666

Ahh, the famous Evil Day. I like the way SpiteSpright decided to do her post. So, here is my version.

Here is what Evil things I did today.
1. I F'ing woke up. Grrr.
2. I took out the evil garbage.
3. I washed the evil EVIL dishes.
4. I wasted time on the not-so-evil internet.
5. Oh- the evil addicting MySpace too.
5. I weighed myself and found out I lost a total of 21 EVILEVILEVIL pounds. Woot!
6. I washed some evil laundry.
7. I arrived at my evil job.
8. I was called a "fat ass" by a WITCH, who we had to put in restraints in the hallway, who was continually yelling "THE DEVIL IS GOING TO KILL YOU! You have SATAN in your eyes! What did I do to deserve this? The DEVIL is taking my soul!!!"
Yeah, um, this was an interesting night :)

Goodnight Mr.Devil.

A little bitter... A little skinnier... A little greener

Yeah, so, I'm a little bitter. WHY THE F*** IS IT SO MUGGY OUT?!!?!? I can't take it. I feel my skin starting to crawl. UGH. I can't wait to go to work tonight just to get out of this heat! I definately can't live in NY forever. I've made my mind up. I want to try other places. I really feel that Seattle will be my next move. Maybe next year, maybe the year after. I don't know. I was looking at their average temps out there, and it's much better than here. I'd rather be cold than hot. Although I do like tanning, there are always booths for that :)

Plane tickets for Alaska were bought this week! Horray! I'm leaving July 17th and coming home July 27th. I'm hoping Fun_with_cheese will let me use his fancy 2000 cubic inch backpack he just got for his Czech Republic trip. I was thinking of making a stop in seattle on the way there so I can visit, but there's not enough time. I'd rather go with someone, and spend atleast a week or so. Maybe I'll go in October to break up my semester so I don't go stir crazy :)

Look what came in the mail!!!



10 balls of Rowan Polar is color Jaffa. It's such a soft yarn!


10 skeins of Rowanspun 4-ply in Turkish.


and 10 skeins of Rowanspun dk in Drizzle.


I'm in heaven :)

On another good note, I'm now down 19 pounds. Woot!

This month was Project Spectrum's GREEN month. I figured that I would be my own inspiration. This is my new awesome shirt from old navy. What a nice lime green :)

buttons, atkins, and a+p

Alright. Eveyone has to respond to this. I am debating on whether or not to buy a button maker! I can't decide between the 1" and the 1 1/4". Would anyone be interested if I did little button workshops for a very minimal fee giving you the use of the machine and the supplies? Machines are around $200 or less. I plan on making a line of buttons and maybe a line of magnets too. I could also take this machine to craft shows with some clip art or magazines and let kids make their own buttons. What do you all think?? I want to buy it in the next week if I'm going to get it at all. Just let me know if you'd be interested in using it. Thanks!

So my weekday class, Anatomy and Physiology is OVER. THANK GOD!! I was so sick of going to school 2x a week during the daytime. Not really fun when you work overnights. Here's a pic of my best bud Penny during our final exam.... I'm happy to say that we both passed. I don't know my letter grade yet though.


By the way- now I'm down 17lbs. YAYNESS. Here are some recent pics of me and some of my friends.




Me and Chase , and then Me and Tom- aka Bam Bam

So it's now my rule- you come over to my place, and you ARE getting a picture taken with me. Goofy or serious, doesn't matter.

Drunken man in pink pants???

It's 1:00am and I'm spackling my bathroom so I can paint it in the morning.

