I saw this on Anderson Cooper the other day... and apparently so did many others. It's just about the cutest thing I've ever seen! (Well except for all the ADORABLE things Kitty does of course!) ;)
In other news... on my way to the gym today, I was walking from the parking lot behind a guy smoking. Hmmmm? I bet he had a lovely work out.
Also I have a question for everyone. What does it mean when a streetlight goes out just as you are going under it? I mean, obviously, it's the light going out for whatever reason... but isn't there something else? Like if you feel a shiver- someone is walking over your grave. Or if your ears are ringing- someone is talking about you. Doesn't it mean something??? I've had it happen to me in the last two days and I can't think what this means! I hope it's good whatever it is... Gilly! :}

Memory Monday
So this memory is brought to you by the letters T and T. It is one involving an old roommate of mine- Terra Hatch.
I don't have any pictures of her, but she was adorable of course! She was this little bitty thing, who laughed at everything.
Sometimes in the evening I would get tired of studying and so I would "rest" for a bit. Usually I was on the bean bag chair we owned. What better place to rest... I mean study!
One night, as I was taking a few moments to let what I had learned seep in, out of nowhere I hear the loudest
TAMMY!!!!!!!
Yes, my sweet, sweet Terra thought it would be SO funny to scare the tar out of me. Holy smokes! I don't think I could breath for a good ten minutes. She and my other roomies found it hysterical, and couldn't stop laughing. I wasn't too amused at first, but after some time, I giggled about it too. And now that I look back on it, it was a great joke. One I hope I can play on someone someday!
As a result, I never "rested" again while Terra was in the room. She said she wouldn't do anything, but how can you believe someone who would do that?!? ;)

Sunset Sunday
Sorry I missed the past two days... but sometimes my friends keep me out too late. With visions of hockey, IHop and Sushi in my head (not all at the same time mind you!) it's hard to do anything but go straight to bed. But isn't that better than just sitting at home writing on a blog??? I declare yes! And good times were had by us all.
But I'm here with you tonight... and I have a something for you to give some thought to this snowy winter's night. (Yay for soft fluffy snow... but NO carols yet!!!) :)
An elderly man in Florida had owned a large farm for several years. He had a large pond in the back. It was properly shaped for swimming, so he fixed it up nice with picnic tables, horseshoe courts, and some orange and lime trees.
One evening the old farmer decided to go down to the pond; as he hadn't been there for a while, and look it over. He grabbed a five- gallon bucket to bring back some fruit. Nearing the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee. As he came closer, he saw it was a bunch of young women skinny-dipping in his pond. He made the women aware of his presence and they all went to the deep end. One of the women shouted to him, 'we're not coming out until you leave!' The old man frowned, 'I didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim naked or make you get out of the pond naked...' Holding the bucket up he said, 'I'm here to feed the alligator.'
Some old men can still think fast.
I hope we all can be fast thinkers when we're all grown up.
(I didn't say my Sunday thinking had to always be serious!) :)
Have a good week. And Happy Birthday Jonny and Maggie!

The ABC's I'm thankful for...
Thanksgiving is next Thursday, as we all know, and so I'm going to tell the ABC's of what I'm thankful for. (I saw this on my friend Melissa's blog and thought it was pretty cool.)
America. I know everyone says it... but I don't think it's one of those 'thankfuls' that ever gets cliche. How can every single one of us not be thankful for our freedom and all that America gives us???
Books. Not only because they give me a job ;), but because they take me to so many places and help me take a break from life.
Co-workers. Really,sometimes I don't know how we would get through a day without each other.
Dessert. Sometimes you just have to have it before dinner. It just makes you feel good.
Each time I come home and Kitty greets me at the door. I know it's silly, but who doesn't want to feel welcome and wanted.
Family and friends... which in some cases are the same thing.
George Clooney. :) Just looking at him makes me happy. And why not. I'm a simple girl, with simple needs. It makes life easier!
Hot drinks... especially steamers! Mmmmm! They are yummy and make you feel all cozy and good inside when everything else is so cold.
Internet. E-mails. Blogs. Hulu! Sites that have celebrity gossip...
Journals. They not only allow you to say everything you want to say, but they are fun to look back on and see all the great AND ridiculous things you did. And all the crazy boys you liked!
Kitty. Which I know sounds silly... but she is my best company sometimes. She makes me laugh and listens so intently when I need to vent. With hardly any backtalk!
Libraries. All the free books you could want!
Movies. For two hours, or so, I can think of nothing else but someone else's life. Not that mine is so dramatic... but that's just it. Sometimes other's lives are so much more fun. Or scary, or sad, or whatever... But it's not my life, and so I don't have to think about it too much.
Night rides. There is something about driving/ riding in the night that makes everything so much clearer. And easier. And fun.
Ovens. Especially the microwave kind! ;)
Pictures. There is nothing better then looking back at adventures I've had. Such fun memories.
Quilts. So warm and cuddly. Especially when reading, or watching a movie, or when you find that just right spot when going to sleep.
Rain. It smells good. It's fun to play in (when it's not too cold.) It sounds relaxing. And storms are great to watch! And afterwards, it makes everything pretty.
Spaghetti and sandwiches. Two of my most favorite meals! Yum.
TV. It's where some of my loveliest friends live! ;)
Unicycles. They must make you feel brave and safe all at the same time.
Vacations. Sometimes so needed and necessary. Sometimes fun and necessary. Sometimes not necessary... but what great memories they make!!!
Watermelon. Just cause it's good.
Xylophones. Without them, I would never have been in Marching Band, therefore never had as much fun in High School as I did. Meeting Kristyn. And Heather. And then where would I be today???
You. You obviously must be awesome if you are reading my blog. I mean, you have me for a friend! ;) But really, the majority of you who read my blog mean a lot to me for some reason or another... and I'm very blessed to have so many good people in my life. From all over!
Zzzzzz... I stole it from Melissa, but it's true. Sometimes sleep is the most lovely thing out there. Ahhh.

Top Ten Tuesday
Top Ten Things That Made Me Laugh This Week...
10. Getting a text from Danny and not having a CLUE what he was talking about. (I finally figured it out!)
9. Kitty running all over the wood floor and slipping. (And yet she gets up and keeps running more!)
8. Dancing for Pam and Steve at work, not knowing there was a customer right behind me.
7. Bek Shmek and I leaving very long voicemails for each other. AND giggling about things that were about to happen.
6. Walking down the street and getting "attacked" by a branch outside.
5. The fact that Jonny and I always end our conversations by him getting my car and Kitty. That, and that we really don't agree on anything! ;)
4. Re-reading all the awesome video ideas Jake and I want to make... at 1 o'clock in the morning! (I couldn't sleep last night.)
3. Trevor inhaling the buffet like we only had 5 minutes to eat rather than 5 HOURS!!!
2. The way Sarjane and I say good morning to each other everyday.
1. THE OFFICE!!!! WOO HOO!
