For fun I just added a “Buy Now” PayPal button(see below) on the ‘my jewelry‘ page! If you’re interested in any of the jewelry, just choose the product (earrings, necklace, or other) and specify which one you want (either describe the product or tell me where it is on the page), then click “Pay Now” and you are on your way!

If you have any issues please comment on the page (I will receive and email about it)… happy shopping!

An Amazon store in my personal website? No way! What will they think of next?!

Well people, your dreams have finally come true. Amazon will now let you customize a store to fit on your website.

So, how it works, as I understand it, is that I have this store under a page on my website (labeled ‘my store’) which I’ve filled with all sorts of goodies of suggested merchandise which you can browse through by the categories I’ve created, if you find something you like, or want to look for something different, you can click to buy or browse more on the Amazon.co.uk website… now as long as you keep it so that you’re still linked from my site, then I will receive an ity-bity tiny commission from your purchase. Isn’t that snazzy?!

Beware, however, because (as far as I know) I think it only works if you order from the Amazon.co.uk site… which means that payment will be in British Pounds and shipping will be to the UK (unless you find international shippers). You’re of course very welcome to attempt to prove me wrong on this one!

Well, happy shopping! And remember, Christmas is only 7 days away!!!

• the boiling lava-water that comes out of the tap a couple of seconds after turning it on so that you burn your hand and involuntarily shout any random swear word that comes to mind causing the neighbors (and yourself) to wonder if you have tourette’s syndrom.
• any and every noise made by the upstairs and next-door neighbours, particularly irritating laughter, shouting, or strange music played at deafening decibels.
• random vomit-inducing smell from wall shared with next-door neighbours, which either hasn’t been noticed or hasn’t been properly diagnosed by neighbours themselves
• cartoons, especially computer graphics and anime
• playing video games or strange people who are addicted to video games and feel the need to talk about playing anytime they are not actually playing
• comments or talk about my hair being in any way, shape or form blond, because it definitely is not
• layering clothes
• cold
• umbrellas
• annoying websites that have advertisements right on top of the article of interest that you just searched for, making you have to first look confused at the adverts, then realize you have  to scroll down the page to read the information you had searched for
• annoying websites with scary colours, moving background images or too much content for a normal human being to possibly take in at one time
• really annoying websites that combine both of the above irritations
• that weird smell that clothes get when they haven’t been dried properly
• forgetting to put laundry detergent in the wash… and realizing it either half-way through the cycle, or at the very end
• being burned by fat or oil that feels the need to free itself from the pan in tiny sprays
• getting a slight headache after having half a glass of wine (lightweight)
• the awful taste anything has after you’ve brushed your teeth
• hair that’s not attached to a human body anymore
• the explosion that my skin experiences once a month, and the accompanying irrational emotional response to anything and everything
• the sad misinterpretation of coffee in England (freeze-dried… I mean, really?)
• people worrying and getting stressed-out about things they can’t change or fix
• cheesy shows about kids or animals, especially if it’s attempting to have an endearing personification of an animal that is inevitably in danger of some kind, or when children have to ‘step in and save the day’
• any kind of miss communication or misunderstanding, in real life, but especially as featured in TV shows or movies, meant to be funny or tragically romantic
• robots

For those of you who may remember a little something called MadLibs, I found a similar online thing at  http://www.eduplace.com/tales. Of course you could always go to the official MadLibs website, but it seems like you can just buy the books there… or try madlibs.org. It looks like the Wacky Web Tales has a lot more to choose from though! So go wild with all your wacky-ness and be sure to try one with some naughty words, cause, let’s face it, you know you want to and it makes it a whole lot funnier…

(disclaimer – “naughty words” can take on whatever meaning you wish)
