Let's Celebrate, It's All Right!

I'm not going to go into a sappy what I'm thankful for post today. Maybe Wednesday or the actual Turkey Day... but I will say I am so happy for this week to be a short one!

I'm not getting to go to Kenai like I'd hoped, I think I'm okay with it. All three of us are going over to my g'parents house again this year. Hooray for crowded! blah. I think G'ma's looking at something like 15 people this year! yikes!

Nothing else is really going on. Had a weird dream about one of my classes last night... it was a good dream, but weird.

Gotta finish up a paper and harass Erin a bit on facebook. TTYL!

I've been doing my best to not get sick, but last night I was defeated. I don't have a full blown cold but I just feel incredibly run down. The three day migraine hasn't helped, either. It's managable today, though. Which is good, because I don't want to miss another one of Edgar's classes. haha!

We're currently watching Salvador in class, it is not a very good film, if you ask me. Personally if a film only uses the same three swear words and very little else, it's not worth watching. My paper on the film will probably not be very good. Then again neither was my paper on Outfoxed. And before you think I just defended FoxNews, I didn't. I can't stand the program either, but I hate that the people on the movie said that Fox is the only biased network out there. It's like the kettle calling the pot black. That the press tries to say they don't push one candidate or agenda over another is absurd. In a perfect world journalism would stay neutral but it NEVER HAS. Look at how the Revolution was started, or just about every war we learn about in school. It starts with some big wig deciding to take a side. Why else would celebrities keep pushing in the news about Darfur? Duh! The news influences people to think whatever way the news wants. We're just dumb enough to take them as truth.

That was the gist of my paper, I have a feeling I'm going to get a poor grade for the first time in his class because we don't agree on that. I have come to the conclusion that in order to get a good grade in journalism courses you have to blindly follow and agree with the prof or you won't get far. So it won't surprise me if Edgar is the same as just about every other prof I've had in that department. The only one I didn't have to worry about was Prof. Dillehey, but I haven't taken from him since that one class (I don't even know if he's still in the program!).


I also have no doubt the main topic of class will be Ted Stevens' concession yesterday allowing Begich to become our newly elected senator. Personally I am disappointed in my state's voters for two reasons. 1. we voted in Begich who is a moron (and I don't base that on his politics. the man is a moronic jerk who is only in it for the spotlight) and 2. we almost voted in a convicted felon. There was a perfectly acceptable third choice, IMO, and he was the one I voted for. Bob Bird would stand for Alaska and was not backed by a party or cause. Unlike Begich who allowed the very people he's promising Alaskans he will stand up against. Yeah. Right. Like they're going to pay for you to disagree with them. Fat chance of that.


Oh well. Six years from now we'll be sick of him (save for the church of Begich known as Anchorage) and we'll have someone replace him. Who it will be, who knows, but this is the first time in 40 years we've had two weak senators... Murkowski's just as big a joke IMHO and she's a "Republican". I quit! lol


I just called down to WDW this morning and paid off our balance. You may be thinking that we'd already did that, and we had, but with the new promotion they've got out (buy 4 nights at a resort and 4 days worth of park admission get 3 free) we were holding out hope for getting a Moderate resort - specifically the Coronado Springs. As you might have read in my last journal update. I am so very excited to be going there again. I told Erin she has to take a picture of me giving the resort a big hug. I've missed it. I could stay there every time and not feel like I was missing out on a thing!

Gaylord is home. Not sure why. Either he is checking up on me to see if I actually leave the house, or he keeps peeing his pants because he keeps having to come home to "change". I'm not sure that that is all about, but it annoys me.

It also annoys me that Judy borrowed a few of my CDs and I haven't gotten them back even though I've asked her about them. Then I get woken up at midnight last night because Gaylord is working on a stupid slide show or something and what's playing? Josh GROBAN... and it's MY CD. All you have to do is ASK, but it's really annoying that she leant MY cd to him without even asking me when she knows I've been looking for my CDs. I have use for those disks too! BLAH.


Yes, I'm a selfish little brat, but I'm just asking for a little bit of respect. Though, I haven't been the best of buddies with either of them as of late. I'm getting really tired of Gaylord trying to be the "man of his domain" and telling Judy and I what to do. He hit the roof the other night when Judy snow blowed the drive way. He said he'd do it. Yeah, well, it'd been four days since it snowed and you still hadn't gotten off your fat duff so sit down and shut up. He started yelling at me that I should have done it before Judy did. Um. I was in class when she did it. And YOU kept saying that it was YOUR job. So I stayed out of it.

