Election Day

(So my post is a few hours early... but I actually have a free minute!)

November 4th, 2008 is finally here! I've already voted and am quite frankly, tired of hearing about the election. I do encourage everyone to vote though. If you don't vote, you have no right to complain when things go down the toilet ;-)

I think these kids say it best:



Full Version:



Happy Voting!

Boo-ed

Carrie boo-ed me and now I'm off to boo you so be on the lookout!!!

Here's how it works:

Go to as many friends as you want and tell them they've been "Boo-ed". Have them link back to your blog to pick up their Halloween Treat (picture) and tell them to "Boo" their friends. Then, put the picture in your side bar so everyone knows that you've already been "Boo-ed" and to send the pic to someone else.

Happy Boo-ing!!!

I had a...

lazy weekend for once. It was so lovely.

I read Nicholas Spark's new book. It was so good. Soooooo good. There's nothing like a good book. I started it Saturday morning and finished it Sunday night, I just couldn't put it down.

I also helped Justin finish re-potting our green house plants from my grandfather and great-grandmother's funerals.

Of course, we watched the GA game. GO DOGS!

I literally spent most of my weekend in my jammies. It was so nice.

This week is a short week. We don't have class on Friday due to Fall Break. All I have is a paper due which I knocked out earlier tonight. So I hope I get a few more restful days in!!!

Oh and how about this cold weather?!? Me no likey!

Have a good week!

Sweet Tooth

With Halloween approaching, my roommate and I had a discussion about our favorite candy a few weeks ago. I've been craving two things we discussed since then, and I can't find them anywhere.

One is crybaby bubble gum. I love anything sour. Do you know what I'm talking about? They look like this:



The other is Smarties Lollies. They've always been a favorite. They look like this:




Have any clue where I can get either one of them? I've looked online and found them, but shipping is 9 bucks or so and that's just ridiculous!

I realize that it is quite sad that I am blogging about candy, but I have a sweet tooth. And when I get a craving, it's all downhill from there.

Happy Hump Day

Not much to report here. I have a genetics test of Friday so that's what I'm devoting this week to. I have NO TESTS next week (first time all semester!) so I'm really looking forward to this weekend.

It's beginning to look a lot like... HALLOWEEN! It's my roommate's favorite holiday so we're very Halloweeny. I would take some photos, but my camera is at home.

Anyway, enjoy your day, only two days left till the weekend after today.

A little "holiday" cheer:

Distraction is key

Ma had a wonderful turnout at the visitation and funeral. I'm keeping my mind on other things at the moment, or attempting to, so that I don't spend my entire days crying. I'm struggling a lot at the moment, to be honest (with you and myself).

Yesterday, Justin and I planned to do pumpkin carving with my cousins to help distract them from all the sadness. Thought I'd share some photos:
