stuff i want for my birthday

here's a list of stuff i want for my birthday...coming up in just over a week.

(the first time i posted this something went wrong and it didn't save. %^*#!)

* duh
* anything here (specifically on the first page, top right column)
* this, but just the body would be ok
* delish. lots of it.
* this GRE stuff finished already.

i wrote more stuff, but i don't remember it. something about a vase i'm looking for for some new slides. something about crying at disney world.

i haven't picked up my knitting needles in over a month. GRE.

curse you, GRE!

also, some pics.
here i am with tamara at jo's wedding last weekend in ny. i was in richmond, va at the time for work, so i flew up for the night and back in the morning. this is the only picture i took in which i actually look like myself.

here are jo and erik


also, i made this jewelry box with crackle paint a few years ago. here is pic of the box, and detail of the crackle effect. it's pretty cool. i smudged it before it was fully dry. i also could have taken the hardware off before painting it, but i just thought of it now. hm.
