Oh boy.
In case you didn’t know, I hate the fair. It is absolutely NOT super-magical. Honestly, if I didn’t have to go for work, I wouldn’t go. And I really should play state fair bingo when I do go (after my shift) because it would make the day so much more exciting.
Regardless: it’s [...]
It’s time for my favorite work-related thing ever … Drake Day at the Fair!
You should stop by and say hi. I’m working 6-8 at the Drake Day tent and 1-5 at the VI building. We’re doing a photo contest this year — pick up a pennant and spread your love for Drake.
well, I spent 90% of this day driving around Ames trying to figure out how the hell to A) get across town and then B) get out of town to Des Moines.
As it turns out, apparently I’m living on the island of Ames.
After driving around for nearly 3 hours, I decided it would [...]
Welcome to my much-needed new feature … FO Friday. FO stands for finished object (as opposed to UFO — un-finished object).
To recap my embarrassingly long list of UFOs:
Mug for a friend’s birthday present (2 weeks ago) Tattoo Dish Set (July 2009) mom’s pleather jacket restyle (September 2009) quilt for my mom (March 2009) [...]
Last week I wasn’t feeling very well, and especially not on Wednesday, so I called in sick. I didn’t realize that it was the same day that Twilight came out (barf), and my one coworker said “We all know why Calee’s not here today — she was up late at the midnight showing of Twilight.”

after some gentle prodding from my friend, Shelly, I finally changed purses.
Meet my adorable new Kathy Van Zeeland purse!
I just got done moving apartments, but I forgot to mention that I moved cubes at work. We recently staffed up, so we did some shifting. Here’s my new (and maybe temporary — we should be moving buildings this summer!) digs:
And don’t forget the rabbit … [...]
I so don’t have time to blog about this in its entirety, but for now — I’ve got to post pix at least! SOOOOO cool. I’ll share more about what this is about later, but I swapped crafts with my way cool crafty co-worker (who loves metal/punk/cool stuff) and here’s my bounty! I’ll separate it [...]
I’m so excited about this!
My co-worker, Tory, asked me late this afternoon if I could possibly help her with her sister’s wedding shower invitations. She’d ordered 30 invitations from some bogus company (who shall remain nameless — honestly b/c I don’t remember the name!) and they never sent her a proof… let alone sent [...]
My coworker posted a note on facebook about this, so I checked it out. Rules are:
1 – Go to Wikipedia and hit “random”
or simply click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.
2 – Go to “Random quotations”
or [...]
Hi there. I'm Calee. Not Caylee. Also known as chimes or the chimes. I'm 27, a designer, a runner, a self-proclaimed fitness queen, a craftster, a foodie, a music snob — some might call me a hipster. Here's the unabridged version.
