the latest

okay, so it's been a ridiculously long time since i wrote something on my blog. i have no excuse and really haven't been that busy, just been workin and playin and such. it definitely feels like the lazy days of summer to me. so here's the recap of stuff over the past 6 weeks:

~another cousin got married. outside. in june. in south alabama. do i even have to tell you how hot that was? yes, i am the oldest grandchild on that side of the family still not married. only one other cousin on the other side not married, she's 3 months older than me. solidarity, sister, yeah!

~the new show Kyle XY premiered on ABCFamily and is as good as the hype. lovin this new show!

~another new show, Saved on TNT, is BETTER than the hype. and, i do believe Tom Everett Scott is hotter than Matt Dallas. there, i said it. do with it what you will.

~i went to Tunica (finally) for July 4th weekend cause the spa closed on monday and tuesday for the holiday. went with my friend, Clint. a boy, you say? why yes, he is. how adult of me to be taking a trip with a boy, i know. just a friend. promise! otherwise, there would be far more details on the blog ;) he's a good poker player, it was a practical decision. so we went, played lots of poker, up and down with the money, yadda yadda, we had a blast! Clint even taught me a bit about Craps, which is a seriously hard game to understand. he came out up a few bucks overall for the trip. i was down a bit, but, (yes, there is a but...) i have won EVERY cent of it back playing online this week (which i seem to be gettng pretty darn good at, or just lucky). gotta love it!

~just finished reading To Own a Dragon by Donald Miller. very healing book for me. highly recommend it to anyone who's ever had a dysfunctional relationship with their dad. i just love how Don lets us into his world and isn't afraid to say all those little things we've all thought but been afraid to face or say out loud. it's beautiful. i actually made my dad a present for father's day this year, a collage of photos i took on my SC trip. hope he really likes it.

~saw Pirates of the Carribbean: Dead Man's Chest Saturday night in ghetto Rock Star style (dressed up for Christina's b'day celebration). is it just me or does Johnny Depp get sexier with age and black eyeliner? POTC 2 did not disappoint, and may indeed be better than the first! my fav was the clerks dressed up in Pirate gear when I bought my ticket and the girl/pirate who waited on me had a hook and was workin the register with it. now that's impressive! i attempted to steal some of her gold Pirate money on the counter and got an "Aaaarrrrgggghhhhhhh, get your hands off me gold, matey!" out of her. very fun, and I did swipe a gold coin, heh heh!
