Claire is still at it

The characters never end, and my pile of flashcards is now over 7 inches tall, haha. I've only moved up one page since my last post about this workbook. Progress is progress.

I put these on again, and I am still set on the fact that I look really dope-y with these on. I thought if I could tell myself it wasn't that bad, I would be able to bear wearing them in a 3 hour chemistry lab. But I'll just deal with it, haha. They were only $3.99 after all.

Remember my first Japanese-speaking watch that I broke when washing the dishes? Well, this one was the replacement. I received it as a gift this past Christmas, and guess what! I washed the dishes again!! Haha, I'll probably buy a replacement for said replacement, so the kid never knows his rabbit died. :)


I had an excellent time with Thatcher today. I don't know how we do it, but we managed to sit and talk from 1:20 PM to about 5:00 PM almost. We talked about macaroni and cheese while we were there, and when I got home, I decided to make my own batch of homemade Mac n' Cheese. I got the recipe from a magazine, and BOY was it awful. I couldn't taste the cheese. It just tasted like noodles. hahaha

Oh, and today at Tom Thumb: Thatcher and I were at the self checkout lane, buying those chips you see there to the left. I ran out of cash, so I actually (I almost never do) used my check card. When payment time came around, I swiped my card somewhere around 7 times. I was starting to get embarrassed because there was a lady waiting in line behind us. So Thatcher took a turn at swiping, and the same result occurred. THAT'S WHEN I SAW IT: On the machine itself, it said to select payment type. We burst into laughter (of humiliation for me! haha) finished the process, and left the store laughing. This is why I should just continue to use cash all the time.
