Currently Watching The Legend of Zorro (Widescreen Special Edition) see related

hmmm...time to update. I'm sitting in the library bored out of my mind so why not...

I had a very good weekend: I worked on Saturday and we were REALLY busy...it actually kind of sucked...I think the reason was because it was raining outside and people love to come in and get eye exams when its raining...I will never understand. After work I went to church then back to my house to watch this really dumb movie. You may have heard of it...it's called The Ledgend of Zorro. Great pick Tony...

Yesterday was very good, even though my beloved Colts were not in the Super Bowl, I still had a good time. We, of course, had a full house. Aja, Grady, and Vince came over. Grady is a huge Steelers fan...he even made his own terrible towel! It was hilarious! He bought a yellow towel at Target and wrote "Go Steelers!" on it...what was really funny was that it was a dish towel that said lunch on it...he's nuts. Tony, Uncle Dave, and Austin came over too. We had lots of fun...fun meaning that everyone made fun of me...the WHOLE time! But as we all know I'm a very good sport about it so I'm not holding any grudges. My Mom cooked a TON of food and everyone ate too much and was very lazy. I think that is why my day today started off so slow.  Well I guess that is about all I have to write...the sun is shining , the snow has melted , and life at the moment is wonderful !

Currently Listening Live at Madison Square Garden New Year's Eve 1995 By Phish Awesome CD! see related

wow...it has been over two months since I last updated. that is pretty sad. I was inspired by Caitlin to update...how do you have time? any ways I'm sitting here in the library doing absolutely nothing, so I though while I had the time I'd let you in on what's going on. let me start with today and then back track.by the way most of the stuff I put on here is for myself so if you don't get it don't worry about it.

I just finished taking a history quiz...I didn't do too bad probably a high B maybe even an A! school is going well. I'm not taking as many hours this semester so I have plenty of time to do homework in between work and other stuff. last semester I tried too do too many thing at one time so now I'm slowing it down a bit.

last night was luau night at ignition. it was fun...Chassie why did you not dress up?! I hope that you are having a better day today...can't wait for the retreat! you can go here for some pictures: http://www.ignitionministries.com/index.cfm/PageID/408/index.html Not very many kids dressed up, but the band did an awesome job...Way to go guys!  before the luau I went to the chiropractor for the first time. my back feels incredible! it was a little sore last night but now it feels great. he had me in this weird position to adjust my back and I started laughing so hard that I almost fell off the table. he laughed at me and then didn't charge me for the visit...how incredible is that?! I have another appointment of Tuesday.

On Saturday I worked all day (well I got to sleep in because I went in at eleven.) and then I went to church, then Tony took me to the Chop House. Their spinach queso is the greatest thing ever! you should try it. then we went back to my house and watched Batman Begins with my dad and mom. Its a pretty good movie but what I don't understand is why they set it up for another one in the end? I'm getting kinda sick of all the sequels that are coming out.

On Friday I had to go to a stupid meeting for work in Knoxville...it was lame. we learned a bunch of stuff that we already knew...but I did learn that Andrea is absolutely hilarious when she is hungry! she hadn't eaten all day and we finally went to Wendy's at about 5:30. I thought she was going to eat her hand off!

Lets skip back some because I can't remember what happened everyday...oh here is something exciting! I bought a Jeep! it is beautiful...a 1997 jeep Cherokee. her name is Rossilin and I absolutely love it! the four wheel drive works really well and I goes very fast!

what else can I put in here...I had a great Christmas. my family came in and we had a blast. my house was so full of people! I got a bunch of clothes, a necklace, and some other cool stuff. one of the best things I got was this awesome Phish cd...Live at Madison Square Garden 1995 - 3 disc set...it incredible!

well...that is all I can think of for now. maybe I'll remember some more stuff later. I hope I can keep up with this thing now that I'm back in school and am around computers all day. I'm off to file my taxes and fill out a financial aid form...sounds like fun right?

Currently Listening White Christmas By Bing Crosby see related

this is for you Matthew....

wow, it has been a long time. let me start off by saying: "Happy Thanksgiving!" today was a great day. I got to sleep in really late after staying up all night watching movies and talking on the phone . I watched a dumb movie called War of the Worlds...don't rent it its a waste of money. well maybe you shouldn't take my word for it...I hate alien movies. then most of my family came over (all of my brothers and sisters except Joe ) and we had thanksgiving dinner together...a meatless thanksgiving for me of course. but it was very good. mine and Grady's plates were the opposites! he had no vegetables and I had no meat it was hilarious...he is the pickiest eater ever! after dinner we all had dessert. I made an incredible pumpkin cheesecake and Aja brought pumpkin pie. we also had some kind of chocolate thing that my uncle made. after dessert the girls kicked the guys butts in Taboo...every time we are together my family plays some sort of game and since Grady didn't feel like losing to me in Trivial Pursuit he decided that he wanted me to kick his butt in Taboo...we (or maybe i should say that I) had a absolute blast. he should learn to not talk so much smack, the men in my life tend to do that a lot. which reminds me of a little bet that my brother lost...Joseph: you owe me dinner!

Anyway's it was a very good day and now that it's over that means that Christmas is right around the corner...have I mentioned how much I LOVE Christmas?!  I cannot wait! a white Christmas...that is all I want (well maybe I want one other thing ). I have almost all of my Christmas shopping done and I cannot wait to see the looks on several peoples faces when I give them their presents! just wait guys...it's gonna be great!

besides holidays everything else is pretty boring...no drama. finals are coming up and work is getting ready to get really busy but other then that life is good. I'll be really busy with school and work in the next couple weeks so don't expect very many posts...but I will update again soon.

are you happy now?

Currently Listening Thus Always to Tyrants By Scott Miller and the Commonwealth Yes...i am still listening to the same scott miller cd...it never gets old see related

I just wanted to put this on here because A) I'm bored, B) I have nothing else to write, and C) I found it in my e-mails today and thought it was hilarious...

Leo

July 22 - August 22

Sudden changes in your romantic situation could surprise you today, dear Leo. If you are currently committed, expect some surprising propositions from your partner. If you are involved but not committed, a marriage proposal could finally come your way. If you are not currently involved, you could meet someone new and exciting under unusual circumstances. Make sure you look your best today - even if you're only running down to the supermarket!

I especially love the part about dressing up to get groceries! More updates soon... oh and Kelly: how about the times on that concert????
