Necklaces and old memes

elabyWe had a really nice day today ^_^ We went to a craft fair in a nearby town because somebody from my high school (or middle school, more like... she transferred somewhere at the beginning of high school, I think) was selling her handmade bags and jewelry there. We got some really beautiful earrings. I also got a necklace with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
caitirin's help :3 It's an sphere of amber on a very nice pendant, about the size of a small marble. I really love it.
When I was little, I used to dig through my great aunt's attic - she took care of old friends of hers and one of them had a metric ton of old cheap jewelry that she gave to my great aunt, and I always got to pick through it when I was there. I had this absolutely magpie-like obsession with shiny necklaces and pins, even if they would be really kitschy by grown-up standards. There was this one that was a solid sphere of glass, about as big as a nickel, which had a mustard seed suspended in it. I thought it was the coolest, most magicalmystical looking thing ever. I even wrote it into stories, I thought it was so cool. At any rate, I lost it, and I have no idea where it is now... but this necklace reminds me of it (only this one is of better quality). Squee!
I have all these awesome "five things meme" suggestions that I haven't gotten to yet. So here's one.
1. Stick his tongue in Flynn's ear
2. Point out loudly that it's no wonder Flynn is tired and sore in certain places after last night
3. While drunk, decide that if he doesn't have to wear clothes in his wolf form, why should he in his human form?
4. Tell the attendant at the carnival that Flynn isn't tall enough to go on the roller coaster
5. One time, when they were in a bar, they overheard a kid say that it was his 21st birthday and this was his first drink. Kishi challenged him to a drinking contest. Naturally, werewolf constitution won out.
1. "I showed him/her something eternal." Saionji begs to differ with the "eternal" bit especially.
2. "I plucked the rose," especially used in his more faux-Victorian moments
3. "I found his/her shining thing" or alternately, "I helped him/her find his/her shining thing," depending on position
4. "I was allowed to handle the stick shift." Only used with one particular partner.
5. "I've done something to make you jealous," used exclusively towards Saionji.
caitirin has been a baking fiend today - we made a peach tart (omgsogood), and also some muffins for a couple of our friends who have been having a real crappy couple of days. Staying within my points is going to be fun this week ^^;; I'm back to the number I had when I was trying to lose weight, since when I reached my goal, I added about 5 a day and gained a few pounds back over the next two weeks. Oh well, I'm used to that schedule.
