I'm ready to go!

We're leaving tomorrow around noon to go to Boston for the night!! Lyrics Born plays at about 8:00 so we'll check into the hotel around 4:00, hang out, eat dinner and head over to the Paradise Club! Our hotel room has a balcony overlooking Boston - LOVE IT! I haven't been to Boston for a few years so I'm excited! And I've never seen a concert in a club...I've only seen them at civic centers and once outdoors. Think there's a difference? =)
Tonight I'll have to figure out the "perfect" outfit. It might even require me buying something new. Hmmm.. Something new... sounds good! =o)

My only worry... we get lost!! YIKES!! =) We have mapquest directions for every possible direction. Bangor to Hotel, Hotel to club, club to Hotel and Hotel to Bangor. =o)

I think they make this stuff up!

I went to the dentist today to get a "small" filling. I couldn't even see this so called cavity, but the X-rays show a cavity... or do they?
Dr says: see this itsy bitsy almost invisible white spec?
Me says: uhh...I guess so.
Dr. says: that is a cavity.
Me says: it is?
So... here I am. Bottom lip feels about an inch thick and I think I might be drooling. And I have to go back again in February for another - joy joy.

Halloween Party

We had a great time at Paul and Crystal's Halloween party last night! Tim a.k.a Space Ghost was an enormous hit! All he had to do was start dancing like a dork and everyone would crack up laughing - including myself!

MMMM...

I did a little baking this evening. I made Tim some Crumb Cake. He usually brings it to work to share because we would never eat it all. He always comes home with an empty pan so I don't think the guys at Freightliner mind!

I made myself some Blueberry Crisp. Which I will also probably bring some to work because I will not eat nearly half of it. Tim doesn't really like it, I guess he isn't a big blueberry fan. I've already ate 2 pieces. It's so delicious after it cools off a little but the blueberries are still warm. MMMMM!

(me saying) Spank-ity Spank Spank, Spank-ity Spank Spank (while hoping around the living room)

Me love those Patriots!! I was definitely nervous about tonight's game. And for awhile it looked like the Cowgirls really had a chance to win! But, geez... was it 12 penalties? I suppose they had to do SOMETHING! And that yummy Welker - I could snack on him for awhile! =o) What do you think Rick? Pretty delicious looking!!! I don't think the Pats will go undefeated, as much as I would like that to happen it just doesn't seem realistic. For now, 6-0 settles very well with me!!
Next year I WILL have tickets to at least 1 game! And I WILL be 1 of those crazy people - painted face, crazy wig, no shirt... haha, just kidding! I'd have a shirt on!

What I watch on TV

So, Nicole posted this thing about her favorite TV shows and asked what everyone else watchs. Please keep in mind we do not have cable!! Here it goes:

Shows I watch all the time:
Ghostwhisperer
Criminal Minds
CSI
Jericho
How I Met Your Mother
Two and a Half Men
Desperate Housewives
Kid Nation - okay, so it's a little retarded at times, but I'm hooked!!

Stuff we get on Netflix:
Weeds
Deadliest Catch


Shows I watch some of the time:
Greys Anatomy
Without a Trace
My Name is Earl
House
Friends

I think that's about it. I don't think there is really much else to choose from on regular TV. When I list out the shows I watch I didn't realize I watched that many. I was one of those "I don't watch much TV" people. Guess I'm wrong!!

You have got to be kidding me!!!

I got a letter today saying how this company is only going to interview the 3 applicants that have "experience" in the field. I DIDN'T EVEN GET AN INTERVIEW AND I GOT AN "unfortunately" YOU'RE-NOT-THE-GIRL-FOR-US LETTER!! What the heck am I going to do? I'm really not having much luck finding any jobs. There are like a million nursing jobs advertised, but I find a paralegal job advertised like once every 30 days! I have a different job I'm applying for - not a paralegal job. I guess I have to let go of the paralegal idea and just find myself a job!! =(

Kickin' the heat on

UGH! I've never hated winter so much as I hate it in this apartment. This apartment is the "DRAFTY-EST" place I have ever lived (and I used to live in a trailer and those are pretty drafty!) The heat blows and it gets like 100 degrees in here and then within 30 minutes you're like "where the hell did the heat go?" It's great in the summer time because it stays pretty cool. The heat is also that INSANELY dry heat ( I suppose all heat is "dry", but you get it) that gives me bloody noses in mid-winter! bluck! The house is just old and the owners haven't taken the time to properly seal it up. The crazy part of that is they pay for the heat - great for me, but ridiculous for them!! I imagine if my apartment is drafty so are the other 2!! Again, I don't pay for it so whatever! But they could save themselves alot of money if they even just sealed the windows! Sitting on our couch (which most of you know is underneath a large window) we feel such a draft - and the windows are fairly new so there is no reason they couldn't have made them a little more energy efficient! Okay, enough about the crappy heat. I have to say - I'm already excited for Christmas! Yeah, I just love it! I've even bought some small things here and there for karen and my mom. I'm not really sure what to get Tim this year. Definitly less extravagant than last year. He said he wants some new computer speakers so I might just do that. I just took Tim back to work so I'm relaxing by myself, doing a little job searching online.

home early

I came home early today after a quick stop at the Career Center. I don't know if any of you have ever been to the CC, but it's kinda interesting. I have a whole new website to look for jobs now. It's all free which is nice! I get weekly e-mails about any jobs that relate to what I'm interested in doing. No reason for coming home other than I HATE MY JOB so I left! Yeah, that's right... I JUST LEFT! Honestly, I won't even be missed and when I go in on Tuesday it'll be like I never left at 1:30 on Friday. By now you've noticed my scrap pages. They're no CJ's (Colleen Jordan's), but I like them. =o) I like the pic's of Karen and I. I've just about finished my scrapbook from camp this year. I've been reading a really great book - Mr. Murder by Dean Koontz. I've never read anything by Koontz, but like I said I'm really enjoying this book!

It's a 3 day weekend and I need it. My head is about to fall off from stress! I need to find a new job and I need to find it NOW!!!

Wild Acres Campground

After 3 hours of fighting with my computer - here are my pic's from camp this weekend. Karen cooking everyone dinner! YUMMY!

Karen's BIG DADDY!! =o) He hates his pic taken - it's unfortunate for him I was there!

We had a great time at camp. Took a trip to the Beach - I can't believe people were swimming it was so COLD!!! Karen and I didn't plan on wearing the same shirt either!
