Chores and Pirates...
A couple of fun and different squeeze bracelets for ya...
Somebody asked me if I'd be doing another Scavenger Hunt like I did when the last Pirates movie came out, which was kinda ironic cause I had just finished deleting most or all of those pages on my site..however, I had been thinking of doing another scavenger hunt, (I'll just make new pages, that's all), but first I need to make some groovy beads for it...I will post announcements on when it'll take place, and what the prize(s) will be for it...why not...!
I need to mow the lawn while the shade is still in the front yard, then I'll come inside and string up the beads I made yesterday...Tonight is our Pirates Feast, finally...I feel like the whole world has seen the movie except me...I can't even read the cover story in my Entertainment Weekly about the making of the movie, in case its full of spoilers...
Did you watch the trivia show last night? I'm still having fun watching it, although one of the contestants was an obnoxious troll who kept screeching and yelling and I was hoping they'd lose so we wouldn't have to deal with her anymore, but alas, they won, so more screeching abounds...ugh...
I'm still waiting for my 'clean' fuel to arrive, I couldn't find it locally, so I had to order it, but I got plenty, so new silver should be showing up here very soon...sounds like I need to make some larger rings (dangle and plain), as well as more bracelets...so look for those soon, I'll keep ya aprised..
I lusted after the Orange sun pendant that Kate McKinnon posted recently, but of course it was the first item that sold and I missed out...dang it...but, she's added me in her links section as well as on her shag carpet kit page...awesome! I don't even mind that my name is spelled wrong...heh...I was going to take her PMC class this weekend in California, but when we had dinner at B&B (that was a great evening with Gail Crosman Moore, Michele Goldstein, Gail Lannum, Anne Mitchell, Kate and me), I said I'd rather go to her new home in Tucson, since I was feeling like driving, and Tucson is way closer than Pacific Grove...which worked out perfectly for her too, since the class was overbooked...so I think I'm going out there in November...I think a drive to Tucson would be fun, once I get out of Texas, its not that much further...I think the drive to El Paso is 9 hours...12 hours? someone told me once, I'm not sure what it was...but in November, it'll be cooler and I can put the top down on the car and enjoy the weather...
Alrighty, enough yakking, I hear other mowers in the neighborhood (one was going at 7:30 this morning - nice), so I better go participate...back in a bit...

I haven't seen the new Pirates movie yet either. I did have fun with the EW magazine. I refused to read the article, but I had fun looking at the pretty pictures.
At McDonalds they have a contest right now and one of the prizes is an iPod with Captain Jack Sparrow on it. *drool* I think I'd rather have that than the SUV thing. iPods get better gas mileage. If you want free game codes you can go to www.playmcd.com and get 7 free codes a day. You have to give 'em some sort of email to send your code to, but you can fudge your phone number. I threw in a 555 in there and it took it just fine.
I'm hoping to see Pirates this weekend! I need my "swish-buckling" fix. I promise no spoilers if I do get a chance to see it.
