Isn't she lovely...

So I'm down in Denver, Arvada, specifically (love suburbs!! =]) and life is...fun?

Okay, truth...
I'm kind of slacking...
I'm not going sight-seeing...
I'm not socializing...
I'm not doing any homework other than reading the materials...
But that's just during the day.

I arrived Sunday morning --nothin like 95 down the highway-- and went to church with Amanda and met some friends, met her granny, took a nap...then we were off to the Grizzly Rose, a country bar in town, and we went line-dancing, which was awesome...
But come Monday, Amanda has a nine-five job. Well, sort of, I think it's more like 4 than 5...but anyway...
So I sleep in. And listen to music. Write some more in a story I'm working on. Did I watch a movie? Hmmm...but then Amanda's home and we're off to Aunt Ruth's for dinner, which was great, only, what is it with these people and skim milk??
But unimportant, forget that...
Tuesday...
Sleep in a little less...listen to music...read comics...write some more for story...chat a little with granny --Harriet-- and eat some food. Cheerios is breakfast of choice here? Okay. Then Amanda's home, and awesome, she has another job lined up for when she resigns the end of the month. To celebrate? Well, I have plans with cousins...you wanna come with? Of course she does...and we go, great time, and then, what? A horror movie? Me? For real?
(I've never seen one in theaters before and tend to walk out of the room at home!)

But Daybreakers was actually quite awesome...though there was that one scene...
Blah
Ouch
Splash/Splat

Good times, and what's this? No nightmares...huh...

Wednesday...
Sleep in even less...music...comics...story...day-time television...Robert Pattinson's English accent just gets easier and easier haha...or was that on Tuesday? Days kind of blur...and what's this I hear? Bible study is canceled tonight so plans I thought we had are no more...but wait. Game night? I'm up for it. Good food, good times...and what was that game called? I lost so I guess it doesn't matter...
Thursday...
The adventure begins...up early. Only a few moments to myself before I'm off. Shopping. An hour in Best Buy at least before I finally decide I don't want a single person more to ask if I'm okay, so I bought a History Channel presentation on vampires and my first ever horror flick of my own...but the cover is pink, and the language is Japanese, so I think I might be safe. Maybe...more shopping then. WalMart only sells cute dresses to plus sizes. Skinny girls don't get cute, they get skanky. Why am I so skinny? How many people want to be fat? Strange...driving down the road, no idea where I'm going...and I found a Kohl's. Victory!! And after ten dresses in the changing room, I'm down to two...and I go for pink. And paid less than fifty percent for it. Then I get lost again...but I found the library. And a lovely lady gave me maps and told me where I could find a park...so I'm off...in the wrong direction. And instead I find an art gallery, and two-plus hours and several sketches later I call Amanda for directions back home. Where I'm only there a short time before we're off to Grandma Judy's for dinner, we watch The Jetsons Movie and then back to Aunt Ruth's where we're dog-sitting for RIP April's sister...and somehow, being able to fit in one bed as averse to bed and floor, we stay up and it's actually like a girls' night sleepover thing...

Which was dimmed when we learned a friend of a friend had committed suicide.
Lord bless that boy's family, and give them peace...
But even if he gave up, life still goes on for me...

So it's Friday.
And I have no plans except to do laundry and take the dogs for a walk.
And though spring break hasn't been the most exciting...
I think I like it like this...
But maybe I'm crazy...


Crazier, by Taylor Swift

I've never gone with the wind
Just let it flow
Let it take me where it wants to go
Til' you opened the door
And there's so much more
I'd never seen it before
I was tryin' to fly but I couldn't find wings
But you came along and changed everything

You lift my feet off the ground
You spin me around
You make me crazier crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me Crazier Crazier Crazier

I watched from a distance as you
Made life your own
Every sky was your own kind of blue
And I wanted to know how that would feel
And you made it so real
You showed me something that I couldn't see
You opened my eyes and you made me believe

You lift my my feet off the ground
You spin me around
You make me crazier crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier crazier crazier

Ohhhh

Baby you showed me what livin' is for
I don't wanna hide anymore
Oh Ohh

You lift my feet off the ground
You take me away
You make me crazier crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier crazier crazier
Crazier
Crazier
