About Time

August 31, 2009 at 10:19 am (All about the books baby!, Daily Ramblings, Thought of the Day)

I haven’t posted in a long time, I haven’t had much going on besides the same ol’ boring stuff as usual! This weekend we went to an awesome Pig Roast, the annual one Mel’s boss has, and we had a great time as usual! I’m getting more and more nervouse about making sure I have everything planned for the wedding that I possible can plan now! It’s 10 months away, but I feel like I should be doing more? Who knows! Anyway…I finally finished the Twilight series, and I read the first little bit of Midnight Sun on the authors website, but that hasn’t even been finished! So I’m sad that I don’t have anymore Bella and Edward stuff to look forward to int he immediate future! I picked up my Jane Eyre book again, and I’m glad I did it has captured my attention, and I will finish it next! I wish I wasn’t such a nerd but I LOVE to read, and I think it’s better then wathching to much NYC Prep or awesome reality TV, which I indulge in too often as well! 🙂

I hope everyone had a great weekend!! I look forward to catching up on everyone’s sites today, I missed Friday because I was reading the Midnight Sun draft online! 🙂

Eye Opening

August 20, 2009 at 10:05 am (Daily Ramblings, Road Rage!, Thought of the Day)

Yesterday I was coming home from work on the last highway only about 35 mintues away from home, I am in the right lane coming up on a subaru station wagon thing and all of a sudden he isn’t paying attention or someting happened. They started to veer off the road to the left and hit those bumby things that make noise when you hit them and a little further before he went to correct his mistake. He corrected to hard and went 80 mph into the guardrail! I have never ever seen anything so traumatic or devastating before, I pulled over but because I was ahead of them I just sat there to make sure someone had pulled over to help them. A bunch of cars pulled off to help, and I didn’t think it would be a good idea to reverse on the highway and run across when I would just be in the way. So I started to pull of and saw a state trooper police car beginning to turn around to get to the accident, so I instantly felt better about leaving. In the interum I had to swerve to miss this car when he over-corrected and it was beyond scary! I called my mom and I began to cry, and I re-hashed everything with her and ended up driving home just fine, albeit a little slower. What I don’t understand is why I’ve been so emotional lately, I have been up and down for the past few days and it is certainly annoying!! One minute I’m happy and tears of joy are present, then I’m just sad and tears are of course present again, and then I can get angry in a split second! Driving me crazy is putting it lightly! Anyway I guess the moral of my rambling is too slow down and pay attention on the the road and NOTHING else, please stop texting, brushing your hair, eating, or doing your makeup because it is ultimately at the expense of your life or someone elses!

What do I want to do?

August 13, 2009 at 12:04 pm (Daily Ramblings)

FromIBM 329

This picture was a mistake picture on my camera, but I love how it came out. This is the ceiling at Grand Central Station and I think it made my decision to try and start taking some photography classes when M. and I can afford it! I only have a Kodak camera, but it’s all I have and I am going to do the best with it. I have been pondering and worrying about what I want to do with my life so I think this is a start, I love to take pictures (when I can remember my camera) and I hope to be good at this! Any suggestions on where to start or how to work, I am an open book!

Daily Reading?

August 11, 2009 at 10:08 am (All about the books baby!, Daily Ramblings)

I got back from vacation and M. decided to take a side job about an hour and a half away and he wanted me to come with him because he didn’t want to drive alone, and we could spend time together! And on top of that I could go by a book to have something to do while he did a transmission! So I went with every intention of buying Breaking Dawn (because I am done with Eclipse) but it wasn’t there in paperback and I didn’t want to spend a small fortune on the hardcover when I prefer paperback! Anywho I started searching for something to read, Jen Lancaster’s Pretty in Plaid was just in hardcover so I moved on again! I decided to buy some classics that I haven’t read, I bought Jane Eyre and The Other Boyeln Sister! I’m just starting Jane Eyre, but I feel like I’ve missed out until now so I am going to try and catch up on all of the classics that I can stand to read!!

Any suggestions??

Traveling with the best of em’

August 7, 2009 at 10:39 am (Bitch, Bitch, Bitch, Daily Ramblings, Family, Gotta Love Men!, Road Rage!)

Alright, so here is my long awaited post about my vacation! If I was a professional at this I would have taken a TON of pictures, but I didn’t even take my camera out of the case I was so frickin busy! From the moment I got there to the Saturday before we left I was busy and a roller coaster of emotions! I cried when I hugged my dad when I first got there, I cried AFTER my sister got to the church in her dress and saw my dad (I dressed her and help her put on all her undergarments, but didn’t cry until AFTER all of that, wierd) it took me like 10 minutes to compose myself and another daddy hug! Then I had to try and pull it together for the pictures, and then cried again throughout the ceremony and almost tripped on the way up (in my defense almost ALL of the girls tripped, because we had one hand around the groomsmen arm and the other occupied with flowers so we couldn’t lift our dress on the way up to the platform). The ceremony was short and so was the reception (no alcohol or music as per her religious beliefs) people just ate and left! Then I finally got to spend time with my dad and family I hadn’t seen in 5 freaking years! Then Sunday we went out to brunch with my dad and step-mom and three step-brothers and then we left from Omaha, where you guessed it I cried again hugging my dad good-bye! Holy Crap who knew I could cry so much! And then of course I cried 6 hours into the trip because it finally hit me I was already headed home and my vacation was pretty much over! WOW did I just ramble with run-on sentences? Yep I think I did, it is what I DOOOO!!

Overall we had a great time and M. was a damn trooper putting up with everything! He said that we might move out to the midwest eventually, and that I shouldn’t count it out! YAY! I hope everyone has had a good week/weekend and I am slowly getting back into my routine of blog updating and stalking reading!

Thank God it’s Friday my head hurts from all the crying!

I’m back

August 4, 2009 at 8:56 am (Daily Ramblings, Family)

Alright so I just deleted two exclamation points off of the title, because I’m not as happy as I should be to be back home and relaxing!? 😥 I cried most of Monday the way home and yesterday was just depressing, I took a shower when I got home and couldn’t stop crying! I don’t know why I can’t just be happy about being home and everything this weekend going smoothly. I cried pretty much all day Saturday at my sisters wedding, it was harder then I thought it was going to be! And then I had to leave my dad and of course more frickin tears! M. said that he wouldn’t mind moving out west eventually, but if I feel this shitty about being away from my family and friends then how is he going to feel about leaving his?! UGH I just want to relax and I can’t stop thinking about this crap! Anyway…thanks for all the well wishes and the comments I will be back into the swing of blog reading by Friday. Tomorrow at work I’m sure it’s going to be hell trying to catch up and I will hopefully be able to surf the net and my favorite blogs Thursday into Friday! I hope everyone had a great week and weekend!!!
