Tooth Fairy's Treasure Hunt

Yes...the movie is on now! HA! (Above) I actually do like it myself.

Well, my little 9 yr old niece lost 3 teeth this summer. She has another one loose right now! My niece also loves the movie "National Treasure" with Nicholas Cage. We don't know why but she goes nuts! HA! She comes over & checks the cable listings to see if it will be on. She takes control of the remote worse than my bros. HA! I don't think they would even dare try to take it from her. Now we tell her when it is on etc. I'm sure it will be bought soon! :-)

Well, she made me & Grandpa watch & as we were watching she was eating a popsicle & exclaimed her 3rd tooth came out. HA! Well the tooth fairy saw how happy she was with National Treasure & decided to give her a Treasure Hunt for her Treasure! Yep, this was quite a change of plans for the tooth fairy so she had to go on a Supply T
reasure hunt Trip herself. HA! The pictures above are what the tooth fairy left minus one part that is missing at the moment so let me explain.

Under her pillow she found this green card which told her she had to find 5 clues. She also found the red card "Frozen Yum". She immediately went to the freezer knowing that meant her popsicles, which by the way Grandpa lets her eat in the morning! UGH!

In the freezer she found a Blue card Clue #1 with what you see & the back side not filled out of course. She also found a small Pirates of the Carribean card (missing here) which said "Not to be a lily scared mate" (I believe). She had to figure out this was telling her to go to Grandma & Grandpa's bedroom, which she was afraid to go to the night before to get something because the light was off.

When she got to Grandma & Grandpa's room she found Clue #2 Green Card & her next card telling her where to go (Blue), to Comb her Hair. When she got to the bathroom she found a packet of wide tooth combs. She hates combing her hair! There she also found an Orange card saying "Got Milk" and Cl;ue #3 the Orange card.

She then ran to the fridge and look by her milk. There she found the yellow card saying "Orange Snack" and clue #4 the red card. "Orange Snack" she knew immediately! The night before her auntie finished the few Cheese Puffs that were left and she was upset. She looked in the kitchen closet & found a brand new bag of Cheese Puffs, and clue #5 yellow card.

Then she had to figure out what to do with the clue cards. You can see it took her a few attempts to figure out the numbers & letter codes. She filled them out & then had to place the cards in order. Once she did it told her first to brush her teeth. She then went into the draw to get her tooth brush & there she found a brand new automatic Barbie tooth brush & a new tube of Barbie toothpaste.

The other cards told her she would find her treasure in the Zebra Box. Now, she has two zebra boxes. She looked in the first plain box for wrapping items & just had her black & white beads she got for her birthday. She then quickly ran to the zebra jewelry box with the zebra on top that her aunt bought her for her birthday. In there she found a $5 bill, a Angel pin actually an heirloom and a lovely shiny ring with 3 stars, one pink, one purple & one "diamond"! :-)

Grandpa even got a kick out of participating a bit! He was quite surprise the tooth fairy did all this & wondered how long or late the tooth fairy was doing all this at the house. Ha!

Last night I didn't want to get up to turn the channel while I was at the computer & they had the Amazing Race on with families. It dawned on me my niece would love something like that...it is just like the treasure hunt! HA!

This tooth fairy keeps upping the anty...lets just hope she runs out of teeth falling out before it kills the tooth fairy! HA! Amazing what one's love will just make you "have to do!" :-)

I hope this all makes sense? Let me know if it is confusing & I'll try to clarify if it is.

Class at the Emmys

Ok, I only saw the last two awards of the Emmys because I was working on a "project" at my folks so I'm checking it out online a bit. Now what is happening to the class for actors. Case in point....(I'm going to give you links but incase they change them tomorrow I wanted to put the pix too for you to enlarge!!!

Look at Jeremy Piven...what is up with that? I actually like the guy a lot. Love him in the one teen movie...First Daughter...maybe not? There were two out at the time but the one with Mark Harmon as the President. I thought he was a hoot & so adorable. I like guys like that. Masculine with a bit of the soft teddy bear goofiness! He was actually passionate too (character at least!) about seeing what is important in the moment! Ok, then he is in Serendipity & that was pretty cool. Look at him in the picture. His coat is too tight, the color doesn't match the pants...is that blue? He looks like he is on drugs! Like hey with my mom with me noone can arrest me! GEEZ! Poor mom!

