funn weekend :D

took it easy thurs--we're tryin to do mexican on fridays now. i think we went to conyers to get dressers for our bedroom. then jarred and i ate @ folk's... disappointing. and expensive. =(

friday was awesome, as usual. i drank too much tho =( ugh.  jarred and i used to always do large pitchers and be fine, but lately we've been sticking with one small pitcher and have had the "perfect buzz," but last friday i guess it took us a long time to get our food, and we were waiting on ppl to join us, blah blah so we were sitting there for a long time... so i guess we felt the need to order another pitcher. big mistake. i pretty much just laid on the floor @ the house, lol. it was like a million guys (not really) just chit chatting away about who knows what lol and i wanted to listen to music and play. hehe. but kt left to see a boyyy and no other girls were with us, so boo =( i did text a lot though. haha. LOL the fri before last, we had 12+ ppl with us... we made "reservations" (they dont really take em on fridays) but somethin got screwed up so we had to wait for over an hour. they felt bad b/c it was their mistake, so they started serving us free drinks while we waited... crazy!!! it was cool :) they had to bring in lawn furniture to sit us all down. it was a really fun night!!! :D

anyway, saturday we were lazy. becky came over that night tho and we all acted like we wanted to do somethin fun but we ended up just hangin @ the house and watched the dark night. i really wanted to watch mirrors, but dave didn't want to =( o well. becky fell asleep like during the first part of the movie and i fell asleep the 2nd part of the movie! i was so tired. i love that movie tho!

sunday was my lil cleaning day. jarred cooked a big yummy breakfast, and then i started cleaning the downstairs living room. we sorted thru a ton of junk (papers, magazines) we had layin around... so cluttered. our house was so dusty. gross. i finally got to use the new vac tho!! it's cooool :) if i'm feeling up to it tonight i'm gonna try and clean our our bedroom. that's a HUGE task. ugh. i got some dressers from my parent's house so we can have more storage, i just gotta get in there and clean everything out. it SUCKS. there's so many things we need to do. what we REALLY need to do is get some new curtains, buy a new futon cushion, and get new sheets/comforters. blah.

gosh... so after all that cleaning, i was EXHAUSTED. but later we went to taco mac with josh and jerm. we had chips and salsa and the guys had a couple of drinks.  a stupid football game was on so everyone in there was going CRAZY. so loud. it's kinda ridiculous. ugh. but yeah yeah yeah, we WERE in a sports bar. haha. o well.

and today is MLK day, happy bday! everyone @ the house has today off... i don't! =( i wanted to stay home SO bad. but i have a doc's appt wed. so i hafta get off work early AND i'll prob take fri off.

man, last night i was scrolling thru pics on my digital camera and saw old pics from when we went to orange beach a couple yrs ago... it's been that long =( we looked so happy there. that is THE place. hehe. our lil vacation spot. i miss it SO much. and i'm really gonna miss that condo we'd stay in. ;( makes me wanna cry! i used to think we'd go there like twice a year... to that same spot... make some frozen drinks and walk to the cool lil mini golf place across the street... then go to tacky jack's @ night to sit by the water and listen to music... :) jarred misses it too. i might google some hotel rates in a min. to see if we can go in a few months or something. man that'd be nice :)

speaking of traveling, haha, we're planning on going to helen in march!! it'll be about 8-10 of us. i'm hoping.  we want at LEAST 8 ppl. and like 3 ppl are bein kinda... quiet/shady about it (when they weren't before) so i'm kinda nervous.  but it's like 5 definites for sure... and 4 ppl who seem to be "on the fence." i think we'll be able to pull it together by march tho... it's gonna be so much fun!! so far, if we have at least 8 ppl, it'll be under $40 a person for the whole weekend. and i found this one place where you get the 3rd nite free, so we're gonna go thurs-sun. and it has a pool table and hot tub!! woohoo!! i think we're gonna make 5 gallons of our famous drink and just sip on that all weekend, haha. idk if i can handle a whole wknd of drinking tho... phew. but i can handle a whole weekend of playin pool, cooking @ the cabin, sleepin in, hangin out in the HOT TUB, and bein with my bestest of friends :) i'm excited!!!

k, i'm out for now.... just wanted to update a lil. :D hope everyone had a great weekend!

