Chocolate Dreams

I know that I should very well be in bed asleep at this moment in time, but I'm not.

Mom and I went shopping today, and we both got some phenomenal clothes, and deals on them too! I love my mom, and we have so much fun when we go out together.

I'm tired of 21 hours of classes, but I know I'll miss them when I graduate.

By the way, check out the new quotes I added to the right side of my page! I love it!

Failure is Fun

So I'm keeping this blog for a little while longer. I was playing with the other one, and it frustrated me too much. lol.

So, referring to the title of my post, why do we love to watch celebs fail? I finally found Britney Spear's VMA performance, which was an utter train wreck mixed with a volcanic eruption of embarrassment. In a way i feel a little sorry for her, but on the other hand i find it so very fascinating that someone would be brave/stupid enough to display themselves in public in the manner Spears does. And it doesn't even bother her! it's crazy.

Yeah, i'd like to write more about this, but i should REALLY get back to my homework.

just thought i'd spill some random thoughts! haha

why not jump on the band wagon

So I'm thinking of moving blogs again. it'll have all of my old posts, but i'll have more creativity options. let me know if you want the new webpage... but i may still update on here. who knows

"Dandelions Sunscorched"

Michael took me on an incredible date Thursday! We went on a dinner cruise on the General Jackson Showboat! He works there, but he got free captain's tables tickets. It was an amazing time! He bought us a bottle of wine, and it was really romantic! We don't go on extravagant dates very often, but this was fantastic!

In other, not so exciting and happy news, classes start Monday...all 21 hours of them.

Also, Michael's car broke down today, and it needs radiator work done. He took my car to work tonight, and we aren't sure what he's going to do about the rest of the week, since it needs to go to the shop, but it'll get worked out.

When it rains it pours...

Speaking of rain, it actually rained here last night! It wasn't near what we needed, but it was actual rain, and I'll take whatever I can get!

That's it for now. There is so much more going on, but for some reason I don't feel it should be divulged for the entirety of mankind to read on the internet.

Rain? What's that?

Oh my goodness we need rain! It has been obscenely dry here all summer long...and I'm really worried about the farmers and what they are going to feed their livestock this winter. I know that many of them have already been feeding hay most of the summer, and since we haven't had rain, the grass hasn't grown for more hay to be bailed. It's a really sad thing. Food prices are going to be outrageous this winter...especially corn.

I have officially brought my wedding dress home! I'm sooo excited! This is becoming more and more real everyday!

I have bad news in the school sector. I'm now having to take 21 hours this semester to graduate, thanks to my minor (mis)advisor. Not cool. But I am bound and determined to graduate this December!!!

School is starting in a few days, and i'm so stressed. I know it will be ok, it's just going to be difficult.

So much is going on, and everyone is so stressed. I'm ready for people who are insanely happy. I never thought i'd say that...

It's Like Groping in the Dark

There is 10 months and 28 days until my wedding...and even though I'm THRILLED, I'm really worried at the same time. The thing that worries me is how it's going to get paid for. I know that God will make provisions, and He knows what He's doing, but it's just hard to let go and let Him do what He does best. The unknown has a way of scaring the bajeebies outta me.

I just wish I could focus on the happiness of the whole thing, and enjoy it, rather than fret about it.

Have I mentioned how much I hate the hold money has on our lives?!

Sometimes You Feel Like a Nut...

Look! Another update! Haha. I went to campus today for a meeting I had for my Problems in Ag class. I think I'm going to enjoy this class. I will be on the Dairy Products Judging Team, and I'll learn how to judge milk, ice cream, yogurt, cheese, and cottage cheese. I'll also get to go to Chicago in Oct, and HOPEFULLY to Las Vegas too!!! All for free!! Excitement!

So we think we know what's wrong with the cat's butt, but trust me, it's gross, and it involves her having a bug inside of her that came out the hole. Ew.

Ok, so it wasn't much of an update, but it's better than nothing!

Oh, and I talked with my ag econ prof today since I saw him while I was on campus, and asked him whether he had changed his mind on calculators. The conversation went something like this:

Me: "So, have you decided to rethink the no calculator rule?"
Him: "Well, I'm still trying to see what else I can do to make my students' lives absolutely miserable. So I've decided for all of my tests, I'm now requiring my students to write the answers in their own blood."
Me: "So will this be finger blood, or blood from our jugular?"
Him: "I'll let you decide."

So I've now determined that I'm slightly disturbed because I haven't figured out how to read him...and I'm pretty decent at reading people...this shall be interesting.
