Prince Charming Applications

Ok, so when I was younger (15-18), whenever I was at a church dance or an EFY or something I would hand one of these out to all the guys. Everyone seemed to get a kick out of them, I even got a few back filled out. If you know of anyone to hand them to and have them send one to me with a picture that sounds good to me HAHA!!

Extroverted Person Living in an Introverted World

I've been back in Hannibal for pretty much a year now, and it hasn't been the worst thing in the world. But today is Saturday....and I went to the movies....BY MYSELF!!! It's hard to make friends here when everyone I come into contact with is at least 10 years older than me and seems to be in a relationship. Even my friends in Columbia seem to have moved on, having relationships, having different jobs, having babies, etc etc etc. I tend to be the social butterfly, so when this happens, it drives me nuts!! Hopefully I can find something that will fix this situation and soon.

I think a hysterectomy sounds GREAT!

Same old medical problem, my period, only WORSE! The nurse practitioner put me on birth control which seemed to work for a whopping 5 days and then my symptoms came back only much much worse. I've been lucky in the sense that I've never really had cramps with my periods, that is until I started birth control. My next appointment with the nurse was scheduled for two days after my birthday, but I can't live like this anymore. I am going straight to a doctor because I'm fed up and I can't live like this! I feel more tired, more irritable, cramping and just a general YUCK. I just would like some general answers as to what is going on beside "oh it must be due to your weight." Excuse me but that isn't an acceptable answer, there are many big people in the world that don't have this problem. I understand weight can play a part, but....c'mon! I sure hope my doctor can give me some answers, keep me in your prayers

Don't Pee on the Police Station!!!

This weekend was my friend Michelle's 30th birthday. I drove to Columbia Saturday morning to hang out with her for the weekend and be her designated driver as she planed to drink (a lot). I typically have no problem being the designated driver, I rather people be responsible and call me than be stupid and stumble around or worse...drive. Plus, being the designated driver gets you some good blackmail stories!!! My friends are pretty cool too and always show their appreciation for me driving them by treating me to dinner or buying me soda's while they drink. I don't expect them to do this, but it's nice that they do it.

ANYWAY, we went to Mc Nally's in Columbia and it was PACKED, so we had to opt for a table outside instead of inside and it was chilly. Of course I was bored with nothing to really do but babysit a group of drunken adults. I played the bathroom monitor and pretty much made sure no one hurt themselves. When we went to leave Michelle couldn't make it up the hill to the car, she was 'sick'. So I had to run and get the car and pick up her and 3 other friends of ours. Two of our friends decided they wanted to walk over to the police station and pee on it. Not a good idea, especially considering that their was a group of police standing outside. So I had to wrangle everyone into the car and get them buckled in. Then the two that wanted to relieve themselves rolled down the windows so they could yell at the police. I am grateful to have automatic windows, I rolled up the windows and put it on lock so I was the only one who could control the windows.

I managed to get everyone home and in good condition (even if they weren't sober.) But let me just say....it wore me out and I probably won't ever be a designated driver again (too much responsibility and stupidity.)

The Birthday Bash











My dad's party was a big hit. I am so glad that we had so many people show up (55 people filed through the house.) He seemed to have a lot of fun and was surrounded by family and friends. Here are some pictures of the lovely event.