so i got an email this morning... and one of the guys (i wanna say it was my photo teacher haha but i don't think it was.. i can't rem. his last name) who put on the russia study abroad program i went on, said he's trying to organize a russia trip this winter (right after christmas).  it sounds awesome! i emailed him with questions and to show him my interest, so now i'm waiting to hear back...

i'm so happy that someone is organizing this! i've been DYING to go back and i really want jarred to go (and he really wants to go) and i've been looking up lil travel deals and stuff, but it's so hard figuring out what to do b/c there's SO MUCH. russia has sooooooo much to do, and i don't think i'd be able to plan a trip by myself. i need help! i mean duh jarred would help, but since i've been there i feel like i know a lil more... i dunno if he could really help too much.  plus, it's gonna be sooo much cheaper if he organizes it, b/c it's not like he's looking for any kinda profit. he's looking for deals and he knows the best places to stay, etc. so all we gotta do is pay however much we owe... you know?

and i think anyone can go! so if any of yall wanna go... haha. i guess i could see if any of my roomies wanna go... that'd be awesome.  i wish it was for more than 2 weeks ;( that kinda sucks. but o well. i don't think i could afford it if it were any longer anyway. but then i was also thinking, we could go visit jarred's brother in germany too, maybe... we could extend the trip a few more days? we'll see. b/c we might be goin there this summer. i dunno! we have a lotta stuff to think about and it'll be here before we know it. it's exciting :D

but like, the russia trip i went on was $3,500 i wanna say. and that included 2 classes. AND it was for a month. so this one should be considerably less than that. i really hope so.  and what's even better about ppl planning the trip for you is everything's ready for you... you don't hafta set up the room, tickets to shows/museums... yayy :)

buttttttttttttttt one big downside to this trip is it's gonna be in the winter... IN RUSSIA. you know how freakin cold that's gonna be?!?! and i REALLY wanna go during the white nights ;( gosh. so we're not gonna be able to do some of the stuff we did on the other trip... like uh... roam around all night and day and take pictures and explore... lol. or take boat rides. blah. but, i know that seeing russia in the winter time is something worth seeing.

here's the email about the trip:

Read more... )

and i guess i shouldnt get too excited... idk if it's a "final" sorta thing. =[
wellllllllll anywayyyyy... just wanted to write about the exciting news. i guess it's good that jarred and i are starting to brush up on our russian :) woohoo! learning languages=fun and addictive. haha.

don't ya just love it?


hehe. we went to an 80s themed NYE party.  it was awesome! jarred went as tony montana.  the pics are up on facebook :D

things have been great!

~ashley just moved out, dave just moved in.
~we got us a new computer.
~the house is starting to look clean again (upstairs anyway).
~jarred's getting things for his studio.
~i'm going to help my mom clean out my old room @ their house on friday... and will hopefully get two of my old dressers (they're side-by-side dresser pieces... just tall, not wide) and one of my small bookshelves.  i really want to start organizing our room better (@ our house). it's SUCH a mess. i HATE it.
~i think we're goin on a cabin trip in march/april sometime... during the off season.  a buncha us! we had los loros last friday and were up bein our usual crazy selves lol thennnnn we went upstairs and we made breakfast! me and kt decided it would be a good idea to throw eggs outside. i went out in my socks and they got all nasty. ha. but anyway, that was so much fun. i love it when all of us are together!! so we talked about getting a cabin for a weekend... we have to get one with a hot tub and pool table! that's a must! so i'm gonna start researching cabins in helen soooooon.  i'm hoping we can get about 8 ppl to go. 5 of us are definite!

and things have been not so great ;( bad news...

my doggy, buddy, is getting older and older and older. i think he'll turn 15 this sept.  that's old for a rat terrier or any dog, i guess... i just looked @ an online conversion chart. it says he's about 82.  my parents came home from dinner thursday night and buddy was tryin to get off the couch to greet them but he just fell to the floor ;( he was moving around really weird, and they're pretty sure he had a small stroke.  he's gotten better since then, but i visited my parents and buddy on saturday and it was soo sad ;( his eyes are really twitchy and move around really weird... and he slants to one side and has a hard time walking. but apparently he was a lot better. i would have DIED if i saw him on thursday. i cried and cried friday night about it (once the margaritas really set in... but everyone was asleep/gone by then). well, he's doing better each day, but we don't think he'll make it much longer.  it's so sad ;( i love my lil buddy boy.

