I just stumbled upon this video and OMG it’s so cute. So cute that I will have blogged about this twice by the time you read this post. How do I know? Because I won’t click “publish” here until I have published on my LJ! Bwhahaha…ha.

So yeah, that song is awesome. It’s happiness, and amazing, and I mean, come on, it’s about Mario Kart and love. (Did I abuse the comma? Yes, I do believe so.)

So, I’m so bored. I really should be cleaning, but I’m not. I should be pounding the pavement some more for a job, but I’m not. I feel like the job hunt just isn’t working. I put in application after application, but I still don’t get called in. I truely wonder if they put the signs out for “HELP WANTED” but in reality, they don’t want anyone. They know they can get the people there to do the same stuff without having to pay another body to do it. UGH. I just want a jobbb…

Wow I never though I would say that. Whatevers.

A lot of the pictures on the sidebar are of Aphro and Hera. Yeah. They are our babies. Imagine how bad Micah and I will be when we have real babies. Our how will be papered with the pictures. You will be trying to pee, and then you focus on the door, and see our baby just staring you in the eyes, slightly ashamed of what you are doing.

Fourth of July was yesterday, and it was so much fun. We sat, and we were a bit to close to the fireworks for my ears, but I have bad ears, and everyone else loved where we were. But it hurt my ears and we couldn’t hear the band which made me a bit sad. Boo hoo for me.

I feel bad for Giles. You remember Giles, right? Our fish? No? What do you mean I haven’t blogged about him ever?! I’m such a bad pet mom. Micah and I bought Giles the Beta Fish when we spending our first summer together. We were all like “We should get a pet to love and take care of!” (And by we, I mean me) So we bought him and his little bowl and his little plant and we loved him and stared at him and fed him beautifully. Now we just feed him, and don’t really stare at him as much. I feel bad. What if he thinks we don’t love him as much anymore because we got the cats? It’s not like we let the cats try to eat him or anything. They aren’t even interested in him. Maybe because the cats don’t care about him, THAT’S why he’s sad. I can’t help it if the cats just don’t seem to understand what a fish is, right?

People outside of our apartment are shooting off firecrackers and it’s scaring my cats. I don’t like those people. I’m going to slap them.

So I’m looking through picture of Portus, the Harry Potter convention Micah and I went to last summer, and it’s amazing how good we looked! LOL

I’m so happy that we went, and I hope that we will be able to go to more soon-ish. It’s hard because now we will need someone to kitty-sit, and it’s hard to get that many days off of work, but I really hope we can go to another one.

TrueBlood! God I love it.

LibraryThing?

Micah and I have a LibraryThing now! It let’s you catalog your books. That’s it. But trust me, it’s fun.

And if you still don’t know if you want to sign up, John Green has one! Isn’t that reason enough?

Moving on out!

Well, we aren’t really “moving” anymore. We are pretty much all moved in. We are super duper happy in our apartment. If you go to our flickr you can see our pictures from the camera. We haven’t taken many photos, but there isn’t much more to show. Once we get EVERYTHING in (my two desks, and the bookshelf) then we will take photos of it all again so everyone can see what it looks like before we get it all messy again! hehehe

The Moses Family Manifesto!

We, the Moses family, strive to be a more green and energy efficient family. We do so to not only save money, but to also do our part in helping our beloved Mother Earth.

• We will no longer use paper towels or napkins. They are not only expensive, but are also wasteful. Cloth towels and napkins will grace our kitchen and nothing else. (Except for probably large parties, when we don’t have enough cloth napkins for everyone to keep their greasy fingers off our sofa)
• We will bring canvas, cloth, or homemade bags to the market. If any plastic bags do end up coming into our house, they will get re-purposed into garbage bags or crocheted into more shopping bags.
• We will use smart planning when running errands. We will schedule out what we need to do, and then do it all in one trip. This will not only save gas, it will save time.
• When it comes to light, we will only use energy efficient light bulbs. We will also turn off any lights that we are not using at the moment. For after hours, night-time bathroom excursions,  a portable light source will be used instead of turning on every light from the bedroom to the bathroom.
• We will recycle everything that can be recycled. Either bring them in for the money, or give it to the city. For natural materials, we will compost them for our garden.
• We will grow some of our own vegetables in our own garden. Anything that we don’t grow will be bought locally and without preservatives. (If possible)
• When washing dishes, we will use a sink full of soapy, warm water, instead of it flowing from the faucet. We will only use the dishwasher when we have a full load of dishes, or we are almost out of pots. Which ever comes first.
• We will only do laundry when we have a full load. The one exception will be our sheets. My asthma and allergies don’t agree with dirty sheets.
• We will adjust the thermostat higher or lower depending on the season. To stay warm we will use blankets and jackets. To cool down, fans and cool drinks.
• We will drink more juices and tea and less soda. If we can, we will make the juice at home instead of buying it at the grocery store.

We do this to save money, help the planet, and to give ourselves more time together.

Twitter

iJustine blogged about her tweetstats, I want to do it as well. I like to be able to see the words that I use the most.

This is my “tweet cloud.” I love seeing words like this. Click it to see a larger, easier to read version.

This is Micah’s tweet cloud. It’s fun to read them as if they were sentances. Micah’s has the best ones. “Crappy robot Obama day” “Cleaning matrix says bought wife rules”

Healthy Competition

We all know that I’m a victim of lazy when it comes to minor things like making a bed, or sorting the laundry. But then I found this website that solves all my problems…

It’s called THE WORLD OF CHORECRAFT. It turns everyday chore-ing into a competition! Huzzah! If you want to join Micah’s and my party, click here and sign up! Then you just have to keep your “character” updated with the things you did, and then BAM! You earn experience points! (They are called XP…)

Soooooo…. Join it! Help me do my chores by making me want to squash your points!

It’s called a “MeMe” because they are all about me!

Create the Soundtrack of your life:
1. Open your iTunes library and set it to Shuffle.
2. Press play
3. Write the title of the song playing next to the first question (that song is your “Opening Credits”)
4. Every time you go to a new question hit the next button TWICE
5. Don’t lie and try to pretend you’re cool. Feel embarrassed like us all.

Oh yeah…

I also should let y’all know that I’ve dyed my hair… The photo doesn’t really show it to well, but it’s a nice red.

Sorry Mom.