Now in contrast...look at that MAN!!!!!!!! ;-) I don't think you can make Tom look bad! HA! I'm liking that gotee...hee hee...kinda funny with his signature mustache though. I don't care...what is that line...One Fine Day when Michelle Pfiefer's character's mom says "He is altogether Yummy!" Of course she is speaking about George Clooney at the time, which is true also but I think Tom qualifies too! :-) Just give me him in jeans, no shirt & barefoot! Ha! I'm sorry I just can't resist that in a man! Levi is a GOD! HA!

Side notes...I don't mean to be mean whatsoever with this. God knows Hollywood projects too much on on being thin and I certainly am no skinny minnie, but looking at Lorraine Bracco I got this thought of her doing Jenny Craig with Kirstie Alley & them doing some kind of competitive thing duking it out on commercials. Ha! The two of them hmmm who do you think would win that fight! Ha!

Also, seems saggy boobs is now in...look at the dresses! :-) Well, maybe the baby boomers are saying "who cares" and plastic surgery is too exhausting? I'll sure be happy! HA! Aging is hell! Especially when you are not...tiny! Ha! But as I say that is why God created fun Bustiers! ;-)

If you click on the links above you can then go forward & back & look at all the rest of the pix. Anyone have a favorite dress? I like the purple ones & especially that one with the jewels on the back.

Joan Collins is aging a bit but Morgan Fairchild "looks" like she is still doing ok, but who knows really! HA! I like Afre Woodard's too. I liked her in "Something New."

Ok, enough rambling...what do you think!

What is Love?

What does Love mean?

A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, "What does love mean?"

"When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint her toenails anymore. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That's love." Rebecca age 8 

 "When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know that your name is safe in their mouth." Billy age 4

"Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go  out and smell each other." Karl age 5

"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs." Chrissy age 6


"Love is what makes you smile when you're tired."  Terri age 4

"Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK." Danny - age 7


"Love  is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more. My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss" Emily age 9


"Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen." Bobby - age 7 (Wow!)

"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate," Nikka - age 6

"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday." Noelle - age 7

"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well." Tommy - age 6

"Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken." Elaine age 5

"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford." Chris age 7

 "Love  is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day." Mary Ann - age 4

"I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones." Lauren - age 4

"When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you." (what an image) Karen - age 7

"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she doesn't think it's gross." Mark - age 6

"You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget." Jessica - age 8

And the final one -- Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked to judge.

The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child.

he winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife. Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there. When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said, "Nothing I just helped him cry"

Dreaming of Keanu Tonight! ;-)


O...M...G!!!!! I will have some mighty fine dreams tonight! Good Lord! I went to dinner & the movies with a cousin tonight. We have not really hung out before so it was fun. She really needed a girls night out. She lives with a hubby & 3 other little men! HA! We went to see The Lake House! View the trailer this way...better! Ok, let me just say if you have not seen it, it was soooo much better than I thought it would be. I never thought is was possible for Keanu to get any more handsome & SEXY! Total meltdown!!!! Ok, if you haven't seen it & don't want anything ruined, you better stop reading now & just come back after you do see it!

First, turtle necks & jeans are so hot on him. I love the coats too. You should have seen my cousin & I when he goes to the party (pix below!) and he is on the porch & they are showing his oh so lovely back side! HA! ;-) She wanted them to take his coat off so she could see his tooshie! I was like take the jeans off! HA! But really I didn't even need that! I just loved looking at his hamstrings in jeans. YUM! But I've always had a thing for hamstrings...and chests & biceps too. hee hee! :-) See I don't need any plot...just let me stare a Keanu for 2 hours! HA!

Now I will admit I found myself having a bit of difficulty figuring out which was effecting the other...kinda like a Somewhere In Time...she brings him the watch but she can only bring him the watch because he has come back in time to see her but he only comes back in time to see her because she brings the watch...ha! I think Sliding Doors was easier to follow...another good one!

