Two Dozen

I am two dozen years old

The cupcakes (pictured above) were made from scratch by my lovely mother. They were FABULOUS!!!!

Lola came over in our tradition of celebrating our birthdays together. We were born on the same day month and year.

I am feeling old and wise hahaha

Girl Crush

Just saw her in Gigantic and she was fabulous (as usual)
Love her helmet in Yes Man...i want it
Love that she's pale
Love that she's quirky and sassy
Love that she does independent films
I just really love Zoey Deschanel

Dentist Update

I threw up all over during my root canal.
They forgot to bib me so it got all over my favorite Obama shirt and brand new hoodie
Oh, and Ian was there and got to witness it in all its disgusting glory
Not to mention I was very drugged up and ridiculous
But he loves me anyway, and came over to take care of me, and didn't even make fun of me..
well not too much

Yes, he is that cool.

Well well well

Hello my name is Bethany
and I've been working graveyards.
B + Graveyards = boo + disorientation (and desire to pluck out eyes while working)

Due to said shift I
a) never know what day it is
b) always feel tired
c) can't sleep at "normal" times when not working

However I also
a) Watch loads of movies/ so you think you can dance clips on YouTube
b) Have been making jewelry and crafting like crazy
c) Make tons and tons of lists...to say I am a list person is a huge understatement

ohhhhhh...and I just realized school starts MONDAY....
as in this monday
as in 5 days
and I am not registered.

God Bless Graveyards

P.S. I have to get a root canal tomorrow. I'm rather anxious, so anxious in fact that I will be taking Valium and getting gas. When I am at the dentist I get the urge to run all around the room crying and gnashing my teeth. Its bad. I'd appreciate any good vibes you can send my way. Oh, and lets hope I don't act like David at the dentist and end up on YouTube.

What I've Been Up To

a) Well...I am back in the good old City of Cedars. Working two graveyard shifts a week. Which means I have loads of time to do the following:

-Read
Just finished these two books
The Hour I First Believed was so so so great. It is basically about trials and human emotion/reaction. It is centered around a couple and the tragedies they experience (Columbine shooting, death, lies, adultery, Hurricane Katrina etc). I liked the real-ness and its quite a long book but it didn't feel like it at all. Note: There is some adult material and some language --F words--. So if that kind of stuff offends you this is not the book for you.
Fluke was also a delight. Its about a marine biologist. It gets quite strange in the last half, but i liked it. A good mix of science and fantasy. Note: Also a few F words.

-Blog stalking
I kind of love, love so when I stumbled upon leloveimages.blogspot.com I was in heaven. It is a photo blog centered around all that is lovie, romantic, passionate, cozy ect.
Example:

-Etsy dreaming.
Etsy...oh how I love you.

b) I have also been happy to be home and enjoying more of this....{Don LaVange Photography}

c) Saw Comedy of Errors and Private Lives. I recommend both of them, festival has some great plays this season.

d) Loving that the pub re-opened and eating there more than I should.

e) Catching up with friends

f) Planning Adventures. -- Missoula Montana, Victoria Canada, Seattle, and EUROPE(i hope)--

g) Doing some fun community service projects at work...such as re-painting Park Discovery and getting sunburned while doing it. boo.

h) Participating in the Lovely Package Exchange of 2009. Which I found out about on ohhellofriend.blogspot.com I have a name and info sheet about someone and they have my info and you put together a lovely package for your partner. Then you each get something lovely in the mail.....ooooh I am so excited.
