This is Liz

It's a bit hazy but it starts out in a shady motel room...

I've got a theory (it could be bunnies!) This whole "Viva Laughlin" debacle was really just a marketing ploy by CBS to get more people to watch the season premeire of "Amazing Race". Brilliant really.

This weekend was Charlene's baby shower. It was fun seeing everyone and hanging out. We totally crashed Mark's house. He is a friend we all haven't seen in almost 6 years. He moved like, 3 blocks away from Charlene so after the shower we all just showed up. We got their at 5:30 and didn't leave until 1am. Ha, great friends we are! And I realize now as I post this, after giving her a mess of knitted stuff, that I have no pictures of any of them. Nicole posted a couple of Charlene holding the Oilers blanket I made, but that's it! I made a lot and I have no pictures. I also have this weird thing about Charlene keeping the stuff I made. I do not want her to keep all of it. I ended up making 2 pairs of pants, 2 sweaters, 2 blankets, a small hat, and the turtle. I don't want her to keep the stuff I made just because I made it. It is clothing, it should be worn and worn out! The things I made, I made them as much for me as I did for the baby. Making small stuff is fun and they are small enough that I don't get bored making the thing. Yah, so no keeping the stuff until the child is an adult wondering why the hell thier mother kept this crap made for them as a baby.

I also scored a lizard ring just like this one from Wal-mart this week and it was only $6! Score! I wear one ring on the middle finger of my left hand and this one fits nicely on the middle finger of my right hand. The only downside of the new ring is getting used to wearing it. It still feels kind of wrong. I like it, but it will never beat the Mexico lizard ring (stupid ocean, stealing it from me).

And also, randomly, I have decided that it would be cool to be properly analyzed by a professional by being given Rorschach tests and word association. Yah, that would be cool.
