It's been a while since I've posted since I keep misplacing my camera. I'm horrible at remembering where I put things. Then, when I do find it, I'm too busy to upload. Just to update anyone who cares, here's my life:
Work:
I'm still working two jobs. They're going alright. My store shut down and I had to relocate to another one, but that's okay. I've also switched schools that I'm working at, but I'm not at a loss there either. I got some cool stuff when my store closed. 2 20" TV's for $12, a DVD player for $15, a giant cabinet to put in the laundry room for $25, plus the entire series of Rome and tons of other stuff.
Spouse:
My husband is still absolutely wonderful. I leave him alone a lot because of work, but he doesn't give me a hard time about it and he's always there for me. He even helps with the dishes these days. =)
Pets:
I've lost 2 of my pets: Jezzy the bunny and Dante the ferret. I also had one of my old dogs (Meeko) that stayed back in Cali pass away. He was the hardest to lose. The rest of our "farm" is doing well.
House:
I'm in the process of getting new blinds and curtains for my house and fixing up my closet so that our clothes actually fit. Okay, to be honest, I'm buying and Curt's stuck installing. The house needs to be cleaned once again, but I keep telling myself that I can wait till the closets are done since it'll be easier then. I should just suck it up and clean, but I'm sick or exhausted frequently and when I do have the energy I choose to be lazy.
Visits:
My mother came out to visit this summer. It was fun and nerve racking at the same time. My mom's sheer presence can set me on edge even if she's done nothing to warrant it. I hate that, but maybe it's just a mom thing.
I got to see Nicole and her mother this summer when they came to visit. We went out to Gaitlinburg for dinner and then just chatted and watched a movie. I also got to see Holly and her boyfriend when we met up in North Carolina. We had a delicious Italian dinner and then went and played at the U.S. National Whitewater Center the next day. Mo came up and went to Boomsday with us, which was absolutely awesome. She also came out earlier in the year and brought me yummy chocholates from Switzerland and beautiful photos of Greece to make me uber jelous!

Free Time:
I got obsessive about reading over the summer and I've read a book every day or every other day since mid-June (see my reading blog). I even branched out from historical fiction and started reading mysteries, and fantasy/paranormal books. I don't know I how I got addicted to vampires and werewolves, but... no wait, I do. Blame Twilight and Sookie Stackhouse books. Yes, I know Twilight is cheesy, but I enjoyed it. Curt already bought me tickets for the midnight showing of New Moon so I'm excited. The fact that he's willing to suffer through it just proves he loves me. =)
I tried running a bit this summer, but the weather seemed to be against me. Also, not getting home till 11 pm does little for my safety. I've decided that I'm getting an elliptical for the holidays this year. Now, I just need to convince someone to get it for me. ;) JK, unless there's someone who really does want to get me one.
Yeah, so my life has been busy, but boring at the same time. I'm not complaining though. Uneventful also means calm in my world and I like it when I don't feel like my world is falling apart.
