When In London.

London has been great thus far.  Everything is damn expensive.  Everyone is hustlin` & bustlin'.  The streets are lively.  Never a lack of uninteresting passersby.  The accents.. oh the accents!  I love it.

I am so fascinated with my little nephew (my cousin's son!) everytime he speaks.  Even my cousin & his wife's accents have changed.  So awesome.  Hahah!

We've pretty much seen all the staples here in London.  Most of the must-sees.  We didn't do any tours or go inside really.  We missed our chance to see inside Westminster Abbey due to my misjudgement on the Tube rails/paths.  We ended up walking another 20 minutes to get to the church.  By then the service was ending :(  Ugh.

We did take a tour of the Chelsea stadium (Soccer/Futbol) today though.  This was moreso for Peter than me.  Haha.  He looked like a little kid in a candy store, all googly-eyed & drooling at the site before him.  He's happy now.

As long as we get to go to Stonehenge, I will be satisfied.  Seriously.  That's all I want to see.  Anyhow, I'm pretty pooped.  Night night.

Sex Dream Interrupted

"Inside every older person is a younger person wondering what happened."
 ~Jennifer Yane


Hahahaha, SO SO true!  A friend of mine posted all these photos of us during our Freshman year of college.  In looking back on these things, you really can't help yourself but wonder, where did all that time go?  What happened?  How did we get to this point now?  

I feel like the past 5 years have been such a blur.  An awesome blur that I wish could go on forever.  Then there's reality.  We're growing up!  Kinda.  I'd prefer to be a kid forever.  I'll try my hardest to resist the oncoming reality.

Oh, before I forget... I had awesome dreams last night.  The first had a bunch of my good friends, but I don't clearly remember the details.  My second dream... it was so vivid.  It took place in the room that I fell asleep in.  The time, the daylight, everything matched up between my dreamstate & reality.  I was laying in bed with my boyfriend (in my dream) and then as I was about to rip his clothes off, mount him, & have the greatest sexual extravaganza of my life.... I hear "Baby, it's 9:22. You should get up."  HAHAHAH.  Ultimate epic fail.  Total buzzkill.  I can't believe I was woken up from my dream.  It was going to be epic.  I've been waiting for a "sex dream" for a while.  Have you ever had one?  It's pretty amazing.  HAHA.  My dreams lately have been so vivid.  So happy.  I woke up this morning with a smile :)

Just a slight afterthought to tie the picture in more....

Everyday should be like your birthday.  Reborn.  Refreshed.  Renewed.  A new day.  A happy day.

The photo above is the birthday cake that I got for Peter earlier this month.  It's a single layer German Chocolate Cake.  It was quite delicious.

I Likey The Dresses.

I seem to have taken a liking to dresses over the course of this past year.  They're rather convenient and easy to slip on.  It was a bit cold on this day (Sunday) so I wore tights.  I slipped off my jacket once I got in the house.  I made it back home just before the thunderstorm kicked up and the rain started falling.  Yay.  I'm lucky Lexi is always a willing model.  She's such a good girl.

I just realized that almost everything I'm wearing I got for super cheap.  HAHA.  

- Hurley Dress- $2.99
- Puma Roma Shoes- $19.99
- Beanie- $6.99
- Tights- $1.50

Anyhow, yesterday Peter & I got some Papa John's Pepperoni pizza after he got off of work.  We stopped by the grocery store to get some snacks while we waited for our pizza.  When we got home, we ate all but one slice, drank a bunch of soda, ate a bunch of chips, & munched on some twinkies.  Goodness.  Junk food addicts.  Sometimes I wonder how my kidney's and everything else takes one all the crap food.  Haha.  It's ok though, it's been forever since I've had a pizza.  Now I just want more... :)

Of course... we passed out for the next couple of hours.  I woke up still SUPER full.  We then played scrabble and Peter finally succeeded in beating me during the last game.  BOO!  I had the crappiest letters everrrrr.  Rematch!

I woke up pretty early today.  I woke up to Lexi sleeping on the bed with me (as usual).  She couldn't last more than a day without doing this!  Ever since I washed all the sheets & pillows, I didn't allow the doggies on the bed.  I must've been sleeping really good if I didn't notice her sneak her way on.  Haha.

Once I was really awake, I wrote up three cover letters and sent out two of them.  I hope someone calls me back soooon!  I need a job.  A full-time job.  Once that happens, I can start saving up some moolah.  I've got my eyes set on all these goals.  I think I should create a vision board sometime soon.  It'll be nice to see all the things I want all in one place.  Yes, I think I'll do that.

