So I missed the gay marriage symposium at the school today, the one that the galla group was not a part of...but I did stop by Arlington Gift & Garden and buy a string of eyeball lanterns, dark purple decorative lights, and a ladybug colored broom. Close enough, says I.

The ladybug decision was tough on me. They had 1/2 priced matching dust mops, but when would I ever use that? Had they the matching mop it would have been a no-brainer. But the real problem was the zebra-striped broom. It matches my lava lamp, but...ladybug! Zebra. Ladybug! Zebra. Sigh.

Trashy friends - they have leopard print, of course. Oh, and skull candle holders, spooky candy dishes, and I think you could even haggle away the last eyeball nightlight.

I was unable to wiggle out of Texas. Monday I'm flying down, missing school for the first time in ages, but at least I won't be at work. I have to fly into Houston, then drive to College Station (83 miles). Sunny, is traffic so bad that a quick dinner would be insane? I have this insane rush at the end of Tuesday, where I am scheduled to wrap up around 4pm, then fly out at 6:50 or so. This will be one hell of a dash.

hahahaha. hahahahaha. hahahaha. you're going to drive 83 miles and still try to refuel and get rid of your rental car, make it to the airport, get through security, and be there in time to board at 6:20?

you're so funny! I'd lay odds you won't even make it to houston by 6.

and this from someone who drives all speedy. Oops...rethinking the plan.
