eat em up tigers, eat em up!

Crossin’ another one off the good ole list.  #55, went to my first tigers game!  It was just as fun (and expensive) as I imagined it’d be.  Our seats were pretty far up, but every seat at comerica park is a good seat.   I love that stadium, it has such an awesome view of Detroit.  It was the perfect day for a baseball game too, sunny and 80 degrees all day, and it stayed warm all night!  I’m not the biggest baseball fan, but apparently it was a really good game.  There was a grand slam (that’s 3 home runs in a row…right?), and they won. yeeeehaw!  I spent a lot of money there…but I expected to so it’s all good.  I got myself a 10 dollar ‘daquri’ that tasted like a slurpee in a souvenier cup.  I’m gonna use it as a change jar.  and then I got a $8.50 cheeseburger and a $4 soft pretzel and a $8 beer.  All in all it was a good experience, and I hope to go to at LEAST a few more games this summer!

me and melissa in front of the tiger.

great view of detroit….love all the old buildings.

in other (sad) news, my fish have a disease or something, they are dropping dead like flies!  I’ve netted out 8 fish corpses today….and the few i have left look like they probably wont make it through the night.  poor fishies 😦

diamond in the rough

I’ve been doing a lot of self reflecting lately.  I’ve been very “in my head” for a few days…i kinda like when i get like this because it makes me feel deep and interesting. But it’s also annoying because my brain needs a break.

what it comes down to is, i suck at communication, and i’m too guarded.

but then a friend said something to make me feel a little better about myself, heres how it went down:

her (9:09:05 PM): remember when i first started to hang out, i thought you hated me bc you never talked to me lol

me (9:09:22 PM): lol yeh it takes me a long time to let people in

me (9:09:27 PM): is that a good thing or bad? i dunno!

her (9:09:42 PM): its both!! it makes you you

and then she went on to give me some analogy about diamonds and coal.  it was actually quite helpful and made me feel less frustrated with myself.

her (9:10:07 PM): think of it like this

her (9:10:32 PM): you go stright to the diamonds before the coal

her (9:10:48 PM): i go through the coal to get the diamonds

her (9:11:00 PM): wtf am i talking about?

me (9:11:05 PM): lolol

me (9:11:20 PM): coal and diamonds? i dont get it

her (9:11:27 PM): lol diamonds come from coal

me (9:12:17 PM): oh so you mean like, i weed out all the coal and find the diamonds?

her (9:12:24 PM): yes!!!

me (9:12:30 PM): i like it!

me (9:12:36 PM): good analogy

her (9:12:37 PM): you dont even bother with the coal, you keep your hands clean!

so, in conclusion, i guess i’m being a little too hard on myself.

but it wouldn’t hurt to break down some of my walls, right?

i’ll try.

in other news, i finally did something to my ‘who?’ page: https://yooshername.wordpress.com/about/

great weekend, great friends, good laughs, happy times. love my life.

today was a very unhealthy eating day. it’s sunday though, so it’s ok…right? chicken wings, chicken nuggets and a mcflurry made up the diet of the day.  one of these things (or perhaps the combination of all 3) is brawling with my stomach now, though.  i feel as tho i might yak!

got my plane ticket to north carolina.  I’ll be there for a long weekend at the end of february…i guess it’ll be warm there by then! woop! excited. i miss my mumma, and nellers.

anal eaze

blogging is difficult when I’d much rather go to sleep than blog.

tomorrow I’m babysitting Tasha’s cousins.  I kinda dont wanna do it, but I really want the extra $$.  I wanna go snowboarding this weekend and snowboarding ain’t cheap!

I just signed up to have a sex toy party.  I’m hoping I can recruit some people to come to it so it’s not just me, emily, and ashley….that would be awkward….

Today I worked, then went to the gym, then came home and ate dinner, then showered, then did dishes and now i’m watching american idol. Not the most interesting day, and not much interesting stuff to talk about.  I did teach tasha how to kick a ball today. woop! oh, and I almost have her trained to ‘moo’ when i say “what does a cow say?”  baby tricks are the best.

more “resolutions”

I’m not the biggest fan of the word ‘resolution’.  Instead, i’m going to make a small list of goals that I hope to accomplish by the end of 2010.  I’ll check back every few months and update ya’ll on my progress.  Ok, here it goes:

1) blog every day

2) go to the gym AT LEAST 3 days a week (this is starting next week because I have REALLY slacked this week)

3) get at least 3 of my credit cards paid off (at least one with a high balance)

4) SOMEHOW, get back to school

5) stick to my $95/week spending limit

6) fall in love

My new years eve was pretty decent.  I’m gonna go ahead and say it wasn’t as fun as last year because some important people were missing (MOM…AUSTYNN…)  But I still enjoyed myself.  We did the same dang thang we do every year, got drunk at the drapers, and sang ‘happy birthday’ to ryan.   I was among one of the last people still awake at 4am.  All in all, a good time.

Ok, keeping this post short.  I’m meeting Kathy and Robbie for lunch in an hour (mmmm bdubs!) and then the crew is goin to shoguns for ryans birthday dinner! woot! (but bad for my wallet 😦 )  I’m sure some drinks will be had afterword.  Tis the season to get drunk!
