Callie is missing

Callie has been missing for about a week. She sometimes disappears but not for longer than about 2-3 days. I know I shouldn’t worry, and she is a stray (I guess that’s why they are called that, they stray), but still, where could she be? Maybe someone else took her in their house, as a neighbor did in the past, or she is just out galavanting around. I hope so…I called the Humane Society and they told me they can’t do identifications by phone and we’d have to come in and check. The thing is that they would charge like $50 just for her get out of jail free card, (that is IF she is even there) and since she is a stray it could happen again. But…I don’t want them to euthanize her…Come back Callie, we miss you!


Callie, where are you?

Daisy Style for the Ween Concert

On the poll, “Daisy Style” won by a landslide. In case you were wondering what some of the “others” were, we had two blanks, and two write-ins: Yourself, and Red to wear my sexy red shoes. I was actually hoping that Daisy would win because we have so many daisies in our backyard right now that I wanted to do something with them.

When I saw that Daisy was probably going to win, I thought about how I could use them. I thought of a daisy chain necklace or possibly pinning them into my hair. Then I decided I was going to wear a flower garland in my hair. Then, I looked in my hair supply drawer and found a headband that would work perfectly.

In case you ever want to try this out, it was extremely easy. I did it on my lunch break yesterday.
1) Gather the daisies, leave about 2 inches of stem. Depending on the look, pick flower sizes accordingly.
2) Lay the daisies out in the order you want them placed.
3) Insert into the headband starting with the middle and working outword.

4) Add water and refrigerate until use.

5) Add a flowery dress, some accessories and Voila! Daisy girl!


Also added some daisy earrings

The concert was pretty fun. I didn’t know very many songs compared to Britton and it was super hot in there. It was basically an old hangar that was converted into a theatre and it felt like there was no air conditioning at all. We were sweating, and my poor daisies only lasted about an hour in there before wilting. When we first got there some girl came up and hugged me when she saw the daisies. (Yes, There were a lot of hippies!) We went out to Buca Di Beppo for dinner and that was pretty fun too. Overall, a great kickoff for my birthday. Thanks everyone for voting!! 🙂

Ween Tonight!

Oh and Daisy won.  We shall post pics tomorrow.

I wasn’t supposed to work today but I did.  I am attempting to gain some ground doing QA and taking on System Admin functions.  My ideal plan here is to show the company that I am valueable and useful.  That way when the day comes that I move to PR, I’d love to take my job with me and if not I’ve learned ALOT.

This is going to happen, I just have to try hard…which is what I am doing.  I think I put as much effort into my daily work as a construction worker does when he builds a road.  Mine is just mental, but man….I am tired at the end of the day.   I could just sit around and do nothing and still get paid, but I dont think that is fair to myself or the company.

So Ween is tonight which kicks off Cassie’s birthday weekend.  I have off till Friday.  One of the good things about having her birthday in the summer is it gives us an excuse to relax and enjoy the summer. 

I’ve included a ween song on this post instead of any images.  Hope you enjoy.  Courtesy of ween.net.