**knock** **knock**
(Who the hell is knocking at my door? )
Me: umm can I help you? (don't recognize this man)
Man: Yeah, well, did you know someone is beating on your car?
Me: Huh?
Man: Yeah- I just watched him try to smash your car in with a shovel. He looked drunk.
Me: Okay?
Man: Your car looks fine but I wanted you to know.
Me: umm okay. (apparently he lives below me)
*we proceed out to my car, both of us in pj's and slippers*
Me: Well, atleast he had the courtesy to leave me the shovel.
Man: I called the cops for you. They're already looking for the man.
Me: How far can a drunken man walk without the sherriff's finding him? I mean, he can't even walk straight.
Man: I don't know. He was walking really slow but I came in to call the cops.
Me: oh well. Hey- here come the cops.
*6 sherriff cars pull in- not just B'Ville police, but the sherriffs.*
Me: you think you sent enough cops?
cops: Well we're just doing our job.
Me: oh okay. well my car is fine. here's the shovel.
cops: atleast they left you the shovel.
Me: that's what I said!
cops: did you see the man?
Me: no- I was spackling my bathroom.
cops: At 1am?
Me: yes at 1am. I do things like that. (do they think i'm LYING??)
cops: ummm okay.
*cops took our information and inspected the car*
cops: We're going to have someone drive around all night to keep an eye out for your car. This usually doesn't happen in your neighborhood.
Me: Yeah whatever- I'm up all night anyways.
cops: We'll find this man for you.
man: He's in pink pj pants and a white shirt.
cops: What?
man: pink pants.
cops: umm okay.
Me: Well, I'm done out here. I'm going inside. If you need to talk more come inside cause I'm too cold.
*cops sat there looking at the undamaged car for another 30 minutes*

What the hell just happened? It's like something out of a retarted dream. Cops are so challenged sometimes.

Yeah so, you F***ing man in pink pj's, get a life and new pj bottoms cause you look like a girl, and leave my car the F*** alone. You're lucky I didn't see your ass cause I would've chased you and kicked you in your head - or better yet, smashed your skull in with the shovel. HAHA. Loser.

BEP and PCD

Last night Cheryl and I went to the Turning Stone Casino and saw the Pussycat Dolls and the Black Eyes Peas. I had such a great time! The opening band, Flipsyde, just wasn't good. I could've easily missed the first part of their crap. I was so mad though. There are a ton of signs that say "do not bring cameras, etc". NOONE was checked before the concert! I had seats 15 rows or less from the stage- GREAT SEATS- and no pictures. I'm pissed. Next time I'm bringing my camera in no matter what! So, these are the only pictures I got.



I'm really glad that Cheryl and I developed such a good friendship. It's nice to have her as a friend and a classmate! Nothing like a good concert, great wine, and great friends. :)

Project Spectrum April Wrap-up

April was Project Spectrum's YELLOW and ORANGE month. I failed to post anything that was related to these colors because Blogger is once again, challenged. So here we go - better late than never, right?








Ahh.. Things that I love in Orange or Yellow. :)

No more Navy

I got tired of my old blog template. So, I have changed it. The links and everything were lost in the change, but hopefully I will be getting it all up soon. I also have to figure out how to change the picture on the top since it's actually something like 4 pics together, and how to make this template into 3 rows like my last blog. I find that 1 sidebar is just not enough!

I also put together one of the Music Lists that everyone is posting. It's hard to come up with what artists you want to put here, so I picked the last few CD's that I have either bought or listened to in the car.
Create your own Music List @ HotFreeLayouts!

Yeah, I know I have weird taste.

Ceremonies and Sadness

I know I neglect blogger most of the time. I'm such a slacking blogger! I want to back track for a minute.

On March 31st I had my committment ceremony for nursing school. This marks the fact that we only have 1 year left (yay!!) and we now committ ourselves to the healthcare field and pledge to be the best person that we can be. It truly was a life changing ceremony. The Father blessed crosses (our school's symbol- it's a catholic school) for us to wear everyday to remind us of our duty. This is me and Theresa, and me and Elaine. I love them both to pieces! Not to mention the fabulous hats....

On the same night that I had this wonderful ceremony, tragedy happened.
What's this you ask??

This is the JoAnns that just closed on the 30th of March. It makes me so sad to see it gone! I worked there for 3 years, starting the DAY that I turned 16. This JoAnns used to be across the hall from where it is now, and when I was even younger, they used to let me come in and roll remnant fabrics, straighten, drool, etc. They would pay me with JoAnns sweatshirts. What a deal! Before that, well, I guess I'm a JoAnns baby. I was born at 215 in the morning, and my mother didn't want to stay in the hospital because the food sucked. So, we got discharged and I was at JoAnns by 9am when they opened the SAME DAY I was born. How lame am I?? I feel like a part of me died when this store left... Atleast I have another one nearby.
