this is Braves country

I'm incredibly sorry to have disappointed anyone by not posting anything this past week, although I don't believe there was anyone to disappoint, but I have been one busy lady.
Between work, working out, orientation at GA Southern, and sleeping I haven't had much time to do things like blog :/
However now I am awake at the late hour of 3am and feel like writing about my day!
It was a mixture of both being lazy and quite productive, which always makes for the best of days, I believe. Woke up, went to work out with the best friend - Jordan. Did a little bit of shopping at my favorite store, Target, and then went to Turner Field to see the Braves play the Nationals. I like to believe I brought the Braves a little bit of luck by coming to the game, but I'm fairly sure they didn't need it. When the 7th inning stretch was over my right arm was starting to get sore from all of the impressive tomahawk chopping I was doing. $9 tickets for seats that were never sat in, to my knowledge, but helped us sneak in to a lower level fairly close to the field behind 1st base made it even better. It also may have something to do with the company. Nothing is better than watching a 19 year old boy use binoculars throughout the game. The Braves ended up winning 5-0 and Strasburg wasn't as mighty as some might have thought. The Nationals made more calls to the bullpen than I made all night. I must say I do believe it was the most crowded, they said over 10,000 fans were there, and one of the best games I have ever been to.




And that's the fun for Monday. My weekend was spent driving to and from Statesboro, checking out the campus, and working. Although it certainly wasn't the most fun weekend of the summer it certainly was a good time spent with my mama :D.
Tomorrow I have big plans for myself that involve working out some more, selling clothes, cleaning out my car, getting my sister a birthday present, and the list goes on and on. Hopefully I will wake up at a decent hour, but looking at the time now I can't be so sure. Either way I am determined to get certain things done tomorrow and who knows, maybe I'll relax for a little bit too!
I do believe I have worn myself out and will now go to sleep and hope that tomorrow is as good as today was!

Just a side note: Steak n' Shake at night is slow as molasses and not worth the wait.

Everything, must belong somewhere...

Another gorgeous day in Atlanta. Also a good day to be a little lazy. I love the beginning of the week because I don't have to work and nothing stops me from sitting around reading a good book or taking a nice cat nap. Speaking of...




Gizmo decided it was a nice day for a nap as well. He is my kitten, who is not so much of a kitten anymore, that unfortunately lives with my mom instead of myself. Lately however I have been making the 20 minute drive between houses much more frequently to spend time with my mama and friends home from college. So Mr. Gizmo has been getting tons of attention lately. It seems I am spending more time there than I am at my own home. Another reason I have been over there so frequently is that my gym is there. My summer plan is to get healthy and to lose a few pounds. However I must remember not to ever go on a Tuesday night again. It was ridiculously crowded tonight and there was no room for lil' ol' me. Oh well I got my time on the bike in at least, I'll just have to work extra hard tomorrow!

And now after a lovely dinner of homemade pizza, salad, and a glass of wine I am back to the relaxing atmosphere of the beginning of the day. It's time to settle down with my new favorite book, "The Sea of Monsters", which I know is a children's book and I am perfectly okay with that. Children's books and I have a new relationship, I can see it lasting for a long time!

Hoping Percy Jackson wins the fight....

and I invent the world again...

My first ever blog, what an occasion! Certainly someone should put on some good music and make a few margaritas. However for tonight I am settling for just good music and a glass of water. I am not terribly sure how much I will be able to keep up with this in the coming months. Come August I will not only be starting school up again, but I will also be a transfer student in a new town where I don't know many people. Which is frightening and incredibly exciting at the same time. I do hope my blog-writing will not suffer, but I make no promises. Up until then I can promise to provide you with what, in my opinion, is fantastic music and art.

Today marks the beginning of Summer and I must say I thouroughly enjoyed the entire 12 hours of sunlight. I also spent the day getting all kinds of crafty and attempting to take pretty pictures of my work.

Any thoughts on either?



I am attempting to make jewlery in hopes of earning a little more cash, but unfortunately my mother and I seem to like what has been made far too much and end up keeping things. Oh well at least I am having fun making them.

I do believe that this first entry is a little dissapointing, so I suggest you go and download "At Night" by Jonathan Richman and then think a little better of me due to my music selection.

Hoping for another gorgeous day tomorrow!
