Snow in April

  • The movie Can’t Buy Me Love is on, starring Patrick Dempsey when he was a teenager. He was such a nerd. It’s so funny to see how much he has changed.
  • On another note, my house is out of control. As in, the mess is out of control. I ran the dishwasher this week and did all the laundry, but I haven’t made it to the next step yet. There are clean dishes in the dishwasher, so the dirty ones are piling up. And the clean laundry is in a towering pile on the guest bed, getting higher and higher.
  • My mom is thinking, then why don’t you just take care of it instead of writing a post all about it? That is a good question. But since I have been doing homework nonstop lately, cleaning the house sounds absolutely miserable.
  • Although it is April, the weather is terrible. It’s snowing outside and I’m drinking hot chocolate like it’s December.
  • My husband got a $1200 scholarship from a graphic design talent award. I told you he was talented!
  • I really want to play the new Michael Jackson Kinect game.
  • I moved my graduation date to August so I could keep my campus job through summer term. But I am still walking in two weeks, do not worry.
  • Does anyone else think it’s weird that the oldest brother from 7th Heaven will be in a new ABC Family movie? Or maybe it’s a perfect match.
  • I wish I would have kept a blog through high school because I’m sure those would be funny posts to reread.

Spring Fever

It’s spring fever.  That is what the name of it is.  And when you’ve got it, you want – oh, you don’t quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!

Hot Mess

I would, as Danica Budge would say,

a hot mess.

It’s been a long week or two. Perfection is currently on hold. For now, my motto is to just get through.

Bad attitude? No, I just have so much to do! The worst part is that when I finally get to go to bed, I can’t fall asleep because my mind literally is making to-do lists and thinking about what else I need to be doing.

But good things are on there way, such as:

  1. Payday tomorrow
  2. Getting involved  in a new youth mentor program
  3. Weekend
  4. Spring/Graduation/A visit from the parents
  5. Liam Neeson’s new movie

Here are things that need to change in my life:

  1. I’ve got to stop watching all these prison shows, it’s making me want to work in a prison/visit a prison/go to prison? Scratch that last one. But really, I’m so fascinated with the people in prison and just want to talk to them. (Heidi, I envy you for getting to go to a prison for school.)
  2. If I do not stop reading all of these blogs about my friends/stalkees who are having babies, I will need a baby within the next…month? week? Better solution: babysit. So, can one of my friends who are moms, can I babysit your kid? Even better solution: Can you give me some money for me to buy your baby clothes?
  3. Making lists in my head at night. Wow, D Budge has made it into my post twice today. She recommended Motrin PM. Mom, am I allowed to do that?
  4. I’ve got to start assuming the worst when I apply to a job. Getting my hopes let down 5 times in two weeks is getting really old.
  5. I have GOT to start using my All Sports Pass. What the heck? I spent so much on that thing and have only gotten like 25 bucks out of it so far. Baseball games. Yes, that’s it. I’ll go to ALL of the baseball games. It’ll give me something to do when I’m jobless starting April 23rd.

Alright, I’m sure that’s enough text for you to skim through 🙂

Brain Dead

I finished our taxes (raise your hand if you finished too!). So in addition to dreaming of summer, I am dreaming about what we are going to do with our return. Here are the things I’ve come up with so far. It probably will only cover two or three of the following… but it’s still fun to brainstorm.

  1. Get our car fixed. (This is number one and will definitely happen.)
  2. Pay off our bills and credit card (this also must happen).
  3. (Here’s where they start to be fun…) Buy an iMac and the Adobe Creative Suite.
  4. Go on a cruise for my graduation.
  5. Buy plane tickets for the summer to see my family.
  6. Buy plane tickets to go to the thousands of weddings that are occurring this summer.
  7. Save money (boring, but should happen).
  8. Buy an iPhone 4 (or save up for the new one coming out this summer).
  9. Save the money for Disneyland with T.J.’s family this summer.
  10. Go shopping and buy a lot of new clothes and new shoes (this will happen no matter what…)

A girl can dream, can’t she?

Avoid Tight Fitting Clothes.

I am always hesitant to repost an image or material making its way through the blogosphere because I want to find my own ideas to blog about. But, I couldn’t pass this one by. It’s the perfect paragraph for “one of those weeks.”

Morning Mahem

I’ve got a lot going on in my mind. I can’t even escape from it when I sleep. Seriously. Last night I dreamed that I was worrying about everything.

Isn’t that the worst?

Beside from these long-term concerns, I’ve got a lot of short-term concerns. As in, all my homework due today that I did not accomplish. I guess I could blame it on procrastination. But I’m going to blame it on the long-term concerns. How can I be expected to do my homework when I have all these other things going on in my head?

Oh, and T.J. got into an car accident yesterday. He’s fine. The car will probably need a new bumper, but it’s drivable.

Just when we thought we couldn’t get any poorer, we did.

Last night, I went to bed before T.J. got home because he had to stay on campus late to work on a project. I’ve said this before, but I’m extremely scared of robbers/rapers. I always have been and I always will be. It’s so bad right now that I hide my expensive possessions when I leave the house. Well, as I was laying in bed I swore I heard someone come into the house. I was too scared to look, so I tried to be silent and I put the blanket over my head, plotting how to defend myself. When I woke up this morning, my laptop was gone. I started panicking! Freaking out. But then I realized I moved it right before bed. All was well. No robbers attacked last night. But I think I need to start worrying about how psycho I am turning out to be.

That is all. I probably should get going and finish my homework. Have a good day, folks.

Adrenaline Rush

I sort of love driving in the snow on a road where nothing is in sight. That happened to me this morning. I slid just for a moment, but it gave me a bit of a rush.

It reminds me of turning my lights off while driving on an open, dark road. I only do it for about one second at a time. But that one second gives me a heart attack.

Am I the only one who likes these types of things?

Dolphins are just gay sharks.

  1. Whenever I take medicine with soda, I’m worried the medicine and carbonation will combine and explode in my body.
  2. When I get a blemish, the thought that my face is rotting comes to mind.
  3. Last night, I tried to throw away my tissue in the dumpster. I threw away my phone accidentally.

Animorph

Sometimes I worry about turning into a golf fish after eating so many gold fish.

19 Days and Counting

In 19 days, T.J. and I will be in Kentucky! I cannot wait. I also cannot wait for our direct flight straight into Cincinnati. Usually, we have one or two stops before we get to Louisville, then a 2 hour drive home. This will be much better!

Here are some things about home that I am excited:

  • Family
  • Blair and Little Blair
  • Crushed Ice and water from the fridge
  • Lots of goodies
  • Christmas Eve with the Dorans
  • MEETING AMELIA, my new neice
  • Skyline
  • Panera
  • Graeters
