I know I’m a day late to the link-up, but it’s too fun to skip! I don’t really have a reason for not posting yesterday, except that we were having one of those weird lazy days when absolutely nothing gets accomplished. And that includes blogging. #bloggerfail
Anyway, make sure to stop by Alyssa’s blog every Tuesday for this awesome link-up. Just grab the button, jot down ten random things that are on your mind, and add your linky to the widget! Hey presto!
1. In news of the totally lame, we are just now having our Valentine’s dinner today. On the 26th. Better late than never?
2. Un-lame: this showed up for V-Day. After he gave it to me, the husband asked, “So what did I just buy?” Eyeshadow, honey. The best eyeshadow ever.
3. Also un-lame: I’ll finally be trying vegan shrimp today. Fingers crossed that it’s good.
4. One good thing about the cold weather: the cats are extra cuddly.
5. I really want to see this movie when it comes out. I don’t like Tom Cruise, but I do love Emily Blunt, and it’s awesome that she’s a soldier hero instead of just a love interest.
7. I finally got a new webcam, so we’ll see how that works for filming YouTube videos. I’d really like to film more, and it’s just so inconvenient on my tablet. (Not really the tablet’s fault, it’s just not meant for that sort of thing!)
8. The webcam came home after I discovered that my old camcorder is sooooo old, it can’t even be used with our computer. As in, we’re running Windows 7, and the last time they released a driver update, it was to accommodate Windows XP…way back in 2007. Yikes.
9. Check out this awesome video of a dancing armadillo that my friend Katrin sent over this AM. Instant good day.

My cats have been extra static-y! I have a humidifier going and I’ve tried rubbing them with used dryer sheets. I’ve combed a little olive oil into their fur and that helped a bit, but my poor babies get zapped everytime the touch me :( Modcloth has such a fun selection! Enjoy your beautiful new palette!
Martha Woods
Mine are avoiding the static so far, but if they ever get bad I’ll remember the olive oil trick!! And thank you, I’m really loving the palette :)
Katrin
Sometimes you just have those days where you get nothing accomplished, I guess there is nothing you can do against that!
I hope you are having a fantastic Valentine’s Day dinner!
Your husband is so nice for giving you make-up! :)
Let me know how you liked the vegan shrimp!
And I agree: Lumpi and Tiger wants to cuddle all the time as well!
Thanks for sharing that Modcloth shirt with me! It is so fantastic! You are fantastic! <3
Can’t wait to see more videos of you! And I am so happy you like the armadillo video too. I am not exaggerating when I say that I watched it over 20 times and it still makes me laugh so much. Glad nobody can see me. :)
Martha Woods
The vegan shrimp was awesome! I need to buy more. :D I first opened that video at 4 AM and I was afraid I’d wake the husband up laughing!! :P

4. One of ours has taken to sitting on the heater vent. Smarty pants!
6. It’s hard to pick, isn’t it?!
Kristan Bartlett
I love that, my husband always asks me what he just bought me also!
Martha Woods
Glad I’m not alone!
Catherine @ bcrueltyfree
Aww, what a sweet vday present :) I hope vegan shrimp is good, what’s it made of?
Martha Woods
Seaweed, elephant yam and brown rice powder seem to be the three main ingredients, which sounds really strange–but it was actually really tasty!!
Autumn Caravona
Oh girl Chris and I still haven’t had our V-Day dinner LOL. My “present” is supposed to be the N3!
Martha Woods
Nice! I can’t wait to see the pictures on your blog!
Lora Ashley
I’m not a fan of Tom Cruise either.
And hooray for cuddly kitties :-)
Martha Woods
I’ll miss their snuggliness once summer gets here!!

That’s a great Valentine’s day gift, and a great question from the hubby lol. :D I also got some makeup for V-Day, this great lipstick I had been eyeing. :) Vegan shrimp… you’ve got to let us know how that turned out. :)

Martha Woods
It actually turned out pretty good! I was surprised that they got the texture right. I can’t wait to buy more :D I’m such a seafood junkie!
Yun, The Polish Hideout
That’s awesome. I’m glad you were able to find something that approximates what you love. :)
