Alabama foot ball, Carmel Apples, and Shared printers. What an odd combination.

Sigh, I hate when I think of things to say when I don't have time to sit down and write and then when I do I have forgotten what I wanted to talk about. I guess I will just have to wing it.

So to start with the most recent, I am psyched about Alabama's start to this season. This may finally be the year we can break this iron bowl run. I am so ready to beat their little Auburn butts.
Don't get me wrong, ever since we moved I have developed an appreciation for Auburn, when we aren't playing them I want them to win over anybody. Just the same come this November I be head to toe, 100% Alabama crimson tide fan.
Any way I am really excited to be 4-0 and just beat number 3 ranked Georgia.

Well, today we went to the apple orchard and had a nice outing. It wasn't exactly the cool, colorful trees, fall kind of day that we typically do this trip on but fun just the same. I then got to come home and take one of those really great naps. You know, the kind where you fall asleep and don't wake up for 2 hours but you were sleeping so hard it felt like 2 seconds. I felt so good after that. I got up bumped into mom in the kitchen where we sat at the center island and shared my Carmel apple. I just love fall and every thing that goes with it. Carmel apples are just one of those fun traditions that make it so much fun.

I finally got the stupid printer shared. It sounds kind of weird I know but I have to struggling to do this on my own for like a month. Dad has always set that up in the past and this time I couldn't get him to look at it so I just decided to try. Now mind you I have shared like half a dozed printers in the labs in class but for some reason I had trouble doing it at home. I finally got really close the other night but then I realized that I didn't have the right driver on my computer so I went to the website and to my dismay couldn't find my operating system. (windows xp, how hard is that?) Anywho, I finally found the cd that had the driver on it, downloaded it and boom, I was able to connect. It's so encouraging to know at least some of what I'm learning is sinking in.
Ok, thank for reading that I know it was probably really boring but a big deal for me.


Well, I had all kinds of things I wanted to say the other day but now I am running a bit blank, besides I am really tired and I need to do a little work on this econ test before I go to get. I am so tired of this class but at least some of it is starting to make sense.

Later yall, take care.

I could hide out under there, I just made you say "underwear"

This is so just an intro to get this thing going. I have absolutely nothing to blog about today but I just go done reading a bunch of other peoples and got really made that I forgot my old blogspot login name and password so I just set up a new account. I can't keep up with all these dumb passwords.

So any way... ummm... well... OH, that title is currently my favorite lyric from any song on earth. I know, a little sad but still I love it. It just catches you off guard. Your really swaying getting into this song and all of the sudden he says this line I you just stop and say, what? Did he just say what I think he said, so you rewind and dog gone sure enough he made a joke right in the middle of no wear in the middle of his song. I think that is my fav. thing about the bare naked ladies stuff it that most of it is just light hearted fun stuff. If I had 1,000,000 dollars is and will always be one of my all time fav songs for just that reason. "If I had a million dollars, I would buy you a green dress, but not a real green dress that's cruel."  Ok, so that makes no sense if you have never heard the song before but trust me its funny.

So, one of the reasons I personally like blogging is it is a way to let people know what is new, even the stupid little stuff. I think the hardest thing about not living close to friends is that all those little things you used to just know about a person like their favorite candy bar or what song they were really into at the time are now totally hard to come by. I mean when you haven't spoken to someone in over a month it sounds a little dumb to say "so, what was the last song you listened to" or  "if I ran into a gas station and got you a drink what would you want." It feels like you have lost something special when you don't just know without asking anyway. There was a time I just knew that Jordan liked 3 musketeers, or Jess's fav. food was cheese nachos (ok, so some things don't change). I like blogging about what is in my mind on any given day rather then talking about big things in my life. I makes me feel like I am sharing those little pieces of myself that not just anyone knows about me. Not to many people to do that with when you know two or three people in town.  Especially when two of them are your parents who spend so much time with you they get sick of hearing about it. lol.

So anyway the following is just a short list of some of the stuff I like/don't like this week.

1. Music
    Loving right now
        Hate by plain white t's and every so mad that it is never on the radio
        Many the miles by sara ba... barelis... oh, something like that.
        Rocket Man redo by Jason Mraz, You can't find it anywhere but you tube or something of the like but it is worth looking up. I like the way he interacts with his audiences and would love to see him in concert. If you look it up listen to different videos versions cause he changes it up now and again, just make sure it is a different venue cause a lot of people repost the same show.

    Not lovin so much
         I kiss a girl and I liked it, why the heck do they have to play something every 20 mins. I don't like the message but even if it was an ok song in that way hearing it that much would drive me nuts.
         that bleeding love song, nothing about the song really, just that same problem as above, played way to dang much.


   TV
       Home Improvement has be a rediscovered fav since nick brought it back.
       Reba - taping every show on the dvr and finally watching them all in order. Love her a ton.
       Gilmore girls - Same as reba taping them and now watching the whole thing play out. I can sit and watch like 5 of those in a row so I am trying to pace myself.
       Sara Conner Chronicles (terminator series) A little hard to follow at times but possible one of the best new drama/scifi series on right now.

   Foods 
       new thing for me is blueberries. I don't so much mean fresh in a bowl but in cobbler of on
top of my pancakes or something mmmmm. I use to not like them very much but man did that
change.
      My fav. chocolate can officially be announced. Lindt Lindor Truffles are the best little balls of
heaven on earth. I don't have many favorites because there is always to many choices that are
good but these are hands down my fav way to eat chocolate. 

    Finally my current pet peeve.
          When you spend an hour carefully composing an email to someone and they read maybe 
half of it and respond to maybe a quarter of your questions. Case and point it my econ teacher.
He has had a lot going on this semester with problems on blackboard and stuff but so have we 
and I feel like he is always responding half way if that much. I will be so glad when this class is
over.

Well, I guess for having nothing to write I made a pretty good blog. I didn't add the Who me?
to my blog title for nothing.

Take care everyone, 
Love you and God bless
