Irky! It's always a great surprise to see someone commenting on our thread (especially when there haven't been any updates!) but it's an even better surprise to see when you comment! To all of the entries!
I did a quick recap of your first TR bc I couldn't remember what your DBF did since you said he couldn't decipher your graffiti drawings ... could it be because he's too busy engineering software? And another random thing, I think it's funny how he likes the movies just like I do! I thought I was the only 20something year old browsing Target for deals on Disney DVDs! I would love to see your DVD collection though, since I only started not too long ago so I have a pretty small collection. My mom actually owes me a copy of the Lion King because she lost it. ... I know, I know.
I love your flats entries! It's so hard not to comment on all of it!
Hahaha...no, I think he just doesn't know what they are because 1. my drawing talent consists of three legged stick men (as my students often tease me about) and 2. I never really got the hang of drawing with the mouse!
You're definitely not the only 20something buying Disney DVD's! I would b e so bummed about The Lion King! Didn't it go back into the vault?
A random thing that I noticed when looking at the posts of WoD ... the eyes of the elevator are looking at the viewer in the 3rd floor picture :
But then in the picture with me, it's also looking at the viewer ...
Am I going crazy here or do other people see it?! Extra creepy elevator!
That's definitely creepy! Do the eyes actually move or does it just look that way in pictures?
Hehe, after reading this, both Weird and I joined theknot.com separately! I used to look at all the knottie bios all the time, but I thought it was a little weird to join because I wasn't actually with anyone at the moment! I remember I used to always say, "I want to get married" because the prospect of the wedding and reception just seemed like so much fun! Now knowing all the work and stress that goes into it and also now that I've got my Weird, I don't necessarily want to get married. Now I want to be married!
I agree. I used to do the same thing, but now it seems like way too much work and I don't want to devote that much time to it anymore.
Then we looked at engagement rings, and he pretty much knows the kind of ring I want (something very simple). The other day, he made a ring out of a twistie tie and on the webcam, it looks pretty real! Ahhh, I'm getting all excited
Recently, Weird and I were also looking at Disney merchandise, you know, for the house we don't yet have. Here are just a few of the things that caught our eye:
For our babies, Powell and Vachel. Haha, when Weird first came to my church, a bunch of the guys thought his name was really Powell! And then a few months ago, my mom told me that Vachel was an actual boy's name! So our children will be Powell (girl) and Vachel (boy).
Um, we're kidding about the names, of course!
These dishes came in a set of four so I was like, "Who are we going to invite over?"
Then I saw these mugs and wondered again, who's going to sit and have a drink with us? This was the caption for that picture (in our private journal): Again, who will we invite? Maybe Irky and her DBF, probably her DH by then!
Hehe
I love that baby furniture! If I ever have one, I am definitely decorating with Disney stuff! Think how cute it would be to have Jack and the flats all around with the dishes and cups!
Haha, I'm not sure! I feel like we just randomly found it, but Weird said he kind of had an idea it was somewhere in that area.
I looked it up and there is one in Philly. I never knew there was one in NYC, but I will be on the lookout for it if I make it there!

Because of budget cuts, we're down to only 4 preps a week. Fortunately and unfortunately, I have 2 of the 4 are Monday! I mean, it's great on Monday, but it stinks on Tuesday and Wednesday when I don't have any break other than lunch! This Wednesday was pretty tough because I didn't even have lunch since we had curriculum conferences on MWF during our lunch periods!
That stinks!
Cute! They look excited!
This is a picture of the room I shared with my brother. It's funny because we're spoiled from our Florida place because we have full size beds and here we only had twins! But neither of us had a problem with it because that's what we have at home.
It looks nice! Where in Virginia were you?
Our dinner experience was interesting. We got take out from Olive Garden. That part isn't so interesting but bringing it back was! We drove back home and parked and I took the bag of food out of the trunk. Just 5 steps away from the trunk, the contents of the bag FELL OUT. The bottom of the OG bag was just nonexistent and everything fell out! That was 4 main courses and 4 soups!
I can't believe that! I'll be careful how I carry take out bags from now on!
For a while afterwards, my foot was still warm from the burn, but it was okay.
I'm glad you were ok! That could have been bad.
We had to run a few errands to get food and whatnot. Our first stop was Target. I know it's not really a special Virginia place to go since there are Target stores everywhere, but we wanted to check out the food prices. What I love about Target stores is the Dollar Spot! Why? Because I can buy Disney Princess ice paks for 25 cents each!
I planned on using them in my lunchbox to work because it'll be an extra bit of magic in the day. And let me tell you, these little things make me smile in the day! Bright colors can really affect my mood in a positive way so inside my bright pink colored lunchbox has my bright pink Disney princess ice paks!
Yay for Disneyfied lunches! Those are cute.

We went to a few more of the stores there. One of the stores was Heaven & Earth, a Christian bookstore. I wasn't really interested in the place except for the little Veggietales pirate playset for the new movie coming out. Weird and Ninja had so much fun pretending they were the pirates who don't do anything!
That playset is so cute, especially for the flats! But, I hate the VeggieTales ever since I worked at Chuck E Cheese during high school and the Veggie Tales songs were on the tapes that looped all day! I got so tired of hearing them!
The Disney section for scrapbooking!
Weird and Ninja wanted to buy this one, but they didn't know what they would do with it afterwards so instead they asked for a picture.
Some Disney paper:
Can you tell I had a lot of fun looking in this section?
That store looks pretty awesome, especially all the Disney stuff!
