I'm back!!!!

Okay the weird chinese comments on my post must stop. LOL. American, conservative, female, straight, and very religious. Leave me alOOOOoooooone! I will not use the word "naughty" in a blog title again. Yeesh.

On another note I am going to attempt to behave and actually blog. Most days I just cant be bothered to look at a computer for another second when I get home. But I will try.

A lot has happend since I posted last. Living with my brother again is a wonderful experience. Having my niece, Alicia, back in my life is fabulous. I missed her so much. Now I get to see her at least a couple times a week. Blessed.

Went to Washington DC last month. It rocked my flipping socks off. And made me hurt like no other. I am so out of shape it is frightening. So it gave me inspiration to lose a whole lot of weight. So that I can still do fun things like that.

Capital ME!~

I'ma naughty blogger

I've just been too caught up to blog lately. Bad me.

Going to Wicked at the Gammage down in the valley tomorrow. It's going to wrock hard core. Review on that upcoming as well.

My KimmyPi-- the bestest friend ever is home!!! Happiness! She had a great time in England, brought back some amazing photos, and cute stuff. She spoiled me rotten. *squeezes* I have a paddington bear, from paddington station... and he's dressed in a kilt! Its so cute I could just die!!! I have all my new british stuff situated on my desk at work. Cool!

These photos were taken with my cell phone so ignore the less than stellar quality.

My Paddington bear in his kilt. SO CUTE! I think I shall call him Gerard... after my favorite scotty. Mrrowr!

My adorable gargoyle from Westminister Abby. I've named him Clem. If you are a Buffy fan you will understand why.

A few of my other awesome things. A magnet from The Globe, yes the Shakespeare Globe, that quotes Twelfth Night, see my quote! And a magnet from Wicked. Also an adorable little double decker bus key chain. Not pictured is my pretty new necklace, also from the Globe.

Honestly it couldnt be more awesome unless I had gone myself. My best friend knows me SO well. LOL.

~take on me~

My niece says she wishes I were her mother. Because I would keep my promises to her and that she means more to me than drugs or alcohol. Can you see what her mother has done to her?!? It just breaks my heart. I wish she were mine too.

*squee!*

The new Star Trek movie -- seen in twice already.

Its Vulcan Spocktacular!

Love is all the I can give to you

My most favored recent creation--

Using A Bad Case of Stripes by David Shannon as inspiration. Didn't just turn out darling?!?

And this is the book that inspired it!

beat the rhythm with their bones

Well it has been busy of late. Graduations, recitals, vacations, doctor appointments, and hyper nieces. :)
Last week I went to my nieces graduation from Jr. High and the night before I went to Alicia's gymnastics recital. Fun! She's so agile!

Alicia is the one doing the back bend with the leg in the air. So cute!

Isn't she beautiful?!?

Alicia right after she got her promotion certificate. She is in the top ten percent of her class so she got a special medal. Smart smart girl.
