You've got to be kidding

So, this is old news, but I just learned about it and my jaw about hit the floor when I heard the story. I am not sure if I can remember the whole thing but I will try. Alright my parents were vacationing in Tunica, and had stopped to get something to drink and my father started up a conversation with the guy in line behind him. Any of you that know my father know this is nothing out of the ordinary. After getting to know this guy through the line they found out he was walking from Tunica, MS, to Memphis TN because his father and he were on a trip and his father left him, he has Alzheimer’s. So the kid was walking home, and met my folks and I guess the kid was a former college football player, like my dad, and that was similarity enough. After much hesitation on both sides my parents asked him to ride with them as far as they could take him, so my parents picked up a hitch hiker!!! You don't understand my mom who is miss careful and drives me nuts most of the time is not the type of person to pick someone up. I guess they said they let him sit in front and my mom in back so if he tried anything my mom was in the back to hit him, ya right! Well, happily they survived, and the kid made it home. Now, I have seen WAY too many scary movies to ever, EVER pick up a hitch hiker. Not to mention I read the book desperation scary stuff.

News on the space shuttle discovery, I guess there is a problem and noboby is sure when and if it will be safe to bring them home, reassuring huh? Here if you would like to read about it, http://www.cnn.com/2005/TECH/space/07/31/shuttle/index.html I am fascinated by this stuff! I can't even imagine what the families of the astronauts are thinking, or those loved ones of the columbia crew, scary times. I would not want to be stuck on that space station, but if it meant that or burning up on re-entry I sure as hell would choose the space station. God be with them is all I can say, and lets pray for their safe return.

Alright I am signing off for the evening and heading to bed! :) Hope everyone has a great Monday, the start of another wonderful work week, oh wait I am off all week WOOTADING!

HEY CARA Anything new on the Jimmy front?

Oh Dios Mio!

Well, I have really done it now, and I am starting to wonder what the hell did I get myself into now? So the person I have been talking too, I have decided to leave out all names due to certain reasons I don't feel like explaining. We talked last night and they were getting ready to go out with their significant other, yes they have one of those I didn't know, and well in front of a big group of people guess what the topic of conversation was, yep ME! Oh joy! Pretty much I was bad mouthed by everyone at the table but two people the one I talk too and the best friend, the significant other refers to me as the "internet boyfriend" I pose this question, if you are in a serious relationship would you really have time to be online talking to someone for 3+ hrs pretty much every night? I don't feel like I have done anything wrong, I haven't been overly flirting or asked this person out nor will I, but I will not stop talking to them because I do enjoy their company immensly so I guess I am in a bind. They are going on a beach trip and evidently that is going to be the end of the relationship, but I will not be a rebound sorry. It's times like these I am thankful to know Cara, I swear she is the only person I can talk too about this stuff, I just don't have anyone else to talk too about this situation, so thanks Nuts for listening :) I will keep you updated on the situation, I am sure it will only get worse knowing my luck.

In other news, we are all pitching in to help my grandmother, her house was hit pretty hard by the storms the other night. She lost power, cable, and has some really bad damage in her backyard, a tree split in half and came down on her backyard garage! She said she was in her closet and the whole entire house was shaking and she was asking God, "please make it stop" thank God she is alright! I rode the storms out at my neighbors, yes you can laugh at me for being a wimp and not wanting to be alone, but I have been thru a tornado, and I wasn't going thru another one by myself. On a side note the tornado siren is freaking loud in this town! Luckily we didn't get hit as hard as Kokomo. It's funny before the first tornado hit I never took the warnings very serious at all, because I thought oh it's not gonna hit us. Now after the tornado in 98 every warning that comes out I get my little supply kit ready for anything :)

Alright I am out, last night of my adult class I teach! Also a big night on big brother, that evil midget eric will hopefully be voted out.

men

Me: So how long are you going to be mad at me?
Jimmy: Dont worry about it, i said what i had to say last night
ME: Well, I think you're over reacting--you do the same things to me. I guess you know how I feel now.
Jimmy:It is different most times i do it, you dont have kids, i do, and i wont choose you over my kids
ME:I know I don’t have kids and I don't get mad or expect you to chose your kids over me. And I have a personal life and things come up and I won't chose you over that b/c that is important to me.

