The end of my weekend

So yesterday my friend wanted to go out to our local lake. Which to normal people isn't really a lake just like a really big pond.

Anyway I said yes even though I wasn't exactly feeling the greatest but I figured I might was well get out and soak up some sun while I can.

I took some Tylenol, put on my swimsuit, and headed for the beach.

We got there and there were only a few people there which is always good. (More room for us)

We had brought my friend, Brenna's, cousins and little sister. And we invited a few friends out.

After tanning for a little bit then going into the water for a little swim. We went over to the dock, where people fish, to watch Brenna's cousins to make sure no one drowned or something.

I sat down and was soaking my feet and getting the sand off. I stood up and watch them push each other in. I made the comment I didn't want to be pushed in. So we stood there and talked. I had my back turned and Brenna felt the need to run up behind me and push me in.

I had my hand on a pole that holds the dock in place. And as I had stated earlier that I didn't want to be pushed in, I held onto the pole for dear life.

I was already close to the shallow end even when I was standing on the dock.

Needless to say I ended up landing on some rocks. (Owww)

So as soon as I get out of the water I realize my knee hurts a little bit, I look down to a trail of blood running down my leg. (O great, now I don't feel good because apparently I developed a thing where I don't like blood.)







So I walk to the car with my vision not at its fullest because Ive become light headed. And I call my father because he's an EMT and I trust his judgement.

He thinks I should at least go to the ER so I can get a tetanus shot since I don't remember the last time I had one. And since you never know whats in that water I really wanted one.

I have Shane, my sisters boyfriend, come to the lake to bring me some gauze and take me to the ER.

I get to the ER and meet up with my mom and dad. We go in and I get to go get some stitches in my knee. First time for stitches for me. But the doc was nice enough to numb me up twice. I couldn't feel anything. And he kept saying he was sorry if he hurt me.


So he prescribed me some antibiotics but no pain killers. And I wish he would have after the numbing stuff wore off.

Only a couple days on antibiotics and 12 days with the stitches in and I should be back to normal.

The fun doesnt stop there.

During the weekend after work one night I couldn't find anything to do and I was feeling pretty down about it.

Anyway I decided I was hungry, like a lion, and wanted to make me some food.

Now I wasn't super hungry because I ate some food before work but anyways.

I decided on a couple eggs. (Good choice Lindsey, *pat myself on the back*, they were really good in the end.)

So I got through with my first egg. Success! Then right as I'm putting my first egg on the plate in the corner of my eye I see something moving.

I had set the other egg on our microwave cart to be closer to the stove so I wouldn't have to move around alot and could just reach over and grab it. (Bad Idea)

The next thing I know as I'm turning my head I watch as it falls to the ground. (Great, just what I needed)

So now the first egg is starting to get cold while I have to clean up the second egg off the floor, while yelling at little man to stay out of the kitchen because I didn't want him to eat it.

So got the mess cleaned up and its back to the stove to make a second egg. And they did end up tasting really good.
Although the good thing is I now know which way our kitchen floor slants.

Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies.

So the newspaper my parents get has a section where they put a recipe or two for that day.

One day this one caught my eye.

As you can tell from the title of the post that they are Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies.

Its pretty simple actually.

Your suppose to get a box of brownie mix and make as directed.







Then you microwave about a 1/4 cup peanut butter until melted.

After you've put the brownie mix in the pan, you pour the peanut butter over the brownies and swirl it around.






Then you bake the brownies as directed on box.


And since I cant just give you guys some random recipe without trying it myself. Of course I had to eat one for 'testing purposes'. There not bad but their not roll-around-on-the-floor-orgasm brownies. I honestly think I used to much peanut butter because I didn't measure it out like I was suppose to I kind of guessed at it.


O well. Don't worry next time Ill give you guys a really good recipe, promise!

Im on a boat... Or maybe just crashing into one.

Ok first I just want to say that I really don't like the song, I'm On A Boat. But it seemed to go with this blog post.

I know its been a couple days since Ive blogged about anything but Ive been busy, and I would like to once again apologize for that.

Well what has happened since the last time I blogged.....

Some day last week Ashley, my roommate, showed me a picture of what my friend decided to do to her car.

I'm going to give you some detail and you can make your own decision.

She wasn't texting (so she say), it was in the afternoon so it wasn't dark in any way shape or form, and she was completely sober because she was on her way home from school.

Now apparently she decided it would be a good idea to crash her car into a non-moving boat that was not hooked to a car and was parked in the owners driveway.

Now you tell me if that doesn't sound a little odd to you?

Not to mention the only time that she has a probably driving is when she is texting because she has her phone in her lap and doesn't look up every once in awhile to make sure shes still in her lane.

The reason why I'm being a little mean is because hasn't really told anyone what really happened.

And don't start freaking out when you see the picture because all she did was sprain her wrist. And the boat is ok!

Hey sorry to keep you waiting

Ive been pretty busy the past couple days and have had some crazy stuff happen. And today seems to be another one of those days.

So your going to have to wait a little while longer, for those that take the time to read my blog, until I'm able to sit down for 5 minutes at a time to tell you whats been going on.

Sorry....(Man I miss this game)

Am I not turtle enough for the turtle club?

Not only is that a great movie (The Master of Disguise) but it also goes along with today's blog.
Last night Ashley's mom rescued a small turtle from the highway while at work. She decided that Ashley and my self's home would be good for it.
She brought it to the house around midnight once she got back into town from work. He arrived in a box and she had bought it some lettuce to munch on.
He now is living in our bathtub until we are able to get him a better home.
We haven't named him and were not even sure that he is a he.
This is my first time owning a turtle, even though Mikey and Shane have two and my sister, Ashley's, boyfriend, Andrew, has a tortoise.
Any ideas for a good name?

Last night was a pain in my side.

I worked, of course, last night at the bar. It was slow and my favorite regulars didn't come in.
Anyway I got home, not long before Ashley left for work.
I was comfy on the couch in a pretty decent mood (minus the anger towards Daniel) writing to my pen pals.
Then I received a call from Ashley asking me for a favor. Of course I hate when she asks me that, because I'm probably not going to want to do it but end up doing it because there's no one else to do it. She had left her bank card on the table and she doesn't carry cash. Not to mention she buys food during her shift at work so she needed it.
I agreed, sadly and angrily to do it. Knowing that it was going to take time out of my night when I was the most productive.
As I started my trip to where she works I was still arguing with Daniel, over something that didn't need to be argued and I apologized this morning for it. So not only was I sad and upset about that but I was also angry because I had to do Ashley her favor.
You know with all the favors Ive done her, she is going to have to do something really big to make up for all of it.
Anyway. Not only was I on a country highway but I also had to keep my eyes open for deer that might be in the ditches plotting to make an attack on my car.
Then when I was a little less than half way there it started to rain. Not to bad at first but then it started to down pour and I could only see a few feet in front of me slowing me dramatically in my quest to make it there safely.
I finally made it. But the rain hadn't let up and I wanted to get home and be comfy again. So at my slower that a grandma driving pace, I made my way back to my comfy couch.
And during my long drive I had time to calm down and allow myself to be in a better mood when I arrived home.

Breaking Dawn

Synopsis
BREAKING DAWN, the hotly anticipated fourth and final book in the bestselling crossover teen vampire series Twilight, wraps up some very important questions in the gripping and wildly romantic story of Bella Swan. Split into three sections, one of which is narrated by werewolf Jacob Black, the story opens with Bella driving along, thinking about her impending wedding to Edward. Although it seems that she's about to get exactly what she wants, Bella has no idea what lays in store for her: a near-death transformation, an all-out vampire war, and many painfully divided loyalties.

Well I finally finished the Twilight saga. I think the beginning was rushed. And I'm not really sure I liked the ending I cant really say to much because I don't want to ruin anything. But the middle of the book I thought was pretty good.


I have decided that I like reading the book before watching the movie, otherwise I know whats going to happen in the book.

Bar stories (caught up)

So I have a few interesting bar stories that I feel need to be posted for everyone elses entertainment.

The first one involves one of my regulars. He keeps trying to buy me a drink while I'm working. I choose not to have one because A) I'm only 20, B) My boss knows how old I am, and C) I don't want to risk my job because they want to buy me a drink. Me denying him doesn't stop him it only slows him down for the night. Anyway, since Ive been turning him down he thinks that I don't drink at all. Then he came to the conclusion that I am an innocent girl. Then he suggested that maybe because I'm so innocent I need to join a convent. I guess it couldn't hurt. They take you in and keep you clothed and fed.



