ack.

well. i just booked my room for a little night in the city. i'm a little sad though because i usually do this upgrade thing for the room as i am booking it, and it wouldn't let me upgrade. i don't know what that's going to mean for my room now. :/

and another thing. i had to check my email to get my password for the little hilton points thing. well the hambly newsletter was in there. they are going to raise the prices on the overlays. :/

i wish there was a little more detail about that. i mean... if it goes from $2.79 to like $2.99, that's not really a big deal. but if it goes from $2.79 to like $3.79, then i need to place an order! the prices will go up on the 15th, so i would need to order like right now, since i'm going on this little trip.

i do have lots of hambly already though. so i probably don't really need anymore right now. i have such a hard time actually cutting it to use it. the store i work at has a tiny little bit of hambly, so i have no problem using that stuff because i know i can get more. but the stuff i've ordered online i really covet! i know. it's kind of stupid because the stuff would look better on a page than it does hidden away in the hambly folder. but still. i can't get past my fear of *cutting the hambly.*

i've done 4 pages for the one little word challenges. i did one the other night and three more tonight. so i'm pretty much all caught up, but i have to do the current one. i already have my idea for it, including which photo i want to use. i just need to print the photo. plus i have one more "new" page that i want to do. so once i get those ones done, then i will scan them all and make one post for them. i think it will be more fun that way.

i'm also working on my ribbon page for the fiskateer online crop. i have it all laid out, i just need to work on it a bit more to finalize things. i have a lot of journaling i'm thinking about for this page, but the way i'm setting it up doesn't offer a lot of room for journaling. so yeah. it's going to need a little redesign action and/or some creativity. but i've decided that i need to go to bed now. i'm not the least bit tired, but it's nearly 4am and i have to go to the lab in the morning to do some pcr before we can leave for the city. i just got a shipment of some housekeeping gene primers that i designed, so i need to check them out. it's sort of exciting, but i'm so nervous to see if they work. ha. but that means i have to get up waaaay too early. i'm almost out of my template dna too. ack. :/

anyway. enjoy this friday the 13th. eeek. i told james i almost don't want to go because it means we have to drive over the bay bridge on friday the 13th. i get so scared when i'm driving over the bridge. like i really panic. bad news. ha. but james told me everything will be ok. so he better be right!
