blerg...

Sometimes I wonder why I haven't learned yet, not to let other people have control over my emotions. Hell, I can see or hear something upsetting and let it tear at my heartstrings. But one person... they can hold me up or tear me down, and I have no say. How the fuck did I get here, to this very spot?

Only my ladies can help me now:

p.s.

I know I just made an embarrassing emotional rant not more than half an hour ago, but check out Kadanuumuu (aka "big man"). He's a 4 million year old hominid! Newly discovered and published, and also the most complete clavicle and shoulder blade ever found in the human fossil record. Coolness!

new camera madness.

I finally have a new camera that works, just in time to show off the new house!

  

 

 

I love our house so much! Now for some more memories of the last month.

Check out this awesome birthday sundae:

...my little brother and sister are pretty much the cutest!

And then there was Robin's wedding shower! My picture of the bride-to-be was blurry but I have some cute ones of the other girlies:

 Yesterday was pretty awesome too! My parents gave us their BBQ and so Zack came over and we made some yummy burgers. But first, we went to the park, and even saw Rae at work there!

  

Fats is so adorable! I feel like a pretty lucky lady to have two special boys in my life. :)

here comes the bride!

I can't wait until Robin and Josh's wedding! It's going to be awesome. The bridal shower was great and I loved all the fun games!

So, I think we officially have colors for our wedding: dark purple, blue and silver.

Should be pretty!

In other news, I'm totally obsessed with Black Cherry Mocha fraps from Starbucks. Sosogood! <3

insert gangster rap lyric here.

I have realized over the last couple months that 90's gangster rap has a very special place in my heart. Maybe it's the fact that lots of Notorious BIG and Dr. Dre songs and the like have been on the radio a lot lately... Or my inappropriately large intake of MTV as a child. I don't know, but that stuff is golden.

On another note, I have finally settled on a tattoo that I could see myself getting, and am going to do it sometime in the next year and a half! I want to wait til after the wedding I think, just so that my family doesn't flip a total bitch at me, or just my mother.

My idea was inspired by all the cute stuff at El Camino in South Park:

It is pretty much the best place ever! I want a Mexican sugar skull, but one that is cute and girly, definitely smiling, and maybe with a little bow. 

Hooray! It's going to be as adorable as this tattoo:

<3

you shot me down, bang bang.

So, today marked the beginning of "Mafia Monday" for Scott and I. This entails making super tasty Italian food and then watching Sopranos dvds. We're already on Season 3!

We are totally lame and watch way too much TV, but I love it.
