Yum! I'm eating a big plate of Crow!

Ok ok.......I admit it. I said that I couldn't stand the Sookie Stackhouse novels. I read the first one and was NOT impressed. I still stand by that comment. However, I have a lot of down time at work and someone had the second book so I read it. I don't know what happened but all of the sudden, it wasn't too terrible. I read it in 2 days. I'm now on the 3rd one and I'm almost finished. Before I go on my vacation (which starts Wednesday at 9:30am!) I need to go get book 4 because I only have about 20 more pages of Club Dead. 

For all you Sookie Stackhouse lovers out there, is the True Blood show any good?

I don't have HBO so I hate to go buy the whole first season and it blow.

Memorial Day here....it's raining non stop. The family BBQ got postponed (to a day I'll be out of town) and I worked for 8 hours. FUN TIMES! BUT for me it always means Summer is here!

I might be the silliest girl on the planet.

I knew this was going to be an emotional day. I knew it! 

I'm sitting, watching American Idol (who isn't?!?) SPOILER ALERT if you haven't watched yet then STOP reading!

Kris wins right and if you kept watching after his song you saw his wife come up and hug him. He started crying and was holding her so tight. In that instant, I literally started sobbing. I'm still crying even. I don't know what is going on with me!?!?!  Seeing them embrace like that seriously set me off on an emotional break down. I am not a crier. 

I literally have one week till I'm going out of town. This time next week I'll be there!!!! Then it becomes the waiting game, holding my phone in hand where ever I go, waiting for the call to tell me I need to go pick up. Seriously. I'm so ready for him to get here! Words can't even describe it. I don't know what's going to happen but I'm getting more and more excited to see him everyday. I hope he's feeling the same way I am. I really do. 

Tomorrow, it's back to the grindstone! I get to go in late tomorrow at 11am instead of my usual 4:30 am! Sweeeeeet!