Till then... job hunt continues!

Testing G1 Pixelpost


Taking a drive to Denver.  We have the same look on our face.  Haha!  I was testing out this application on my g1 and I guess it uploaded this photo to both of my blogs.  Strange.  I'll have to change that setting.  It's pretty nifty though.  I'm wondering if I'll have internet access on my phone while I'm in London?  I hope so!  I'll need to make a call to T-mobile as well to get the unlock code for my Blackberry.  Just in case... ya never know.  I'm sure they'll give me the code, even though I've had the phone for less than a year.  I've been with T-mobile for over 10 years now!  Seesh.  Have I really had a phone that long?!  Crazy.

Anywho, after I write up these invoices and send them out, I need to make a few phone calls and get things in order.  I also need to look for more jobs and write more cover letters.  At least Wellsfargo e-mailed to say I can schedule an appointment with them.  That's one opportunity!  This job hunting thing is getting depressing.  Haha.  At least I have London to look forward to!

My Babies







As promised, photos of my little big babies that I love so so much.  We've had Lexi for as long as Peter & I have been together.  Zeus became a part of the family about 8 months later.  I  gave these two munchkins a MUCH needed bath today.  Lexi was VERY well behaved, as expected.  Zeus on the other hand.... I wanted to kill him.  He was a nightmare!  Every chance he got, he would try to shake off all the water in his coat.  Lexi didn't get me wet at all, but Zeus... oh man.  The boy got me soaked!  Aside from his misbehaving, I have two fresh, clean babies now.  I brushed them both at least 5 times.  I need to brush them again tonight.  Oh the beauty of having a huskies!

Green Is A Restful Color.


Did you know:  Green is a restful color with some of the same calming attributes of blue. Like blue, time moves faster in a green room.

Green also denotes balance, harmony, & stability.  Green is one of my favorite colors; it's a stark contrast from my favorite above all, black.

I also decided a couple months ago that I want either a moss or tea green with a touch of yellow/gold as my wedding colors.  Unless I find some super awesome black dress(es), then you know...  Hahah.  I would TOTALLY rock a black wedding gown ;)  No worries.  I don't have 'wedding' on the brain.  Far from that actually.  Just need to keep these notes somewhere.

Anyhow, I should turn this blog into a "what I wear when I'm bored" kinda thing.  Haha.  Saturday, I was quite bored. I played with some make-up & made myself feel pretty.  Always nice.  Took some photos and played outside on the deck with my two baby dogs.  After that, I cleaned up a bit and watched season 2 of House!  Exciting.  That was pretty much my whole day.

Right now I have some website work that I need to get done.  I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the rest of the day though.  *sigh*  Maybe I'll play video games.  Hah.  We'll see.  Smile!

Asher Ida.

My pretty sweet hoodie that I bought yesterday! It's a Matix Asher Ida hoodie. I normally wouldn't wear purple, ever, but I think it went well with the mix of grays & black. Plus, I can't see the purple insides & the purple in the back, so it doesn't bother me as much. As long as I don't see the color 24/7, I can tolerate it! Haha. Strange logic indeed.  It's originally $67.95, but I got it for $20. Yay!  I love deals.

Yesterday Peter & I went down to Denver and went to Park Meadows. I got the hoodie, MAC eyeliner, & $13 worth of white & milk chocolate covered gummy bears from Sweet Factory. A bit indulgent with the sweets. Totally worth it though! I love chocolate covered gummy bears!

We finally got home after a looong drive & ran into a crazy old man carrying a rock, looking for a certain place. Peter tried to help the man out, but he quickly became irate, & ended up arguing with Peter. LOL. Something was truly not right with the guy. I was afraid he was going to come back and smash my car windows in >_<

After some lounging around & eating a bunch of junk food, Peter & I played some scrabble! I beat him! Twice! I hope he's up for a rematch tonight. Lol. He needs to increase his vocabulary. It's rather hard trying to work with 3, 4, sometimes 5 letter words after a while. Haha. He'll get better, hopefully!

Today, I turned in a cover letter & resume for this position I really want. It's located in Fort Collins though, but *cross fingers* I hope I have a chance at it at least!  Please, please, please.  Until I get a call back, I'll just have to wait and see and send out more cover letters & resumes.  Such is life.

Lastly, it's been 2 1/2 years since Peter & I have been together.  What a milestone eh?  Who would've thunk it?!
