The Happiest Day Of My Life

Nine Weeks

According to my little ticker, my baby is already flipping people off. I don't like that. But really it just means he or she has little fingers!!! Yay! I have started feeling better in the mornings and the evenings and in between. I have learned that I have to take my shower at night, because if I shower when I wake up, I get really nauseaus while showering. I have also learned that if I get hungry, I must eat within 30 minutes or my stomach will hurt really bad and then I won't be able to eat anything. My lower stomach is pooching out some. I feel really fat.

I will be glad when the whole wedding thing is over. I'm excited but just anxious because of certain things (people) and I'm afraid someone is going to start problems and not act like an adult. Long story.

Blue Eyes started working on the house again last night (thank God). We are going to use the big, new room as our office. It's going to be a pretty big office, but we decided not to make it our master bedroom, because it will be too far from the baby, and there is not a bathroom on that side of the house. (I get up to pee 3 times a night, so this is important) Once we get done with that room, and I'm hoping it doesn't take too much longer, we will get all of our office stuff out of the room that it's in now, and move it so we can start cleaning and fixing up the baby's room. The hard wood floor needs to be restained in one spot, and there is a spot on the ceiling that needs to be fixed. It will all get done, but I'm just realizing that it's going to come so much faster than we are planning. I bought something for the baby. Already, I know! It's such a cute little pajama set with the booties and hat. The sleeves fold over the baby's hands and it makes a little lamb. Sooo sweet. It's in yellow. But we know we are having a boy. We know it. We should find out in October for sure. I guess I can post the names. It's not a secret or anything. Ok, if it's a boy, and it will be, the name is going to be Braden Cory. Blue Eyes' middle name is Cory and we both really like the name Braden. We are also keeping the "BR" names. Oh sorry, Blue Eyes' real name is Brandon. I'm sure I've said that before, but just in case you are new or something! And if we have a girl it will be Brayleigh Dawn. My middle name is Leigh and my mom's middle name is Dawn.

Well, it's raining outside and my boss isn't here, so I think I'm going to crawl under my desk and take a nap. And here is a picture of what our baby should look like right now, at 9 weeks:He or she is the size of a medium green olive.

Also, do not Google "9 week fetus". Just don't.

Here I am!

Yes, I am still alive!! Kind of.

I have been so tired, and so sick the last couple of weeks. I missed Goodwill Wednesday. Sorry, ladies. But I've also realized that the Goodwill here sucks, so I don't even think it's worth playing anymore. They don't have very good treasures. So, unless I go to Austin where the Goodwill's are "cool", I'm not going to participate.

Now, on to this whole pregnancy thingy. I feel HORRIBLE! I haven't thrown up yet, but I almost wish I would. This is the worst feeling ever! Don't get me wrong, I am so, so happy that I am pregnant. This is something I've wanted since I was little! Is that weird? But really, all I ever wanted when I was little was to be a Mommy. I will put up with all the sickness if it means I get to hold a perfect little baby in March. We went to my appointment last week and got to have another ultrasound. The baby looks like a smashed grape! This is my 7w2d ultrasound:

Aww. Isn't it so cute? I'll be glad when I can tell what it is! We go back August 4, and we should be able to hear the heart beat. I can't wait! They are monitoring my blood pressure and adjusted my medicine for that, so I have to keep that under control.

Blue Eyes and I will become husbee and wifee on August 15 in a very small ceremony. I am looking forward to being Mrs. Blue Eyes! Only, my eyes are green, so, uh, that doesn't really make sense. Oh well!

And I am very sorry for not blogging, or leaving comments. Please understand that it took A LOT for me to write this. Now I need a nap.

XoXo

I Can't Help It!!!!!

So I'm a huge mess of emotions right now. Up until last night, I had only cried once. And that was from looking at picture frames on Babies R Us. It was a really cute one.

Last night, I was in a terrible mood. It's like PMS, only 12 times worse. And I knew I was in a bad mood, but I guess when you are pregnant, you can't help it. I hate being mean to Blue Eyes. After a evening of being in the worse mood of my LIFE, we got ready to go to bed. I always feel nauseous at night, which makes my mood even worse. He already laid down, and I started to and then remembered that I hadn't taken my medicine yet. I got frustrated, mostly with myself, and stood back up,and he was like, "You don't have to be such a grumpy ass."

I lost it.

I stood up, grabbed my medicine, and started crying. In the middle of my cry fest I said, "I can't heeeeelllllllllp ittt!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I walked off towards the kitchen and B.E. told me to come back, but I couldn't. I went in the kitchen to take my medicine but crying hysterically makes that a little bit difficult. When I was finally done, I went and laid down. He asked me if I was done crying. I wanted to cry again, but I didn't. He kissed my cheek and told me he loved me and we went to bed. Then I woke up like every hour.

Uhhh. I really hope tonight is a better night.


How can you make yourself in a better mood when your hormones are going crazy?!?!

Doctor appointment and Goodwill Wednesday are tomorrow!! Don't faaaaa-git!

Unexpected Happiness

I missed Goodwill Wednesday, and for that, I am very sorry. But, my friends, other things have been going on in Breezy's Crazy World, and I think I am ready to share them.

Last Thursday, I went grocery shopping. While shopping, I decided to just pick up a pregnancy test. Since I have polycystic ovaries, my periods are very irregular. So I never know if I'm late or what. When I got home I took said test. Oh. That looks like a faint plus sign, I say to myself. So I say, "Hey Blue Eyes, what does this look like to you?" Blue Eyes responds with, "It looks like a plus sign." I said, "Yea, that's kind of what I thought too." He told me to go get another test and so off to the store I went. I came back with two more, which, would also be positive. The next day I called my OB's office and talked to my nurse. She said there was no need to come in for blood work, if I had taken 3 tests and they were all positive. She set me up with my first appointment, and transferred me to the billing department where I almost had a heart attack when they told me how much we had to pay.

"$430.50 a month for 6 months, and your first payment is due on Wednesday, June 24, when you come in for your first appointment."

Holy geesus. When I told Blue Eyes he didn't understand why we had to pay so much whenI have insurance. I explained to him that I hadn't met my deductible, and that is why. Fortunatley, I am able to change my insurance because of open enrollment, so all of my other payments will be much, much lower. We were so glad to hear that.

I went to my parents' house this weekend for our family reunion and Father's Day, and Blue Eyes stayed home so he could spend time with his Dad. I had been home for about an hour when I just blurted it out.

"I'm pregnant."

My Mom started jumping up and down, she was so excited. My Dad just stared at me.

Blue Eyes has been paying on an engagement ring for me since January, and we were going to go to Vegas in December to get married. We aren't engaged yet, but I knew about the ring and I knew he was going to ask me sometime this summer. We are doing everything backwards, obviously. So we are planning on getting married in August, at his Dad's home. It will just be our immediate family. He still has to propose to me though, of course!!

I went to the Doctor yesterday for my first ultrasound and the nurse couldn't see anything. I was really disappointed, because that was my main fear, not being able to see anything! She said she thought I was probably not very far along and sent me to get blood work done. I will go back Friday to get the second round of blood work to make sure my numbers are going up. Also, tonight I will start taking progesterone because that level was at a 12.1 and they want it over 20.

Please, if you pray, pray for us. I honestly never thought I could get pregnant because of the PCOS and now I am terrified. I'm not terrified to be a Mom, I just don't want anything happening to this baby. Pray that my numbers have doubled or tripled when I go back tomorrow please! We are so happy and cannot wait to start this life together.

Oh yea, I also felt it was necessary to take 7 tests. They were all positive. I just wanted to make sure!!!

And?!?! The nurse also said it looked like I had released a bunch of eggs at once, so, uh, yea. Twins anyone?? Triplets??

A Special Lunch Date

Blue Eyes is working out of town today so I had to eat lunch alone. Well, I thought I was going to eat alone.

I went to Sonic (healthy! nom, nom nom!) and then to the park to eat at a picnic table, alone. I felt like such a laaahoooosur. As I was sitting there, enjoying my tater toots (not a typo), all the little prairie dogs started coming over to me. "I'll just give that one a tater toot." I thought to myself. Or I probably said it out loud, because I tend to talk to myself when I'm alone. This little guy could NOT just eat one! He kept begging for more. He would stand on his legs and rub his hands together. It sort of scared me. It was the same one that kept coming to me. He was getting so close that I was a little bit nervous. The other ones were staying far away.

