Today's Obscure Holiday 11/19/13

It's Have a Bad Day Day!
Believe it or not, Have a Bad Day Day was created to encourage people to wish others to have a bad day. The intent is to have sales people stop saying to their customers "have a good day", and replace it with "have a bad day". Yeah, I don't understand it either...

The flower of the day is the Ipomea

Summery of The Snow Queen

This is a summery of Hans Christian Anderson's The Snow Queen that my brother wrote that I thought was pretty funny :)

Once upon a time, there was a Snow Queen who lived in a snow castle and sat on a broken lake all day contemplating useless things not worth writing about before she left to go out and make the whole world cold, leaving behind a boy who played with some ice all day to get new skates until a girl with a dumb name came and sang an irrelevant song and a tiny piece of glass that had been affecting his brain came out of his eye and they all went home and it was summer and they were grown up and they lived happily ever after.

THE END

A Story

This is a story that one my friends posted on her blog that I really like:
 A professor at UCLA Medical School posed this problem to his class:

  "Here is the family's history: the father has syphilis. The mother has TB and is pregnant. They already have four children. The first is blind, the second is dead, the third is deaf, and the fourth has TB. The parents are willing to have an abortion if you decide they should."

    The students considered the problem and decided on abortion.

   "Congratulations," he said, "you have just murdered Beethoven."

Operation: Glamorize Ugly Boots

So I have some super ugly shoes because my feet are so big I have to get men's shoes so.... I ACCESORIZE!!!!
BeforeAfter


Steps
1. I wrapped the shoelaces in rainbow duct tape (Sorry it's so hard to see!)

2. I wrapped the soles in rainbow, too

3. I wrapped the middle part of the boot in the blue cheeah print duct tape. Yes, the far boot toe is not covered in this picture because I ran out of tape but I got some more so they are now completed :)
        1. I wrapped it vertically
        2. I put one horonzontal strip on the bottom 
        3. Voila!

4. I wrapped the top part in the rainbow duct tape and....

Yep, you guessed it...VOILA!!!!!!!!

Thoughts...

I just realized that in my description thingy at the top it says "I hope you thoroughly enjoy reading my random  comments" and there are two things wrong with that; 1. My "comments" aren't very random and 2. They aren't comments, they're posts...oh well, I'm to lazy to change it :P
