i just got home and hung up my sweater in the closet.  i felt like mr. rogers.  i miss that show, it came on right before nap time and had all those creepy puppets.  that's all.  if anyone knows where i can get it on dvd let me know, that would rock.  i'd like to see them now that i'm an adult.  not too sure if they will entertain me as much, but i ( Read more... )

jon's parents were up here for the past few days, they left yesterday morning bright and early.  we did the normal things with them, eating out, hanging out, taking the dog to the river.  you shoulda seen it.  their dog, lilly, is soooo spoiled.  she gets treated more like a human than a dog.  no, they don't let her on the furniture or anything ( Read more... )

    so i finally bought my first piece of "grown up" luggage for the amsterdam trip (which is only *3* weeks away!) but it was too boring.  Everyone has black luggage and i didn't much like the plain-ness of it anyway so i made my first stencil and stenciled a white skull and crossbones (of course) on it.  it came out pretty well, if i do say so ( Read more... )

    sooo, the trip to the (evil) oc was successful, in that no one died.  we were able to leave friday night after work, putting us at jon's mom's house around 6:30ish in the am (did you know there WAS a 6:30 am?) so we went directly to bed. 
    saturday was for hanging out with our mom(s) and dad. sadly, my gramma and grampa were in virginia with ( Read more... )

do you?  i love it when other people notice the weight ive lost.  its one thing for me to feel my pants all loose and whatnot but its another thing when others notice too.  i love walking into jon's work and some of the girls saying "ooooh you lost weight" "you look thinner!"  and such.  it just brightens my day.  i get to a point where i feel like ( Read more... )

soooooo, does anyone know dutch?  jon's parents called us on monday to ask if we wanted to go on a 2 week vacation, 3 days in new york and the rest of the time in amsterdam!  i know they speak english there too but i dont like going places if i dont know at least some of the language.  oh well, at least i speak a little german.  jon and i have not ( Read more... )

so today makes the 5th straight day of rain.  when it does stop its only for about half an hour so everything is all mushy and run-offy up here.  and the river is swollen and running pretty quickly.  i was telling my friend that he should come to our house to drink and then he can just jump into the river (that is right down the road from our house ( Read more... )

so i finally did it, i got my hair cut.  its just about to my shoulders and i have bangs!  i thought it would make me look younger but at this length it makes me look my actual age!  yay, now maybe people will stop asking me if im old enough to work behind the bar!  the only bad thing is that i dont own a blow dryer so i still have to train my ( Read more... )

so today is superbowl sunday and i got all psyched up and went to work thinking it would be slamed since we have 2 hdtvs at the bar.  but no, once the game started everyone ordered pitchers of beer and never got up again.  so i stood around doing nothing.  but my manager saw my eye that is all red from wearing my contacts too much (and too long) ( Read more... )

so saturday was a painful day for me. i woke up early and went to dance class with jojo and that was fun but after my whole body felt like it was gonna fall apart. saturday night i went to work as a busser like usual but one of the bartenders was "sick" (i question how sick she was) and so the barback moved up to bartender and i had to stay as ( Read more... )