welllll anyway. hate to end on a bad note, but i gotta get back to work. so many lil projects to do.

oh yeah, here's some good lil news... i just bought/ordered the camera of my dreams <3 i'm so excited. can't wait to start using it. jarred helped me to finally get it! i found a really awesome deal too... now i just gotta wait about a week before i can start playing with it.  bleh! it better come fasttttttt!

hard to believe christmas is almost here! i'm SO excited to give jarred his presents... i was gonna get him tickets to kooza (Cirque du Soleil) but he saw an ad on TV for it and was like OMG WE HAVE TO GO TO THAT! JEREMY YOU WANNA GO WITH US? hehe. and i was planning on getting him tickets to that a WHILE ago b/c he had forgotten that they were coming, but recently they've been showing a lot of ads for it b/c it's coming up SOON.  so, i went to my backup plan which will be just as awesome and even MORE awesome b/c he'll be totally surprised. so yay!  we'll still go to kooza though... tickets are soo expensive so it's probably best if we split them. and i was just gonna get tickets for me and him, so now other ppl can go with us if they want and we can all sit together. it's gonna be amazing. can't wait.

well we had a good weekend! :)

thursday we did the usual los loros... but it was just me, josh, jerm and jarred. and we only had 2 small pitchers btwn us all. it was a low-key night :) we weren't gonna get anything @ all (except food duh) but we couldn't resist. :P it was nice!

i spent all friday with my mom. we tried to get some christmas shopping done and all i got was a pair of socks for my dad LOL. i had an old bath & body works gift card i wanted to use up and it had like $30 on it. plus i had a "free item of your choice" coupon. well, i got 3 handsoap dispenser thingies for the bathroom, a new loufa and a pair of socks. my dad LOVES those socks with the "non-slip" rubber thingies on the bottom. hahaha. so i got him a nice pair of those... they're really soft.  so i guess he can wear those around the house if he wants.  i should prob go back and get another pair for him and more soap so i can use up the rest of my card.

i also got 2 shirts that were soooooo cheap @ kohls... one shirt was actually 80% off lol. and they're both dressy so i can wear em to work or something. yay!  thennn i got a cheapo pair of leggings @ forever 21. they're kinda long so they get all bunched up @ the top ;( o well. grr. jarred thinks leggings make me look like peter pan. teehee. my old pair of leggings are shorter (like capris? mid calf), and at least these go allllll the way down to the ankle like i wanted.

then @ dillards i got this purdy purple dress for the christmas office party! :D
more more more...! )

i realized that i haven't updated in a lil bit!!

our halloween party was AWESOME. soo many ppl showed up... we were happy. we had 10 gallons of liqour-drinks and maybe 1 gallon was left over.  we also had about a gallon or more of a new drink we made up... it was a BIG HIT. it was wiped out FAST.  it was so yummy. we wanted to make it red ("bloody") so we could put fake dead fingers floating around in it, hehe. it was cool.

so the party was a huge success. it's weird tho b/c the ppl who said they were DEFINITELY coming, didn't. and the ppl who were "on the fence" CAME. i wish the definite ppl came tho.. that was sad ;( but at least i got to see a lotta ppl i hadnt seen in a while. it was definitely a good, happy, fun group of people so there wasn't any drama (that i know of), no fights, nothing... just a good ol' party :)

our house was a DISASTER afterwards tho... ohmygosh. it's never been that bad. and i can't believe how much stuff ppl left behind! but man, people can be pigs! lol. i was shocked when i woke up the next day and looked out the window to only OUR cars there... i guess i did wake up late, but still... usually there are a few cars left from ppl staying the night. butttt we did "make" people park on side streets this time, so maybe that explains some of it.

so yep, fun fun.  since then we've just been hangin out and stuff. still doin' our weekly los loros routine. haha. we're tryin to do it on weekends now... so different ppl are showing up, it's fun. :D

over the weekend we went to jarred's dad's house in alabama and spent all of saturday hangin out with his family. they cooked some goooood food, mmm. it has been good seeing jarred's brother. it's gonna be sad when he goes to germany :( we'll just hafta visit him!! no problem there.

