Marry me, Bill!

Hurricane Bill caused me to go way back in my magical musical trunk. I was suddenly singing The Wedding Bell Blues. (You know it...the one that goes.... Marry me, Bill! I love you so- I always will! And if you are like me that was the only part you knew.) Thanks to the wonder of the internet, mp3 players, digital remastering, and google I now own that song and know ALL the words! Although, now that I know all the words the song has shifted from what I thought was a sweet proposal song to something different. Now it is kinda like "damnit, Bill, I loved you when you were a loser- so freaking marry me!" What a catch this Bill must be.

School starts in 5 days! YAY! I have all my books and went this past weekend to buy my spiral notebooks and folders. I managed to go a little more psychotic than usual by making sure the spiral notebooks and folders are color coordinated. I figure bright orange for my Media Writing class... you know, bright orange demands attention, attention makes me think of paparazzi, paparazzi makes me think of gossip, gossip makes me think of writing, and writing= media writing. My purple notebook and folder for my Survey of United States History II class. I think of history and think of royalty, royalty makes me think purple. Even though it was pointed out to me that my logic on that one is flawed because it is U.S. history- to me, "history" is all clumped together so it works. And last but certainly not least I will use my sea green notebook and folder for my Social Problems class. To me the sea green is a very introspective color and makes me think of intelligence, intelligence makes me think of science, intelligent science makes me think of how people's minds work, thus sea green is perfect for this class. I hope you have enjoyed this trip into my mind.

This weekend is my trip to Cincinnati and Louisville! We are headed out Saturday morning to Cincinnati with Dwayne's brother and his wife and son. A Red's baseball game, some famous Cincinnati chili and some late night adult partying are on the agenda. The next day Dwayne and I are making the short trip to Louisville for a Taylor Swift concert and some bingo! I am so excited because I have never gambled with bingo before and I hear it is super fun! On Monday we are going to tour the Louisville Slugger Museum and try and see Churchill Downs before heading back for me to go to class.

I am feeling almost 100% lately. I still have a little cough here and there but I think I have finally almost conquered this latest bout of illness. (It only took the entire month of August!)

I really hate my job lately. A lady actually yelled, "I'm asking you to work with me here! How do you sleep at night!? You are a horrible person!!" and hung up on me today and I wasn't even mean. That kind of thing is getting old. I have a goal not to leave until Jan 14th, 2010. I'm just going to have to shut up and stick to my plan. I have created a little inspirational countdown calendar and only have to come in here 95 more days including today! I can do it!

My writing has slowed lately in preparation for school so I am a little disappointed about that but I think once I get into class and get my schedule mastered I can add writing back in. I am going to be amazingly busy with classes MTW and a late night on Thursdays at work but am going to try and update this thing more often. (Ahhh, famous last words of many a blogger.)

10 songs from my ipod on shuffle:

Irvine- Kelly Clarkson
Paradise City- Guns N Roses
Take a Bow- Rihanna
Picture to Burn- Taylor Swift
Take it to the Limit- The Eagles
Lady- Little River Band
I Second that Emotion- Smokey Robinson and The Miracles
Last Day of Magic- The Kills
Faith- George Michael
How do I Live- Trisha Yearwood

Cross your fingers that I get rich quick at Bingo this weekend!
