Wicked Cup of Joe

WOO HOO - Chicago (I believe!) here we come!

TwiCon 2009! I can’t believe it. I am soooo stoked. My sister and I will be going to it. I’m hoping that the weather is nice because I’d like to see Chicago along with the twicon.

Told you I was obsessed. Thankfully I’ve got family and friends who are equally obsessed.

It’s official.  Every morning, I log onto the computer, sit down, and type etsy into my address bar.  I can’t help myself.  I ♥ Etsy.  There are SOOOO many things I want to buy… I feel like Veruca… I want it ALL!

I’ve found that Etsy really does cater to shopaholics like myself.  Anything you could ever imagine… right there at your very finger tips!  It doesn’t help that most sellers (I’ve only dealt with a few) are super nice and soooo willing to help you.  The few I’ve dealt with have been nothing but above and beyond what a seller should be.

Right now my addiction is with Twilight items.  ::sigh::  Yes, Twilight items.  A few of my favorites are below. Sigh. Maybe one day I’ll win the lottery and be able to buy everything at whim. Then again, maybe not.

I don’t get it. I just don’t.

Why can’t some women stand up to their husbands? What is this “rule” that says the husband is always right? Even about things he has no clue about?

Case in point. If your baby — brand new baby — is sick, do you listen to your husband who tells you to let him cry OR do you do what you feel is needed to be done? I’m all for working together, but I would NEVER listen to ANY man (or any ONE) who is not allowing me to do what I need for MY child. Father or no father.

Bleh. I just don’t get it. I wouldn’t say I’m a mean person, or that I don’t listen/consider what my husband says, but I would never bow to him and allow him to be in charge of me, of my life. What the frack?

We have a nice two way street. I don’t keep him from doing things he wants to do and he doesn’t keep me from doing things I want to do. If I don’t agree with something he says and I feel THAT adamant about it, I’ll still do what I want. Of course after yes’ing him to death.

It is disgustingly hot out. We’ve had nice, breezy, bearable weather the past week or so. But today, today is 91 right now. Yuck. And here I thought I was going to save on my electric bill. No such luck.

We got great news yesterday — the husband has not one shred of evidence of any tumors or cancer. So now we just set up the game plan for the lumps that could be anything from lymphnodes to cysts.

The wedding is in a week and 5 days. I’ve got just about everything I need. Borrowing a black bag from one of my sisters and then I’m all set. I still have to shorten the straps a bit — don’t want the girls falling out while at the reception. Would so not be good. Although, I am just planning on sitting at the bar and watching all the fights that are bound to happen. Would it be wrong of me to say that I would be disappointed if everything went smoothly?

Right now I’m in the middle of reading Eclipse for the 4th? 5th? time.  I know, I have a sickness.  But it’s like it’s one big novel and you can’t read the first one without reading the second one and so forth.  But then when you get to the end of the saga, you want more.  So you read them again.  I actually was able to grab the Borders’ exclusive Twilight movie calendar.  Woo Hoo!  Can’t wait to hang it on my wall!  And to continue on with the obsession, I bought the Twilight: The Complete Illustrated Movie Companion as well as The Twilight Saga: The Official Guide (Twilight Saga).  Like I said, I know I have a sickness.

So for the rest of the day, I’ll finish Eclipse, clean out my emails (getting ready for Office 2007 - arriving Tuesday, woo hoo!) and computer — then relax while watching True Blood.
