Argh! First off I was taking my kitty Mazey upstairs to bed like I do every night. I looked at her cute furry face smiling up at me and then FLASH! She bit my face! Usually I know when she is in a weird mood and would be prone to bite but this time there was no warning. Now I have this ghetto cut on my cheek and I would look like Nelly if I put a bandaid on it.
Next, I am trying to grow out my hair. Yet I am definitely a short hair person. To squelch my desire to cut it all off I decided to dye my hair. Nothing crazy mind you. Just a simple brown with some browner/slightly red highlights. I mean I have done crazier things with my hair. Apparently my hair didn’t want to be a yummy chocolately brown but a brightass red. I have dyed my hair reddish before but this is almost hot pink! Nothing is going my way. Oh well…I actually am still in the process of dying my hair still and I won’t know what it will truly look like until its done. I doubt I will redye it this week (my hair is damaged enough as it is). I’ll just try to make the best of it. Knowing me it will turn out green. It’s not the end of the world and I don’t care enough to go to a professional to fix it. It won’t last too long and maybe I can dye over it in a couple of weeks.

So whilst taking a shower yesterday I noticed how scuzzy the shower liner looked and how dirty the actual curtain looked. It was a really pretty shabby chic thingy. But what finally put me over the edge was when I put a towel on the bar (like I had done so many times before) and the bar crashed down upon me. That was the final straw. I had to get a new shower rod, curtain, and liner. I asked my mom if she trusted me to get some on my own and she said yes. Of course in mother/woman speak that means no. She met me out at Target to supervise my picking. I was just going to pick something simple and pretty like what was already in there. If it was exclusively my bathroom I might have thought about doing something fun, yet because it was a public bathroom and would be used by guests during the holidays I thought plain was fine. Well mom totally surprised me and told me to get something fun. She kinda wanted this old lady thing with blue and white checks and rubber duckies on it. It was cute but looked like baby boy fabric. Finally we decided on this really cute curtain with polka dots and rubber duckies on it. It was a more modern and colorful version of the one she liked. The hangers we got have ducks, turtles and frogs. Plus, we got a polka dotted rug to complete the bathroom. Now the bathroom is a ton of fun but kinda looks like it is for a 5 year old. O well…I like it and that is all that matters because I am the one in there the most.
All this rubber ducky talk reminds me of a song that resides in the deep recesses of my mind. It was on Sesame Street and Ernie sang it in the bathtub.
Rubber Ducky, you’re the one,
You make bathtime lots of fun,
Rubber Ducky, I’m awfully fond of you;
Woo woo be doo
Rubber Ducky, joy of joys,
When I squeeze you, you make noise!
Rubber Ducky, you’re my very best friend, it’s true!
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo
Every day when I
Make my way to the tubby
I find a little fella who’s
Cute and yellow and chubby
Rub-a-dub-a-dubby!
Rubber Ducky, you’re so fine
And I’m lucky that you’re mine
Rubber ducky, I’m awfully fond of you.
Every day when I
Make my way to the tubby
I find a little fella who’s
Cute and yellow and chubby
Rubber Ducky, you’re so fine
And I’m lucky that you’re mine
Rubber ducky, I’m awfully fond of -
Rubber ducky, I’d like a whole pond of -
Rubber ducky I’m awfully fond of you!
Doo doo, be doo
I don’t know about you but I know that I will be singing that in the shower tomorrow.

Why is it that right after Independence Day we gear up for Halloween. Before October is even half way over…we hear Christmas songs in stores and see all those winter things for sale. Well I say WHAT ABOUT THANKSGIVING!?
I would think that it would be up there with Independence Day, if you are talking about a holiday that deals with our country’s heritage. I mean it’s one of the least controversial holidays. Well I guess the whole thing about the Indians and Protestant Pilgrims giving thanks for stuff is a little religious but if one is not religious then they still celebrate Thanksgiving. You can hear the story in PUBLIC schools! And they are really touchy when it comes to having feelings hurt. With no religious connection, it’s still a good idea to be thankful for what you have! Plus you get to eat tons and tons of food guilt-free, watch the rockettes on the telly, and have pumpkin pie!
I am tired of this food conscientious world where you must abstain from everything. You won’t get fat if you eat things in moderation and pigging out one or two days a year won’t kill you.
I say raise your turkey legs and mash potato laden forks…this year THANKSGIVING IS BACK!

10/13/2006 – I attended a fabulous wedding reception for my old friend Audra. Oh she looked wonderful! As did her bridesmaids! I loved the slideshow! I thought that was a nice touch. Emma was absolutely gorgeous and Sarah looked perfectly lovely. Ellen, Amanda, and Jen looked beautiful too! I would comment on the others but I really don’t know them. I had a great time mingling with old friends and meeting the infamous Ryan and Brock. Both of whom are really nice guys and live up to the all the stories I hear of them.:-)
10/15/2006 – MiJo, his two brothers, his father, and myself all went to Cedar Point. It was a beautiful clear day in the fifties and none of the lines were over 30 minutes. It was a good time!
10/20/2006 – My illustrious boyfriend and myself went to the rerelease of The Nightmare Before Christmas in Disney’s new 3D format. I absolutely love the music! Plus the 3D glasses didn’t give me a headache! It was really cool and I look forward to more movies being made with it.
10/21/2006 – I attended a pig-roast and a professors farm. I mingled with other students but primarily the goats. One attacked Mike’s leather jacket! Apparently animals are animal rights activists. I found a snake and named him Emoman. That name comes from some movie Mike and I saw. That’s a story in itself but just go with it for now.
10/28/2006 – I went to see Saw. Get it see saw! That’s classic! It was gross but I guess on par with the other movies. Mike thinks it was better. When will movies be scary because of suspense rather than gore. I think gore is just more gross.
10/29/2006 – Reformation Sunday! I made a special appearance and sang in the choir. Mother, also the director, really needed a soprano. Boy let me tell you. I definitely don’t think I can do that anymore. I am definitely an alto.
Okay so that is a pretty good review of the past couple of weekends. The weekdays were the same. School. Work. Homework. Sleep. Watch TV. You know. The regular.
