Evesdropping

My roomate and her boyfriend are currently discussing the role of gender and spirituality. I'm half way between chuckling at them to myself and wanting to join in on the conversation. I have only one more thing on the list of things to do for the day but instead of doing it (it involves writing an email to my advisor) I'm blogging. I hope you all don't mine my detailing the mundane trivia of my life as well as the major events. Because that's what I do when I'm bored. Let's see, major events. I don't know if I told you but the doctors were a little bit worried about my unborn niece or nephew (thought I was pregnant for a minute there didn't you?). But they ran more tests and he/she is perfectly healthy; just small and doens't move around a lot. Yesterday I went to Temecula to see two of my friends from highschool, both of whom are also pregnant. While I was shopping with them at Gymboree I got a call from another high school friend who needed to tell me she was moving to Norway with a guy she met at her Yoga class. She announced that "the best thing about it is he's really hot." Am I alone in thinking that moving to a country that only recieves sunlight for half of the year for a man whose best asset is his exterior anatomy is not the wisest of decisions? Ho hum, alas I can not expect the rest of the world to attain the hights of sagacity that graduate school inevitably bestows. (btw that last was sarcasm).

All grown up..now

So it's official...23 hit me.....I'm in Monterey and today was sooo beautiful. I came down today and spent the day at the spa, which was lovely...until I was getting up from my massage and noticed one of those black bubbles in the ceiling..you know like the ones in the store that are cameras...hmmm, I thought about giving them a little show n' tell, but decided against it...anyway, it wasn't "the press" but it was nice...Also, if anyone is ever in the area, I would recommend the Jabbewock Inn, it's a really quaint bed and breakfast based off of Alice and Wonderland....Anyone notice that years that aren't landmark years (i.e. 18, 21, 25, etc.) just seem like another year gone by when you are wondering what exactly you're celebrating?.......After watching many episodes of sex in the city, if I'm planning to live in my role model Samantha's shoes I realized something is missing and it ain't "the city".....I'm thinking being grown is supposed to be funner, so I'm banking on lucky number 23............Talk to ya'll soon.

I'll try this out

Things have been calm around here. It's really nice. I've settled in finally. I've been looking for a job, working on the dang paper, and wife-like things around the home like laundry, ironing, cooking, and cleaning. Thang bought me the 1st season of Supernatural, so you know I've been busy watching that. Whoa, it's kind of uncomfortable writing "I" so much, like anyone cares about my boringness. :P Um, Thang's sister and her bf are visiting here until Saturday. We are all going to a magic show thing tonight, that should be fun. I can't wait 'til I get to see you girls! I have missed you all! We'll be in OC next weekend, so if you are free... :D Here's a little something to enjoy, it's the cutie on Supernatural... haha

Ouch!

Wow, this is kind of fun... I love our password, btw.

Anyway. I have to remember to check this thing to catch up on what everyone is doing!

Personally, I've been going to the beach nonstop for the past couple weeks. Unfortunately, it's caught up with me. I racked up an all-time high of 6 hours in the water yesterday. For us fair-skinned ladies (uh, I mean... Jessica?), we know that this can't be good. My body is a nice brown color, but my face didn't withstand the sun as well. I look like a lobster... Or like I put my face in a frying pan. It's horrible. All swollen and red. Reeeaaallly red. At least you all have something to look forward to once I see you in SF! Yay... Hopefully the swelling will go down. :/

I'm very excited for our first night out on the town in SF! I'm hoping that I'll be able to handle the massive load of Patron shots that I know I'll be pressured to take. We all know how I held up last time at Mood. (Blech.)

See you all soon!

Jen

i was wondering what this was...i got an email from this site with no info on who sent it. anyhoo...i love the idea Alisa!

I just talked to Dana yesterday (she got into the states the night before) and of course she had an amazing time in europe. i told her that we were hoping to celebrate her birthday on saturday in sf...and i think we should celebrate Rashon's b'day then too since it's only a week later. I can't wait!!!

Right now I am getting ready to go get my eyebrows done...must attract those sf boys! i'm also watching bridget jones diary. just finished watching pride and prejudice and needed another dose of collin firth. watched it with my mother, who loved it and said my dad and bro wouldn't enjoy it because "it was all about feelings." [love mothers!]

ok, i can go on and on but will stop now. see you all in a few days! whoo hooo!!!

Greetings

I like it Alisa, good times. So let me update all you all on my life. I just got finished cleaning the bathroom. I did the basics, tub-sink-toilet, but I'm waiting for my roomate to leave and then I'm going to attack the walls, there's hair and lint clinging to them (think it has something to do with statiic) and it's grossing me out but I need to wait till my roomate leaves because she thinks I clean too much as it is. You should have seen her look of shock when I cleaned our mini-blinds. Hey! an allergic girl's got a do what an allergic girl's gotta do! I'm all packed for San Francisco. I'm going to leave here at about 4:00 in the morning to make my LAX flight at 7:00. Me an Nams will see you all soon! Are you guys totally excited or what? Nams, Dana and I won't leave for Chico until late afternoon/evening on Sunday so we can hang out during the morning/day with y'all then too. Oh! Also, on Saturday you guys can feel free to stay in our hotel and chip in (the price divided by all of us would be super cheap) in case we stay out late at night and you guys don't want to drive back to Rashon's. Just a thought. Okay, see ya soon!
