the 'stache

This is the first installment of...



I couldn't go and make a Things that are Awesome list without having my first list be about the 'stache.
Now you may be thinking, "PFFT! You already blogged about facial hair loser!" But PFFT on you! I'll have different people on my list.
Now who's the loser?! Not I, LOSER!
Here are MORE examples of famous people who hold the power of the 'stache:

Gandhi


Ned Flanders (diddly)


The Village People (ignore the Native American)


Mario Mario (Yes, Mario's last name IS Mario)


Alex Trebek


Groucho Marx


The Swedish Chef



Here is Mario Mario showing us the different kinds of mustaches there are.


If you don't enjoy the fun/awesome-ness of the mustache, then clearly you are missing out.
For those of you with mustaches that have been looking for a good mustache institution, look no further.

You're welcome.

what?

so wait a second.
Did I fall asleep for a couple of weeks?
How is it only 10 more days until christmas?
What happened?
The weirder part of all of this... other than 1 gift I need to get and 2 gifts I'm getting in the mail. I'm DONE with christmas shopping. I'm pretty amazed with myself. Usually I'm still running around trying to get gifts.
Not this time.

However, I have been busy.
Orders have been coming in quickly and cuddle time with my dog has been a high priority due to the cold weather.


ok.
So I just decided that I have neglected my blog.
So I am going to start posting things that I think are awesome.
Whether it be other items from etsy, words that I enjoy saying and/or hearing, TV shows, etc, I'm going to start.

Today, it will be cuddling with pets.
It is pretty awesome when they do it.
Did you not see the smile on my face?
Well, look again.

better than

I was never athletic. I'm still not.
I never placed in anything, which always meant I was always placed in the "honorable mention" categories.
You know, the ribbon they give out to the rest of the kids that didn't place in 1st, 2nd or 3rd so that they feel better and can at least bring something home to your parents.

But now, I don't mind at all. Hell, I bask in the idea of being part of the honorable mention category. To me, its better than 1st.
This shirt is dedicated to all those honorable mention kids.

I heart nerds

I love mythbusters. Reassuring everyone that I really an a nerd.
But nerds are in, right? RIGHT!?

Anyway, I learned a lot from Mythbusters. Now whether they can be 100% conclusive with their findings, I don't know, but its just so fun to watch.
Here are some things that I have learned:

- Pirates use the eye patch to be able to have a night adjusted eye.
(above possibility reassures that pirates were cool and smart)
- daddy long legs can bite through our skin, and their venom is not deadly
- When blown through a cannon, certain cheeses can be deadly.
- Beer before liquor not necessarily sicker
- room temperature beer + ice + salt = cold beer in 5 minutes
- I want their job
- a car with their windows down saves more on gas then turning on the AC
- etc

What would I have done without you mythbusters?
Gotten the same geeky information via the internet? BORING!
Watching then try to figure it out and in the process be nerds and/or make fools of yourself is so much better.

Thanks.
Love,
Jess

P.S - I LOVE those guys but not enough to eat my cat.

P.P.S - No that apparently is not a joke. She's as "serious as a heart attack"

P.P.P.S - yes, that is an actual quote.

pre halloween

So happy halloween. Most likely I will not post again until after the halloween festivities.
So here is my last halloween photo.
I'll miss doing these. But maybe I'll still make scary/creepy pictures. We'll see.

I really enjoy Halloween.
As a child I always dressed up. Typically because everyone else did, but I don't think I was excited about Halloween as a child as I am now. Something about the crazy costumes and makeup. The children screaming because they ate way too much candy and are on a sugar rush.
Plus I've been on this scary photo kick. I'm really enjoying it. On top of the fun-ness, I'm learning more on photoshop.
Fun and learning? you might be thinking, that's crazy. But its true.

hollows even

I'm not sure how many more scary Halloween photos I'll do, but it was fun and I would like to do more. But I guess I'll settle with having at least one done.
Everyone should try it.