The second involves the same regular (you can see a pattern). He had noticed one of my tattoos because when I was reaching for something my shirt came up slightly and he saw it. He mentioned it and then we got on the topic of my tattoos. How many I have? Where are they? Stuff like that, the usual. Then he asked if I had a mouse tattooed down there, because what eats mice? Of course I don't. He was a little disappointed. But then he suggested that I get it.



The last story isn't really a story but a recap of Friday night. Friday night was of course taco night. So our kitchen help, Brett, was there. And he was flirting a little even though he has a girlfriend, but it was just something that kept the night entertaining. And my regulars came in as usual. At the end of the night though my boss decided to would be a good idea to scare the crap out of me. He explained that he had sold the bar. Luckily the guy that bought the bar is going to keep the bar as is and not change it into a completely different business. He said that the new guy might hire me on. (Fingers crossed) He explained that their going to be having a meeting about it some time soon in the future.
*Note: Picture found through yahoo.

My cars twin?

A few mornings ago my father called me out of no where and asked where I was going.
Of course confused from his question and slightly still asleep I asked unsure what he was talking about.
To my question he replied that I had just passed him.
Still confused I told him I didn't know what he was talking about because I was at home sleeping.
He explained then that my car or what looked like my car just passed him.
That woke me up the rest of the way making me think that my car had been stolen.
I went straight to the front door with my phone still on the call with my father.
I looked at the door and luckily my car was sitting in my driveway.
After I went back to sleep and then got up for the day I remember that a few days after I had gotten my car my friend, Aaron, had called me asking why I had flipped him off.
I was the same story with my father. They thought someone elses car was mine.
Because apparently this car is the same color as mine and has a sticker in the back window as mine.

Mothes Day 2010



Did you know?!?

Recently I stumbled upon an app for my Ipod. An app that just gives you useless knowledge. And I love useless knowledge.


So I decided to share some of that useless knowledge.

'The magic word "Abracadabra" was originally intended for the specific purpose or curing hay fever.'

HELP! Please anyone?

I would love some help right now. I'm just really new at this and its not like the site gives you instructions on how to do it, which maybe they should or they do and I'm not looking in the right places.
I want to be able to grab your buttons and what not and I want to make my blog friendlier.
Could anyone give me some advice. Particularly on how to add stuff to my blog, such as buttons from other blogs.
Thank you!

Thats not my real name.

Trough out the years I have picked up a few nicknames along the way.
1.) Lin / Linz. We used these because there were more than one Lindsey in my class and after awhile I got tired of trying to figure out which one they were talking to.

2.) Debbie Downer. Since I was more of the responsible one in my group of friends and I wasn't as happy as them they gave me this nickname to describe me.

3.) Ms. Bartender Lady. My sister, her boyfriend and his friend came to the bar a few nights after I had started working there. Of course they had already had a little to drink before they got there. I don't know how this popped into my sisters head but to get my attention she would call me that and it has stuck even for when I'm not working at the bar.

4.) Dolley. One of my regulars couldn't remember my name after working there a couple of days. He decided to guess and he guessed wrong. Instead of calling my Lindsey he called me Dolley and now as kind of a joke the boys at the bar call me that to get my attention.

And finally one of the last ones.

5.) Pooh Pooh. No it doesn't have anything to do with what comes out of you when you go to the bathroom. I love Winnie the Pooh. I watched him all the time when I was a kid and collected stuffed animals of him and the gang. (I kind of still do here and there) But at some point in time my mother decided to start calling me that. And I still get called it to this day. But it reminds me of my childhood so I don't mind as much.

A day Through my Eyes!

So I decided to let you see what I see through out a day. Nothing big or fancy but a few photos to entertain you.

Feeling hungry. Made some chicken Alfredo (I made the chicken pretty fatty but it was good).

Captain getting use to his new home.
An owwy but everything is better with a wicked band aid.

The end of the day has finally come and Lil Man is ready for bed.

How Much Is That Doggie In The Window?

On Saturday I went with my roommate to the Nebraska Humane Society. We were in search of a puppy/dog for me. Ashley and Mikey have decided that for my Christmas present they were going to buy me a puppy.

So we went to see if I could adopt one that day. We arrived in high spirits, hopeful that one of the cute dogs would soon be one to call my own.

There were already alot of people there wanting to adopt their own animals.

