Between jacked up sleeping patterns and these darn chairs from training all week, I have officially messed up my back. It just hurts! All I can think of is the Hot Pockets portion of Jim Gaffigan where he talks about eating Hot Pockets and his back hurting afterward. oh man, it is hilarious! I'll see if I can find it on YouTube......
Found it!
In other news, I'm watching Grey's Anatomy right now, and I cannot physically stomach seeing them cut open anything, and haven't been able to do so for the last 2 weeks. Oh it is just yucky.
I also don't think we're going to get any Trick-Or-Treaters tonight. That makes me a bit sad. What happened to the extreme trick or treating of going out at 6pm, and not coming home til 9pm with mounds, and mounds of candy, and seeing EVERYONE in the nieghborhood out and about. Have people and their houses really seriously gotten that scary? I"M NOT scary! Just a little bit spaz.
Drew says hi.

Blog Spew
I seem to get spurts of time on the computer, and find extremely random things to do while I'm online. Today I went to one of my favorite sites to oogle at wall decals. This website has Super Mario Bros. wall decals, so you can pretend you're in a VIDEO GAME!!!!
I want it so bad. I can't justify $75 on something like that though! Besides, where would I put such awesomeness?!!? Drew would NEVER let me put it in the bedroom! Treadmill's room? Nah....gotta leave that for the Fire Brigade!
I think eventually though, when we do have babies, I'll get the restickable decals of Alphabet Zoo!
Tonight, I drank a cup of apple cider, ate a cupcake, and had some whipping cream...ohohoh, and some cotton candy from Farmer's Market today. HAHAHA I feel all sugared up, and ready for bed! I'm going to go put the new sheets on the bed and snuggle in and watch some random movie til I pass out (I think Ratatouille is in there right now!)
**And remember, if it's clear and yella, you've got juice there fella, if it's tangy and brown, you're in cider town!**
I want to note that I made vanilla cuppycakes with vanilla icing, no sprinkles - tomorrow once theyve cooled, but not tonight, and no cherries. I just found the one with the cherry on top because it reminded me of Mr. Bean and how he had that cuppycake with the cherry on top and I like that episode a lot!
I also have this awesome cuppycake book on how to decorate them all crazy like. Maybe I'll post some pictures of that later.

My Pets
Michele posted a picture of my bunnies I used to have and it made me think of all my pets. I miss them all so very much, so I'm going to post pretty pictures of them :)
These were my crabs. I had crabs. LOL They died suddenly one day, I don't even know how....
Oh man, the Lexy rolling in the hallway at our old condo, I love her! She isn't dead yet.
I apologize for the bad picture. I didn't have a ton of pictures of "her" My chameleon's name was Freckles. I loved her. Lexy thought she was a toy and swung her around and flipped her into the air. Poor Freckles.
This was my fish named "PH" /f/ cause that's all he could say in the water. PH even ventured the 800+ miles with us up to Oregon before he kicked the bucket on Mother's Day 1.5 years ago. So sad. He lived for a couple years though!
OK, well this isn't a pet, but this was a snow storm down in Utah a few years ago and fell upon it and had to post the reason I don't want to live there anymore. :)
This was just Lexy hanging out in the bunny habitat. She loved it more than the bunnies!
Awwwwww!!! Sweet Ben and Bug!!!!!! We had to give them away because Drew and I were both too alergic to them. :(
This was Sparkles. I loved him. I don't remember how he died!
Picabo and Tomba- these guys are still alive and live at my mom's house. I miss them and love them sooooo much!
I know this is mostly a Lexy post apparently, BUT you have to love this picture. She was OBSESSED with that tree/tree skirt.
I'm sorry I don't have pictures of my hamsters. Mom, do you have a picture of Pubes hanging out in the train that goes around the tree at Christmas?? That's my favorite picture in the entire world! Or Saber with walnuts and frozen peas in her pouches? Do we even have any pictures of them?
I also had a goldfish named Bart. He was so big that he ate my neon tetras for snacks. My cousin Jen flushed him down the toilet for me. :)
Oh yeah! We had a water turtle one time, too. And another bunny. And 2 cockatiels(don't know how to spell that!), and 3 parakeets! hehehe It's like I lived on a farm!

