i went to my friend kelly's house... we had lunch today and chatted while her little lady lana... decided to be herself which means... loud... and wanting attention... oh and did i mention she was butt ass naked and i was so jealous of her... lol...
i thought man i'll take pictures of chickens... how hard could it be?... ha ha... hard enough... lets see the move their heads so much... that i would get blurry pictures... but ate least i had a good close up of a chicken trying to peck the lense of my camera... i also had a good picture of the puppy dog trying to sniff my camera lense... it was so cute and bad at the same time...
i scared one of kelly's dogs with my camera... he would not allow me to pet him... aww... but i did get one good picture of him...
and kelly gave me some worms so now i have pet worms... yeah!!! :)
it was a nice day... i enjoy spending time with kelly... her kids are beautiful and creative... and her flowers are wonderful as well as her pets... she eats organic foods just like do... and the coolest part is that she has dreads... rock on chicka!
my trainer says i need to eat more protein... only because he says my muscle mass needs to be brought up even though i lost like 5lbs... i'm done with him... so i'm going to go for a run tomorrow at 6am!! yeah want to join me?
oh and i did laundry!!
the end...

i really do shoot better with my camera... i'm back from drills with the Army National Guard... we had to go to the range this weekend... and fire our M16A2's...i zeroed out perfectly... almost scary like i could kill something with ease... but then off to the pop up targets... which i believe was not working right because no one was passing... i shot almost till my hands and shoulders gave in... i counted about 24 or 25 out of 40 but it only counted 18... and people that normally get like 36 out of 40 targets didn't even pass... it was bad real bad...
after about 5 hours of sleep we had to go to the 203, 249 (saw), and M9 ranges... luckily since i was CLS qualified... i became the combat medic for the 249 range... which meant i sat in the van and waited for someone to pass out... so i could stick them... then i also became the radio bitch so that i could call range control every hour on the hour till the range went cold...
the next day they tried to make me take a humvee drivers test... which i took like 6 years ago... so i gave them my expired license and bam i didn't have to take the test but instead i had to clean the bath room... yum... right huh...
made it home and i slept... oh and because i got a friend to join the guard i'll be getting 2,000 dollars from them!!! oh yeah... oh and thinking of getting a job as a recruiter here... only cuz they pay about 46,000 a year... nice... but i have to get people to join and i have to get at least 3 people a month...i think... i can' do it only because im next to fort hood... and prior military is now recieving a 20,000 dollar bonus... nice huh... people join because of the bonus... and college money...
oh watched Iron Man tonight... it rocked my socks! i was not expecting it to be that good!! so go and watch it now bitches... lol...
oh and greg thanks for the CD... i'm going to listen to it quite soon... i still have to get your's and debbers out to you both... damn maybe tomorrow!

i found mr.snail on my door on i believe monday... i had to laugh... because i think he likes to be ripped off of my door and throw onto the ground... i left him there for about three days... or four... my days have been a mess since i am making up drills in Austin.. which is an hour and half drive... or 2 hours... or just an hour of sitting in pure traffic...
i'm not going to take that job... they don't pay for my gas (which in two days i have to fill up) and i hate traffic... i hate driving very aggressively... it sucks... i'd rather be super poor than to drive there...
i had an interview at Denver Mattress... i might be selling mattress... good thing is that its only 5 minutes away... no more waking up at 330am or 445am...
that bruise was not for drugs... for three days in Austin i had to attend a CLS class a.k.a Combat Life Saver Class... which means that i'm second in saving a life to a Combat Medic... eww... i hate blood and guts... but i took the test and got a 95 on it! super cool...but we had to stick someone with needle to try to get them on an IV... i was stuck twice and the second time this guy stuck me through my vien causing infiltration... blah... and hence the damn bruising... it hurt the first day... and part of the second... but now its just ugly to look at...
i stuck someone... and i got it on the first try i was so happy...i did a i-stuck-someone-in-the-vein-and-i'm-so-freaking-happy dance...

1. I have loved boys since i was like 3... i would go to church and just daydream about the boys there asking me out... or kissing me... or giving me flowers... it was like playing with barbies in my head...
2. In second grade i sent out home-made valentines to the boys that said "i love you will you be my valentine" it wasn't clever enough all the boys opened theirs and shared what it said... and said "eww no" from that point on i was the creepy girl that makes cards for boys...
3. i have lived in North Carolina, Arkansas, Japan, Virginia, Alaska, Idaho, Pennsylvania, and now Texas...
4. i went to public school, then i was homeschooled for 4 years, and then 9th grade i went to public school... and after that 3 different private (christian) schools to be about 9 differents schools in my life...
5. i feel out of the christian religion because a) i was unhappy b) i felt guilt in everything i did c) they were forcing jesus on kids that were 2 and 3... and they couldn't even understand the word no as much as they liked to... d) i wanted to be free...
6. most of my friends and close relatives have been raped... it scares the shit out of me because i hope i'm not next...
7. i can't kill bugs... i save them but i scream the whole time i save them...
8. i try to eat as healthy as possible but sometimes i just have to have that ice-cream or sugar in my cereal... and i don't feel bad after i eat it...

on my drive back from the grocery store i found these beautiful flowers in someones yard... and what do i do? i pull over grab my camera... and start to take pictures.. it was a cloudy day but i'm surprised at how the colors truely came out in each flower... as well... the neighbors happened to pull into their drive way... and in the back yard i heard the owners of the flowers gabbing along... but i was going to take pictures and thats what i did...
so i said no i don't want plastic or paper... i have my own bags... 5 to be exact... and now i'm the bag lady... because i am the only one that is using them so far in my neighborhood... but i love it... i hate plastic bags... and they are so bad for our environment... yeah i'm trying for the eco friendly type... my boyfriend is the opposite in this area but i got hime to recycle... oh kay thats a start...
the lady is truely a treasure to find said my eyes...