I named the one that kept coming to me Charlie.

We have another date Monday at noon. I can't wait.


Charlie, eating a toot.


Charlie, (I think, not sure, because they all look alike) eating some bread. Nom, nom, nom.

And in this picture, Charlie is telling me to call him. "Yo, uhh, Breezy, don't furrr-get to calls me."

Goodwill Wednesday-Edition 2

Oh you lucky devils.

Today, on the second edition of Goodwill Wednesday, you get a two-fer-one, AND you get to see Blue Eyes looking his best.

This trip to Goodwill was much better than the first trip. I found two excellent treasures that I HAD to share with you. I don't know what was going through whoever's mind when they dropped these items off, because as you will see in a hot minute, they are to.die.for.

(please ignore his strange facial expressions. It's the only way I could get him to model my treasures)

OK.....for your viewing pleasure I give you:

The fashionable, head warming, rabbit fur-hat-thingy:
Wow. Just wow. I'm not sure what's worse. The hat. Or the face he's making. Can I drop HIM off at Goodwill? Just sayin.

Secondly, my Blue Eyes is modeling the most professional looking Fred Flintstone tie I have ever seen. Ever.
Just so you can see what the whole "outfit" looks like.....and yes, it is now his favorite outfit.....
There you go peeps. Your second edition of Goodwill Wednesdays.

And, don't forget to visit The Two Twins to see what kind of awesome they found this week!!

Happy Hump Day Yall!!!

Embarrass Yourself Friday

I'm so glad today is Friday. This has been a long week. I think I say that every Friday but that's only because I mean it.

It was 106 yesterday. It was miserable! We made hamburgers on the grill and then stayed inside all night. I don't think our air conditioner ever turned off. I wasn't feeling very good and fell asleep on the couch. Around 10, B.E. woke me up and we went to bed. I was kind of out of it all night. I kept waking up and falling back asleep. Blue Eyes is known for talking in his sleep and saying some pretty funny things. I can't even believe what I'm about to share, but I'm not calling this post Embarrass Yourself Friday for nothing.

At one point he woke up (at least I thought he was awake) and goes, "Are you ok?" I said, "Yes, I'm fine." Then he grabbed my hand and put it on his *blush* man parts and says, "This is how you make it's heart stop." I just laid there and was like, "Uhh, hahaa??!?!!" Then he said, "I love you."

I told him about it this morning and he could not stop laughing. He didn't remember it at all.

I was putting my shoes on when he came in the bedroom and looked at me, and got really close and then goes, "Hold still" like he was going to get something off my face. He got closer and closer and then I'm like "OUCCCCCHHHHHH!!!!!!!" He pulled a hair on my face. He thought it was just a hair that landed on my face. It was attached. It freaking hurt! Just so you know, I'm not all gross or anything! It was a little hair and it was BLONDE thank you very much. The light was hitting it just perfect and that's why he could see it!!! I plucked it out. It still embarrassed me! It really hurt too!

Have a great weekend!!!!

Goodwill Wednesday-Edition 1

Welcome friends!!

Today brings the first edition of Goodwill Wednesday! Every Wednesday, (until I get tired of going there, because eww and yuck) I will be presenting you with my newest treasure that I have added to mine and Blue Eyes' home decor. He is totally thrilled by the way. Anyone catch that sarcasm? Anyone?

My lovely ladies over at The Two Twins are joining me on this, so after you read all about my awesome treasure, don't forget to go over there and check their's out!!

Ok, on with the show!!

As soon as I walked in to Goodwill, I noticed how many people were there! My gosh. It was like a 50% off sale at Bloomingdales was going on. I moseyed on back to the "knick knacks", if you will, and was very disappointed with my findings. If this is how it's going to be every time I go, I will have to resort to buying cheap, disgusting, tacky heels that they were offering in the "shoe section".

