Glee.... there's nothing like it

I would have to say that Glee is my favorite show these days. That sounds awfully corny but if you just watched the Britney Spears episode, I think you would have to agree with me. I mean my goodness! It was phenomonal! Okay, maybe a tad on the sexual side, but those people can sing, and dance, and act, and it's a huge performance they are putting on. And something they've done this year is focus on people that are AWESOME (like Santana) so we can see more of them. Haha. Anyway, I'm not going to spend an entire blog session writing about Glee, but I'll just say watch it and your welcome.

I think I'm still sick! Last Wednesday night after work my throat was really sore, and then from then on until Saturday, I felt awful! But I felt fine for a few days, but now I feel it in my chest. I'm scared that I have something like bronchitis because I don't have health insurance so I couldn't possibly pay for medication right now. And I know I'm already getting Justin and probably Alyssa sick right along with me. Ugh. I feel bad. But I have so few times to actually see Justin these days, so I just say screw it. Whoopsies. Let's just hope this all blows over and that I'm healthy. :)

There's been talk about going up North and renting a cabin for a weekend, and that sounds wonderful. Especially this time of year. I mean the leaves are all colorful, it's brisk outside but there's someone to snuggle with, and I dunno. The whole thing is just magical sounding. I love it. I just have to make sure I have the money for it! I found out I like to spend money horribly. I mean I spent like $200 on clothing! What the flip! I'm insane! So I'm not letting myself buy things for maybe 3 weeks. or a month. or who knows! It's just that there are such pretty things out there that I would like to own. Haha. That's the problem. Man...

Yesterday I made baked ziti for the wonderful boyfriend and it turned out par. It wasn't horrible, but it wasn't amazing. Hopefully I can tweak it and it'll get even better. But then we went on a walk around Lake Harriet. Holy goodness! Its beautiful out there! Beautiful houses, beautiful people, beautiful animals. Everything. Even the hand sanitizer in the biffy smelled awesome. And we went at sunset so everything was illuminated in this charming gold color. It was a perfect end to a easy day. And then we went back to my place and played Gloom with my roomies Alyssa and Kassi! It was great. So I say yesterday was my favorite day of the week, EVEN though it's only Wednesday. I already know it was the best day!

Alright, since I don't feel well I'm going to lay in my bed all day until I have to work. Jealous? :)

Love

Fall has Fallen!

Okay, yes that is a dorky statement, but it's true! It's fall and leaves are changing colors and life is happy and cold and fantastic! Here's the problem with people (it's not as terrible as I'm making it sound!) we beg and beg all 6 or 7 months to be warm. While we are in our mittens and boots and hats, we shiver hating the slushy brown stuff that is found EVERYWHERE. But then.... then we get this glorious summer and it is plagued with... HUMIDITY. Evil word, I know, but it's everywhere. So then all the people that wanted the summer and wanted the sun and the warmth and the tan skin, well now they want cool breezes and something to keep them from melting. It's a vicious cycle. I'd like to say I'm above all this back and for stuff.... and I might be. Because the only two seasons I ever want in my life are summer and... yep you guessed it, fall.

There's something amazing about Fall. Sure, leaves are "dying" and the grass is "dying" and the flowers are "dying", I get the trend, but it's a beautiful sight to see. Things we be "reborn" into new and bright and happy things, but it's just a process. And goll, it's a beautiful process. And I mean in the season of fall there is my birthday (and obviously my sister too) and like 8 other birthdays. Then there is Thanksgiving, and days off of school, and football, and warm hot chocolate, bonfires, hay rides, amazing smells, sweaters and sweatshirts, camping, oh man, I'm too excited. At any rate, it's awesome. How can someone not love all these things?? Sure school always starts this time of year, and thankfully I'm not apart of it, but it's the beginning of something new! It's a time to see friends you haven't seen! Okay, obviously I'm an advocate for Fall. If you wanna argue, I probably won't argue with you, but hug you and make you something that will change your mind. :)

UPDATE: 24 days until my birthday! YAYAYAY!

Other update? Justin, the boyfriend, makes me happy. Our mess of a life has been going strong for over 6 months, and I'm liking it. Let's just say that the song "Parachute" from Ingrid Michaelson is probably a good reference to how I feel about him. That song is great ps, so you should download it! But yes, Justin finally got a job (well internship) and now he works Monday through Friday 7-5 or so and I work evenings. Somethings gotta change! I miss him when I don't get to see him. But I'm thankful we had a whole summer to hang out all the time and just be together. It's wonderful. The only thing great about him getting this job, well two great things is that he's happy that he has a purpose, and that when I finally do get to see him... it's exciting and amazing and I can't remember even feeling bad that I hadn't seen him in so long. Shoot.... I like him too much. :) Oh well

Okay, I'm out to lunch with a friend from work!

