Thank you, KOST 103.5, thank you.

Tonight, thanks to the KOST and Karen Sharp, I learned how to NOT to heat my house.

Bringing my BBQ inside and turning it on.

... Really? I had no idea. Thank you KOST for saving me from a burnt house this holiday season. I totally had my BBQ ready to just wheel inside if the temperature dropped just a few more degrees.

THAT was a close one.

Well... IT'S OFFICIAL!!

I'm ENGAGED!! All the rumors that you might have heard... they're true!

And now I have a ring on my finger to prove it! On Thanksgiving day Drew Proposed...

Let's just say that it involved a surprise scavenger hunt, a lifeguard tower, fishing Asians, a close call on a parking ticket, and of course... A RING!

I can't wait to get married to the most amazing guy in the whole wide world!!

Irrational Fear #2

Those of you who know me well, know that I have a couple irrational fears. My main irrational fear is flying grasshoppers, but I'm also totally afraid of parrots. Ridiculous...? Yes, I know, that's why I'm admitting it's irrational. But I'm still afraid of them. Their creepy voices, their gross looking beaks, and the fact that they can have a conversation with someone.... I'm getting the shivers just thinking about them.

A few weeks ago a new family moved into the place next to us. And guess what kind of pet they have? Yup, a parrot. But not just any parrot, a Spanish speaking parrot. The family is Hispanic, and so it would only make sense that their parrot would speak Spanish. I thought it was funny the first time I walked by their window and heard the bird speak a different language, but then i remembered that I'm totally afraid of parrots... then it wasn't funny anymore. Just creepy.

Boo creepy birds.

You're welcome Dad.

It's been a while... I know. I'm not in denial of the fact that I have been the worst blogger ever... i get it.

So, tonight, to break my non-blogging streak, I decided to share with you something that I did.

My dad likes pictures of me. He likes having pictures of me around the house, and he even has one in his wallet. Adorable... I know. Anyways... tonight, I was over at my parents house on their computer and I decided to take another (as if he could ever have enough) picture of myself for my dad to have around the house:

Then I put it as his backdrop on his computer.

The little favors that I do for you... You're welcome dad.

Dear Elizabeth,

Thank you for picking super cute bridesmaid dresses. Although I have never been in a wedding before, I have heard and seen some ridiculously hideous bridesmaid dresses. Thank you for loving us enough to not make us wear something like this:


Your friend and bridesmaid,
Annie

Soup-er Dinner

Tonight, after debating back and forth with Becky about where we should go out for dinner, we just decided to go to Ralph’s and get stuff to make dinner. We walked around for a little until we ended up following our noses to this new section of Ralph’s that has AMAZING soups made and ready to be eaten. Little did Becky and I know that Ralph’s has the best chicken noodle soup EVER, and that four Hawaiian rolls (in a cute little package) only cost 69¢.

Best dinner ever.

Thanks Ralph’s. My tummy is very satisfied.

Thank you!!

To everyone who planned and came to my surprise birthday lunch yesterday... THANK YOU! You made my day! It was so great to see all of you... I miss you all very much! Thanks for taking time out of your busy day to drive all the way down to Dana Point. I feel so loved.

Thanks for being my friends. I love you!

Burned out? or burnt out?... I don't know.

I feel like I have been uber boring lately... and, I'm sorry. I just don't have a ton to blog about. Therefore, I can't promise when my next blog will be. I still love reading all of your blogs... I just don't know the next time that I will actually be writting my own. To everyone who blogs on a regular basis... cheers to you! I love reading your blogs!

Reasons that I love my job #3

After an awesome meeting with Jake today about how we can reach more students in our community, we decided to take a break and play some guitar hero. Seriously, how many other jobs can you do that? Awesome.

The Good, the Bad, and the Horrible...

Right now Becky, Elizabeth and I are all laying on Becky's bed watching this cheesy show on TLC. It's uber bad, and even though the cheese factor is WAY over the top, I am sucked in... and Becky and Elizabeth are too.

Watching this show makes me think about all of the different commercials and TV shows out there. The good, the bad, and the horrible. So, I made a list, because I think that list's are fun. Which ones are my favorite (the good), which ones are dumb (the bad) and which ones are painful and make me want to change the chanel as fast as I can (the horrible).

The Good:
- The Office
- Gilmore Girls
- Ace of Cakes
- House
- GEICO commercials
- (most) Cingular commercials.
- Saturday Night Live
- Scrubs
- Full House
- Extreme Makeover: Home Edition
- Quaker Chewy Granola Bar commercials
- America's Funniest Home Videos (minus all the cheesy comments)

The Bad:
- Eastwood Insurance commercials
- Judge Judy
- Chanel 8 at 10:00 in the morning
- Diagnosis X (what I am watching right now)
- What not to wear
- Charmin Commercials
- Jiff commercials
- Nair commercials
- Pimp my ride
- Celebrity Rap Superstar (see this)

The horrible:
- I love New York
- Bryman College Commercials
- The People's court
- Divorce Court
- Jerry Springer (midget's fighting? And brothers and sisters dating... really? common...)
- The Flavor of Love
- Fanta commercials (I can't handle the dancers)
- Gossip Girl
- Car dealership commercials
- Date my mom, Next, Room raders (pretty much anything on MTV...)
- Soul Train

Oh, and one more thing... Bad actors and over actors kill me.

Did I miss anything?
