Yesterday [livejournal.com profile] browncoat_2x2 hosted another t-shirt shindig at her house. As per the usual much fun was had and now everyone has more awesome tshirts, underwear, bags, jackets and pj's. There was some really creative stuff done and now I'm excited to try even more LOL. I'll spare you all from my long windedness. Any who want to see pictures can see them right here

*Squee* I just got a seat to see Pygmalion with Claire Danes in it when I'm in NYC! This is even more fun because My Fair Lady (which is the musical based on Pygmalion) is coming through TO this year so I'll get to see both in one year, within a couple of months of each other actually I think. I called for the ticket with my dad's calling card since I'm at work... the tickets started selling a lot more quickly then they had been so I thought I should get one ASAP and then spent 15 minutes on hold and then had a long-ish conversation with the gentleman working the box office. Apparently I don't sound Canadian LOL At any rate that'll be a fun charge for Daddy, I must remember to let him know it's going to show up and that I'll pay for it when it does.

I'm so amused. A month ago I wasn't sure if there were even really a lot of shows I wanted to see this trip... now I have plans to see 5 musicals, 1 play (my first play ever in NYC), at least 2 museums, BC/EFA flea market and visit friends while I'm there. Not to mention random shopping excursions. It's going to be so busy but SO much fun!

In other news I finished my designs for Mel's tshirt shindig earlier this week... I was so overdue, she's a saint for letting the last one in! Also I apparently have trouble counting to 4, which was the maximum we were allowed to design... yeah, problems. However I'm really looking forward to the Shindig :)

7 days left (6 1/2 really now) 'til I'm leaving for NYC and I've still got so much to do. I still need to burn myself cds to listen to on the bus, decide what I'm going to wear and pack it, buy granola bars and such for the trip... and lots more that I can't think of right now. At least I have the tickets I needed to buy in advance bought, money exchanged and I have my bus ticket and passport. Necessities are done :)

Another busy weekend has flown by!

On Friday I bought my US money for my vacation. I'm wonderfully broke now but I'll appreciate being able to shop when I'm there :) Then I saw my parents off as they left for England for 2 weeks (lucky them!) and then went home to work on finishing up my tshirt screening designs.

Saturday I sent my ideas off to Mel so she could tell me how crazy I was trying to do the things I've chosen to do. Actually only one of them so far isn't working well so that's not bad... especially considering that I've somehow rotted my brain so much that I managed to screw up counting to 4 and designed 5 shirts. I honestly didn't even realize I'd done it until Tom and Jo pointed out I'd gone over the maximum. Oops. I may end up saving one to do next tshirt shindig lol. We'll see how timing goes.

Our internet also died completely again on Saturday and we've now FINALLY got a technician coming over next Friday (for free at least) to see what can be done. We did manage to get 2 of our computers back online, Jo and I are still out of luck :(

Saturday Tom also came by and brought Muppets DVDs so we could introduce Jo to the Muppets. We watched the episodes with Bernadette Peters and Julie Andrews! Fun!

Sunday I bought tshirts for the screening and found Xfiles figures from the movie, still in their original packaging, at Value Village. I restrained myself and just bought a Mulder and a Scully in their FBI suits I left Artic Gear Mulder and Scully and the alien ones behind. I also got a computer mouse since mine was having trouble tracking and it was getting really not fun trying to make icons and such with a mouse that didn't stay where you wanted it.

Today I have to fix one of my tshirt designs before Mel bans me from her house ;) and I need to start burning CDs for my bus trip which is so soon!!!!