Apparently he doesn't get enough jollies or something or he'd shut up and leave me alone.

He also decided it was his duty to tell me I was spending my money unwisely and that I was an ungrateful person to use my parents money in the way I was. Meaning - I shouldn't go on this Disney trip (Judy wants to go on one with him and he isn't into the idea). I got REALLY snotty with him and told him that it was MY money and ONLY my money that I was using on this trip. I worked VERY hard this summer to get it (ok so not VERY) and I saved it FOR THIS PURPOSE. I also got permission from my PARENTS (even though I am 23 and therefore an adult that does not NEED it, I still ask for it) and JUDY (whom I still owe for the last trip). I paid off a vet bill, a dentist bill, and a couple of other things before I booked the trip. AND then there's the check that came in September from the State of Alaska that was over 2,000 big ones (plus 1200 energy check). That was MY money, not my parents. I'm not using money from school or anything. I said if anything Judy was the only one who had right to say I needed to give HER the money and not go on the trip.

Then he tried to be her proxy and suggest that's what I needed to do. Considering JUDY was the one who said I should do it if I could afford it at the beginning of the summer, I knew that was crap. And if she DOES truly feel that way she should come out and say it. She's looking forward to 12 days of just her and Gaylord in the house with the dogs. She hasn't been this excited to be rid of me in a while (which kinda hurts), so I somehow doubt she'd be happy if we canceled this trip and I gave her the money.


Then Gaylord plays the wounded dog card about how he doesn't know how to get me to like him and sends Judy to make things right. How about stay out of my buisness and stop trying to be all controlling? I'm a bull headed REITTER. We don't take other people's crap lying down. You are not the one that is 'over me'. I am not your daughter, nor am I your wife (EW). I don't need to be submissive to you. so stuff it.


Isn't it amazing that I can make such a long entry when I have nothing of interest to say. I should just stop talking. ha ha. so I will. Have a nice week everyone (since it's almost over!)

Last night I started breaking down while studying. I've never hyperventalated while reading an Anthro book before. I litterally just got sick, and there was no reason why other than I've been having some incredibly negative thoughts about life, school, everything.

I had a sort of revelation yesterday driving home from church - the only time I feel fullfilled, and joyful, and happy with myself is when I am working with the girls. Yeah, they drive me nuts, but that's the only time that I feel like I'm in the *right place*.

It's really not a surprise since it is the only time I'm around fellow believers and I can truly feel God's spirit moving. But that goes to show that I need to get out of here soon.

I talked with Pastor Bruce yesterday morning letting him know of my current living situation and that I wanted him to be aware even if that changed my 'status' as a teacher. He said that since I did not condone their living together and that I knew, understood, and agreed with God's ruling on the subject that he saw no harm in it, but that he felt that I needed to try and find a way to get out. I told him I knew that I needed out, but that it looked like the only way out meant going back to Kenai since I wouldn't be able to afford an apartment that was in a good part of town, and that took dogs. He said he really didn't want to lose me, but that I had to do what was best for me... and what was with God's plan.

And that's just it. I have no clue what God wants. I like the idea of home and I don't. I like the idea of staying here and I don't. I don't want to leave ABT, but other than my little class of girls and the other sunday school teachers I am not that connected. That's my own choice, I just don't warm up to people easily. I do have a few friends from my sunday school class, but I just see them on Sundays.

But at home, I won't be much better off. I'm closer to the 'adults' at FBCK than the one or two people my age that still attend. Though that might change, if I go back. I know that area better, and I know there are people that want me to come back so I can do photos, but I don't have the equipment I want/need.

Anyway, I decided I needed a break, now it's just figuring out what I'm going to do. Either way I'm getting a job once I get back from Disney. Not a seasonal one (which probably means Wildride is out next summer.) I need to be able to afford my own place at some point. And I need to get a vehicle. Not sure what Judy wants for the truck, but I'm not sure I want the truck anyway.


Please just keep me in prayer. I'll update more later but I have to get going to class.

why I don't know. He's such a likeable nerd. But, apparently, when Paul is on the tape my DVD player will not record it to the DVDs. Which really makes recording my old compilation tapes difficult because most of them are Stars On Ice related and Paul was a key player in that tour! LOL

Thankfully my DVD player loves Kurt, or I'd be in serious hurt (surprisingly I havent come across my Scotty tapes yet).

