i wish i could have watched the bachelor, but i'm at work.


so i hate north carolina drivers, i've decided!
me and aaron had a horrendous experience the other day driving to raleigh for this art-fest thing downtown (way fun, by the way). they closed down the major interstate to one lane, so of COURSE people have to drive crazy and try to go past the line, and cut over...and basically just screwed everything up. it took us one hour to go 1 1/2 miles to the next exit. CRAP! people kept going around the line on the shoulder and it was SO annoying. one point, me and aaron decided to take a stand and get half into that lane, so we could stop those jerks, but they STILL kept going around us in their little jeeps and stupid acuras. even an ELEMENT betrayed us! blasphemy! it was terrible. at one point, we thought we had a backer behind us, but alas, they too were just trying to go around. one honda civic hatchback against the world. we lost.
when we fINAlly made it to the art festival, it was totally fun. it reminded me of austin. there was a bunch of pottery, so that was neat. i can't wait until i can take my next class! this time, a bunch of work girls want to join me. should be fabulous.
me and aaron move soon, and we haven't packed at ALL. i can't wait to paint our new walls and buy patio furniture and plant a garden. i think i'll buy a 'garden claw'. do you think that they're only available thru the info-mertial? mertial. that looks wrong. we're going to cut down a bunch of ivy that's all over the backyard ground, and try to plant some grass-seeds so that mason can have a backyard. does anyone have any tips on growing grass? i know you need to water it alot, but that's all i got.
i want to get one of those seat-hammocks for our front porch. i think that will be excellent. i can't wait to read magazines and watch the passerbyers on duke street. !

aaron wants to get mason a friend. like a bulldog or a dalmation. i think that sounds fun, but i can't decide if that would make life easier, or harder. i think i'd want a more chill dog, like a BASSET HOUND. so that he/she can sit and watch movies with me. but then would mason drive him/her crazy? should i get another hyper dog?

pros:
another dog=fun
mason can run himself silly and quit jumping all over us
mason and the new dog can be friends

cons:
one more dog to have someone watch for us if we go out of town
more moo-lah
probably has to be a boy dog so that there's no 'issues'


i guess that's it.

so those puppies are CUTE. oh my gosh. july- is it easier to have 3 cats vs 1? you, my friend, are the pet expansion exPERt.

does anyone listen to amy winehouse? because you SHOULD if you don't.

i thought she was supposed to be all scandalous and angry, but she IS FANTASTIC! she's all bluesy and woNDerful. i wish i could sing like that. me and mason were listening to her today while i was trying to clean the casa.
still no progress on losing more weight...dang! summer is here, and i'm not bikini-ready! oh well. i bought some cute shorts today, so that's something.
i wish i were in london and paris. julie, have SO much fun for me, ok?
what do we think about the grey's anatomy finish? what was THAT about? sometimes i just wish people could be happy and not so self-depricating. !
i want one of these:

hopefully my car can hold out until the end of the summer, and we can save up!
i'm excited.

Ahhhh! Too many cute puppies in one post! To answer your question, having two cats made life easier, three has made it much harder. So just get two dogs, not three! :-) When we just had two cats it was nice because they played together and we didn't feel guilty being away all day at work and school because they didn't get lonely. And when I was researching getting two kittens, I read that when young animals have companions, they are a lot less likely to be destructive or bored. So there you go! :-)

Thoughts from a resident of a household of 2, sometimes 3 dogs: When we had only Megan's hyper dog, it was crazy. When we got my lazy, takes-naps all day dog, it made life better. They balance each other and keep each other entertained. When Megan's boyfriend brings over his dog, and there are 3, life is insane and the dogs spend a lot of time in the backyard going nuts. Conclusion: 2 is a good number. Draw the line at 2.
