*surely grinning* "You're psychotic!"
*huffing* "I'm not psychotic, I'm creative!"
He didn't quite catch on the the #s thing very quickly... (or maybe even at all [fully] until I reiterated it thoroughly) but he liked it, he really liked it!
I was, admittedly, worried he'd heeve-ho, and think it was dumb/silly & perhaps even a bother... but, yeah. He liked it *nodding happily*
there's more where that came from...
- HotWheels Mini-Cooper
- a pair of work gloves
- little bottles of bubbles (not realizing the #s thing yet, this was surely confusing/baffling... but one had to get creative when filling up 27 varieties. I didn't want it to be %100 edibles: bo-ring!)
- big jars of Pace Medium Salsa (*grin* they were extra large bonus buys... and his [only] pick[y fave]!)
- Incredibles plate
- travel-size Kleenex (he actually asked about these, I stammered a bit of response of, "to take with you, like in your lunchbox or even your glove compartment... just in case?!")

- oz. of baker's chocolate for dipping (yum!)
- mini KitKat bars
- tea-light candles in a chocolatey/coffee/hazelnut-esque flavor
- mini BabeRuth bars
- Hebrews 11
- Brian & Jen Johnson's new cd
- individually wrapped bags of Stash Holiday Chai (only available in their Chai sampler, or from Stash direct... I had to scour my own stash & the shelves of every shop in the valley to conjure this bag *heavy sigh*)
- Orbit gum
- White Chocolate Reese's Peanutbutter Cups
- Laffy Taffy
- a box of '#17' Linguini & [bonus bag!] 17 episodes of Alias: Season 5 made available through NetFlix [2 discs at a time!]
- Stash Decaf Chocolate Hazelnut tea
- Menthol Ricola
- Tazo Mate Tropic
- 3 bags of Barbara's Jalapeño Cheese Puffs [7oz. each]
- Pink York Peppermint Patties (for Breast Cancer Awareness)
- a 23% tip at the restaurant of his choice [on the night of his choice] for a birthday dinner (he asks, "What if the service is really bad?"
I honestly quipped, "Then they'll be blessed!"
I think he just lightly laughed, I may have actually heard him shaking his head as well!)
- Lemon-Mint Ricola
- Armor-All Glass Wipes (I got some to try for my car & our road trip... and he exclaimed, after using one, "They really work!")
- Dulce de Leche Oreos
- HotWheels DropTop [#27]
...enough already!

Smart v. Stupid
Ok people[s] let's check what is Smart and what is Stupid on WordDisplay today! I'm still a bit foggy on the whole concept of WordDisplay... but I'll be playing around with it. & especially appreciating funky details like this *throws head back in friday night, schoolgirl-esque, fun laughter*
there's more where that came from...
Do you think I should try and come up with a submission/entry for WordDisplay? What should it be... words? ideas? help me out here...
...enough already!

I wanna call it 'Marathon Monday', but it's Friday...
I'm home...
celebrating a bit of Jonathan's Birthday (despite the particular physical presence of the celebrated!) with some O.C., a bit of The Facts Of Life, a movie or two?, and maybe even an episode of Bridezilla!
Add to that some popcorn, peanutbutter M&M's, and the cherry on top?: a White Russian (that would be the ode to JDM of the night!)
there's more where that came from...
Yay for a fun/cozy friday night, after a long week figuring out this whole archival thing!
ftr: the man, has yet to actually open the 27 bags, in fact he's left them right where they were... I wouldn't have the self-control!
...enough already!

Just when you thought they'd covered all the bases. Now you can secure items in an Online Safe Deposit Box. Accessible whenever, and wherever, great for important documents & information in cases of emergency, natural disaster, and/or other crazy situations!
At first my thoughts went to dire documents (special picture files: weddings, backup tax returns/info, big projects: music/media, & such) but now I'm leaning more towards medical records/info, insurance policies, identification documents, serial numbers, and maybe even a last will & testament!
Coolest deal of the bunch is that you can get a free small-sized Online Safe Deposit Box for a year... and upgrade to a larger [permanent] box for as low as $3 a month. I may just have to test drive this thing!
there's more where that came from...
Sure, right about now you're asking yourself ('cause I certainly was/am) what about security? Are random folks at the company going to be looking at all this sacred information I'm storing there?
Fear not. They use encription, and the kind of top-of-the-line security approved by the the US Goverment for Top Secret classified information. I say... lock 'er up!
*off to decide what to hide away*
Of Note: you don't want to go about losing/forgetting your password. They do not store it, therefore it is unretrievable! Better be memorable!
...enough already!
