Oh man i LIKE big colorful fluffy pillows. I love textures and well as long as it isnt a pastel floral i am pretty good with pillowness.   purses? bags? What style/colors? Okay here is a confession. Ia m a woman who dosn't carry a purse, I like them but the ones i want cost to much money and the ones i can afford i dont want. What i want is a BIG leather purse that is butter soft and To big for me to forget.   Decorative scarves for hair and/or creative accessorizing? What colors? Okay I LOVE LOVE LVOE hair sticks, problem is they ahve to be bright and sturdy enough to hold up THICK heavy hair. I snap little ones or they jsut arnt enough to hold it up. I need at least 7 inc of usable stick. I LOVE LOVE wooden ones that are about the size of good chop sticks. They need to be rounded and smooth or my hair eats them. I used to have some beautiful red ones what i wore for years. I accident snaped them when i had my hair to high and wound it to tight on the stick, I was sad   Would you like anything from Starring Fragrances. They make awesome hair stuff, natural deoderant, and home fragrance (and a ton of other stuff, those are just my favs)? humm not sure wonder if i can find a link. (ill get back to you)   March 16   For those who like lipgloss, lipstick, tinted balms, etc, what colors do you wear (and warm? cool?) and do you prefer something sheer or more opaque? How do you feel about shimmer? I have to admit i dont wear them but hey i am willing to try anything, and if i could get a green apple lip gloss I could be a convert     Are there any fancy/gourmet/special herbs or spices that you'd love to receive? ie: good quality vanilla or other extracts, vanilla beans, saffron, lavender, etc. - I have ALWAYS wanted to try some fo these but well i cant bring myself to pay what they want for them. Some vanilla extract of good quality would never go bad around ehre though   What's your favorite animal? Or is there one that's particularly significant to you? I like canines from domestic to wild. Hubby calls me the alpha bitch and well it isnt a bad thing   If you were able to get a vintage or prototype bottle from the upcoming West Coast Will Call, which one would you want? Humm not sure i have been avoiding temptation (well except for the call of SW)   DVDs, Blu-Ray, both, neither? dvds for the most part so i can let the kids watch them in the car   Sock Dreams?

All of these would be on the amazon list   What periods of art do you love most? Like, if someone was going to get you a tapestry or a box or some other item, what period would you want it to most resonate with? the pinks and golds of Rococo? the clean geometry of Art Deco? The romanticism of Art Nouveux? The strange lines of Cubism? I am almost an art idiot- I like color but not art deco, i like motion but not anything sloppy. I love the art of some of my manga artists but then again like Van goh and the impressionists.   Would you like caffeinated lollipops?: umm no http://www.lollyphil...cks-caffeinated   Copied CD's or DVD's? I am not so into these unless its something they havnt put out on dvd legally   I'm going to Disneyland in a couple of weeks, is there anything I can get you? Umm no   March 15   Booze?

Which do you love most? NINJA rule MAN   Do you like wearing things in your hair? If so, what kind (snap clips, scrunchie, headband, etc), how big & crazy (lowkey, bigger the better), and colors. Most of this stuff is for the girls, But i do like them. I mostly use plain black or brown bands in my hair if its not up in hair sticks   Piercings? - ears?? - elsewhere? ears   Chocolate. With stuff in it? Are you more a plain chocolate lover, a chocolate and normal items lover (normal items being nuts, fruit, caramel) or do you like weird stuff in your chocolate? (weird stuff being curry, chilis, balsamic vinegar, floraly things) hummm not so much a chocolate person but strange things sound good to try i can say i like sea salt but want much on curry   March 14   surprise! the world has given you the day off.

Yea Nay? yay   If not Baked goods and you are changing eating habits..a book of recipes perhaps that will help the new eating lifestyle? Oh yeah I liek this idea   If you were to make an order RIGHT NOW (Not that any of you will make any bpal orders until SW is over, because you do NOT want to mess up any plans your witch might have!) What would you order (from lab, forum, DD, TradingPost, etc)cant broke   What level of nudity are you fine with on items? Ex: none, tasteful, erotica tasteful   I know the ?airre asked about gently used books and if you like garage sales, but would you like other kinds of gently used items that may have come from a garage sale?

If so, things you'd love to try out? oh man yes yes i go, i go through the pampered chef lemon seasoning like it was easy to get hold of.

ALLERGIC to TEA ( i can have herbal stuff and i really like them) Hubby has developed a new thing for mint teas so he would like any of those   Favorite snack foods (and can they be from bulk section as well?)

Oh what a week

So this week has been AWFUL. The cats been ill and used the hall way with the dirty laundry sorted into it for his diarrhea, I goofed up on our bank account so we are BROKE and living on credit. the Four year old decided to not go potty and sit in her poo at preschool today. Just till I got there which meant a complete change with no wipes or cleaning gear.

Then i got a Nice postcard from my witch and the lab announced the NYCC scents which sound so Nice.

I want decants of MISS ADDIE ,MISS ANNA, MISS LIZZIE, MRS. VALENTINE and I would LOVe some of the PAINTED AND PADDED BEAUTIES BATH OIL even if i am sure the pachouli would amp.

nooo not snarky TV

Damn damn damn, I didn't need to see the Castle Pilot really I DONT NEED A snarky TV show to watch. So witch i thought i should mention i have been adding to the great WANT list of doom at amazon. Its become a kinda wonder land of things i want. So i will at some point NEED the rest of this show. It has fabulous music, to go with snarky dialog, its all things love. But i have only now seen two episodes the first and one some where in season 1 (it was about a girl rocker's death) so i can't do any fandom or anything like that YET.   Well the oldest just woke and puked her dinner down the stairs, I was thinking ti would be an early night for me. No such luck.

Newest additions to GC

okay to add to my wanted list i have gone through and would like to try these GC Add ins-   THE LIGHTS OF MEN’S LIVES THY GODFATHER’S PRESENT GODFATHER DEATH THE LITTLE WOODEN DOLL FIRE FOR THY STEPMOTHER’S DAUGHTERS VASILISSA PAÍS DE LA CANELA   It is going to be some time before i can order more from the lab. Also on a weird side note. If i could get an imp of Crowley from somewhere it would be great. Mine went home with one of my friends a year ago I am going to be doign a MnS here at the house next month and somehow it dosn't seem right to have people try Aziraphale without Crowley there to try to. Which i didn't think of when my friend fell in love with my imp.   As with anything these are just things i want and being older than i want to be my wants won't hurt me.

Life an catching up

Is your Halloween style scary, cutesy, folksy, grotesque . . .? Cutesy I love Fun things but nothing scary

10/5/15

I bought the Portal board game last week & it came with a Portal 2 steam free download code. I already have the game on another console & it's one of my favorite series of all time. Soooo, would you want it?
I have so far avoided steam I am going to continue to do so  
10/6/15

Have you read The Martian? Or do you plan on watching the movie? Not for me

Pertaining to that, how does everyone feel about such things? Will anyone be participating? How about NaNo swag, is there any you want? I am thinking fo trying again this year no idea on swag though

Honey or beeswax products? Discuss. Oh I like bee products asa long as they are responsibly sourced

How do you feel about bumper stickers and car magnets? What do you like--cute, pretty, snarky, geeky/fandomy? Okay i admit I would love a nice snarky bumper sticker but it would have to be something really ME

Life is as crazy as usual right now dear witch.

Kitchen interruption to questions

I was trying to cook today and found i was yet again out of somethings. I thought it might help you to put them in the great amazon list as ideas of what i USE around here.   Sooo there is more on the great and terrible list of DOOM!

therhoda

therhoda

 

Its That time again

SO it is again the time for Switch Witch, the best time of year I think.   here is where i shall shove things like updates on Life and of Course questions I don't want to clutter up the thread with.   Pumpkin? No keep this Fell squash and all its stink nastyness away from me   Booze? Why of course booze Want anything from Yellowstone? Be it postcards, key chains, shot glasses, pint glasses, or huckleberry what have you? I want TO GO there so bad. But I would take any goodies that I can use as a charm to MAYBE get us out there someday. Also tip advice on where to stay where not to staya nd how to have the most fun cheaply would be great 9/18/15 I know there is a question about "decorating style", but if you're comfortable, could you should us some photos of your spaces? For those of us who like to art and craft, it can be nice to have a visual sense of decorating style!   I do not let Photographic evidence of our mess out into the wild Sorry 9/19/15 For those of you who don't drink alcohol, can you specify if you live with any drinkers or ever have alcohol on hand for guests, vs. abstaining and preferring not to have it around at all? this is like those vegan people but for alchol right? Are you a fan of the TV show Penny Dreadful? No What are your coffee and tea preferences? Do you prefer one, the other, both, or neither (and if it's neither, what about things like hot cider and cocoa)? Loose leaf or bags, whole bean or ground? Is caffeine OK? Any gadgetry you're in need of? Any brands or flavors that you particularly love, loathe, or want to try? okay i LOVE herbal fruity teas, but with my allergies to both Tea the plant and Strawberries they are a dangerous tricky thing for me to get. I went through and hit Adagio teas for my amazon wishlist to give you ideas of what I can have. Also my husband has an allergy to lemongrass so i try to not bring that in the house either   What's your sense of humor like? Do you enjoy puns? Play on words? Dirty humor? Dry humor? Who are some of your favorite comedians? I like snarky things i love witty Tshirts and so on. if its potty humor you might as well count me out. Do you like board games? If so, which ones? Traditional or more unique? (like Settlers of Catan, Small World, Red Dragon Inn, etc) we actually are getting more into the idea of board games as the kids are reaching the age where they wont just EAT the pieces. i have to admit i want my own Bean cards someday Is there anything that you specifically do NOT want to receive? not that i can think of     So dear witchy friends till next time

My head ache was almost gone this morning so with some errands and having to take the little one to school ia m a little beter today.   I plan on tackling the thread later today, i am sure after a weekend away I am WAY behind.

i have been poked

All right i have been poked. today was traumatic so i am behind on most things. But i think the question you want answered is the whole kidlets costume thingy. i am nto against it, i am really leaning towards make both of them faeries or princesses. I haven't gotten stuck on EITHER yes but that the lean. if you want to send them something for it then Go on, if they dont' end up with it for their costumes i am sure it will be put to use in their dress up clothes.   i am not really up to anymore tonight. I will try to do better tomorrow.

i caved

okay i admit it I caved, i couldn't deal with the caffineless of my existence any more. So i am back to almost full speed. I am going to try weening myself back instead of the abrupt stop this time.   I will be posting to the IGT thread about the girls fairy booklets. They are Frothing to get to them and i keep telling them they have to help me get a place cleaned off to do it.   I am almost 25 pages behind on the SW thread due to my weekend in the fog. I will slog through it today and hope to get to the minty catch uped ness by tonight, but it may be tomorrow.

First round of questions answered Sorta

1. I wonder what a potential witchee would think about being bombarded with PUMPKINS in various formats. Because my current obsession just may last long enough to be of use in spoiling.....but I know wouldn't be appreciated by everyone. Would you appreciate it?!? Not so much pumpkin isnt really me 2. I currently have a CSA and my significant other is perpetually out of town for work, so I've been doing a lot of canning and baking with my vegetables. How do people feel about canned good (pickles, salsa, etc) and vegetal baked goods (squash bread, zucchini bread). 3. Trading Post wants? actually i have one of these its a past one BUT i need more hair gloss 4. What direct sellers do you not like and would prefer not to get things from? And also feel free to list any retail brands you really don't like. umm unless you are going through walmart i am good i avoid wally world like the plague they are 5. How about y'alls coffee and tea preferences? I am alergic to regular tea and i dont drink coffee. BUT herbals are nice and if you can find a nice appley one thats sweet I woudl so drink it up once the winter that ia m fearing hits 6. Do you cook? Would kitchen accessories make you happy? yes i cook lots things i NEED right now is a new silicone spatula ( the kidds got mine) a work meat thermomenter, and a didgital scale that actually works. 7. How do people feel about creative endeavours? Would you like to receive one? Or supplies to make your own? What do you like? Drawings, stories, poems? I love them only problem is my taste is a little dark or grave yard humorish i ahve tried to leave LOTS of evidence for what i DO like around on my lists though 8. What culture or country (doesn’t have to be modern) do you feel an innate connection with? What about it makes it special to you? i feel in turns in tune with cherokee and irish which given my heritage makes a LOT of sense 9. Is there any sort of art commission you would like: cartoony, pin-up, fantasy, realistic, etc? If so, what subject would you like drawn (a picture of you, a character, a loved one or pet)? yes i would like a family portrait where we are all drawn as our animals we call each other by. Which breaks down to a large female dog(mastiff or shepherd), a tinier male hound dog with soulful brown eyes, a Sleek Girly River Otter, a thin but cranky girl badger, and a Tiny round chubby Tasmanian devil 10. What do you find yourself doing for fun in your free time? What are your main hobbies and interests? i read fan fiction and Play Flightrising.com 11. Table-top gaming? If yes, what kind, edition, etc? Gaming accessories you long for? Not for years 12. DVD movies or games that you wish would magically appear in your hands? Can they be used, through Amazon? interview with a vampire on blue ray (used is fine if they work) 13. What kind of snacks or candy from other countries/states would you like to try? I am TRYING to cut out candy. Also the sprogs cant have anything that has red 40 in it. BUT if you found some GOOD candies iw ouldt turn my back on apple candy 14.

