Back to the Future

So, now that I have Pokemon Black to play with, I also have a bit of work to do with the etsy shop. Woof and I got two hoodies to make into messenger bags: Raphael from TMNT and one with Red Bull on it. Here's a little sneak peek of generally what the description will be:

"This bag was originally a hoodie, and is hand-sewn into a bag. The sewing is very strong and has proven to be able to hold over fifty pounds and can hold just about anything you need to transport. I've had my own hoodie bag for 5 years and have never had to patch it up or re-sew anything, and each day I put about 20-30 pounds worth of stuff in it. Just like a wearable hoodie, this sort of use will stretch it. Also like a real hoodie, it is machine washable (this has turned out to be very useful to me). Due to the way it is sewn though, only the big part of the hoodie can be turned inside out. I've found this bag to be the most comfortable 'messenger bag' I've ever owned, and unlike most messenger bags, it doesn't hurt if it gets heavy. The weight is distributed evenly and comfortably over the soft cotton sleeves. Private message me if you have any other questions about the bag or what it can take. If I don't know the answer, I will test it for you and let you know!"

What I didn't write is that in order to make sure the bags can really stand up to university life, which is probably the most strenuous life the bag will ever have. The TMNT bag has shown that the sewing is good and strong and comfy and everything it should be, and the Red Bull bag will be done in a couple of days. They will go up at 15.00 and 4.00 shipping. I'm so excited to share what I've been enjoying for so many years!!! I should probably pay attention to class now.

Things were taped to my ceiling.

Yeah, that's right; things were taped to my ceiling. A lot of them were.


Today I started the long journey home sometime around 4 PM - the commute shoulda taken 40 minutes to an hour. Thanks to the wonderful City of Brotherly love, I drifted from pocket of traffic to pocket of traffic for close to two and a half hours. Thanks, Philly. Thanks.


Anyway, I made it home. I was greeted by a big black dog, who I call, lovingly, my mutt, and my mommy, who told me about how someone had driven their car through our front yard. Someone never learned how to put a car in reverse, I assume. Went out to dinner, came back and watched a movie with the family. It was pretty nice.


I went upstairs, it's like 11 PM now. My door was closed nearly all the way, which I didn't think anything of, since this is generally a futile effort by one of the parents to keep the mutt out of my room. He thinks my bed is his bed, you see.


I opened the door and flipped on the lights.


Hanging upside-down on my fan were two rubber ducks. A third, along with three different remotes, Darth Vader, a camera, and a poster were in various positions on my ceiling. The walls were lined with pencils, pens, trinkets, a bean-bag lizard, an Arcanine, and a frisbee. My bed was made, but my pillows were on the opposite end of the bed. On my computer desk was a note written by my younger sister, in colored pencil, that read "April Fools! Ha ha ha!"


One thing crossed my mind when I flicked that light switch on. One crystal clear statement.


"Man, someone replaced my lightbulbs! The walls definitely look less purple when there's more than just one lightbulb burning."






In any event, Mew and I have finally gotten our Etsy shop up and running! We're pro like that, yo. Visit it here! Visit, browse, support some starving college students!




Chewin' up your socks,

She bought us Kool-Aid!!!!!

My mom just called and she said she bought Woof and I 3 different flavored sugar-free kool-aids! Yay! That means that, until we get off our lazy butts and buy more water from the store, we can drink from the tap!!! If you're not as excited as I am, then maybe this is the sort of thing that would get you excited...


In other news... Our etsy shop is opening today! Woof and I are really excited to put up what we have! Hopefully it's done by 5:00 PM, so that I won't be thinking about it while I'm at work tonight. Last, but not least, here's a video of an 8th grader singing about partying and riding in a convertible. If you can make it all the way through, you're superhuman.


Love always,

Hello, World.

So, this is our first post. And rather than saying we're awesome, or why you should tune in regularly, I'm going to post a video from youtube of a song that illustrates exactly why I love triops (even though Woof says we can't have any).


I want a triops...... Anyhow, here are the things we're posting tomorrow on etsy. Special sneak preview!!!


























Love Always,
