you won't talk me into it next time / if I'm going away your hearts coming too

I'm addicted. I swear, I'm going to cover everything in a layer of paint and decoupage it to the death.

Here is how my day went so far:

I painted my box a great shade of orange.

And then I took a break and had a very nutritious breakfast. 

I'm kidding. 

Hehe. I had some cereal. AND THEN I had my nutritious breakfast. 

See?

It tasted great. 

This is my box after a coat of paint. 

My mom insisted I put an old newspaper underneath my workspace to avoid getting any paint or glitter on the table. It was part of the Sunday comics.

I'm sure you've already noticed my love for food. I clearly had a chocolate filled day. 

But really, who wouldn't want to stuff themselves with all this goodness?

These things are just so addicting! Plus, they bring back great childhood memories. 

Here's my box all done up! I put dots of glitter to make it sparkle. 

Also, I managed to do everything without ruining my manicure. I think that's the greatest feat of  all. 

I'm also on a trailer watching spree and I'm itching to watch this. 

It looks great.

talk to the sky / talk to the man with the reasons why

The week is ending and instead of finding yourself overjoyed at that prospect you find yourself singing, "Fever, fever, go away, never come back another day."

Terrible isn't it? Not that terrible. There are actual things in life that can cheer you up. Here is a list I put together of the good things that come when a fever is on the nearing horizon.

1. I didn't bother putting down "a good book" because everyone knows that it immediately means Pride & Prejudice. No one can ever have enough of Mr. Darcy. Ever.

2. Music is vital. It creates the whole mood. And considering I'm not so much for head banging with hammers inside my head I go for something waaaaay better. James Morrison and Ray LaMontagne are great examples of what I listen to (whether or not I'm sick).

3. And comfort food. These are actually things I crave for on a daily basis, but considering I only actually get them when I'm sick is why they are up here.

Now of I go to try to hunt down substitutes for comfort food. Thank goodness I actually have Mr. Darcy in paperback other wise I'd die. No joke.