Men suck!! LoL. I doubt we will be talking again.

I give up....

I give up on guys. Jimmy left me several hurtful text messages last night since I had some things come up and couldn't be available last night when he was. I mean there are numerous times when he is "busy" or says he will be by, but never shows up....do I get mad?? Noooo. In the "relationship" we have, there shouldn't be anyone getting mad. I just think he is a baby and I don't need this right now.

I wonder how Mullah has been doing. I haven't talked to him in almost a week!! w00t!!

BIG BROTHER RECAP

HA HA HA ERIC, in your face!!! I hope your ass gets voted off Thursday night. What a troll!! I can't believe last night's episode!! Kaysar rocked!! He is really really smart!! I kind of like James, he is pretty smart. Maggie...what is up with the ribbon in your hair??? How old are we know? Come on. Ivette....cry cry cry. You're so ghetto...I hate your voice!!

Anyway, I loved BB last night and can't wait till Thursday!!!

I finally got my new washer delivered yesterday!! So nice to be able to do laundry in my own apartment again. This past weekend I also got a new TV and DVD. ... so excited. I'm still waiting on my insurance check to come in so I can get a new laptop and camera.

Last night I woke up in bed in a sweat...I hate sweating. So I went to see what the A/C was set on which I normally keep it on 75 or so. Well the temp in my apartment was 81!! YIKES!! So I turned my A/C down some to like 72....still no relief a couple hours later =( Then I realized my A/C never turned off which is weird. It will kick on here and there, but last night it never kicked off!! So I think my air is broke!! GRRR one thing after another. Good thing it was pretty cool around 1am, like 70 degrees, a whole 10 degrees cooler outside than in my apartment. Bleh. I hope my apartment people can fix it. What else will go wrong next?????

Why?

Why in the world do I get into relationships that I know are not going to work? What do I mean by this, well the current person I am talking too is dating someone YIKES! So I either pick them far away from me, or when they have someone else. I think I know I am never gonna be with someone, so I am selecting people that I know I will never be with. Who knows, I am not going to stop talking to this person though because the company is nice :) we're actually talking right now.

So, exciting news Discovery had a successful launch! I watched the whole thing with baited breath, and oddly enough I was nervous. I think we Americans took for granted the space program, until something truly bad happens then we see just how complicated it can be. So they return in 12 more days, God be with them!

Nothing else exciting, Big Brother tonight everyone watch!

You'll never believe me....

I blocked MULLAH on Friday...lol He finally pissed me off for good!! So everyone well if anyone else reads this.... message MULLAH via AIM or AOL and give him hell. But make sure to copy and paste the convo into a comment box!!

Thanks!!

LONG WEEK!

Wow TGIF I never in my life wanted to see a Friday so bad as I did this week. What a long week it was I am glad it's over. I am so spent I am not doing a damn thing this weekend but relaxing. I had Jr High Camp all week, 29 campers from ages of 1st grade to 8th grade quite a variety, from 8am -- 11am. What made this so difficult is the experience levels were all different, but the lameass school wouldn't let me divide the sessions up accordingly, instead they let them choose UGH! I am also still teaching my adult class from 5-6, and this week 3 of the 5 days the heat index was over 100 degrees. So, I was outside all day long twice a day in 100 degree heat, joy right. I am not trying to disgust, but my showers were nasty when the sun screen would just slide off like oil bleh. Sorry for that visual. Anyway this was the best Jr High Camp I have ever ran the kids were soooo well behaved, and that makes it SO much easier. I had two adorable 2nd graders, and they were so good, I hope they keep playing. Luckily my adult class was rained out one night or I would probably even be more tired, don't you all feel sorry for me hehe :) Boy bad storms went thru last night luckily nothing too bad for us, but I believe it was pretty crazy night for nuts! Glad she is alright.

