Bueller?

I'm here.  We've been setting up FI's new laptop, which he got with Christmas GCs, so now he's like a little kid playing with it and I'm bored.  Anyone else up?

  • This movie is a mixture of aww and head tilts.  The head tilts are winning right now.

  • Yeah, there seemed to be way too much going on in that movie, so I never checked it out.

    I am also online trying to buy a microphone headset!  I hate trying to scream into my webcam.
  • Ooooo.  Nates.  Pretty!!

    I like it, but would be worried about keeping it on my head.  Is your head good at keeping stuff on it?

  • TY, guys!

    My hair is pretty awesome about holding shiit.  That's probably why it gets so knotty.  But, seriously, I think the texture of my hair (thick/curly) will hold it with bobby pins.  I just want it in white ribbon instead.  It has a really pretty matching bracelet, which I also love.

    Does anyone have a laptop cooler/fan?  I need one for my laptop since it gets super hot, but I don't know which one to go with.Undecided
  • I think you can get chill pads for pretty cheap on the internet.  I don't think a brand will make one more special than another.

    Okay, good.  I'm overwhelmed by Amazon reviews, but I think I might go with this Belkin one.  MY laptop just gets so hot and it's prone to shutting down without proper ventilating.  Apparently, that's a pretty common problem with my laptop, but I've had it for at least four or five years and it works great, so I don't want to get rid of it just yet.
  • I had a headband even less sturdy and it stayed in fine.  The magic of lots of hairspray.

    Good to know.  I want something sparkly in my hair, but I'm not really a tiara girl, much to my mom's dismay.  I think this will look good with my dress, too.  I wasn't planning on getting accessories so early, but I was playing around on Etsy, the soul sucking wallet-drainer.

    Also, consider a lap desk if you're a lap laptop user.

    This, ha. Mine had lace elastic, and I am jealous of the ribbon on that Etsy one. Not only is it prettier, but it looks more comfortable.

    ETA- I always thought I would end up with some fancy tiara, but I am really glad I got a sparkly headband instead.

    I'm thinking of getting a small travel desk for my MIni.  Our regular comp is a laptop that we leave on our desk.  Desklaptop :P.

    Hi! I'm here! We're working on wedding invites and what not. Exciting stuff.

    I have one of those lap top fan dealys. I recommend getting one, but get a solid one that the laptop can sit firmly on top of. I got one that is like an "X" shape and is a little smaller than my netbook and it was such a PITA to try to keep it balanced on the fan.

    ETA: Nates, that headband is SO pretty! I love it!

    I wouldn't mind an elastic band, but my head is abnormally large and headbands usually hurt me :P.  Seriously, I hope it's because of my thick hair, but I'm afraid I just have a big head.
  • I'm here too, though I expect y'all hardly know who I am yet. I'm trying to be bolder about posting...

    I love that headband, Nates! I decided not to wear anything but a few flowers in my hear (no veil or headband or anything) and I kind of regret it. I'm jealous of other people's head accessories.

    You know what's weird? I'm afraid that if I ever had to shave my head for some reason, I would have a really oddly shaped one.

    Cool, that's what I got.  It's like a stationary fan that my laptop will sit on.  Finding one for my netbook will be tricky, I think, but this one seems great for my desk laptop!

    Yay for wedding invites!  I want you to have a bio immediately so I can stalk all of your plans :P.

    I am pretty sure I have a big head. That's why the ribbon sounds more appealing because elastic headbands are usually tight on the back of my head. Luckily mine had a little give to it, but I would have preferred something I could tie to a certain size.

  • Oh, good heavens, I have the ugliest head in the world. Bumps and spots and everything. I had a buzzcut in high school for a while (I was being tough or something) and I had to wear a hat even though it was summer. So gross.
  • Ha, Led, me too!  I'm not even sure why I worry about these things, but I do.

    Arwo, I recognize you!  I really liked your dress pics (was it today or yesterday? not working for this week is messing me up).
  • I'm out here tonight. I'm hangin' on the couch with the kitties. The headband is cute. I dont like to wear them because I wear glasses and I end up getting my glasses mooshed into my headband and vice versa and it makes my whole head hurt.

    I keep thinking I need to make one of those! I've even tried to start one a couple of times, but it didn't end up getting done for some reason.


    ETA: a bio, I mean

    Haha! I love this fun fact about you.

  • Yeah, Kayla, I feel ya.  I hope this seller can replace it with white ribbon, so it matches my dress, because I really like the fact that I can adjust it.  If not, I guess it's NBD.  I do have eleven months to fins something else :P.

    Led, I love my bio because it helps me keep track of all my ideas.  You're much closer, though, so you have a lot of stuff decided.  I've got a lot of inspiration pics and such, so the bio helps me be organized. 

    On another note, are you so excited for your wedding?!?

    [QUOTE]Love the headband Etsy find Nates! Though I think the mannequin it's on is a little creepy. Didn't the seller have any IRL friends?

    Check out her other pieces--the mannequin gets infinitely more creeptastic.  Its makeup is so crazy.