I've pulled a muscle in my lower back. I litterally cannot find a position that does not hurt. Small movements send pain shooting up. I don't know how I did it, but I just want to cry it hurts so bad! Ibuprofen is the only thing that makes it managable, but once it starts wearing off it HURTS.

Judy and Gaylord went down to Kenai for the day so I had the house to myself. I was a happy girl aside from the back pain. I made cookies before my back really started to be a bother, and then I've been just being lazy trying not to aggrivate my condition lol. I did write some papers and I'm getting ready to order my free trial of netflix so that I can get this stupid Absense of Malice paper finished. Blah!

Oooooo the Godfather 'complete restoration' will be on Blue Ray Tuesday. whoopie! I hate stupid commercials lol.

Alright, back to paper writing. I am hating my classes right now. Blah!

So Gaylord is here. Got in last night. No real opinion can be made as I've spent a whopping couple of hours (maybe) with him. He greeted me with a hug. That was awkward. I'm not a big hug person people people I don't know. I even stiffen when it's people in my family. I just don't have that in me. I love giving hugs but only when both parties are really into it... and, I wasn't. But you do what you gotta do.

Anyway this morning the phone rang a dozen or so times and it's his soon-to-be-ex wife. So Judy took me aside as I was getting ready to leave. For a while if I don't recognize the number I am not allowed to answer the phone because "Nancy is on the war path" and is "completely insane."

Um, yeah, the dude just up and left her for another woman. Sorry, can't really feel bad for the two of you. I told her not to worry that I'd already muted my phone whenever his home phone number popped up so it never woke me up, but still. I can't really get on board with the 'ex wife is psycho' when she has every right to be.

I just don't understand their thinking on this matter, but oh well. I guess I'll just smile and nod and live in denial, as much as possible.


Now that I've gotten that off my chest, back to writing a paper due tomorrow morning (that I haven't even started *writing* yet. Go me!)

Especially when it's a professor who I am paying to teach me.

Prof. Arnett can't teach her way out of a paperbag. She is easily distracted, she basically reads the book, she makes no sense, and if she talks about one more disgusting example I'm going to scream.

First week she used baby rats suckling on their momma's 'tits' for an example.
Last week we had to hear about parents beating and killing their children in horrible ways.
This week? So far people spit into glasses and drink their spit.


What this all has to do with the Fundamentals of Oral Communication I have no idea, other than she is a good example of what NOT to do. BLAH!



In other news, Jeff Buttle retired from competitive figure skating and the news hit Golden Skate today. Wow. I'm still shocked, I'm not a big fan of his (he's got nice flow and blah blah blah but I honestly don't *get* what's so great, and he never lived up to the hype that he was the next Kurt. I don't see much in the way of similarities in their skating aside from the basics). Should be interesting going into Vancouver with him out of the picture... not that he was uber competitive in the long run anyway.




Anywho, I think I may pack up and go home at the next break. This is just stupid.

in this post. I hope.

School went well today considering I am playing catch up in two classes. I'm not too worried, though. I think I'll be able to catch up without any problems. I really like the two profs that I met today both are understanding and have a very relaxed style that makes them easy to approach. Which is GREAT for someone like me.

So my tuesdays and thursdays now look like this:
11:30a - 12:45p = Western Civ.
2:30p - 3:45 = American Sign Language 101
4:00p - 5:15 = Movies and the 1st Amendment - which is a very misleading title. Here I was thinking we'd learn about movies getting away with stuff like Michael Moore's film, but no such luck. But we do get to watch a movie (or rather part of one) each class! w00t! Cary Grant's even got one on the list *boogies*

I only have make up work in my film class... and it's *so hard* I have to watch a movie and write a paper on it. Wow. How will I EVER survive? hee hee. And, apparently, my prof grew up with the Seavey clan in Seward. Go figure. It's a small world after all. *will refrain from a political rant*

My sign language class went well too. I wasn't as lost as I feared. I knew a lot of the signs already (alphabet, counting to ten, and a few vocab words) the hard part is later in the semester when we have to go out and actually use what we've learned to communicate. FREAK-Y!

So I'm going to go now and play Diner Dash now. lol. I've lost my train of thought. Oh well.

Why does it seem that with each tuition INCREASE the quality of UAA is going DOWN? I am so sick with them already and I haven't even finished the first week!

Today was not a good day. It started off well, mostly. I got to sleep in a bit before getting ready for class. But it quickly went downhill. I got caught up in Dan In Real Life which was playing on one of the Starz movie channels this morning, and so I was late getting to my morning class. I did the speed demon thing only to have issues with parking and THEN I get into the class room in about two minutes to when class is dismissed... EARLY. Way early. I was NOT happy. All he did was read the syllybus to the class. I can read on my own, thank you very much. BLAH!

