"Twilight" Movie!!! :D

The "Twilight" movie comes out on Friday! I'm going with my mom and friends to a late screening on Thursday night! WOOOOOO! SO EXCITED!!! :D


*UPDATE: We are in fact going to the 11:59 PM screening of "Twilight" on Thursday night. WOO! Oh and yeah...I have to work the next morning. OUCH! Can you say Red Bull?! I'm still trying to decide what to wear! LOL! One of the girls is wearing a red scarf to symbolize a bloody neck! HAHA! Granted, there's no bloody necks in the books, but still...gotta show some love to the vampire phenom!

Miranda & George - CMA's

I watched the Country Music Awards last night. *yawn* Talk about a hella-long show! The show was three hours (too) long - they only handed out nine awards! The sound seriously sucked too! It was awesome to hear Miranda Lambert sing "More Like Her" on the show last night, though. Here are a few of my favorite pics...

Miranda Lambert on the red carpet. I think one of the reasons that I just adore Miranda Lambert (besides LOVING her music) is that she's "real". She's not some super skinny little starlet that you can't relate to - she loves her chicken fried steak and french fries and is damn proud of it! LOL! She's just...lovely and refreshing. :)
Miranda performing "More Like Her". I love this song - it's so beautiful and different! She wrote this song by herself. The video is in an earlier post - go watch it!

George Strait performing on the show last night. Miranda is definitely right up there in my favorite artists, but George...awww George. There's no words. He's just George. I never get tired of his music - it's classic and familiar. It doesn't hurt that he's so damn cute too! :P

Week Seventeen

WOO! YAY! LOSE WEEK! HAHA! It's not much, but I lost 1.6 pounds last week. WOO! I also just found out that I got ONE HUNDRED PERCENT on my Biology midterm! AHHHHH! YAY! I was a little nervous! It was a short essay answer test and one of the questions kinda scared me. So yeah...good things happening right now! *happy dance*

Viva La Resistance! :D

Crazy-Busy & Beautiful

Alright. I know I've done nothing but spout off on how crazy my life has been lately, so I figured I’d clue everyone in on what’s been going on. The biggest thing: I went back to school! Crazy, huh?! I am going back to school to get my Associate's degree in Animal Science!! I grew up having an insane love for animals (thanks, Mama) and wanting to be a veterinarian. I did a two-year internship at a large animal hospital in high school, but ended up leaving for various reasons and doing something else. I really enjoy my office job I have now (and I'm good at it), but I really just miss science and math and all things furry. I had a brief moment where I looked into nursing programs, but then I remembered that all things human make me say, "YUCK!" So after some digging and research, I found a school that will take me back to what I truly love and grew up wanting. It's a little crazy being back in school and having to say things like, “Nope...can’t go out on Friday...have to study”, but I’m really happy with my decision so far.

So obviously a huge part of being back in school includes tuition. Yeah...no fun. In order to save money on rent, I moved in with my brother a couple weeks ago. Yeah, I know - I just moved a couple months ago!! GAH! Anyways, he was thinking about getting a roommate, so my lovely mama mentioned something to us and we decided to be roomies! It’s been pretty great so far! In all honesty, my brother is my best friend. I love the kid like no other and we get along pretty great. So Lola and I are living with Zachey Boy. It hurt financially to break my lease at my apartment that I just moved into, but it will save me a butt load of money in the long run. Zach’s very clean and super about making me a cup of coffee in the mornings! HAHA! The only thing we’ve scuffled on so far is brand-name vs. generic cottage cheese! LOL!

So that’s what’s been happening with A.C. and The Grizz. Life is crazy-busy and exhausting right now, but then again...it’s hopeful, exciting, and as always, beautiful. Here’s to hoping that in two years, Lola and I will be outta the city, living on a farm, working at a clinic and as always...gittin' dirty!

Work Halloween Pics

Hey all! Here are some Halloween pics from my work! Each pod dressed up as a different movie theme...

We, of course, were the "First Wives Club"!















This is our "ex-husband"! His sign says:
"The Ex-Husband, 1951-1958,
Died penniless in the arms of his pop-tart...
...may he rot!"

These were the "Sex and the City" girls!


"Juno"!! :D




"Night of the Living Dead" :/

Buckles, Boots 'n Spurs!

I just realized that I never thanked my hottie Aunt Staci for my cute background! I know, I'm a little late. Anyways, it's very me! I love everything country - including hot cowboys! WOOT WOO! HAHA! She found this cute Western layout for me and helped me out with making my blog fun!

Thanks, Lou! I love you!! :)

Week Fourteen-Fifteen-Sixteen

Finally, right?! A post about Weight Watchers! What can I say? The last MONTH has been insane! I went hunting/camping, went to Monticello, started school, went to Primm/Vegas and moved. Yeah! CRAZY! All in one month! I feel like I'm FINALLY going to be able to breathe this week! Anyways, the week after we got home from Vegas, I went to WW...and...it wasn't good. Last week I didn't get the chance to go because I was still moving. I'm in the middle of mid-terms this week, but my mom convinced me that I at least needed to go and weigh in. So I managed to make it in last night. The number? Exactly the same as before my month-long crazy life started. YAY! I didn't gain! HAHA! I am a little disheartened that I didn't lose - that's a month that could have been another 10 pounds, BUT at least I didn't gain. I started this with the intention to be healthy and lose weight - no matter how long it took. So, the fact that I didn't gain is really, really awesome for me. Vegas was filled with a lot of good food, and Halloween... Halloween was really hard for me for some reason. I generally don't have a sweet tooth, but for some reason, I could not stop eating candy. I did okay with eating, but let's face it...I could have done better. It's all good, though. I'm back to tracking and bringing my food again. Here's hoping that next week is a "downer" week! :P

Halloween Pics!

I know I'm being such a slacker with my blog right now, but life's been crazy. I feel like it might FINALLY slow down a bit this week. YAY!

Anyway, here are pics of me and Zach on Halloween! Zach was a redneck-sheep-herder! LOL! We dubbed him my "cuzzin" from Louisiana, Ricky Bobby! And, of course...It's Britney, bitch! BUWAHAHAHA! Seriously one of the best and funniest costumes I've ever donned. We went to our friends' house on Halloween for a party and it RULED! True to Britney form, I carried my Starbucks cup around with me all night - the baby and the Cheetos only lasted for about an hour before I stuffed them into a corner. Everyone thought my costume was super funny and original! I seriously laughed all night, "YAAAA'LLLL!" :D
