ouch

yep, I am truly sore now. my neighbor and I went for a 10 mile ride today. remind me again why I am doing this? my butt hurts.....

my new neighbor is cute! he moved in a couple of weeks ago, and being the good neighbor, I went over and introduced myself. later that evening, he came ove to sit with me on the front stoop to have a ciggie. we talked for a couple of hours that night. he's a pretty groovy guy. after our ride, we went to the draught house (a local pub) for free pizza night. (no, I didn't fall off the wagon...I just drank water and sprite. I'm a good girl :)) we talked for 2 1/2 hours tonight. hmmmm... will have to keep ya posted on that. vedy intedesting.

I'm passing out now, and it's only 10.......

lovely dogs

i forgot one more interesting bit of news...

i woke up this morning to find a beautiful present that my doggies were so proud of.

a dead bird. in my hallway. in pieces.

it was fucking NASTY.

thanks bailey and kenzie.

sorry

hey, friend (you know who i am talking to..)

sorry to copy your blog background. the one i was previously using was a little too light, and the writing was hard to read. and htis was the only other one i liked.

hi, i'm an idiot!

so, i remmbred what i wanted to say yesterday, at about 3am today.

i was going to tell you about how cool my new car would have nbeen, if i was able to gt it..

i was looking at a volvo c70. it's fucking BEAUTIFUL... unfortunately, my credit blows, and thus cant get a car loan. oh well... a gal can dream, right?? so now i am looking for them on ebay. i found a couple in New York and close to me here in texas. unfortunately, those are both already skyrocketing to a higher price than i want to buy. sniff sniff.

yesterday, i swam, biked and walked... im a little sore today. but im training for a triathlon, and i have been a bump on a log for a while now. so i am starting my new regimen now. heres my plan:

bike to and from school. (10 miles a day.)
swimm in the morning before doinig anything else (1000 meters ish?)
walking/running more often... finding parking that is further fron school, walking to the coffee shop. whatever.

the swim and bike part i am not too freaked out over... the running? that's a whole different story....

i am trying to decide whether or not i am going to try and take another class ov er the summer... i have to get two classes that i fucked up in a while ago off of my record. or at least with a MUCH better grade. so i am thinking about taking a physics course to gt thatt out of the way this summer. i dont HAVE to take it, but by retaking the course, and a calculus that i fucked up in, my gpa would jump from a 3.5 to a 3.8. the problem with taking this course over the summer is that it is a 5.5 week course... that means htat a chapter is covered eah day, there is a alab every day, and there are tests every monday am i just being psychotic about a gpa? or am i making a good decision?

gotta go ride (the bike that is...)

coooooooooooooooooool

i just checked my friends blog and noticed a groovy new background. so i decided to jump on the bandwagon and change mine too. i think i like her background better than mine, but too bad.

still can't remember what i was planning on writing earlier.

hi again!

sorry i have been off line for so long, busy times, ya know.

so i finished my finals, and so far i have A's in all my classes! yipeeeeeeee

i have a two measly weeks of vacation until the terror (school) starts again. my mom is coming to town this saturday, and i am not sure if this is a good thing or not... but she is coming, and i have no say in it. actually, i think this is a good thing, i havent seen her in a while. she's coming to town because IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!!!

so for mother's day my niece gave me a few gifties and the sweetest damned card ever. basically saying that i have given her such an opportunity with havin gher move in with me. she made me cry... sniff sniff. the little bitch has a heart! (please read that with tons of sarcasm... it is a joke. she's not a bitch, most of the time anyway.)

i have finished with one half of the watermelong purse... it's a little deeper than i had hoped, but who knows what it will look like after being felted. keep uour fingers crossed!

the joanne's fabric store around the corner is going out of business, so my niece and i hit it yesterday. the yarn selection wsa PATHETIC, but the cross-stitch stuff was awesome! i got three new cross stitch patterns and the stuff to make a bar stool cover for my friend that is moving to chicago. just what i need, more projects.

god, what else is going on? um... im thinking of tearing up my floors soon, i found a couple of guys that are willing to help me for cheap cheap! usually hiring people for house remodeling or whatever is expensive shit, but they are charging $1.50 a sq. foot. (typical cost? $3-$4 a sq. foot.) they are redoing my fave local coffe shop's floors, so i get to see their work. i alreayd told them that i would wait until those floors are finished before i hired them. and i would only hire them if a contract was signed. teehee, i HATE carpeting, and LOVE hard wood floors!!

i had so much that i wanted to write, but i have totally forgotten... ok, i'll have to write later. damn, i hate when that happens.
