OMG

It has been far too long since I've been on here and updated. To tell you everything that has happened between then and now would take me forever so to shorten it all up... BUSY. I have been way too busy for my own good. I don't even know what to say right now since I'm sickly and really don't feel like writing and for that I apologize. SO this is an update basically to tell you I'm still alive and still hoping to get a computer and get back to writing more frequently here soon. I LOVE you guys for continuing to read and stay up with my life. Later! <3

I'm Ready!

Today is one of the most majestic days in the world. WHY??? Because my Xbox finally arrived. I'm very excited to go pick it up and get to play with the new shiny toy. Gabe bought me Dead Island and the MW3 matching headset I wanted. I went shopping with Gabe yesterday and bought a whole lot of really cute shirts and jeans and shoes. OMG SHOES. One pair is a shiny color changing purple/teal that kind of made me feel like Katy Perry. I feel girly and I like it. Despite playing MW3 and being a total chic geek, I'm totally a girly girl somewhere underneath. Becca has parent teacher conferences today and her first soccer practice. Hope she got enough sleep last night considering she didn't shut her mouth and close her eyes until 11:30. Oh well, she'll learn. Have to go play MW3... YAY EXCITEMENT!!! Later! <3

Every Now & Then

Okay so I didn't post yesterday... obviously. I no longer have a computer! Fun times. I had been using my friend Alex's laptop while my desktop has been in the shop since December with a bad motherboard. Sadly, this means my postings will be a little sporadic until I get a computer back or something else figured out. Yesterday was okay but I didn't really do anything. Alex and Stan are getting ready to move into a bigger apartment and I went over last night to play MW3 while they packed. Today I think I'm going shopping for some new jeans. YAY JEANS!!! I have very few jeans and am ready for some new clothes. Really hoping my Xbox gets here soon too. Not sure when I'll be able to post again, but since mom doesn't mind me using her computer when she isn't doing homework I will try to post as often as possible. Later! <3

Sunday

Yep. That's today. Getting closer and closer to Tuesday all the time. I'm trying to be patient. Today is pretty chill. Mom is doing homework while Becca and I watch Big Time Rush. Technically I'm blogging and playing on Facebook, but BTR doesn't bother me as much as other shows she wants to watch. New episode of Walking Dead tonight. Yay! :) Apparently, Suddenlink (my cable and Internet provider) is considering dropping AMC. That would totally suck... a world where I have to watch Breaking Bad and Walking Dead only online. That world makes me kind of sad. At my house, we get together to watch these shows together. That's the only time we really get to hang out together. We don't watch any other show together like we do with those. I think one of these days soon I am going to buy myself some jeans. I make one pair into cut-offs and am just working on getting them hemmed up. Later! <3

OMG BTW FTW

Okay so today has been a lot of just lounging around the house being boring. In fact, I think the most interesting thing I did up until about a half hour ago was make some coffee. What did I do a half hour ago, you ask? Well, I bought myself my first gaming console since the PS2. I bought myself an Xbox 360 MW3 Limited Edition that comes with 2 controllers (also in the same theme as the machine), a headset, and the game (MW3). I have my own live account but have been using my dads Xbox. Now I'll have my own. I'm SO very excited for this. I had to go ahead and get the Rush delivery to get it sooner. It should be here either Tuesday or Wednesday. Basically, I talked with mom and we're going to wait to get a living room set so we can have the Xbox. I haven't ever bought myself something this nice before, so I'm very excited to say I bought a big ticket item all by myself. Tonight I'm going to go do some laundry and play some MW3. First, we're going to dinner with my grandparents and my Aunt and Uncle from out of town. Later! <3

Eventually

I figure, eventually, I will eventually get myself to a point where I am posting again during normal daylight hours. I have felt absolutely horrid for the last two days. Today I was very blah for most of the day. I slept until 2:30 in the afternoon and was still sickly. I feel better right now, but sadly I know I have to go to bed... so that I can wake up tomorrow and feel like crap all over again. I'm less than excited. After I woke up, I watched some TV and then went to the Salvation Army's Chili Cook-off. Everyone came down and helped support the SA Youth Night. After the cook-off we went out to Perkins and get some food. Becca and I went to my dads and played some MW3. She was really good today while mom and I were both sick, so she got to stay up a little late tonight and hang out. In all, it's been a pretty good day despite not feeling well. That's about all there is for now. Later! <3

3 A.M

It's that time of night... the time when I should be sleeping but can't so I have decided to blog instead. Nothing real exciting has happened today. I've been sickly all day with sinus crap that just makes me miserable. That's a good word for what my day has been: Miserable. I played Modern Warfare 3 and hung out with Alex and even got some laundry done. I felt so crap-tastic though that the whole day kind of zoomed by in a blur. I sure hope I feel better tomorrow since I have to be at a church function at 6. We're having a chili cook-off of sorts and an auction. So, like I said, I hope I feel better for all of that. Not sure what else to say so I think that will be it for now. Later! <3

SO Much Fun!

 Today was pretty good over all. When I woke up it was a bit of a mad dash for the door. Had to get laundry done, help fix my grandparents dresser, pay my personal property taxes, pick up Casey and take her to see a potential little dog for her, and go to Maryville. There was just so much on such a tight schedule. It all went rather smoothly though.
 Not sure how the dog thing is going for Casey, the guy did not seem too excited to get rid of the little dog. We will just have to keep looking if this doesn't end up working out. I kind of hope it does though, I think it could be a good match for her.
 Despite being so busy, I did get to go to Maryville with my girls. Alex, Raye, and I went to see Chaz Bono speak at NWMSU to talk about his transition from Female to Male and promote his newest book Transitions. We all enjoyed this very much. It was nice to hear about his story of how he struggled and how real he was about his experience with what he's been through. I congratulate him for his strength to be able to not only talk about himself, but also to help other people with their struggles. Alex and I got our picture taken with him, and Alex and Raye both bought his book and got it signed. He was kind of a cutie in my opinion.
 Alright, well that has been my day for the most part and I hope your day has been super freaking awesome! Later! <3

The Play

Tonight is Becca's school play. She is a Fisherman and has her own line in one of their songs. Following in my footsteps already. Anyways, today we started cleaning out my sisters basement. It was a total mess down there. Only like half a billion spiders down there so... that was fun. Went to lunch with my grandparents at Ryan's and then went to buy my new couch. Sadly my couch was already sold. So I am still lacking a new couch. Becca is being a little obnoxious right this moment but that's okay, she's meant to be nuts. My friends are pretty freaking awesome, by the way. Just throwing that out there. Hmmm.... Well I have to get around for Becca's play so I will check back in with you all tomorrow. Later! <3

BTW!!!! Thank you to Switzerland for checking out my blog now also! Much love to all my readers!

Woo!!!!!!!!

Excitement. I am so close to Prestige on MW3. Okay, so by close I mean level 66. Whatever, I'm calling it close. Today was a lot of hurry up and wait. I kind of like that. I got up early and ran most of my errands, then got to do laundry and play MW3, then I had to rush to church (I was still late) and then make donuts, then I got to sit around at home, and then had dinner with Gabe, Dom, and Sarah. Sarah is Dom's girlfriend. They're all cool people. This means I got to see all of my close knit people (minus a Stan) today. Alex and Raye were at church and then the dinner of course. Delicious by the way... is it horrible of Sarah and I to play MW3 while the boys were in the kitchen? I can't speak on her behalf, but I thought it was hilarious. Full 3 course dinner is always kick ass. Salad, grilled chicken and fries, and then strawberry short cake for dessert. It was amazing. Boys should cook more often! I stayed up WAY too late though and should have probably been home and in bed like 2 hours ago. Oh well, I enjoyed my day. Plus, the weather was freaking awesome. Tomorrow  they're talking like it's going to be up in the 70's. Is it fair to call it Spring yet? Later! <3

