MIA

by rachaelgking on April 12, 2010 · 47 comments

I’m going to be a bit MIA while I rock this whole jury duty thing, but I figured I could give you a taste of how my weekend was. My dear friend cavy was in town, so I figured the only thing to do was throw her a party.

This is how that went.

Actually, this is just the tiniest TASTE of how that went. Let’s just say there will be the vlog to end all vlogs tomorrow, inspired by Tosh.0′s “surprise trust falls.”

You’ll see.

Trust me.

Mama said share.

That cat was BEGGING for it.

Also, my unpainted nails make me want to cry.

2 Maxie April 12, 2010 at 9:38 pm: @lexa, I was sitting here trying to figure out whose hand that was because we all know lex doesn’t go anywhere with unpainted nails.

FOR SHAME.

I shudder to think of the day when Jury Duty will come calling for me. Sitting on a hard bench all day is NOT good for my ass.

…but then again, I’m pretty sure jury benches went out with the 1950′s…

Don’t they have plush chairs now?

I’ve never wanted to be a cat so badly in my life. It’s been a LONG day and the only thing I’ve medicated it with is a slice of pizza and a Weight Watchers ice cream bar. LAME.
