Last night I got really bored and decided to look up my family history/lineage online. I found out a bunch of stuff I didn't know, especially after researching all the immigration records. Jahne, my last name, is German even though I have a feeling that the pronunciation and spelling were changed. My maternal grandmother's maiden name is Kearns ( Read more... )

So I just bought tickets to see Lifetime and I am absolutely freaking ecstatic! I miss every damn reunion show that rolls around, and this will be the year in which that trend will come to a screeching halt. Now I'm waiting for midnight so I can get Gorilla Biscuits tickets. With any luck I'll be seeing BANE with Matt in a couple weeks, and I ( Read more... )

1) The new American Express commercial with Wes Anderson in it. Holy crap. It's so great that it's almost worth paying the 9 bucks just to see it and then walking out of whatever movie you are planning on seeing ( Read more... )

I met my dog-sitting charges tonight. All 7 of them!!!! A lady I work with is going on vacation for a week in July and I will be staying at her house, with a loaded fridge, digital cable, and 7 adorable dogs! All I have to do is feed them and let them out. Talk about easy money! Nobody has "lasted the week" with them because they aren't used ( Read more... )

I cleaned stalls every day after school, all day Saturday and Sunday, and every day of every school vacation, just so I could board my horse and be able to take ( Read more... )

So apparently cops in South Windsor have nothing better to do than pull people over for no reason. I have a pretty good internal radar detector and usually can sense when a cop is around, and tonight I sensed one heading back home towards Buckland Street. Im driving the speed limit and he just keeps following, and following, and following some ( Read more... )

So I decided to start updating my livejournal again, because I agree with Karen that it's easier to read my friends' entries all in a line than subscribing to blogs on myspace. I don't subscribe to anybody's blog, but I am doing this for the benefit of my CCSU friends and friends who use LJ on a regular basis ( Read more... )
