jealousy.
I have it.
my sister just came by.
with her new ride.
her and erich bought a......
2003 Toyota Tundra.
all black.
murdered out as Jill puts it.
jealous.
not many of you know this about me
but i'm a truck girl.
not just any truck.
it's gotta be toyota.
this baby has got huge tires.
a 3 inch lift...
i have to use the oh sh*t handles to get in.
love it.
went for a quick drive
(jill drove of course, i'll wait to ask for a drive.........
till, tomorrow).
came home to my 97 Corolla and 98 Honda.
at the humble life of driving sedans.
Ok, enough of me being jealous.
...or atleast blogging about it.
they totally deserve this truck.
................
maybe I'll ask her to put me in their will...
for the truck.

a few things I've decided:
1) I'm not fancy, so I should stop trying on fancy clothes. just not me.
2) I love wearing a t-shirt and jeans, I am that girl.
3) I'm really into high tops right now.
Jeremy and i went out to the vans outlet today. got some sweet kicks.
I've tried on fancy shoes, slouchy boots, trendy ballet flats..just can't do it. guess it's the tomboy in me. I've tried all the new styles of shirts on; but always resort back to a v-neck or plain white t. I've tried on cropped jackets, stylish trench coats, and dressy pea coats; but I'd rather wear a hoodie w/a blazer. i always admire (kinda jealously) the stylish girls I know, wishing I could dress like them, but well, I'm okay that I don't because it's just not me, and I like who I am.
Funny how you continue to deal with self-image issues no matter what age you are.

so Jill and I were shopping at WinCo this afternoon (which was INsane for some reason) and we were walking down an aisle when Jill pointed this out. . . um, gross! Seriously, a whole chicken in a can. already cooked. no need to refrigerate. does that gross you out? seriously people. i don't even know what to say.
Jeremy and I met up with our friends Kayla and Marcus at the Downtown Eatery last night (I love that place). It was a great night, we had incredible conversation with those two. We have the pleasure of shooting their wedding this April, I'm super excited-I think it's going to be a super fun wedding, because well, Kayla and Marcus are super fun. Kayla and I have been friends for.... what 12 years or so? (whaddaya think Kayla-since I know you're reading my blog, you little blog stalker! :) I absolutely love picking up the pieces of old friendships like nothing has changed.
anyways, that's all for tonight.
loves you all.

p.s. how amazing was the weather today? seriously-i wore flipflops, jeans, and a t-shirt. amazing.

two things I love right now:
1) my new flatiron. seriously. i love my hair right now.
2) my new striped sweater. i love target.
(okay-i guess that was 4 things...)
two things I hate right now:
1) my slightly congested head. i hate feeling the sickness begin.
2) my honey isn't here. late late tonight I'll see him. *cheers*
school started up again for me this week. and man on man am I having a hard time getting back into the groove. 1 more year. I can do it.
i've been thinking I want to join a gym again. sick of the married weight I've put on over the last year and a half. but do I really want to pay 20 bucks a month when I could just get my lazy ass in gear and go running. think i'll go buy some new workout pants (since I only have shorts and it's freezing outside) and hopefully that'll inspire me. I love walking downtown where we live, so why wouldn't I love running around here. plus, since I'd be seeing people all the time-I'd have to run the whole time...when I used to "run" alot, I would walk for a while until I saw someone, and then I'd start running again so they wouldn't think I was lame...totally a mental thing. . .
took an hour nap today when I got home from work...so so nice. i love love naps.
well i'm going to heat up some leftovers for dinner... eat a piece of cake that Jeremy brought home for me last night..and watch the new Grey's Anatomy. How lame that the Office is a rerun tonight. seriously.
loves you all.

my parents just dropped by for a few.
made them triple americanos.
was baking chocolate chip cookies too.
my dad says...
"amy, you're so efficient in the kitchen.."
:)
such a funny little complement
but man-oh-man did it make me smile.
i love that feeling you get when you realize...
someone close to you is proud of you.
'twas a beautiful day today...
i love redding in the 60's.
ah..........
should've gone for a walk.
it's weird with Jeremy being back to "work"..
i've gotten used to him being home all the time..
wishing for some quiet, amy time..
now I can't wait for him to come home.
goodness, i love him like-whoa.
ok kids.
time to get ready for dinner.
heading over to the Harrison's.
2 of my favorite people, ever.
taking cookies and limoncello.
kelly's making lasagna.
oh snap.
this will be a good night.
love to you all.

geez.. I haven't blogged in forever. Guess nobody missed me though, eh? sheesh.........
so... 2009. crazy.
it's been a good year so far. really good.
went up to Ashland with Nancy and Evan this weekend.
dinner at the Standing Stone.
drinks at the Black Sheep and the Siskyou Pub.
snow falling on the streets.
cozy sleeping at the Plaza.
oh how I love Ashland.
especially with friends.
jeremy got some great pictures of us being ridiculous..
maybe he'll post them someday.
i bought 2 exciting things today.
a new down alternative comforter for Jeremy and I
and the new Kanye West album(808&Heartbreak) for me.
don't judge me. i love it.
i'm watching food network right now...
getting inspired to cook again,
i can't wait to have a dining table that we can actually sit around.
i love our place here but that's my one bummer
a lack of kitchen space.
someday.
. . . .
ok.
i promise that i'll blog more in the days to come.
loves you all.
