Update

Hey Folks and Folkettes! It sure has been awhile hasnt it. Here are some new things that have been happening:

I finally bought a new phone and to quote one of the reviews for it " This... phone... is...sex". Yup it is that pretty. And its also that complicated, dont worry I'll figure it out sooner or later.

Me and Matt are going to Minneapolis from March 6 to 8th to get our shop-on. I'm pretty pumped, especially cause it will be a short week at work.

I might be getting a "free" car. My dad will be unable to drive his car for the next 2-3yrs and is willing to pay for everything except gas and let me drive it for that period of time. I am a little hesitant because it isnt exactly a beginners car. I havent seen it but I think it will look pretty close to the photos below.

Yup, its a very long car, which is very intimidating. But I figure, if I can master parking in this car I should be able to drive anything. The funny thing for those who dont know, the car I tried to learn on years ago is very similar to this car and I wasn't exactly a natural. So lets just hope that time and wisdom will give me a better driving experience this time.

I went and finally got my passport and it really pays to do it online first. It took me a couple of hours to fill it out on the computer (I'm such a scatterbrain for dates) but it only took me 5min at the passport place so it was worth it. So it a couple of weeks I will be in possession of yet another piece of id that will mean trouble if /when I lose it.

Travis' Bday Bash

Well yesterday I went to Michelle and Travis' for Travis' bday. Well the funny thing was that Travis was pretty bummed cause he ordered Guitar Hero 3 but it wasn't in yet. He mentioned it a few times and I was trying hard for him not to see me giggle. Ryan had come up with a great idea earlier that day and we all pitched in to get him Rock Band. Rock Band is just like guitar hero except there are drums, a guitar and a microphone. It was a riot. Definitely a great party game.Travis was pretty pumped and we all had a really fun time.
