Newest Addiction

So, some people wake up in the morning and crave coffee, waffles, a cigarette...
Me, I crave gas station cheeseburgers!

WTF, body?! I'm trying to diet here, and you are constantly telling me to drive to BP and buy a cheeseburger (at 10am)!

I always get the craving on the way home from school, and somehow I always give in because my friend Chaelly works there.

UGH! So annoying.

Happy 'We have a new (and 1000x better) President!!

I have been an emotional wreck today. Secretly of course...
While watching our 44th President take the oath of office, tears were pooling in my eyes. They were tears of joy, tears of hope, tears of pride.

I have never been so proud to be an American, as I am today.

For the first time, someone that I voted for has become the president.

I can't wait until the day someone asks me where I was on January 20th, 2009. I wish I could say that I was in Washington D.C. watching history unfold...instead, I was in Omaha, NE in the UNO's auditorium.

Make us proud B!

My story

I have this idea in my head for a story...one based entirely upon reality.
My problem lies in the simple fact, that I cannot recover some of those feelings had during that time of my life.

I keep hoping to run into him...Just so I can feel something again. Hate, lust, pity...anything.

I pulled out my box of 'past' and I feel so disconnected to it all. Which, in the long run, I'm happy about...but right now. I need something to get me started.

I need to hear his voice.
I need music.

Need to, Need to, Neet to!!!

Oh my goodness. I know I say this all the time, but seriously...
I need to go on a diet.
I need to loose weight.
I need to be healthier.
When I take photo's of myself, they're usually facial shots. I purposely avoid full body shots for the simple fact, I don't want to see myself.

I'm going to make a promise to myself. I'm going to take a full body picture every week (or so) just so I can track my progress.

I'm not going to count calories, I'm just not going to eat fast food, or fried food period. I'm going to stop drinking soda and eat more fruits and veggies. I'm also going to start walking more. Well, maybe once it starts warming up. (I could live without the -15 degree temps)

So, here is my Week 1 photo:

Help me!



Okay Internet, I need your help.

I found these AMAZING canisters at a local antique mall and I have a strong feeling that they were a part of a set of 5. How do I know this? Because on the bottom one is marked V and the other is IV.

But here they are...





I just simply adore these and I NEED to find the other two jars. I have searched all morning on Ebay, with no leads. There are NO markings on the bottom, except for the roman numerals and maybe a CALIF stamp.

If you have any suggestions or see anything like thise at all, please shoot me a message or email.

Thanks!!

Oh, p.s. I also got these cool little dishes:
