going for a record...

i went for a record for number of trips to and from g-vegas in one weekend. my weekend, in short (actually, this will probably end up being really long)...

went to g-vegas on friday night to see "thank you for smoking." i haven't decided if i like it or not. it was funny, but there was so much that was strange that i'm just not making an opinion about it.

coffee underground after the movie. they have really good chicken salad sammiches. i highly suggest them.

watched "the incredibles" after we got back. that is a really cute movie. got home at around 4 am, due to a certain boy who will remain nameless, won't he joseph?

woke up at 9 am. what the heck? i couldn't sleep in if my life depended on it. i must not be normal (yes, i know we already know this one). it really irritates me to be unable to sleep in.

went to g-vegas saturday so i could give my shoes to kp to get them dyed for the wedding. my house was in uproar. seriously. they've moved all of the furniture. ALL of it. i also have been deprived of half of my closet. it's not really a problem since i don't really use it too much, but it's really the principle of the matter. oh well...

joe and i went downtown after the shoe swap and wandered around. greenville is really getting to be a great place. there were tons of people down at falls park. kids playing in the water. it was great. went to spill the beans and got my favorite ice cream: chocolate with dark chocolate chips, brownies, and pecans. yum yum yum. anyway, it was a lovely way to spend such a nice day. and the company wasn't so bad either...

came back and started to read an article for biomaterials class. read the first page 15 times. made no sense.

played frisbee golf with joe, ben, and david. that was funny, because i'm terrible at it. that whole distance thing is a bit beyond me. i'm working on it, though. my aim has improved, at least. went to bed around 2. my sleeping habits have gotten a bit strange lately. usually, i'm in bed by 12 (not because i'm sleepy...simply because i've run out of things to do in a given evening and i choose to go to bed), but i've been staying up until 1 and 2 (and occasionally 7:45) in the morning lately. it's not like it's a bad thing...i just happen to have noticed it.

i hate pollen. i really don't like it. i LOOOOVE spring. i hate the stupid green stuff that comes with it. it means that i can walk outside for two minutes and be unable to breathe. usually there's some sniffing involved, which is way hot and stuff. just wanted to make my stance on pollen known.

i overslept this morning by about an hour. only reason i woke up was the lutheran church's bells at 9. i saw the clock and flipped out, since i had to be ready to go at 9:45. i was almost ready at 9:43 (not that i looked at the clock or anything...), so i went to dry my hair and asked shea to let joe in when he got here, since i wouldn't hear him. i spaced out doing my hair, so imagine my severe surprise when i glance left and joe is standing (looming...lurking...) in the doorway of the bathroom. i was so startled that i screamed like i've never screamed before, dropped my hairbrush in the sink and sank into what you could call the fetal position. it was basically me being so freaked out that i had to sit down to gather my wits. yeah. joe is such a scary person.

went to g-vegas AGAIN (yes, that's three separate trips this weekend) for church and lunch with my family. joe went with me and got to meet my family. that was fun. church was a lot of saying hi to people i hadn't seen in a long time and introducing joe to them all.

lunch was yummy. salmon, mac and cheese (got an entire pan of it to bring back!!!), salad, deviled eggs, rolls, and white chocolate raspberry cheesecake. thought i'd make you hungry by telling you that.

came back, decided not to have girls' Bible study, got double scoop ice cream cones with Julie instead. laid around and ate chocolate bunnies after that. good times.

made an apple pie. i have realized that i have been slack. i baked with such a vengeance last semester, but i have hardly made anything this semester. maybe i'll pick up again next semester. i really love baking. i just haven't had the time this semester. i could really go for some of my chocolate chocolate chip cookies right about now.

spent another 3.5 hours today and FINALLY figured out the gist of the biomaterials article, got my mini-essay done and am currently writing this. i might should go to bed soon.

got some Texas dp's from momma. good stuff. should be sold in clemson. i love that stuff. it spoils me and i can't go back to the regular stuff. also acquired some insanely large and heavy peace-sign earrings that are tye-dyed enamel with gold foil in the enamel. they are heinous, but way cool because my dad got them at woodstock in '94.

okay. probably going to bed soon. thankfully no tests this week...
