Despite rolling into spring the weather has felt like winter, in the early mornings at the very least. I’ve been going through watermelon withdrawals, getting closer to the end of my watermelon tea collection, and it’s difficult to find something nice during these seasons to make the watermelon part of my palate happy. As if reading my mind (well, she kinda did by reading this blog :melon: ) she gave me birthday gifts that would fill that very void.
Even the birthday card is watermelon based. I’ve never had a theme for a birthday before, and this was a wakeup call to something amazing! Any darkness that I was feeling was melted away as I continued opening my gifts in the company of Yutram who too knows my watermelon related needs.
The first gift I opened was a dress, though on me it’ll probably be a really nice top when we start getting some summer weather. :melon:
This falls under a similar category, though I think I might might be a nice small cover for the swimsuit:
I’ll be headed out of state sometime this summer hopefully, and was in need of something chlorine friendly and melontastic, and this looks like it might fight the bill if I can shed some poundage before then, at the very least I can get some boy shorts and call it good. :trollface:
I’ve been wanting to get a new mousepad for quite awhile, and I never thought of going this route. This is a really good idea, my Logitech G502 sits proudly upon it now, and will assist me in my future mouse related endeavors. :melon:
Earrings! They even match my ring! I’ll have to be careful or I may not ever take them off.
Now I can sort my USB cables in style! Perfect timing since I’m using these for my small roadtrip.
Well, looks like I have some decorating to do. These are string lights, of the watermelon variety. Perhaps around my gaming area or by the window. I’m already planning some renovations, this is a cool thing to add to the list. :melon:
I have a hat that matches this bag perfectly… no really I do.
I can’t wait for the summer to roll around, a lot of this stuff will fit well together for the river/beach. That’s assuming my extreme paleness doesn’t blind the entire town.
I’m not the kind to put my head between a pair of melons… but for the sake of music I’ll make a happy exception!
As cold as it’s been at night I might have to give this little bottle a go. This is adorable.
I’ll also be using this on my trip. A nice bag to store some additional makeup’s in, mostly eyeliners and eyeshadows methinks.
This lit up my eyes. I’m running low on my selection of watermelon teas from both Republic of Tea and David’s Tea, and was soon going to have to search for another watermelon elixir purchase, then this appeared in my hand. The inside looks and smells really good, I might even save it for a post on its own. I can’t wait to try it! That and use it in my new thermos:
Damn right! :melon: I think I’ll be using this one more with my new three week job as a vampire. I need a bottle that won’t drip, and my large behemoth of a tea thermos doesn’t fit the profile I need sadly, fortunately with this and the one I won for coming in third place in the Halloween contest I’ll be in good hands suckling on watermelon nectar during the witching hour.
Watermelon tape… why not? This is almost too beautiful to use. Yutram suggested it would be great for book binding, hmmmmm perhaps a book involving watermelons perhaps?
Of course, we have to end with SCENTED FUCKING CANDLES!!!! This one is excellent! A soy candle with the essence of watermelon, and really cool colors!
Already did a test burn as per the ritual, and it was successful. It actually smells better than the current watermelon candle I use, and that one already smelled good to begin with. Folks, you can never have too many watermelon candles, or melons. If this keeps going I’ll be the David Pumpkins of watermelons. :melon:
I owe a great thanks to my best friend, of whom I’ve had the honor to know for about a decade and a half. It’s hard for me to believe that I’ve known so many of you for so long and that we all still find time to talk to each other, maybe not as much as I’d like but hearing from you guys always puts sunshine and melons on my day. :melon: I owe great thanks, and will have to properly plan my gift vengeance to return the favor. :melon:
