I think my Dad had a pretty good Father's day.

We showed up at the house bearing steak and other food. Crab legs, and brussel sprouts. We hung out waiting on my brother and his fiance' to get there.

Then we got the grill started and Eric cooked the steaks, he makes a mean steak. And then my Mom decided to make some bbq baked beans with the little weanies which were frozen. Burns the bottom of the beans - but they were still edible and no one else noticed. The brussel sprouts took longer than I thought in the microwave.

The Crab legs were AWEsome! Krogers even steamed them for us for free! That was way coool.

Then my Mom & Dad and I cleaned up the kitchen. And then it was Mom and me cleaning the kitchen.

Had cake and coffee.

Watched the end of Open Season, it was cute. Eric, Holli, and Jeff had never seen it.

Then we were outa there!

Gave Dad 30 bucks to go towards a tatoo that him and my brother talked about.

My Dad is 52 years old and now he wants to get a tattoo, go figure.

Am I reallly?

So - in case anyone is at all interested...

Things are going well, Last weekend was the 1st weekend we spent mostly apart. Felt Kind of weird.

I went to my great Aunt's funeral. The funeral was sad, but the trip was kind of neat. I got to see my great grandfather's grave and my great great grandfather's grave, and I got to meet some of my Mom's side of the family that I've never met before. And I got to hear some stories from my grand mother about her child hood, that was cool.

And as much fun as I had, I really actually missed my sweetie - OMG! like give me a break right? But all was well, b/c I got to see him when I got home. Of course, the only thing I could talk about the whole time was my sweetie...what else right?

Highlights to foot note -

We went to breakfast early Sun. morning and got a little turned around trying to find a place that served sit down breakfast, ended up at a place like two blocks from the Hotel that we'd past three times. I was like "that place has lots of cars - I bet they have breakfast" low and behold - they did...Yay.

While eating breakfast my Mom and Grandma were talking about how much they want me to have babies - when I went to pay the waitress actually asked me "so I guess your expecting?" - I had to laugh!

IN the midst of getting ready for the Funeral in the Hotel, I was of course talking about Jeff, yet again, and my MOm says something like "sounds like Shaunda's in love"...and she gives me that sly cat gaze...and I said quitely "sounds like you may be right"...she of course made me repeat it louder so Everyone could hear...

So where is he right now? He went to go work out - isn't that just cute!
He works out...henh! He's so health concious.

So hey, He's going to officially meet the parents tomorrow. :) I'm really not that nervous, I know they are going to love him as much as I do.

Also - on a side note, this is also the day that he will officially be my "boyfriend". I told him that he couldn't be that until he meets the parents. At the time I kind of meant for it to be a longer period, but hey whateva! never know where the wind is going to take you right?

And interestingly - I still have not seen His apartment. It's so hard during the week b/c I get off so late that we don't have a lot of time, so we do a lot of nothing on my couch. Plus he's so cute - he doesn't want me driving that late at night. Isn't that sweet.

XOX

HoRAH!

2007-07-22T12:44:38Z

In case anyone Is interested. Things are just fine with me.

I'd like to thank my parents, I'd like to thank my friends. And most of all I'd like to thank God for sending me the most wonderful and sweetest Man into my life.

Everyday is just sweeter than the last. I find my self wanting to spend every waking moment with him.

He smells so good all the time. Like fabric softner and inscence all rolled into one.

He makes me laugh - which I have not done in a long time.

All that is the past and all that was before does not matter in the least in this moment which If I could, I would wish to last forever.

I haven't watched a lick of TV in two weeks. And I don't miss it a bit.

Yeah, I'm herd like too!

Your Score: ellipsis

You scored 46% Sociability and 88% Sophistication!

Your life can be difficult because of your insecurities, but you should know that it isn't your fault. YOU didn't ask to be thrown in around thirty times per page in every bodice-ripper on the shelf! Those who overuse you can kiss your . . . you know. You need to learn to hold your head high and glory in your solitude. You really do have excellent, scholarly tastes. You must never forget that your friend, the period, will be there to support you at the end of every sentence where you truly belong, and, if what is left out is as important as what is said, why, then you are as vital as the alphabet!

Your Score: Steven Soderbergh

Your film will be 60% romantic, 21% comedy, 49% complex plot, and a $ 29 million budget.