I walked around for about 5 minutes and then I saw it. I've really been wanting a little something to go with our neutral colored living room to spice things up and when I saw this guy, I could NOT pass it up.

Ladies and Gents, I give you,

The freaky looking lamb thing with cock-eyed eyes candle:

Perhaps my favorite thing about this little treasure is the dirt all over his face. It really gives it that special touch, don't you think?

Can I be honest here? My insides were so happy that this little fella was going to be all mine for only 39cents. I mean, what a BARGAIN, right? I'm just glad I got there when I did, because who knows how much longer he would have been available!

I'm thinking about putting him on Blue Eyes' night stand and lighting it. Can you imagine waking up to those eyes?

And just for the record, when B.E. found out what I was doing, he said, very nicely, "You are retarded."

Aww...love.....

Well, that's it for now. Come back next Wednesday and see what God awful piece of crap treasure I can find!!

Vending Machine Repair Lady

My job requires me to do quite a few different things. I schedule appointments for Internet installs, fixes and disconnects. I turn you off if you don't pay. I send you a bill for the equipment if you don't return it.

I'm in control of the vending machine.

......

Yea. Just take a moment to let that sink in. Ok. Done? You should be.

I'm just going to go ahead and say, that the vending machine, yea, it's the hardest part of my job. I HATE that vending machine with a PASSION. It's a piece of junk (which is why I finally talked my boss into letting me order a new, improved RED one! It's pretty!) Anyway, where was I? Ahh, yes, the vending machine from hell. It is the biggest pile of crap I have ever had the pleasure of working with. It leaks water like a mofo. The manufacture said it's "because we live in Texas, and it's humid." What-ev-uhhh dooode. The machine isn't outside! It takes money and doesn't give you your snack and the cans get stuck and then they explode, leaving me a mess to clean up. I have to get up at least 8 times a day to help someone with it. We are loosing money now because no body trusts it. I have to think of some better items to put in the new machine, so I can gain their trust back!Yea, that should do it.

I am so glad I get to order a new one today! Maybe I won't have to deal with it as much! The only fun part is going to Sam's to buy all the stuff for it. That's fun. Because it's not my money.

Day 1 of my diet went good yesterday. Until dinner. Blue Eyes just HAD to make jalapenos on the grill. The peppers, I can eat. The bacon, yea, not so "allowed" unless it was turkey bacon and of course it was not. I also messed up because I ate a "no added sugar" Popsicle and it was supposed to be "sugar free". Dammit with all the technicalities. I still managed to lose half a pound. Yes, I'm counting half pounds.

I made a yummy breakfast this morning. Scrambled eggs with chives OH MY! Sorry. And I gulped down another V8 (is that not the smallest bowl of eggs you've ever seen?). I swear I can feel the V8 coming back up my throat while I'm drinking it. I hope I don't screw everything up this weekend!

Here's to thinking positive!

Thank You!

First of all, thank yall so, so much for the nice comments that were left on my post yesterday. Even though I don't personally know most of yall, it still meant a lot to me.

My Mom is going to be ok! Her Doctor wanted her to come in yesterday, and he told her it was not a "bad" tumor and it looked liked she has had it for awhile. He said something about blood vessels forming.....I'm really not sure. I just know that she is going to be ok. I was really worried and I know she was too, so I'm very thankful that she got some good news. So thank yall again for the prayers and positive thoughts that were sent!

I started my diet today. So far, it's going good. I mean, it's only 10am, but still, I'm doing good! This morning for breakfast I ate 2 hard boiled eggs and I drank a hot and spicy V8. I'm not a big fan of V8. It is so thick and it's really hard to swallow, but at least I got a full serving of vegetables at breakfast! Hopefully, I will learn to love it. I have to really plan all my meals and snacks the night before so I'm not sure I really like the time that took me last night, but I think it will be worth it.

Blue Eyes and I went and played tennis last night. We stayed for approximately 7 minutes. A tennis player, he is not. I wish I knew someone here that played tennis. I think it was his goal to be as bad as he possibly could be, so that I would stop asking him to play with me. Sneaky.

OH the thing, from the other day, that I couldn't tell yet? I had a job interview for a company that I've been wanting to work at for awhile. She said she would call me for a 2nd interview, but she hasn't yet, and now I'm not excited about it anymore. Oh well. Something will come along.

