How I did it
How to have a pirate wedding
It took me
1 year
It made me
ecstatic

How I did it: I guess we took about a year to plan everything - but really most of the planning was done in the last few months before the wedding. Of course, every pirate wedding is unique, but here's how we did ours: First, we rented a boat! Once we decided we were going to get married on a boat, we thought it would be necessary to do a pirate theme. Yar! I got an ivory pirate dress on ebay, by looking up "pirate wedding dress". I also got my … Read how I did it…

How to write my wedding vows
It took me
1 day
It made me
exuberant

How I did it: D and I finished our vows at 2AM, the night before the wedding. We sat together, but did not tell each other what we were writing. A couple of our witnesses commented that the vows fit together very well, as if we had each known what the other was going to say. D came up with an interesting way of saying them - Our officiant (my brother-in-law) each asked us a series of questions to which we answered "Yes" for each one, and then the la… Read how I did it…

How to have a not-sucky birthday in 2009
It took me
1 day
It made me
thrilled!

How I did it: I had the best birthday ever! My fiance warned me a couple of weeks in advance that he would have to work on my birthday, which was fine with me. I'm a grown-up - I can handle it! But the truth is, he lied! He had a whole day planned for me as a surprise!First, we had a romantic morning together, and he made me an omelet for breakfast. The he went off to "work". He was actually out getting the oil changed on the car, and buying me flowers… Read how I did it…

Horrible, Awful Twitter 2 days ago

I made a twitter account for my shop, called ElephantTreeArt.

I have never really liked the idea of Twitter, and I thought keeping up to it might just stress me out, but it seems good for exposure.

I learned right away that people don’t like it when you post a lot of links. I can’t help it – I’m just really excited and totally consumed with my store right now, although I haven’t made a dime.

Anyway, I decided that since people don’t like just a bunch of links, I will write bad poetry in 140 characters, and see how that turns out.

Maybe I will think of something interesting to say, too. Maybe I will tweet about packages of scissors. I have no idea what makes a twitter page interesting.

Okay, I know I've been soliciting my stuff a lot lately... 2 days ago

But I’m just really excited about my little store! I am selling magnets now, which seems like a really good idea to me, since most people I know like interesting magnets. :)

Why is it so hard to open a package of scissors? 2 days ago

I was trying to open a new package of scissors today, but whoever designed the packaging must have designed it to keep out wily scissor thieves, hardened criminals, and bears.

I just kept saying to myself, You know what would make this a whole lot easier to open… A friggin’ pair of scissors!!!
