Cuppycake gumdrops

I love cupcakes.

I made dinner again tonight. I made this so if you ever want to try something different but simple, there you go. I thought it was pretty good. I didn't take a picture though. Oh btw, someone asked if I made the french toast in that one picture and yes I did.

I love the smell of fresh lemons. That meal doesn't have a strong lemon flavor though, btw.

Oh now I want lemonade.

I get to open the gift from Isaac in the morning! YAY!

I need to clean my room. Bye!

HAPPY ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY* ISAAC!!! I love you.
*If you are the type of person who thinks of marriage when you think of anniversary, like I am, I want to clear that it is not a wedding anniversary but a relationship anniversary. There you go.

What up duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude

Having a year off of working (though I did go to school a little bit and stuff) really made me lazy man! I mean, before I would have been ok with working 4 days in a row (though I would have HATED it since one day at Toys R Us was more than enough) but my legs and back just hurt so much. Cutting fabric involves me being a little bit slumped over the table and that is killer. I was so excited to be able to completely relax today though. I slept in until almost 10 and most of that sleep was wonderful. I then woke up and slowly made my way to the TV and watched the Tyra show and then continued with laziness. It was nice.
Anyways I must say that this place is probably 1000000X better than Toys R Us was and I really don't mind 8 hour shifts at all here. I am just a little tired afterwards but that's it. Yaya!

Ok so Isaac and I celebrate our 1 year on Sunday weeeee! I have this box in my room with a gift from him but I can't open it yet so I don't know what it is. He gave me a hint but I can't figure it out so I just have to wait. Eeeeeh!!!! He already knows what I got him but he can't open it yet either. :)

I WANT TO KNOW WHAT IT IS!!!!!

Looking through a glass onion

What bugs me about when people comment on blogs is that I don't have a way of replying that they would see. I don't know. So I will say a couple things here:

" Martyn said...

Is it really T.J. Maxx in the US? - or was that a typo?

My nearest one in the UK is T.K. Maxx!

Would be weird if it was different! :)"

Isaac and I talked about this. It really IS T.J. Maxx here. It is the same though! Here's a quote from it's Wikipedia page: "T.K. Maxx is a chain of off-price department stores in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The company is part of the TJX Companies which also owns other department store companies such as T.J. Maxx."
It's weird that they would bother having a difference in names, especially one so slight. Oh well.


And...

18 aussie dollars an hour? That seems like a lot to me. Maybe most of it goes to vegemite or something? Sorry, lame joke. Anyways, what are taxes and stuff like?



ANYWAYS, I need to go get ready for work.
Byes.

I made dinner tonight...

French toast w/ Strawberries

One of my favorites for breakfast. Mmm! It was yummy.

Lazy rainy day.

I think I was dead today. Really. I woke up quite early and spent most of the day watching TV. I don't do this often. Maybe more than those "TV is so not cool - I'm too good for television" types of people but really not often. I just chilled in my sweat pants and indulged in Little House on the Prairie. That's right!
I eventually made it to my room where I continued to be lazy. Started with a little cam chatting with Isaac (which, btw, Skype keeps dropping our calls randomly... PSH!) then I watched a million videos.
It was a rainy day today anyways so it was perfect to be lazy.
I called in work this morning because I got a message from the manager yesterday. Some lady was pregnant and left without warning so I am taking her shifts next week. This means I have 32 hours next week on Monday through Thursday. Considering Monday is going to have a big sale, I am a little freaked out. I'm NEW and still having problems trying to figure some stuff out. I can't even remember how to clock in! And they are going to be expecting me to do all of this new stuff when a whole bunch of people will be there for the sale. Ah! Nervous! But I should be getting some good money for that week alone. Thank God for Oregon's minimum wage being pretty good. $7.95 now. Isn't that higher than most states? Washington has the highest.

Ok I don't know what I'm talking about anymore.

Oh I saw these pretty rockin' zebra striped dishes in T.J. Maxx yesterday. They were those squarish types of plates and stuff. Ah I loved them. I am just drawn to black and white stuff. I want them, rawr.
