randomness

Our room is bare. Nothing in it but a dresser and some nails on the walls. It's freshly vacuumed, base board dusted, and ready for Friday. That's right, my friends, the bed we ordered way back on July 7 is FINALLY done and will be delivered Friday morning. I can hardly wait. My bank account can, but I can't. In order to accomodate the movers and free up all possible room, our king mattress is in our family room and everything else is in here:

Not as bad as Mer and Clay's 'hell' once was, but pretty crammed nonetheless. Not to mention the family room (and yes, I did move our mattress all by my lonesome...and somebody better call a doctor because my freaking pythons are huge ). Sheesh.

In other news, I'm a freaking winner. That's right, I put my name in a raffle type thing on this scrapbooking blog I check out sometimes, and I won like 50 bucks worth of stuff...exhibit A:

paper, holiday stamps, chipboard stuff, stickers, ribbon, etc., etc., etc.

The last jaw dropping tidbit I have for all you cyber stalkers is Matt's leg hair jungle. Yes, one boring Sunday afternoon I twisted a bunch of Matt's leg hairs into little spikes. He's a good sport.

oooohhhhhhhh

aaaahhhhhhhh

i know, i know: i'm talented.

what can i say?!

Comeback Kid!

This post is actually Matt speaking, I feel the need to say that because Jess does almose all of the posting on this thing. But I read an interesting article in Velo News that said Lance Armstrong is coming out of retirement to race in 5 races next year, one of them being the Tour de France. My hunch is that Astana (his new team) is going to crush everyone. I know there aren't many cycling fans out there, but this is pretty big time and I am pumped for '09. Here is the link if anyone is interested in reading the article: http://velonews.com/article/82892/sources-lance-armstrong-coming-back

a little bit of random-ness

a funny picture i took the other night.

you think that was good...you should see the one on his hinney...

big feet. you know what that means. big shoes.

this is was a 5.5 and a 13 look like when put side by side. i suppose the only advantage of having size 13 shoes (aside from the obvious) and being just over five feet would be superb balance. other than that, just a big pile of ugly.

hmmm. this post is a bit on the raunchy side. suppose i should've posted that as a preface as opposed to my final thought.

oh well.

happiest day of my life

but i can't post about it yet.

and no, i'm not pregnant.

baby calf...

this is for you Kev

R is for romance...

I knew Matt had been planning something for our anniversary, but he wouldn't tell me what...not even a clue. When I got in my car for work this morning there was a note that told me to change my clothes after work, have two 5 dollar bills, and to wait for my next clue. The intrigue ensued. My clue led me to another clue, which led me to a text message clue, which lead me, finally, to Little Dell Reservoir, where I found a kayak and Matt cooking hamburgers (my fav). He also had Diet Dew, doughnuts, and Jalepeno chips...what a stud. After scarfing down our burgers--so as not to get attacked and murdered by the massive swarm of bees--we lugged the freaking heavy kayak down to the water and paddled around. It was lots of fun and was a total suprise. I know this is sappy and even on the cliche side of things, but I really do have the best husband in the world. He's not usually the most romantic guy I've ever met, but when he lets it out, it's pretty stinkin' good.

me and my impecable balance gondoliered our way across the reservoir...with my nice, white wunderwear hanging out...nice, i know.

i love you

waiting for matt to get our camera

P.S.
Matt & I decided to not exchange gifts--as we have a new bed coming soon and are focusing on paying for that...but I couldn't resist. I save stupid things live movie stubs, concert tickets, etc., and modged podged them on a picture frame...not bragging, cause I'm not crazy about how it turned out, but I am excited to try the whole modge podge thing again.

dum, dum, da-dum...

Nearly three years ago I married my best friend. While it would be a lie to say it's been easy, it's no stretch of the truth to say that it's been the best three years of my life. I couldn't have found a better match if I would have hand picked each separate bit and created him myself, and for that, I'll be forever grateful.

Here's to you, and many, many more years.

I love you Matt.
