It’s true… I am a junkie, a Goodwill-eBay Junkie. I just love finding awesome deals! Been a busy, boring week. It’s my day off and just got back from campus and I’m gettin ready to decorate for Christmas! I really don’t know much else… what is everyone looking most forward to during Christmas time?
complying with requests, for fear my house will be burned down :P November 26, 2007
Unpacking seriously sucks. I have most of it done but I have one bag to go and I have a feeling it’s just going to sit there until I go home again! Well I have had the week off for Thanksgiving! My friends, Rachel and Kelly, went to Indianapolis this weekend. Because we really needed to get out of town. We visited the Museum of Art, talked with an old friend of Kel’s, stayed in a Nice hotel, and partied at 8 Seconds Saloon with Matt Poss and The Wild Bunch. We had an Awesome time. It was nice to just get away for a day.
I got to hang out with some old friends and my family all week which was really nice. We painted the kitchen in Jake and Dana’s new house, it was pretty fun actually. Turned out nice.
I have lots to get done around this place and I’m scouring the house for things to sell on eBay. I love selling stuff on eBay not only for the money but the excitement of watching it.
I need some new music suggestions… Country, Rock, Pop anything really I’m bored with my music!
Well that’s about all I got.
Merry Christmas-That’s right I said Christmas! Deal with it!

The meme: 7 random facts about me
The rules:
Link to your tagger and post these rules.
Share 7 facts about yourself: some random, some weird.
1. I live, breathe, and sleep Cardinals Baseball.
2. I love going on little trips around the U.S. Driving though…that’s half the fun of it, and I’m scared of flying.
3. I am absolutely in love with the idea of opening my own inn. Somewhere on the east coast.
4. I started working a real job when I was 14 and have had the same summer job for the past 6 years. The HWG! My sister also worked there before me.
5. I love music and want to be able to play the guitar much better than I can right now.
6. Even though I understand that plans change, I hate it. It’s one of my biggest pet peeves.
7. I like giving presents to people on Christmas more than I like getting them.
I don’t have 7 people to tag on here so I will have to do it on myspace or somethin!
Yay! It’s almost Thanksgiving!

Photography November 13, 2007
So this morning I got up and went to see my cousin and aunt and friends that were visiting on campus and then went to work and class and I got to see some old friends, which was awesome 
I got home this afternoon and I thought, What is Laura doing here? she is usually working and then I remembered She has the day off! I walk inside and she and I agree that we are bored and have to go do something.
So Laura and I went downtown E-ville and hung out. She and I are the artsy one’s of our friends. She has been into photography lately and I am more than happy to go along! We went to the Coffee Shop and I got a carmel steamer, it reminded me of Joe Sipper’s in Effingham and made me want a Sandwich from there. Then we walked down to Mojo’s Music. Probably one of my favorite places in the downtown area. There was a movie called “The Return” filmed in St. L and E-ville area for part of it. Ironically the place that Mojo’s is supposed to be in the film is in Denver. Then we went to Timbuktu… it’s a little shop with a bunch of crazy gifts from all over the world, cool place. And then took a few pictures in this alley type thing by the old theater those turned out really awesome.
Well I gotta go study some before bed.
Peaches,

I’m thinking about writing a book November 10, 2007
It would be entitled… “I’m not your maid, I’m your roommate” it would be a how-to when living with a lazy roommate. I think I could probably write 2 books by now. Maybe the 3rd book could be about courteous things to do in everyday life. Just got home from being with 3 adorable guys 
Luke, Bennett, and Jackson. For those of you how don’t know me those are my nephews, and also if you don’t know me why are you reading my blog? Anyway, it was a good night, lots of laughing, because they are hilarious kids. Did you get my message from my home phone Nic? I got back… my cell doesn’t have any signal for some reason…real excited about that.
Work has been good lately. Kind of crazy and I would like more hours but oh well. Class has been goin ok. My math class is well…going I think it’s the combination of it being the earliest class you can take on campus and me just really hating the material, even with the help of a tutor it hasn’t been great.
Ok I have to go to bed, I seriously have to write that book in the last 5 minutes I have just had 3 more things happen to me that I could add.

Human Recall November 8, 2007
Unbelievable… The latest recall of toys, contains a chemical that is the same as the date rape drug…2 kids are in comas because of this…Take away Aqua Dots from your kids!
How does this happen? Why are we still buying toys from China? America needs to figure out how they are going to produce toys here and not include harmful chemicals, lead, etc. Toy makers are saying that it should boost confidence in their products since they are finding that there are things wrong pretty quickly. Ummmm here’s an idea…test the products before they go out to consumers! test every aspect of them!
Well is like 1:30 am and I can’t sleep but I have to go try again. Sorry that the first blog is kind of a rant but it’s just what’s on my mind right now.
Love, Peace, and Chicken Grease
I swear, pretty soon they are going to start recalling humans.