And lastly, my girls over at The Two Twins and I will be starting something next Wednesday we would like to call, Goodwill Wednesday. We will be purchasing treasures from the wonderful place known as Goodwill, and posting pictures of them for your viewing pleasure. Just in case you don't know what can be found at Goodwill, you will after next Wednesday. And what's so fun is that we will be able to see the different treasures from Texas and Pennsylvania! This should be interesting. I am also planning on selling all my treasures on here, so be sure you place a bid, because I have a feeling you are not going to want to miss out on the awesomeness that I will be selling!

Have a great Thursday!

Where Have I Been?

Oh wow.

Over 1 week.

I have been really busy with work and really busy at home and I haven't really even had time to read blogs let alone take the time to write in my own. Blue Eyes and I have been going to the lake the last couple of weekends to fish and hang out. Last weekend we were on the lake for 7 hours. I caught a small fish. That is all. He caught a sunburn. It was still fun though.

I'm still getting headaches almost everyday, so that's not fun. I just keep taking my medicine though and hope that I'm not destroying my liver in the process.

Something happened this morning and I'm excited about it, but I can't say what it is. Not yet. Maybe in a few days I can. Ewww....ahhhh.....the suspense is killing you, I know it!

I'm starting the South Beach Diet Thursday. Wicked has inspired me, and it's going to work for me, I know it. So tomorrow when I get paid, I will go buy all healthy groceries and I will keep yall updated on how it's working for me. I'm still doing my at home exercises (sometimes). I have a really, really cute pair of jeans that I bought 2 years ago, that still have the tags on them, because I swore to myself THEN that I would wear them. I didn't think it would be this long. They are a size 9. I'm not telling what I wear now, but I will say, it's not a size 9.

Oh look. It's only 10am. Crap.

Friday! Friday! Friday!

I'm so glad today is Friday and we have a 3 day weekend! Yes! Yes! Yes! I haven't been feeling too great this entire week, so I'm really needing this little break. We don't have a lot of plans for the long weekend. I think we are just going to take our little fishing boat out on the lake and try and catch us some dinner. Not really. But yes.

I hope everyone has a great long weekend!!



Weeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!

Weekend Review...And Away We Gooooo

This weekend was full of the following:

*Pizza, beer and falling asleep between 6pm-8pm on a Friday night
*Movies
*Sanding my finger nail off
*Really white ass cracks
*Eating candy for dinner
*Realizing bikes were not meant for vagina's

I know after reading that preview, you are dying to hear about it allllll!!!! So, on with the show!

Friday night, Blue Eyes and I were both so stressed out from work. Because of that one Nasty McNasterson (who, btw, quit over the weekend. pink eye my ass, mister), it made both of our jobs that much harder on Friday. Needless to say, beer and pizza were in the plans for our Friday night. The pizza was grrrreat, thank you Mister Papa John. Unfortunately, the only thing Mister Keystone did for us was make us very, very sleepy. We each drank one beer. (well, i wasted 2 beers because the mug i poured my first one into stunk like shrimp from the freezer) So I DRANK only 1. B.E. said he really needed to take a rest on the couch and I decided it was going to be a great time for me to redesign my bloggy blog. I sat down at my computer with said beer in hand, and sat there, and sat there, and sat there. Just staring at the screen. I want something so cute and so different, but I couldn't come up with anything. Around 8pm, I went and laid on the bed. At 10:30 I was awoken to a kiss and a hug. Apparently we had both fallen asleep between 6-8. Friday night FAIL.

Saturday we planned on working on the house some more. Yay. I got to sand some more of the wall. I sanded too far and off went the tip of my finger nail. See, this is why I don't like helping, I always get an injury! We didn't work too much on the house, so we decided to watch a movie, which turned into 3 movies on Saturday. We watched Taken(excellent), Twilight (awesome) and My Bloody Valentine (suck). It was nice and relaxing.

