Full moon, Friday night, relaxin' in the crib!

Before I get started, Minnesota pics promised by 11PM Sunday! I got my camera back and I'm procrastinating at this point.

So weird day. I woke up with a hang over...but I only had one beer last night. I think it was the champagne. I split a bottle with Erin, Sean, and Joshy. It was our Bells Angels Champagne Thursday ride, but it wasn't much of a ride because roomie and I got into it! We did get some riding in though. I think after all of the riding in Minneapolis, the riding around here just seems so blah. I think sometime this weekend I'm going to go seek out some trails. One of the girls on my team is racing Sunday in a cyclo-cross race...I think I'm going to go check it out. She told me I should join! Sounds fun, but I want to see what it's all about before I do.

So after I woke up, Erin came and picked me up, went to the bank, and went to BJ's for some lunch...I had the mini pizza and a house salad, and this time, it wasn't that bad! Then we went to Hobby Lobby where I got some new paint pens so I can work on these spoke cards some more. Once I get a few of them finished, I'll post pics. They're looking way more bad ass than the ones I've been doing.

Spent the majority of my day at the gallery. We prepped things for the arts market tomorrow, and put together rolls of blank paper for our gift wrapping fundraiser (want to make some gift wrap? let me know...it's for a good cause! If you're an artist and have some mad skills...I'll give you ten feet of white paper to unleash on!)

I also did a bunch of my homework at the gallery, but slacked off the closer it got to four. I was supposed to be writing a paper while I was there, but instead just gathered the info needed. Then we went to the liquor store to take Joshy his spoke card...BTW FIRST LAMINATED SPOKE CARD WAS GIVEN TODAY TO JOSHY! Let the spoke tagging begin! oh and Emily...I'm working on a special one for you! Cory and I collaborated on it! It will be laminated!

So then I went and rode my bike to the pool, didn't get in the water today because it's game day for the kids. I'm not a big fan of game day because I would rather be swimming than playing sharks and minnows, but I realize that this kind of stuff is essential for team building and self esteem building. We did the 123 SSC shout before practice was up. Felt good, I love being apart of Sooner Swim Club. I'm in love with coaching swimmers...I'm in love with aquatics.

So then I came home, wrote my paper (which was BOMB) and turned that bitch in! Oh...right before I got home, I almost got hit by a car on Boyd. Mind you, I was wearing a reflective jacked, had all of my LED lights on (two blinkies in the front, one blinky in the back) and this whore still didn't see me! I was pretty freaked out. I swear, one of these days I'm really going to get hit...and it's really going to suck. I've started wearing my helmet when I ride. I was inspired by Emily, and my friend Ben in Minneapolis who insisted on Cory wearing his extra helmet (thanks Benny...I mean it...we don't need any accidents especially ones that involve our loved ones).

So after I turned in the paper, I took a shower, cleaned the living room and dining room, and made some dinner. Left overs from last night. baked chicken with gravy, asparagus, and green leaf salad with organic tomato green onions and balsamic vinegar. mmmmm...Now I'm just kind of taking it easy. Cory's coming to Norman with some friends, and said he would call me when he got into town, but I'm not counting on it really. I mean, I am...I would love to see him...but I understand if he doesn't call. I have to wake up super early to be at the Arts Market tomorrow, then I have to meet with my group from class to work on our final project...I really don't want to meet with them tomorrow...

...but one thing I have to look forward to is a nice sushi dinner for my birthday! That's right, my boo is taking me out. We're going out to eat tomorrow night, although I would much rather him make me dinner and be all romantic and light candles and la dee da but we wont get into that...Sushi is good enough for me, and I know that it's going to be a very lovely evening/night/Sunday morning! I plan on getting all gussied up before dinner too...well, maybe a little gussied, I don't want to look too sorority!

So I was thinking tonight about DVD's. See I'm moving in with my parents, and I got rid of my TV, DVD player and a ton of DVD's...but I saved my VCR (on accident) and I was thinking about getting rid of it, but then I realized, no matter what, my absolute favorite movie in the entire world is Waiting To Exhale, and I only own it on VHS.

That's right, I love that movie. It's got everything! Drama, comedy, Love story...it's perfect, and I think I love it also because I've always wanted a close group of girl friends that I can run to when I have gossip or drama...I've always wanted that group of girls that will come over, drink wine with me, eat dinner, and gossip all night and wont hesitate to spend the night! I love that kind of stuff but I never get to do it. I mean, Erin and I do that stuff...and it's awesome...but I think it would be way more awesome if we had a couple of other girls to hang out with.

So I've been playing around with the pandora.com radio station, and I think I found my new favorite chill station. Erykah Badu radio...oh man, it's so awesome. I had it turned up and had a candle light dinner by myself...and it felt amazing. I might make a bloody mary and just take it easy and then go to bed. Or I might roam around my house! Or I might bust out these new paint pens and work on some new cards.

I wish I had my other paint pens though...Cory has all of my supplies at his house. I forgot to grab all of it on my way out the other morning. Well, I guess i'm going to find something to do before bed.

again, I promise I'll post the Minneapolis pics by sunday night!
