That's just crazy talk!

I know I haven’t written a blog in a long time but I just haven’t had anything to write about. My life lately has been rather boring. This is what my typical day consists of: waking up at 7 o’clock, getting ready for work, driving to work with Jewells, working until 5 o’clock where I then proceed to go home, eat dinner, work on homework for an hour or two and then watch a couple episodes of the OC and then go to bed. This has basically been my routine for the last week or so. Pretty boring huh? Well I actually have plans for the next couple of weekends so I’m hoping that they won’t be quite so boring. This Saturday I am getting my second tattoo. :) :) I’m getting it at a new place in Menomonie that my boyfriend’s sister, Rachel recommended. She is also the one who drew the tattoo! She is very artistic and talented and I wanted my tattoo to mean something so I asked her to draw it. I didn’t want a tattoo that someone else probably had as well. I will post a picture once it is all said and done! I’m slightly nervous for my appointment. I love the sketch but I haven’t seen it in the colors I want yet so hopefully the tattoo artist can show me before he starts. I’m sure he knows what he is doing though! So, other than my tattoo this weekend I have nothing else planned. I’ll probably end up doing homework, cleaning and watching the OC. …Pretty boring.

Next weekend however should not be quite as boring! Friday night my friends Josh & Lynsie are having a Halloween party and I’m quite excited! It sounds like there will be a good amount of people and some people I’ve never met before so it should be a good time. Then on Saturday it is my birthday! I will be turning the big 24! The number makes me feel old but I still feel like I’m only 21 or 22. I’m hoping to have all of my homework done by Friday evening so I can fully enjoy my birthday. I plan on relaxing and lounging around until about 5 o’clock when my friends come over! We are going to go out to eat at The Orchard in Baldwin and do a little pre-drinking there and at my house before we get ready and go out dancing! I’m very excited!!!!!

The next weekend I’m going to go up North to see my family. I’m hoping to leave on Friday afternoon and get there at a decent hour and spend some time with my little sister. She is almost 22 months old! It has been a few months since I last saw her and I didn’t get to see her for more than an hour. In the last few months she has changed so much! She is now talking (baby talk) walking around, dancing, etc. I can’t wait to see her! I’ll be sure to bring my camera and take lots of pictures! Then on Saturday I will go and see my mom who I haven’t seen in a month or two.

Then the next weekend I am assuming Phil and I will celebrate his birthday. He is turning 29! Wow. Hopefully we can get married before he turns 30. ;) (*cough hint *cough)

That is as far as my plans go so far! I have been thinking lately that I really want to take a vacation this winter. I would want to go sometime around February because that is when I feel like I just can’t take winter anymore and I want a break. And I want to go somewhere warm, like Florida, Texas or California. However, I am stuck between taking one or not because of the money. A vacation will probably cost somewhere around $500-800 each. That is a lot of money I could be saving! However, I also try to remind myself that I only live once and that I’m young and I have no children yet and I should do it while I can. Ugh... decisions, decisions.

Anyways, I think I made up for my lack of posts for the last two weeks!

After plenty of searching I have found my Halloween costume! I went from wanting to be a pirate to a witch to a devil to a ninja and lastly to a moulin dancer. I'm pretty sure that the dress is just blown up and it is really much longer. It comes with everything but the shoes and choker! I'm so excited! I love dressing up for Halloween! And it being my birthday too is a huge plus!

Halloween night #1

Halloween night #2

These next few months are going to fly by! In October, we have my friend Jewell's bridal shower. I'm so excited for her!!! Her mom is planning the shower so it won't be stressful on my end! I just need to help with the invitations and help get everything set up! A week after the bridal shower is my 23rd birthday! Yay! :D My friends and I plan on going out dancing! I can't wait! My birthday is on Halloween so I'm contemplating on whether I want to dress up or not. I'm sure I will. The next day my friend Rachel might be having a Halloween party. I guess I'll be having a fun weekend! Two nights in a row of friends, drinking, and having fun! In November, my friend Jewells and I are going to the Coldplay concert! We have been waiting for this concert for years! The day after the concert is Jewell's bachlorette party! I'm the maid of honor so I'm planning this shindig. I am going to try my darnedest to make this a night she will never forget! I don't have all the details planned yet, just the main plan. We have the hotel, the restaurant and the places that we will shake our butts off at. I can't go into details about anything though because Jewells will read my blog! I guess you will have to wait to see the pictures after the night is over! After the bach party, I have my boyfriends birthday. I'm sure we will go out and celebrate that too. In December, we have Jewell's wedding! We will be going to the caribbean!!! I'm soooo excited! Soon I will have to start thinking of my speech (scary). After we get back from the caribbean we will have the reception. After that, I just have Christmas! Then my life should calm back down to the norm.
