A Midsummer Night's Dream (Summer 2014 Secret Santa) Discussion

[trekkersangel]

ha ha ha.  I just added my "Krazy Kingdom" blog to my signature.  Fairy Godmother, if you REALLY want to get to know me just click on there.  It basically shows you what life is like when you have 6 kids!  You'll get a good laugh for sure.

This is really fun getting to know you all.  I'm enjoying this a lot.  You guys are so much fun.

OMG your blog is awesome.  That transformers cake... and the disneyland.... sooooo cute!

On a more shallow note I LOVE your lippies in the pics of you.  They are so pretty!

Just noticed your new profile pic! beautiful!!! 

on another note, I feel like the only one who hasn't bought their FGC anything yet! I've shopped my stash already but trying to carefully plan what to buy!

I haven't yet, either, since I've had a lot of expenses with moving, etc. But I do have a few items I stashed away for this /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Shopping will start soon!

 

[yousoldtheworld]

Same here if anyone wants a friend /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'm always on FB and I finally just got instagram but it's really fun so far!

Me too! My stuff is in my signature, I'm always down for more friends. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I really do love all of you so much.  I am so grateful I found this forum.

Notice she doesn't love us. :lol:

Should we be offended? /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

That's my favorite flavor. I still like it but it's so different from when I first started eating it like a decade ago. Coffee ice cream, huge broken candy bar pieces, the end. Now it's got, like toffee swirls that make me think the candy bar has melted and like chocolate shavings and maybe half a heath bar lol I still love the combo too much to give it up though :wub:

They just changed it from Heath Bars to generic toffee bars that are much thicker and not nearly as good! I literally cried!

She likes us and loves you! Watch out Hubby!

 

[tweakabell]

UGH it was already annoying. Thankfully I don't eat it often. Hopefully it won't be a big issue. I'm very set in my ways I don't know what I'll do if I have to find something new.

You latest are pulling off the stops. I can't wait to see the reveals and all the different bags.

One of my housemates just after I graduated from college went to the university right down the road from the Ben & Jerry's factory/outlet.  They used to go there and get all of the oopsie ice cream that was sold at a huge discount.  According to her, it was mostly ice cream that had *too much* of whatever was being mixed in, like Rainforest Crunch (RIP), cherries, chocolate, cookies, etc.  

ETA:  I find it amusing that Steve Ballmer will be the new owner of the Clippers.  Paul Allen owns the Trailblazers.  Bill Gates needs to find a team to buy now, preferably one that needs to relocate and will happily move to Seattle.  *Still* furious over Sonicsgate even though I'm a native PDXer (born right before tipoff on a game night, if I read the team history correct) who moved back here almost six years ago.

Ugh looks like I'm going to have to get a job. No idea how this is going to work, I have no one to watch Z and hate people with a passion. I'm pretty sure that makes me prime employee material right?

Sorry to hear that /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  I will say that while I'd definitely give up work if I could do so financially, work's not always  so bad...I have had very good and very bad moments at all my jobs just like all areas of life I guess. Maybe you can find one somewhere where you don't have to interact much or at all with stupid people?

@@tweakabell open an etsy shop & free the squids! Heaven knows I'd buy one!!!!!

That's a good idea. I would by a squid.

 

[tweakabell]

I've had jobs like that. I love them, I hole up in a room and just get to churn crap out. The issue is getting them. The ones I've gotten have been referrals, I suck at interviews.

 

[lovepink]

Catching up on this thread was the best part of my day!  Not going to quote everyone but chip in:

1) I may or may not have stalked my FGC after I logged out of MUT to copy their dream list and add it as a document I can refer to on my computer so I am not contanstly clicking their profile.  I also condensed/highlighted key things from their list that I keep in a notepad in my purse so if I am out and about and am like "wait what color x does she hate?" I can refer to it

2) I have lots of things purchased for my FGC including tote bag and wrapping paper.  I have a color scheme in my head I am determined to make happen

3) Yay social media!  You all make me want to link to my social media but all my settings are to private and I am sure people would be bored by my constant makeup/dog posts

@@tweakabell maybe you can get a job you can do late at night like data entry while Z is asleep.  I would try a temp agency first.  The jobs are shorter and you can tailor it more to you/yours/Z's schedule.  Good luck and sorry that you have to search in the first place.

I had an etsy shop for bridal stuff. People would like it and then never buy. It eventually got to where I stopped reupping the listings. (I know I've had my hand in a lot of jars. I don't like to be idle.)

Those squids would be outrageously priced. Material is so expensive now.

School lets out in a week there is no Z's schedule she's mine, all mine for 2 months lol and I'll be gone for a week in the middle of Jun. Honestly, I'm just not sure how this is going to work out. I know hubby likes the new job and its an awesome opportunity but I wish it paid a little better.
