randomness from my world

As I start typing, I have no idea what will come forth here, which is an interesting turn of a phrase seeing as how one patient near me just puked. yea.

I'm looking for a job all over, not madly, but I'm ready to move on. Trying to focus on the ol' thesis, but somedays you have to take a break, you know. Looked at jobs with the State of Kasas today. Don't think so. Random things that I think to look up, really.

Boss is on the phone, guess I should actually do work today...

a bit bummed

My dear friend, Shari, from CO was supposed to visit this coming weekend, but plans change. Now it will be Dec until I get to see her. woa is me. Life goes on and I'll get more library time this way and when she's here, I'll be finished with the thesis, and we can celebrate our birthdays together, blah, blah, blah. Anyway, I ramble and it's time for a pop. Started reading a book the Friar loaned me last night which is good, and thought provoking in an odd way. It's about a woman who loves living in her small town and OPENS A CAFE. Lot to think about. Enjoying it though. Bad to read something for fun in the midst of study crunch time, I'm too easily distracted. Off for some hot tea to warm the bones and pop to get them moving!

Pet Peeves

Inspired by a response on another blog...

EVERYONE should wear a seatbelt. ALL THE TIME while riding in a vehicle. More people die from NOT wearing their seatbelts than those who do not. Unfortunately it's not always a quick and painless way to meet the Lord, either. But a horrible and terrifying experience for everyone. Where's the good in that I ask?

Also a pet peeve of mine -- people who park in the handicapped space without proper markings (license or sticker or tag or something).

Oh, yea, the TP should come over the top and you should always squeeze from the bottom of the tube of toothpaste, just like the directions say.

Thesis update

I met with my advisor this week and she thinks that I can still meet the deadline of Thanksgiving. YEA! YIKES! and OHMYGOSH! Guess where I'm going tonight -- the school to work on the paper, surprise.

Wedding Reception Fun

It became the rule that everyone who sat at our table had to pose with the flowers. I have more that are still on the roll in my camera and will add them when they're finished. Enjoy the fun! Clint, Miss Kara (can you believe that she's a freshman in high school?) and Mom (can you see where I get it from?)

The latest wedding

I went to Colorado last weekend for my cousin Mike's wedding. It was so awesome and I'm so happy for him. Here are a few shots for you to enjoy.

The first shot is of my mom wearing the new pair of sexy shoes that I got and wore to the wedding. They are super fun and have about a 2.5 inch heal. Crazy!

The next one is Aunt Loly and me and I love my Aunt Loly! She is in her 80's and a hoot! It's her grandson, Mike, who got married. Isn't she pretty in pink.

Speak of the devil, the next photo is Mr. Groom himself, Mike. I didn't get a good shot of Kristy, bummer.

The final shot is my dear friend, the Friar, who was willing to hang with my family and carry my purse. (It's a good thing it matched his shoes!)

New job

I have just applied to be a hotdogger for Oscar Meyer. How freakin' cool is it to think that I might be able to drive the Wienermobile across the country! I'll keep you posted.