Grace Weston
I was looking for some pictures earlier today on Google and stumbled across what might be one of my new favorite artists. Grace Weston. Not only is her art work clean/crisp/and direct, but she also lives in Portland!
Here are some of my favorites that I've found on her website: (Oh, and a thank you to the websites I found them from!)
I'll admit, a bit morbid on these first two, but also hilarious!
Teefers!
I adore this one!
Loves it

Sean Kingston
I've decided that I am in LOVE with Sean Kingston. Yeah, he's barely legal, but who cares? I am loving his Jamaican accent, and his ability to flip lyrics from crap like Led Zeppelin into awesome songs! And those cheeks! Just wanna pinch them!!!!!
Alright, gunna go clean up the insulation and dry wall from the light/fan combos Drew just put in so we can venture back to Lowe's to buy more white paint- cause I ran out and need to paint the closet doors, and do the touch up from throwing up the moulding. Loves it.

I don't have any cool news. My leg isn't acting up today, but I also haven't exercised. I'm kind of wanting to, but also realize the repercussions of doing so, and I'm not sure if I want those, either.
I've been contemplating redownloading photoshop, but I've been too lazy to find the "right" one. ;)
I made a cheesecake today. It looks a bit questionable. I haven't tried it yet.
I don't really feel like the whole work game tomorrow. I do get Friday "off" though- I am starting GLAD training, so I have that the 17th, 24th, 28th, 29th, 30th, 31st. So that should be informative and interesting!

The Transformation
I've been watching Harry Potter all afternoon and have some thoughts. Now, let me explain my thoughts. In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, we are introduced to Cedric Diggory. Cedic then goes through the Triwizard Tournament with Harry, resulting in some unfortunate circumstances.
We then find out that Cedric Diggory aka Edward Cullen now lives in Forks, and it interested in Bella Swan. People are thinking these are TWO separate people, when they most decidedly ARE NOT.
Cedric Diggory and Edward Cullen are the SAME EXACT PERSON! Let me tell you how it happend.
Voldymort told his lackies to kill "Cedric" when in reality, they just stunned him severely. Harry does his cool wizard skills, and brings Cedric back. Everyone is all wiggin out, thinking Cedric is dead, and all the shinanagans start! Mr. Diggory realizes that his son, Cedric isn't REALLY dead, but SOMETHING severe has happened to him. Mr. Diggory and his wife head off to the best hospital they can find in Chicago. Since they have to travel so far, they decide to aparate with Cedric's body.
Since Mr. Diggory took his son, Dumbledore decides to continue on with a funeral anyway. In Dumbledores eyes, Mr. is dillusional, and it's just a matter of time before Cedric dies. Dumbledore might as well get the truth out as quickly as he can- the pressing matter is Voldemort, not whether or not Cedic is going to live through the night.
So anyway, Diggory's are now in Chicago. They had heard from a squib that this was the best hospital in the world, and that there was a certain doctor that had heard of wizards before and had performed surgery on them before. Surprisingly, Cedric still hasn't died, but is in a coma like state, and in critical condition.
After a few months, Cedric's parents catch some kind of incurable virus and quickly die; leaving Cedric alone, at the hospital. This caring doctor realizes that Cedric is a very special person, being a wizard and all, and continues to watch him closely, since Cedric now has no blood relations. As time goes by, Cedric begins to come around from the spell that the lackies cast on him, but is plagued by some kind of disease that is threatening his life. As Cedric becomes conscious, Dr. Cullen, this kind and generious doctor that has watched over him like a son, begins to ask him of his past life. Miraculously, Cedric doesn't remember any of his wizarding world.
Quite quickly and suddenly, Cedric begins to suffer from this disease he has obtained, and is on the verge of death. Dr. Cullen, realizing the importance to keep this person alive, then turns him into a vampire. The transformation happens, and Cedric realizes that he doesn't want to continue to be called Cedric because of the loss of his parents, and former life. He then takes upon the name of Edward Cullen, and lives out a very interesting, very busy life in various states and countries for the rest of his life! AND that my friends, you can read about in the Twilight books. :)
Now keep in mind, the two pictures. The ONLY reason they look different is because of the vampire transformation. It obviously thinned out his eyebrows, "Edward" gave himself a new hair do, and he's pale- (because he's a vampire, duh)
So there you have it. Cedric Diggory = Edward Cullen, IN THE FLESH!

