Insane on the Accu-tane!

Not really, but this stuff is harsh! I've been taking a dose every day for three weeks and my face is falling apart. I look like some zombie monster that's been dead for a couple of years, just rose from the grave and has to go to work without frightening all it's co-workers. I refuse to leave the house and Jeff gets mad at me because I turn all the lights off in the house. I might as well be a vampire. So zombie/vampire. That's what Accutane has turned me into.
On a lighter note, two weddings coming up in sept. Can't wait.
Jeff decided to rip out our master bathroom and that's been a fabulous adventure. I swear, once we get one project done he has to move onto another. I can't take it anymore. If he doesn't finish his house projects soon I'm going to suck his blood and eat his brains (because that's what Zombie's and Vampires do).
In the process of ripping out the tile that was cemented in, there's dust covering EVERYTHING in our bedroom. And guess how many times I cleaned the kitchen yesterday? THREE! I feel like all I ever do is clean!
Which by the way, Jeffrey and I have had an ongoing argument for probably the last three years and maybe my family members nad loved ones can help us sort it out.
Jeff thinks it's necessary to leave at least two pairs of shoes in the middle of the kitchen floor. He says that way he can slip them on when he walks out the door. I don't agree. He can have ONE pair of shoes and they can be put aside next to the door, but I've counted up to FIVE pairs of shoes right in the middle of the floor before!
Who's right? Who's wrong? Let it be known that our fate is in your hands (and if you don't side with me I'll suck your blood and eat your brains)
Happy Wednesday to you all!

Please vote as many times as you want, even if you don't know me and want to vote, DO IT!

Is Twilight bad for your love life?

There was an article titled the above on Yahoo today that really bothered me. I'm a big fan of Twilight (except for the last book) and I really was entertained, but I really think that the article had a point. to read click here.
The reason why i am posting about this is because it's something that I've struggled with my entire life and still struggle with today.
I was never what I thought 'a sappy girl' who loved to play house, wear make-up, and go shopping. It seemed like a big waste of time to me and the girls always seemed a little . . . well . . . dumb. Whenever a girl sat and talked about her shoes I thought to myself 'and guys really enjoy being around this stuff?'
I think I am getting alittle off subject here, but the point is the article was claiming the book influences young girls to be dependent on relationships. Making them NOT independent and I aboslutely agree. I've fought my entire life against this sterotype always wanting to do things that peopel said I couldn't do. I can't tell you how many times people think I have a low IQ just because of my hair color, or they don't think I know anything because I am a girl.
But how many girls are out there contradicting this?
I get so sick and tired of reading people's blogs (then stop reading them I know) and they're about a girl who was married at 19, has two kids, and lives to serve her husband and children. I know there is nothing wrong with that, but I think women should have oustide interests too. Have things in life that are just for them so that when their kids leave they don't turn into the ward gossip because they don't have anything better to do. This is just my opinon so don't think i have anything against being a mom. I just think women take the easy road out a lot of the time because they are enabled by those around them. If women were forced to step up and take care of things for themselves I think they would surprise not only the people around them, but themselves as well. You'd be surprised what you're capable of when pushed. . . . but a lot of women don't do it. Sad. . . if our ancestors who fought for women's rights could see us now.

Fun and Lazy weekend

Jeff and I went to Jay and Nicole's wedding reception and they looked so happy, their wedding was very pretty and they had such cute pictures. We met up with Spence and his date and afterward we went to Dairy Keen marking this the third meal in a row that Jeff had had a hamburger. I couldn't do another burger, I had onion rings. Spence and Kristen then went to G.I. Joe and Jeff and I went to best buy to see if we could find a DVD. They had their 3.99 bin so we ended up buying SIX!
We pulled into the neighborhood with our stuff only to find someone parked in front of our house. It turned out to be Autumn and Erik sneaking around and leaving us a note. They ended up staying for a little bit and even picked me up some dinner and Jeff a shake. Then by ten-thirty Jeff was off to bed so Autie, Erik and I watched the movie until about eleven fifteen and then they were outta there. So that left me, to finish the movie all by myself. Why does this always happen?
Saturday we were working on the house (Jeff painting, myself cleaning) and I got a text. My cousin had gotten his mission call. So we were off to Alpine with the family to watch him open it. Everyone speculated on where he would go, I video taped him opening his call while his dad snapped some stills. Sean's going to LA!
Afterward we picked up some Chili's and went home to relax and watch a movie only to have April call me up. She and her husband headed over and we hung out for a bit. Jeff drank a little bit of a red bull (which he says you can feel it eating the enamel off your teeth) then played Eric in a game of foosball (sp?)
Then we made April and Eric watch the ninja episode of south park. I don't think they much cared for it, they left after that. Then it was off to bed! Boy my Jeffy sure loves to go to bed early!

Happy Birthday Jeffy!

July 29th 2009 Jeffrey David Adams turned 28!
In celebration of this wondrous achievement we had Sunday birthday cake at my grandparents house. Jeff got a couple Blu-Rays and a caramel apple that he was so kind enough to share with me. Thanks everyone for all the presents!
On Wednesday we went to dinner at Maccaroni Grill with Jeff's family then we came back and had cake.
I really wish I would remember to take my camera to these events, then I could populate my blog with pictures which I know is the only reason people look at blogs. However, just for fun I would like to mention a few things that make Jeff Jeff and why I love him so much:

- He can make me laugh and he tries really hard to do that every day
- He has no talent at doing impersonations at all, but that doesn't stop him from attempting. His current favorites are Seinfeld and Rocky.
- He never misses a day of work EVER! I wish I had co-workers that dependable.
- He argues with me. Although I don't really appreciate this it DOES keep me humble.
- He's the smartest guy I know, but is really humble about it.
- He disects movies with me. Who else can I watch a horrible movie with and have the time of my life? One movie in particular. . . the wicker man.
- His subtle way of getting me to do things. Example: He sits on the couch repeatedly saying 'we need to do laundry' until I finally get up and do it for him.
- The love for his personal shadow Rowdy who follows him around the house wherever Jeff goes.
- The rap's we make up in the car. We haven't done this in a while, but I like it when he uses the word 'ho'. It cracks me up.

Jeffrey. Love of my life. You're the biggest weirdo in the world and I wouldn't have it any other way. Hope you had a great birthday and remember mine is three months away. BETTER GET PLANNING! ; )