We filled out the form and got our buzzer to let us know when it would finally be our turn.

We looked through the cats and at the critter corner to see if maybe Ashley would find another pet to own.

When we first got there the woman at the desk told us it would only be about an hour wait. An hour went by not to fast but not to slow either. But by this time we were both getting a little irritated from waiting.

So since we were waiting for someone to assist me in finding the right dog for me, Ashley decided she wanted to get a ferret. We put in her form to look at one and she got her buzzer as well. The wait for an animal continued.

There wasn't much call for people to look at ferrets so Ashley was able to get in and hold the ferret she thought she wanted. It only took a matter of minutes before Ashley decided she wanted him. So she was off to adopt him. Right after we get to the counter to put the final touches on officially adopting him my buzzer decided it was time for me to choose my dog.

My person (I don't remember her name) was extremely up beat and almost made me want to throw up from her happiness. But we went back to the kennels with the dog and started looking for a smaller dog that would fit comfortably into our home. Ashley and I should of went back there and looked at the dogs before we waited all that time because when I went back there with my helper I only found bigger dogs. (We would of gone back their earlier but the lady at the front desk told us that we had to wait for someone to go back there with us to look at the dogs. Needless to say that was a total lie!)

So Ashley walked away with a new ferret that she has now named Captain. And I walked away empty handed for the second time in getting a dog.

You may be wondering about the first time. I hadn't blogged anything about getting a dog earlier because I didn't want to jinx it but it didn't really matter. A couple of weeks ago I was suppose to be getting a dog from Ashley's Aunt because she no longer wanted so many dogs (she had 4). It was getting close to the day for us to go pick him up and I was starting to get excited I even got him a little toy. But not to long before I was suppose to get him Ashley called me up at work and told me her cousin had thrown a fit and now I was not going to be getting the dog.

I guess Ill just have to keep looking.

Friday the 13th. Should I hide under my bed?

Today is Friday the 13Th. And since there's nothing really exciting going on in my life at the current moment, I thought Id share with you some superstitions pertaining to Friday the 13Th or just the number 13 in general. These are somethings I found on the web.
*If you feel it needed to add or correct anything you are more than welcome to.

-More than 80 percent of high-rises lack a 13Th floor.
-Many airports skip the 13Th gate.
-Airplanes have no 13Th aisle.
-Hospitals and hotels regularly have no room number 13.
-Italians omit the number 13 from their national lottery.
-On streets in Florence, Italy, the house between number 12 and 14 is addressed as 12 and a half.
-Many cities do not have a 13Th Street or a 13Th Avenue.
-In France, socialites known as the quatorziens (fourteeners) once made themselves available as 14Th guests to keep a dinner party from an unlucky fate.
-Many say the No. 13 pointed to the ill-fated mission to the moon, Apollo 13.
-If you have 13 letters in your name, you will have the devil's luck (ie. Jack the Ripper)

Below is a list (hauntedbay.com) of some other unfortunate events that took place on Friday the 13Th.
•July 1951: The Great Flood killed 24 people, destroyed more than 2 million acres of land in Kansas and caused $760 million in damage.
•March 1964: The "Good Friday" earthquake wasn't actually so good. It remains the largest earthquake in North American history, killing 131 people near Prince William Sound.
•July 1987: An F4 tornado ripped through Edmonton, Alberta, killing 27 people and injuring at least 300.
•March 1992: An earthquake killed nearly 2,000 people and left 50,000 homeless in Turkey.

Fame and (Mis)Fortune (hauntedbay.com)
•Tupac Shakur was shot and killed in Las Vegas on a Friday the 13Th.
•Al Capone was sentenced to prison on a Friday the 13Th.
•Benny Goodman, the King of Swing, died on a Friday the 13Th.
•Hubert Humphrey, the 38Th Vice President of the United States, died on a Friday the 13Th.

More Friday The 13Th Facts (hauntedbay.com)
•In a traditional hangman's noose there are 13 twists of the rope and 13 steps to the gallows.
•Many buildings don't count their 13Th floors. You'll see on their elevators that the numbers skip from 12 to 14.
•There is no 13Th Avenue in San Francisco, instead Funston Avenue is between 12Th and 14Th Avenues.
•In Formula 1 racing, there is no car with the number 13. The number has been removed after two drivers were killed in crashes, both driving cars numbered 13.
•Killers Charles Manson, Saddam Hussein, Jeffrey Dahmer, John Wayne Gacy, Theodore Bundy, and Jack The Ripper each have 13 letters in their names.

And since it's Friday, we have to keep it light and give you a YouTube clip to watch. This one is of a Nike commercial that uses "Friday the 13Th" killer Jason Voorhees' likeness. No Friday The 13Th Superstitions here.

The Other Guys

Yesterday Daniel and I finally went on our movie "date". We went and saw The Other Guys. This should be a nice change of pace from my last movie reviews because this movie is still in theatres!

Description:
Detective Allen Gamble is a forensic accountant who's more interested in paperwork than hitting the streets. Detective Terry Hoitz is a tough guy who has been stuck with Allen as his partner ever since an unfortunate run-in with Derek Jeter. Allen and Terry idolize the city's top cops, Danson and Highsmith, but when an opportunity arises for the Other Guys to step up, things don't quite go as planned.

It was pretty funny. But I guess it wasn't what I thought it would be. I knew it was suppose to be funny but not as funny as I assumed it would be.

Happy Fish

Yesterday I was in a cleaning mood for some odd reason. It just hit me. Like everything I saw I needed to clean (guess that's my OCD kicking in). No I didn't have time to clean everything but what I did clean I thought I should share with you.







The before picture of PB&J's fish bowl.
The rocks are suppose to be clear and blue, not brown.








And the after picture of a happy PB&J swimming in his clean bowl.
We haven't figured out how his bowl gets so dirty so fast. Were starting to think its the food he's been eating.

Fatal Crash


I wanted to share this with everyone. This was around the area where I live and I think its a good reminder for people.

The link to the story and news video is at the top.

Short story behind it: A drunk driver killed 4 motorcyclyists a couple days ago. A couple people had called 911 to try and get the driver off the road before anything major happened. Before the police could get to the man he hit and killed the 4 people.

I just think this is so sad. This didnt have to happen.

So please pray for the families of those killed for God to watch over them during this time. And if you decide to go out and drink please dont drive. Lets try and stop these things from happening.

Cop Out


A comedy about a veteran NYPD cop whose rare baseball card is stolen. Since its his only hope to pay for his daughters upcoming wedding, he recruits his partner to track down the thief, a memorabilia-obsessed gangster.

This movie was ok. Ya Id watch it again. It had its funny parts through out the movie but it wasn't a constant. But I wouldn't run right out to buy it to watch it again. This is one of those movies you would pick out of your DVD collection on a boring day to pass the time.

She's Out Of My League

Kirk, an average Joe, cant believe his luck. Though hes stuck in a seemingly dead end job as an airport security agent, against all odds, Molly, a successful and outrageously gorgeous babe, has fallen for him. Not only is Kirk stunned, but his friends, family and ex-girlfriend, too. Now he has to figure out how to make the relationship work, even though he'd be the first to admit that she totally out of his league.

I LOVED this movie. It was so funny. It was beyond funny, it was a master piece. If I could Id go out and buy it right now to watch it again and again. Although it dragged a little at the end it was all worth it. A must watch!

When in Rome



Disillusioned with romance, an ambitious New Yorker travels to Rome, where she plucks magic coins from a special fountain. The coins attract an assortment of odd suitors. But when a persistent reporter throws his hat in the ring she wonders if his love is the real thing.

This movie was pretty good. Would I own it to watch it again, that's not certain. I mean yes it was a good movie. And I could really relate to the main characters way she felt about love, that when you find someone perfect your always waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Halloween 2009

I know its a little late, about a year actually. But I just now, today, got this scrapbook page done.

As you can see its from last years Halloween.

In the pictures are Mikey, as Sarah Jessica Parker as the witch in Hocus Pocus. Jenny, as a pink lady from Grease. Mikey's boyfriend Shane, as I'm not really sure maybe some singer from a heavy metal band, you can barely see him but hes there. And me of course as a Greek goddess. Then at the bottom are the pumpkins Mikey, Shane, and I carved.

I used my Cricut machine to cut out the letters and numbers. And the pumpkin stickers and lollipop sticker I got from Target. The spiders, ghost, and bats are brads that I also got from target. The paper I bought at Mangelsens (its nice paper but I don't think Ill buy from there again since it was so expensive. I prefer Hobby Lobby.).

