HAPPY BIRTHDAY TIFFANY




Happy Birthday Tiffany! I miss you and I hope you are having a good birthday weekend. I wanted to post a couple pics to remind you of the good times we had together as kids. Birthdays were always fun together - I especially remember playing the chocolate game with a big hershey bar and the flour game with the penny.

Spring has Arrived!

This was a really nice weekend. Friday we didn't do much, just stayed in for movie night. Saturday we went out for JC's birthday and stayed out way past my bedtime. It was a good time. Sunday afternoon we had friends over for pizza and frisbee. I also spent a lot of the day sitting on the front porch reading magazines and some of my book for school. Today is about 70 degrees and I am so excited! Except that I have class in a few minutes, so I will be inside until it is dark out :(

Oh well, at least it's finally Spring!!

Another post

So this last weekend was pretty fun. Valerie and I spend Sunday shopping and had some Pizza Hut pizza which was SO awesome. In fact, the leftovers I had for lunch yesterday were the highlight of my day!

School is really back in session, and it is exhausting. By the time I get home around 9:30 or so, I am so tired, but usually hungry, too. So I have to stay up to eat, but I am almost too tired to eat. Anyway, my group was assigned last night for 2 projects I have to do in one class, and it doesn't look too bad. They are both pretty nice and smart. Tonight I think we pick groups for my other class. I have already had to do a few hundred pages of reading this quarter, so I am a bit behind. Perhaps after work before class I can try to catch up. I really just want to take a nap.

So nothing interesting is happening with me, really. Just school &work which is taking up a lot of time, and sleeping. Nothing too exciing.

Spring quarter has started...

But it's not very warm out. For one class, I have 2 group projects, a final, and two books to read. For my other class, I have a group project, a book and packet to read, and a midterm and a final, oh and some online test or something. I have finally made a few friends that I sit with on a fairly regular basis, so that is nice too.

I am hoping tonights class will just be the overview of the syllabus, but I think we are starting the lecture as well. Hopefully we will get out early.

Other than that, I am still waiting for my new job to post so I can apply for it (it has taken months). Tonight is the Biggest Loser - watch it!

My stolen wallet...

So I hate people! Monday afternoon I went to the bank around 2, so I know I had my wallet when I got back (because I put something away). I went home after work without realizing that someone had come into my office when I ran across the hall and stolen my wallet out of my bag. I was only gone for a minute, and you can't even see my purse from the door. So someone had to come all the way in my office (my door was cracked about an inch, which I do all the time when I am in there! I could have been behind the door for all they knew...) and dig through my bag bc my wallet was in an inside pocket under my clothes and stuff.

So I got a call from my credit card company on monday night to verify some charges. Within 2 hours, they charged about $1,000 at 4 different stores! So I had to cancel everything. It really sucks. We haven't had any money or access to money really for the last few days. Supposedly we will get new cards someday soon, and I set up new bank accounts.

Not to mention that I had about $30 in there, and it was my Vera Bradley wallet (about $25). So dissapointing....

The police are investigating, but I would be surprised to see anything come of it. I would like to know who this person was, though, and if I had seen them in the building. Or worse, if it's someone that works here. Then when I tried to call my credit card company to get more information, it takes them 30 minutes to pull up my acct then they are asking me 20 questions about unrelated events in my life (for security purposes???) THEN tell me that I need to fax 3 documents in before they can even tell me what store location they used it at. FORGET THAT. I wanna talk to someone in America that can actually HELP ME.

Spring Break starts off nice

I am finally on Spring Break! I am so excited to have free time after work. It is exhausting to have class late a couple times a week.

Friday night we had some friends over and stayed up pretty late just laughing and having a good time. We watched a couple episodes of The Office (one of my fav! shows)
Saturday Ryan and I just hung out all day. We ended up going to get a new video game and we got there RIGHT before they closed. That was pretty lucky. It is a mario fighting game (fun fights, not with blood or anything), but I thought it was hard. Ryan always wins.
Sunday I went to a bridal shower for a new friend, and then I got free tickets to the Funny Bone (comedy club). I took Valerie for a girls night out. It was fun, but it ended up being a late night.
Tonight Kim is coming over to hang out probably, but I don't have a lot more plans this week. I think this weekend we have plans everyday, but I am looking forward to having a night or two free this week to just watch a movie or something. Oh, and to start watching American Idol.

PS - anyone watch Oprah's Big Give? It's so good! I forgot to watch it last night, though...

our snowman


I need to get more of the snow pics off my camera, but here is a fun one! We built this snowman in our neighbors yard. we were actually outside when they pulled up to see it. It was pretty funny.

later that night we were at home watching TV, and the doorbell rang. They had actually picked the snowman up and moved it onto our porch. Then rang and ran. It was pretty funny.

Builders are now building across the street from our hosue. I hope we get more good neighbors.
