Photos of a various nature....
I got a new phone! As an early Christmas present to ourselves, Mike & I got the T-Mobile G1
It is lovely, lovely and a lot of fun. It can browse the Internet (not needed but cool), has a full Qwerty keyboard (I text a lot, so this is really cool), and a touch screen. It also has GPS which is great for me because I get lost easily. It's also fully integrated with Google, so I love it.
Next week: I have to take the test to keep my teaching license! Boo! But this week I have two days off thanks to Veteran's Day! Yeah! I will hpefully be using these days to study & prepare.
So..pictures!
YEAAH!! I don't care how many people were quickly trying to rain on the parade of Obama supporters after the election. It was pure elation! The negative people and the people who are made because "their" side didn't win this time can truly bite me. There were a lot of us who felt nothing but sadness over what happened four years ago. They can suck it up now and deal with their own dissapointment their own way. I for one and excited for January and what President Obama will bring.

Murphy, the ultimate badass of my household! He's really the best kitty ever and he looks nice in this picture.

Pictures from my new phone of 2 puppy children! I love the way my chihuahua Ollie looks in this pic. HHH kitty (Helmsley) not pictured because he kept running away from the camera!

lastly, new hair! (This was taken with my old cell phone...there is a quality difference). I like it a lot. It takes me 14 seconds to get ready now. I think next time I get a cut, I want to do the bangs a little different, but I still like it.
Final thoughts?
How is everyone else doign?
Voting!
So I cut off all my hair. All of it. My current length is now comparable to Mia Farrow's in Rosemary's Baby & I'm THRILLED! I hate taking care of hair & "doing it", so my morning routine is not about 15 minutes. One super pig that I work with (seriously...I hate this guy), had the nerve to inform me that men don't like girls with short hair. I told him my husband likes me fine and bit my tongue before something rude came flying out!
Seriously...I think short hair can be plenty sexy!
Anyone else excited for Lesnar vs. Couture? My hubby got the day off (I have to take a test in order to keep my teaching license and there was no way I was driving down to UNLV by myself...too scary!), so now we're going to pop into one of the local casino bars and watch the fight. While my M.M.A. boyfriend is G.S.P (Georges St. Pierre), mostly because he is the fittest guy I've ever seen and he wears such tiny, tiny shorts to the ring......I do understand that fighting is not all about who has the tightest rear end!
It will be an interesting fight. Lesnar is brutal, but he's also still lacking some expirience. That's gotten the best of him before (see his fight with Frank Mir).
Lastly, Sylent posted a very intelligent discourse on Prop 8 in California. I do not live in California, but I came across this picture on the internet.

Sasha Baron Cohen dressing up as one of his characters with a group of "Yes! on 8" Protestors. Now, here is my deal.
Guy In The Green....who are you trying to fool? At first I thought you were a gay guy that showed up to argue with the protestors. But now, I'm assuming because your shirt does resemble the "Yes! on 8" shirts that you are there on their behalf. But really? If that's true and you're not just wearing it to be ironic or you're not really wearing a "No! on 8" shirt......you are so closeted it hurts. It's bananas that you expect anyone to believe you are a heterosexual male. I like how even the guy wearing the black shirt behind you is moving down his sunglasses as if to say..."Gurl, Please!".
The end! (I know immature...but really? Guy in green! Save yourself now!)
P.S. Here's to hoping that come Monday, President Obama will be a fact!
I'm Not Dead!
Just busy as all get out. I feel bad that I haven't gotten a chance to update this or to comment on anyone elses blogs in forever. I still love all of you!
Basically, since the school year started my life has been packed full with no stopping. I did a money-smart, but personal life stupid thing in selling my prep (non-teacher speak: Basically teachers are given an hour each day to complete our correcting & such....they needed extra classes & I sold mine. So I now teach all day long).
I get home from school, head on out to the gym, come home to correct papers & leave each day TIRED!
On a sports note: I found a love that might equal that of pro-wrestling. MMA Fighting (But not Brock Lesnar...I boo his ass, for no other reason than that he married Sable).
What have ya'll been up too?
10 Things About Me
It's supposed to be ten right? Anyway, here we go!
1. I have never met my father. Because of stuff that happened before my birth even, my mother had his rights terminated as soon as legally possible. I don't even know his name, that section on my birth certificate is left blank
(no one else ever finds that funny) I know because of something my Uncle said that my father had other children with other women. Sometimes I think I would like to find them and meet them.
2. I love clothes! I buy something new almost weekly and I have an entire closet dedicated to just me at my house. My next "goal", a pair of True Religion jeans, when I reach my goal weight.
3. All through school, I was a total goody-goody honor roll, cheerleader, class representative type. My husband mocks me endlessly for this.
4. I currently teach 8th grade English & I love it. I'm one of those people that wanted to be a teacher her entire life.
5. All the actors I find hot are old enough to be my father and/or have gray hair (Small list: Vincent D'Onfrinio (Goren on Law & Order:CI), Anderson Cooper, William Peterson (Grissom on CSI), William Regal, Viggo (Aragorn in LOTR) etc. This probably says something about my physchology & the fact that I grew up without a father that I'm not ready to work through yet ![]()
6. My husband & I met and bonded over our love of pro wrestling. He thought I was mocking him for liking it, so we ended up having a "wrestling knowledge throwdown" when we first met. I guess I passed the test because we started watching RAW and such together shortly afterwards & officially dating about two months afterwards. WWE BRINGS PEOPLE TOGETHER!
7. Other than a surgery breaking my upper palette of my jaw (to fix my "jaw alignment" and help me breath better), I haven't ever broken any bones. *knock on wood*
8. I love animals. I current have two cats & two dogs (all rescues). In my dream world, I would have a farm out in the middle of nowhere full of animals that needed homes.
9. I work out a lot and I love it! A friend and I laughed about the fact that we are both probably egomaniacs when during one of those work "bonding" activities where we had to fill in a little bubble about ourselves, both of our bubbles were all about how we like to work out and look good. ![]()
In reality, I think it has to do with the fact that my entire family is obese & has health problems. I've known since I was little that I didn't want that to happen to me.
10. I love energy drinks & caffeine in all forms. I go through coffee, Sugar Free Amp, Enviga, etc like water!
There we go! That was harder than I thought to come up with 10 things about me that I would consider "interesting".
Woo!
Very good friends wedding was tonight (I was a bridesmaid), it was interesting to say the least. I love though how after getting married, Mike and I spent the whole way home cataloging the ways our wedding was better..
We are turning into a catty old married couple.
I will probably get in trouble for talking about boobs....but our bridesmaid dresses were terrible. On anyone over a B cup (thank God I lost the weight when I did) you looked like the Whore of Babylon. It was beyond cleavage and into disgusting. Only myself & another girl weren't spilling out of it. Of course, we had one bridesmaid who is an attention whore and spent the whole night reminding everyone how her boobs were falling out of dress!!! OMG!!! She couldn't even dance because her boobs might fall out!!! OMG!!! She had to walk with her arms over her chest and continually tell everyone in hearing distance about her boobs!!! Can you tell which girl got a little annoyed?
I love her as a person, but alcohol & single men don't really bring out the best in her personality.
My friend (the bride) though looked crazy beautiful & a perfect bride. It was a very nice wedding.
The things that was beyond cool was the attendent gifts. My friend and her now hubby got us all Ipod Shuffles. They had a pretty large wedding party, so I don't even want to think about cost! She also engraved a little personal message to all of us on the back, so it's cute. I love that I went from no ipods to two though in under a week..![]()
Anyway off to find some food, I think I'm going to do the "10 things about me" at some point this week because it seems like every else did it!
