New Things!

This past weekend my dad put together a cat playground that my mom got for my cats off of ebay. My grandma also sent me a quilt she made for my bed! Here are pictures! :-)

Zoey on one of the platforms.

The whole thing. They seem to like it!

My new quilt!

Again with a little mood lighting...;-)...actually I accidentally put my finger in front of the flash.

Close up of the middle flower. I put the sparkles on!

New Threadless Shirt!

I can't wait to get it! :-) If you want it, follow this link...you can get that one, among many others.

Have a wonderful weekend!

P.S. You can get one for your kids too!

Fun Night at PKs

PK's, a local pizza place and bar, has "Flippin' Thursday Night"...where when you order pizza's, you flip a coin (well, a manager flips a coin) to see if you get them for free or not. We got both of our pizza's free tonight! :-) Last time we went, we got all of them for free too. I think there was three or four.

Christin and her HUGE beer.

My Kevin. :-)

Dawn!!!

Dawn and Danni (I'm not sure how to spell her name, haha)

Trade!

Kevin has really been wanting the ipod shuffle I got for Christmas from my great aunt. So...they then come out with ipod shuffles in color! And I definately want a pink one. So Kevin gave me $20 for mine, and I am going to get a pink one! YAY! :-)

(P.S. I got him that sweatshirt the other day!)

AMERICAN IDOL IS BACK!

I do intend to do what i did last year and say what i think of everyone. But that won't be until the finalists are through, because I don't want to talk about TOO many people. But if I do want to comment about some, maybe I will.

And today, I was like to mention Sherman Pore. He was really sweet, and that was a really nice thing he did. If you missed his performance last night...here is a link you can see it at: http://www.rickey.org/?p=1736.

I hope you enjoy. I can't wait until the real competition starts going!!! :-D

My Boyfriend...the awesome photographer!

Kevin got a new camera recently, and he's been taking it everywhere with him, and plays with different picture shots a lot. Well, he has been discovered. Well...by a group called "Helluva Shot." And they posted him as one of the favorites!!! See it here...he's #16.

Here is his flickr photostream!

Check his pictures out!

Oh, and he does a podcast for the college we go to (Virginia Tech) and you can listen to it here. (He's the HokieCast)

Isn't he wonderful?!

Looking To Buy Trolls?!

Look no further than right here!

A Queen.

A King.

And the World's Best Babysitter. (great gift for your child's favorite babysitter!)

Click on the picture or link below it to go to the auction on ebay! Thanks!

*Family Guy* Monopoly

A whole day of fun...and it's not over yet.

We decided to leave it last night, and get back to it tonight. That's three hours of work right there. Kevin has hotels on the first row, and half of the second. I have hotels on the orange, and houses on the rest of that half of the board. Kevin is slowly building up houses on the two blue places. *AH* The last time we played, I had a hotel on the blue ones, and that pretty much did him in. The hotels along his haven't hurt me too much, but it prevents me from spending money to build more houses on mine, so I am insured that I have money for when I land on is 100,000 hotels. Haha. You'd think I'd have the advantage with the more expensive side of the board (excluding the blues though), but since the houses cost more on that side and he already has hotels...it's harder!

Anyway. I just felt like talking about it. Anyone know good strategy so I can beat Kevin tonight?! Haha

New Blog

Yes, yet another blog. But it's just for this thing I'm trying out that I saw online. Take a picture everyday for a year. And this is where I shall put them to share to the world. I'll try and find something interesting to take everyday. But I can't promise anything! Haha.

Enjoy.

Threadless Shirts!!!!

Hey! So I'm thinking anyone who views this should go here. Because if you buy, I get points. And when I get points, I get free money. Now who doesn't love free money? And who doesn't love to help out others to get it? It is the season of giving. So maybe a threadless shirt would be a good gift? They are unique and made by people like you! The process is...someone creates a design, the threadless world scores it, sometimes saying they'd buy it, if it gets a high enough score and enough people saying they'd buy it, then it will get printed. Then you get to buy them! That's where YOU, yes YOU, come in...search throughout the catalog, pick something you or a loved one or even a friend would like, then buy it! Here are some examples of what is available:

"Mozart Didn't Like to Practice Either"

"Day of Reckoning"

"Homework Evidence"

"Planetary Status"

Enjoy! :-D But please go through this link to help me out! :-) I'd do the same for you :-P

Next Semester!

I might of had a little too much fun making this. :-P Anyway, thought I'd share! Since I know the rest of the world cares...

Last Game for Seniors

Yesterday was the last game for the seniors. Well, besides the Bowl Game of course. We will miss them all!

Megan, Virginia, Wendy, and Meredyth -- Senior Bone Babes

Next Semester

So, last week we had to sign up for the classes we wanted for next semester. We don't know if we get them until after Thanksgiving Break. GOSH! Haha.

Anyway, here is what I want:

• Maps and Mapping (required...well, they are all required, but I HAVE to take this one, i can choose from lots of choices on the others)
• Introduction to Meteorology (YAY!!! I CAN'T WAIT!)
• Geography of the Global Economy (*shrugs* I don't know...but it seemed better than other choices)
• Geomorphology (I had to look up what it meant, but it's about land forms, and I thought it sounded interesting)
• Geography of Wine (I figured, why not! It should be interesting, and it's from 5-6:15 on Tuesday and Thursday nights, and Kevin is always with his dad then...so I can keep myself busy while he's out.)

That's it for now. I hope I can get them all! That is 15 credits, Kevin is taking 19...weirdo. Haha.