So, not only did I have tennis this week but my relatives from Georgia were in town for a few days, and that was crazy. I love my aunt Jan, my favorite relative, and she is one of those people that calls it how she sees it, and she pretty much called my Aunt Teresa a Bigot one night. Now it shocked everyone and of course an argument broke out with my mom trying to be peacemaker, but the bottom line is she is probably right. She constantly belittles gays and says they have no rights, and that's just sad. I find myself biting my tongue around them a lot, and it's hard. So, it was an eventful few days to say the least. They came out to the house and Jenn brought the boys and a whale pool and sprinkler what a hit that was!! So, I think all parties are glad for a break until the next visit.

Alright so you got nuts take on Big Brother so now it's my turn: by the way I flipping love this show.

Janelle: she is my favorite, she is hot and a lot smarter then people think, not sure how good she'll do since people see her as a threat, should be safe this week.

Kaysar: another favorite of mine, I was so glad he won HOH, I believe he could be the smartest in the game. Again just got off to a bad start, so we'll see.

James: I think James could win the whole thing, but he has to be smart about it. He is actually my second favorite, so I am rooting for him. Not sure how he and Sarah will do, especially when the pairs are revealed

Sarah: I like her too, and I believe she is doing the best thing in laying low and letting other people take the heat. She had the best line the other night "I want janelle in the game because she'll take people out that I want out but can't take" smart smart smart!

Rachel:I am not sure yet about Rachel, she came on too strong in my opinion winning the first HOH and the POV. We'll see.

Howie: He is great!! So funny, I am not sure how he'll last but to me they are really underestimating this guy. Can't believe he and Rachel are friends.

April: BLEH I hate that bitch, she is nasty and I hope she goes soon

Jennifer: She = a waste of space, but I do have a crush on her :) haha. She is being underestimated a little since she is just skating by. I am waiting to see how she'll play when she is forced to make decisions

Beau:He is okeh, but gets on my nerves, and he is friends with Ivette GAG

Ivette:two words WHITE TRASH!!! She is a loud mouth, and a bitch and I am keeping my fingers crossed that she will go this week.

Maggie: I am okeh with Maggie, but I agree with Nuts she might have an eye for eric. She is lucky to have a partner that has a lot of bad attention on himself.

Eric: I have never disliked a big brother player as much as I do him. He is an evil troll, who is probably not even a firefighter. He is so big on "i give my word it's my word" then he breaks the alliance he started so he is a hypocrite. I don't like him and want him out.

EVICTED Guests
Ashlea: didn't like her glad she is gone
Michael: liked him unfortunately it was he or janelle and I like both
I guarentee they are gonna let one of the evicted houseguest re-enter the game. Everyone keep watching Tues 9 thurs 8 Sat 8 on CBS

Can I just say I love Kelly Clarkson, I listen to breakaway all the time! good disc. I am out yo!

PS pics are up from the Kings Island trip need link let me know.

I LOVE Big Brother 6

Okay I'm addicted to this show. The only other seasons of Big Brother I watched were 4 and 5. I'm really into this one.

My take on the house guests:

Sarah: Seems kind of dependent on James
James: I don't think he will be faithful to Sarah
April: Kind of a bitch, seems kind of too old to be a soriety sister with Jennifer
Rachel: Seems pretty cool, can't believe she hangs out with Howie
Beau: I like him. He cracks me up.
Ivette: Sorry can't stand her, too ghetto latino for me
Michael: Sorry you didn't last much longer, good eye candy
Janelle: This is my favorite player thus far. She gives blondes a good name ;-)
Ashlea: Didn't get to know her that well, but must suck to be the first one voted off
Eric: Such a control freak midget - I hope he gets voted off next
Maggie: She is ugly and useless. She secretly is in love with Eric and wishes her man looked like a midget too
Kaysar: Can we say hottie? I hope he goes far and does play the game honestly
Jennifer: Don't know much about her.
Howie: I think he is secretly gay and in love with Beau. He has an annoying smile.

