I am getting to that age...

OH boy...
So.. what does it say that I am 26 and in the state of Utah (yes this is a qualifying thing because life as a younger single person is TOTALLY different here) and single with no kids? It says... I haven't gotten that far yet. I still can't stop thinking about the fact that a good friend of mine is getting married (and I am totally excited for her!!!) One of my best friends who has been such for about 7 years is not only married but having a baby next Tuesday! And another one of my best friends... totally established kick ass career, everyone respects and adores her and she has set up a great life for herself. Here is Miracle. Right here. and I am ok with it.
Some times anyway.




OK... I am having serious issues with my best friend having her first baby. We are talking SERIOUS issues.
I need to get to making new friends... oy vey!


And in other news.. can we all say HALLELUJAH?!??!?! End of month is almost upon us which means it is almost over. LOVE IT! :) In any sort of sales industry I think we all hate the last day of the month. I am no exception. So.. tomorrow.... 5:30ish... SEND CHOCOLATE ;)

I think I am REALLY liking this guy....

3 books in 4 days!

I happen into the bookstore the other day. BAD idea. I am thinking I am going to walk out with a quick read to distract me for a couple hours and instead I find THIS.
I walk up to the display as the cover intrigues me. (Don't always listen to "don't judge a book by its cover") I walk over to examine to have two girls that are a year or two younger than me walk straight through the front door and hasten to the display. I watch through the corner of my eye as they rush for the 3rd book and ask how they felt about the series. One girl grinned excitedly while the other exclaimed "let me put it this way... I started the first book on my plane from Seattle yesterday morning and here I am buying the 3rd book!"
OK! So I bought the first book to test the waters. I let it set and start it about 5pm the next day. At 10:30 I closed it. I was really kicking myself for not buying two and three at that point. So at lunch I went and bought the next two. They just sucked me in! (no pun intended) I pretty much got nothing done for 3 1/2 days except going to work, sleeping and reading. Thank goodness I don't own dogs.. they might have starved by now. (joking people... just joking)
The fourth book doesn't come out for a year, A WHOLE FREAKIN YEAR!!! UGH!!! Talk about drive me out of my mind.

Guess I am going to have to read the Anita Blake Series by Laurell K Hamilton again to keep me distracted for a couple of weeks and go from there.

Creative mood..

It is school supply time, so what better time to invest in brand spanking new.... COLORED PENCILS!!

Yes.. I am a nerd. I have an obesession with office supplies. New notebooks, pens, colored pencils, post its, glue, etc.... Target had a great deal on colored pencils and I stopped off at the dollar store for coloring books.
This afternoon has been filled with Strawberry Shortcake pictures and Smallville season one and I LOVE it! :)

Now I want a Baby Muppets or Baby Disney coloring book... hehehe!

Bed Sweet Bed!

I have just returned from two weeks of house sitting! I have never missed my own bed soooo much.

Sleep.. sweet unadulterated sleep!!!

Oops I forgot

Well time to get a blog out again. My vacation ended up being 4 exciting days in Idaho. (contain your excitement, I know hehe) but it was better than nothing.

But it has got me thinking about what I could do.. if there were no limits. If I wasn't working in the field I am and had unlimited options... what shall I do?

What would you do if you had to do it all over again? I am interested to hear what everyone thinks.

I made it through another month end, by the skin of my teeth, on the brink of an anxiety attack all day. Thank GOD it is over.. Working in a sales oriented field... I hate the last day of the month. It still stumps me to this day that my boss is so freakin hyper. That is probably cause her workflow isn't interrupted and people aren't questioning her work all day long. Or maybe it is her ODing on Dr Pepper. :) I may have to try that next month...
Yea.. I need to get out of sales, that is for sure.

Now I gotta cut loose.....

For those of you wondering where Lehi, Utah is... let me just say one word.

Footloose.

That is right.. Footloose was shot in these dear little town. Lehi Rollers Mills is where the dance took place and where the main character worked. There is a made up sign for the church in one scene that is by a little underpass. I drive by it every day (though the sign is no longer there..)

For some reason I had the song stuck in my head to I had to go buy the ever classic movie... and it is pretty cool to see. I love watching movies when I can spot all the locations in the movie.

Touched by An Angel used to film ALL the time right next to my ex-boyfriends house. Though, when they did it drove me pretty insane because they weren't quiet about it and generally did it only at night and the wee hours of the morning.

Malidano Miracle (I hope that is how you spell that) was shooting down in Eureka and many of the scenes they shot were shot in a friend's Grandfather's buildings. We would sit upstairs while they were filming downstairs or watch across the street while they shot at the church.

When I was working at my previous job one of my clients was frequently an extra on shows filmed locally and also landed small parts. Her daughters did the same. She came in one time telling me that he daughter co stared with Edward Furlong when he was starting out and she had never kissed anyone. Her first kiss was Edward Fulong on screen.. I think I would be nervously sick about that. I guess she got teased about it for quite sometime. Though, now I am sure all the girls are jealous.

So those are my great star/ famous stories of the day...
Join me again next time when I find something interesting to talk about... ;)
