So, my sister keeps bugging me to update. She's all like, "Why don't you ever update anymore?" Insert your own paticular brand of whiny. Now as I sit here hopefully she will realize that I really have nothing exciting to say. This will bore her and any other poor unfortunate soul who stumbles upon this right to tears.....sorry..I spaced cause I looked up and saw my icon of Miller and got distracted....Just as a side note, I have started a sentence and erased it TWICE cause I have nothing impotrtant to say.

Ok, I'm done racking my brain. Sorry I tried. Maybe something exciting will happen over the weekend I will have the worlds most amazing post.

PS..DIERKS CUT ALL HIS HAIR OFF. I am now in mourning.

You Are 76% Indie

You're a very indie person, and admit it, you look down a little on people who strive to be normal. You'll indulge in a little mainstream pop culture every now and then. But for you, anything not indie is a guilty pleasure!

Now I feel bad!

How You Are In Love

You take a while to fall in love with someone. Trust takes time. You tend to give more than take in relationships. You tend to get very attached when you're with someone. You want to see your love all the time. You're secretly hoping your partner will change for you. You stay in love for a long time, even if you aren't loved back. When you fall, you fall hard.

PFFT! WHATEVER!

You Are Lightning

Beautiful yet dangerous People will stop and watch you when you appear Even though you're capable of random violence You are best known for: your power Your dominant state: performing

You Are 20 Years Old

Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe. 13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world. 20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. 30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! 40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

Have you ever, while you were driving, what people look like in their car? I was driving to work today and I was looking at people as I passed them and every single person in their car had thier mouth hangining open and a zoned out expression on their face. The moday zombie look. It was really funny.

This weekend was busy but a great weekend. Friday night Autumn and Koty came home with me and we curled up in my bed and read books, all three of us. Then on Saturday we went in service. After service I slept like all afternoon cause Friday night I had a really upset stomach and it kept me up. Then I went to Bonnie's house and watched all the shows on CW that she taped. Then Blake and Tim called and they were going to pick up Aubrey and going to LCD to ge pizza and they wanted us to go so we went. Those three together are too much. Blake was trying to teach Aubrey how to dance and it was so funny I was doubled over. On Sunday dad had a talk in Buffalo S. East cong so me and Autumn went with. That is the second time I have been there and I got to eat with the same people. This family is so nice and so we exchanged numbers and I am going up there to hang with them soon. After I got home I went over to Terry and Jim"s with Bennetts and me and Bonnie cause she had a friend from Long Island up. Her name is Diana and she is great. She's a little younger than me and we exchanged e-mails and we are making plans for me to come see her. So all in all it was a great weekend.

Since this is October I start my service schedule and to make it even better I have two studies already to start the month. How cool is that??

Anyway, I gotta run....haven't updated in a long time...huh.

I really hoped that worked...and I am soooo not surprised about Liv Tyler being on that casue people tell me I look like her all the time. This was very cool...Way to go Alie.

That was fun. Wow, this weeekend was awsome. The assembly was just what I needed to remember to chill and everything will be fine. My first official part time day was Friday and on Saturday I sorta had a mini panic attack. This weekend was the perfect remedy. I can't wait to start pioneering again. Come on October, get here.

I ahve convinced everyone in my office to celebrate this day!! Come on and celebrate with us. Mark your calendar.

So I came home from vacation and they all of a sudden have me working six days a week. I'm like, whatever, I'm just gonna go part time in September anyway so suck it up. However, on Wednesday I was not feeling all that great and I needed to take some time to chill. So I called in and my nephew who was staying with me decided he was gnna hang with me for the day. We decided to have a Smallville Marathon. Around lunchtime we needed food. So I go out to the kitchen for leftover turkey and gravy. I though..oooh...potatoes. So I'm making potatoes and and I looked down and I had just stepped over a worm. I'm like oh gross. Theres a worm in my kitchen. So I leaned down to see if it was dead and saw that it was actually a baby snake. YES. A SNAKE. Most of you know the mortal fear I have of these creatures. So I screamed at the top of my lungs and yelled for my nephew. I'm standing in a chair and now I am crying. That's how bad I am. He comes running out and I'm screaming SnAKE SNAKE SNAKE. He sees it and he starts yelling. I'm like get it out get it out. He yells(and I mean we are screaming this) I can't. I asked him why. He yells I hate snakes. I'm like but you play with them outside. He's like yea when there in a box. I say well you have to get it out cause Aunt Nikki can't move. I am bawling. He runs to the bathroom grabs a towle and wraps it up and throws it outside. The whole time we are both still screaming. It took me 20 minutes to get off the chair. Needless to say, we finished everything we had to in the kitchen and ran into the livingroom, wrapped ourselves in blankets and refused to move until my dad got home. Looking back I can laugh. At the time, I WANTED TO DIE!! So, that was my hightlight of the week!