so lately it's been a lotta family & fun time. :)

i think christmas this yr is gonna be pretty small. jarred and i are both hurting for money =( it sucks. plus his truck just got crushed on the side (long story... involved a stupid parking deck) and it looks pretty bad... so now he has to get that fixed.  never fails, every time he gets paid it has to go towards some big, unwanted purchase.

but i think i know what i'm gonna get him this year and i'm realllllllllly excited about it :D i would really like for us to go on a trip together... since that NEVER happens, but it's so expensive ;( i really wanna take him to gatlinburg and to the aquarium there... maybe we can swing it in january or something. gosh there are so many things we wanna do and see, but we're so poor, lol. GRRRRRRRR stupid money! i've seriously been eating ramen like all month for lunch. i'm sure it's helped tho, but i'm probably eating the most unhealthy crap ever, haha. i'm gonna start making soup @ home @ night and taking it into work the next day.  but mmm today i had a side salad @ chickfila and it was only $2.22 and filled me up! :)

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh gosh! and last night was the season finale of the shield!!!! SO sad it's over ;( jarred's favorite show... aww.  i'm so glad he introduced me to it tho... it's awesome! it was a great finale, but i'm so sad it's over... there's so many questions i have about what happened to each character! they're talking about making a movie outta it, but i kinda hope not? it can either be really good or really bad/stupid. it worked for sex & the city, but i dunno if it would for the shield... i'd watch it tho!!

hope everyone has a great/safe thanksgiving :)

my friends, aren't you glad we don't have to listen to mccain anymore? :)

jarred and i walked right on in to vote last night @ like 6 and it took all of 5 minutes. woohoo. :)

we're sad that altaf didn't win for ga senate :( booo. we tried though. we got more people to vote for him, so we did what we could.

man... for those of you on myspace and facebook, have you been seeing ridiculous status updates from ppl about the election?

here's some on mine...

"[name] just wants to make sure that everyone knows OBAMA IS NOT BLACK!!! He's not your 'negro', your 'home boy', or your 'nigga'. He's a MAN that's our next president."

"[name] NO MORE WHITE HOUSE....ITS THE BLACK HOUSE! They wouldn't give us 40acres and a mule, so we took 50 states and The WHITE HOUSE!!"

"[name] is wondering if Obama is now our president because people wanted to make history or if they believed in someone who is going to run our country for the next 4.. "

"[name] wouldn't give a 7 year old the keys to an automobile...so why did America hand the free world to a rookie?"

sigh...

i'm SO excited about our halloween party saturday!!!!!

i promised to NEVER EVER cave in and buy a skanky costume-in-a-bag, but i did anyway, haha. i alwaaaaaays make my own costume or whatever, but this year i really wanted to be a ladybug for some reason! lol.

here's what i got:


too cute! :) they only had XS left tho =\ so it's kiiiinda too tight, ugh. and i've been eating WAYY too much halloween candy lately (ppl keep giving it to me @ work!) so i'm gonna hafta stuff myself in it. i really need to start working out more.

so over the weekend, btwn me and jarred, we saved about $100 on halloween decorations for our party =) yay!

we've been decorating a lot... or trying to anyway. we're putting black trash bags all over the walls and ceilings lol. the house is gonna be sooo dark... all the normal lights have been switched out to green, black and red bulbs and we're gonna have 2 blacklights along w/ all the stringed lights we have. it's cooool. i even bought a big scary clown you hang from the ceiling!!! eep. it keeps freakin us out, haha.

anyway, last week we went to cafe istanbul for josh's bday! we sat on pillows on the floor and smoked outta the hooka. we thought belly dancers were gonna be there, but they weren't :( SO SAD. the food was really good tho and we still had fun.  then of course we went out and partied in east atl...

on halloween we were still tired from josh's bday so we just decided to stay in. it was fun tho! we passed out candy to the lil kiddies (so cute), watched scary movies and drank some cheap wine (with crackers, cheese and pepperoni!). :)

on saturday we spent the day racking up on halloween decorations on sale! it was funnnn. =) then we went to this new italian restaurant by our house, it was really yummmy. oh and jarred bought me the seinfeld scene it! game :) YAY! can't wait to play that!!

i can't really think of anything else to 'report' lol, but things have been great! =) i'm so so so excited for our party saturday... i think a bunch of friends are coming that i haven't seen in a LONGGG time. i'm ready!!