So I went and gassed up the truck, and grabbed something to eat and drink and got to work earlier than expected, which is a better than being late thing. But I didn't realize that when the guys hooked everything up they also... *tweaked* the speakers and so we blasted out the people during the 1pm show. I fixed it for the 4pm show, but then got distracted a few times, so Jake was uber loud and blasted the eardrums of all 30+ people we had there.

Top it off, I didn't vote in the primaries tonight. I am not happy about that. I could have done it this morning at school had I thought about it, but noooooooo I didn't even think about it until Ellie asked about voting absentee. BLAH!

Oh, and I missed class tonight because I COULDN'T FIND THE CLASSROOM!

So I feel *this big* tonight and I just want to SCREAM!

This is subject to change, I'm sure, multiple times before August 25 rolls around lol

But here're the classes I have signed up for as of today.

Anthropology A250 - Rise of Civilization - MW 10am-11:15
(why I have to take both 101 and 250 I don't know)
Mathmatics A107 - College Algebra - MW 11:30am-12:45pm
(Not taking it with the scary old dude this time.)
Communications A111 - Fundementals of Oral Comm. - W 6pm-8:45
(this one is going to be the most stressful, it's a fancy way of saying 'speaking in front of people')
History A101 - Western Civilization - TR 11:30am-12:45pm
(yeah I misunderstood that I had to take one semester of this and one semester of US history. *sigh*)
JPC A313 - Movies and the First Amendment - TR 4pm-5:15
(Really looking forward to this class... and really the only one that is for my major and not a GER)
American Sign Language A101 - Elementary Sign Language - TR 5:30pm-6:45


Oy... I'm gonna be busy... especially since the first week and a half I'll still be working!

only I have no caffene with me today... or rather yesterday... I will have to scrounge up some coinage for tomorrow because I am going to have a serious finals hangover.

I just finished my research paper (which s total crap) and it is 12:15am. Insanity!

Oh well. I survived.. how I'm going to keep up with the full load next semester is beyond me, but the four that I have registered for so far should not deal with too much writing. I hope.

Alrighty, I'm going to BED!

For whatever reason I didn't get the memo that the final was at 1pm! So I showed up at 2 like the syllabus said and was an hour late. Wow was he teed off.

Oh well, he liked my stuff - except for the Biblical one - and I guess I'm still okay grade wise. *whew* I am hoping to take some more from him in the fall, or at least the spring.

Gotta get to work on my Research Paper...

This is the project for "self portrait" I've come to feel it is incredibly simplistic, but I don't care, I am not a photoshop whiz and I didn't get a lot of info on how this is done as he assumed everyone knew how to work photoshop (because out of the entire class I'm the only one who's never used it) so I'm at a disadvantage, but my photography in the earlier assignments should keep me at a B!

anyway I really like how this one turned out considering I didn't know what the heck I was doing!

went with dad and the guys yesterday and it was so much fun. Pastor Robin is a KICK! Though I do feel bad for him, he did NOT KNOW what it's like doing something like this with my dad. He kept saying how it was just wearing him out! ha ha!

My dad gets tunnel vision and then just GOES. Top that off with the fact that he knows just about everyone that has a booth there and you get a lot of starting and stopping and buying. Dad sold half of the fishing gear that the guys bought. The reps at the booths just sat there and let him do it! I was rolling!

Anyway I have a photo assignment due tomorrow and so I took my camera along. I had to do something 'abstract' and the fishing equipment was perfect.

I think this one is my favorite


it's that one or this one


or this one lol I dunno!


oh and the best quote from the day was by Pastor Robin - "3,000 people in here, and your dad know's EVERY ONE OF THEM." ha ha!

Digital Imaging was supposed to meet up and head out to Portage, AK tomorrow morning, but the weather is supposed to be really bad this weekend so it was cancelled.

It's a bummer on one hand because I was looking forward to it.

On the other hand I was a little worried that I would be too busy this weekend and that I would be even more stressed than I already am!

So Easter went well even though I didn't sleep well the night before and my dog woke me up a 5. I got ready for church and made it to the early service so that I could then hop up into the girls sunday school class and teach with Mary for the next two hours.

All in all it was a very nice Easter service, and it was a blessing to sit in the congregation for a change. As much as I enjoy being a teacher, I really do miss hearing the Pastor on Sunday mornings.