Eclipse - The book

I don't think I did a review on the second book in the series and for that I apologize. But when I think about it I think I would of typed some what the same thing I did for the first book. So once again sorry for that.

Now for this book. I found that I liked this book more than I liked the first two books. Maybe because I liked how Jacob was more a part of Bella's life in this book. If you cant tell I'm for team Jacob. Who doesn't want a giant fuzzy dog to cuddle with that will protect you? But anyway. I think this book did a bit better job with detail. The fight might of been rushed in the end and dragged getting there in the beginning but all in all this was a good book.

The Book Of Eli

A lone hero must fight his way across the wasteland of post-apocalyptic America to protect a sacred book that holds the key to saving the future of humanity.

I LOVED this movie! The fight scenes were very well played. I want to own this movie. There is some humor in it and it makes the movie that much better. I'm still uncertain if I like the ending or not. I would have to watch again to make a final decision. But I think this movie is a must watch. Decide for yourself.

My skin is melting!

Or so it felt like it was melting off the next day.
As some of you know I went boating with my friends; Daniel, Justin, Joy, and Emmy. It was so nice on the lake. The sun was shining and there was barely anyone on the lake, since it was a week day.
At first we were having problems with the boat. It was tipping to one side when you went to fast. Justin's dad finally called him back and we got that straightened out.
Then we went tubing. And I think I went one to many times. Every time I got flung off I think I hit the water a little harder than the time before.
We swam and snacked. After my last run on the tube I decided I was pretty much done for the day. So while the others swam I layed on the boat and tanned. The sun felt so nice on my skin.
Of course I didn't use sunscreen because I'm an idiot and I burnt to a crisp.
After we got the boat out of the water we learned that the prop or whatever wasn't going up all the way. We couldn't figure out why. So while I went and changed into dry clothes the guys stood around trying to figure it out.
A guy from the lakes marina finally helped and they figured it out together. Then it was off to eat. And I was starving.
It was a great day. And I cant wait to do it again, minus the tube.

The Wolfman



Lawrence Talbot learns of his brothers disappearance and returns home to find that his brothers body has been found. Lawrence sets out to find his brothers killer and discovers a horrifying destiny for himself. Someone or something has been killing the villagers.

I thought this movie had a good plot but could you have cut out half the movie and it would of been just as good. It just seemed to drag on and on. I almost thought there wasn't going to be an ending. Would this be a movie I would watch again, HECK NO! The only way I would watch it again is if I could edit it and make it shorter.

Dr.Pap. Paging Dr.Pap.

*Warning to guys who may read my blog. If you don't like to read about girly gorey details I suggest you turn back now!

**If you for some reason you decided to read on don't say I didn't warn you.

So I'm back to my blog and I have missed it soo much! I know I'm behind on reading every one's blogs but hopefully Ill catch up on everything within the next couple days. If you think there is a blog that was posted that you think Id like to read please give the link and I would love to check it out.

Moving on. This afternoon is a time where I would like to have an out of body experience. I may be a woman but that doesn't mean I like to do the things we have to do. Example having a period. I hate having it. I don't even like to say the word period unless it deals with the thing on the end of a sentence. And I know you can be on the depo shot and not have a period. Well I tried that option and it made my face break out so bad!

Another example of me not liking being a woman is having to get a yearly pap smear. I bet most of you already knew what this post was about from the title. But anyway. Yes today is my annual pap test. Congrats right? I know it needs to be done to make sure I'm healthy and what not down there but I just wish there was some other way to go about it.

The only good thing I like about doing this is I found a really good doctor. She is in and out in only a few seconds. When I went to her one of the first couple times my mom went to the bathroom while I got checked in. They got me in right away and I was out in no time. My mom barely started reading her magazine in the waiting room when I came out. She thought there was something wrong.

All in all wish me luck that it goes smoothly and there's nothing wrong!

