Quit it

No seriously, quit it. this is what happens when you wake up earlier than your fiance and your dog I guess...

Aren't they adorable?

2-5

It's been a while since I've made a list I realized so here's 25 interesting things about me (probably not so interesting, but things... anyway):

1. Though I am 25, Lucky Charms is still my fave cereal

2. When I eat these Lucky Charms I have to eat them a very specific way, grainy pieces first, then all the marshmallows

3. I love to bake, don't necessarily love to cook

4. I am kind of obsessed with purses...

5. I love bridal mags (even when I'm not getting married)

6. A nice hot bath and a book is great therapy to me

7. So is getting my nails done

8. I LOVE bread, it is probably my favorite thing ever

9. I also love cheese and seriously, the bluer the better

10. I don't think I deserve my fiance, but I'm glad he's willing to settle :)

11. I'm glad that over the years I've gotten over my fear of having to be nice to people or needing people to like me, it's so much easier this way

12. I like living is Salt Lake because there's so many restaurants

13. Because I love to eat :)

14. I miss Ogden though because it contains all my friends...

15. I hate to drive

16. I love to be driven around

17. I'm hideously competitive, I compete with everyone, even when they don't know it

18. I love animals more than pretty much all people

19. My biggest goal is to finish school, and my biggest issue with myself is that I haven't and that I wasted so much time

20. I love airports

21. I also love to travel

22. Unfortunately, football is kind of becoming interesting to me

23. I can't stay awake when I watch a movie at home

24. I feel really lucky to have what I have

25. I am boring...

remember that one time I got engaged...

so this wedding planning business is a tad overwhelming! I had a little cry the other night after meeting with a lady at a reception place but after that we went to another place that was fabulous and went ahead and booked that so my wedding reception will be at the Market Street in Cottonwood on September 24th and I'm super excited about it. Because A) I love the room that we are having it in, it's gorg! B) they have delish food. Delish. oh and C) they take care of most of the stuff so I don't have to worry about finding linens and napkins and silly things like that. So I'm very excited and looking forward to it...

Now something much less exciting. You guys, I have to run a half marathon in 50-something days. Yeah, about that, I have like no energy to do anything. My running has sucked lately, mainly because I hate treadmills these days, they're boring, it's usually getting dark when I get home so that means it's too cold and too dark for me to run outside. What do I do?!? I'm really glad that daylight savings is in a couple of weeks because then I will be a running machine (hopefully) and will get where I need to be in a month but that's definitely easier said than done.

My dear old dad is getting hitched next week. Kind of exciting, kind of weird... I'm glad that he found someone that makes him happy and she's super nice but it's real fast. I guess when you know, you know though... Anyway, I have to wear a fancy dress and some heels so if I see you next week please don't judge the fact that I'll probably be hobbling around after having to wear tall shoes for 6 hours. Oy! I could have worn flats, I actually bought flats but my dress shows my legs and since my legs are less than attractive I chose to go with the heels so that the legs looked better, so turns out it's my own fault... shoot.

Obsessed!

So again, it has been a long time, the internet wasn't working again so I stole my dad's laptop. (I guess technically I bought it because I had to give him some of my tax return, he just actually hadn't given it to me yet). So I figure I should entertain you with a list:

I'm currently obsessed with a few things, they are as follows-

The summer salad with grilled chicken at Target. You guys, this salad is delish! It has like a spinachy mix of salad and strawberries and blueberries, it also has goat cheese and this amazing honey mustardy/poppyseed dressing. So good! They have them over in the deli section of the target and I've had one pretty much every day this week.

Baseball (raglan) tees. You know, the shirts that are usually white and they have different colored sleeves and collar? OMG I love them. I recently purchased 4 of them (shut up, they were all on clearance at Hollister). I just think that they're so stinkin' cute and I think that they fit me in a cute way... They are like casual but I can still look like I tried... I guess...

The Valentine's Day soundtrack. It's really good! It's a lot of older love songs redone to be more up to date. Really very enjoyable...

Oh yeah, I'm also obsessed with this PRETTY RING ON MY LEFT HAND!!! Ha! That's right, it happened! I got engaged just yesterday afternoon. Amazing right? My dear sweet boyfriend (who I don't deserve) bought me a Build A Bear and put the ring in the stuffed heart that the bear was holding and when you press the bears hand it says "I love you, Happy Valentine's Day, and will you marry me?" To which I said, "are you serious" because I didn't know that the ring was in the heart. It was exciting and strange, something I didn't know would ever happen. But I'm very excited and can't wait to settle down with Greg for the long haul... Excuse me while I gush for a minute (Celina, avert your eyes) but he is pretty much amazing and more than I could have ever hoped for. He's sweet and nice and considerate and he's fun and silly and he makes me smile. I love being around him and I'm pretty sure he loves being around me... I'm really lucky guys and I couldn't ask for anything more. Yay for weddings and getting engaged!

Blah...

Hey y'all. I have a been a sucktastic blogger lately, probably because life is pretty blah. I had a great Christmas and New Year's and now that all the fun is over I am ready for spring and sunshine! I think that I suffer from the seasonal affective disorder, you know, the one where you get gloomy because you never see the sun? that's me!
So anyway, let's talk resolutions.
I've decided that this year I have two main resolutions. 1. To lose weight, I lost most of it last year and I only have a bit left but it's been rather hard lately so I need to get that in check. 2. To get out of debt. It's not terrible and I'm not drowning in bills but I would feel a lot better and less stressed if I didn't have those kinds of things to worry about. Oh and I guess I could add a third one on there and that would be to pass math 1050. That would give me my associates degree (yay!).
Oh! Greg and I got a Wii! So exciting! We were at the Costco the other night and we were only there for dogfood (for the Phyllis) and I said (jokingly) 'we should get a wii' oh and we did. It's pretty fun, we mostly got it so that we can download olde nintendo games onto it. Good times.
Speaking of Phyllis, she is good. She's getting big and she really likes to chew on your feet when you are walking but she's super cute so I forgive her. She sleeps with us and makes little snores and likes to lay across you whilst you sleep, it's cute but she did it the other night and when I woke up I thought I was going to die because I'd had a seven pound weight on my back all night. Not the best sleep I've ever had... Boogie is pretty cool with her, she chases her around and when Boogie is done with her she climbs up to her new favorite perch on top of the fridge where Phyllis can't get heror even see her.
Did I mention that my Dad is getting married? Oh yeah, he is. March 5th.
