what's on the ipod right now? daniel by bat for lashes.
so it's been a fun few days. meggo, jenibean, s-la, and i made our gingerbread...pyramid. it was amazing and infinitely better than that silly kit s-la and i assembled. i blame costco for clouding her mind with happy waves and distracting her into buying it. highlights from this year include kanye woods (a tiger/kanye hybrid gingerbread man), balloon boy stranded atop an obelisk, blink-182 in chocolate santa form, jon & kate plus 8, the hatter from syfy's remake of alice, b!, beat up pete wentz, and the mistresses/cheating girlfriends of the year. oh, and lots and lots of twizzler guts. s-la took some nice pictures of them on her handy dandy (hot pink!) new camera, but some of the pictures are ooh-la-la scandalous, so they're going to have to stay in their secret corner of the internet.
(speaking of secret corners of the internet, this just made me laugh)
the sleepover at meggos was fun. i saw all, like, four hours of alice finally and it was amazing. even if alice had an unusually manly voice. i hope the burton version's going to be just as good (if not better), even if there won't be any pretty people on screen. i managed to stay up until 4:30 - jenibean and meggo were up even later, those crazies, but s-la gave up and abandoned us around 2. we woke up around ten, i think. whatever time it was, it was hideously early, but once i was awake i just couldn't go back to sleep. don't you just hate when that happens? oh, and once again i left things at meggo's - my boots (purposeful; and i have her black flats, they're comfy) and my jacket (very, very accidental). hopefully i'll pick them up wednesday since a little birdie named phoney told me meggo's planning to wear el booties on tuesday.
luckily frank stopped by this afternoon to drop off round two of my christmas prezzies - including a poufy purple jacket and matching scarf! in other words, i am no longer likely to die of pneumonia this week.
after that i did some laundry, took a shower, and power napped until like eight o'clock. it's been a pretty epic day, i think. oh, and i had a dream!
i was standing on an empty road in the country in the new dress i got at nordstrom (why, yes, i did finish my christmas shopping on december 28th, so what?) and out of nowhere a giant ipod on legs appeared. it wasn't a very graceful ipod, either. it's legs were all long and thin and gangly and it seemed kind of bow-legged; it wobbled as it walked toward me. and then it stopped, folded its legs up, and sat down so that it looked like a giant ipod standing on the ground (without visible legs).
and then the ipod speaks. it's got a voice kind of like morgan freeman. it told me to go forth and give people scarves. except for homeless people because it seems like all they have is scarves, so they should get real clothes. and then it told me to wear my hair in princess leia buns. and that my microwave was going to explode on january 1, 2012. oh, and then it promised me that if i followed its directives the sky would rain itunes gift cards that day. after that it did a funny full-body ipod wiggle thing that i just sort of knew was its version of a bow and told me to spread the message to the masses. i wonder if this is how cults begin?
and then i woke up, finally updated the apps on my phone, and downloaded tap tap revenge 3. you...probably don't want to know how long i spent playing that. it's a shamefully large number of hours, though.
hmm, i'm tired. just added new (old) songs to the playlist. stay tuned - whenever i wake up tomorrow i'll post pictures of the new dresses and meggo and s-la's prezzies. but not jenibean's because i ate it already.
