Gotta be Sombody...

Been a while, once again.

I have found these past few weeks a lot of things. I think I have really defined myself as an individual. I just feel well educated. Its wierd. Wow. I wonder what brought this on? I think the fact of the holiday season being here has really opened my eyes to a lot of things. It's crazy how life can be at times. I have felt extremely forgotten about, not appreciated, and in some days I feel I am the center of the universe. It's wierd. I don't know. I have been really battling my appearance. I wonder if I look good with make-up on, or better without. I am totally comfortable in my own skin, as far as looks. But there are some days, I feel the whole worlds supply of make-up won't do me any justice. I need to get back to working out hardcore. My ego gets really boosted then. Maybe thats my whole problem. Ahh the joys of being a woman.

So, I spent this Thanksgiving with Scottie's family. I have pretty much met all the family. I felt really retarded, we all said what we are thankful for, and like a little kid I simply said, "My friends and family." No Duh Erica, really? Haha. So, I got the scoop on Melissa's Thanksgiving celebrations over in London. :) It made me smile. Really primative area over there, I tell ya that. Still had the feet on the turkey and all. I feel she was a real pilgrim over there. There are so many things I am thankful for. I think the thing I am most thankful for is my country and my freedoms I have as an individual. Like that ole country song says...

Little bit of a chicken fried,
Cold beer on a Friday night,
Pair of jeans that fit just right... and the radio Uppppppp.

But my favorite part is the thankful for "the stars and stripes"

Now, I am thankful for all those things... especially the jeans that fit just right.... and especially my boots. God help me. Lol. But nothing makes me more prideful, and happy than those Stars and Stripes, and what all this country has been built upon, and what the USA stands for, and all the people that have sacraficed to make this country what it is. Obviously I am thankful for my Friends and Family too. Just a thought though. :)

So, I did some shopping today. Forget Black Friday. I did make a quick dart to Bass Pro, and PetCo yesterday. Can you say redneck? Lol... and you better believe the dog was with me. I love my boy so much. He got a new collar today. Gotta love Old Navy, and their section for animals. :) He looks super stylish now. We are currently 're beautifying' his black collar.

Oh, and by the way, I got some gooooood deals today. Like I said, who needs black Friday? Really. This girl is happy. I got a pair of Blue jeans, and a few gifts. But the blue jeans that fit just right makes me the happiest. I'm easy to please. ":)

My day was all lovely and fantastic until I went to Auto Zone to get a new lightbulb for my brake light. It was blown. I haven't been treated so rudely in quite a while. Obviously I am the only woman in the whole store. This man behind the counter was really ugly to me when I asked him if the bulb I had picked up was the right one for my car. Long story short, he treated me ugly, and acted like I was an idiot. This may be where my conceitedness comes in very handy. I am sitting here thinking Dude, don't mess with me. You many think I am dumb, but for crying outloud I am going to school for Radiology. I mean shit. Give me a break, I think I know what year my car is, what model it is, and ohhhhh here's the real tricky part... if my car is a 2.5L or a 1.8L. Yeah, so I will be calling up there and talking to a manager. I mean I am a woman and all, but that doesn't make me a complete idiot. Yeaht I wanted to make sure my bulb was the right one, but that behavior wasn't necessary at all. The guy behind me was kind of picking up that I was reallllllly distraught. He chased me down when I got to my car and changed my bulb out for me. I mean yeah, I might know some things, but the fact of changing a tail light isn't one of them. I was borderline in tears by the time he got out there. :( God Bless that man.... Seriously. That employee really upset me. And that man helping me out was exactly what I needed to boost my crummy experience. Anyway, that was just upsetting....
Until next time....

I love you guys. Every one of ya.

Been a while....

So, alot has happened since my last blog.

I have very well mistreated my blog. But between the stresses of school, moving back home with mom, and just getting in the swing of things, I haven't had the time of day to sit down and update this blog.

So, yeah. I'm back "Home." I always laugh when people say, 'are you back at home now?' Well, 'home' has been my apartment for the past 2 years. Whether it was the 707, or the 1609. :) You get the drift. Home is mostly referred to as the parentals. Lol. It always makes me chuckle. My home is the apartment... but now its the 'parental home.' Honestly it hasn't been as bad as what I anticipated. I am excited. Maybe I can save money to go to the UK to see Melissa. It's not as horrible as what I made it seem in the beginning. Maybe I was being a 'slight' drama queen.

Also, dropped the AP II class. Much went down with that. I have to say, I am not a happy person to know, that someone that isn't fully 'qualified' for the job is doing that job. Not a good subject. I was struggling SO bad in that class. And I completly understand the material and info. I have heard through the grapevine, and a very good source that her tests are the equivilant of a 1st year medical student. Stuff in the books, and worksheets she gave us weren't on the test. For me to make 60s and 50s and even 40s on a test is not the legit thing. I make A's. So, long story short, after my "Instructor" proposed to me that maybe I study 'too much' that I dropped the class. Not a happy camper. I am probably going to talk to someone about the money I pay, and don't even get a qualified instructor. UGH! That's not right in the least. This lady had NO Background in Human Anatomy and Physiology!!! Anyway Its a done deal.

The election.... ohhhhh the election. Let's say, I was a firm McCain supporter, and was very heartbroken to see Obama get the vote. But I am curious to see how it turns out. I cried when McCain made his speech. Lol. I have come to see, it has been a very* radical change in the American History... but none the less, I have been here to see a new milestone in American history. We shall see....


I will add pics from the good times at 1609, and devote a blog to it. Then the LSU game we went to last week against Tulane. Yeah, we won that one. Curious to see how the game against Saban goes today. Fingers are crossed!

Until next time.....
