IM REALLY BACK!

I finally have my laptop back!!!!!! I really never thought the day would come...its been over a month since I broke it! Luckily it is now repaired, but is missing a screw and now smells very strongly of cigars and patchouli. But at least I have it :P

A while back, I mentioned that I had swatched and photographed all of my Fyrinnae collection mainly because I had gotten a bunch of new colors since I had swatched them a long time ago. So here they are! I know this isnt terribly exciting, but its all I have for now. Each set has a pic showing the names in the same order as in the swatch pics then a shot taken in direct sunlight and one taken with a flash.

On a related note, I finally figured out how to upload pics directly to Blogger rather than Photobucket so that you can see pics at but larger...but now when you click on them they are WAY too big. So, I will try to adjust that. In the meantime enjoy :)

In the meantime

Looks like Im getting my dearest laptop back middle of this week...I will believe that when I see it. In the meantime, Ive been considering getting some colored contacts just for shiggles. I had some turquoise lenses in high school and it was always fun to change my eye color according to my mood. So, here are some colors I chose on Freshlookcontacts.com. Im not sure how to do a formal poll thingy, so feel free to comment on which you like the best! I like so many of them, I may get them all...ok maybe 2 or 3?

Update again....

This whole laptop fiasco is really getting out of control. So, a new power cord was not the solution. Now, after many phone calls I found a place that can look at repairing it by the end of the week. Just to look at it. Then, who knows how long before they can repair it. I am so sad/angry with myself for dumping the stupid thing on the floor. Anyways, in the meantime, I finally took the time to swatch and take pictures of my entire Fyrinnae collection. I actually spent almost 3 hours on this over the weekend. Can we say pathetic?? So, either I wait until I get my laptop back to post them or I try to do it on a Mac. Honestly, for me it may be faster to wait ;)

In the meantime I just wanted to share my newest obession. As always, me = late to the party. While picking out books to read on vacation I picked up Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. Here we are 8 days after I began reading it, and I've read it, New Moon and Eclipse...and have begun to read Twilight again. Ok, I like to read...but I am not the type of person who reads at every spare moment and constantly has their face buried in a book. Honestly though, I could NOT put these down. I am already counting down the 25 days until Breaking Dawn is released. And yes, I know this is supposed to be young adult fiction. Yes, I am 26 years old. So what!!!! Im not even into the fantasy genre...no Harry Potter for me.

At this point you are either thinking 1 of 2 things.

1) Wow, she really does catch on late...I read Twilight like 2 years ago!!!
2) WTF is she talking about?

If you are thinking the first thing...hey, at least I found out what I was missing eventually!!! If you are thinking the second...here is a link:

Stephenie Meyer - Twilight Series

In closing, if there are any looks you would like me to try or any things you would like swatched...please feel free to ask. Im low on ideas, and since I have nothing to do but sit around and reread Twilight...oh wait, I want to do that ;)

Help may be on the way!

So I ordered a new power supply for my laptop and it should come tomorrow or Saturday...then hopefully thats all it needs. If not, I need to start saving some cash. Cross your fingers for me that that will fix it! Otherwise, as Derek put it, my computer is nothing but a brick.
