Making Progress!

Lew and Jason came by yesterday and roughed in the electricity to the room in the basement. Then Jason and Tim started on the insulation. Tim finished up the walls and started insulating the ceiling last night. The ceiling insulation is mainly for sound control. Tim's going to finish the insulation tomorrow and then hopefully my Dad and Jason will be over next weekend to start sheet rocking! WAHOO* Tim is getting very excited to get the room finished - he can't wait to start jamming down there - and I can't wait either!!

Party At Our House!

We had a party at our house last night. It was completely random - meaning Tim said on the way home from work he wanted some drinking buddies over so he called Jared and Leigh, I got Karen and Jason and Chris came by a little later.

We had a great time! Jason is ridiculously camera shy so I snapped the camera at him until I got one of his face! :) Chris, Jared, and Tim were playing with their cell phones and the blue tooth feature - so fun (sarcasm). A little froggy was stuck to the back window for hours last night - haha! He was cute* Around 10:00 we fired up the BBQ and made some hot dogs. Overall we really didn't do much of anything - just hung out, talked and laughed. Good times!

The DOG fever

AHHHH!! I've got it I tell ya... I've got the DOG fever. I HAVE GOT TO HAVE A DOG!!! I've been searching online (petfinder.com, unclehenrys, Bangor Daily). I don't want to spend a whole lot because we don't have a lot of money. But my gosh, Dog's rarely sell for under $400! Because after I spend the $400 I would need to go out and buy all the dog "stuff" and of course food. I have one dog I'm inquiring about, but I don't want to talk about him because I'll jinx it... okay done talking about him (no, it's not a cocker spaniel). :) Tim isn't really a fan of the idea of getting a dog, but he's willing to give in to this because he knows how important it is to me! I LOVE LOVE LOVE dogs and I miss having one around. I know I don't want to get a puppy because of the time it takes to train him. I just assume get one who is about 3-5 years old - one that is house trained and stuff. Although, by this age they can have already picked up bad habits. There's just no winning!

(running) on the road again...

About the time we went to camp (first week of July) I gave up on running. I had been doing really well and had got up to running 5 miles (all at the same time haha). And lately I've been thinking about getting back into it and finally today I said "this is the day." It really was a nice evening to run - kind of cool but the sun was out.(And on a side note: some of the leaves on the trees have already turned orange! HOLY CRAP DUDES) I hope I can stick with it this time. My dad has a treadmill that I'm suppose to get from him so I have no excuse why I can't run during the winter months. I think if I come up with a schedule I'll be more likely to stick to it. I NEED lists and plans in order to function haha!

RADIOHEAD!

Okay, so we all know I'm not a Radiohead fan and I'll say it again, I'm not a Radiohead fan. BUT, I very much think Thom York (lead singer) is an amazing musician!! He can sing like friggin' mad! They really are a great band!! Despite their long list of depressing songs the energy was so high and the crowd was so crazy, I just couldn't help but have a good time!! I got some really good pictures and a few blurry ones. :) I still don't see myself popping in one of their CD's while cruising down the road in my car.

We stayed in a Red Roof Inn which turned out to be okay. The bed seemed clean so that was good. Although, the lobby seriously smelled of ridiculous B.O. and had dirty furniture, but it was cheaper then the other hotels in the area.

Birthday PARTY!!!

We had a really great time last night!! It was such a great day/night to be outside. We played badminton, hung out on the porch, ate BBQ chicken, burgers and hot dogs, and of course had some ice cream cake! Nothing says fun like lots of FOOD!! Tim had to work this morning at 7:00 - totally sucks!!

Going to a Concert!

Like I said before, a 30th birthday deserves a good present. And being the best girlfriend ever I got him a GOOD present! On Wednesday, August 13th we will be going to see Radiohead. YUP! He is way excited... me, not so much. haha! But I think it'll be really fun. We're going to stay over night after the concert and drive home Thursday. Get this, I've had the tickets since April!! Talk about being a secret keeper! Not usually one of my strong points when the secret is stuff like this!! Although, he kinda had an idea of what his gift was since I had to tell him to get some time off.

Tonight we're just going to have chinese and relax. We were planning to go see The Dark Knight, but it's such a ridiculously long movie (2 1/2 hours) we thought it would be better to go on the weekend. (Tim falls asleep by 8:30 half the time!)
