V is for VICTORY, V-I-C-T-O-R-Y!!!











Yes, as has long been predicted, USC and Texas will faceoff in the Rose Bowl.

Jon scheduled his flight around it because we saw this coming looooooong ago. Two rivals facing off. Both on the TV and in the living room. This could get ugly, folks.

Mary, Did You Know?

Yahoo! Calendar has to be the greatest invention EVER.

I just spent an hour inputting everyone's birthdays, editing my preferences and even updating my view to include local (or worldwide) weather!!!

This is fun.

Everything's Not Lost

A brief rundown on me the past few weeks:

I spent two weeks taking care of the zoo that is my parent's house with 4 dogs (plus mine) and two cats. It's amazing how high maintenance those little creatures are. I now have a new appreciation for my mom and her patience to spend all day with them. It was two weeks of living in two places, back and forth, checking mail, dropping things off there, picking things up here... But it was worth it. My parents had a great time.

In the midst of the 2 weeks, Jon made his second trip up to Las Vegas. This time he stayed for one week, but when he left, I was wishing he hadn't stayed so long. I got too used to having him around. Maybe it would be more accurate to say I wished he didn't have to leave. I will see him again at Thanksgiving, and the time can't come soon enough.

While he was here, we visited the Hoover Dam. It was the first time for both of us. I would recommend for anyone visiting the Hoover Dam for the first time to not go at night. Kind of hard to appreciate the whole thing. And beware of the big statue. It gave me the creeps.

Jon and I saw Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds do an acoustic show. I never thought I'd get the opportunity to see them after I missed them about 5 years ago when they played in Montclair, about 20 mins from where I lived. It was a great show and Dave was in usual form of silliness and random accents, topics, and observations. Everytime I see The Thunder From Down Under, I shall now think of Dave. Not rushing back to the Aladdin to see a show, however. Not after the experience of having to stand up ten thousand times while the people next to us came and went aaaaalllll night. More leg room, people. And SIT DOWN and STAY THERE!!

I got rear ended the other day while driving home. It scared me pretty good, but once I was finally able to pull over and assess the damage, I found there was nothing more than a few indentations on Leah's bumper, so I did my good deed for the day and let the kid go. He seemed relieved.

That same night, I experienced one of the scariest events of my life when I got home and found a lost 2 year old girl wandering my complex's parking lot. She became scared at one point and ran out of the gate and halfway into the first lane of a busy (and dark) highway. She was able to be coaxed back and her mom was found shortly thereafter, but it freaked me out pretty good.

Last night I spent 2 1/2 hours listening to music and giving my opinion on hundreds of songs. A unique experience and one that brought back a lot of memories as I listened to various hooks of songs that are old and new. However, I couldn't wait to get back into my car and listen to an entire song play. Someone with ADD would have loved the experience.

I watched She's Having a Baby on Saturday and laughed and cried like always. I love that movie.

One Love Might Make a Difference

The reasons why I love him today:

He lies and tells me he's not sleeping just so he can hear me say good morning.

He's not a very good liar.

He hates drama just as much as I do.

He loves my dog.

He gives amazing massages.

He loves chocolate as much as I do.

He changed my condo's air filter "because it was dirty and needed it", vacuumed my house when it didn't need it, and washed my car because he's nice like that.

He got through meeting most of my friends and overprotective former co-workers like a champ when I was a nervous wreck.

Because he shows me he loves me every single day.

....to Your Pedicured Toes

I got a pedicure. Even better, I got to rock those thin little flip flops they give you if you walk in wearing shoes that may mess up your polish.

Do You Like Dreaming of Things so Impossible?

Sooo much to say and so far behind!! 
 
I never commented on the USC victory over Notre Dame.  Old news now, but not easily forgotten.  Bye bye Notre Dame.  Even the green jerseys couldn't save you from Leinhart and Co...  Maybe next year.       ehhh... prolly not. 
 
I turned 27.  Nothing very exciting to report there. 
 
Heather has had a VERY exciting weekend, and I can't wait to hear all about it.
 
I went to a wedding at the Paris hotel this weekend. Was reminded that I definitely do not want to get married in Las Vegas.  It was lovely--just not me. 
 
Got to spend lots of time with my sister, her husband and their Camden.  There's not many more satisfying things in life than to rock my nephew while he falls asleep playing with my hair.  It's enough to melt my heart and give him anything he wants forEVER. 
 
Wednesday my poolboy Jon comes into town for a week.  There's not too many other things I could wish for right now.  We're looking forward to Jeremy Camp, Dave Matthews and hanging out with my siblings.  And doing nothing at all as much as possible. 
 
Keep staying tuned...

As I recall I think we both kinda liked it

At last, a few words about someone special.

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

This poster kinda sums things up. He says he'll let me be Holly Golightly as long as he can be the pool boy. Don't tell him this, but I'd forfeit the life of being a lawyer's wife for some underwear any day.

We didn't have breakfast at Tiffany's, but we walked by Tiffany's right after dessert. Oh wait, no that was dessert AFTER dessert. Right. Maybe next time we'll go inside.

All of this is making no sense I realize. That's what happens when you meet someone who takes your hand and wants to walk with you for a while. I'm blaming the blond hair for my recent dizziness and ditzy behavior, but I think it might just be that I'm deliriously crazy for someone.

He washed my coffee pot before he left.

He remembered to lock my manual door locks everytime he closed the door.

He walked my dog.

He never complained when I was cold, my feet hurt, I had to pee, or when he had to meet my family.

He didn't eat all of the dark chocolate because he knows it's my favorite, too.

These are things I got to love him for this week, which is only added on top of the other things I already loved about him. Stay tuned. I think this is gonna be good...

One Man Betrayed With a Kiss

There are a few things on my mind right now. I haven't posted in a while, but was inspired by Kevin. Thanks, Kevin.

I have cheese slices in my refrigerator that are really hard. I thought cheese slices had like, a million preservatives in them so they weren't supposed to go bad. Last week I had veggie dogs that had white stuff all over them. I'm not doing so well in keeping up with the expiration dates on my food. I do pay attention to the cottage cheese. That stuff is dangerous one hour past its due date.

The fall tv season has started and against all of my demands not to get sucked in--I'm officially sucked. Television is evil.

I have lately been disturbed by half-naked men in videos. I am forced to change the channel whenever Marques Houston comes on and starts singing "Naked" while actually naked, and I'm pretty sure it's illegal to see Bow Wow in a towel by anyone over the age of 18 who aren't his parents. Sure, he dropped the "Lil" from his name, but I'm pretty sure he's still not all grown up/legal yet, either. The only time this is acceptable is in D'Angelo's "Brown Sugar" video, and that's mostly because the whole time you're hoping the camera is going to pan down just a liiiiittle more. Otherwise, please put your clothes on.

He doesn't want me to talk about him, but I have to say that I've met someone pretty incredible.

Why is it that I choke on nothing at all?

Why is it that I have to trip in my new shoes and cover it up to make it look like I meant to do it?

Why does my dog choose to chew the sequins off of one of my favorite shirts?

Why does my clear nail polish turn a light grayish/lavender color after a few days?

Living in the Wild, Wild West

My life is not boring.  But I think I've been in a haze of some sort the past couple week (wonder why??) and have been neglecting to notice the small things that bring me amusement. 
 
So here's a big thing.  Last weekend I went to Vince Vaughn's Wild West Comedy Tour when they were in town at the Golden Nugget.  A great show, it was.  What was even better was my mom drinking "buckets" of wine, then getting appropriately out of hand.  Needless to say, lots of entertainment was provided all around me.  The comedians were great and had us laughing our heads off.  It was their smallest venue of the tour and they used it to the fullest.
 
The best part of the night was when Vince brought out his good buddy Peter Billingsly.  Most of you will know Peter as Ralphie from A Christmas Story who only wanted an official Red Ryder, carbine action, two-hundred shot range model air rifle!  Well, Ralphie's all grow'd up now and has apparently been Vince's best friend since their days where they both starred in an afterschool special about the dangers of steroid use.  They were gracious enough to re-enact a scene from the special, then play the real thing for us all.   Good times.  A bit of trivia for the class: Peter has been a successful producer for many years, including many of Vince's films. 
 
Peter was definitely the highlight of the night for my dad because A Christmas Story is in his top 3 movies of all time right behind Raising Arizona and Young Einstein.  See? A little something for everyone..

Miss Amanda Jones

I love my sister. I really, really love my sister. It seems I haven't been posting any pictures of her lately, but instead have been cutting her out of photos I post. So here's my way of making up for that. I love my sister.

Happy is a Yuppy Word

Okay, I've been busy. I've been distracted. I've been a lot of things, but one thing I haven't been is updating this blog. Here's my best shot at an update on the recent happenings with me.


My nephew is adorable. Okay, so that's not exactly an update, because he's always been that way. I just wanted to start off with him.

My brother and his wife just celebrated 6 years of wedded bliss. Don't know how she's made it this long. Gives us a reason to be happy on September 11th each year. It was also a good chance to spend some time with them--I don't see them often enough and miss their faces.

My dad turned 65. So weird.



I bought the new Switchfoot album and am listening to it now. I have to show love and keep it real and all that stuff... If you know me, you know why. It's pretty good. Even though I missed them on Conan on Tuesday night. Whoops.



I love the new Coldplay song and still love the Pussycat Dolls' "Don'tcha" and listen to "Helena" by My Chemical Romance and "Sugar, We're Going Down" by Fall Out Boy as often as possible. So stupid that I can't get enough of it. I'm sure I'll be sick of it all soon.


I bought new boots for the season and am wearing them today. My feet are hot.


And lastly, I have discovered that Texas is a fascinating place. This would be the reason I've been too busy to blog. I will try to be better in the future, but I make no promises.


I've missed my blogging buddies: Brian, JAG, and Goldie. Heck, I haven't even had time to read about Things I Hate. Leave a comment and let me know if you're still around.
