Happy Halloween!

Here is a picture of one of my all time favorite costumes! My mom made it for me, and I seriously wore it around the house for years! I named the horse Lightning (after the horse in Wild Hearts Can't be Broken) and I would jump over things and off things... Oh it was fun:)






p.s. I think my brother was the Rocketeer that year...

Mouse Trap


I was walking over to get soy milk from the pantry the other night and I encountered a little surprise... a furry little surprise. There was a mouse sitting on the box of trashbags just looking at me. He was very cute, but I certainly did not want him near my soy milk... so I came up with an ingenious plan. I taped a trashbag the floor and a little bit up the edges of the door and proceeded to try to scare him with a stick! It took several attempts and some team work, but the mouse ran into the trashbag and we captured him! I fell a little bad about throwing a live mouse away, but all in all I'm pretty impressed with myself:) Who knew that I was an inventor:) (or am I just pest control?)

I Love Mondays...

I love Mondays for exactly one reason...

Gossip Girl... more specifically Chuck...

In other news...
* I'm getting more hours at work (yay for the bank account boo for my sleep)
* I think it's way too hot to be almost November.
* I made ginger scones:)
* I got new gray eyeliner that matched my gray nail polish (I realize this is not exactly news, but I thought it was exciting)
* I need to start Christmas shopping!!!

(can you tell my life in pretty unexciting if these are newsworthy)

Nick and Norah




Last friday I got a chance to go see Nick and Norah's Infiite Playlist with Shell and Tessa. It was so much fun. Tessa and I said it made us want to go on an adventure... but I think everyone should go see it! You'll never look at gum the same again:)

p.s. I think I may be in love with Michael Cera

Stress?

I absolutely never thought I would ever hava a job that was stressful! I fully do not know what I expected, but certainly not this. I enjoy the enviornment and the people I work with, but stress??? Those of you who knew me in college are probably cracking up right now because I think this may be the first time I have been stressed. I can honestly say I have never felt like more of a grown up... I'm not sure I like it!

To quote Greys Anatomy....

"We're adults. When did that happen? And how can we make it stop?"

Simple Pleasures...

Here are a couple of things that i am so enjoying right now...





Anticipation...

... tonight is the season finale of Project Runway! I cannot wait to see who wins!