Lets see if these change by the end of the summer =)

Update on the friend with mental issues.....

I'm off work tomorrow!! w00t!! I have a doctor's appointment at like 11:30 am, so what is the point of coming into work for a couple hours and leaving, or coming in later? Soooo took the day off and the rest of my day off I'm going to spend in the pool. No not Nicole's pool, but my pool at my apartment complex. I guess it is rude of a long-term friend to invite themselves over to your house to go swimming.

On Friday I get an instant message from Nicole stating that she is going to her counselor today and wanted to know if I was willing to do a 3-way phone convo with them (phat's you and I are good with 3-way calling). So I was like sure, didn't mind. Then she proceeded to say that she couldn't help me figure out what is wrong with me - which kind of took me back b/c ummm I don't have problems! LoL

So they call me after 11am and she begins talking about why she couldn't be a good friend and listen to me for 5 mins to listen to what happened to me (my apartment situation). I guess packing to leave for TN is a little more important than your friend having something traumatic happen to them. She also got mad b/c I guess she called me when she got back from TN and I missed her call. I didn't intentionally miss it, I did miss it and didn't realize that she called...so I'm a horrible person for that. She also brought up the fact that I'm jealous she hangs out with my two friends/ex-roommates here and there. Ummm I don't care who you hang out with and it doesn't make me jealous b/c I have other friends too.

This is the one thing that blows my mind, threw me off, and COMPLETELY hurt my feelings-She said that I invited myself over to her house one day to go swimming and she didn't like that. Cara's take: I called her Saturday to see what she was doing and if wasn't busy if we could go swimming. I didn't say "hey i'm coming over for a swim, cya". If you're friends with someone for a very long time like ummm 8 years, you don't need an invite. I'm SOOO pissed still about that.

There are some other things she brought up which are like childish and I don't feel like typing the BS out. Some friend. I think the whole thing about her calling me from her counselor's office royally pissed me off. Even if we would talk again, I don't think I could be a close friend for her. She hurt me and I've never had a friend do that to me before.

Also, her aunt called me Saturday to help plan Nicole's bridal shower set for Aug 13 which I knew nothing about...guess I need to call her aunt back before I'm accused for ignoring her aunt!! What a crock.

Oh well, after my incident I learned who my true friends are. Hey Phats, I "think" I might come home this weekend....Hacienda sounds good.

Time to get LOUD, time to REPRESENT.........

Yes, yes we all know what time it is! So an action packed weekend on my side of things and instead of writing separate entries I thought I would write one big one for the whole weekend. Fun right? So Friday, was my only down day, I was home and it stormed the electricity flickered and I thought just peachy, but luckily we didn't lose it. I basically slept all day, and when I wasn't sleeping I was watching tv, sometimes it's just nice being lazy. So I knew I was playing in a tournament the next day, a tennis tournament, in the mixed doubles with Tricia. Well, around 7ish on Friday, calls me and says "I have strep" Naturally I say lets just drop out, I don't wanna risk you getting worse, and she is pregnant to begin with, but she insisted on at least trying. So, I went to bed not sure if I was playing or not. Crazy eh?

So, Saturday I wake up, still haven't heard from her, so I set out for KHS courts around 11, had to be there at 11:30 for a 1st round match at 11:45. She was there and looked fine, but I knew she had been sick you could see the puffs around her eyes. Alright we take the court to play these two High School kids and I wanted to win! I could tell during the warm up, we can win this thing easy the way they were hitting and thought good. Uhh someone forgot to tell them we were gonna win easy, they stayed right with us thru the first set and eventually tied it at 5 all! I am thinking you've gotta be kidding me, we were playing down to their level. Finally we won the set at 7-5 after 1 hr and 20 mins of play, the other mixed match had been done for a long time. So we started the second set a hell of a lot better, and cruised to a 6-2 win to take the match. Relief we didn't lose to someone who was not good. That put us in the semi finals vs the #1 seeds! Who ironically I had coached both it was weird playing them. So after a few hours of rest we were back on the courts ready to go again. This time we came out on fire, just not missing and cruised to a 6-1 set. I think both Tricia and I were shocked at this, and we realized alright we have a shot lets execute, and then it happened. My enegry just sank it went downhill fast. What people don't realize is on all these meds I hit a wall everyday and unfortunately it happened in the second set. We lost 3-6 so we went to a third. Everything was going great we switched up 3-2 and never won another game. so we lost 6-1, 3-6, 3-6, and Josh and Megan went on to win the tournament, congrats to them! Looking back I had fun, I was very sore, and Tricia sometimes hogged the ball a little too much for my liking, but I would play with her again.

