Tomorrow is Vancouver :). yeah! shopping and sushi! i might get my hair dyed time permitting... i haven't quite decided... probably not. i like my highlights, but i can't decide whether i want to continue doing that or not. maybe redlights? blonde streaks? my only problem with those is that as my hair grows out it looks bad... at least this way it's a little more subtle (though admittedly you can tell)

Irwin's birthday is coming up. He has everything. If we all die today, he has the most toys. Okay so maybe not so much but he definitely kicks my butt toy-wise. I can kick his butt at DDR. So I thought legos? no he just bought a ton of those. iPod accessories? nope not good enough for his stereo system. so now we're down to ceramic knives, knife sharpening, or something??? ideas? buying gifts for the guys in my life oh so complicated! at least girls have a vast array of things that you can get for them. the default is a piece of clothing with a gift receipt attached. it shows you thought about them... you got a gift receipt in case they thought it was hideous! that counts right? are gift certificates too impersonal? this is why when it comes around to my birthday, irwin asks "what do you want?" and i give him a list. he chooses off said list and everyone is happy. no pretending that i like a gift when i don't... i mean how could i not like it i picked it out! amazon wishlists are good for this reason...
