I took this quiz after seeing it on my sister's website. I think it's pretty accurate, although I usually wake up by 11. So, it was an hour off. The description was good though. I love food. haha =D

Today was fun. I went to the river with Xena. I took her off her leash for the first time and let her go into the water. She was wonderful. She got in all the way and was a swimming fool. I swear, she's adorable while swimming. Next time I will make sure to bring the camera. I have to buy a ball for her. I was throwing rocks into the water and she was trying to catch them. Silly dog.

There's not much to write about. I must go make dinner now. =D

Have you ever watched the show Gossip Girl ? I have. And I will admit I watch it every week to see the newest gossip. I enjoy watching their pathetic lives running on gossip and rumors. Possibly I watch it because I have no drama in my life and I tend to keep it that way. But lately drama has been knocking on my door.

A couple people that I use to know and consider friends are now becoming real life Gossip Girls. Only difference between these two and the show is..well, they don't get professional hair and makeup. And their clothing isn't designer. Not to mention they are both adult men. It's amusing how the stereotype is that females gossip and pass rumors along as often as they change their underwear. Fact is, I know more men who cause the rumors and drama.

The only question I have is, why bring people that have nothing to do with you into your world of drama? I want no part of it. I won't join in. No matter how much you poke me with the gossip stick. I've been there - done that. There comes a time in your life where you have to grow up and put rumors behind you. I believe that gossip and starting rumors should be left for the high school kids. Let them enjoy their fun while they can.

Once you're a grown adult, it just makes you look pathetic and well, stupid.

So I ask you, do you know any real life gossip girls?

So today is suppose to be pretty bad. We're on a severe wind alert. Which probably means I won't have electricity later. Oh well. =/ I'll still have food. Hehe

I just got done making breakfast. I made bacon, eggs and frenchtoast. I thought it was rather tasty. I didn't eat any eggs..but Nick did. I had a yogurt instead. We didn't have any powder sugar..so the frenchtoast wasn't complete. =( Oh well. Maybe next time. Now there's a mess in the kitchen. Urgh I hate messes in the kitchen. Haha..only because I hate cleaning it.

We don't really have plans for the day. Only because I think it's stupid to go out in a big storm. Doesn't seem safe to me when tree branches and trees are falling over everywhere. =P

I can't believe how fast this month has gone by. Only 6 more days in it. Wow..Nick and I really need to start busting butt on packing. Yay, only 2 and half months left. =D I can't wait.

So, last week I babysitted Tonia's daughter Ashley. Which I love doing. She never cries unless Nick pretends to be a monster and scares her. Which I tell him not to do. She's such a good kid. She lovvves playing with Xena. And let me tell you, Xena can't get enough of that kid. Xena loves kids. If there's a kid around, ha, forget about me and Nick. She will have nothing to do with us. She loves playing with them. Which is a really good thing. Alright, alright. On with the pictures.

First, here's Ashley playing peek-a-boo with me. Isn't she darling?


Ashley petting Xena.


Ashley showing Xena a keychain.


Ashley looking at Xena's tongue.


Xena's tongue in action.


The stare down.


Ashley tackling Xena.


Hugs!


Boot to the face!


Night night time!



It was fun watching them play. I've never seen a dog put up with so much..and enjoy it!! Gotta love 'em both!

So, I've been playing a lot of Slingo lately. Haha. I even got Nick hooked to it. Except when he plays, he gets really mad when the devil takes his points or when he doesn't get any numbers. He starts yelling, "BLUE CHIPS!!" It's really funny. I asked him, Do you think they have a little camera that goes through the monitor and can see that it's you playing so they fix the numbers?? Of course he said yes. Haha sometimes he really makes me laugh 'cause he is so....retarded. =D

Haven't really done anything exciting. Just been sitting around relaxing. Nick has his drumset here now. Oh joy. It takes up the whole living room. Which is okay I guess since we never actually sit in the living room. It's just really awkward. He said he's going to put it all together and start playing. I wouldn't have a problem with it..if we didn't live in a one bedroom apartment. It's going to be so loud. Lets hope he gets to lazy to put it together. Considering I ask him to do all kinds of things..and he never does. I have to put the trash right by the front door so he will take it out. Hahah. Oh good times.

Anyway, I'm talking to my mom right now about her putting walls up in her room and painting the dining room. It's going to look so nice. She said they are doing it in March and April. Which means..right before I get there. I like walking in that house and seeing all the new stuff that they've done. It's fun to look at. =D

Anyway, I'm going to go back to convincing my mom into why I can't help. Muahaha.