On to Sunday, the big Kings Island trip woot! So we loaded the family truckster, mom, dad, and myself at 7:30am headed to Jenn's and picked up Jenn(my sister) Luke(brother in law) and Tate and Trey(2 yr old nephews). On the drive there I put my headphones on, and slept listening to Rascal Flatts, it made it a short quick trip for me. The weather was iffy overcast, but no rain! When we got in the gate we planned that Luke and I would go ride the roller coasters, and the rest would go to Hannah Barbara Land/Nick Central. This was great, there were NO lines whatsoever, almost everything was walk on. Luke, and I rode "son of beast, top gun, Drop Zone, Racer forwards and backwards" all before we had to meet up with them. Lets just say Son of beast should be called "son of a bitch that hurts" beat the living crap out of us. Top gun was fun but not really thrilling, which brings me to my favorite ride in the park, Drop Zone. It unfortunately was the longest line, or we would have ridden again. Luke was actually freaking out on the way up, for those of you who don't know it's a GIANT free fall ride falling from 300 feet. It's a blast and they so tease you at the top holding you there, great ride. The racers both ways beat the hell out of me too, bleh so so rough. So, we all ate together then headed for HBL to watch the tykes enjoy some rides, they were not only so cute but so well behaved all day. They LOVED the fake cars you drive. After this Luke and I headed for my other favorite ride "the beast!" I love this one, and it seemed to be running faster, and smoother a great combination. Although it's so much more fun to ride at night, it was still a blast. Then it was off to Vortex, one of the best first hills of any coaster out there, it was nice going into the first loop heading straight for the sun bleh. Last rides of the trip were racer forwards/backwards one more time each. To my suprise it was much smoother this time, so much fun. We ended our funfillled family trip by watching the Nick parade with all the nick characters. I kid you not the little girl next to us when Sponge Bob came by said "I LOVE YOU SPONGE BOB" and was jumping up and down excitedly. I have to give PKI their props, it was very clean and friendly good job crew!

As for the family, mom was mom. I love my mother but oh my god, needs to chill out! I think it's probably a good thing I wasn't around her much, when it comes to the twins so so paranoid! She needs to learn to relax a little and let Jenn and Luke take care of it, that will never happen. The boys were pretty much angels, no fits or anything which is a LOT for 2 yr olds. I believe they had fun but you never can tell when they are that age. Jenn and Luke are fun to be around, cool to hang with, Luke thanks again for all the rides buddy :) glad you married my sister haha. I will post pictures as soon as I get them developed. By the way never got rained on WOOT!

So, that was my weekend pretty busy, I am exhausted and have places on my body that are sore that I wasn't sure I had. This week will be busy, have camp this week, still teaching at night and Jan, Lisa, and Shelby are here. I will try to keep writing, some things are going on that I want to write about but probably shouldn't. I think some garbage needs dumped, for instance mullah needs to go hahahaha :) he is a jerkwad

Holla atcha boy.

Excitment on the drive!!

