I did it.

Tuesday, September 2, 2008

So, yesterday my friend Autumn and I had a date to get bangs. By the time I got to the salon, I was sweating so bad I was wishing I had put on my certain dry the night before. Seriously, that stuff works. Autumn, who had previously had bangs, and was just getting them trimmed really, went first. And as she was getting hers cut, I kept going back and forth in my head with "Don't do it Tia... no, wait... do it right now, before you change your mind... too late, run! ...um, you didn't run, so suck it up and put on the cape lady!". And then before I knew it, my head was in the sink, and I was getting splashed in the face by mists of shampoo water. A few snips later...

Monday suck-day, take 3!

Monday, September 1, 2008

I can't say that Monday sucks all that much this time around, since a lot of us have the day off because of the holiday. But if you're one of the few that doesn't, than this Monday probably extra sucks, and you need this giveaway twice as much. Last night Christopher accidentally let the cat out while him and Eleanore were outside playing. Or, actually, when he had to bring Elie inside for a timeout, the cat slipped out, and then slipped his mind. Last night after we finished watching 10,000 BC, I noticed the cat's water was empty, which triggered a "speaking of Bomber" reaction from Christopher, followed by an hour outside with the flashlight. She usually doesn't like to be outside for more than 5 minutes, so as soon as we open the door for her, there she is, screaming for us and practically climbing into our arms. The few times that she has gotten out overnight and wandered away, shes been home by daylight. But this morning, there is no sign of her. I'm a worried Mama. Monday... you suck.

But what can you count on to be the bright side of every Monday suck-day? Our giveaway!! The rules: This week, etsy user Maggie has whipped up a few batches of her totally badass Monster guitar pick earrings, like the Frankenstein ones shown above. And the best part is, Maggie is giving a pair away, free, to YOU! So, Monday haters, grab your mouse and head on over to her shop by either clicking here, or clicking on the Frankenstein earrings way up there, and then hurry back and leave us a comment with your name, email, all that good stuff, telling us which set of Monster picks are your favorite (and thats the pair that you'll win!)! Good luck suck-day'ers! We'll pick a winner Thursday morning...
