I'm taking a break from developing carpal tunnel syndrome (I was fixing cabinets) and oh my goodness I need a nap, but frankly that just isn't in the cards for me today!
So far today I "went to mass" and then ran some errands for my mom. I was at Home Depot, and I picked up a ton of cheap and cute succulents to plant a succulent garden with! I've got quite the lowkey green thumb; I've been taking care of an orchid for the past two and a half months, and I am just DYING to expand my reach a bit. Like I adore house plants, but I don't care for very high maintenance ones. My orchid only needs one ice cube a week and medium sunlight to survive, and that's basically the same with my new succulents! When I finish my garden, I'll have to post a picture of it here.
I picked up some bedding at Target for my dorm, and that was exciting! Hopefully everything will all come together soon.
I still have a gazillion things on my to-do list, but lucky for me my sister will be home in about an hour and can help me out with at least half of the things (cleaning our cat's litterbox, doing the dishes while I take care of taking out the trash, and so on.), and I also have to fill out the Home Depot application that my parents want me to do. I highly doubt that I'll get hired there since some degree of expertise/strength is required, which I utterly lack, and I'll also be leaving for school in a month and a half so it's not like I'd be around for long.
Hopefully everything works out for itself, because tomorrow is looking to be another equally (if not more so) busy day than today was!

Guess who found a Webkinz with the tag still on it....
I took a trip down memory lane tonight while cleaning my room when I found a Webkinz (from like, 8 years ago, no less) with the tag still on it! For those who don't know/remember, Webkinz were a fad from when I was in grade school. You would buy a Webkinz stuffed animal, and it had a tag with a code attached that you would use to "adopt" it on Webkinz.com, where you could take care of it in a virtual world where you could play games, learn, etc. It was really a ton of fun!
I decided to create a new account and see what I could do, and ohhhhh was I surprised...
Webkinz.com has gone to the dogs.
Back in my day, everything on Webkinz was free to all, and that was glorious! Now, Webkinz has tiered membership where only those born with a silver spoon in their hands (AKA the kids whose parents are fine with paying a fee to a fad website) are able to access all the features of the site, including most of the jobs, the majority of the games, the only decent clothes, certain furniture pieces and room styles, ALL the "classes" at the "academy" (even those normal folks with free membership are able to purchase academy "uniforms" from the clothing store- what's up with that?!), and even certain foods!
WEBKINZ HAS CREATED A CLASS SYSTEM. IN TRUTH, IT'S AN OLIGARCHY. MY CHILDHOOD HAS BEEN EFFECTIVELY RUINED.
