I've been pretty sick lately. I have trouble sleeping at night. Sucks....

So I'm an insomniac housewife at the moment. I feel like I've been really bad about putting things off. Little things and big things. I really need to clean the apartment. I'm not sure if I'm that kind of "delirious tired"; like I wanna do something to stay awake.

When I do sleep, I have a lot of crazy dreams. Then I wake up and think "Wow, that would make a great story."
Then I get ideas and my head gets full of stuff. I just want to execute that stuff...

Hrmm. Express didn't call me back. They were supposed to call last week. I guess I'm still an unemployed insomniac housewife. Maybe I'll go clean something.....

I wish Harvest Moon: Animal Parade was out already.

/end insomnia rant

Well, I've been crazy busy lately. Wow.

So did I mention I was getting married. Well, I am now. Doesn't really feel that much different. But I suppose it's only different for the people that don't live together first.

So obviously I've got tons of pictures. Let me mention that it was a very hot day in June. And we did the whole thing outside. The nice part: The ceremony took like 10 minutes. The sucky part: My mom was 45 minutes late and we couldn't start the wedding without her. (I'm not gonna rant about that now. I'd be here all day...)

^ It took Hilary (my maid of honor) and Colleen (Travis's mom) both to lace up the stupid wedding dress.

^ I'm not sure exactly what I'm ranting about in this pic. Probably the fact that I was really hungry and all I had was a smoothie from Sonic.

[link]
^ Here's Hillary, Austin, and Gooch being silly.

[link]
^ Me trying to calm my nerves by playing FF3. I couldn't beat the Salamander so it didn't help.

[link]
^ Me being so hot (temperature wise) makes me look like a spanish senorita when I'm trying to fan myself.

[link]
^ Hillary and Hilary being silly.

[link]
^ My sister Erin. Keep your paws off guys -- she's only 14!

[link]
^ My dad and I at the altar. We are laughing because the feedback from the preacher microphone made this loud obnoxious sound.

[link]
^ Ceremony stuff.

[link]
^ Kiss.

[link]
^ Up the aisle.

[link]
^ Travis and Me looking cute. Omg, we were burning up outside.

[link]
^ Me looking pretty and sweaty. lol

[link]
^ Happy cake shot.

[link]
^ Awesome face I make when I have cake in my mouth. (apparently)

So, yeah. I had to change after all of that. My dress had like 7 layers to it! But it was pretty. I'm surprised how dark I look in white. I never wear it so I guess I never noticed.

^ Just for the heck of it. I really like towel origami now.

Well, hope you enjoyed some of the piccys. There's more if you really care, even really bad looking ones at: [link]
(I swear, it just looks like I'm touching my boobs in that one pic. I'm really not! lol)

BTW, our song is Strangers in the Night by Frank Sinatra. We surprised the heck out of our families just cuz they don't realize how weird we are.

So yeah, my b-day was yesterday. But since Travis was working from home, I didn't get to use the computer. Oh well.

So.....yeah.

I'm 21 now. I didn't really go out and party or anything. I'm not that person to go out and get shit-faced all the time.

So, I went out and had a sushi dinner with my family and Travis's parents. Got some gift cards and money which is always nice. And some disney movies as an added bonus! (Monsters Inc, Bolt, and Incredibles)

So then Travis, Hillary and I went to the bar/mexican restaurant across the street. The waitress didn't even card me! Kinda anti-climactic.
Bruce and Karina showed up later and I got another gift card (gamestop) So Karina and I decided to get drunk since neither of us had to work the next day. So I had a really strong frozen strawberry margarita, tequila sunrise (good!), royal f--- (so glad it was cold!), jager-bomb (which was pre-mixed. a big no no), and a aqua julius (i think).

I'm just so thankful that I'm not annoying drunk. I just get really giggle-y. But I can still spell and conjugate sentences. Which gets helpful when you're playing drunk scrabble. Makes a grammar-nazi like me very happy.

So I'm writing this morning and I don't even have a hangover. I thought one drink was gonna do me but I guess not. Meh... I'll still drink in moderation. It's not fun if your getting smashed every night.

Oh yeah, and my wedding's next week! I'll be sure to post a ton of pics!

So lots of nice things happened this Christmas. I worked my butt off at work for the holidays (recession my ass!). We got a Wii. And I finally got me a little kitty cat! Very exciting. Oh, and by the way.....

I'M GETTING MARRIED!



Travis proposed back at the end of November but I didn't want to say anything until we got the ring made.

I was so happy I cried.

Okay, so good stuff happening. I got me a new job at Barnes & Nobles. I took a bit of a pay cut but I'm getting way more hours and generally I'm a lot happier about work so that counts for something, huh.

Um, other stuff...hmmm. Oh, I downloaded some episodes of Nana. I'm gonna try and get Travis to watch it with me. He liked the movie alright.

I finally finished The Stand (Stephen King). I can't find the movie anywhere though, which sucks...I also found out that they are making The Stand into a comic book. I'm really happy about that because I just love the characters and the story-line. While I do like the movie/miniseries, I feel like they just left out too much and I'd love to see that in the form of a well made comic book. I'm definitely looking forward to it.

I would like to work on some more art. I'm trying hard to save up for my own laptop. That way I can use that for school and artsy stuff as well as Princess Maker 2. So right after I get new brakes and some other stuff my car needs I can work on that.

Btw, my wisdom teeth stopped hurting (for now).
