This is my new crappy digital camera. The pictures aren't complete crap, but I think I could have done better, but hey, it was 10 bucks. I tried to take notes off the board with it, but that didn't work either. I can't hold a camera still, which doesn't help things. I got a good picture of a few people, though.

This was one of my Christmas presents. Isn't he/she cut? I love Great Pandas. I've heard something about their feces being used as a clean fuel... they're interesting anyways.

This is the cap to my 3 option writing utensil. It's a pen, a pencil, and a stylus all in one! *shrugs* I took off the cap and I thought I had lost it, but I found it, took the pic and threw it away. I don't need to cap an eraser...

Gummi Bears are the thing of the week. Why? Well, you guess it, I just like 'em. I think they are cute, and of course, tasty. They aren't the healthiest snack, but what can I say? I love the little buggers, they make great story puppets and are fun to play "gummi bear porn" with. (it's not as bad as it sounds). Gummi bears are just one of the many gummi treats this booming industry has to offer, there are gummi worms, and gummi soda, and last but not least, sour gummi night crawlers, (sorry gals, not the furry guy.) Gummi treats hold a special place in my heart, and thus are this week's thing.

These are my scissors I've had since 2nd grade. I got them just before Fiskers started blunting the tips of the little people scissors. So, while the ends are sharp, they do have a point on them. Although I've come to resent pink in my latter years, I still love my scissors.

Last week's thing reminded me of my dad's chiminea. It's a big clay thing that you can cook in, burn stuff in, just generally play with fire in. It's really kewl, but I think I'm the only one who has used it, (and that was to burn last year's school papers! :-D). We got it for my dad for x-mas a few years ago, it's about 3 or 4 feet tall and sits on a wire thing, (that's not a real picture of it.) It's just a tool of fire, and because every teenager is a pyromaniac, I thought it was appropriate. Until next week!

This is a random light switch. Light switches are very useful things. I would die if I had to turn on every florescent lamp when I walked into a classroom. First off I'm too short to reach the ceiling, secondly there are about 20 in every room! One good thing... try and let the teachers "turn out the lights" to make it quiet. :-D

This is my lighter that I found in my second hand BDUs. I found this AFTER we washed the pants, and it still worked. It's how I light my candles. (I don't smoke.)

In honor of the Academy Awards, I'm putting up an Oscar for the thing of the week. There were many deserving recipients last night.

Once again Phoenix was caught looking up "thing" on google again! I believe this is a bike. If it is, I would like to have one, provided it is not too hard to pedal. I'd love the extra reassurance that I won't swallow a fly, or get rained on. It does look like something from the Jetson's though. Can't blame a guy for trying.