First round of questions answered

I am working on the great list of questions, if you have questions i am willing to answer them   9/4/10 Are you into Austen's books?  Umm no, although if you had an Old battered copy of pride and prejudice that i can try and read again i have been told to try again now that i am older   Do you read Tarot cards? If not, would you be interested? I did but I lost my deck last year to the Girls who thought they were just big playing cards. I would love a new set, but they would need a nice box that I can put up unnoticed   So for those of you who are into Harry Potter at all, which house do you think you'd be sorted into? I am a Ravenclaw through and through (I used to miss the bus because I was sitting there reading when it came)   What, if anything, is your guilty TV watching pleasure?I have to admit I watch Mythbusters about any time I watch an actual SHOW. But my guilty pleasure is Palidia chanel with all the concerts. I LOVE live music and having it on my tv is an extra bonus   If you cosplay or need a costume for your bellydance/burlesque hobby (or any other hobby which needs dressup/different from your normal wear), is there anything you need/want for it? Hummm as a largish person I try NOT to go out in public but I would love one of those bright scarves to use while I do my belly dancing exercise   Celebrity crush?:Keanu Reeves, followed closely by Brad Pitt with orlando Bloom hanging around for effect.   Knitted things?:YES, although I am sensitive to itchies with some fibers. BUT I have to say one of my not so secret wishes is for a LONG ravenclaw scarf for me and a slitheren on for the hubby   What about [mixed or otherwise] DVDs?hummm never had a mixed dvd what is on that?   DVDs: Do you prefer widescreen or formatted? You philistine how could you even mention formatted in my presence   Music: Any preference towards MP3 or CD? I like both, the only thing is I like to listen to mix cds in the car which dosn't do mp3s   Do you like scented tarts? I don't have anything to do anything with them not against them just not sure what they Do   Lip balms? yes but only really good balms. A past witchy set me up with my lip stuff ( mylipstuff.com)and I have been in love with it every since but I am almost out with winter in Ohio approaching   Do you have any body mods? If so, do you need any new jewelry, o-rings, plugs, etc (and if so, what size, length, etc)? Do you like pro-body mod stickers? Sorry the only thing I have is pieces ears and I am always on the look out for new studs that my ears won't eat.   Booze. Do you drink it, would you like some I lvoe booze and any that come to the house will be drunk by someone     What is your favorite artist or art style? (including if you have links to favorite pictures/paintings/photographs) humm I love lots of artists but it is the pieces not the artist themselves that draw me in. I love the early works of Kim McElroy ( http://www.spiritofhorse.com/ ) her illusionary horses are in person just amazing. I find her more recent stuff and her new world view a little wooo woo. I live to read about what ever Ursula Veron ( http://www.redwombatstudio.com/ )has come up with to do this time. I adore this woman and some day will make a pilgrimage to a con shes attending just to shake her hand and thank her for all the laughs I have had since following her lj all those years ago. If she ever does DO the hamsutra I Have GOT to have one!! I like bright gorgeous colors but I also like classics such as van gogh's sunflowers and starry night. Monet depending on the canvass. I like color and I like it In your face. Humm I wonder if this answer makes any sense to anyone not me.     9/03/10 Hallowe'en plans? kidlet trick or treating, I am thinking the spawn should be faeries this year so I am looking for cost effective wings and so on.   Mix Cds?oh yeah   Girlyness level? That depends on a day to day basis I am almost a man. Exept for my vainness about getting my hair put up every day. But I LOVE LOVE to pamper myself sometimes, I indulge in things like bubble baths and I LOVE the Ice prince Oil (I should horde it but oh its so relaxing) On the other hand no one in their right mind things i am a guy.   9/02/10 Baked goods: all for this I love baked foods   Gifts for other household members: the girls if not given their own will probably mis appropriate something from the packages   Are you someone who'd rather have lots of small testers of different things on your wishlist, or would you rather have one or two "big" things? Hummm My poor little wishlist for bpal is so smallish right now. That most of what ON it I will take in what ever form I can get my grubby paws on it and be a VERY happy camper for getting it   social networking usernames, ie twitter, facebook, livejournal, ravelry, anything else: I am on LJ as therhoda, dreamwidth as the same. I don't post much and most of what i DO post is fandom and whiny. But feel free to add me.   would you like to receive Groupons or similar deals/gift certificates from your Witch? The deals on groupon look sweet but I am not sure anything Would be ME there.   How about tshirt/bottoms sizes? I am fat!@ sooo you are look at a mens large or a womens xl or xxl as far as tops. I am a size 22 top and a size 20 pants. But I would love some nice flannel anything, I tend to sleep in old flannel shirts in the winter, I tend to steal them from male relatives or beg for them for holidays.
