The Wiz Kid

Today me and Amanda made up a poem about a real life occurence we encountered.
There once was a little boy,
Who knew he could be so coy?
He ran around,
An expensive toy he found.
And instead of play with it,
he peed on it instead....
Poetry.

Martha Stewart Would Be Proud

The other night, I made cookies. Magic!
I actually don't bake but every now and then, I find it relaxing.
So after getting on the internet, which I've come to find is a great source from my sister Kimi, I found the only recipe I could use with all the ingredients we had and that was:
Sugar Cookies

Bon Appetite!


My attempt at making Mickey heads in case you were wondering.

Ta-da!

A giant heart, a "rhombus"/turtle hiding in it's shell, M.J., and the mushroom from Mario games.

Proof that I baked, there is flour upon my cheek!
You have to look really hard...

Pure Genius

So, my roommate, Janell, she's awesome.
She's introduced me to this website called 6dollarshirts.com.
It's exactly what you'd think.
They have awesome tees, and these were some of the tops.
I've been laughing for hours and feel like I need one now.
Look over these and put your vote in.
Some you may not get, but I still love them.
Viola'!

Really?! Really....

Time to set the scene:

I'm at work, it's nighttime, and i'm waiting to start closing up the store.

A couple comes into view.

Both are holding up one little ol gem stone each.

(We have a boat filled with cool looking gems to purchase.)

Me- Hey there folks, how can I help ya'll tonight? (Very High-Spirited)
The Lady- We would like to buy these rocks. JUST these rocks.
Me- Okay. Sounds great, except you would have to buy them for 5.29 so you should just fill up the bag so you can get more gems.
The Guy- So we can't just buy the rocks?
Me- You can, but you would have to pay the full price.
The Lady- Right but you see, here's the thing, as soon as we came into your store, we felt this mass energy eminating from the gems. We found these specific gems to be the source of this positive energy.
*I slightly chuckle along with husband*
The Lady- This is no laughing matter ma'am, this isn't a joke.
Me- I understand that, but I'm just saying how it works is you can only buy the bag. So you two could just put your two gems in one bag, and just grab some more gems. That way you can get more for your buck.
The Lady- But these are the only two gems that we feel the energy from. I strongly feel that if we were to have these rocks in our lives, it would greatly change them for the better. So how about we just give you like a quarter for each rock and we can be on our way.
Me- I'm sorry but I would still have to charge you full price. We can't make any exceptions.
The Lady- *Going Balistic Now* Well these rocks fall out of the boat all of the time and I'm sure kids just take them anyways.
Me- That's considered stealing like anything else in our store.
The Lady- So next time I should just steal them is that what you are saying?
Me- Not at all, I'm telling you to go by the rules and just purchase it like everyone else.
The Lady- So I just wasted my time coming here and telling you the truth and offering to pay for them when I could've just taken them. *Storms off to the boat*
Me- I appreciate your honesty, but you have to pay like everyone else.

I go to help other guests and can overhear them a little bit.

The Guy- Let's just go fill up a bag.
The Lady- No, that's ridiculous. I'm just going to do what I should've done.

Minutes later I see them leave, and don't have a bag to buy. Needless to say, I called security gave them the description of the hippy couple. I found out as we were closing that they caught them and they had stolen the rocks, two pairs of underwear from one of the kids packs of 8, and a dream catcher. Really people?! Really....

Can't Argue With That

So one of my friends at work, Eddie, was trying to figure something out one day.
For weeks he had been telling me that I reminded him of someone.
The other night, he got it.
He had thought of this little gem, Peppermint Patty.

Needless to say, I was dumbfounded. Really?! He quite honestly nailed it after much thought.

What do ya'll think?
