not another manic monday!
hello!
i have had a most wonderful day.
my dad and i had eye appointments this morning and we knew half the office, what a laugh. and dad picked out the coolest new glasses for himself. the lady who helped us was such a dear, she continually kept saying, now Blaine, lets try these on! oh Blaine, what do you think of these? every sentence started with Blaine. but she wasn't annoying at all. she was very nice! and also had the hottest glasses on that i had ever seen.
next, i went for brunch with my mom, Jenna, Kyle, Kayden & Haylie and Jenna's mother in law, Beryl. i had the best hash browns ever. and my niece and nephew are the sweetest and most fun ever. kayden is getting a mohawk today. i'm super nervous to see him. i hope its cute.
then mom and i headed to the new walmart and i bought the most random and fun assortment of things. i took a picture for you all to see!
So, here we can see THE most fun little desk organizer i have EVER seen. it's so mini and it fits all my stationary stuff!!! i was very much in love with it from the moment i saw it.
next we have my plastic magazine/file organizers. MUCH needed, as i have some cardboard ones from IKEA and these are much sturdier.
then we have my tide to go stain remover! how fun! what a great thing for my purse. i can't wait to get a stain. hopefully not too big of one though!
and finally, my puffs to go Ultra tissues, which i actually came in a pack of 6. they are perfect for home, car, purse, work and school bag! ah!
not pictured here, i bought some Olay face toner and a huge box of Special K, but i didn't feel like going upstairs to retrieve those items. but they are not forgotten.
i spent much time looking at cds and pondered so long over which one to buy that i did not buy any. i considered many options. i looked at Keane (i have recently fallen hard for this band - check out a song called "bedshaped". i have the live version on my myspace but its better not live), The Fray, Goo Goo Dolls, Fergie, City & Color, and Gwen Stefani. then i thought about replacing my old cranberries cd that is long lost and was a favorite. couldn't decide so came home with nothing. hahaha. i ruled out fergie and gwen only because i was looking for a cd that Jeff would actually like listening to in the car on our drive to Edmonton. anyone have any other suggestions???
oh yes and Rascal Flatts on Friday night was sooooooooooooo awesome. here's a pic of jenna and I before the show:
we had wicked seats. I have some videos from Jenna's camera (I FORGOT MY CAMERA!!! i was so mad), but i will upload those on youtube and post them later. jenna has been bugging me to do this for forever. oops. my favs were My Wish, Broken Road and What Hurts the Most. oh yah and "skin" although i normally am totally sick of that song. performances are always different though. they make the songs come to life. it was completely amazing. they are 3 extremely extremely talented guys.
there was a gong show after the concert but i amn't (i wish that was a word. i use it secretly in my head all the time) going to get into that now. lets just say it involved missing out on hanging with the guys from Rascal Flatts at the Longbranch (okay not that they would talk to me but still, they were there and i coulda been too. who knows maybe i could've had a two step from one of them!) because i was too busy in the parking lot with a verrrrrrrry unhappy boyfriend, a non-existent tow truck and a part of the car on the ground that was supposed to be attached to the car. yep. not good.
well now that my day is half over and i haven't started my reading for my night class on tuesday, i am officially doomed. so i must go before i spend most of the night awake reading World Bank reports.
And America's Next Top Model starts again Wed night!!! YESSSSssssssssssssssssssssss.
i have saved up mega bucks for my edmonton trip (we leave thursday) so i am totally pumped to go shopping at Jacob, forever 21, the Aldo outlet, Ikea, MEC (we're getting new camping equip), and ALLLLLLllllllllllllll those other fabulous stores saskatoon doesn't have. yet. i am firmly believing that i can branch out from my regular "simple classic" style (aka boring. my shirt in the pic above shows this in and out) (my earrings are cool though. but they are jenna's!) and get a few pieces that are more exciting and slightly more trendy. not too trendy of course. no no, not me. i am not flashy! but even just a few accessories (earrings and headbands are on my list) and shoes will do the trick. and i totally want something polka dot. mmhmm. yummy.
okay world bank reports here i am.
bubye friends.

I love the new Walmart. It is so much fun to just walk around, it's amazing how you discover that there are things that you need to have that you never knew you needed to have.
so it's been a few days since i've checked your blog and i definitely had a lot to read! i think wal-mart is the greatest place on earth (other than disneyland and africa). i go in wanting nothing and come out with $100 worth of very useful stuff! is your new wal-mart a super center or power center or whatever they call those huge fancy ones with grocery stores and such?
jenna - did you get the msg i left you last night? hopefully you can figure out youtube by yourself! they are all on there under "my videos". and kayden's hair is totally tres cool. so is yours.
leah - i completely agree!!!
megan - ah disneyland. i've never had a bad day in disneyland! the newest walmart is a super center with the grocery and everything. its awesome!!!
i was going to leave a comment but it was just erased so never mind then!..... ok i was going to say have fun in edmonton! (and other things)
