Nightmare on MY STREET

Ever notice how it's difficult to go to bed after seeing something scary? Maybe I'm just a weirdo that allows myself to be scared of silly little things... but here I am... after watching a scary movie... and I can't go to sleep... I don't want to shut out all my lights...! lol I'm ridiculous about stuff like this. Here I am nearly 27; you'd think I'd learn my lesson by now not to watch things like this after dark... or even during the day if they'll have staying power in my mind... but I continue to put myself through the thrill of being scared and then losing sleep over it!

It's so fun to feel like a silly 13 year old girl on summer vacation! lol

It doesn't help that my cat Mozart thinks she's seeing a bunch of things THAT AREN'T EVEN THERE!!! (or at least, they are not visible to me)

Hopefully I get more than 3 collective hours of sleep tonight... I'd really like to be awake enough to enjoy playing some Wii Rock Band with Daughn and Damian tomorrow night!

Productive day & Update

Well, I have had a pretty productive day... :) I got the layers of cake baked for Conner's personal one for his 1st birthday party on Saturday (we're leaving tomorrow around 1:30)... I also got all the icing and colors made yesterday... I've gotten all my laundry done... I have very little left to do to be totally ready for everything... I just need to pack my overnight bag and do a clean of the litter box before I leave Mozart for the weekend... We'll be back Saturday evening... but still... I don't want to come back to a kickin' room!

Tomorrow after we get to my brother's house, I'll get everything ready to assemble Conner's cake. The icing has to come to room temp. and it has to go in the fridge a few times in between icing stages so crumbs won't be on the surface... then I'll decorate it with the colors (lime green and bright blue) and then put it in the fridge before Saturday (the party is from 10:30am-1pm).

Tonight I have to go get all the weights for the canopies that my brother is borrowing from my friend Daughn... and of course I'll visit with them a bit. Moving them went really fast this time... mostly because everything was pretty much boxed ahead of time... We started around 9:30am and had everything moved to the new house by 4pm. And we stopped several times for water breaks and lunch... it was REALLY hot that day... in fact Damian's sister got heat exhaustion or something!

Anyhow, I'm off to finish last bits of things and all and get some relaxation in...! I'll update after we return.

So...

I'm a 'tard and I forgot my camera yesterday for the rodeo fun. Fortunately Daughn and Damian brought theirs... so, once I get pics from her transported on my handy-dandy flash drive and to my computer, then I shall post up some pictures from the day. Truthfully we only took a couple pictures... but there are some fun ones of Dustin (their 2 year old... well, 3 in about a month) riding various carnival rides that are quite entertaining... and we did get a few of Craig Morgan performing. He put on a REALLY good show... and then we went and walked around a bit more on the grounds.

After the rodeo we headed out (it took us awhile to get outta that place... JEEZ San Antonio... you have this thing every year and have for 59 years! You think you'd have a handle on the parking situation by now!) and when we got back to the house, Daughn and Damian had asked if I wanted to go grab a bite and see Juno. Of course I said yes! We went to TX Roadhouse.... I had already decided I was going to count yesterday as a "holiday" on my WW Points... because I knew there was little chance I'd find anything to eat out at the rodeo that wasn't bad... although, I did quite well... my splurge was a few bites of funnel cake. Anyhow, I got that country fried chicken at TX Roadhouse... and JEEZ... I think I only ate like 3 or 4 bites because I got SO FULL on bread and salad before my meal came! I sent all my leftovers home with D&D because I knew there was NO WAY I could eat those leftovers once I was back on today anyway... ;) I've done very well... I've almost lost 10 pounds in about a month.... and the fact that I could hardly eat more than a salad and some bread at one sitting was proof to me that I have truly begun making a life style change. I've totally changed the amount of food I need to feel full for a meal because I eat smaller meals and more often throughout the day rather than putting a pile of food in my stomach at one time.

Anyhow, Juno was such a good movie! I was really happy I got to see it while it's still in theaters... sometimes I keep saying I'm going to see something and never actually make time to do so... and then I miss it and have to wait for the DVD. Speaking of DVDs... Across the Universe came out on Tuesday (Feb 5) and I need to go buy it today... perhaps I'll swing by Circuit City after I run into Petsmart... I need to get more cat food... and I want to try some of that "Boundary" spray to keep Mozart (my cat) from scratching on the furniture. I really think she's been doing so more here at my parents' because their cat is also marking the furniture. It's an outright war between the 2 of them of marking their areas back and forth! lol

Anyhow, this is all the update I have in me for now... come back again and perhaps I'll have something else for you...