We spent most of Sunday doing laundry and cleaning up. We realized after eating our cream of wheat that we were very low on groceries. We don't get paid until Wednesday! Yikes. So we did what any responsible adult would do. We went and sold our DVD's that we don't watch to Hastings so that we could score us some snacks. $16.48 later, we went to Wal-Mart where we purchased cheese dip, pringles (pickle flavor, yum!) and candy. This is what we ate for dinner Sunday night. (don't feel sorry for us, i could have made sloppy josephs if i wanted to). After we ate our deee-lish dinner and watched Marley and Me (ohmygawd i was bawling), we went for a bike ride. I'll just go ahead and say that I'm pretty out of shape. BUT, what makes it even worse, is when you are riding behind your boyfriend, who doesn't care what anyone thinks about him, is showing crack for the entire world to see. Every.single.time we ride bikes, his ass crack is showing. I'm like, "OMG B.E. pull up your pants/pull down your shirt", while I'm laughing hysterically as another car passes us. Laughing while riding bikes WHILE you are out of shape is no easy task. He wouldn't because, again, that's B.E. and he does not care who sees his booty.

Also, there is no way that God ever intended bikes for a vagina. Not.at.all.

Just sayin'.

My Current Annoyance: Nasty McNasterson

Can I just say, thank Baaaajeeeesus it's Friday? No? I said it anyway. I have only worked 4 days this week but it feels like I've been working 9 straight days. This guy I work with, we'll call him Nasty McNasterson, has called in two days in a row with pink eye. First of all, ewww, pink eye is so gross and second, he is such a winey bag baby and he is 40 years old. What really gets my blood pressure boiling is that he has the nerve to be all like, "I don't know what the big deal is. Pink eye isn't that bad. I don't see why everyone is making a big deal out of it." And I'm like, well, Nasty McNasterson, it is so gross because you keep getting it and I'm starting to think you need to be careful while wiping your McNasty butt when you poo because apparently some poo particles are getting on your finger and into your McNasty eye." If I keep talking about it, it will turn into an entire post on poo and I'm not sure anyone can handle that right now.
Anymcnasty, I watched Grey's last night. Ohmygawd it was so gooood! I cannot believe I have to wait until the fall to find out what happens! I let myself get really into this show, because it really is the only one I watch, so I feel that it's ok. B.E. actually watched it with me! We rarely watch TV, so it was something different for us. He worked on the room some more last night. I "accidentally" had already showered, so I couldn't help him. What? The dishwasher was already empty!


This weekend we will be doing more remodeling (YEEHAW) and just hanging out at La casa de Boshears. Crap. I said his last name. Isn't it such a cute name though. Briana Boshears. Say it with me now, "AWWWWW".

Have a great weekend peeps!!

Not My Idea Of Fun. Nope. Not Even Close

We started working on the house again yesterday. ohmygawditsucks.

When B.E. first moved in, he started converting the garage into a third bedroom. Well, he got bored with that and stopped for about 7 months. Let's just say he likes to have several projects going on at once.

Examples: The room is not complete, half of the kitchen floor is redone, half of the kitchen cabinets are redone, most of the laundry room is done.

One day I know the house is going to look so nice, but until then, it's really frustrating. Anyhooters...we aren't sure if we want to stay in San Angelo or not so we were talking yesterday about East Texas, and there are several job openings there with a company he would like to work for. I told him that I wouldn't mind moving there, and that's when he decided we have to "finish the house fast" so that we can sell it and get as much as we possibly can for it. I thought maybe he meant, let's start this weekend. No. We started as soon as we got home from work. And by "we", I really mean, "him", and "I" just stood there watching, holding this and that for him. I lied, I got to sand a wall. Whooo, talk about a HOOT. I asked if I could put a little bit of the mud stuff on the wall that he was slapping on. He looked at me, then looked at the wall, then back at me and said, "Uhh...how about I do it? You can fill in some holes later." Pfft. Whatever Blue Eyes. See if I ever offer to help you again.

While I was sanding, he kept saying, "No, do it at an angle. NO! You don't have to press so hard. Really easy, that's all it takes." I was like, "OMG, do you want me to help you or not?" That's exactly what he did to me when we were painting. I wanted to say, "SHUT IT, or I'm not helping you."