I loved when they were dancing & the camera work on them was incredible! It really showed the anticipatory feelings, the longing and surrendering! (Long Sigh!) It also is quite interesting how they just met but feel that connection (chemistry?). Like when people say "they just knew" or "Love at first sight." I don't know if I ever really believed in that. I mean I guess I always think it is hindsight bias but maybe it is because I never...hmmm fully felt it...I mean maybe a bit but then again obviously it didn't work out so... You know you think you feel that way & then it doesn't turn out so then were you wrong when you felt that?

The movie is kinda like You Got Mail too with the idea of falling in love with just letters. Is that really possible...ha funny since they kinda ask that question on the time factor! I know some critics didn't like it but geez just enjoy & don't analyze so much! HA! Go figure.. that comment from me! Movies are suppose to be an escape & sometimes nonreality...I mean like Snakes on a Plane makes logical sense! HA! Bush will have someone to bomb for that happening no doubt! HA!

It did make me think however...she asks if one can get a second chance...how about a third? It made me think how every event in our lives makes us grow & be a different person. Yes, I suppose for the better or worse...it is a roller coaster but...it makes one think about how every relationship, even if they do not work out brings us to the person we currently are AND ready for the next person or "THE" person we are meant to be with. She returns to the "old boyfriend" a number of times, she sees "Alex" a number of times but it isn't meant to be until they meet in the end (or we assume at that point) because that is the "right/perfect time". You know that "timing is everything" idea. What do you all think about that? I suppose I do believe that. It made me think about how he (or some guy in my life) may not be "the right person yet" to connect with her (me). And for that matter she (or I) could not be "the right person yet" for him...even a number of times meeting. We have to go through all the other experiences and then it works later. ??? What do you think? I suppose this is true not just for relationships but other experiences, illnesses etc. Hmmm.

Well, all I can say is I'm pre-ordering my DVD which comes out Sept 26th! :-) I liked the music too...take a listen (scroll down). I think I'll go get it tomorrow.

There were quite a few couples in the theater & the whole row behind us were a bunch of girlfriends that were probably in their 50s! HA! I think they were drooling just as much. I know my mom drools for Keanu so maybe I'll take her this week to see it! HA!

I did like some of "Alex's" ideas on his dad & the construction of the house. That was great insight! I love the idea of the building working with the environment. OHHH I almost forgot. You may not have known but I reacted...ha...part of the film was taped in the lobby of Roosevelt University! I was like OMG...ha...I spent so much time there working on my Masters. And then when they are showing the outside where you see Buckingham Fountain in the distance & the Indian on the horse...that would have been shot from the 2nd floor study area. Hard to study there..you end up watching everyone outside! I wish I knew they were taping there I would have gone & drooled watching Keanu in person! HA!

Well let me know what you thought if you did go see it.

Just Blame Men Again! HA!


I'm sooooo frustrated! I'm not sure if it is just how the world is changing & too many choices, maybe hormones or heck maybe both! HA!

There is nothing worse than finding a hair dryer or curling iron you love & it dies! It is as bad a breaking in a new mate I swear! HA! Well, the curling iron died a few weeks ago...those darn springs for the handle...what is the saying about sending a guy to the moon but...who is designing these things anyway? Its like pointed high heels. I love them but man they sure kill your toes & who is designing them? Who are we wearing them for? HA! 

2 curling irons have already been asked to hit the road! They just didn't satisfy me! HA! I went "interviewing" for #3 tonight! Ugh! What is with all the options. Do we need 400 degrees of heat on our hair? Anti Frizz, more shine, metal, ceramic, cushion handle, twirl cord, automatic shut off, 30 sec heat up and don't even get me started with SIZE! HA! I did have a 2 in...sorry I can't continue...ha! I had to kick it out. Just didn't satisfy me! HA! And what is with the "Protective Shield" now? HA! To think I've gone almost 30 yrs without a protective shield! HA!

Why can't they make one with all major options? Don't I want Anti Frizz & shine? Cat litter is the same way....why can't I get multi-cat, less smell, more clumping all in one! HA! And like my hair really needs all this anyways.

