by the way crazy people, why are you at the mall at 10am on a thursday?  Shouldn't you be at work so you can pay for your expensive monthly phone bill?  What do you people do for a living that THOUSANDS of you can just take the morning off?

wrong time buddy

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't owls supposed to hoot at night and sleep during the day?  Its almost noon, and I've got an owl just chilling in one of the trees surrounding my backyard just hooting to his little heart's content.  Well, it is just one owl.  Maybe he's confused.

If you haven't yet read this book you need to.  So good!  And if you have, then the movie comes out on DVD the first week of July.  I missed it in theaters, so I can't wait to see it now.  I will warn you though that its in Swedish with subtitles.  You know, I don't think I've ever seen a Swedish movie before.  Tak ("thank you" in Swedish -its really the only word I know) for listening.  :)

wrong season

Um, I really think my store is confused about what season it is because when I came in today there were multiple designs and colors of sweatshirts, sweaters, jackets, and thermal shirts for baby and toddler.  I'm kinda confused by this because I was under the impression that I live in California and not Siberia.  I mean, who wants to even THINK about buying fall clothes in mid June?  Eew.  I say bring on the swimsuits! (which, by the way we are running out of, because they are all on sale in a back corner to make room for important things like jackets).

this just looks wrong!

Yes, it realize it is a "dogs" "expo".  But I really think the S should havebeen removed in the web address.  It just looks wrong!  Please tell me its not just me who sees this.
