im out.

Well, I am headin out of here! I leave in the morning for a lovely 8 day trip on the east coat. I fly into Boston tomorrow and spend a couple days in Massachusetts with my mom and sister, and Wednesday morning we shall make our way down to Washington D.C. to spend Thanksgiving with my family. I am incredible excited for this little getaway - however I am getting anxiety about having to take Nash on his journey to live with mom in Massachusetts. I just tried cramming him into his little travel case I bought at Wal-mart the other day and that wasn't going over so well. He may not even fit very well - and he has never been in a kennel in his entire life. I have a feeling this isn't going to work... uh oh..


Regardless, I cannot wait to be on the east coast, visit DC again and take tons of pictures of all the incredible sights. Perhaps I shall even have some spare time to sit in my sweats by a fireplace and really do some legit updating of this blog... :)

my deepest desires.

Right now, I am feelin some pretty deep desires brewing throughout my being.


The first of these great and marvelous desires is the desire to see Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 1.








I am currently re-reading the final book of this glorious 7 book series and I cannot get enough of it. In case you were unaware, I am obsessed with quite a few things...you have learned that I love Minnie Mouse, and I am sure you know I love brownies...and now you know that I love Harry Potter. I love Harry Potter and I am NOT ashamed of it. I am a devout fan and I will confess something to you right now...I dressed up for one of the midnight book release parties at Barnes and Noble. Accept me, please...?


In this moment, I ask one thing of you, whoever you are reading my blog...watch this: 




You guys, I don't think you understand it. I mean I get soo excited when I watch that trailer. I think I may even get a little bit of anxiety over it because it is just so intense. Do you have any idea what is going on here in the 7th movie?! 


Harry is going to find horcruxes so he can finally defeat Voldemort!! He is on a quest to free the wizarding world of this evil evil monster!!


Okay, wow. Sorry, I need to calm down a little bit. Just had to get all that off of my chest.... and yes. I plan to see this movie at midnight in the IMAX.

punkins.

I asbolutely love love love Halloween. It is one of my favorite holidays...right up there with Thanksgiving, 4th of July, and of course, Christmas. So basically, I love all the holidays. :)

Some things that get me super pumped about Halloween are costumes and pumpkin carving. Today, I shall focus on the pumpkin carving

Willy and I went to a quaint little pumpkin patch down the road from my house at a little church situation. There were tons of pumpkins in all shapes and sizes, and it was tough to make a choice. However, we eventually found our dream pumpkins...and of course as we were paying I had to throw in an extra dollar to snag this little guy...

He is just so precious...

At first I was struggling with what to carve on my pumpkin...Willy knew pretty quick what he wanted to do, and I am ashamed to admit I didn't come up with my idea as quickly as I should have. However, it came to me - Minnie Mouse. Sadly, there was no printer so we were forced to test our skills and relied on google to provide us with our images. From there, we sketched them onto some paper and went from there... 


And here is my little Minnie...

All lit up...with a bath and body works candle...

Willy is by far the most devout Seattle Supersonics fan in the world...this whole layout was pretty tricky - and he definitely was "too strong" for our cheap tools because by the end of the night they were all broken. 


Pumpkin carving is just so fun - despite the nasty pumpkin smell and all the slimey goop and seeds you have to dig out of the pumpkins... It is all soooo worth it when you turn out the lights and light up your pumpkins and see that they look this goooood babayyy...


Happy Halloween!

requests or whatever you call em.

I would like to meet baby Logan soon...please hurry and come. We are all so anxious....especially me.

If somebody could please bring me 63 more boxes of those chocolates from Tiff and Jay's wedding, I would really appreciate that.

Homework, please stop being so lame. You are so tedious and time consuming and I just don't want to spend time with you anymore.

Apartment - please find yourself. I do not want to go hunting for you one single bit.

Also, house - please pack yourself.

Mother nature, please cool this stupid state down and let summer end and fall begin. I am sick of sweating all the time.

Groceries, go buy yourself.

Alright, that is enough for now.

Toodles.

duty, call of.

I discovered a new passion of mine -Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

Okay, I don't really enjoy playing Call of Duty...but I like to watch it being played. And more importantly, I enjoy wearing the headphones while Willy plays.

Why do I enjoy wearing those uncomfortable little headphones?! 


Let me tell you...
 - People get so incredibly angry when they get killed or lose. Call me crazy, but I think people shouting obscenities and ridiculous things is hilarious.
 - Willy is really good at it, so they all think they are getting beat by me - a girl.
 - For some reason, they think I am the hottest thing since Pam Anderson because I am supposedly really really bomb at this ridiculous video game.
 - A little too often than I expected, we came across what I liked to call a "Justin Beiber" player. This entails a boy probably about the age of 12 that thinks he is the sexiest and best thing that ever happened to the world. Those little guys say things they should not be saying at that young age...and they are a little bit mean and hurtful.
 - One guy started calling me "sweetheart" and "baby cakes".
 - That same guy proceeded to ask me if I had a phone..then asked for my number...so he could send me a picture of himself. ....don't worry! I didn't give it to him...sheesh. 
 - By the end of the night, Willy had about 8 friend requests and 2 messages from other Call of Duty player boys.

And the number one reason...
- Part of the magic of those headphones is they also have a little microphone...which means I can talk to them as well. And ya, maybe some of that talking included telling them how much they suck when they lost and how they were big babies because they were getting beat by a girl. And ya, maybe my words got them a little riled up and made things that much more entertaining for me...it is what it is! :)


***Disclaimer - Call of Duty is not for the sensitive or easily hurt person. Call of Duty players may have extremely foul mouths and say ridiculous things. Only play Call of Duty Live via XBOX if you can handle such treatment.

i am happy.

I met with my advisor today - I am right on track to graduate in December.


I was in San Diego a couple weeks ago.


The color of the nail polish on my hands right now is purple



Christina and Blythe were in Arizona last week.


I work with one of my best friends...Kristin Breinholt...so its guaranteed I see her at least twice a week.


I went to Bahama Bucks tonight...and there was no sugar, calories or carbs in my yummy treat. 


Yogurtland currently has a blood orange tart flavor right now...to die for.
