since i fell not too much has gone on. actually, that isnt true. i made it through another year of linux world. it was great. we went wednesday and i went alone on thursday. i saw a few demos and presentations and learned alot. this was the 3rd year for me. it was weird going thursday without the hubby. i am glad that i went two days though. i now know that i would be able to take the train and get to where i need without too much of a problem. i almost walked the wrong way from the station. luckily there were two very nice guys that pointed me in the right direction. we also went to the linux picnic. it seemed a lot different than previous picnics. turns out someone else has basically taken over things there and that is the reason. but i did have fun and met some really great people. i also learned the correct pronounciation of 'monoke'. :)

lets see, what else. Congrats to the wonderful SV1Medic on the birth of her little girl. *happydances*

ive won more in the last 2 months than in all the time i have been playing/entering contests/sweeps. now if only the 2 items i can not use will sell on Craigslist. *giggle*

well, that is all for now. hope you all are well. take care, lovelies.

i've mentioned that i play instant win games. well, i decided to play one i hadn't been playing all that regularly. there was an alternative entry form so it didn't cost me. you can play 5x a day. so i thought, it's 9am and i have to keep myself occupied until i check jury duty at 11am. on my 2nd play i won the major prize. (i'll be less vague about it in a few more lines). i was in shock. i squealed. luckily no one was around when that happened. i printed the page, saved the page and made a screen shot of the page after i calmed down a bit. then i didn't close the window at all. as a matter of fact i still have it open in another web browser window. *lol* then i tried to get ahold of the hubby to let him know. i left a message in a private chat. he called a little bit after i left the message and i thought he was going to congratulate me. he didn't since he hadnt seen the message. he called to let me know that he got a call back from a company that he was talking to about a job. so i let him know about my win. so today has been pretty good. now the question is...do i think im going to use it. and if not, then what? oh before i forget. i won a Nintendo Wii Console. according to the email i will be getting it 8-10wks after the end of the promotion on july 31st. :)

so i am a happy little penguin *happy dances*

sorry to cut this short but i have to run up to kinkos and fax some more paperwork. take care everyone *hugs* :)

Have you ever wanted to say something and the words escape you? I am having that moment right now. I woke up this morning with the hubby before he went to work. Got up, went downstairs, set up the coffee maker and made some coffee. I walked over to my laptop and fired it up so I could get the info I needed for paypal. Let the coffee make itself and told the hubby that the paypal thing needed to be done. Got that taken care of and came back downstairs. Grabbed my cup of coffee and checked out my vox. That is when I became speechless and blown away. I am at an absolute loss of words to describe things. This is unusual for me because well, I write. I can usually come up with the right words for a situation. This time they escape me. Why am I at a loss for words you ask? Well, it is because of my skirt. The skirt from the lovely Miss Haze. I had messages letting me know about it. One that it was in the process of being painted and then I had another saying it was done.

My skirt by the lovely Miss Haze is absolutely amazing. I just can not believe how wonderful it looks. The progression from start to finish just made my jaw drop even more. There are not words to describe just how excited I am about the skirt. When she let me know that it was done I immediately went over and took a look at the page. I have seen her lovely work before and know just how wonderful an artist and designer she really is. I am just floored by what she did with this skirt. I am so looking forward to putting this on and taking pictures.

This made my whole day. Thank you from the very bottom of my little penguin heart. :)

this weekend was really good. saturday we went to the Art & Wine Festival here in downtown Mountain View. then on sunday we went to the Maker Faire. wish we would have remembered it on saturday. it would have been really cool to run into the lovely Miss Lilia. i did keep running into someone that told me 'cool shirt' twice. i was wearing my purple Vox shirt that I got at the Vox MeetUp. i wish he wouldn't have walked away so quickly both times so i could have asked who he was on vox. i really did like the Art & Wine Fest and the Maker Faire. i'm looking forward to going to both again next year. :) at the art festival i had a 'free evaluation' with a chiropractor. she said that the hip pain i am feeling is because i need an adjustment on my right side. so im going to have to talk to Dr Mouradian to see what can be done about this. since i had told her about my back issues and she said that it is probably due to those. so i have to call the lawyer and see if i can get him to get me an appointment. i just need him to realize there are dates that i can NOT go down to SoCal for the appointment. that's the problem with having a surgeon 400 miles away. (give or take a few miles) the craft part of the Maker faire put me in the mood to do some sewing and crochet but i haven't gotten a new project set up yet. i guess i can make some more crooked pillows. *giggle*

i'm anxious because the wonderful and arty and crafty Miss Haze has me on her conga line for a custom skirt. i have been looking at her art and have narrowed it down to a few of her pieces for the art on the skirt. now i need the hubby to help me read the tape measure so i can send off the measurements. it is going to be so great :) wearable art from a wonderful artist. yay. *happydances*

i hope that you all are doing wonderful. other than my hip pain things are good. the hubby is loving his new gig. lets just hope that the honeymoon period with the job isnt over and he starts to not like it. now i'm going to go and try and clean my house. take care lovelies. *huggles* :)

i had such a wonderful time at the vox meetup at the brickhouse. i felt kind of funny interrupting the dinner of the voxers downstairs but i wasn't sure where to go. they directed me upstairs. i found the wonderful name tags and put mine on. then i milled around and hardly talked. then more people started showing up and i got over my shyness and had some great conversations. i also made some new friends which is also great. i'm looking forward to hearing from them via vox. i added pics that i took and hope you all like them. im not the best photographer. but i did get some nice ones :) i also added the hubby's vox: starfishy to my neighborhood. i'm glad he finally ventured onto vox. the next thing is to get him to help me put up my own banner. heh. well, that is all for now. hope you are all having a great weekend. :) *gives hugs* take care lovelies. here are the piccies:
*edit: there is a copyright thingie on the pics because of not knowing photobuckets policies all that well...just in case you all were wondering*

ok, i just do not get it sometimes. i am married to the man of my dreams and i have lots of friends, some of them male. so friday after the show there was UbuCon at Google. i wanted to go but the hubby had to work. i also knew that a male friend of mine wanted to go as well. apparently the hubby is/was jealous of said friend. i so do not understand it because of one very important thing: I HAVE THE WRONG TOOLS! yes, the hubby is jealous of my male gay friend. yes, said friend is hot to me and is british so he has the accent thing going on and we get along great. but, i am totally and completely in love with the hubby and well just no. (even if he was not gay i would not jeopardize what i  have with the hubby for a simple shag) as a matter of fact he leant me a great book that i finished yesterday and will be returning on saturday. so i ended up not going to UbuCon. not because i didn't want to go, believe me i wanted to go. i didn't go because i didn't want to have problems with the hubby. i also didn't go because i was dead on my feet but still. i did talk to my friend the night before and let him know i wasn't going to go and for him to have a good time at the con. i found out later that he didn't go either because he was too tired. i understand that because he is still on london time and has been since he arrived. so...i don't understand it. why are men like that. i ended up finding out that he was also jealous in his last relationship. when he was with erica he was jealous of her gay friend larry. it is just weird. i would understand it more if it was him being jealous of a straight guy and he was flirting with me or something, but a gay man, i just don't know. anyways. i didn't talk about this on my lj cause he can see it. so umm yeah. anyways, that is all for this little post. hope you are all well :) *gives hugs*
