Hooray for iPhone Apps!

So I downloaded this application on my iPhone called epic win ( http://www.rexbox.co.uk/epicwin/ ). Basically it turns a normal to do list into a RPG where you get points for finishing things on your to do list, you get loot and stuff as well as leveling up. Needless to say I think it's pretty much amazing. So one of the things I put on my to do list was to update my blog every week, cause lets face it, it's good to get your thoughts down and out there for random strangers (or no one ;) ) to read.

So I will be moving to Louisiana in exactly 2 and a half weeks, ugh x2! I'm hoping we can make it fun but, that is never a state I really wanted to go to. Going to miss Washington a bit, was just starting to get used to it. The scenery is beautiful here, and Seattle is a wonderful city. Washington was kind enough to give me a lovely parting gift though...SNOW!! <3 I love snow, being a born and bred Minnesotan it made me oh so very happy to have it visit me in WA.
(Me enjoying the snow :D) 



This past Friday my hubby and I went to the BJShea morning show anniversary party in Bellevue at the Parlor ( http://www.kisw.com/pages/5697512.php ). We had a BLAST, the crew was really down to earth and cool. It was all around a good time. We last minute decided neither of us wanted to sober cab and rented a hotel room. It was pretty fancy, I felt pretty grubby going there. It was all "pinky's up" and I'm not really that kind of girl. It was fun to kick it and chill with the hubby and have some fun. Since we don't have much time left here in WA it's good to get out and see some places we haven't been to.
(View from our hotel room)

On a TV show note...my current obsession is The Walking Dead (http://www.amctv.com/originals/The-Walking-Dead/ ). This show is simply...awesome. It's a zombie apocalypse show yes but...it's more character based. Great writing, great action, awesome characters. Such a great show.

So anyways, I will write more next week. Got Thanksgiving and getting ready to move this week so lots of cleaning and packing and not fun stuff! So stay classy all and be safe this holiday weekend.
(Just a small token to show you how much we love our cat scrubbers ;) poor guy haha)

3D, weddings, and jobless rants...yippe!

See I told you, I have THAT personality ha ha. It's been a month since I've updated this blog, I spose I could go the route of saying no job, no friends=no blog posts because of a BORING life! As much as those suck, it's amazing to be here with David and to see him (most) everyday, I wouldn't give it up for the world.

On a more random rant, is anyone else SICK of 3D. Now those of you who know me will probably *roll eyes* at this point BUT I am just done with this craze. Call me an old cranky woman but I just don't see the appeal. If I wanted things to fly up to me or walk up to me or what have you, I'd walk down the street in REAL LIFE. Movies are supposed to be an escape from reality, why would I want them IN my reality?
The fact that they are re-releasing movies (Star Wars all 6 of them in 2012) is just one reason I hate it. Great, lets re-release a movie we all have seen before just to cash in on the 3D craze when we could be attempting to make new and creative movie ideas. I spose that's Hollywood, they are all about the Benjamin's.
I just hope that most people will play the Christopher Nolan card (His 3rd Batman movie will most likely not be released in 3d thank jebus) and just not follow this trend. We have seen what it does to movies...just tons of crap movies are coming out now. I for one loved Inception and guess what, IT WASN'T IN 3D!!!

Sorry...I'm done on that rant. So I'm still looking for a job, I've applied at over 30 places and no one is hiring. You would think with the holiday season on it's way I would have more luck, but apparently not. It's too bad the Tacoma Mall is a good 30-40 minutes away otherwise I would apply away, I just see that as being a waste of gas however.

Also have been trying to help in the planning of my lovely sisters wedding. I'm happy to help, but sometimes I have horrible flashbacks to earlier this year and late last year *shudders*. Weddings are amazing and a I loved the way ours turned out. I have to say, the planning of a wedding however, my god...it's crazy. As a bride there is SO much involved, I didn't even realize what I was getting myself into. By the wedding day I was bundle of stressful nerves, I'm surprised I kept the friends and family I have!! I only hope for the best for my sister and hope to TRY to help from miles and miles away.

Anyway, I spose that's it for now, I don't think anyone reads this. If you do, kudos to you sir and or madam for enduring my ramblings. Hope to write again SOONER.

On an end note...this video is awesome Funny Weatherman Blooper

Stay Classy all,

Well Hello...

I figured I would try my hand at this blogging tomfoolery. Chances are this will end up being the most pointless, boring, mundane and random blog you will read in your life. Consider yourself honored I spose.

A little about me (if you care...if not please hit the X button on your browser...or for mac users, apple Q!)
I am a (almost) 24 year old newly married woman. I have been happily married for a whopping 2 and a half months and am still waiting for the supposed crappiness of it. I live in Washington (State..not DC, and NO I do not live in Seattle...) where I reside as a currently unemployed army housewife.


I used to edit videos quite a bit but sort of fell out of the hobby after going to college for it. I'm hoping to pick it back up soon and will post on here if I do.



I am a hockey fan...more so an Minnesota Wild fan, I don't get to keep up with it as much as I used to but I will always bleed iron range red :)




I am what they call a "gamerchick", I don't pretend to be leet or pro. I am a gamer yes, but that doesn't mean I am good at it. I game because I enjoy it and am proud to advertise the fact that I play games on the very easy level (you should try it sometime, it will boost your self esteem I promise ;) ). My favorite series are Zelda and Mario. Fallout 3 is one of my favorite games of all time and I can NOT wait for New Vegas *nerdgasm*.


 I am a self-proclaimed "geek", as my husband says not a nerd a geek because I am into computers and not all things nerdy...psh whatev. I enjoy dinking around on my Macbook Pro (apple fan for life...I am one of "those" people).






I am a proud aunt to one of the most amazing little girls in the world. I never figured I could love someone else's kid SO much but...it happened!













My family and friends mean the world to me, I am extremely family oriented and would do ANYTHING for them.







I spose this has turned into more of a bio...and I'm assuming there is a bio page, so sorry for that but I'm sure you will live :) I'm pretty sure this blog will turn into me rambling when I'm bored or needing to vent something. Either that or I will completely abandon it after...one post, yes, I have that personality type. But either way it is a way to keep up with the fam and to write I spose. I hope you all enjoy. Keep it classy
