Old West Colorado

Yesterday I went to Buffalo Bill Days in downtown to see the annual parade. It was a lot of fun, wish I would of gone in years past considering I have lived in the area for 5 years. There was a lot to do and see and lots of funny floats in the parade. After the parade I wandered down to the Golden Living History Park that's right off main street. I had never been inside and thought it would be a great idea to see sense it was a free day with the buffalo bill festivities. I loved it, I mean it small but it was so neat. I think I will look into volunteering there as a living history person. I would be doing things and dressing as a old west settler and explaining what I am doing to people who visit the museum. I'm so excited to sign up!

Fuck the Back Row

Fantastic! What a great idea Amanda and Brian had. I think they should do more shows like this or atleast keep them fresh with new ideas (like FTBR) to add to the music, it just makes it so much more fun.

IKnowCrazy!

We just started a new computer program at work today, one week after my drive by training (it was that bad, seriously!). I was freaking out just to come into work today because I had no idea what to expect. It was a bit trying of my sanity this morning but it hasn't been too terrible like I expected luckily. My part of the system I use has been acting up all day but I think I have the idea of how to use it now which makes me feel better after messing around with it, I just can't wait till these bugs are worked out of the system . It will make my job easier in the long run so I'm all for it but I'm gonna need a drink for all my headaches when I get home today.

BTW......Nothing came of that date I had last week. Guy was a dud but now I have my first date under my belt and that makes me feel a bit better. I don't know why but it dose. I'm a weirdo, I know.

I've been soo busy freaking out about work and helping my parents finish the damn kitchen remodel (will it ever end!) that I have been at a loss for words. I so much want to enjoy my summer by going biking, hiking, fishing and all that crap but have been unable because for lack of time, being tired and losing my motivation when I do have time. Blaa-Blaa-Blaa I know its all excuses but seriously the time has been passing and not much has happened on my end other then my necessary chores. Ok yes I have got to a couple street fairs, gone to a couple great concerts and done a few other fun things this summer but I want it a jam packed thrill fest, I'm so hard to please I know. This weekend I am going out of town and hopefully will be outdoors doing fun stuff for most of it. My plan is to see a movie (Pirates of the Caribbean), read like a mad woman, take some nice walks outside, and take some pictures while I'm at it.

Officially over........I can't wait till next time!

The 2005-2006 With_Teeth Tour has made its last stop. I'm so happy I got to see NIN twice on this tour, each concert was truly amazing. They know how to put on a damn good show. I do wish that maybe I could of got backstage on one of the shows but I couldn't afford it so maybe next tour I can try to do that. I look forward to the next album, hopefully it will not be so long till we see it as in the past. I do wish Trent a good restfully time off. Enjoy it man, you deserve it!!!

~ Childhood Memories~

My best memories as a child are from my summers spent with my grandparents who lived in a small town in eastern Colorado.
One of my favorite memories was going down to the creek with the kids I was friends with next door. There was this creek that was in cow pasture down in the valley behind the town, we would go there to catch tadpoles and play in the water. We had so much fun! I have never been great at swimming but I never remember being afraid when we would wade in the water up to our chests and splash around. When we would go home we would have to be sprayed off with the garden hose just to enter the house because we were so mucky and slimy. When I have gone back as an adult I look back at that creek and now it looks SO disgusting but I loved it as a kid. I guess that's the great thing about being a kid you don't worry about trivial stuff you just worry about having fun.

Monday night..............Definitely not football

I went on my first date sense I have entered singledom again. First date I have been on in years so it was so strange but it went fine. We met for dinner and went for a walk on clear creek in down town golden. It was nice, we talked a lot. He is definitely a more outgoing person then me but we still had a fair amount of things in common so it worked out pretty well I think. But when the date came to a close I freaked out and didn't know what to do, I kinda froze. I ended up giving him a hug thought it was more me then him in that. That's the thing I hate about first dates, how do you know the right thing to do. Well thank god it was dark when we parted he couldn't see how flushed I got when I freaked out, I'm always so obvious by my coloring if I'm nervous of not.

saddle issues

I think if I had been given a saddle that fit me I would of enjoyed going horseback riding but my legs were to short to fit into the stirrups so I was uncomfortable not long after I started to ride. I wish I would of noticed to problem right away but I’m not used to riding horses and how saddles should be set up. I asked after I noticed the problem if it could be fixed so I could be more comfortable and enjoy my ride in safety and they said they couldn’t do anything because all the stirrups were the same length at the shortest as what I had and they could not put me on a child’s saddle because I was an adult. I’m probably not going to go horseback riding again because this isn’t my first time and I have had problems with something each time.
