More Bar-Mitzvah Gifts


Wow. And I thought that the gifts were done. Today, my neighbor Kathryn got me three awesome gifts. She got me this really cool bendy lamp, an awesome and really soft chair, and a book that I already had. The bendy lamp was silver and you could bend the little stems at the top. There are five stems, each with a light and a really cool light cover. I need to get the right light bulbs before I can use it though. The chair is kinda like a fold up chair, only one where you need to use a duffel bag to carry. Instead of the kind of cover a fold up chair has, it has a circular blue cover that is corduroy and very, very soft. I'm sitting in it right now!!! The book I got was a copy of "The Alchemyst" by Michael Scott. I'm probably the only person who would choose not to take it back and get a different one because its paper back and I only have hardback. That's me, the bibliophile and book collector.

Other than those gifts I got from Kathryn today, I also got $100 from my Aunt Holly and Uncle Mike!

Thank you, Holly, Mike, and Kathryn!!!

I am so jealous. Those chairs are amazing, and I wouldn't say no to a hundred dollars either.

As for blog layouts: You can find a lot of sites ont he internet that have html code for layouts for free. On most of these, you'll lose all your widgets, but if you want a cool layout you could consider that sacrifice. My blog layout is from The Cutest Blog on the Block--mostly girly paterns, but you could poke around there. It adds in a background without changing widgets or anything.

Congratulations. The chair looks way comfy. But can you write in it? That's what I need to know.

I really wanted one that I saw when I was getting Brian's at the store. IT WAS LIME GREEN!
