Toni! I may have to have you give me your number again. I switched phone companies, and I have no idea what numbers I have. I should just IM you and get it from you then. Yes. Saturday sounds wonderful though, you’ll have to meet Leela and see my beautiful apartment. I’m so ridiculously proud of my apartment (and Leela).

I’ve noticed an increase of random anonymous comments… I especially enjoyed the ones that were full of lotss ov xtra lettersss and bad cmptr lingo. Taking the vowels out of words doesn’t always make them cool. Eating lunch is for weirdos! Perhaps I’ve gained a random troll from northwest junior high, that would be HI-larious. I love when random people who know my sister IM me, and their screennames are like …. Supersexylilgirl or sexybadasschik and shit. And I’m like… uh, news flash, you’re 13. Seeeriously. It’s either that or the worst drunk typist imaginable.

Leela has commandeered my heating pad, I had it out for my back the other day, and she is in love with it. I think it has replaced me as her favorite. I’m still more popular than the honking green bear though.

I have this habit of hitting the shift key over and over when I’m trying to think of what to type and it keeps turning sticky keys on and off. Aaaah!

Corn is no place for a mighty warrior!

A picture of Leela! Aww, isn't she ridiculously cute?! Yes, she is.

I'm only blogging because of Renata's comment. I just want to save the kittens!

Not a lot has been goin on here, I'm excited about my birthday coming up in two weeks though! Two weeks! I'll be 22! Woot! I have no idea what I'm actually going to do for my birthday... Cal and I discussed having a party at Studio on valentines day (since it'll be my actual birthday, and a tuesday so we'd mostly have the bar to ourselves), but that's dependent on whether or not i have enough friends who would come. Otherwise I might have people over to my apartment for wine and like... appetizers or something... Or, just get a bunch of people to go out with me the weekend after my birthday. Or something.

But, really, if you are one of my friends who reads this and never comments (like CAL), then you should comment or im me or something and give me input on what you think i should do for my birthday. I'm up for anything, i just want to have the festivities on an evening when everyone can have fun, and won't just be stopping by for a minute before studying or something. I'm thinking maybe having a birthday dinner somewhere some night that week... I'll prolly go out with my parents on my actual birthday... Just cuz i hate going to dinner on my birthday because it's FREAKING VALENTINES DAY, and everyone's out being all lovey. blaaah.

Also, I haven't been downtown in MONTHS, and i'm thinking i wanna go to the piano lounge sometime soon for martinis. so, if you would like to accompany me to the piano lounge, call me, and we'll go! Also, people need to meet leela! she loves people, but i have no friends so she doesn't get to hang out with anyone ever. She really liked graham though, which was kind of surprising. i didn't think they would get along. leela was easily won over with some cheese... but i was genuinely surprised that graham wasn't just like "that's not a dog, it's a rat" ... which is how most guys react to her (they just aren't manly enough to admit that chihuahuas are awesome).

Tonight has been very drama filled. and for once, i actually DIDN'T say anything to bring it on myself. I'm the first to admit that i'm a horrible gossip... but for once, i didn't do anything! yet, the drama hast begun. oh well. It's really not my problem, and i have MUCH bigger things on my mind that people flipping out about absolutely nothing. So, i'm off to play with my puppy and go to bed. see, I was going to give leela a bath last night but i didn't. so, i'm gonna do that now and GO TO BED. because somehow it got to be really late.

!!!

ok, this post is ENTIRELY for my cousin patrick. who, despite being my biggest fan, prolly only reads this once every four millions years. but i dont' have his email, so it's my best bet.

was reading some of the blogs that are up for bloggies this year and there was this one that's up for most humorous or something...

"When I first bought my digital camera, I discovered the "video" feature to be the best thing evs. Why so great? While a 30 second video is not a technological breakthrough, taking a video without the person on camera realizing they're being filmed IS genius. And unless you're wearing a turban with a conspicuously shiny hole in it, secret filming is hard to come by."

she somehow knows the true purpose of the night jogging turban!

Leela

So, if you haven't heard, I got a puppy for christmas! and her name's Leela.


She's a short haired chihuahua, and she's SOOOO amazingly cute. And she's a genius. She's my christmas/birthday present from matt. I love love love love her. Matt left for camp shelby today at 5, it was sad. I miss him soooo much already. It's a little easier being home alone all the time now that Leela's here. she sleeps a lot, but so do i. so it's alright. We have lots of fun. She won't eat her puppy treats, but she will do ANYTHING for a dryer sheet or a dust bunny. We got her some greenies a couple days ago, and she really likes those... we also got her assorted flavors of nylabones, but she only likes the bacon one, the smell of which drives matt crazy. I'm being a bad puppy owner and let her chew on a bone from my BBQ ribs. It said that it's ok, not dangerous or anything, but i feel like i'm spoiling her. she likes it so much though!


i think matt was right when he said i'm going to spoil her too much... she even has a puppy purse. it's so cute, she likes to sit in it and watch teevee with me. she's also figured out that if she gets in her purse when it's on the floor, i'll pick up the purse and put it on the couch so she doesn't have to jump up or climb the afghan.


slowly but surely the apartment is becoming puppy proof. matt and i intended to clean the day before we went to get leela... originally i was going to say home and clean while he went to best buy with his friend that i don't like so his friend could buy a laptop... then i decided i wanted to go along, so i did... then it took like FOUR HOURS at best buy because his friend was being moronic. so, we didn't make it home til like six, and we were supposed to have left for cedar falls (we were meeting guys from his unit) at like 5:30. So, we packed super fast, and headed to cedar falls. had fun in cedar falls, i was going to go swimming, but i fell asleep instead. SO, the next morning we headed up to mason city to get leela from the breeders, and then drove like... four hours back home. So, we got back to iowa city and cleaned up a little bit... but didn't really CLEAN. so, it's been puppy safe, but not very nice looking.


today after matt left i picked up after the new years party, moved furniture so i could sweep behind it, and cut sheets of cardboard to fit in the spots that lead behind couches and under tables and whatnot. now leela can't hide from me in the living room. The bedroom still needs some work... matt apparently brought like 90 pairs of boxers from home, and they all just got thrown into the bedroom when we brought leela home. every time i go into the bedroom to get something, leela follows me in and brings out a sock or a pair of boxers. So, cleaning the bedroom is next. followed by cleaning the kitchen. the kitchen is going to be difficult to puppy proof, but that's why i got a puppy gate.


alright, enough puppy blogging for now, i'm gonna go play with her for awhile before we go to bed. sooo, goodnight, and i promise i will post pictures of her asap.
