Told my boss about the whole CC debacle today to see what she thought. She's going to bring it up to Joe the building manager to see what he thinks. She def thinks it's mighty shady.

What's not mighty shady is my love for High School Musical 2! I'm not sure why we enjoyed it so much. Maybe it was Zac's "Bet on it" sequence, or Sharpays fabulousness. Or wait maybe the fact that we rewinded the baseball scene twice. You know I have no shame about it either. How often do you watch something just for the pure cheese of it, something you don't have to analyse (even though we totally did) and just have fun with. Drink of choice was boxed Sangria by Franzia. Yum.

Saturday I lounged, did laundry, washed and cleaned my car top to bottom, made chili, went to Best Buy for my much needed memory card and also bought the new Rooney album which I love. I also watered the flowers cleaned the pool and organized some of my junk. The most exciting part of my day though was finally breaking into medium on Guitar Hero. I finally see how John can sit there all day and just keep playing. I played for four hours! FOURR HOURS. Now that I can save my game I have become that more competitive. Last night I made it till the end and I ONLY have to finish Freebird which I was able to make it 86% the way through before failing. I think I am going to try it on practice mode later. Maybe Friday because I serioulsy can not get in GH time during the week.

Don't know if I mentioned this last week but I totally sprained my right ankle last Wednesday night pre CC freak out. I am proud to say that I was not drunk this time (per last summers LEFT ankle fracture) but I was actually quite the opposite. I was kicking some serious booty in my aerobics class. Five classes in with this lady and I am getting good with all the little sequences. I finally think I got it all down and I go to make my little over the top do hickey and down I go. My right foot - half on the ground half on the step kind of gets mashed over and snap. Same feeling as last summer but less fuzzy. I'm brave and I usually try to ingore pain so I get up and keep truckin. Later that night I have a particular case of cankles on that one ankle - so yeah not fun. I'm skipping gym tonight but I'll try tomorrow night.

PS thanksssss L Brown for the new Rilo Kiley album!
Wooo!

Who knew iTunes had a radio!
I really had no idea until today!
Got to say I really love it.

Alt X Radio is my fav.
Also on my listening roster these days are Lauren's Podcasts! Very cool! Everyone knows she has an awesome music tastes and now she's taking it to the airwaves. Todays Flashback Podcast was my favorite!! Kudos LB. Anyone wants to hear the awesomeness leave me a message and I'll pass them on to you.

Booked half of the cruise today. I feel like a weight has lifted! Pat, Robyn and I booked a room together which made it cheaper = more awesomeee. Should be really fun as long as those crazy kids don't call the wedding off (please guys don't). I kid i kid.

Now all I need to do is save some money and look fabulous in my dress and it's all good.

Last Friday Pat and I went to a Grateful Dead tribute show @ Harper's Ferry. Serioulsy I knew ONE GD song and just kind of bounced around. At the end they played a cover of Hey Jude which was awesome and the only song I could sing along to (Pat assured me they don't do covers of their popular songs). We got sufficiently drunk which was fun and awesome because Pat was totally dancing his face off. Lots of funny people dressed in tie dye which is always cool.

Was superrrr hung over Saturday morning and in a whim bought PlayStation 2 ONLY so I could finally join the Guitar Hero club. I bought a used Playstation 2 and it's soooo much smaller than the one I used to have before someone kept it thinking it was theirs Aurora ahem. Played it for like 2 hours until my headache came back and then lounged. I'll be a Guitar Hero before long!!

It's good to know that I give off the right impression. Yesterday we were talking about a clients Spring 2008 line and that they really want to go into the fashion direction rather than an outdoor thing. So my boss was like I'm going to put you in charge of the fashion/music angle for them because that's what I see you being really good at. Me really!? Fashion. I guess I do have an eye for fashion. Not that you would tell it from how I DRESS ha but I sure do have a love for it. So yeah hopefully if I do good with this client they'll be my own someday.

I am completely crazy in love with New Found Glory's cover of "Iris" by the Goo Goo Dolls for their From the Screen to Your Stereo Part II. Someone sings the chorus with Jordan but I can't put my finger on who it is. Not an NFG member.
I want to put it on my ipod badly but it's not on iTunes. While I was listening @ New Found Glory's Myspace I also ran across another song I have never heard called Situations. Another great song, but not a cover just a B-Side that was thrown off Catalyst I believe (or I'd like to believe) I can't listen to that monstrousity that came from Coming Home. I think it may have gone up the list as my favorite NFG song.

Enough of my rambling.
