Two decades of awesomeness!

Number of textbooks the post office is late delivering: 1
Number of articles due Tuesday: about 5
Number of words typed for said articles: 0
Number of naps so far today: 2
Pieces of cake: 2 (about to be three)

Tomorrow The Office comes out on DVD. I'll probably forget to buy it because I'll be spending most of tomorrow trying to reason with the post office. Gah.
This year I had one of the best birthdays I can remember. I just stayed home, ate cake, and watched movies. I forgot how funny Monty Python is. I've always liked British humor more than American though. I think it's because they make allusions to things and don't feel like they have to dumb everything down.
I think this year I'll come as a Templar Knight for Halloween. I'll take a pillowcase, cut some armholes and a place for my head, then paint on the red cross. It's simple, cheap, and easy to move in.
I've been in a crafty mood lately. I finally finished the black vest I've been working on last night. Then this morning I sewed up four Beatles bags. I still can't believe wal-mart was selling Beatles material.
I was window shopping on Urban Outfitters.com today and I saw these
They're about $12. The weird thing is that I bought a set just like this (only with purple feathers) about four years ago at the powwow they have every year at the community college. It's weird to me that this might be a trend since this was just a little souvenir type thing. But then I saw these

Fascinators. Seriously. I know I would never have an occasion to wear them, but they're cute. Not $24 cute. So I'm going to make papier mache bases, glue on feather and beads, then attach the clip on the back. I'm thinking I'll finally get a chance to make these around Thanksgiving vacation, so they can be Christmas presents.
