Grrrrl power

I am not a plan

B. Or a consolation

prize. I am worth more.

a kick in the face

Surprise call from his

fiancee. Didn’t know she

existed. What the????

 

 

Don’t think I have anything more to say on this right now.  Kind of still in shock.  Could use a lot of prayers, please.

Thursday update and mosaic answers

Know what I think is pretty awesome?  Electricity.  Oh – how I do miss thee!  I haven’t had power since last Sunday.  And while I’m surviving just fine, it’s beginning to wear on my nerves a bit.  The last two days have been pretty comfortable after the weather cooled off a bit.  But today and tomorrow are going to be 88 and humid.  My place is going to feel like a convection oven again.  ugh.  DTE is guessing that they’ll have my power back on either later Friday night or maybe Saturday.

I had to get ready for my blind date last Sunday in the semi-dark of a summer storm.  As if preparing for such an event isn’t nerve wracking enough! 🙂 –> more details on that event another time.

Changing gears here: After looking at my mosaic – I thought there were a few things that needed some clarification.

Like: my celebrity crush.  In case you were wondering – it’s Jimmy Fallon.  Not Drew Barrymore.  Don’t get me wrong-  she’s a beautiful lady and all, and she seems like a lot of fun.  She’s just not my type – one too many X chromosomes.

For the rest of the answers:

1.) First Name: Julianne.  And I love this pic of Julianne Moore – she’s waaaaaay more photogenic than I

2.) Favorite food: sweet yellow corn on the cob.  Great for summer nights.

3.) High School: Rochester Adams.  This is actually a photo of their cheerleading squad.  I think it’s a little creepy that some dude out there has so many photos of young cheerleaders – I hope he’s just a dad.

4.) Favorite Color: Green.  love it love it love it.  And not just because I went to MSU, or because I’m a tree hugger.  Seriously – doesn’t this photo make you happy just looking at it?

5.) Celebrity crush: Jimmy Fallon.  (see description above.)  He’s also my imaginary boyfriend.

6.) Favorite drink: Mojito.  yum.   (I also love G&T’s and beer – but I figured mojito’s would have the best photo – notice there’s lots of green in it!)

7.) Dream vacation: Australia.  Especially the Great Barrier Reef.  I love snorkeling.  But I hear that all of the tourism in that area is detrimental to that fragile ecosystem.  Maybe I’ll just dream about it instead.

8.) Favorite dessert: Tiramisu.  hands down.  words can’t really describe how I feel about a really well done tiramisu.  I have to learn how to make it myself someday.

9.) When I grow up: I have this dream about working in a Kenyan orphanage.  And loving on all of those children.  Just look at the beautiful faces.  The best part about this photo: it’s an orphanage with a REAL bathroom.  The other ones I’ve visited have outhouses.  ugh.

10.) What do I love: Jesus.  He is so amazing to me – and I hope to grow more in love with him every day of my life.

11.) One word that describes me: Funny.  I love making people laugh, and I love when they make me laugh.  Plus I love husky men – so this photo was made for me!  (Although he could lose the mullett and hooves…)

12.) my flickr name?  None.  I don’t have one – I use photobucket. 🙂  I just love this girly little hamster-thing.  too cute.

 

Did anyone else try this at home?  I would love to hear if you did!

just resting…

Hello Innernets! It’s been a long, sleep deprived week. I apologize for the lack of posts!  It doesn’t help that I’ve had problems with my work computer crashing every time I tried to save or publish.

Sometimes I don’t really *heart* technology.

But back to some hawesomeness – and the reason I’ve been too pooped to post:

To kick it off – I had a GREAT party this last Sunday. About 60+ of my closest friends – and some people I’ve never met before – got together to eat freshly-popped corn, bounce on a moonwalk, and hit up the ice cream truck that stopped by. Also there were burgers, dogs, beer, pop, s’mores. Football, ladder golf, bonfire. Life is good. Life is really really good.

However – life does suck just a little when you are cleaning up after kicking the last guest out at 4am! Getting up a 9 to finish up the heavy cleaning/dishes/etc.

No one threw up on the moonwalk – Yay! Although I was concerned about one of my sangria-influenced friends. 🙂 However, we did have a lot of minor injuries of the bruising/vinyl-burn type from the WWF style activities going on inside the giant inflatable frog. Picture to follow.

* note to self: include bandaids, gauze, and neosporin in next year’s party supply list.

To all my friends (old & new): Thank you for making it a great night (and morning!) – and a great year! I love you all. 🙂

Also to come soon. *golf *getting girly *and taking Jessie’s challenge to go on a date! (I promise I’m working on it, girl!)

Take care – miss ya!
