Baby Shower :]

So I realized that I do not know how to add pictures to this thing. But someday I will learn, I promise. Amber and I went to Katye's baby shower this past Saturday. We may have gone a little crazy with the baby shopping, but then again we always do. Guests: Mommy, Abby (Katye's almost 2 year old), Bren (Katye's mom), Melinda (Katye's aunt), 3 neighbors, Amber, Nicholas (Amber's almost 5 year old son) and yours truly. Captions below pictures :]
Abby opening the present that Amber and I bought for her!!
Josiah's cake! By the way...that's what Katye is naming the baby!
Mommy and Abby! She is so stinkin cute :]
Me, Mommy, and Amber! She hates people touching her belly.
Nicholas feeding Abby tiny bites of cake!
DIAPERS! Katye was really excited about these!
Katye is really digging monkeys for Josiah!
Abby coloring with Amber. We were playing games and she tried to color all over our papers :]

After the baby shower we went to dinner with Amber, Nick and Nicholas and then the four adults went to see The Last House on the Left (not recommended for young audiences!) But it was fun to get out and hang out with people our own age. Plus Nick and Justin hit it off talking about movies and video games. I see a friendship budding :]

Today, I have an appointment to get my eyes checked. And then the tedious task of picking out new frames begins. I have been playing around in the Vision Center at work and I have decided I look best in thin wire half frames or glasses that have no frames. So hopefully that narrows down my choices. And I might even look into ordering sunglasses :] woo hoo!

Procrastinating

I have been trying to write these papers for my class tomorrow...and I can't seem to stay focused. The days of sitting around and reading by the fireplace with some coffee are days long past. I can't wait until it it nice enough outside for me to sit on the deck in the crisp morning and read my book! That's my favorite!!

We didn't do a whole lot this weekend. I took the reading part of my PPST exam. I will get the results in about 3 to 4 weeks. For me, that is not soon enough. I wanted to know as soon as I filled in all of the circles with my no.2 pencil :] I will check everyday until I know if I passed or not :]

We spent all afternoon together though. Watching a really weird and poorly filmed movie...28 Days Later. No good! I do not recommend it. And then we played some Mario Kart :] Oh! and we made sundaes!! YUM!

Okay...enough prolonging. I have to write my papers :]

Shop Til You Drop :]

That's exactly what we did today. Justin and I met our friends Brittany and Jason over in Hunt Valley for lunch at Noodles and then shopping :] Then Justin and I went to Towson and then to the Cheesecake Factory for dinner! Fried mac n cheese.. MMM!! And what trip to CF is complete without cheesecake! Oreo cheesecake is yummy :] OH! did I mention that I stopped at all my favorite make up stores (ULTA, Sephora, and Bare Escentuals) ?! And I bought something at each store! I will be modeling my new cosmetics at work tomorrow from 6:30 am to 3:30 pm :] OH! And I got a new book. I am so back-logged on books. I am reading Bloodlines and then I have Flight and now I have Death of the Day! I am so excited. I wish I could just sit and read for days on end!

Justin and I went into all of the interior decorating stores today (Plow & Hearth, Pottery Barn, Crate & Barrel) and we picked out lots of stuff to decorate a house that we don't have with things that we definitally can't afford. But we can dream can't we?! Then we came home and watched Zack and Miri Make a Porno. It was a pretty funny movie. Not hilarious. But funny :]

Off to bed. Work early in the morning :]

Twitter

Okay so I started a Twitter since I watched it on Dr. Phil today. Despite what Fred and Justin say, he does not blink ridiculously :] But anyway...focus...I cannot figure out how to link my Twitter to this blog in order to have it have updates listed... anyone have ideas?!

Crazy Snow !!

Today's forecast....YUCKY!

Sure, snow is pretty, but it is a pain-in-the-butt. Justin even got stuck leaving for work today. So he didn't get there til close to 11. His day is now half over :]

The wind at my house is ferocious! Some parts on my yard are barely covered, while other looks to have about 2 feet of drift piled up! It's crazy! Hence why I am so nervous leaving for work today. What if...I am driving down the road and all looks okay and I hit a huge pile of drifted snow and I get stuck! What then!! I guess I'll put the kitty litter and a shovel in my car... fingers crossed.

I am waiting for the snow to stop so I can see how badly my road looks before I see if I am even going into work. I hate to call off, but what can a girl do? Tomorrow morning is going to be ever-so-fun going in at 6:30 :] Another day, another adventure...

So I feel really guilty. I've been lazy today. I have been in the basement all morning snuggled in my blanket drinking coffee and reading my book. It seems like that is all I do now. If I'm not at work, or working on school work and spending time with Justin, I am reading. He told me to find a cheap hobby and I guess I accomplished that. And we buy the books because I like to re-read them from time-to-time. I have a few that look promising when I am done my new ones :]

Speaking of school work, I have a paper due tomorrow night so I had better on that. I don't want the whole day to be a total wash.

New Layout

I got tired of the old one. Let's see how long it is before I get bored of this one.

I can't seem to find any fun layouts :]
