1. We're moving today.
2. Snow is pretty.
3. Coffee smells good.
4. We have atleast 1 other person to help, which is nice.
5. New place! I know I should be really excited, but I'm not. I'm scared that it's going to be awful and I'll miss this place, which I haven't loved. Ack! I'm ridiculous! This place looks a lot better with 90% of our stuff at the new place. LOL!

1. Talking with my favorite customer 2 nights in a row. He's deaf and really nice.
2. I have today off.
3. I crocheted a really cute set of robots in love. I'll post pictures later.
4. We're almost ready to move everything (I'm really stressed about this).
5. Cookies! Who doesn't like cookies? I mean, come on... they're awesome.

I haven't been posting because I don't think this blog is working... I've been trying to revamp it in my head... but for now I'll just share these fun prints I bought from Paper Sparrow!

I'm not able to copy and paste the pictures, but here are the links:

I had a good weekend. If I could just feel happy for a full 24 hours, it would be a great weekend.

1. Room 4.
2. Springfield Brew Co.
3. Movies.
4. IHop.
5. Gailey's.
6. Bridal Expo.
7. Moved some things into the new apartment...
8. Bottle of wine.
9. The Goods.
10. How I Met Your Mother Season 3.
11. Stuffed crust pizza.

13. Ran into old friends.
14. Walgreens.
15. Car Lot Prize Event.

I think that pretty much sums it up.

Dilema:  A certain store may have fired my boyfriend unjustly... so, I don't want to shop at said store. I don't mind shopping at other chains of this store, but the one he worked at does not deserve my money........... but, hey have Punky Brewster for $5 and t-shirts for $4, not to mention SUPER CUTE Valentine's day stuff. HELP! It's the closest store in like 100 miles.

1. Breakfast date with Matt at IHop.
2. AVATAR! Great movie. It's so freaking pretty!
3. Crochet heart coaster. I've only made 1, but it was fun and is cute.
4. How I Met Your Mother Season 3.
5. More fun plans for the last of my weekend.

I really want breakfast! I'm very excited to eat french toast in the near future.

1. Halloween-tini at Room 4... delicious! And trying a White Russian and Bubblegum Vodka with Sprite! Delicious, as well!
2. Having from 7:30pm Friday until 2:30pm Monday off of work! Heaven!
3. Being in charge of designing not 1, but 2 endcaps at work! Yay craft expertise! I chose a paper themed end cap and a crochet one. Plus, I spent like 2 hours looking through books! Nothing better!
4. The wedding expo tomorrow. I am so excited! Maybe I'll meet some cool people and have some good connections! Wedding planning here I come!
5. Kleen-x. You've been my friend lately. Thank you.

Muah!

I don't know if it's worth it.

I love our line of Keep Calm and Carry On stuff at work. It's so fun!

1. I made a bear for my boss yesterday and I'm in love with it! It's so cute! Look at it's little face!

2. Reusuable bags. Funny story: A man bought Al Gore's Inconvient Truth and another book. When I asked him if he needed a bad he said "YES!" He was really offended that I even asked him. Isn't that ridiculous?

3. Fireworks. Matt's playing a funny game whe you make the fireworks explode.

4. Valentine's day! I love seeing pink and red everywhere! It's a good holiday after Christmas.

5. Vacation! It's soon!!!!

Oh! And happy 3 years and 7 months to Matt and me! Hooray!

Today's Saturday

1. Photobooth technology on the internet. I used BigHugeLabs for mine.

2. SNL with Lindsay Lohan. I wouldn't have expected this to be the episode I'd enjoy most.
3. The delicious onion soup Matt made last night! Oh my goodness. It's SO GOOD. I'm glad I get to eat some for lunch today!
4. The quilt my mom had made for me when I turned 21. It's so soft and wonderful. I love it! And her!
5. Finding out I still have 7 days of vacation time left! I'm going to use 4 days to go to New Orleans with my mom in February and I'll probably use the other 3 to go to Las Vegas this spring or summer. Or to Florida.

1. Matt helping me feel better last night and not letting me totally break down.
2. More snow! I hope it's a nice night at work again, although yesterday was a little on the boring side.
3. Hunger Games and Catching Fire. Really good books. I don't want them to be a movie, though.
4. My owl pillow from my sister.
5. Chocolate. I could REALLY use some right now.

The wind sounds so cold outside. I don't want to go out there! And it's early and I couldn't sleep because I close maybe 8 times a month... my body can't adjust to this craziness.

Sorry for the complaining. It'll pass.

1. I'm happy my friends get the day off! It's too cold for anyone to go outside, so at least I know they're safe and warm.
2. Catching Fire. It's the sequel to Hunger Games. SO GOOD! I read half of it last night. It was hard to put down, but I did at 11 and went to bed... but didn't fall asleep until after 12, woke up at 2, woke up at 5, fell asleep as my alarm went off at 6. UGH.
3. Crazy, but fun dreams last night!
4. Taking a picture every day! I will post them to Across MO tonight when I get home from work.
5. My 2 days off were wonderful!

1 Goal Down!

My goals for 2010:
1. Go to Paris.
2. Lose 20 lbs.
3. Finish a script.
4. Decide what career I want to try.
5. Find a home where I'll stay for a few years. Maybe even buy a house!
6. Take a picture every day.
7. Start an Etsy store or some other way to sell my crochet.
8. Go to Las Vegas.
9. Start a tradition with Dexter.
10. Take a dance class or audition for a play/musical.

So, I'm very proud of myself! I started an Etsy store last night! Check it out: http://www.etsy.com/shop/Urhairispretty I made the banner in Powerpoint... so that was a cool accomplishment too! Maybe I'll make another one sometime! I've already had views on some of my items, so that's awesome! I plan to list more, but I'd like to make a sale first. I hope this actually works! I'm very excited!

Here are m 5 things of the day!
1. Etsy store.
2. Cassie wanting to do another contest! I thought I was the only one. I think it might just end up being Cassie vs. Brianna, which might be really good or really bad. :)
3. Matt's making biscuits and gravy.
4. I went to the mall by myself yesterday! I bought a skirt, two shirts, a dress, and two pairs of shoes. Here's my favorite! I'm in love!

5. Two days off in a row! WHAT? WHAT? Love it.

I want to post more pictures, but I'm so tired!
1. Matt. I really like him.
2. Hunger Games.... GO READ IT! It's a very disturbing concept, but it's an excellent book. I want to write the author a fan letter.
3. Matt took down the tree, so that's one less thing to worry about packing up! DONE! :)
4. Sorting through things. Finding stuff to keep and give away. Memories!
5. Jan 16th weekend. It's going to rock!

1. Snow! It's so pretty and it gave me a really restful day a work!
2. French pressed coffee... it's really good!
3. Moving. We got our utility bill... yikes. I'm thankful to be able to pay it and that it won't be so bad at the new place.
4. SIMS 3!!! YAY!
5. Penguins.

It's so beautiful outside! It snowed all night, and is still snowing! I don't want to go to work, but I can appreciate the beauty anyway. Even if it's really cold! I have warm, pink boot slipper things from Santa!
I just need something to wake me up.

1. The snow. It's REALLY pretty!

2. I finished my cross-stitch! Well, the first one! I just have to figure out how to hang it.

3. Matt's a real GameStop employee now! He's not just seasonal!

4. We put the deposit on the apartment and our landlord is SO NICE! Our deposit will work as part of our first month's rent and we can start moving in next week!

5. Tuesday is just around the corner! I get to see my BFFF!

Man, I'm sleepy. I woke up at 5am and couldn't go back to sleep! Plus, my day off went way to fast yesterday. Where did it go? I think most of it was spent with me sleeping... the other with me cross-stitching!

1. I love my new craft (cross-stitching)! It's really fun and looks so homey! I will not abandon crochet, though!
2. Dinner with Chelsea, Alicia, Emily, Dana, Matt, Dan, Gayle, Sabriana, Phil, Ashley, another girl and guy I didn't know... I'm totally forgetting people. We ate at HuHot. It was so much fun and so good! Even after a really long wait because they were PACKED!
3. Taking pictures. I'm so excited about my picture a day for a decade! Wow... I hope I stick with it!
4. Aaron's text this morning. In Up In The Air they break into his high school and Aaron thought of me... and I totally thought of him!
5. Hopefully only 2 more days of stressed out, super busy work days.

Here's yesterday's picture:
