yuck yucker yuckiest
ok. no partay tonight for me. i wanted to go, but didn't have anyone that could go. all i could think about was how cool the movie must have been and how awesome suburban love junkies would be. i sat at home and did nothing.
well, that's overexaggerated. i did a little. basically i played on the computer in photoshop and did a few backgrounds for friends' ljs. fun stuff. right? yeah. it kept my mind working.
i'm going to early service tomorrow because the youth choir is singing. so, sing loud c-heart and anna-undy. you guys are rockin'.
i worked today. we had one kid. 2 adults. safe sanctuary policy. it actually took both of us too… this kid is brilliant, and was incredibly bored with playing like any normal 5 year old. he goes to a montessori school. but he's funny as crap. so it wasn't too bad today. i made money for playing. you can't beat that.
tomorrow night is the element halloween party. i have to find a costume.
happy halloween folks. although it doesn't seem like it to me.
and don't forget to set back your clock. woohoo… an extra hour!

It is a mistake to try to look too far ahead. The chain of destiny can only be grasped one link at a time.
Sir Winston Churchill
Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
Albert Einstein
No Christian and, indeed, no historian could accept the epigram which defines religion as 'what a man does with his solitude.'

halloween surprise?
ok, so i was excited about the halloween party.
but, now, maybe not so much. none of my friends can go. so i'll most likely be sitting on my butt watching scary movies to celebrate.
dang, i was really wanting to see 'hide and creep' and the suburban love junkies.
if anyone wants to go, gimme a shout.
halloween surprises
i won tickets on the radio today. woohoo.
i called in for tickets to atrox on z100.5. i couldn't believe that i was the 10th caller. i was so excited about getting to go see atrox. i was only about 5 miles up the interstate from tuscaloosa on my way home, so i did a u-turn and headed to pick up the tickets.
i then called a friend to see if she wanted to go with me… then i called to see when holli mack was gonna be working atrox. that will teach me to get excited too early.
when i got to the radio station, they apologized for the goof. the tickets weren't for any night this weekend, but for tonight only. i was bummed. i couldn't go tonight. but, they made it better… i got me and a friend on the guest list for the halloween party at workplay on saturday night with the surburban love junkies. so that isn't too shabby.
i like halloween. it's a fun time. and halloween has doubled with daylight savings time. so i'm definitely a fan.
the good, bad and ugly.
the good:
children's moment went well. that's good… because that may have been the most nervous that i've been in a REALLY long time. i saw matt w and anna today at contact. and they're rockin'. and i love my sunday school class… and my church.
the bad:
i have a headache. i'm tired of my head hurting… i don't know why it's hurting… but i have a feeling that it's because of my crazy eating for this weekend. who knows. i didn't make it to help with youth tonight because of homework. and i still have too much to do.
the ugly:
ok, so cards are down now in the series by 2 games. ugh. maybe the beautiful city and nice weather of the STL will do some good for the boys. let's hope so. we'll see on tuesday/wednesday. but still, the redbirds are loved… go cards!
the up and up
on a more positive note…
GO CARDS!!!!!!!!
and still, ROLL TIDE. there are great things to come i believe… regardless of how we did… i must remember that we still played well. especially against a ranked team. wahoo.
but for now, it's from one sport to another… and from one state to another. 
let's go cards….
heartbroken
i'm not gonna lie. i'm completely brokenhearted. i even cried when it happened.
i thought we lost the shot on the 4th and 6. but, pennington got a second chance! and what did he do? he blew it. i mean, come on. there were so many moments today when i seriously wonder why pennington is starting… and not guillon. i know that i don't know the whole story behind it… but i mean, what the crap. no words can convey what goes through my mind when pennington does the things he does.
cbs said it right… there's no way that pennington can play at the level that brodie could play. in my mind, 'amen' resounded.
now i'm in such a bad mood. i was so hopeful today… to beat tennessee would have been SO huge today. it would be what alabama really needs to push their confidence level to match their level of playing ability.
there is still much hate for UT, and even more for phil fulmer.
sorry for the negative post… but i had to vent it somewhere.
but to be positive, the defense played really well. and so did the line. we just made a few stupid decisions… but i am proud of alabama for playing hard against tennessee. we just HAVE to continue to play hard the rest of the season.
professor sella, pt. 2
today must have been 'scare emily to death on her way to lunch' day or something. maybe too many people are getting prematurely excited about halloween. who knows. anyways, it's been weird today.
the first scary incident was as i was walking on a quad sidewalk, leaving astronomy. i heard this loud bustle from an overhead tree, and like 15 squirrels come running down. ok, so 6. it seemed like 15… squirrels actually running TOWARD you is a totally different scenario. why were they running down? because the bustle was a freakin' huge owl. i looked up and he looked at me. i swear, that bird was about 2 1/2 feet long. good gosh. it freaked me out just making eye contact. i was afraid that he was gonna attack me along with the squirrels. i'm wondering still what it looked like to other students who saw me.
so then i'm continuing my walk to lunch. all of a sudden, this bike whizzes about a foot and a half in front of me, with a 'ding ding' of the bell. first i jumped. then, i looked… it was PROFESSOR SELLA (if you don't remember him, <a href="http://www.livejournal.com/users/emily_dmc/51132.html">read here</a>.
. apparently, i figured out 2 new things about him… 1. he got a new bike. 2. he must not be able to drive anything, including a bike because he almost ran over me and another student as i kept watching him. crazy, senile old man.
bummer of the day/week/month: part of my commute has now been changed because of the <a href="http://www.al.com/newsflash/regional/index.ssf?/base/news-9/1098380341327470.xml&storylist=alabamanews">freakish tanker accidents</a> that happen right in the junction (the same thing happened 2 1/2 years ago, minus the crazy driver who caused the tanker to wreck). geez… something is cursed on malfunction junction. i was in school the last time it happened… and i had to change my school commute. same thing again. so now, instead of going 59 to 65 to get home… i have to go 59 to 459 to 65. and it adds 30 mins. my commute home from tuscaloosa is now an hour and a half… and even more gas. hopefully it won't take longer than fixing the 65 bridge. so, that's definitely a yuck.
and just because i wanted to see if i was truly a nerd…