So, I must write about the events that took place late last night and then this morning, because I finally have something exciting to write about. I went to bed at 2am but I couldn't sleep, as usual being an insomniac sucks, so I was watching nick at nite hell ya and around 2:45am I heard a LOUD BOOM! It sounded like a transformer blowing, and quite frankly freaked me out. So I was looking out my window but I didn't see anything, I thought I better check out front to make sure the house was not on fire. So, I looked out the front windows and low and behold a red cavalier was slowly, like at a snail's pace, backing down our street. Now, I get a little worried and I shut the curtains before they could see, and then when out of sight I looked again. Now I really couldn't sleep because so many theories were going thru my head, but I eventually did doze off thank goodness. Fast Forwarded to the next morning, I was heading out to hit some tennis balls with Tricia, and I open the door and a police car was outside of our house. He was like "do your neighbors work midnights" I said no, you might have to knock on the inside door for them to hear. I had to leave because I was running late to begin with, and when I got back I found out the happs. evidently a car came off the highway WAY behind the house, ran into the garage of the people that live behind us, took off their siding and a good chunk of it, kept coming towards our house came within inches of nailing it. Then drove between our house and our neighbors, coming within inches of nailing my car(my poor baby!) and that is when I saw it backing up. The car was then abandoned on our street. More than likely drunk, and with the fair in town could have been a carney. The police assured us "we'll find them!" that made me chuckle a little getting assurance from the barney fife brigade. So, finally something exciting to write about woot!

Looks like the Kings Island trip is on for Sunday, anyone living in OH tell me what the weather is going to be, because if it's bad I am sure we will ppd again hahaha :) I am out yo!

FINALLY!

I got my insurance paperwork in the mail last night!!!! So now I have to get those filled out and mail out ASAP so I can get some $$ to get some new things!!

PS Mullah messaged me today

PPD.

So, our kings island family trip is being ppd. due to Hurricane Dennis, better to go when we won't need a boat to get around the park. Looking like Friday or Sunday! Crowds will be worse but like I said I don't particularly wanna swim to each ride.

I finished countdown last night, great book, great ending, hoping she writes more about Jane in the future! I am not sure what book I am going to start next, I think I will take some time off then read my new Koontz book.

That's all for today. Hopefully we'll be going to Schererville sometime Cara, but Michigan City would be fun too! :)

Case of the Mondays

*yawn* is it 5 pm yet??? I really don't feel like doing any work today, but what is new. I hope to receive my insurance paperwork in the mail today...if not I'll be making a special trip to American Family to kick Howard's ass!

I had a pretty decent weekend..just pretty relaxing AKA boring. Friday night (and I must be getting old) I didn't do a damn thing! Just lounged and watched some TV. Saturday I did get up and go work out and took my laundry (since my washer broke) and did three loads of laundry, but then didn't do anything else. I did go and hang out with Shawna and Amber (old roomies) and we watched that movie The White Noise....VERY GOOD!!! It freaked me out! Then Sunday I went to the Hancock Co 4H Fair...we watched the parade at 3pm and then hung out at the fair for a bit....there are pictures on the link to your right.

Well I better get back to work I guess. Hey Phats...we should go to Michigan City after school starts!!

Ten Things I Hate

1. Working on Fridays

2. Friends with mental problems

3. Having your apartment/house broken into

4. Friends with mental problems

5. Stupid insurance adjusters (still waiting on my paperwork)

6. Friends with mental problems

7. Being single

8. Friends with mental problems

9. My place of employment not paying for parking

10. Friends with mental problems

Yeah so I'm still waiting to receive my paperwork from Howard, my American Family insurance adjuster. I say or well he sounds around 80 flippn years old. He left my apartment number and drive off the paperwork he mailed on 6/30!! Hello Howard.....I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING IN MY APARTMENT!!! HELP ME OUT HERE. Only me.

So last week I called Nicole and asked if I could spend the night with her and Jason (Thursday). She asked why and so I proceeded to tell her about my experience. She states "oh we are leaving for TN tonight" and changes the subject!!!! I thought this was my best friend, as least she could ask if I was okay or offer me her house while she was gone. My friend Deb, the first thing out of her mouth "you want my house, I'll be gone, but you can stay there". All my other friends offered me a place to stay and then would call and check up on me. So the other day this week she messages me on AIM and of course I was a little not talkative (not my normal self) and so today she was like "i dont have to find out what is wrong with you and you have my number to call me when you're ready to talk". Which was kind of shitty...so of course I emailed her and let her know about this.