Shocking

No, not my life. Although, it is very scandalous... uhm... NOT. Anyways, no, what I find shocking is the stats on this blog. I enjoy getting on every day and looking at how many people have checked out my blog and where they're from. Although most of my viewers are from right here in America, it amazes me how many views I get from other countries. 26. That's how many views come from outside of the United States. Russia has 17 views, Germany has 6, and Uruguay has 1. Most of my readers are using Safari browsers, on Windows operating systems. I would like to take an opportunity to thank everyone who comes and reads my blog. It makes me feel like what I have to say matters... whether it does or not is completely indifferent. So thank you for that. Also, I am a little bit of everything and my family tree is more spastic than you can imagine. I have family from all over the world and it's nice to feel a little more connected to (related or not) different parts of the world.

As for what I had going on today, the reply is basically "Not Much." I've really done a whole bunch of nothing. We had my brother and my dad over for dinner tonight. We made Reuben's, Hash Browns, and French Fries. Yum! After dinner we watched The Walking Dead and have just been hanging out since then. Talk to you tomorrow! Later! <3

What To Do...

I get the day off! All I really have to do today is shop for food for moms birthday party on the 18th, and pick Becca up from her moms. I think mom plans to go sit in my aunt's Hot Tub, I might join in for that. Other than that I really have jack going on today. This thought does not bother me at all, by the way. I have been so busy for so long that it's nice to be able to say, "I have absolutely nothing going on" and really mean it. Right this moment I'm just watching TV and getting ready to write to my Senator that I got to see the other day. I am very excited for what is coming soon. I will be 21 on the 27th, and then on April 2nd I will be leaving for Las Vegas for 5 days. Who else has awesome things coming up soon? Leave me a comment and let me know. Later! <3

Feels Like Today

No, for serious, it does. It feels like a perfectly perfect Friday. It's a busy one, but still a good one. I love the weekends. I had to take mom to her doctors appointment at 1 today, she is having the first half of her surgery today. They are going to basically burn the nerve endings that are sending the messages of pain. She was not very excited (who would be though) but went in and is getting through it. I had to leave and run to the post office and now I'm just waiting to go to my training at the Salvation Army at 3. Then at 4, also at the Salvation Army, we are having a Friday get together until 7. When I get done there I am going to go hang out with Gabe. This whole month is just filling up so quickly. It's nuts to think that it's March already. Wasn't it just January? I feel like this year has started out in a blur. I hate how quickly time goes by now that I'm older. Does anyone else remember those days of being really young and the days just went on and on forever? I wish things didn't have to change so rapidly. Nostalgia, I have it apparently. ANYWAYS, I have to get around and get ready to go to the Army so, have a great day and I'll talk to you guys tomorrow. Later! <3

Oy!

Alright, yesterday was super awesome. We didn't get to speak with our Representative, but we did speak with our Senator. Although I don't think we swayed his vote one way or the other, I do think we made an impression. He said he would give it his consideration, and I will take a 'Definate Maybe' over a 'No' any day of the week. The Capital Building here in Missouri is absolutely gorgeous. Had fun with Alex, Raye, and the rest of the group that we got to go with.

Let's talk about what's going on today. Gabe is still not finished with my room. I could deal with this if it wasn't slowly killing me. I wake up every morning unable to breathe and even better, I get to sleep on the couch which doesn't help me sleep any better so I get to wake up with a headache every day. I'm ready to get out of here for the day and go do laundry. I will probably play some Modern Warfare 3. I had to take my nasal spray, Suddafed, and Aspirin today so that I could have some kind of motivation to get out of bed. I will be more than happy when all this gets done. Anyways, I'm headed out I think, but I hope you all have a better day than I'm having. Later! <3