OMG and @ party city they had these lil boy shorts "undies" and jarred got these red ones that say "jump my bones" and it has a lil skeleton on em and i got a pair of solid black ones that have a big white skull and crossbones on the butt... so those will be my shorts under my costume lol. but yeah, jarred looks HILARIOUS in them. they're SO SMALL. hahahaha. so he's gonna wear those with some thermal pj's over em and a cape. that's his costume. hahaha. and i'm sure as the night goes on and the drunker he gets... the pants will come off and he'll be runnin around in boy shorts. at least the house will be really dark!!

is it bad that i'm not voting this year because i hate/don't trust both candidates?

oh well. i was going to vote for chuck baldwin but i dont think he made it on the ballot. bob barr did but he's a nut job.

lol jarred and i were going to stand in line for 6 hrs just to vote for Altaf for GA senate. i hope he wins w/o our votes :(

i know everyone's like, "GET OUT AND VOTE RAWRRR NO MATTER WHAT!" but i just can't vote on people i don't agree with. and i'm not playing the "lesser of two evils" game. if i don't support someone, why vote for them.

i really want to post jarred's latest myspace blog on here, but i doubt anyone will read it. but i guess i will anyway... it's under the cut.  i hope you do read it, even though it "looks long." he writes well and it's informative, easy to read, so yea... please read it!

i really hope ramen noodles aren't like the worst things you can put into your body b/c that's all i've been eating for lunch for the past 2 weeks, lol. trying to save money by cutting lunch costs, it helps so much.  i used to eat out for lunch almost every day (when i didn't have leftovers from the night before or something) for a little while, and that was about $6 each time. that really adds up! and noodles are practically free, and they fill me up, so yay. and they're so good! i'm eating the oriental ones now, mmm. my favorite is chicken flavored tho. hehe. i also used to buy those little bowls of soup for each day, and that surprisingly adds up... those run about $3 or more and actually leave me a little hungry so i'm DYING when dinner rolls around.  oh and over the summer i was doing pb&j sandwiches for like a month hahaha, it was SO GOOD. mmm. i remember on big brother they had to do that and they'd whine and whine and whine about it. i think i could actually do it. i love pb&j. now they have slop :P

well this weekend i'm going to my first halloween party of the year. i still dunno what i'm going as. i'll prob just pull something together from my closet :( how boring. hopefully i can come up with something cute tho. october goes by way too fast... i really wanted to get a jump start on my costume stuff this year but it just kinda zoomed by and now i'm left with nothing!  we've been doing a lot of costume-hunting, but jarred and i both are always trying to be SO original that it makes it so hard to find stuff. i wanted to do some shopping on my lunch break, but UGH there is NOTHING where i work! it's so weird! there's practically everything else around here, but no halloween stores and not even a party city. it sucks. next friday (halloween) i'm not working so maybe i can do some shopping then, but it's gonna be a MAD house so that sucks, and everything will be picked over and i'm sure all the small sizes will be gone. our party is the 2nd weekend of november, so like i still have plenty of time to figure out something for that, but i wish i had something to wear to tomorrow's party. maybe we'll do a little shopping tonight or tomorrow during the day?

but first... tomorrow we're going to see jarred's brother's new baby! :) jarred's brother and his wife are coming into town so we get to see their 2 girls and the new baby boy. i can't wait! :) i guess we're meeting them for lunch and then heading to a lil kids costume contest for the kiddies... that'll be cute :) then later that night is the party... so maybe in btwn that stuff we can shop, haha. ahhh...

i dunno what we're doin tonight. we got invited to go to netherworld with a friend but it's like $30 and i'm sure i'd be so scared i'd leave right in the middle and it'd be such a waste of $$$ lol. jarred and i talked about goin to see a movie... there's so many out that we wanna see! ugh movie tickets are so expensive now... it sucks.

well anyway, that's lil update from me. i know it's been a while so i thought i'd check in, hehe.

oh and PS: our 2 year anniversary is next tuesday!!!! i'm excited! :D

the weekend was fun and we got lots done!

