- Hey, did you know that the Sammon house has been undergoing construction since January?  Well, I did...mostly because I live here.  Anyway, the kitchen/family room is done and I just spent a lovely sunday here at home.  I love this house.  My grandparents' good vibes seem to have never left it.  Grad party come August.  Come out and play.

Note to self:  when attending music festivals in the future, be sure to attend said festivals with a group of people rather than one person.

Lame day.

That's enough.

I got arrested last  Saturday

...for an expired license...in South Elgin.  They cuffed me, searched my car, and hauled me to the slamma' where I had my mug shots taken.  The kind police officer waved the standard $100 bond and got me in and out of there in ten minutes.  Dree's sister picked me up (as I was on the way to Dreebie's grad bash).  Many ( Read more... )

I'm at work today.  I came in because we thought it might be busy...not so much.  I'm bored.  The new job is going well.  I really just do whatever they need me to and it's definitely more substantial than Coach.  It also flies by.  There's a lot more freedom when you have your own desk, pick your own lunch and are dealing with substantial things.  ( Read more... )

Every few months a trashy pop song comes along and steals my heart.  Now, I think it's a given that Avril's "Girlfriend" is pop gold and everyone can't help but imagine what it would be like to re-make that music video into something  much sassier (and funnier and cuter…)

....BUT I'm not here to talk about that.  I'm here to talk about Rihanna's " ( Read more... )

Unbeknownst to many of you, I often do not take my own advice.

Seriously.

(Or maybe y'all did know that...)

For the last few days, whenever I sign on facebook the feed announces that someone is now in a relationship and someone else has posted pictures of their European trip.  Mind you, these are all different someones.  The World Wide Web is reminding me that I'm single and that I am not lucky enough to bounce around Europe.  Maybe I'm reading into ( Read more... )

Good News :)

- I got a call from Lily Talent Agencie and we're meeting on July 11th (far away, I know, but time to prepare... )

So, that's good news, right?  I mean, one step at a time...we'll see what happens.  It feels good, nonetheless.
