my life!! hmmm....
i'm getting really restless and uncomfortable. i don't like it, but then again, i do. it means that i'm not going to sit back and just settle anymore. something needs to change, and i can no longer ignore it.

9:17am

the T.V. is possessed.
yep, that's what i said, possessed!!



for the past few weeks, every morning at 9:17am, our tv turns on "by itself" with the volume on blaring. why this started happening, i don't know? i'm sure there's a timer on it somewhere. but, i didn't set the timer, nor did my roommate set the timer. and when i've gone to look at the menu on the crazy television, i can't find any sort of alarm or timer. of course, the only time i think to look at it is when i'm in a rush to get to work--because i'm already 17 minutes late--or on a weekend when i'm trying to finally sleep in for once, and lo and behold, it goes off and wakes me up.

and when you run, because again the volume is on blaring, into the living room to turn it off, it's on this creepy staticy station. honestly, it kinda freaks me out. it's very poltergeist

hopefully, sometime soon, one of us will figure out how to turn off that damn timer. until then, i'll always have my friendly reminder that 1) i'm late for work or 2) i guess i really don't need to sleep in on the weekends anyway.

who knows?

rachel!!!

rachel heppel will make an appearance in the boulder area tomorrow evening. i am so excited. actually, i'm beyond excited. i'm overjoyed, ecstatic, elated, happy and delighted all at the same time.

yay for rachel!!!

if you don't know rachel. then you're really missing out. she's incredibly talented, a genius, loves like crazy, wicked cool and incredibly witty. actually none of the above truly do rachel any justice. she is....well, she's.....well, hmmm. let me put it this way i want to break out in song when i think about rachel.
something along the lines of....

Spectacular, spectacular
No words in the vernacular
Can describe this great event
You'll be dumb with wonderment

So exciting, the audience will stomp and cheer!
So delighting, it will run for 50 years!
So exciting, the audience will stomp and cheer!
So delighting, it will run for 50 years!

basically, i'm saying she's pretty much the cream of the crop.
so, if you don't know her. you should do everything in your power to meet the incredibly lovely, Rachel H!

hmmm????

not sure what i think about this...

Caution: the "f" bomb may be dropped in the writing. so for all of you who have innocent eyes, well, you've been warned!!
so just deal with it.

friends, deep belly laughs and SPAM

i've been in a bit of a crappy mood lately. yes, i've masked it well with my lovely wit and my "let me please" you disposition. but for the most part, my mood has not been that "pleasing" on the inside. but tonight...well, tonight was a great evening. i was able to have a dinner date with the one and only Taylor Riley. and if you know her, then you know what a privilege it is to be in the presence of greatness. and if you don't know her, well, then sadly it's your loss.

after i came home, i walked into my quaint, yet seriously needs to be spring cleaned humble abode, to see my friend Jayme sitting at my roommates keyboard plucking away and writing funny little songs while she waited for Kate to get off the computer with one of her many friends from afar. and of course, i had to join in on jayme's fun. sometimes, i daresay, that i get really carried away because jayme normally breaks down and laughs so hard that she can't play and tears are rolling down her face. i can't tell if it's because my my lyrics are nutty, my vocals are horrid or if in fact, it's because i feel the need to do interpretive dance? or maybe, i'm just dazzling her with my creative and impromptu technique??? i don't know. i just don't know.

finally, kate decided to get off the computer and join our lyrical genius. somewhere along the way we started singing about tuna...in a very country, yet jazzy melody. which somewhere along the way led to singing about SPAM. as in the food product---not the countless advertisements you receive in your emails and social networking sites. and if you haven't been to the SPAM website, then you must go. and definitely check out the "what is spam" section. and the SPAM god will let you know all about it. for instance, did you know, in the United States alone, 90 million cans of spam are sold each year. who knew? i won't lie...SPAM kinda freaks me out. but, the website gave us much joy and lots of creative ideas for improvising songs to sing. i laughed so hard that i cried. and i really needed that moment. i needed to laugh so hard that my belly ached. and as usual, jayme and kate, with their witty song stylings and infectious laughter, pulled me out of my crappy mood for that evening. and for once, i fell asleep light hearted and not bogged down by the thoughts that have been plaguing me lately.

basically, what i'm saying is that you can't go wrong with friends, deep belly laughs and SPAM!!

i've made up my mind on a few things...

and it's definitely going to change ALOT!!!

all i have to say is...Look out world, look out.

peace out cubscout!

i have the urge to abandon ship.
i want to take flight and get out of here.

but, i won't.
at least i don't think i will.

yep.

Happy New Year!!!

wow. another year has passed and another year begins.

i have high hopes for this year. i know that's a cliche statment to make. but, i really do have high hopes. and that's a good thing. i have been feeling the brewing of "newness" and "change" within my Spirit the past few months. but, let me say, the birthing pains of this newness and change have been strong lately. almost overwhelmingly so.
makes me wonder what's around the corner?

ooh, the anticipation!
