( Cut for details! )
has anyone ordered and received their shoes from rosechocolat after they re-opened their online store? how's the quality and how long did it take?
Today was part 1 of "let's make sure the FHA doesn't turn down this house" fixer-upping. Went all 1989-Berlin on a basement wall, to see what was behind it. Turns out, it was a lot of sand that had gotten in through cracks in the basement foundation. No biggie. Just seal up the cracks, and sweep away the old sand.
We marked all the faulty power outlets. There were a lot of them, and they all have different problems. No ground, switched up hot and neutral wires, lack of power. It will be harder to fix than we thought, but it'll just take more time, no more money. (Good!) Removed a window to fix it, measured some things.
Went to Home Depot for mortar. $4 gets you enough to re-mortar the house 3 times, but the grout bag costs $8. Insanity! Then... we went to the dump. Oh. My. God. I love the dump. They pick through the garbage and salvage things, which they sell in the dump store. So much cool shit! But they make it way more expensive than things salvaged from trash piles should be, so I didn't buy anything. (Dad said the dump in Kalamazoo is cheaper, so I'll go there.) But the place was chock full of awesome stuff that I can't believe people threw away.
As for the new diet, I can never eat within the first two hours of waking up. I will immediately get sick. I've been this way for a while. So by the time 2 hours had gone by from waking-up time, I was already working on the house. When we got done, Dad wanted to go to Mr. Burger. Most everything there is glutenous. I ended up getting eggs, potatoes, and fruit all a la carte. I know there was cross-contamination, but it was the best I could do.
I am starting to think this might not be Celiac, which is good. My health has been a bit up and down still, but it's more greasy foods that make me hurt than glutenous foods. I'm still going to finish the 7 days sans-gluten, just to rule it out.

-Work on Lesbian Pirates Pt. 2 Issue 4 (10% done)
Most of this stuff is due by the end of the summer. Some of it by much earlier than that. Plus, I'm going to be closing on the house (hopefully!), and packing, and moving. And working at the day job. It's going to be a hectic summer. It's probably a good thing my roommate is moving out and taking his TV with him.
Do any of you have pictures of brown x mint coordinates?
I always thought it would look nice and i maybe want to try it myself.
Thank you ^^
So, we've all fantasized about our dream houses (or castles).
But what about transportation?
How will you get to your fabulous new place?
( Have a few pics to get the discussion rolling. )

Well, the meetup is only about 2 weeks away, and nobody has contacted me about going yet. I just thought I would post a reminder in case anyone missed it the first time.
( Information here. )
Yes I like Britney Spears, she might not be the best singer but she certainly has kept me entertained since middle school ahaha....
here's what I found from her Paris Tour album on facebook:
and for those with facebook, here's the link http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=19
What a shocker eh? In a good way of course! I always thought the Britney-loving side of me clashed horribly with the cosplay/EGL-loving side, so it was a very nice confirmation that I'm not the only geeky chick out there with a serious streak of preppy-ness!
With that said, anyone know this loli? The picture was taken in Paris and I'm not sure how strongly the community leans towards Europe.
UPDATE: So according to a facebook comment this girl is Laura Mazas you go girl!
So within the past year, I have made a few purchases on Yahoo Japan Auctions through Crescent Shop. Well, I just recently noticed that if another user is bidding using Crescent Shop, then you cannot bid on that same item. Essentially, "saving" the item for that customer. It's bothersome because I would have liked to try my hand at winning that item. :(
Well, my question is: can anyone recommend another shopping service (with a quick response / turnaround) to use in this type of situation?
I'd definitely like to know so I don't have the same problem in the future. Please don't recommend Celga since I've heard about / seen poor performance on their end over the course of many years and as a result, I don't really want to risk trying them out. Thanks in advance!
