Did that just work the way it said it would?

We bought some cauldrons for Halloween off the internet. Joy found them for 10 bucks a pop... which means that there was no way they would work. I unpacked them and was really not impressed.


You were suppose to pour water in there and it plug it in and it would just start billowing smoke. I figured that the only thing billowing smoke would be me after I was electrocuted. Well, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

And wouldn't you know it... the thing worked great! The second I plug the thing in, it starts smoking away!


So there ya go. It looks really good in the dark too.


It was another scorcher weekend. Hayden has this water volcano that he really likes. I got him to sit on it which was pretty funny to watch...


Then he leaned back and got me soaking wet... which was pretty funny for him to watch.



It was only my amazing photo reflexes that allowed me to take this picture moments before standing there like an idiot and getting a load of water in my face. I've got some skills.

I actually did some work on the great wall of Arnold... but my progress was pretty dismal so I'm not going to show it. Hopefully I can finish up this weekend.

Oh, I start guitar lessons this Thursday, I'm so stoked. I met my teacher this weekend. I had to answer all these weird questions like "Why do you want to take lessons?" Um... to learn guitar? Really, I thought that one was pretty easy, but it was a set up for the brain buster... "What level of guitar do you want to get to?" Um... better than I am now.

So all in all, it was a good meeting. I think we understand each other... I want to play guitar and this guy likes money, so we're good to go.
