8 Things! REALLY?!?

So, I really felt like writing something, but couldn't think of what. Then I remembered that I'd been tagged by one of my friends and fellow bloggers a while back and decided to look it up again to see what it was I was supposed to do. Well, it turns out it was nearly a year ago that I was tagged by Jenn so it's about time I fulfill this obligation. Here it goes...


8 things I'm looking forward to...

My 27th birthday! What?!? It's true. I have some awesome plans for my birthday which include picking up my mom from the airport and going to Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen with about 20+ friends so I can stuff myself with boiled crawfish. YUMMMMM!!!!

Going to see Mary Poppins on stage with my friend Ashlee and my sister and her fam. 4 adults and 4 kids at a matinee showing -- should be a blast!

The new Barenaked Ladies album "All In Good Time". Seriously, if you didn't know by now that I'm a big BNL fan then you've either been living under a rock or haven't been keeping up with my ramblings... possibly both!

Going to Utah. What could possibly be so good about Utah that I'm looking forward to going there again? Well, simply put - Michael Buble! My lil sis Frances and I have tickets to see his Salt Lake City show. I can't wait!!!

Warmer temperatures! Please!!! NO MORE SNOW!!!!!! It's been snowing here in Denver since September and I can't take much more of it!

My next hair appointment... don't know when it will be as of right now, but I'm still looking forward to it. I love my stylist Crystal (she's also my friend so that's a plus) and it's getting to the point where my hair needs to be thinned out a bit.

A date where the guy actually picks me up and drives wherever we're going. I've been on a few more dates than usual lately and, don't get me wrong, I've had a lot of fun. That said, I've also had to drive myself to different destinations to meet up with my last 4 dates which means I drive myself home at the end of the night. Seriously, is it too much to ask for a guy to come to my door, walk with me to his car, drive to the destination, and then walk me back to my door when it's all over? You wouldn't think so, but maybe it is. Oh well, I'll still look forward to that someday.

A full-time job with benefits. I know - now I'm really in dreamland. I'm just getting tired of being yanked around in my part-time jobs and having very little to show for it. It would also be nice if I could go to the doctor or even *gasp* the dentist and not have to pay out the wazoo.


Moving on now...

8 wishes...

Have a guy I'm interested in actually notice me for more than my friendship or sister-ness. In fact, it would be nice if there were a guy that would love me as much as my nephew James does. (Take note any single males out there - you have quite the standard to live up to and here's the proof.)

An endless supply of Blue Bell Ice Cream always in my freezer. (Yes, it's that good!)

The means to travel wherever I want, whenever I want. (Australia and Hawaii are on the list.)

My own, personal library with books from floor to ceiling making necessary the inclusion of those ladders you see in old movies that slide around the room. Also in said library would have to be comfortable seating areas including a nice little window seat.

An endless supply of yarn for my crochet habit (and the time to spend on projects). Other crafting supplies would be nice too, but I'm trying not to be too greedy.

A better understanding of things of a spiritual nature. I can fake my understanding farely well, but I wish I knew more.

A place in the solitude of nature for when I need to get away from everything. I've been thinking lately about going on a search for just such a place. Maybe I should do that... and soon.

For reality to be better than my dreams for a change.

And finally...

If I didn't pick you, don't feel bad. I only had 8 spots. I hope you enjoy this little insite into the inner workings of me.
