I'm watching The Price Is Right. Uh... I think I need to go find a DVD for background noise.

I'm going to go to the gym today. I've got work from 3 to 4, so I think I'm going to go hit the treadmill beforehand. It's time to get back into shape.

New blog post: http://blog.phoenixfyre.net/2008/10/14/running-away-with-the-circus-brb/ I'm not doing my homework. I'm posting links about everything from Iron Man 2 casting news to twittering like a pro to paranormal romances to lolcats.

Hai, I iz bored.

I don't remember if I mentioned this in my LJ or not. Across the street from my block there is an empty field. I went over there in the Spring and took pictures of the wild flowers and trees. I hoped that they would leave it just like that.

Well, they chopped down all the trees and it looks like they are going to build there. Why couldn't they have left that as a green area or a park? I know. Money.

( Trees and grass and flowers )

On a happy note. I have funny stories to tell about Odin's adventures this past weekend.

I'll post that later today or tomorrow. :)

Sign up for round 5 of disneyvil_lims! Awesome community with great challenges =D

This is riveting stuff here (note the imaginary sarcasm sign):

I applied for a job as a receptionist at the Creek Nation. My cousin's best friend is the one doing the hiring, so Mom
thinks that I'm pretty much in. Especially since Forbes (the best friend) is just about family to us. So, that might be
kinda awesome. I'll let you guys know if that happens.

My nephew Maxwell went to his very first concert on Saturday. He went with his dad (my brudder Sam) to see Drake
Bell at the Tulsa State Fair. When Nathan and I went to pick them up, Max had the biggest, shiniest eyes I've ever
seen on the kid. He used the words "incredible" and "amazing." He went on to declare that Drake is "the greatest
rock star ever of all time." It was adorable.

My other nephew Julian learned this phrase, "How bout this, I'll punch you." Totally cute and a little scary coming
from a two year old.

I spent like $100 on a fundraiser for one of my other nephews, Zachary. He needed help for a band trip. He's very
excited. I might be the favorite aunt in this case, so there Snucius.

I just realized that I have quite a few nephews. I haven't even mentioned Bobby or Edward. I haven't really seen them
that much recently. Ed came over the other day. Played Rock Band and we took him with us to Bixby to pick up the
fundraiser stuff I bought. I did hear that he had a girlfriend at some point and I told him I couldn't take hearing that.
He laughed at me then.

Seeing as how that's about it, I suppose I will wrap this up by saying, I'm still totally confused by Sunday's Mad Men.
What the hell, Don Draper? What the hell?

I've gotten over my initial reaction to the end of last night's True Blood

I've determined that I cannot talk about an episode of True Blood without bringing up comparisons from the books. So expect episode and books spoilers here.

( Cold Ground - it wasn't so bad really )

I haven't done this in a while, but I really need extra votes. Especially in moonlightrumble