Love

Marriage and Internet... but not together

Okay folks, I will be back to having 24/7 internet today! It's going to be glorious, down right amazing and awesome. If you can't tell.... it's been awful not having it since May. I mean my GOODNESS it's SEPTEMBER! I'm on a super high freaky binge from it and I use it where ever I can. Outside of Bethel? Open that laptop! Drinking coffee at Caribou? Let's do it there too! At the boyfriend's house?? Screw talking, let's facebook! So yes, let's just say I miss having the opportunity to be on here. I want to write on my blog daily, check my e-mail so I know what's going on, and of course watch everything under the sun. I mean, c'mon, it's SEASON PREMIERE WEEK!!! And I'm obviously insane...

So I don't remember what I wrote last, so I'm not going to write a lot about things in the past. Like I went to the state fair for a fun-filled day, or that I saw WICKED finally! Yes, It's amazing, yes I got the whole "popular" song now, yes, I think Glinda and I have some similar traits, lol. The big things that have happened are basically Jenny and Andrew's wedding. What a long and exhausting but amazing time. I was fortunate enough to have some time off (AND be able to AFFORD it...) and hang out with Jenny while she did the million's of tasks she needed to do. And while I cried because I was so worn out from everything at the end, the wedding turned out gorgeous and stunning. There were so many wonderful friends there that I really wanted to see. And even though the wedding had more glitches than any other wedding I've been apart of, we made it work. So thanks to all the ladies out there who were crazy enough to be along for this adventure!!!

I'm going to go I know this is short but I have so many things to do today before work! So have a happy cloudy day and I'll see you again TOMORROW since I'll have internet! YAYA!

It's a Vikings kind of day

In less than SEVEN hours, my wonderful football team will be playing their first season game against the stupid Saints. Woo!! I'm pumped! because I work at a sport's bar, I think I'm even more pumped than I normally would be. But it's hard! Everyone else is jumping around like crazy. So it makes sense to want to do the same. GO VIKINGS!

Okay, enough on that, I am here because I'm wasting my time at Caribou and knew that if I didn't update soon, I, along with my fellow 3 readers, would go nuts! haha. So here I am. Updating you on this wonderful life.

First things first: I....SAW....WICKED. Oh my gosh. Seriously! Let me just say that it is phenominal! And NOTHING like the book for all you book readers out there. I haven't read the book personally myself, but I hear there are some SCANDALOUS sections in that book. As Justin said "It's a 'Disney-fied' version". And I couldn't agreed more. Maybe that's why I absolutely fell in love with it! It was funny and awesome and costumes were great, voices were even greater, and I FINALLY get why everyone loves that "Popular" song so much. Good heavens it was great. Plus Justin said i'm basically "Galinda" (The Ga is silent.... lol) and that was funny. We had some really wonderful seats thanks to Debbie! Yay! I suggest everyone see it. Unless you don't like plays and musicals. Then you should buy tickets and give it to someone who wants to go. :p

I live with Alyssa, have been finally for a month or so, and it's lovely. She likes to leave cabinet doors open. Hee hee. What a silly thing to do. Nothing annoying though. She's dead silent in the morning (or I'm dead asleep) and it works out perfectly. And since we have most of the same friends, and love the same things, it's like living with myself. Only better! I think I'd get sick of me. And she's great because even though I spend lots of time with the boyfriend, she is flexible and works with me, even when I don't deserve it. haha.

Boyfriend is good. He might have a job! Huzzah! He's very determined and has been working very hard to get a job he wants for a while. I'm impressed. He has an interview tomorrow and I'm excited because it seems pretty promising. It's all in God's hands in the end and we have to roll with the punches (that reminds me of an old Jo Dee Messina song.... love)

Jennifer's wedding is in T-minus 9 DAYS! SINGLE DIGITS!!!! AHHH!!!!! !(U$!)U$*!)$!@PI($!(*Y$@)(%*U@)(* I can't contain my excitement! It's been a long time coming and I can't wait for Andrew and Jen to start their lives together! And it'll be the wedding of the year! or heck, the wedding of all weddings!!! (Sorry John and Anna... yours will be runner up!) Okay, there are WAY too many exclamation points in this paragraph. I apologize. I'll simmer down. The wedding will be great and for all those who aren't coming..... you are for sure missing out. How many weddings let you sit on haybails and have a mini bar made out of old doors? That's right. Just saying.

Sometimes I feel like my blog is too fluffy. I never talk about politics or anything with meat to it. It might be due to the fact that my personality is a very vivacious one and it doesn't really want to deal with the reality of life 24-7. Isn't it nice to just take a break and not worry about it? I feel like it is. Shouldn't their be an escape from it? I think that's what this is. I mean granted, not EVERYTHING I write is all happy-go-lucky stuff, but I dunno... people need a little sunshine in their life.

That's it. I'm hungry hungry hungry! And I work in 3 hours so I gotta start doing things! Have a wonderful evening friends!