I am getting a bit discouraged as a teacher though, and I know it's partially due to my own pride. I'm in charge of crafts, and this year the girls just aren't into them. No matter what type of craft we do they complain about it. How it's either too messy, or too hard, or too boring. They hardly even attempt the crafts, and I've done different levels of difficulty.

If they see the glue come out most of them start screaming that they don't want to get messy, and if I bring out a color sheet they need my HELP to color it! I know darn well they're all more capable than they let on or they'd not be getting to advance to 1st grade in school! UGH!

Some of them just act like spoiled little girls that always get their way and it just rubs me wrong. It's frustrating to feel like that because I honestly love teaching them and I love the girls... but I don't know how much more of this whining I can take.

After church I had to head out to Settler's Bay which is about an hour and a half away from Anchorage by car. Met up with Judy and Juanita & Haille and we all got our hair done (I just got mine trimmed up, and my eyebrows waxed, OW!). Haille got her first hair cut - all she did was trim it up - and she was such a good girl about it! She didn't freak out or anything! :)

Then I headed BACK to Anchorage, picked up Yuka and went over to my grandparents' house. Dinner went pretty well, and Jeff was pretty good. He did get on his traditional 'your dad sucks' trip... but I respectfully put him in his place.

He got on dad's case about my dad having a boat, two four wheelers, and two snow machines... saying that it was a status thing. The boat is actually my grandfather's and it stays at my parents' house because that's where we go fishing is on the peninsula. It makes no sense to store it up here in Anchorage to drive it down for the summer and drive it back up. Dad ultimately will own the boat after my grandparents' are gone, but it's still g'pa's boat.

The fourwheelers are practical as well as fun for my dad. Yes he has a big macho green one and all, but if he wants to keep up with the other guys he has to upgrade. He never gets the biggest and best model, he gets what he needs. Trust me, Jeff, if he wanted to keep up with the Jones' (or in this case the Davis', Davidson's, and Bierdeman's) he'd have a whole lot of crap!

The snow machines that he owns are used machines. One of which was a GIFT to him from the Youth Group. Tell me how that is my dad trying to brag.

Jeff also said that dad is spending my mother's money on himself. Which totally pissed me off because that's so not true. First off they're married so it's not his or her's it's theirs, and secondly it's none of Jeff's concern what they do with that money.

Just because dad likes outdoor toys it does not make Jeff better. JEFF is the one who is slowly but surely taking over my grandparents' home with his stupid little remodeling projects. If THAT is not a status thing I don't know what is.

I basically told Jeff he didn't know what he was talking about. I guess if I don't scream at him that he's an @$$, though, he doesn't get it that I don't want to hear his crap.

I'm fuming again as I write this.

Why can't he get it through his head that my dad is not some evil monster that Jeff needs to save us from? I'm sure that if dad WERE, I wouldn't admire and love him as much as I do.

UGH!

anyway I am skipping Digital imaging, I loved the Lamb at dinner last night, but it didn't love me and so I slept late, and I've studied all morning to the point where my head hurts.. I'm going to take a small break and then get back into it before I leave for class @4 for my test... OY!

...or in my case first assignment that I'm present for lol

We have to create a "trading card"... so I've already decided to use some of my nationals photos (what makes for a better trading card)

Now I'm trying to decide who I want to showcase.

I've decided on senior champions... and I want an action shot otherwise it will seem boring and Red made it very clear that boring gets you no higher than a C. I want to be able to show off my photography as well as my photoshop/illustrator skills.

So that gives me
Evan, Keana & Rockne (I have a GREAT photo of him throwing her lol), Tanith and Ben (hey he's a single guy so Tanith might get me some extra points) or Mirai

but now that I list that out I'm wanting to go through all of my photos again and rethink this.

I can't pick!

HELP!!!!! lol

and Amazon Textbook sales!

I am currently selling off books I never plan to ever bother with again! hee hee! Hopefully someone needs it, otherwise I'm in a world of hurt...

not really but it would be nice to get something for these dumb things. Textbook buy back at UAA is a joke!

Other than that nothing much is going on. Have a lot of the prelim packing done. Clothes are pretty much packed, my jeans are about the only things that I can't pack until closer to the 19th, considering I need to have pants to go to school. I'm not gonna wear skirts in January to go to classes, thank you very much!

Then of course toiletries are the last things I have to deal with.

But I'm uber excited about it and I am kinda wishing the days would go that much faster, but at the same time I'm glad I'm not taking classes yet lol.

