Bat For Lashes - What's A Girl To Do

We walked arm in arm
But I didn't feel his touch
A desire I'd first tried to hide,
That tingling inside was gone
And when he asked me:
'do you still love me?'
I had to look away
I didn't want to tell him
That my heart grows colder with each day

Confession

I am that girl you hear singing Johnny Cash at 3 in the morning.

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine.
I keep my eyes wide open all the time...
...because you're mine,
I walk the line...

...Yes, I'll admit that I'm a fool for you.

Random thought as I brush my hair.

I've decided to take SGT Walker's advice and become a ninja. Watch your back, kids.

Lumigram Clothing

Using fiber-optic technology, French company LumiGram has created a cloth that glows! It's not glow-in-the-dark, rather it actually casts a soft light - each clothing item comes with a battery pack that will keep your clothes glowing for around 12 hours after each charge.





Here's the website: LumiGram

I stole this from my friends blog, but I thought it was good enough to share... (thanks Sara)

Useless facts:
The female Adelie penguin, desperate to obtain the stones she uses to build her nest, visits the nest of a bachelor Adelie, goes through the entire courtship routine, and mates with him. But once the two have had sex, the female collects the stones she came for as a sort of payment, and waddles back home to her actual mate, who’s been keeping the nest nice and warm for her return! She then stays with him for the rest of her life. Sometimes, especially cunning females engage in the courtship ritual, minus the mating part, grab the rocks, and dash home. Luckily, the males of this species, unlike humans, do not seem to bear a grudge.

My Future Family Photo...

...will look a lot like this:

And I do believe my husband will have the same I-can't-believe-I-married-this-crazy-lady look that this guy has.

This is the hairstyle I want.

I think I can pull it off.

Quote of the day: "What's krumping?"

My response: "Well...you kinda move around like you're having a seizure but you keep it really controlled."

Them: "Um, how do you control a seizure?"

Me: "...you krump?"

Life is Expensive

Why do things cost so much? I have to get a new bed and furnish a house in a few months. I've been looking at prices on the "essentials" (mattress, couches, dining room set, etc.) - holy expensive, batman!

I'm thinking about taking the thousands of dollars this is going to cost me and using it to buy a new wardrobe instead. Sure I'll be homeless but at least I'll look hot!

Store I will NOT be shopping at for new wardrobe: American Apparel. We aren't speaking right now.

And we're back...

Amongst my recent travels:

- I found a lemon the size of my head. Biggest lemon I've ever seen. I picked it and made lemonade out of it. Awesome.

- I questioned why other states do not require restaurants to provide toilet seat covers? Seriously, it bothers me.

- I wondered how someone can live an hour away from a grocery store? Do these people not eat store bought icecream? It would melt on the car ride home.

- I found that new hotels are chosing to not put hot tubs in. I don't care if it's dangerous, I think it's a rip off.

- I decided that Rice Crispie Treats are the best dessert ever created.

Penguins

I want a pet penguin. Go ahead, call me crazy - but I've been thinking this one through for years. I'm convinced a penguin is an awesome pet. Here's why:

1. They are super cute.
2. From what I can tell, they are very well mannered and friendly animals.
3. They don't fly and they are not super fast so I don't think I will lose him.
4. I think I can build a very nice habitat with a pool and get one of the breeds that don't need to be in the extreme cold. I can put fish in the pool and let the penguin have a grand time hunting. Easy.

Did I mention how cute penguins are? Seriously, I want one.

Yummy-ish

To Whom It May Concern:

In case you don't know, this week (April 13th - 19th) is National Egg Salad Week! Please enjoy two egg salad sandwiches today (one for you and one in honor of me).

Thank you,
Cyndi


And just so you all have time to prepare...next week is National Karaoke Week. I am so excited.

I am debating between joining the French Foreign Legion or the Spanish Foreign Legion. I do not think I qualify for either, but here's hoping!!

Oddly enough, I think this desire was inspired by Franz Ferdinand.