so we're pretty broke at the moment. i swear every time jarred gets paid at least half of it has to go to some outrageous bill =( or an unexpected purchase like a ticket (he didn't have his address changed on his license... that's actually a pretty ridiculous fine, wtf). ah so anyway, we're trying to eat cheap and stuff, but it's hard! we're also trying to cut back on stuff like buying tv seasons and movies and cds but ughhhh so many good things have been coming out lately (b/c everything always comes out in september it seems like) so we've been splurging. =\

halloween is on a friday this year! yay! pretty sure we're gonna have a party, so gotta figure out when to do that... i'm sure actual halloween day isn't a good day to pick b/c we'd be competing w/ a million other ppl lol.

for a while i've been saying that i'm gonna be hannah montana LOL and jarred's gonna be my biggest fan (decked out in hannah gear). but idk! i really want jarred to be "bad santa" (movie) b/c he'd be perfect at it... hehe. i've always wanted to be a "white trash" bride, but i ALWAYS wait til the last minute EVERY YEAR. i already see halloween stores open, so maybe i'll get on the ball and actually do things early for a change!

hhmmm... oh! we got paid for being extras, finally! i got $71, yay! for some reason i got paid a lil more than everyone else... lol. no clue. maybe they felt sorry for me since i pretty much got sun poisoning lol.

aw man, how about this weather??? it's SO cool outside, i LOVE it. i'm so excited for fall. october is my favorite month EVER and fall is the BEST so i'm so excited about this time of year. hard to believe that before we know it it'll be halloween, thanksgiving, then christmas. ALREADY!

decatur high school, the high school walking distance from us pretty much, is having their first game this friday. we're thinking about getting drunk and going over there to cheer and eat cheap hotdogs, haha! i'm pretty excited. that would be really cool if they were awesome. i just like the whole football atmosphere... the band, cheering, food... man, remember going to HS football games while you were in HS? i loved that feeling. and the weather... idk, there's just something about football season that i love.

ah anyway...

so jarred and i are pretty sure we're gonna open our own business lol. i've always always wanted to (it's in my blood! lol) and honestly i cannot see myself out in the corporate world. is that weird?? i've never been able to see myself as one of those ppl. i see myself having a business. just like my parents. it's HARD work. harder than working for an actual company and it actually becomes your LIFE for probably about 5 years until it gets "settled" but still... my parents are so sick of having a business lol b/c they feel so tied down to it. i think they're trying to sell it...

so we've been seeing some places for lease in downtown decatur, which is PERFECT for us. location is great. there's this one building that has another building right next door for lease and we want jeremy to put his bar there, lol, but jerm said that it's gonna be a couple more yrs til all that happens. :( booooo.

anyway, what's next is just doing a ton of research. thankfully, i have my parents to help w/ all the fine details since they've done this for many many years. :o)

alright, guess i better finish my lunch and get back to work!

**sorry if this offends anyone, i'm just venting**

i am SO sick of hearing about how "great" sarah palin is. please.

seriously, what is so great about mccain/palin? @ first i thought obama had it in the bag, but now i really do think that mccain/palin is gonna win.

i am just in complete shock over how much attention they've been getting and how many SUPPORTERS have just come out of nowhere. at first it was ALL about obama, now it's all about mccain (but mostly palin, i think). i think for the most part ppl still hate mccain's guts, but now that lil ol' hockey lady has shown up, who is a LOT more likeable, ppl are OK with mccain. ugh. things will be SO much more worse if he's in office. seriously.

what i wanna know is why ppl want to continue the war? if mccain's in office, we're going to be at war for MANY more years... he has said that. and i will NOT be surprised if there's a draft. it just drives me nuts that ppl are all like "blah blah blah bring home the troops! stop this endless war!!!" and now everyone is all "GO MCCAIN!!! OMG!!! WAR!!!!"

i know i know i knowwwww.... ppl dont want to bring the troops home right away b/c they're "scared" that if we do then we'll get attacked INSTANTLY. so let's just "KILL 'EM ALL!" but c'mon ppl. what were we thinking in the first place... we're not gonna get rid of everything/everyone, and we're just making more ppl mad... so even if we do keep going and going and going w/ the war, we're still a target. lol i think we're an even bigger target now. we're being assholes. and let's not get into a 9/11 debate... that's a whole 'nother entry and jarred is best at explaining that (and everything) so maybe i'll let him write something, haha.