I'll have a week under my belt before St. Paul. I'm praying that my profs will be understanding. I will be missing 2 classes for my Tuesday-Thursday classes and 3 classes for my Monday Wednesday courses. So Yeah, Hez and I are going to be the homework girls when not at the areana (well she might have an easier work load than I will who knows).

I didn't take a required media ethics course because it is taught by Prof. Banchero and she gave me an F for the semester once she found out that the reason I was gone from my first week of classes was due to Nationals in 05, I missed more than the allotted ammount (she gives one excused absence and that's it.)

So yeah, we don't get along (she also does not like how I feel the media should be about reporting facts and not finding loopholes to create their own sort of truth) so the less I take from her the better lol.

I retook that course and passed it with a high B from a prof known to not give out anything above a C unless you really work your butt off. I love Prof Dillehey, and I'm hoping I get to work with him again in some class.

Anyway, yeah not a lot of excitement. Going on here.

Tomorrow is Grampy's service. Mom and Judy will be home Tuesday. One week left! WHEW!

I'm keeping occupied by hanging out at the DisneySites Message Board. It's the annual Member Awards, and we're having fun on the virtual red carpet lol. I love that group, most are my age or a bit younger. But it's not just a bunch of teenybopper type threads, we actually have some very good threads analyzing movies both old and new. And it's all about Disney so how can you not love it? LOL

Gotta pop back over there now... chat at you all later!

... I've finalized which classes I'm taking this semester. Got four classes that are pretty much all over the board, but that could be a good thing.

MW -
Digital Imaging with Prof. Bradley - he's the one that likes to swear especially if he knows that it bothers someone. He will literally search until he finds someone who is uncomfy with what he says and then basically will say it over and over and then glance over at the person with a smirk. I played his game as best I could, and did fairly well in his class all things considered. He's the only prof teaching this class.

Small Business Management - has nothing to do with my major, but if I'm going to get serious about my photography and making money at it I figure this is the way to go.

TR -
Intro to Literature - turns out I do need this for my major after all, so I'm taking it. Better late than never. You know the more I look at what classes I still need the more I want to give up lol

College Algebra - This will be the hardest for me to get my head around. I'm a math dummy.


We'll see how this all goes!

So I got a call from Kimmy this morning (she caught me in teh shower, girl always has GREAT timing! LOL) she and I are going to carpool it on Sunday down to Kenai for Courtney's bridal shower (I can not believe she's getting married, it feels so weird!) So that will be fun. The plan stands right now that we'll meet up and head out after church. Not sure how that will work. I might suggest she pick me up at ABT, but then again she goes to Hillside and I don't think that's close to where she will be so I dunno! LOL

The one worry is I will be missing a couple of classes so close to the end of the semester, but honestly I would rather screw my grades over than miss Courtney's bridal shower (and my mother is reading this and throwing a fit ha ha!) because Courtney and I are great friends, and she really needs this and I want to be a part of it. Besides I already told Kim that it was a go! hee hee!!!


Talked to Erin on Sunday. Apparently Brittany (a real witch of a girl who thinks everyone bows to what she wants!) has it in her head that Erin is practically engaged! Which is funny because Erin isn't dating anyone LOL But Brittany thinks it's happening (apparently Erin went to Hawaii for Spring Break, even though Erin thought she packed up and moved to a new appartment, but what does she know ha ha!)

Then Brittany told her that she wanted to come visit her for the summer. Without asking Erin. Gotta love that.

So then yesterday Brittany came up to me and tried to ream me for not wanting to go down to Portland over the summer (um yeah, Erin doesn't want me flying down there because she'll be here in August and she doesn't want to have to entertain me and do school) then she drops this huge bomb about Erin being engaged and all that and I was like "mmm hmmm, sure" then she said that she is going to be flying down to visit Erin in July (last Erin knew she WASN'T flying down) and that ERIN was going to PICK HER UP in SEATTLE because ERIN said that it would be cheaper for her to fly there and Erin would be more than willing to drive and get her. I told Erin this over IM (AS BRITTANY IS SAYING ALL OF THIS) it was hilarious!!!! Erin was pissed though. But it was funny.

I think Brittany's real problem is she wants to break Erin and my friendship up. But that is not happening. Ever.



Speaking of Erin... the little miss I am not a skating fan is going to see Champions On Ice later this month! HOW MEAN IS THAT?????? She doesn't want to share Timmy with me!!!! UGH! I am so jealous! It's not fair!!!!