Yeah she has problems and I'm always there for her. Hell I take off work and pick her up, take her to her doctor's appointments and does she offer to give me gas money or even buy my lunch!?!!??! NO...now that is getting old. Oh well, I'm sure it will fly over, and if not, oh well.

I can't WAIT to get a check from my insurance company so I can buy a new laptop!! But I need paperwork, HOWARD, in order to do that!!

Everyone who reads this...have a great weekend!!

Horrific.

As most of you know, and if you don't you must be living in a cloud, another terrorist attack happened today in London, and this just sickens me! My heart personally goes out to all those touched by this tragedy over there, whether family, injured or deceased. It makes you truly realize how ugly this world can be sometimes, and I for one hope it stops soon. Keep this people in your thoughts and prayers!

It's really ironic I was going to write about a recent television show I watched of MTV's True Life Documentaries. They did one on "True Life: I am home from Iraq" it was very touching and real, but it all made me wonder seeing this 20 something kids pledge themselves to such a process I can't even imagine. They are willing to give their life if need be to protect our country, it just amazes me. I have friends in the Air Force, Army, and Coast Guard and they all say the same thing, "it's my duty!" and none of them have any fear. My one friend in the army will be going to Iraq soon, he just found out, and isn't phased a bit. I couldn't do it, I can tell you that right now. Hopefully an end to this war will be soon.

Alright so how about some much less heavy topics, like TV, Big Brother 6 started tonight WOOT! I love this show so much that I even auditioned once can you believe that!? The tape was hella funny. Anyway it started tonight it's going to be really good, good cast of characters, I already don't like Eric the firefighter, too damn paranoid! My summer addiction fix is here. I also watched "that 70's house" on MTV oh my gosh I loved it! Brief overview like 16 kids are in a house and are told nothing but it's a game, and they have to dress, speak, and all that jazz like they are in the 70's if they don't they can get eliminated. It was groovy baby. Lets, see the fair starts monday, now when I was in HS I loved going to the fair, not so anymore. I don't like seeing people I went to HS with, and usually the ones I really don't wanna see are the ones I do see, go figure. I have gotten very good at the duck and weave so I can avoid conversations, or sometimes I just act like I don't see them. How rude is that?! haha but seriously if you went to HS with these kids you would do the same thing. I will go one night though, I want to get that great fudge, and lets not forget the deep fried oreo! yummmmmyyy! :)

Well, I am going to go eat my dinner now. Have a good one everyone, remember to keep the brits in your prayers.

Bleh @ work....

Back at work after a long, much needed weekend. I had a pretty good holiday weekend. My plans were initially to go to the lake up in Michigan, but after my theft incident, I decided to stick around and get things in my apartment clean and organized.

Friday night, my work mom called me .. "I have five tv's at my house, come and pick one up!" I was sooooo excited to get a tv you do not understand!! Hey it is only a 13" tv, but it will do until I get my insurance money to get me a new tv. Saturday my sister and I painted my living room--it looks sooooo nice. Then Sunday I went to Best Buy to price some new electronics. TVs are cheaper than I thought. However, my laptop went up in price =( Oh well.....

The Fourth we went downtown to the fire works. We had an awesome view!! Just parked here on campus at IUPUI and found a lawn which several other people had the same idea. Just perfect the view and everything!! Great evening. Phats sounds like he had a good weekend also, anytime there is a pool involved=great times. That is cute your nephew is a swimmer and is only two...Hopefully he becomes a swimmer when he gets into high school!! I miss my swimming days!!!

I better get back to work...I have an interview @ 11am over at Methodist...Wish me luck!!

Kids......

HAPPY 4th OF JULY!!

