verbicideHappy New Year, everyone!
May 2006 fill your lives with happiness and health and prosperity and laughter and love and joy and chocolate (except for you freaks who don't like it) and pretty much everything your cute little pumping hearts desire.
Also, I did the Face Recognition thingie and wow, not so much with the accuracy. The crack-laced results for my face matched the following celebrities:
Sharon Stone - 67%
Audrey Hepburn - 63%
Jane Goodall - 61%
Aung San Suu Kyi - 59%
Jimmy Page - 57%
Kate Winslet - 57%
Josephine Baker - 56%
Saif Ali Khan - 56%
Meryl Streep - 56%
Ursula Andress - 55%
I think it just gave me everyone with big eyes. I used the photo in this icon. I wish I looked 50%-like Ursula Andress.
Also, more shopping today and there'll be even more tomorrow. Today I went to Home Depot and bought silver outlet plates. They're very pretty. Got them for everything except the two cable outlets and the three-panel plates (which they didn't have). I think Restoration Hardware had some (at 6x the price), so I may go pick them up tomorrow when I go out to buy the couches and updated heating vent plates. I also finally bought some curtains for the living room. Melissa gave me a very pretty brushed silver curtain rod that should fit and I've bought cream colored silk panels and silver tabs/rings. Money seems to be exploding out of me. And I mean, after a year of hard-earned savings, it's okay, but still a little freaky. Also, I'm buying the couches on a Bon card tomorrow and hope to pay it off in a few big chunks and the other furniture isn't coming until March, so I have more time to save up for it. It's scary and exciting and there's so much I want to do. I also found closet doors I want at Home Depot. I think I'll wait for my dad to be here to do that, he's pretty handy and we'll be able to figure it out together.
I need to run off to Jeff's tonight for some kitty-lovin' and then I'm determined, determined to completely 100% unpack the rest of the kitchen and bedroom. Tomorrow can thus be devoted entirely to the office.
