I had such a good weekend. I didn't expect it to be for some reason but it was exactly what I needed.

Our game last night was a load of fun. Both teams had man down so everyone had to play without subbing out. We actually tied and I didn't play like total shit. I guess the hulk rage came over me and I was in it. I am dead tired now though. And bruised.









I had a second date the other night that was actually a lot of fun in an awkward way. We spent part of the time chasing my idiot dog who was chasing a squirrel, part watching River Monsters of the Congo and really just overall enjoying myself. I think we are going to go out again this week.

54 days until my tropical vacation. Not that I'm counting. We are planning which excursions to do while there. I want to go snorkeling and maybe hiking. I definitely want to check out the glass blowing center. I'm excited to just get out and do something new.

Today we are heading to the deep creek area for a BBQ with work people. It's always an interesting time, so I'm looking forward to it.

I guess I don't have much interesting to report. Stayin busy has been a good thing. Still car shopping, which is stressful and annoying. But I know what I want and just haven't found it yet. Oh well. It'll happen.

Hope all is well with everyone. Here are some pics from lately.

So I up and went to Pittsburgh last night to see Counting Crows with Jenny and had a blast. It's crazy how just being impulsive sometimes really brings about a good time. Even driving around damn pgh didn't make me totally crazy.

I haven't written much lately. I will. Hell, I have another date tomorrow (a second date even!) so I'm sure I'll have something to tell you.

Google "the burning house" project and think about what you'd take if your house was on fire. These things were no question to me. Everything else I looked at around the room I saw and knew I could replace them. But these..not exactly.

I was exhausted after soccer tonight and immediately fell asleep. And then something just woke me up and now I can't get back to sleep.

Soccer was fun tonight. We didn't know up until we started playin whether or not we would get to bc of the storm. It rained through the first half, which felt nice considering we were playing a man down. I got a header this game. Completely by accident but hey. No one else knew that. Haha.

Last night I got talked into going out bc a coworker wanted me to meet his neighbor. Somehow we ended up going to the elks lodge. Easily the youngest people by a good 20 years. But I ended up having a really good time and I guess the neighbor fellow is interested, so we may go out this weekend. The guy I went to dinner with a few nights ago asked if I'd like to go out again next week when his schedule clears up and I said sure. I've got nothing to lose here. Both have dogs and both just light up when they talk abt said dogs, like how I do calypso. It's nice to have that common ground to talk about.

I also started randomly talking to a guy that lives really far away and I prob won't get to meet for the foreseeable future, but he's actually really awesome and we share way too many interests and quirks. We were supposed to skype this evening but i fell asleep. Woops. He's fun to talk to but that's probably going to be the extent of it as I don't exactly have the free time to go visit Huntington and vice versa.

I don't know why all of a sudden people are talking to me after so long. A coworker/friend/teammate told me as he drove me to the brew pub after our game tonight (our official team post-game location) that in the last few weeks he can tell a change in me, that I have more confidence and that people are noticing. He said I could kick his ass if I wanted to but people are appreciating how much more I'm wearing skirts and dresses to work. Which makes me laugh but also feel really good. I'm finally down to a size that I feel good at and clothes fit me correctly and I feel like I have more confidence. And if you know me, confidence isn't my strong point.

With all that said i would be lying if I didn't say I feel like there is still this big hole in my heart region. But I know I'm making the right choices to move on and see what else is out there. And its terrifying but that just means its all going to be worth it in the end.

Baby puppy is in trouble by she tried to chase a cat this evening. However, she ran smack into a fence and it dazed her long enough for me to catch her. It's kind of funny but I still was freaking out. I was pooped from running all evening as it was. She hasn't liked these storms at all.

At any rate. I hope everyone is well out there in blog land. I'm going to try and get some sleep. Much love!

So I have had a really great last couple of days. Laura came up and stayed Sunday night and brought the Weez. I took Monday off to hang out with her which consisted of shopping and magic mike. Haha. All in all a good day.

I had a date tonight and as first dates tend to go it was kinda awkward. But also nice. Different. I just don't remember how to do this. I want to just curl up on a couch and watch some prison show marathon. That kind of date makes sense to me. But. Overall it was nice and if asked again I will probably accept. I have no reason not to really.

Anyway, bc pictures are more fun, here are some pics from the last few days.

Someone in Frankfort KY found my blog by googling "personalized snuggie" haha that's kind of sad, right?

I haven't really felt like writing lately but then I haven't really had anything to write about. Alisha and I met up with a high school friend at muriales last night for dinner and had a really great time catching up. It's crazy how things change but stay the same.

I'm heading home this weekend for Alisha's bridal shower. I still haven't gotten them a gift... Woops.

I got my hair cut and colored today. They charge way too much but they always make you feel so pampered and pretty. She curled my hair and I kinda like it.

A few pics from Gassaway Days yesterday. I'm thankful that I grew up in a small town. But sometimes it makes me sad/overwhelmed to come home.