So, we celebrated by hanging out as a family, my sister, brother in law, 3 nephews, mom, and dad well and me. They all came over and we went swimming, it was very hot, and the water was GREAT! Let me first just say that I am almost convinced my nephew Trey is part fish! He is two years old, and he can swim underwear!!! He holds his breath and everything, I couldn't believe how good he was, he loves the water. He might be our olympian! Tate did well too, but isn't as convinced of going under like Trey is, I am still amazed at Trey. I would love for them to be like the Bryan Twins, the world #2 doubles team in tennis, and then I can be their coach and travel the world with them, how awesome would that be! Wimbledon here I come!! We also celebrated Jenn's birthday today, I gave her, her gifts I thinks he liked them. It was fun but I see why mom and dad are so exhausted after helping with them for a day.

Wimbledon wrap up, Venus defeated my girl Lindsey to win the womens final 9-7 in the third in one of the greatest matches ever. I felt so bad for Lindsey it was so close, but so far away. Roger Federer dominated Andy Roddick once again to win the mens title YAY! :) i don't like Roddick. Now gear up for the summer circuit in the states then the US open my other favorite major!

Happy 4th everyone have a safe holiday.

Lessons...

Yeah my apartment got broken into this week. *sigh* And yes he took everything (laptop, dvd player, 27" TV, dvd's, cds, digital camera, and mp3 player). This is the second year I have lived on my own and he also took my sense of safety. So the girl that lives above me saw the guy, but didn't think anything of him b/c he just had a dvd player in his hands and talked to her. Can you believe he talked to her!! I'm even more mad at the butthole!!!

I have lived down in this city for maybe 6 years and love it and was never afraid of anything or anyone. So I hope and I know this won't happen, I hope the cops find him so I can kick his ass.

So my lesson to the millions who read this blog is.... write down every serial number of any electronics and make a library of your dvds/cds-so the cops can check the pawn shops for the items!! I'm glad I have renter's insurance!!! I can get some nice new things now!!

Ramblings.........

Well, Hello again!
Happy almost 4th of July, it's a holiday weekend, and that means a 4 day weekend for yours truly! I am off today, so I got to sleep in HELL YA! I love sleeping, I love taking naps, so sleep is good for me.

So, latest news, I talked to jennybob last night on IM. I think things are Okeh but I am not really sure. I was nervous to send her a msg, how lame is that?? I asked her what my punishment was she said no worries or something like it and we moved on. She did talk about going to the rascal flatts concert, but she wants to camp. I am pausing for a moment for those who know me so they can get the laughter out of their system. She showed me some pictures from the weekend too, of her and ryan looked happy. I hope I am wrong about him, I really want to be wrong about him. I didn't ask what weekend she wants Cara and I to come, hopefully she still does haha :) if not cara and I are gonna party hard somewhere else. I am sure the blog will be a great read after that trip! Speaking of Cara her place got broken into!! Scary stuff eh? Luckily she wasn't home at the time, I would freak out.

I have so much swimming around in my head all the time that I wish there were someone I could talk too. I tell Cara everything, I think she might be the only person in my life that knows every single detail about me. I think it's cuz I trust her, and I have known her for so long. Not to mention she cracks my shit up and makes me laugh haha, remember the tonya/kim prank! HAHAHAHAHAHA that one still makes me laugh til I am crying classic! I just wish sometimes I had someone in my family I could tell things too and it would be truly confidential and not all over the damn family within 1 hr after I have told someone. Oh well, I am use to it by now, aint nothing gonna break my stride I gotta keep on moving HA!

More on cara, we are on a daily basis exposing Mullah, her online friend for what he really is a LIAR! I really think she needs to move on, she totally deserves someone better, maybe with an australian accent. Any guys out there that read this and wanna date a fun girl like Cara leave a comment or send an email. Hey speaking of cool girls, Design Goddess wrote about yours truly on her blog, I can't believe for a second she was ever thought of as uncool! I will be visiting her blog, because it's one of them I like to read :) thanks for the entertainment. I need to put hers on my links list! I will get right on that.

Well, I am done for a bit, I can't believe it's July already, this is my busiest month, but I will try and keep blogging away!

Later Days