Filmography: Sex Lies and Videotape, Traffic, Ocean's Eleven, Ocean's Twelve, Erin Brockovich, and various other homemade independent films. He may just want to follow you around for a few months and construct a film out of that. Your humor is either dry or non-existant, but your life is somewhat exciting romantically because you're "bad." At least you'll be surrounded by the best-looking people who will be cast as your friends, who in real life are probably just as good-looking. Then when he wins the Academy Award for your film, he won't have to make anymore "Ocean's" films.

Everything at work is f'd up dude.

All the new changes are not going according to plan. --emails are SICK and grossly out of hand. PHones will not stop ringing. URGGG! [Frustrated]

Dude - talk about stressed out. Totally. [sex would be good, I think I need some releif man! - if I could get any]

Then there's the thing about the a/c going out today at work. Suck ASS!!
It was hot - I was snappyish.

Also - romantic field is on stand-by. Wish it would just do a fly over or something. Get going or something. I dunno - like whatever. WhatEver!

Writer's Block: Words that you love and hate

2007-06-13T04:12:20Z

What are your favorite and least favorite words? Any reasons why?

Well - none. I like words. I don't like the word shut-up or stupid, probably b/c those were the worst words to say in my family growing up. We were not allowed to insult each other's intelligence or disallow speech if it was true in thought and reason.

I do however have things that people do that I hate: Chew Gum, Eat Loud, place stinky feet near me.

These are things that I can not tolerate at all, and have a problem not telling people when it bothers me - I can be very rude. {no really - rolls eyes}

ok - enough blog things for tonight - but this one is funny.

Seattle

2007-06-08T03:21:11Z

Seattle was nice.

My boss cancelled out at the last minute. Everything was all full speed ahead with out him anyway.

My ears hurt from the decent back :( and I'm very tired, jet-lagged.

But I got to go see the space needle finally for the 1st time :) that was neat-o. I, actually probably could have left on Wed., but I didn't :)

So enyway! - dude - I talked to JDub yesterday, but then his phone was f-ed up so we didn't get to talk long. I'm kind of worried about that boy.

Next time we get together we've got to take lots of pictures and send to him, it was by request. So we gotta do it. -- so when ya'll coming over? (come on - it's your turn).

So - that's about it. Not really a whole lot. Work-work.

Crap!!

2007-05-24T03:49:51Z

I left my cell phone at work! URG - I really can't stand it. I don't want to go back to work now, b/c it's already kinda late - bad idea, and there's no-one that will go with me.

I don't really need it, but I just feel so naked with out it. It' s my proverbial safety blanket. I rarely actually use it, but I like having it around for when I want to.

Man! This sucks!

I've Got Grass!

2007-05-07T03:56:22Z

Whoohoo, I have grass in the back yard.

Yesterday I woke up superduper early 'cause my parents neighbor is doing some changes in his back yard, adding a patio and stuff. So he was getting rid of his grass. So we rented a sod cutter and cut the grass, loaded it in my Dad's truck, and then unloaded it to my back yard. I'm sooo sore now. I've got places that haven't seen strenuous activity and god knows how long that really ache now. But it kind of feels good to, like I've accomplished something.

Then today I went shopping. My feet hurt. I shopped till I felt like dropping. I got the cutest new purse to go with my fab. new shoes. And more.

And in other news I found out Friday that I'm getting to go to Seattle again. Some time between May 20th and the 23rd or something.

I have nothing to wear.

Also - There are lots of exciting changes that are going to be happening at work - it's going to be neat. I'm going to get to learn more stuff, which is really cool.

HAHAHAHA

2007-05-04T04:06:28Z

Yay - Yay - Yay!!!

Ok - is it really terrible to be this excited over a pair of shoes? I was quite literally bouncing all over the office today.

- Ok, so my bro got a 2nd Job at Macy's - COOL. Even more cool - Ladies Shoes. Ok so my dream come true right?

This weekend is apparently Freinds and Family weekend, and there were this pair of Coach Shoes that I've been lusting for, uhm I couldn't say how long (over a year - how embarrassing) and TeeHee!

And yes, They got them for me on Super Duper Hella Sale with my Brother's discount and the Freinds and Family Discount too! AAahhH!!! EeeeK! I say, EeeeK! {high peircing Shaunda Shreik of Doom - cover your ears they hurt now}

You Are a Mermaid

You are a total daydreamer, and people tend to think you're flakier than you actually are.
While your head is often in the clouds, you'll always come back to earth to help someone in need.
Beyond being a caring person, you are also very intelligent and rational.
You understand the connections of the universe better than almost anyone else.

The pellet with the poison's in the vessel with the Shaunda.

Which movie was this quote from?

Dude - I got to know

2007-04-28T10:11:02Z

Instructions:
1. Put your music player on shuffle.
2. Press forward for each question.
3. Use the song title as the answer to the question even if it doesn’t make sense. NO CHEATING!
4. Tag 5 people! - No. It's more organic if people volunteer
5. Bold the questions and with the answers, give your own comments on how it relates to the questions. I liked Amolthia's use of lines as part of this, so I'm rolling with that.

I got the chance to download lots of my cd's to my computer b/c of this little fun ditty. And I've realized just how very many cd's I've bought for just one song. Man, those really suck when it's the only one that I really like - other good things is that now I finally can make that compilation cd I've always wanted to do :)

01. How are you feeling today?
Everything - Alanis Morsette
"I can be a night mare of the grandest kind" - yeah pretty much.
"I can be cold like it's going out of style" - um yah. ok.
"You see all my life and you love my dark" -
Ok so maybe I'm a little conceited and stuff - but I'm also nice too. - Which is kind of true. I'm in a reflective mood which is the tone. Cool.

02. Will you get far in life?
Till I hear it from you - Gin Blossums

"I don't wanna take advise from fools - I just figure everything is cool until I hear it from you"

Okay so I guess I'll spend most of my life depending on other people to tell me when there is a problem - I'm not sure if that relates to any kind of success so to speak.

"Outside looking in" - ummm...alright.

I really like this song. So maybe I'm not going to be that "successful" - whatever, don't really care about what others think anyway. Kind of make my own way - which is how the song is, so, Cool.

03. How do your friends see you?

Feel Good - Gorillaz :) Yay I love this song!!!!

"it's a feral starr, All I wanna hear is the message beep...
My dreams I got to kiss them 'cause I don't get sleep...I'm forever hiding out...Love forever...Love is free... turn forever you and me . is everybody in
- OK THIS IS IT - CAREBEAR IN THE HEART OF THIS IS HEAR - watch me as I gravitate haha...
this my chocolate attack
So don't stop get, get it! Whatchme as I navigate Hahaaahaaaah!"

Oh YEAH!Baby

COOL - so I guess they see me as a dreamer that hides my feelings, but is loving and generous to those she cares about. Cool me.

04. Will you get married?

Suck my Kiss - Red Hot Chili Pepper's
"Oh baby think you can"
"hit me you can't hurt me" "suck my kiss" "kiss me please don't hurt me" "stick with this"
"your mouth was made to suck my kiss"
"Oh baby say you can, be my girl I'll be your man"

?? oh well, guess not. Oh well they can suck my kiss baby!

05. What is your best friend's theme song?
It's been awhile - Stained

Yes, it's been awhile since we've gotten to hang out.
And it's been awhile since she's been really happy.

"Everything I can't remember, is as fucked up as it always seemed" isn't it always
"I streched myself beyond my means" - probably

"but all that shit seems to disipate when I'm with you" - I think this is my favorite line - It always dissipates when I'm with her. I forget about the world and everything else. I love it when she's around and when we get to hang out. She's so awesome. I miss my friend.

06. What is the story of your life?
Nails for Breakfast, Tacks for Snack - Panic at the Disco.

"the sky feels awesome today ... you know you should ... with all the top positions"

I can't really understand what he says - but it's pretty in a sad way. Kind of me I guess.

07. What was high school like?
Cailin - Unwritten Law

"well it seemed like yesterday...when the world was looking dark it felt so cold and gray" - could not describe High School any better for me.

Ok best line "why the hell am I even here" - Ha ha! Oh my god! This freaking song...

"Till that day you came along" - Yeah I got out of there as fast I could.

"now I know you are the reason why I'm here today" - yeah ok - High School may not have been great, but it did help shape who I am now. The hard times help you become stronger right? "we'll be alright, alright" Thank-God I lived through it.

08. How can you get ahead in life?
Time - The Greencards --> I don't think this one is fair, it's not even mine it came with the computer...I don't even listen to country - I think that's what it is...

"On the wind I feel...righteous life...I close my eyes and then go back again...I hear a song on the radio...now that some one is gone...
Time is a river, rolling under the sea
I close my eyes and then go back again.

Last night I had a dream about a place I've never been..."

