finally!! I'm blogging!

I need to repaint my nails...I think this to myself as I begin blogging for the first time in ages...I got this great new color called jumpin jade, so I'm pretty excited about that.

In other news...
~I survived my 25th birthday. It was a fun time. Now that it's over I have finally started to admit that I'm 25. Tiff and I had gone to breakfast, the morning after I got my liscence renewed. I paid with my debit card, and the girl asked to see my id. Without thinking, I bluted out, "My brand-spanking new one!" So, the other girl giggled and asked if I just turned 21. I should have just said yes, but instead I was like, "umm. no. I turn 25 tomorrow." anyway...it was a good birthday...but I don't plan on getting any older. This is it :)

~work sucks as always! We are going through a new accredation process which is basically a giant bundle of steaming bull! My co-teachers insist on staying after work like every single day, and I'm like, really? This isn't goign to last; plus, I'm not bfff's with the assistant director and I have nothing to prove, so ya know...

~I had to put my truck in the shop. Apparently, I needed new rotors. The good news is it was covered under warranty! While we were waiting for my truck to get done, we wondered over the bookstore so Brian could find a clearenced copy of Les Miserables. (I don't why he insists on waisting his time when he could be reading Twilight!) So, I meandered over to the graphic novels section, looking for Ghostrider, when this kid pops up, and starts mackin on me bigtime! It was completely endearing. He was like, "So...do you know anything about the Watchmen?" I was like, "As a matter of fact I do." So we had this adorable conversation for about 35 minutes about the Watchmen and V for Vendetta and Wolverine...Brian stood there for like half a second before bowing out gracefully. I had to cut it short before the kid tried to get a number or something. As I was walking away he said, "I really enjoyed our conversation!" awww :)

~I went to Kentucky for my sister's adoption benefit concert, and we discovered that although church people pretty much suck, God is still awesome as ever!! Between the 20 people that were there and the folks who checked out the virtual concert on her blog, they were able to raise over $2400, which allows them to proceed in the adoption process. Yay!! I am this much closer to having a new niece or nephew to spoil! Also, we have a new favorite musicain, Jimmy Dooley, whom Micah affectionately calls "jimmy doody." We fixed his hair to match Jimmy's, and I also fixed my dad's hair for sunday morning when Jimmy Dooley performed for their church. It was a fun time.

~We can add flying to my list of hobbies and interests. That's right, FLYING!!! This past thursday, Brian said he had a surprise for me, which I guessed to be going for an airplane ride. But to my surprise, this little airport also gives flying lessons, so we went up twice about 25 minutes each and Brian got to fly the first time, and I got to fly the second time!!! It was so awesome!!! The sad thing is, flying is an expensive hobby, so I need to put in about $5000 before I can get my private pilot's liscence...That won't be happening for a while :) We flew to Chippewa Lake, and we even went over my condo! I wasn't sure it was my condo until I saw the black pearl parked in front my garage and started screaming, "There's my truck!!!!" good times!

That's about all I have time for...
