when i am old and have a balding husband, i hope he gets this very funny tattoo on his head.
lots of fun things have happened in my life since the last time i posted. too bad i don't feel like recounting all of them, so you'll have to deal.
the first and foremost fun thing in my life is the bowl of chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream that i am eating right now.
another fun thing was eric's return to me from texas. and his 21st birthday on sunday. i baked a cake and gave him presents. we are going out on friday night for the ultimate 21st birthday jubilee.
last night, eric and i played monopoly. it was lots of fun. (he cheated.) and, we orded pizza; the dumb west lib domino's gave us double what we ordered.
this jolly summer is over halfway through. hmm. i can't wait to go back to class and learn, rather than be bored at work all day. but, i want to go to the beach first.

ERIC IS FINALLY COMING HOME TONIGHT!!!! YAY! i love when eric comes home, and i am excited. also, he's bringing me a present of a cow mask.
my wonderful mother took me shopping on saturday, and i got two new superbly cute outfits. and some shoes. and a purse. 25 snaps for all of that.
this computer is making weird noises. i hope it explodes; that would be funny. another thing i hope is that i don't get hit with anything when it happens. nor do i want my eyebrows singed.
okay, i have to go do a tour de bethany now. great!

there is a kiddie dance occurring about 35 feet from my bedroom windows right at this very moment. yay! lots of fun music, kids tromping around drinking soda and yelling/singing--no dancing yet, of course. it's fun...but i never knew soccer camps had dances...with squirt guns.
so we FINALLY got our cool bethany polo shirts in for work this week. lovely. apparently, i have a thing for jobs that require dark green polos, eh? i don't care; i like them. i have a white one now too. contrasting that good news, i have to work on friday evening. weird.
thing i learned today: there used to be carnivorous kangaroos hopping all about the great outback. and they had fangs. to me, this is a very funny concept, and i very much wish they were still around.
things occurring relatively soon: eric's homecoming, last quarter moon, eric's birthday, new moon, my parents' anniversary.
we took an entire cherry pie from the cafe yesterday during lunch. lots of soccer kiddies stared...they only wanted ice cream and cookies though, so they didn't care.
i watched "oceans twelve" this evening. it was good. maybe i'll watch the prequel sometime.
i should do laundry soon. there are is an abundance of dirty laundry in my bedroom.
i love facebook. eric is pooping.

this weekend is boooring. i've read two entire books since friday. BIG books. i like to read, but this is getting absurd. i've also watched two dvd's. and looked at the entire internet. twice.
i am eating a peaches & berries special k bar, and it is YUMMY! try one.
i have some super cool berenstain bears tattoos. i'll probably be applying one to my face or something soon.
a lot of birds are chirping around in the trees outside. some of them are eating berries from a tree right next to my window. i think i hear a jungle bird out there too.

eric and i went to kennywood last night. it was SUPER fun! did you know that if you go after 5, it's half price to get in? well, we did that, and yay! none of the lines were too very long, so we got to ride everything that we wanted to. plus, at 9:30, they had FIREWORKS!! considering my fireworks fetish, i had a lovely evening.
a not so lovely thing: i slept for 3.5 hours last night. really. we didn't get to bed until 1 last night, then i got to get up at 4:30 and take eric to the airport. a very sleepy me came straight home from pittsburgh and slept until 1:30.
"pirates of the carribean ii" comes out on july 7th! i'm happy about that. i like pirates. also, i like the first movie. and i like johnny depp. and i like keira knightley.
i am going home to visit his royal highness the fuzz edward soon. like, whenever i quit messing around on the internet and pack some clothes for 2 days.
i got a haircut yesterday. she cut it WAY shorter than i asked, but i like it a lot, so yay! it's very short, very cute.
i got to eat dippin' dots with eric yesterday at kennywood. miniscule ice cream balls are always a good choice. we had the cookie dough flavour, and it was yummy. the end.
