Relax and Breathe!

♥ Hi there, Mr. Blog! ♥
Once again, another not really significant entry for your entertainment. Today should be a nice and quiet day while The Captain goes and has a "boy day" without my vagoo ruining all the manly fun to be had. I do not mind at all as I think I will spend the quiet time listening to some music and getting caught up with my Poupee Girl. Lol, therapeutic photo taking of my material possessions. And if the boys take a decent nap I might try to paint my nails again. Last time I did some cute cupcakes and fruit wedges for the design just to have Binkers smear them to crap. *sniff sniff* Maybe I will do my toes as well? 

OOOoooOOOoooOOOooo! Coffee is done percolating! I leave you with this video since it has been stuck in my head for a week or more now. People have been hearing me sing it around places and are like, "Eh....what language is that?" Lol. Dork moment.
This, and Boten Anna have been all over the house in various forms of audio. The Captain has even quit resisting it and just nods his head along. I need some new songs for my techno-y dance fix.

Daily Life of Mundane Things

Good evening, ♥ Dear Blog ♥. It has been a busy but uninteresting day. I cleaned, and cleaned, and cleaned, and then cleaned some more. I scrubbed the carpet in the apartment since the children seem to leave gross, sticky streaks across the place everywhere. I think I have solved this problem with vinegar and dish detergent, "WAHOO!!!" Google. Breakfast was a home make omlette and hash brown combo for the family, while lunch was curry with paratha bread. I skipped out on the breakfast since eggs hate my guts, literally. I have a terrible intolerance to them unless they are incorporated in certain manners. Just plain old scrambled or fried leaves me bending over in pain. But if I do some in fried rice or bake something with eggs into it I have no problems. The strange thing about this is the fact that I only started this in the past few years. I used to ♥LOVE♥ egg sandwiches on toast with a passion. Those years are apparently long gone now. *heartbreak!*

My house looks AHHHHMAAAAAHHHHZZZIIIINNGGG~! With the exception of my bedroom, heh heh heh. But nobody sees that, right? And the bathtub. The bathtub. THE BATHTUB!!! *shakes my internet fist* It has been broken for far too long. I do not know what to do about this, sigh. I have reported to maintenance and they have not come yet. I suppose another call will be in order in the morning... why doesn't spellcheck know how to spell maintenance? 

I have been playing around on Twitter as of late. I do not follow many, so I think I seem sort of spammy, but I assume if I get on someones nerves they will just block me as that is what I would do. So SPAM ON I SHALL! Want to follow me? No? DOOO ETTTT! It will make me feel special and I will get to spam you also! 

It is pretty much a new month and I have lost 14 lbs more as of the end of July! Which totally amazes me since I have been cheating here and there. I am sorry, but the China Buffet is my mouth's lover. ;_; And I have really been wanting Greek food, but the restaurant down the street has been closed for a few weeks and will not open for ANOTHER WEEK. *DIES* Seriously, are you at all surprised by this behaviour? I am a fat lady learning to live without junk, these kinds of rants are bound to occur. Frankly, I am quite impressed I have lasted this long without whining about food. And flavours are changing for the good. Pop is too sweet. Things are too salty out of a package. I have started to make more fresh stuff rather than buy prepackaging. I even baked the paratha for lunch from scratch! Go me! Even though I am supposed to be avoiding grains for my own good. SHHH! Don't tell my body that, it might start a mutiny. Then they will probably throw the cute, thin lady deep down inside of me overboard. Then I am SCREWED. So hush hush, plz. Thanks. ♥

As you can tell, I am drinking alot of coffee this fine evening. And I think I shall put all this energy to good use and go craft up some cute shit, yo. Or procrastinate with Harvest Moon. I love those games. NO! I will create and further my creative career dreams by doing so! 
Goodnight, my dear, sweet blog.☆彡

Package in the Mail ♪ ♫ ♩ ♬

It arrived! My awesomely cool lunch box! Totoro! I was in search of something with Howl"s Moving Castle, but there are none to find. *sniff sniff* So I went with Totoro! This actually came yesterday but I had friends over for dinner and we spent the evening having a good old time watching movies and laughing at internet things. I took a MILLION PICTURES, no joke. But I will try to spare you of a mass spammage, my lovely blog. The design features Totoro and Sho Totoro.
It's about the size of a medium makeup bag. I really like the pattern print.Closeup:
It comes with two smaller plastic compartments, a liquids thermos container and a fork in it's own cute cover.
My kitchen table is messy, sorry. The plants have to be up and hid on the table since the ants and children are both trying to destroy them! ;_; Good thing is that the ant poison I put out on the porch is working. One cactus is dead though! *flails!* I mourn it.
The thermos tin, below.
Ignore also my terrible nail polish. I went with a fruit theme today but they got smudged because of my impatience.
ANNNNND the fork, lol.

I cannot wait to use this thing! I watch a few Bento blogs and the idea of cute foods totally rocks my socks. I have been wanting to pack for own lunches for work as it helps me avoid take out and the temptations of all the carbs that fast food and convenience stores offer. :S This makes it a bit more cute to pack them, ha ha ha.

As for the overall experience. It was packed neatly and only a small dent in the corner of the outer packaging was apparent. This is not from the JList people but the wear and tear of travel. The inner package was great and clean and wrapped in bubble wrap to protect. The product is everything I expected it to be! I love it. Plus, Jlist offers a video on Youtube to show customers the product in depth so I knew exactly what I was buying. The containers really do have great sealing so I feel the pretty bag is safe from the food I'll be toting around. The shipping was timely and rather quick! (This has to do with The Captain paying for airmail though, he he. ♥) The price is a bit high, but I have been staring at this box for about two weeks and my want for it never dwindled. So obviously it was low enough for me to consider.
Design: ★★★★★
Quality: ★★★★★
Packaging: ★★★★★
Price: ★★★★
JList's Customer Service: ★★★★★
I have never used J-List before but I think I will be checking more of their items out. The entire time they keep you up-to-date with what your package is doing and where it is via email. I am completely pleased with the entire transaction! Onto and forward into a world of sausage squiddies and Hello Kitty onigri! 

Oh, and as a little extra thing. I got these glasses in my package advertising J-List.
かわいいですね. Lol. And thanks my to my sweet Captain for the wonderful gift. ♥♥♥

Shopping and More Shopping~♥

I love shopping. Seriously. I will spend free time sometimes filling up Wishlists on some of my favourite sites! I do not buy all of it, as I would truly be broke as hell, but I find joy in internet "window shopping". I know, I sound strange. But, Dear Blog, do you know what I love more than my Wishlist hobby? GOING TO THE MALL. It's like the wishlist thing except I can TRY IT ALL ON! Even though I wish and want for all these things I still have some rational thoughts, ha ha. I carefully weigh the options of what I want vrs. how much money to spend vrs. how much I already have. Today I got a small pile of odds and ends including; panties, hair extensions, make up, perfume, and THESE SUPER CUTE EARRINGS. Lookit! $3 at Hot Topic.
Lol at my eyeball jumping into the photo. Makes me think of Scott Pilgrim and all the pixelated art I have been looking at on dA. I might get out my jewelry pliers and adjust the chair though. They touch my shoulders. I bought Bombshell from Victoria's Secret for the perfume. Mmmm, smalls so good. My coworker wears it and I fell in love with the smell! So a totally unproductive day, Mr. Blog. Goodnight! 

Oh, P.S! I started up my twitter again! I do not have anything epic going on but I like it! Check me out!

Totorooooo~ ♪ ♫ ♩ ♬

Waiting on this to find it's way to me through the mail. Surprise from The Captain! He get's me. ♥
