| Book List 2010 |
[31 Dec 2010|11:59pm] |
Its January 2, and I'm setting up my list for the year. We'll see how far we get in another 364 days.
1. The Indigo Notebook -- Laura Resau. Finished 1/2/2010. I really liked this book a lot, though some of the events are quite far fetched. Definitely a bit of a coming of age story. The main character Zeeta goes about asking strangers deep thoughtful questions like "what's most important to you?" and in the end finds out what she really feels about what's really important.

January I kicked off the year with a bang at Taylor's with Angelica and J.C. two of the greatest people anyone could have as friends. We went all over and eventually Joe dropped me off at my car and I rolled into bed at around oh... 7 sometime. Also, I went to Cincinnati with them :D
February I made a trip out to California to see Brian <3. I had a great time and I miss him a lot.
March I took a trip to LONDON! I was there for about a week, I don't know what I did but I royally screwed up my back. Alex, the friend I was visiting, was very good about taking care of me since I wouldn't take care of myself. And I got to see my co-workers AND Rebecca and Andrew :D
April Josie and I headed to Canada for the first time, we went to Vancouver. On our trip we went Whale Watching and across the BRIDGE OF DOOM! (srsly. it turned out okay the Capliano Suspension Bridge) and we saw totem poles and went to a few museums. Then I went to Cincinnati area, again, to visit Jeff. I had a good time, we just relaxed and kept each other company.
May worked and danced, a lot
June worked and danced, a lot
July worked and danced, a lot
August Did nothing spectacular for my birthday. worked and danced, a lot
September Took a road trip with Josie up the west coast of Wisconsin to Minnesota, over through the UP and back down the eastern coast of Wisconsin.
October My Grandparents celebrated 60 years of marriage. We got together and went out to brunch with my family up north.
November Got together with my family for Thanksgiving.
December Got a second job: worked and danced, a lot. Missed Christmas due to the main job.

Been busy today. I got the dishes washed, laundry mostly done, bedroom picked up, bathroom cleaned and snow shoveled, but I still don't feel like I accomplished much today. I'm supposed to go out tonight, in two hours. The weather has gotten better, so that's good. I haven't left the house yet. And its cold out. I dunno if I'm up for it. Ugh.
I had some weird dreams this past week. Three nights in a row! One of them included a very strange trip to London with Josie, there was a guy climbing up some random building outside a tube stop. Then we got back to Milwaukee and I drank part of a coke before realising I was drinking soda so then I just drank the rest of it, because why not? Woke up feeling a little guilty.
There was a dream that included some weird get together with high school and grade school friends and seeing Marc Anthony eating at a mall, and then running into Marc and weird hugs and me being very cold towards him.
The third one, I can't remember right now... And I don't remember a lot of the details to the other two. Oh... wait, the third one was the in vitro fertalisation dream. Yeah... think about that for a moment. There was a guy, who's face I never saw, and it was the time in which they were preping me for receiving the embryos and I was scared. Very scared.

"Last Christmas" by Carrie Underwood |

Hey guys!
The new year is approaching and I thought it would be the perfect time to put up a new layout! :) I also loved the Self Photoshoot so I just had to do something with the pics ha ha! I didn't really change the setup or fonts or anything because I liked the way it was, but I changed other stuff. Hope you guys like it!

Its December 26th now... and I had a very curious Christmas. I worked both jobs on the 24th but the second one only until 10pm. Tiffany, one of the leads, asked if I was interested in going home early, and I said yes. She called the Supervisor on call and asked for me, they said "well she didn't ask" but one of the first shift people asked and they said no to first but possibly yes to the second shift. But no one said anything to me. Really?! Thanks guys.
I got home and sat on the couch and watched some tv. Slept for a little bit on the couch then headed off to bed. Waking up at 5 was annoying but I fell back asleep around 5:30 and then woke up at 12:30. Oops. I headed over to Toya's around 2 for lunch. We had cajun turkey, home made mac and cheese, greens, potato salad, rolls, ham, and sweet potatoes. It was very, very good. We played Connect 4, Spongebob version and Super Mario Brothers on the Wii and I helped them set up their Mii's for the Wii Sports... I headed off to my Mom's building to have dinner with her friends from college.
Ingrid has lived in the condo building for about 16 years, my Mom has been there almost 3. At our dinner was Ingrid, her ex husband Nate, their son Derek, his wife Megan and their daughter 18 month old Finley. We had ham, mashed potatoes made with whipping cream, butter, chives and garlic, and sweet potatoes made with bananas and a topping of caramalised pecans. Mmm!
I came home around 8:30 or so and played my Wii for a bit. Merry Christmas.