Whoops
Well, I totally jacked up my profile. I went to change the background, apparently did it in the wrong place, and had to redo all my side gadgets. Which is fine, but time consuming. If I've forgotten someone, I'm sorry, just let me know, or I'll figure it out eventually. If you'd like me to add you, let me know as well.
I did find some cool side gadgets to put on since I hadn't looked through those in a little while. I sure hope my template won't get messed up again when I change it in a month. I guess it'll be a sad day if it does. I might not do as much to fix it. I'm not happy with it right now, but all my pictures are on my external harddrive on the end table, and I don't feel like going to get it, looking through the files to find the right ones, and posting them. So this is going to do.
I went to a bridal shower today. It was thoroughly entertaining. I'm awaiting the pictures I took on Rachael's camera to post them. I was too lazy to pull out my own camera. I have a couple, but once again, the camera isn't right by me, so I'm not going to upload them onto the computer yet.
I'm excited for my Salvador Dali daily postings. I love that guy

Bats, Physical Therapy and Dune
I just spent an hour on PowerPoint making the most awesome BAT powerpoint the world has EVER seen. I went to add pictures, and it CRASHED!!! I hadn't saved it at all. What was I thinking! I am the master of saving things, and then, the ONE time, I don't save, it crashes. Why did it crash?!!? GAH! Guess I know what I'm going to be doing during Conference on SUNDAY!
I went to physical therapy today. The physical therapist says I have tendonitis throughout my right thigh, and bursitis in my hip. I apparently have a lot to work on. The PT said that my arch collapses when I run, and showed me how it does it, which was kind of amazing how easily he was able to show me- pretty cool stuff. So he proceeded to deep tissue massage it, ice it, and stretch it. I'm all bruised up now because of my anemia, and my leg is killing me.
I asked him what exercise I can do since I can't run. He said I can try biking, but that it'll probably hurt. He said I CANNOT rollerblade. He said I can swim, as long as it doesn't hurt- but swimming is so expensive. I'm going to look into it though since I got my raise. I just feel so out of my element. I'm always walking or running. What am I going to do without it?
Funny thing though, while I was there, I found out that one of the mom's of the kids at school works there. I ended up talking to her for 15 minutes, and as I'm leaving, another teacher in the building showed up for the same exact problem! hahaha So we chatted as well. I thought it was pretty entertaining.
I also wanted to discuss Dune.
(STING is the only redeeming factor in that entire movie)- and those panties!
Dune is THE worst movie ever made. Hands down. Stupid, stupid, stupid. I cannot believe I spent 34 hours watching that wretched thing. What is it? Spice? I'm really into nutmeg myself! And what's with the eyes? Seriously. What got into me? Yet for some reason, I was totally into it. AND, is it just me, or is it completely phallic? Yeah, someone was tripping on some bad acid. That's all I gotta say.
So now the PT is wanting me to get orthpedic shoes. Please someone, please, please, please tell me they aren't all old grandma shoes?! MICHELE SHUTTUP! - but seriously, I am NOT getting those shoes if that is my only option. I'll deal with my collapsed arches dangit!
What do you think Shel, think they come in my size?! O.o
I went to physical therapy today. The physical therapist says I have tendonitis throughout my right thigh, and bursitis in my hip. I apparently have a lot to work on. The PT said that my arch collapses when I run, and showed me how it does it, which was kind of amazing how easily he was able to show me- pretty cool stuff. So he proceeded to deep tissue massage it, ice it, and stretch it. I'm all bruised up now because of my anemia, and my leg is killing me.

Yay for almost overness!
I have nothing to write about. It's Wednesday. I had a substitute this afternoon. It was a pretty sweet deal. I got to go to a writing workshop at the school district, and had a sub for it. I left at lunch, and came back for the last hour of the day- so technically, I was only gone for 1.5 hours. This was the first time I have felt comfortable, and extremely at ease with getting a sub! I was shocked at how OK with it I was. Amazing what a decent class will do!
One of my little boys left yesterday, and that made me sad. He's moving to McMinnville for a while. I also have a little girl that is moving to Oakdale next week, and Friday will be her last day. That leaves me with 24 kids. I'm wondering how fast it'll be before I get loaded with more kids. I'm going to definitely enjoy the lower number though! It's amazing what 1 or 2 kids gone (no matter which ones)- will do for a classroom dynamic.
Lexy has been throwing up lately. I'm not sure what it is. She's also been shedding like crazy. I'm not taking her to the vet though. She's not dieing, and she's still eating, so whatever.
I also got paid today- hooray for raises! - it wasn't much, but more money, easier class is always a bonus, right? :D
I don't have any *new* pictures, so here's a picture of a beach house I want to buy. Sorry the fence is blocking 90% of it- we were cruising along, and I said, OH, I LOVE THAT HOUSE! and took a picture! :)
I also downloaded Wizard of Oz, I'm excited to watch it. Do you know where my DVD went? I can't find it anywhere, and I'm too cheap to buy it again. Speaking of too cheap, I bought a lapdesk fan thing. It sits under my laptop with a fan going to keep my processor cool while I play games, so my legs don't burn up. YES!
I have physical therapy tomorrow- wish me luck!
HEY, REMEMBER IT'S BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH- check yourself before you wreck yourself sista!
