Several Days of Holidaze.

I had the greatest weekend with Micah and his family at Possum Kingdom Lake in Dallas!

...however, I slacked on some of my holidays....but only temporarily!

Some of the last few holidays have been...

NATIONAL MUSTARD DAY! I love, love, love, love Chick-Fil-A with MUSTARD and extra pickles!


"Welcome, to Chick-Fil-A, it'll be our pleasure to serve you at the window!" And put the perfect amount of SIX EXTRA pickles on your SPICY CHICKEN SANDWICH! 

Assistance Dog Day...

Which, Murfee does NOTHING that is of any assistance, but he's still cute! 




Last but not least...


HAPPINESS HAPPENS DAY!

I'm putting up this picture of Micah and his niece Raegan, because even though I was there to visit he was SO EXCITED to see her, and I have to admit she is a sweetie.



Plus, I was so happy to see malo mio. 



Goodnight - I'll keep up better from now on. :)

In honor of...

NATIONAL BREAST FEEDING WEEK...

Two really great links for you guys.

1) If you've never heard of the show "What Would You Do?" on ABC, go watch it-the link here is for a show about what would you do if you saw a mom breast feeding in coffee shop.


2) MICHELLE DUGGAR. She's got to know a bit about this,what with 19 little mouths to feed....

...however, her most recent baby, Josie, is (drum roll please) lactose intolerant! Whew, so young too. Here they are, thehealthy, preemie, lactose baby and her mother of 19!


Did You Know??

After you have a little one, breast feeding can help you lose weight faster and it ALSO make the kid smarter and skinnier in the long run.

...and now go thank your Mom for helping you be such a beautiful, smart person!

Off to celebrate National Night Out...Whoo.

Hollie Daze.

So, tomorrow I'm going to celebrate a daily holiday-or a weekly one if I like that better, I may even do monthly. Basically, I'm going to celebrate what I want to. And if I only do it tomorrow, whatever, because I obviously didn't follow through on the dream thing.

Once I started writing them down, I stopped remembering them, and once I stopped-they got scary. So, forget the dreams. On to holidays...

We'll say I started August 1, 2010. This week is National Simplify Your Life Week, and I kicked it off by cleaning and organizing my jewelry, so I can find it in my tiny room in my parent's house.



Also, August 1 is Girlfriend's Day and I schedule a movie date with my friend
, Kristian Soto, so there. Last but not least-today is Sister's Day and I've got TWO of those!

Major points.


Tomorrow, does not celebrate any national holiday, but it starts the week for National Exhibitor Appreciation Week, National Intimate Apparel Week and National Psychic Week-what a fun week! Haha.

Looking forward to trying to celebrate those things tomorrow.

Buenos Noches.

In the Middle of the Night...

"...I go walking in my sleep..." - The Lion King

No, I don't go walking in my sleep in the middle of the night, but I might as well! Between the hours of 11 and 7, I live a completely real and separate life that's full of adventure and ridiculousness.

I like to write and my life is not so exciting that you needed it updated by blog--but my dreams ARE. So, you're in luck...listen to last night's...

I've had this dream probably 109 times. My family and I, plus Micah and my cousin Jess (the people always chage) are in a cabin room in the top of a valley looking down on a stadium in the woods. Mass seating in the grass, up the hills with a few scattered people sitting around looking down on a mass of people apparently trying to decide something. The people in the cabin are in fear of being found, while also plotting how to take down this cult-like group of people. How to blend in and take them down from the inside. Gabbie is being loud, always. Hahaha. Juli has a nameless friend with her...surprise. Hahaha.

Things happen...I don't really remember the specifics but it's extremely scary and challenging.

And Jess-he's never been in the dream before, but he's traveling across Europe right now and stayed in a treehouse somewhere in Asia and well, that HAD to be in my dream. What's cooler than that?

...then I popped awake to Murfee pawing a my shoulder.

Guys, I dream EVERY night...look forward to tomorrow's dream. I don't even know if I rest at night-simply, live my other life. Like an Avatar!

I live alone.

Today, I ate dinner alone.

I went to the grocery store. Bought a potato. Sour Cream, Butter, Salt, Pepper, Cheese etc.
Came home, put it into the fridge. 
Took it out of the fridge and prepared the potatoes, put them in the oven. 
Took them out of the oven, cut them, put them on a plate and ate them. 
Next, I scraped the leftover into the trash. 
Then, I washed my dishes and put them away. 

Now, I'm taking out the trash with my leftover potato in it. 

I live alone.

Funny thing about coming back from Spain is that...I can speak Spanish. Who freaking knew? 

Significant things about that in The States:
- I actually wish my Spanish professor DIDN'T translate every other phrase for our class, while the majority of my class looks forward to those moments (I know, I was once there...)
- Sometimes I can't figure out how to say something in English!! 
- I feel like I know a secret whenever I can randomly bust out in Spanish with friends.
- I can eavesdrop in Spanish...
- I feel qualified to someday have a Spanish job! (Hey! I did it in Spain) - which is really good, considering I probably will. Cool. 

Okay, enough about my obsession with the Spanish language...

Readjusting in strange too, though. Especially with this whole new group of friends to see/hang out with all the time. But I love them and I saw them last night and it was AWESOME. 

In other news:
- I want a pet, not gonna happen.
- Turns out cooking is actually cool. 
- New books to read? 
- I miss Allie and Caleb and Josiah and Mica and Mallory and Mason and McKenna. 

Bunch a little childrens whom have stolen my heart and I MISS THEM!!

- Juli is at Tech with me this semester and it rocks. She's a cool sister and I love her. 

That's all. Peace out hombres.