AND what is it with guys wearing their nice jeans and shoes to do EVERYTHING in? We bought B.E. some nice shoes back in March, and wow. They look like he just went and got them from Goodwill. Yesterday, instead of letting the mud hit the floor, what did he do? Oh, he stuck his leg out and caught the mud on his shoes. Awesome. Those shoes look sccchhhhexy baby. And his jeans. He has 3 old pairs of jeans that are torn, have an ink stain on them (that I may or may not have done by washing a load of clothes with an ink pen), and a pair with paint all over them. Now, why, oh why, would he not wear those instead of his new jeans we JUST got him? I don't get it. Boys are so dumb.

I really want the house to be done, but can't we just hire someone? It's soooo boring. I even got out of it for a little while by unloading the dishwasher! I hate unloading the dishwasher!

Ohhh, this should be a fun couple of weeks. Or months. Crap. I don't know how long this is going to take. Maybe I should get a second job so I'm not at home. Hmmmm. Anyway, I am going to lose my mind.

Vaca 2009....Warning: Picture Overload

Our trip started out earlier than planned. We weren't supposed to leave until early Friday morning, but we decided that we needed to get outta town Thursday night. So, we called our hotel that we had reservations at for Friday night and asked if we could come a day early. This ended up being the most disgusting hotel ever. I take that back. The pool was nice.

So anyhooters....our hotel was right across the street from the new Cowboys' Stadium. OMG. It is soooo huge! I seriously could not stop staring at it! It was like a ginormous UFO. Riiiily.
Speaking of ginormous things, please ignore Blue Eyes' hand in the picture. Ok, so that was the view from our hotel. (It was in the ghetto.)

B.E. doesn't even like football, but he was so impressed with the stadium, he started doing some research on it. Here he is, on his lap top ssschecking it out:
I did not get any sleep the first night we were there. The bed was so uncomfortable and tiny and Blue Eyes likes to basically sleep on top of me (him's is a snuggla). In the middle of the night, I got that horrible pain in my kidney. The pain like someone is stabbing you in the back. OUCH. It hurt so bad. I waited for it to get light outside(we were not in the best/safest parts of the world) and I walked over to the gas station to get some cranberry juice (because my momma swears it cures that pain). I grabbed two bottles, determined to chug them both on an empty stomach so that I would feel better for the day ahead of us at Six Flags. I stayed outside for a little while because I didn't want to wake B.E. up. I drank two sips of the first bottle.

Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle, said my tummy. You know that feeling you get right before you RALPH? I got it. I went back to the room and sat on the edge of the bathtub. My mouth was a-waterin'. Oh, please no. Please no! I kept telling myself this over and over. BLAHHHH. Myself did not feel like listening to myself on this Friday morning. I threw up that cranberry juice. That is ALL I had in my stomach. But did my stomach care? No. It wanted to throw up some more just to make sure there really was nothing left in there. Because I have no brain whatsoever, I took my headache medicine. On.an.empty.stomach. The bottle even warns you of not doing this. I was feeling rebellious. I woke B.E. up and told him I was going to find a Wal-Mart to get some medicine for my aching kidney. He offered to drive me but I told him to stay in bed. I got out to the car and I guess that medicine didn't want to go to Wal-Mart with me, because I threw it up all over the parking lot. This was, by far, the worst tasting substance I have ever had in my mouth. It tasted like poison. Oh gawd, I can't even think about it right now without gagging. (lesson learned- when the medicine bottle says, take with meals, DO IT)

Moving right along. I felt so much better after Blue Eyes went downstairs and got me a muffin. I took my shower and we went and had a quick lunch before Six Flags opened. On our way to Six Flags, I thought it would be the perfect time for a photo shoot.
I knew it was time to put the camera away when he made this face. I was so mad at him but now that I look at it again I'm laughing!!

There was a private party going on and the park didn't open until 2pm for the public. We paid for parking and sat in the car for about 30 minutes. Blue Eyes decided it was a good time to take a kitty cat nap.
Meow.

