It's Almost Halloween

So we are a little slow, but we're finally ready for Halloween around here. We ran out and bought candy on Saturday before there was no good candy left. Our attempt last week to go to the pumpkin patch for FHE died when the pumpkin patch decided to close at 6:30. Yesterday I felt terrible and slept all day so we didn't get a pumpkin. Finally today after work and school we managed to pick a pumpkin out at Albertson's and carve it. Here's some pictures.

First the guts.


Russell's mean face.


My "Thunder Eyes"


Our finished product!

I Wish....

I wish that I didn't get screaming voice-mails from my brother.

I wish that my sister-in-law didn't hate me and try to be my best friend at the same time.

I wish that people wouldn't talk about me and my plans to others when they have no idea what the whole story is.

I wish that I could actually have a conversation with my sister-in-law....maybe. I guess since it would just end up with another screaming voice-mail it's probably not worth it.

I wish that people didn't put themselves in the middle of arguments.

I wish that my sister-in-law wouldn't outright ignore my attempts to talk to her about things that are wrong between us.

I wish that just once someone would take the blame for hurting my feelings and apologize rather than just yell that they didn't do anything wrong. It seems that I'm always the one apologizing even if I'm the one who got hurt.

I wish I didn't just have to "drop it"

I wish I knew what was actually behind the hatred.

But most of all.......I wish I still had a brother.

Blah, Blah,Blah

Not much is going on besides school and work. I did get to do some receiving this week at work which breaks up having to talk to customers all night or doing absolutely nothing when there are no customers.

The first round of midterms are out of the way, except for a grammar one for MCom. Surprisingly enough I actually find myself enjoying that class.

I have an interview with Sears on Wednesday for an internship this summer. It's full-time and paid so that's kind of exciting. The opportunity kinda just fell into my lap. We'll see how it goes.

Million Dollar Fries

Oh how I wish that my fries would be the ones with a million dollar instant win!

We went to McDonald's today for lunch to celebrate the beginning of McDonald's Monopoly. I looked at the menu and realized I needed to order large fries and drink to get more pieces, so I do, and then Russell proceeds to order a "large cheeseburger!" Haha. Interpreted that means a double cheeseburger completely plain. He really did just want more game pieces.

Oh how I love my husband.