I don't know why I bother, 10 minutes after I curl it it has flopped! HA! No, I apparently didn't get in the "Awesome Hair" line when God was designing me! HA! Why do we even do all this? UGH.....MEN!!!! Damn them! ;-) And it gets all messed up once you start that smooching stuff anyways! HA!

Then I was tired when I got home & took an hr nap...big mistake...put me in a weird funk. I go to get my nails done (nope didn't get to this weekend) thinking it would perk me up...despite the fact that I just broke the last of the 2 long nails I had ugh! Saturn is getting a letter from me...I break all my nails grabbing my door! Get them done & proceed to screw up a few of them 10 min after I'm out of there! Ugh! I figured I better get a pedicure now that I'm out of the soft cast just in case. Speaking of which...gotta ice my foot. 3 classes in a row today. Tried to sit down for a bit but it is really hard. My spirit just isn't one to sit! Too passionate.

Well, we'll see if #3 gets to move in! HA! Maybe I should just start putting my hair up it in a ponytail or braiding it again like when I was a kid? I think those women who put their hair up long time ago had the right idea. Then when they "let it down" for some guy it really looked wonderful! HA! At least it has been growing faster lately. I actually had to go in & get my bangs trimmed after only 3 weeks.

Well, I'm actually yawing already...amazing. Only 1 class tomorrow so that is great.

If you have a great curling iron let me know what you are using and maybe I won't have to give so many their walking papers! :-)


I Didn't Even Know They Changed Light Bulbs! HA!

My aunt sent me this tonight & I thought it was cute & I'd share it with you. I love the lab one! :-) Looks like the lab I had when I was a kid! Gotta love those high need for achievers! HA! Country would be saying, "Is it in the fridge? I'll just have to eat everything in there so it doesn't spoil! Sure the lightbulb is what makes it cold!!" HA! Dusty...he'd be thrilled to just sleep in the dark and hope Country can't find him! HA!

How many dogs does it take to change a light bulb?


1. Golden Retriever: The sun is shining, the day is young, we've got our whole lives ahead of us, and you're inside worrying about a stupid burned out bulb.

2. Border Collie: Just one. And then I'll replace any wiring that's not up to code.

3. Dachshund: You know I can't reach that stupid lamp!

4. Rottweiler: Make me.

5. Boxer: Who cares? I can still play with my squeaky toys in the dark.

6. Lab: Oh, me, me!!!!! Pleeeeeeeeeze let me change the light bulb! Can I? Can I? Huh? Huh? Huh? Can I? Pleeeeeeeeeze, please, please, please, please, please!

7
. German Shepherd: I'll change it as soon as I've led these people from the dark, check to make sure I haven't missed any, and make just one more perimeter patrol to see that no one has tried to take advantage of the situation.

8. Jack Russell Terrier: I'll just pop it in while I'm bouncing off the walls and furniture.

9. Old English Sheep Dog: Light bulb? I'm sorry, but I don't see a light bulb!

10. Cocker Spaniel: Why change it? I can still pee on the carpet in the dark.

11. Yo quiero Taco Bulb. Or "We don't need no stinking light bulb."

12. Greyhound: It isn't moving. Who cares?

13. Australian Shepherd: First, I'll put all the light bulbs in a little circle...

14. Poodle: I'll just blow in the Border Collie's ear and he'll do it. By the time he finishes rewiring the house, my nails will be dry.

How Many Cats Does it Take to Change a Light Bulb?

Cats do not change light bulbs. People change light bulbs. So, the real question is:

"How long will it be before I can expect some light, some dinner, and a massage?"

ALL OF WHICH PROVES, ONCE AGAIN, THAT WHILE DOGS HAVE MASTERS, CATS HAVE STAFF!

A Night in Munchkin Land!


What a way to end the summer. Ok, I know technically we have 2 more weeks until Labor day but I've always felt summer ends with "Back to School" and that starts tomorrow for me so...

Last night (Sat) I took my little niece to see "The Wizard of Oz" being shown outside under the stars with one of the biggest screens I've ever seen! It was just a moment I hope I can still remember when I'm an very old lady! :-) They had the characters dressed up! My niece got to meet Glenda! :-) She saw Dorothy but couldn't get to meet her before the show started. My niece just turned 9 yr this past July & it seems she still thinks they are the characters...good hopefully one more year with Santa Claus...I'm not ready to have her grow up yet! HA!

