Un-named


Creativity escapes me tonight. Okay, well maybe it escaped earlier tonight. I made a bunch of thank you cards for the girls I play softball with. Tuesday night will be our last game. :( Making the cards is where all my creativity went today.

It was a pretty low-key day. Just worshipped, finished the 2nd year of Harry Potter, ate, made cards, joked around with my sister, and here I am now. I probably should sleep. There is a lot of fishing to do tomorrow. I have work to do but, really people, I only have three days left in Wisconsin, there is always time for work later. FISH FISH FISH!

Enjoy the picture of me chilling in my room. Very exciting life here in Rhinelander, WI.

Playing Barbie Games.



Tonight, my friend, Marla, came up for dinner and to play some games. We played dominoes and ladderball, but the highlight was The Barbie Queen of the Prom game. It was a blast. I realy wanted to get Poindexter for my boyfriend but ended up with Tom, who looked like a 40 year old. I am not quite that desperate yet! :)

In order to win, you had to get a boyfriend, buy a prom dress, be a President of a school club and get to the prom first. I did not win. Pretty much sounds like my high school life though, doesn't it? I know, it really doesn't. I am amazed I even graduated seeing I was no prom queen and only had one serious boyfriend.

Sometimes Barbie makes me angry. The things that we teach little girls through this doll, who could not even walk if she were a real woman, is sickening. Oh well, we do a lot of dumb things to screw people up. Enough said.

I am tired. Must sleep. Church in the morning. :) Last Sunday home. :(

Wish I had more energy to make more fun of Barbie. Oh well!

Three Funny Things about Alice

1. When she goes biking, sometimes she is scared she will run into bears. She pedals much faster than usual and really doesn't enjoy herself.

2. She thinks it is funny that the only thing to prove she caught three fish today was that her hand smelt like fish. Crazy, funny and weird.

3. She likes Brett Favre and has been his fan for many season as a Packer fan. Right now she isn't a Favre fan. If you are going to say you are retired, just retire and get it over with. Do not come to the team you play for weeks before training camp and want to play again. Get a life. Go fishing or something. Let the team move on. I hope they trade him(not to a team within the same conference) and that he has a not so good season(I am trying to be nice because really I would love to see him injured during week one!)

There are lots more funny things about me. Cherish the ones you just read, though. It was a good day. Slept in, lounged around, went biking, fished, played trivia, lounged some more, worked, and now I will sleep again.

Hummingbird Haven!






My parents have two hummingbird feeders. It is always enjoyable to sit and watch these tiny birds come and eat. Today was interesting because the birds kept fighting each other. My dad and I must have been entertained by them for about an hour.

It was also storming and we often are out on the porch enjoying a good thunderstorm. Not a bad day in the Northwoods of Wisconsin.

Now off to play softball. Should be fun as always, if not a little muddy and wet!

Spoiled Rotten Girl!




Today, I actually worked on the project I was supposed to be working on all summer. SIGH. It is coming along but slowly. Why is it that I can't ever get anything done unless it is last minute? What a weirdo.

What a spoiled brat too. I got two new pairs of shoes today as well as a pair of cargo Capris and a pair of shorts. My mom is way too good to me. She is definitely one of those people in my life that I will never be able to thank enough. Just giving me life alone, but then all the stuff she does for me and buys me. Thanks Mom!

Not much else to note today. I do have a date for fishing tomorrow. A guy my mom knows really wants me to fish on his "private" lake. (sounds fishy doesn't it, punny too!) Anyway. He said I could go to his house anytime and fish from his dock. I really don't know how to get there so one of my friends that I play trivia with volunteered to take me there tomorrow. Unfortunately, it is supposed to be stormy all day. SIGH. Luckily, there are more days in the week. I will get out there sometime. It should be pretty fun.

Well, spoiled brat must get her beauty sleep. I hear fish like to bite the lures of pretty people. :)
