woooooow am i tired xD;;

after work tonight i babysat my nieces for 3 or 4 hours. i had a great time-- i love my girls ^^ emilia (who i call "Small" XD) and kairi (who i call either "baby" or "Kairi") are really fun kids. emilia is extremely mellow. she's also extremely ticklish :3 she gets all scrunched up and wiggly if you play with her feet lol and then there's kairi... who is the weirdest, silliest kid XD of course, she's 3! almost 4! of course she's weird! the games she thinks up are hilarious lol

but i am exhausted D: and still have to work tomorrow xD;;

SPEAKING OF WORK!!!

so i never got to talk about the crazy thing that happened a week or so ago!

so i'm at work and i hear the bell ring, so i go out to the counter to help the customer. i get out there, and this woman says she'd like to make a collage for a family she knows as a surprise and starts slapping down letters and photos and newspaper clippings--- about this big accident that killed my 8th grade biology teacher, Mr. Baldwin D:

now, i'd heard he'd died and was very sorry for it, because he was one of the best teachers i've ever had--- but to have these articles just handed to me like that--- wow! it sorta took my breath away and all i could say was, "oh my goodness! no way! mr. baldwin!" so i got to talk to this woman about him and about all these cool things he'd done... and i put a note on her paperwork requesting that the other framers leave the project alone xD;; it's MINE. MINE.

what's even better is that the woman just wanted me to make something special. she was in a hurry, so she left the layout and colors to me for deciding-- so the project has become extra special for me. i can't wait until i actually have time to work on it. wow.

aaaaand....

i know there were other things i was planning on putting here D:

uhhh.....

ummm......

ah, well xD;; photo meme-commentors! i am working on it! it may just take me a little while to get all the pictures xD;; and i also need to take some pictures of some various other treasures i've been picking up here n' there. :3

also----- HAVE ANY OF YOU LISTENED TO THIS SONG????? Many by Okuda Tamio????? how many of you even LISTEN to Tamio???? because this song is supremely amazing D: it pretty much embodies all of his musical talent and feeling. it's such a mellow, even rock n' roll song, and really flows well. not to mention his vocals be perfect, as usual-- i love his voice, and i love the sound he produces when he picks up a guitar. hands down, he's probably my favorite musician (outside of Kishidan, of course! ^_~) but ya. i've uploaded it. because it is THAT wonderful.

and THIS is probably my current favorite icon. thanks again, celia! :D