You know I'm not sure who had more fun she or I! HA! And quite frankly you could see that same question with other parents. Couples even just walking by on the riverwalk stopped & snuggled & watched! Even the police officer on the bike stopped & watched twice for a while! ;-) Oh speaking of police officers...ha! On our way to the movie we walked by this fountain my niece likes. Well this little brother decided to push his older brother in the fountain! HA! Totally soaked! The father had the officer who came by give the little one a talking to! HA!

The movie was the original version & I don't think??? I've seen it on a screen? So that was AWESOME. Man, two in one summer. I had taken my older niece to see Gone With The Wind this summer on a screen. The original version & we met the woman who played Bonnie Bell Blue so this was quite a fun summer. Watching all the kids & hearing their expressions was also soooo much fun. My niece was still a bit frightened when the lion came on the screen so she came to sit in my lap then. :-) I wasn't sure if she recognized the characters were the same as the men on the farm earlier, and the wizard & witch so I asked her to really look at their faces then if she had seen them before. She then seem to get it. Today we talked about how it was fromDorothy getting hit on the head & her dreaming. We also talked about how the scarecrow kept coming up with great ideas but thought he didn't have a brain, how the Tim Man cried even though he thought he didn't have a heart & what courage is & how the lion went to save Dorothy. I said you can still be frightened but if you still do it then you have courage. :-) Ahhhh! I love kids!

Afterwards we went to the cookie dough place again. Dang I'm going to get my cousin for taking me...I'm hooked! But this time I ASKED for the baby scoop but if that was a baby scoop they must have some very big babies! HA! I still could not finish it. I really need to just go with some date & then share. I'll only have a few bites & he can have the rest! :-) I'll make a promise to myself now not to go until maybe Halloween now. I would think they may have some cool pumpkin or something then. Especially, since I did lose weight. Down 1 size in my jeans! :-) Don't want to screw that up. We did walk around the town afterwards to take in the excitement of the town & walk off what we were eating! HA! Barnes & Noble kicked us out! HA! Well, my watch said we had 5 min. We walk in & he said we had 1 min. I was like ok, we'll look right in front & then 10 sec later he says they are closed. I said "Well that was an interesting definition of 1 min" Ha! What happened to the Midnight closings??? We then walked around & looked at the interesting baby dinosaurs they have on the sidewalks. Kinda like the Cows in Chicago. One was cracked tiles so I explained how that was like the tile floor that grandpa had & how they clue the pieces back in that use to fall out...house was 29 yrs old! HA! She loved that one. I'll have to take her back again.

Then today..ha! My niece is such a hoot. First, she has been all excited to go back to school for at least the past month. I thought, great she will love learning etc...nope! She can't wait because her grade has a new playground with monkey bars! HA! So then she said she was hoping to get the male teacher for her grade. Well, she found out she is getting him so she said, "It is just like Cinderella!" The adults looked at each other trying to figure out that one! HA! We won't go there! HA! She then starts to sing, "A Dream is a Wish your Heart Makes". Isn't that the cutest. Now you ready for the next one. We are out to dinner & she takes her 1/2 cherry & puts it up to her nose & starts to sing Rudolph. HA! We all were laughing so hard! I think some people at the other tables were also!

Well, hmmm am I suppose to go to bed early for class tomorrow?!? HA! I don't think that is going to happen! HA! Well you know professors don't assign much the first day anyways right? Just the syllabus! HA! Pathetic huh! Well, we will do a few fun things I'll tell you about tomorrow, but I do need to wash some clothes & figure out what I'm going to wear. You know those first impressions & students laughing at the Prof...well I don't mind actually I'll do things purposely to get them! HA! And I suppose I should start the school year off right & take some fruit & a nutritious lunch huh! HA! I have some treats for my colleagues too to get ready. Man what will my babies do with me gone after having me here during the summer...ha!  

Well good luck to everyone who is has kids returning to school tomorrow or later this week.