So it was brought to the attention of me and Alison last night that we are useless at the scene of a crime. We decided last night to go spend money we sooooooo didn't have to eat dinner at KFC/Taco Bell. We have recently made some friends there and they were all there last night. We order our food, joke a little with the guys and sit to eat. The one guy..Captain Geech...don't ask me that's what his nametag says..says goodbye cause he's done with his shift. We were like, "later". He's gone for like 10 min and he comes back in. He is PISSED. Apparently, some girl he know and is, so it seems, not happy with Captain Geech, actually ran her car up over the sidewalk with the apparent intention of hitting Captain Geech and forces him into the side of the building and then speeds off. EVERYONE in the restaraunt saw this happen but me and Al, and to top it all off this apparently happened right in front of the window I was facing. Where was I? I guess I better brush up on my observation skills if I am to enter a life of crime solving....

These were some of my favorite shots from vacation.
This is one of me and my family at one of the fountains at the Mossouri Botanical Gardens

This was one of the largest ball of twine found in Cawker City Kansas.

Those were just a few of the pics. I took like 500 the whole two weeks. I wish I could say it was good to be home, but I hate the streess of life here and I really hate my job. I need a change.

from Gorgetown, Colorado. We are sooooo in the mountains. Absolutely breathtaking. Alie and I miss our boards and ski's. We have had a great trip so far, well, with the exception of a few minor snaffoos. we did find the World's Largest Ball of twine in Cawker City Kansas. Kansas has some wierd arse things. We went up tp the top of the arch and i nearly puked. Very high. We stopped at a visitor center where we have 15 min free internet use. So I decided to update. We are alive and well and on our way to Vail to get something snowboardy. See you when we get home!!

These were the words that my mom said to my dad right after I had called and let them know that I had just gotten into a car accident. Seriously the last month has sucked so bad. It all started on the night of game seven of Sabres/Carolina. I went home from the meeting early cause I was sick and my mom tells me that my boss called and that I needed to call her back. It was urgent. So, I'm like great. What did I do now? She tells me that someone from one of our group homes called her and said that I hit her car and left the scene. I was like WHAT!!??!!?? I never hit anyones car. So I called her and I was like, YO, I didn't hit your car. And she's all like well, our consumer said that you did. I wanted top be like, AND YOU BELIEVED HER??? This paticular consumer has a history of making things up and isn't very reliable. So, instead of coming to me first she went and filed a hit and run with the police. I'm like OMG. Then she says she wants me to bring the car over to her so she can look at it. I agreed at first but then Ithought about it and decided I better let the police see it first. So I took it to the police station and the investigating officer came out and walked around my car once and was like, uh..you didn't hit anyone. I'm like I KNOW!! he said he didn't even know why the girl was making a big deal as there were only two paint scratched on the bumper. Heseemed fairly disgusted. Then I find out that this girl that says I hit her is a trouble maker anyway. So from then on stupid crap kept happening. My back door wouldn't close, etc...then yesterday I get into a freakin' accident and in order to pay my deductible I need to use ALL of my vacation money and I leave on the 30th. I am so pissed of right now. I just need a break. I need to go sit somewhere by the Ocean alone and get myself together. I am experiencing burn out at work and in my personal life even though I am trying so hard to get everything in order and make good decisions and all that. I swear the powers that be are against me. I have offended the cosmos and I don't even know how. And to top it all off freakin' CAROLINA is winning and I HATE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Someone shoot me.

That quote is funny. Annyway, I am once again struck by how different me and Alie are. Today me, her and Mis went to lunch and the mall. We walked by a poster that had the word Bloom in large print and she giggled. (She is facinated with Orlando Bloom, for those of you who don't know her) Me and Mis rolled our eyes and walked away. Then when we went into Payless I saw a sign that had the word Stanley in bold print and I giggled. (I am obsessed with Hockey in case you didn't know). Sometimes I don't know how we came out of the same womb. Anyway, she bought me a skirt and a matching shirt and jeans. So I love her. Even though I am paying her back for the jeans and shirt. The skirt was a gift. We saw an old friend today that sent Alie and I right back to school and the "bad place" we go to whenever we see this friend. KUDOS to Alie who didn't get the digits. Would have been a bad idea.