So far this week and beyond

Monday I slept most the day and then I went to work.
Tuesday I slept a good portion of the day. Then I came to Woodbine to ran some errands. Did some recycling, went to the bank, and paid my car payment. Then I went back to Dunlap to pay the rent. Then it was off to work.
*The reason Ive been so tired this week I'm blaming on mother nature. If you don't get it from just that reference Ill explain in more detail. Guys if you read this cover your eyes. I'm having my period this week *shudder* (I'm 20 and still don't like to say period when it deals with my innards instead of the end of a sentence).
Today I'm hanging out at my parents house borrowing their Internet since I don't have Internet at my house. Then I'm going to go home and shower. Tonight I plan on hanging out with Daniel at the shop (the shop is the place where they work on their race cars and drink). Just hanging out and drinking.
Tomorrow I'm going to be taking Little Man to the vet to get his nails cut. Since neither Ashley nor I will do it. Then Daniel invited me to go boating with him, Justin, and Joy (Justin's girlfriend). Well be on the lake most the day probably drinking. Then that night who knows.
Friday I will most likely be lazy most of the day. Then I will head to work. Its taco night and I'm super excited. My family said they would come for some tacos.
Saturday I will either be going to the races or going to hang out with my friends in CB. Since we still haven't celebrated Jenny's b-day ( well she might of already but I haven't celebrated with her, I know I'm slacking on my duties as a friend).
There you have it my week summed up in one blog. Weird?

Sunday Funday

So this past Sunday I was at my parents for our monthly family day. See since most of my siblings and I have moved out of my parents house, my parents started doing a family get together the first Sunday of every month. Unless some big event is going on then we post pone it til the next Sunday. Without doing this we would hardly see each other. Its really nice to be able to see my family other times besides holidays, graduations, funerals, ect.

So each person is suppose to bring something being the lazy person I was I didn't really think about it til a couple days before so I had nothing to bring this month. But my mom had some lemon bars that I could make as my contribution to the get together. Not homemade of course. Kind of sad because Ive really gotten into making things not from boxes, in other from scratch. But they turned out decent anyway.

For this family get together my "half" brother came up with his new baby and woman. I say "half" because I'm not related to him. He just lived with my family for a couple years and I consider him family. And I say his woman because their not married, although I do think their dating.

Anyway so most of the day I was being distracted by baby Deakin (not sure if that's the right spelling but its pretty close to it). And my sister called me a baby hog. Well if she would have one of her own with Andrew we I wouldn't be such a baby hog when a baby comes to visit.

Sorry moving on. So we ate and talked about whats been going on in our lives. I guess I have now told my family about Daniel, not that it was a big secret anyway. Ashley was looking over my shoulder as I was texting him.

Then the fun really began with dessert. We were out on the deck, passing baby Deakin around, and starting a fire in the fire pit. For dessert we had my lemon bars, left over brownies and we made Smores. Yum Yum Yummy!

My mom had apparently been going through some of her old stuff and came upon some fire works she took from my brother as a punishment some years ago. She brought those out and all the boys were having a blast lighting those off. They were pretty old and I didn't even know if they would work. But the boys were determined. And they did.

So quick recap......
Baby, Smores, Fireworks.
*None of the pictures below were taken at the party. All were found on Yahoo.

A Triple Movie Review

That's right a triple threat of movies. Ive watched a few movies lately and figured Id let you guys in on them.
This first movie is Frailty.
An FBI investigation that takes you into the Meiks family lives. Fenton, a son in the Meiks family, has flash backs from his childhood. Claiming he knows who the "God's hands" killer is.

This movie was pretty good. A little twisted but decent. Then half way through the movie is changed up a little bit. You have to follow it a little bit but in the end it makes the movie more interesting, in my opinion.



The second movie Hard Candy.

A teenage girl is going to a local coffee shop to meet up with a 30 something man she met on the internet. But as the night goes on the turns out that Hayley isn't so innocent.

This made for an interesting movie. There were alot of twists and turns. You had to pay attention during some parts or you weren't going to get the full details of some. It was kind of good but I'm not sure if it would be one of those movies Id watch again.


The third and final movie is Night Of The Living Dorks.
Three losers in high school are turned into zombies for a night after attempting to try their hand at voodoo. Now they can seek revenge on the people that have bullied them for so long.
This was originally a German film and the voices were changed to English. So the voices are a little off. It is slightly annoying but you don't notice so much as the movie goes on. There was a lot of humor. Not that all the jokes were funny or at least I didn't think so. Yes there are some pretty funny parts but Id probably only watch this again if I was pretty bored.

Now don't start freaking out. There will always be more movie reviews another day because I am addicted to movies. And yes I used my opinion but you are always more than welcome to watch these movies, form your own opinion, and let me know and everyone else what you thought. Your opinion is always welcome!