Sigh...My Sweet Visitor!


Sniff, sniff! Damn cats! I went to feed my birds before I headed up north to the folks & there were tons of bird feathers on the grass. I think my little visitor from the other night was a part of the "circle of life." UGH! I'm just so upset now.

I should have brought him in but I just thought I shouldn't touch him or what if I hurt him more. I know next time I'll try to get him in a box. Of course I'd have to keep him away from my cats but I probably could have put him in the 2nd bedroom or bathroom. And to think I put cat food out for the cat I saw a few days prior. Well, he apparently needs no help so he is not getting any more treats from me! I hope he gets indigestion!

This is why I can't let me cats roam...well that & the thought of them being flattened by a car, which for those two people who let theirs in the past 6 months out that I ended up hitting, you will have me to answer to someday!!! I was so angry with God the last time. I don't know how anyone can kill someone...well other than self-defense maybe.

Well I got my hair trimmed. She said the one side wasn't the same...that is what I thought. She wouldn't do anything about the color though & I wasn't too happy about that. I'm going back in 2 weeks & if it isn't ok then I might have to find someone else. I may have some luck though. My mom said my dad found "a big curling iron" in the boxes from when they moved. I wonder...might be that I bought one for their house so I wouldn't have to travel with one...that would be great! I can't find one like my last one. I returned my latest one & I'm going to wait to see if what she thinks is "big" is what I think is! Ha! Might be my sis & she doesn't use as big of one as I do.

Well, I better get going. My niece ask me on the phone "I thought you were coming in the afternoon?" Ugh! I told her maybe she would like to go with me when I get my nails done...girl's outing!

My Visitor Update & Some!


Hi! Well, I checked on my little visitor when I left to head to PT & he was gone! I'm praying he took off by his own means & was not some ego starved kitty who got an easy catch & bragged about his bravery catching him. I just wished it was a better day for flying. It was gray and drizzly all day today! Ugh! Hopefully tomorrow will be better. Fog is even setting in tonight.

Well I went to PT for the first time since I got my soft cast off on Mon. He was so glad to see me! :-) First, thing he said was "You've lost weight!" HA! Gotta love a man who says that to you. Actually, later in the evening my old neighbor said the same thing!! Well, he did the tens unit & then ultrasound but that was it. He didn't even massage it. Just poked a bit to see where it hurts. He said no stretching, treadmilling NOTHING! UGHHHHHH! I'm sooooo frustrated. I'm like the soft cast is off...LET'S GO! I know he wants it to rest more & if I push too hard it will just get worse but I'm just not a patient person. I'm use to figuring out what I want, what I have to do to get it & then GETTING IT! Darn high need for achiever in me! HA! I go back next Friday. God I hope I can do more after next week but we'll see what happens after being on it all next week for classes. Students come back Monday! 

After PT I went "Back to School Shopping" :-) Yep, I guess I did lose weight! Got some great cool stuff. Now I have to go through my closet & find what doesn't fit anymore & see if I want to do a garage sale this fall or just donate it. I'm thinking about moving. Going to make some phone calls next week.

Ahhh drinking some home made OJ! Put my clementines through my Jack LaLane juicer! :-) Now I have to go get some more clementines! HA! Going to get my hair perked up tomorrow. I don't know what the deal is but I just got it done 3 weeks ago & my bangs are too long already & the color is blah. Well, she'll fix it up for starting school. I think I'll go get a manicure & pedicure tomorrow too. A bit of pampering before starting school is called for I think! And my foot had been wrapped up in that soft cast for 4 weeks so it needs some primping! Then I think I'll head up north to my folks & spend the weekend with my little niece. She goes back home Sunday & then it will be back to school & I won't get to see her so much! :-(  Maybe she'll want to get some cookie dough again! Ha! I know, I'll split with her. I think they have a baby scoop! I want to also go walk this Labyrinth near there too.

I was all excited about getting a Verizon Q & then I found out our campus only supports Palm! UGH! Now I'm not sure what to do. I do need to figure this out soon. I need to figure out if I want to have my phone on it or just upgrade my phone seperately.

Well, need to go chill. More later!