We already had our tickets printed out, so around 12:30 we walked up to the gate just to see what they would do, and the nice little lady let us in!!! We got to go in early and there were nooo lines! It was awesome. We rode the Titan as soon as we got in. I was so scared at first, and I have no idea why. I have never been afraid of roller coasters. Maybe I'm getting old. Eww. B.E. insisted that I leave my hands up the entire time. It actually did make it a little more fun. We ended up riding the Titan 3 times. I think this picture shows exactly how much fun it was.
I look like such a tard. Oh well, it was FUN!

More pictures from our day at Six Flags:
We rode these little cars around a race track, and I laughed the entire time! We were the only two on the race track and I loved it! I took a picture of myself right before we got in the cars, just in case I wrecked mine, it would be the last picture of yours truly.
Waiting in line for another ride, I snapped another picture of my other half.
I love him so much.

Oh, sorry, got a little distracted. Towards the end of the day, we were both hot and sweaty and tired of walking around so we decided to go ahead and head back to the ghetto. We took quick showers and then made our way to HOOTAHS, which really just means, another photo shoot.
He would not make a serious face. Jerk.
Finally!!
And Breezy needed a picture too!!

In the middle of our wing eating festivities, this piece of work walked in to Hootahs and we totally lost it. I don't know if it was the sun from the day, or the ice cold beers we had just consumed, but, ohmygodwow.
That was some awesome hair if I've ever seen awesome hair. And I have. I look in the mirror everyday.

We tried to get a few more shots of us after we left. FAIL.
The next morning, we were planning on getting up and driving to Longview to have lunch with Blue Eyes' friend. We made our way East. The drive was beautiful.
Right after we got honked at, and flipped off by a truck driver, Biggie came on. Prepare yourself for gangsta pose in 3, 2, 1.....
I'm so embarrassed of that. Not really.

We got to Longview and ate lunch. Lucky for you, I didn't take any pictures. After lunch, we were on our way to our final destination. Bossier City!! It was a pretty quick drive. Our hotel was so nice! The rooms were really tropical looking. I knew it would be hard to describe the room, so I took some pictures.
It didn't take us long to make our way to the casino. Along with the slot machines, came free beer, which means, more pictures.
While playing the slots, B.E. hit the jackpot. BUT. He didn't win it, because he wasn't betting the max. It was for $300.00, which really would have been nice to blow. He was so upset! The ladies next to him were mad because apparently, it takes a long time for that jackpot to come back around! HA. Whatever, we were just having fun ladies!!

It got really warm inside the casino, so we decided to go outside on the deck. Photo shoot number 4,715, coming up.
We really should have asked someone to take a decent picture of us. But, that's how we roll.

We went to dinner in the lobby, where they had a buffet of sea food. I promised myself after eating, that I would not eat for the rest of the week. We got our $50.00 worth, that's all I'm saying.

Blue Eyes took another kitty cat nap. Lazy.
Not really!!! He never had Glamour Shots taken when he was younger, and he was feeling sad about that, so we set up a shoot in the hotel room. We are having it enlarged and hanging it over our fire place. Kidding! We don't have a fire place.

After dinner, we went back down to the casino and spent the rest of our gambling money. By this time, we were both tired, full, and had drank a little too many free beers.
Well, apparently he didn't get full enough, because he tried to eat my face off.
Ugh. I got way too much sun.

We were in our room by 10pm. We checked out the jacuzzi (niiice) and then went to bed by midnight. Around 1am, I was awoken to the loudest, most obnoxious voices my ears have ever heard. The people in the connecting room were screaming and running in their room. I was so annoyed. I laid there and listened to it for awhile, hoping Blue Eyes wouldn't wake up, because if he did, he would want to beat someones hiney. Well, he woke up. He banged on the connecting door, and they shut up for about 4 minutes. I was then forced to call the front desk. They sent someone from security to the room, and they were quiet for about 20 minutes. Around 2am, they started again, and B.E. threw his covers off, and said, "Let's go." Let me remind you, we were 7 hours from home. We left. We made it inside of Texas and had to stop at a roadside park and sleep. I woke up in the shape of a pretzel 3 hours later, and off we drove.

We did manage to get a free night out of the hotel, which means we will be going back hopefully soon. So. You already know what that means.

More pictures coming soon of Vacay #2!!!

Yay!