anyway, i'm sticking with the constitution party and i'm voting chuck baldwin. i know there's no chance in hell, but i agree with him the most and i want to show my support.  i wish ron paul was still on the ticket, but baldwin is a great 2nd pick. i also do not believe in voting for the "lesser of 2 evils," so that's just ONE of the reasons i'm not voting for obama. 

either way, this country is just goin to hell, haha. 2012 is lookin scarier and scarier...

by the way, mccain isn't pro-life like he says he is, if that's one of your reasons for voting for him. he'll say, "yes, i'm pro-life, but i respect ppl's choices and what they do." --- that's pro-choice. i understand what he's saying, but when you say it like that it means that even tho he does not LIKE abortion, he thinks it's ok for ppl to make their own decisions on what to do w/ their own body.

all i gotta say is i hope to god mccain doesn't win. good lord...

i'm not too sure if i've written a real update in a bit, but here goes...

still haven't gotten paid for the movie extra gig, lol. hopefully soon...? we could REALLY use the money.

gotta new phone! my "new every two" finally came up! i cant believe it was 2 yrs ago when i got my white chocolate phone... i was still in the old apartment. wow. i remember everyone always thought it was an ipod, lol. anyway, several months ago someone spilled beer on it so BOOM there it went and ashley thankfully let me borrow her old phone (which was really cool) til my update came along :)

i got the LG enV. it's pretty! i got spoiled on the "qwerty keypad" on ashley's phone, so i had to stick with it this time around. i really really like it tho. and on the outside it just looks like a normal phone so jarred can text the "old fashioned way" still if he needs to use my phone, hehe. :o)

in other news... our house got broken into several weeks ago.  stole 2 of my laptops, my $$$ drawing pad for my mac, and almost stole my camera but forgot it on top of the fridge--i guess while they were diggin around lookin for food and booze they sat my camera up there and left it, thank god. they stole my bottle of rum, but it prob only had like 4-5 drinks left in it, and they stole our new bottle of vodka and who knows what else.

they also stole my roommate's nice tv, laptop and camera. =( they tore up 2 of the bedrooms.  the upstairs backdoor was left wide open when they left and they busted out one of the downstairs windows. jarred and i both got home at the same time that day and found it all... luckily lil loner cat was just sitting at the door waiting for us to come in. we were so scared that she got out! it's also a good thing that ashley's doggy wasn't home that day--her dad took him so he could dogsit for a few days for fun.

but anyway... the investigator was really nice and is doing a lot to help us out, so hopefully something will turn up soon.

over labor day weekend jarred and i went with his mommy to panama city beach florida to camp out for a couple of days... yeah, i dont recommend doing that! lol. it was SO HOT. we never even stayed in the tent =\ we got there late friday night and stayed at a hotel. saturday we checked out and went to walmart for camping supplies. we set up our tent and allllll that stuff and then went to the beach. jarred's mom went fishing. jarred and i huddled under the umbrella wearing shorts, t-shirts, sunglasses, and hats to make sure we didn't get burned LOL, but ahhhhhhhhhh it was SOO HOTTT. i mean duh i know the beach is hot, but i've NEVER been to the beach when it's THAT hot before. it was insane.  anyway, all of a sudden it started raining... and it was FREEZING rain. so it pretty much flooded lol and by the time we made it back to the tent it was soaking wet, blah blah and all our crap we left out was wet. soooo we packed up what we could and went out to look for a hotel for the night lol.  so once we got all of that settled we just made sandwiches at the hotel and jarred's mom went to bed. jarred and i did at LEAST get to walk on the beach at night... for a longggggg time, so that was nice. the next day we just checked out, walked on the beach, and went home. lol. the trip was kinda a bust, but o well. jarred and i are prob gonna try and go back to the beach in november when it's cooler and not so crowded :) there were so many things we wanted to do but couldn't!

other than all of that, things are alright i guess! new seasons are starting up for our fav shows, fall is just around the corner, and we still have our family nights :o)   ---oh, and mine and jarred's 2 yr anniversary is october 28th, can you believe that? soon!!!----