Ok - this is why I do not listen to Country - I'm crying my eyeballs out b/c this song is just so sad. I can't really understand the words or what she says.

Any way - whatever.

09. What is the best thing about your friends?
Boulevard of Broken Dreams - GreenDay

"I walk a lonely road, the only one that I have ever known, I don't know where it goes" - they are independant and free thinkers like my self.

"read between the lines what's fucked up is everythings alright"

They have such beautiful dreams.

10. What is in store for this weekend?
Gone Daddy Gone - Violent Femmes

Going by too fast probably! Just like this week...

"when I see you eyes will turn blue"

11. To describe your grandparents?
Bleed American - Jimmy Eat World

"I'm not alone 'cause the TV's on Yeah!"
"I'm not crazy 'cause I take the right pills, everyday"
"best clear your conscience"
"blood, sweat, sugar on the asphalt"

Um pretty much - too much T.V. - she's alone all day, too many medicince to keep up with. Yep - I need to go see my Grandma.

12. How is your life going?
Diseased - Seether
Umm, guess too much time alone?

"leave your mark under my stand prove how strong you are
feast your eyes on my disdain,
I will never belong to you again"
"but if you still need my pain - cause I will never tell"
"scream if you still hate my name - cause I will be ware"
"come sit close to me - hands around my neck"
"I will never belong to you again"
"but I'm diseased and ungrateful"

- K so if I stay as I am now, then things aren't looking that much up...

13. What song will they play at your funeral?
Track 13 - O'Doyle Rules

Urgh - this isn't even a song. But it's a whiney piece of shit ditty that they did about an insecure person in an insecure world that just got really shit on...they try to make it funny, but I think it is just sad.

14. How does the world see you?
My Would be Saviour - 8stops7
I really love this song.

"Can't fill my mind with doubt.
Have I forgotten who I am?...
I sit alone, a room full of friends...
My would be saviour slips something inside my mouth - for kicks."
"I thought I'd seen you at your best, my mistake"
"Sorry, yes you are, what do you know?"

"Tries to play it safe, wants to be afraid, can not do the same, push it away" - Ok, this line get's it. The world sees me as a safety kid, who tries to be afraid even when she's not. Um? maybe?

15. Will you have a happy life?
Lonely Lover - Shaggy

Ok I like this song, It's an upbeat happy song, even if it's about being lonely and looking for love - ok at least looking for a lover...- so maybe I'll be alone, but I'll still be happy. Probably right, kind of hard to see me with anyone anyway that would be able to hold up, hold out, and not give up.
"I just don't wanna be lonely"

16. What do your friends really think of you?
Burrito - Seether

"I try to hide my self - give this to someone else,
My hands are stained with
wish I could wash it away
you keep breaking
I can't beleive in yesterday - I feel you coming in
I just can't just stand by and watch you, save yourself - as you fall from grace.
When you come around I won't be your sympathy"

Too whiney? and looking for sympathy? Secretive? Out for my self?

They watch me make my own mistakes and then point them out to me...

17. Do people secretly lust after you?
Stockholm Syndrome - Muse
"this - is - the - last time I'll abandon you" - um, well guess not.
"I will never forget you - I wish I could" - okay, so do I have a stalker?? pray not.

18. How can I make myself happy?
Ok - how many Seether can we get in one place?
Simplest Mistake

"it's something I'm ill prepared to remedy"
"lets slow the time it takes to die"
"close your eyes to your enemy"
"suffocate with smiles and forcefed lies and close your mind to reality"
"it feels like I'm losing again,
when I've lost everything, I'm sure I will see more clearly
...lose what I'm feeling to them and not feel anything,
I'm sure I will bleed sincerely"

??Pretend that reality doesn't exist - that the world isn't crap that we have to live in, then maybe I'll be happy.

"your involvement in my demise"

19. What should you do with your life?
Nothin' - NORE.

I think the title says it all - I should do nothing with my life - Cool {sarcastic shmirk}

"Home boy - I came to party - your girl was looking at me - yeah, she's a haggler; no I'm not taggen' her - But you don't want them boys to come over and start asken ya." - have fun maybe? Fogetdabout it!

20. Will you ever have children?
Miserable - Lit
Um? Whatever that means.

Umm - kind of interesting to note that has sex in it, which is of course the process of making children.

"give up all of my plans - but who needs them when you mean everything"

"I'm not afraid of being here."
"so much is said - it makes me helpless"

- I'm thinking probably not.
