Guess what ? I'm still alive and out here....

I KNOW! Its been a good 3 weeks since I blogged last. Terribly sorry. I promise I have an update (with pictures) coming soon and ohmygosh "How Do You Know" from the movie Enchanted just came on Pandora--oh! How God understands my late nights! Anyways, sorry again, crazy...that's what life has (seemed to be)/been lately.

Til the update:



Now, at nearly 2a, its time to sleep....being a (pretend for now but currently) future teacher/ English major is enjoyable but a workload sometimes.

Ta-ta for now dear ones!

Bono, I could use some Miracle Drug please...

My throat region hurts. Well, it feels obnoxiously scratchy and irritated and it's making me cough. But, don't tell Jason b/c I don't want the 'tussion--that stuff is sick! Plus, I'm not coughing that much. Also, D.C. is trying to eat the zipper on my jacket while he sits on my lap....just thought you should know.

I was going to take a picture of my hair b/c I don't think it feels good either and it looks quite rediculous. Note: I rolled out of bed and didn't touch it this morning. My rainboots were the perfect accesory to the dreariness of my appearance too.

The good news is that I have another picture for you to look at in which I look normal aside from that incredibly warm scarf I'm wearing....



I do enjoy that picture, I must say, it gives me a chuckle.

Today's Highlights:

1) Enjoyable rain playing as a soundtrack to my day.
2) Gettin' to wear my rainboots even though I almost BIT IT twice today due to hydroplanning in said boots.
3) Listening to my new (old) CDs--thank-you Half Price Books!
4) Enjoying only having ONE class today...in the AFTERNOON!
5) Leftover pizza for breakfast and lunch. Could I be anymore like a student? By the way, Jason went to 4 different places trying to find Ranch for said pizza to no avail. Welcome to Huntsville where if more than 12 people have the same hankering, everybody else will be out of luck.
6) Coke...and a smile.
7) Having a good schedule for the semester.
8) Being in a class that requires me to be creative.
9) Writing one of my first poems in a very long time.
10) Jason. Need I even explain ?

And, in case you didn't get the reference I made in the title of this post... its a song by U2 and my throat hurts. Miracle Drug + throat hurting...get it? Aye. Maybe my sense of humor needs a miracle drug.

Hope you're having a jolly day!

Project 365. Day Two-Eighty: Stop Motion...

So, I've seen a string of really cool stop motion music videos lately. Seriously, these are cool. If you don't like stop motion, you should still take a look at these...they're worth it. And, no annoying/creepy clay-mation characters like you'd find in stereotypical stop motion vids!

The first comes from my favorite music group, David Crowder Band. I love me some DCB :) Remember Lite Brites ? I bet you didn't think about doing this when you were 8!



Here's some more info on the video, you won't believe how many Lite Brites and friends it took to make this video!

Emily, over at Today's Letters, introduced me to this jewel. Ok Go + Toast = the best thing since sliced bread (sorry, I couldn't help myself)! Oh, not to mention I'm kind of obessed w/ trees and acorns (the name of the song is "The Last Leaf." Win!).



The last video is by my highschool classmate, Ben Rector...if you've followed the blog then you should be familiar with him.... But, isn't his music good?



So, have you enjoyed your generous portion of talent today?

Good!

Now, I only wish I could eat toast, while playing with a Lite Brite, while listening to Ben Rector :)

Today's Highlights:

1) Getting more info about GETTING MY RING!!!
2) Getting registered!!
3) These sweet vids
4) A highly enjoyable walk w/ my pup and my camera, leaves, acorns, and Kiltie's special birthday leash.
5) Teaching Project DONE
6) Pita Pit w/ da Hubs

And to all, a good night!

Enjoy that run-on sentence while I enjoy my autographed picture. Post/pics to come. It's good to be an Ag :)

Doing the horrific amount of homework I have left to do tomorrow is NOT a highlight. Boo on you, Reality. Tomorrow, it's off to the grind.

Goodnight!

Project 365. Day Two-Forty-Six: Eat 'em up!...

Today's Highlights:

1) Didn't have one of my classes scheduled today, whoop!
2) New music
3) Impromtu date night w/ da Hubs to our 2nd v-ball game which Sam WON. It was alot of fun to go with him and it was an added bonus to see more students/ cheering section there
4) Getting my picture w/ Sammy
5) Discovering upon examination of said pictures that we had a creeper in the picture (look in the background). I applaud this girl b/c 1) she is showing a great deal of enthusiasm 2) Sometimes I have the urge but not always the bravery to bombard the background of people's pictures. Cheers to you, girl in green, cheers. Finding you like Where's Waldo in my picture made me smile :)
6) Jason's enthusiam and encouragement for me to get involved at Sam
7) "Even though I haven't loved the drive, I'm really glad to get to go through this stage in life with you." [My husband said that to me. Sometimes life is just so good as to grace you with sentences like that!]

Project 365. Day Two-Thirty-Five: My legs feel like noodles and I'm tired...

...And, I honestly don't feel like putting much effort into tonight's post. But hey, I just completed my first week of my junior yr of college at a new school w/ a real campus w/ hills w/ a REC center w/ which I treadmilled for like 2 whole hours today with inclines and increased speeds and such. So, I'm tired. Oh, and that rediculous runonsentence was free of charge. That's what they're teaching us in school, run-on sentences.

I kid, I kid.

Anywhoot, as I have just consumed some DELICIOUS Peachy Peach Halves, the possibilities of this weekend leave me with a sweetness in my mouth. Or, maybe that's the peaches. Whatev.

Some Taq ? Island getaway w/ da Hubs? PJ's ? Potato de Couch ?

...Homework ?

Boo. Knew that had to get in there somewhere :(

Maybe I should just get into the text book writing biz b/c then I'd never feel behind on learning the material...I'd already know it, AND I could charge an arm and a couple legs, and maybe a nose for students to by them!

OH, also...

Taylor Swift's new song. I JUST heard it/ saw the video for the first time and I JUST downloaded it. B/c I. Am. A. SAP. No shame. Go ahead, judge me. I'll post the video whenever it gets on YouTube.

What happened to me not feeling like blogging tonight ?

See? School makes me ramble.

Well, I'm sure you've had a blast reading this (Hi, Jas!).

Goodnight!

[P.s. I love my husband. The End]
