Hopeful

Hmmm.

I really have had nothing to blog about.

I had a fantastic Easter. I love my family. Mom made chicken n dressing and ham and that always makes my day, no week, no month, no whole year!

Every day we are getting closer to moving out so that makes me happy. Salvation is nigh. Hah.

This weather is AMAZING. I love it so much. I just want to stay outside all day. I don't know if it's the weather or not (I'm sure it helps alot) But I am very refreshed and rejuvenated.

I got Steph and I tickets to go see Panic at the Disco in Ruston , come April 17th. Tis her graduation present and my...um...present for being cool? We are terribly excited. I want to go all emo cause that would be so fun and I'm never able to do it but we will see if I actually go to the trouble when the time comes. I might just settle for heavy eye liner. lol

Tony is planning a trip for just the 2 of us to go out west in June. Like around New Mexico or Arizona. That is his favorite part of the country and I have never been West (only East, North and South) so he wants me to see the awesomeness and I'm ok with that! I am so excited about it!!! I am so happy he's doing this for me. I didn't even ask, but he knows how much I love trips and how I've really been wanting an "us" trip for a long long long time. The last one of those we took was when he proposed to me in Dallas. Hopefully nothing will stand in the way of it from now until then. We will go either my birthday week or the week after. If we go my birthday week I won't be all depressed if alot of my friends arn't able to make it for my party. This is the first birthday I'm going to have in which alot of my friends live out of state. I wouldn't be so worried but most people are coming in for Meredith's wedding the week before so I doubt they would be able to come back so soon. Then again I might be sad if I don't get a party! So we will see.

Not much else, just moving along. It's all good in the hood.

Will I ever

ever ever ever ever see Wicked? I want to so badly!!!! Sigh.

I want a "Katie"

If you need a reason to go see Horton Hears A Who, here it is. The infamous furball, my hero, Katie.

RAWR

I am a person with eternal patience. I can wait however long to buy something, it takes me a long long time to get mad or frustrated with someone. I'm loosing patience. Actually I've been out of patience for a while now, but it's really starting to get to me. It's just taking a long time to find that place. The next place Tony and I move, we are going to be there for a good long while. So we want it to be as perfect for us as possible. I have a long list of townhouses and apartments we've been weeding through...with nothing but disappointments so far. Saturday we are going to take that whole day to go look...and we still have some pretty promising places. Hopefully one will click with us. Sigh, I cannot wait. It makes my soul want to burst with joy just thinking about it. I will be so happy! To have all my things in one place again instead of spread out for so long I don't even remember what all I have.

After that, I will be wanting to decide whether to find a "career" type job, (I am so sick of this temp shiz) or go back to school. I'd like both but that very seldom hardly ever ever happens. I guess the main thing would be deciding whether or not to go back to school. It sucks because I want to so badly, but I also want to not worry about it and start a family and work. Sigh. Why didn't I get school done and over with so I'd be free to do the family thing without hinderance now?

I am happy, I am just at a crossroads (I think I've been there so long people who pass by just confuse me for a tree now) and confused and ready for stuff to happen!!! Sigh Sigh Sigh. Oh well, now that I got all this off my brain I'm going to go and stop thinking about it and work on stuff.

WOW

The new governor of NY is BLIND! How crazy is that! Rock on man.

*smiles*

*EDIT: I fixed my video if you wanna see it*

*warning: I'm in an eye=candy mood*
I had a GREAT weekend!! Saturday started off really crappy, but got much better that evening. I had a fantastic dinner with friends at da O-G.




Then we all went to see Horton Hears A Who. Now, I was kinda interested in this movie but not terribly. But DANG was it one of the best movies!!! It was sooooooooo good and sooooooo hilarious. "My world is where everyone has a pony...and they eat rainbows..and poo butterflies." tOmg so many great moments in that movie! We all cried laughing.





AND I about flipped my LID when a ICE AGE trailer played at the beginning of the movie!!! I love my scrat so much. I still have no recovered from the shock of that.






Today I went out to mom & dad's and stayed out there pretty much all day. It was such a BEAUtiful day! It was per-fect. I love going out to Calhoun. I can breathe and tthink out there. Sheri and the girls came over and I played hop scotch with them (I love me some side-walk chalk) They are so cute I love my nieces.

(and yes the sun was just right so you see my shadow in most of them lol)











Ain't she cute?? I was an old grandmaw when I did it but of course the youngins could dance it and do it backwards.

And a rainbow and waterfall that RAchel helped me on. It's going down steps, get it? (I know, I am a great artist, please not alot of praise...and no autograph requests. Thankyou)





"Got my dreams got my life got my love. Got my friends and the sunshine above. There's so many beautiful reasons I have to be happy."

*smiles*

Getting better!

Well I woke up today feeling 1000000000 times better. I still have a cough from the depth of despair... I still have the snot... but I feel those germs getting their butts kicked from all that vitamin C I"ve been sending after them.

We had terribly too much fun last night. I made the best cake EVER (according to everyone) We got maybe and hour of playing done in between everyone and their mama stopping by to say bye to Shannon and Chris, but that's ok because I got to hug and visit with so many people whom I love and never get to see!! Today I get to go see my HSM peeps, and then go hang out with my Merbear, who lives in Alabama so I don't get to see her that often. Get to have dinner with the gang tonight, so I'm excited!!! If only we have time to go look at at least a couple houses today then the day will be perfect.

Oh and it's a beautiful day and I have pretty pink toes.

(Ok I changed my mind. This cough is going to KILL ME!)

I would include some crazy eye candy I have to go cause we have to get to HSM, so maybe later.

UGH

I'm sick with a cold. What kind of cold? The throat-hurts-so-bad-I-can't-swallow-my-teeth-hurt-my-face-is-going-to-explode-
can't-stop-sneezing-runny-nose-gonna-pass-out kinda cold.

At least I was off work today already. I've never had one hit me this fast!

I would just sleep it off but I can't sleep cause I can't get comfortable and I can't breathe!

My loving husband did bring me chicken noodle soup for lunch. *huggles him*

I'm going to go read my new X-Men comic book (that makes me happy) and die some more now.

I'm going to sign!!

"Guinness raises a glass to 3-17

Should St. Patrick's Day be an official holiday?

Guinness thinks so, and they've launched a major campaign to support their cause. Go to http://www.proposition317.com to sign the petition and learn more about why they think March 17 should be a national day of importance. In order for Guinness to take the issue to Congress, they need 1 million signatures. The current tally: 888,768.

"Never before has the Irish spirit been so alive inside of so many U.S. residents," the website states. "Guinness and Proposition 3-17 supporters believe that a regulated, official holiday would not only reduce the amount of employees missing work in order to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, but officially allow people to express their Irishness."


Dad LOVED the green sketti again. (I lost my pic of it :( It was a pretty green too) I swear it was the best I ever made. Had to be cause it was green. It was in celebration of St. Patties day! Yeah! Not that I'm weird! :/ Yeah right. Although, we watched Resident Evil Extinction and that was not as much loved. I'm a big fan of the 2nd one (hated the 1st one) but the 3rd one was blah. I think that is the ONLY time I have ever liked a middle movie out of a "trilogy" more than the 1st or 2nd. Especially to such an extreme. We had a good time though.

Tomorrow I have hanging out with the Abs and the Wes to look forward too. I'm getting my belly muscles prepared b/c I always laugh the hardest when I'm over there.

Then Saturday Tony and I are doing a major drive by apt/townhouse search! I hope it's good weather :/ I have a list of places ready to be tackled. Saturday night we're having a d&d session, ok there will be alot of people there so it will probably be more like a d&d session/rock band session/ pig out session/ whatever else session at Wes's. Even our good friends who we hardly get to see, Rocky & Amy are going to be there yay!

I'm sad the cold weather is back tonight, cause today was BEAUtiful!!!

On a completely random note: I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE OLYMPICS!! I am a complete Olympic FREAK (trust me you WILL be kept update of medal counts by me on blogger, I always do it on my blogs, like it or not) and I'm counting down the days till they arrive!



Ps. Matt didn't even comment on my love-ly video I posted of him. Shows how much he loves me eh?

PPs. Ok the way they did the petition thing is really cool!!

Fun fun

One of our many parties. This was my brother's birthday party. You never need drugs or alcohol to have fun. You just need us. (and the Wii and/or RockBand helps alot).

If you can't tell by Tony's beast-like "uhhh"'s or the fact that he and Matt still have make-up on, this was during Beauty & The Beast.

I'm on my way to have a date with my daddy tonight since mom is away in Hawaii and I didn't go out there to visit him this weekend. When I was younger and it was my turn to cook for the night, I usually made spaghetti, but it was special kim & dad sketti. I would always take mom's food coloring and dye the noodles green! Dad would always act like he was disgusted for the fun of it, but he always says mom's sketti isn't the same without green noodles. So that's what I'm cooking for him tonight!

Hope everyone has a great night.

Rainy Day

Wow my 2nd post for the day! I have the day off today and I am bored -- I have the most overwhelming urge to go shopping and get new cute clothes and a new pair of sexy shoes and get my hair cut but it's the worst weather EVER outside!!! Argh. I do not want to go out in it. Especially with flash flood and tornado watches on the tv screen. Figures when I have the day off to do these things the weather turns to blah! I have to go back to work tomorrow but maybe sometime this week I can get my retail therapy.

Time for picture fun!! *cheesy cartoon music plays*




Bet you guys didn't know there was a secret scene in the movie Pirates of the Carribean, with a secret character: Stephanie Sparrow? Well here is a still from it.



My nieces, Rachel, Tyler & I. They are the cutest things ever.



Tony can sleep anywhere, anytime. I walked in on him sleeping like this. Seriously. I woke him up right after I took this pic and laughed at him cause he had a deep red line going across his forehead.



Evidence of him falling asleep IN THE MIDDLE OF FOLDING CLOTHES.



Even with kitties on top of him.


He has also slept sitting up right in his computer chair, laying in bed with his head propped UP onto his upright arm, and riding in a van with his head literally banging against the window.

This concludes our picture fun for the day.

Yeah yeah. ..

I'm gonna have a hard time with this show. This...*says with malcontent* "Sugar". I am hating Priscilla and Tony right now. They are the reason I auditioned for Footloose. They are the reason I made so many friends in that show, and they are the reason I feel so bad right now! And yes I am so thankful for them too, for opening my eyes to a whole new world. I'm dumb, I should have auditioned. Cause now ALL of those friends are gonna be having so much fun and have NO time for me! YEAH I'm having a selfish moment ok? I don't have many of them so allow me this once. I'm just venting!

Don't get me wrong, I have a very good reason for not auditioning. (Heck if I were even to make it in) I shall just try to keep that in my mind when I get sad that none of my friends have time for me anymore. Well, reasons, plural. I really could not put them into words if I tried, and they are very personal but it pretty much has to do with doing what's best for my husband and I and our future family and life together. I mean, mine and Tony's <4> year anniversiary is in May! (Wooooo!!! I love my husband!! --Yes I'm hating and loving him in the same breath-- we are married what did you expect lol) So yeah, I may be in a show another time, when I have things sorted out, but it just really sucks that so many of my friends are in this one. :-( AND a good friend is moving away AND I miss my brother. /pouts.

Anyway, like I said, I just had to vent. I know I made the right decision. It's all good... (As long as my friends don't forget about me and toss me a few "I love you"'s my way every now and then) ;-) I will focus on the things I need to. I was completely happy staying home through ALL the shows Tony used to do before Footloose, so I can be that way again. Like tonight, I had fun with my boys. I have plenty of things to work on and keep me occupied! I'll just miss spending time with just about everyone in the cast. It should be SUCH a great show and I can't wait to see it!

On another note, I'm REALLY happy one of my best friends (yeah ok I'm talking about Stephie) is so happy. I'm happy when my friends are happy. How many times can I say happy? It's like Mikey and GOOD. But really, I've NEVER seen her like this in ALL the years that I have known her and ALL the things I have seen her through. (and trust me it's been alot) Even her really happy (teehee) times have been NOTHING like this. It's different this time. It's amazing to see. Truly!

*shakes fist angrily at Tony & Priscilla*

I leave you with: SPARTA CHICKEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *evil laugh*
















WE! ARE! SPARTA! ...CHICKENS!