Most of my classes (all but one) will be on Tuesday and Thursdays. That is four classes! But, I don't mind. At least...right now I don't. Haha.

Stay tuned for me to talk about my trip up to Jersey for my cousin's wedding!

Fantastic Saturday Off

First of all, I want to show my excitment of the gas prices going down, by showing you a picture of it! haha. UNDER $2!!!!

Anyway, so yesterday Kevin and I went to his mom's for their Open House. We had some home-made BBQ and YUMMY brownies. We watched football too! :-P It's weird not having to go to a game after so many weekends being filled with them. Then we went downtown to Lyric's dancing in the street, and due to the rain, it was moved inside. So we watched the band, and they had the mask revealing after they had a mask contest. Which included pig masks to an exclamation point to popcorn masks. Craziness. Haha. Some of them scared me, but I had Kevin. Haha. After that, Kevin and I went over to Squires and played some pool. Technically I won all three times, but Kevin would have won twice if he hadn't hit the 8 ball in or hit it into the wrong pocket. Silly! Haha. I can't wait until we can use the pool table in the basement. I can't wait until the basement is finished and the HD TV is hooked up!!! YAY! We finished up with the pool when we were getting so hot no balls were going in at all, haha. So we went over to Dairy Queen and since Jillian was working, I got ice cream for free! :-D YAY JILLIAN! :-) We walked back up to Kevin's car and went back to his house and watched TV and stuff. It was a really nice day. I can't wait to see him today! We're going to have a lazy day. :-)

Random

So...I have the site meter, and it is now past the 7,000 mark. It went up a 1,000 in like...a week. Haha. I was looking though them, and it will tell me if someone googled something (like it'll tell me the actual search word they used) and came upon my site because of it.

People have been googling like..."bored monkey" and "runn" and get my site. They get some sort of picture that I don't have anywhere. Haha. It's so weird.

I just wanted to laugh about it on here. :-P

IF YOU ARE ONE OF THE ONES WHO HAPPEN TO COME ACROSS MY SITE PLEASE GO TO MY OTHER BLOG BECAUSE IT'S BETTER BEING THAT IT IS A WEATHER BLOG!!! haha: http://looking-towards-the-sky.blogspot.com/

thanks

Hokies win another one! 4-0

YAY! The game yesterday was pretty scary. But we pulled it off in a 29-13 win over Cincinatti! :-D

Kevin and I went to the motormile speedway last night. I never thought I'd get so into cars racing around in a circle...haha.

My Day

Let's have a my day blog...

I roll out of bed at about 6:30 and hop in the shower. I was sooo exhausted. After I got out of the shower it was straight back to bed for another half hour. I finally managed to get up for good and get dressed. I went downstairs, got on the laptop like usual, and printed out my journal due for Women Studies. I also looked through a people's magazine for an ad that are sexist or something like that. Haha.

I went and parked...the parking lot wasn't so full today! Yay to Fridays!!!! I waited for Kevin and we walked up to class together. We went to our selective buildings. Class was alright...we just talked about the ads and gender in the news, like we do every Friday.

After class I met back up with Kevin to go to Music in America together. He needs to not make the font on the slides so small. He also needs to slow down when he has a 1000 words per slide! Ugh!

Kevin had to go do homework, or study or something, so I got some spagetti from sabarro and went to work. I got there and my desk was finally moved! I'm so happy with our office now! (I share it with Christin.) I rearranged a few more things to make more room for both of us, and put all my trolls and stuff back up. I'm really happy with it. I also moved the computer down off of the desk so I have more room!!! AND I got a key so I can come in really early in the morning and get more hours! Hehe. AND I had my file folders moved in my office so I don't have to walk so far to get them. :-P

I finished up the spagetti for dinner and ran off to practice. GAME DAY TOMORROW! Practice went well...but Aaron brough Snickers and Rootbeer as his rank snack, and those are like two of my very favorite things. :-( Oh well.

After practice I went over to Kevin house, and we had fun. I finished all the cookies though. :-(

Tomorrow is up early for the game!

GO HOKIES!!!!!!!!!!!

p.s. GO TO MY WEATHER BLOG!

Pretty excited

I really like my new weather site. My boyfriend helped me with the layout. He's a total computer geek (which is totally adorable, by the way), so he knows what he's doing unlike me...so I might have him figure out what's wrong with the backround on this one. Or I might just totally change it. Who knows! Stay tuned!

But definately check out my weather blog. It's beyond awesome. :-P

And I plan to do great stuff with it weather wise. :-D

Especially if a hurricane will actually hit us. Haha.

With this site, I'll try and fix it and blog more! :-P

New Blog

Yay! New blog!

http://looking-towards-the-sky.blogspot.com/

check it out!!!!!!!!!!!

:-)

HOLY SHIT I'M WRITING A POST!

Let's see if Kevin catches this. :-P

Anyway...so I've been at VT for two weeks now almost. There has been a killer on the loose near campus, lots of reading, labs, and now RAIN. GAMEDAY is on SATURDAY!!! YAY! I can't wait.

I've enjoyed being in the MVs for real. Haha. Instead of just sometimes watching practices, and going to all the games and watching them march. Although, I get to have the fun without all the work. Haha, at least that's how it was yesterday. It's funny how some of the bones are all, I heard you partied with us in Jacksonville? Haha.

I'm out of practice with this...so...yeah...

Anyway...no one will read this anyway, so it doesn't matter!!!!!!!!!

:-D

I love Kevin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. I don't know what's up with the color problem on the page. *shrugs*
