| Sorry, all my subscribers (the few that there are). I'm cutting you off. Personally, I don't think I need to be delivered to your inbox every day. That's just strange.
And besides, no one needs to see my site anyway. Have fun updating your own site.

| I feel pretty bad today. The family celebrated my birthday today, even though it's really on Tuesday. So there was a nice dinner and Daryl came home from MSU and my Aunt Lynn came from MSU too (med school).
And everyone talked about Daryl. She's a freshman this year, so everyone wanted to know how she was doing. It was my birthday.
But then I feel horrid for even thinking such a thing about my sister. It makes me feel even worse that I did when I didn't feel like I was anything special.
A good thing that happened today was that I designed and made (mostly) an LLBean-esque tote bag. It's a tannish color, not canvas, but a little lighter weight, with black handles. I ran out of black thread though, when I was attaching the handles (Seriously, how can we not have anymore black thread), so I can't finish it yet. The other thing about it is I am going to attache buttons and ribbon (in a tasteful manner, promise!) to make it less LLBean-ish.
So I'm feeling sorry and angry at myself whilst trying to write a paper..

| it's almost my birthday! It's on Tuesday, but since that is in the middle of the week, we are going to celebrate it this weekend. Daryl is coming home for dinner and stuff, and at the library we have this thing where who ever has the birthday before yours brings in the treat for your birthday. We believe in eating here at work. Keenan said he was bringing in ice cream cake on Saturday. That should be fun! Sorry, this was a filler post while I wait to start work... | | |
| So last weekend I went to the Wheatland Folk Festival! It was so much fun!
There were some really great groups, including Grada, a (real) Irish band. They were a lot of fun to listen to!
My absolute favorite band that was there were The Duhks. They are Canadian. Enough said, but I'll say more anyway. Not many people can pull off having a banjo in a band. Guass what? The Duhks are definitely cool enough. Someone, during the performance, had one of those novelty umbrellas that looked like a duck, and they danced around in the front. Absolutely hilarious!
They only thing that I didn't like was the weather. On Saturday is was really really cold and a little rainy. When you are staying up until 2 in the morning, cold is not good.
Also on Saturday (or, I suppose, Sunday morning), there was this hilarious MC. When the Duhks ended, and everyone was packing up to go back to the campsites, he played an old record with this hilarious song.
Chorus:
Roll me over,
In the clover.
Roll me over,
Lay me down,
And do me again.
AND it has the best "get stuck in your head" tune! An absolutely perfect song.

| I am officially the Queen of Wrong Rack shopping. You know, you pick something up off the sale rack, only to find out that it really wasn't on sale. Happens to me all the time.
I was looking for a dress, because my friend Susan told me the same dress that I looked at in Pontiac was at Younkers, only in black. I see it, hurrah, try it on, love the color, blah blah blah.
Its 150 bucks. Hmm.. I think, I really can't justify that, seeing as how this is definitely only 5-7hours of my life. Then I realize it was on the 80% off rack. Yeah, think how this story ends. It wasn't actually on that rack. Shit. I still lust after that dress. I want it. I'm thinking of paying for half and then asking my parents to give it to me as a birthday gift.
