Black and White

I've been wanting to do my room in black and white FOREVER. I've been looking online and have found the perfect furniture...if only!

Bunny in a Ball

On Saturday night Jason demanded that I come over. I had already been on his side of town earlier with his sister and was not interested in driving back. He finally convinced me that if I came back over he would fill my gas tank. When I got there he kept insisting that I go into the kitchen but I was not interested and thought he was acting insane. Finally I gave in and walked towards the kitchen, when I got past his couch I spotted a cage with a VERY cute bunny in it. Jason informed me that it was for me to have at his house and that he had named it Bunny in a Ball...he's apparently very literal because the bunny has a ball in its cage that it likes to sleep in. I renamed the bunny Heff but it hasn't stuck. At any rate, I love the bunny.

Whoa!

I swear, I'm still alive, just been SUPER busy! I definitely have missed my quotes of the week and haven't had time to keep track of them like I usually do. Here are the ones I can remember, sorry it's not too many.

This is probably one of the best weekends I've had in awhile...

Thursday after work I took my blue one (blue with a black stripe down the middle) belt test for karate. This was the hardest and most exhausting of the belt tests I have taken so far, however, I passed my test and was the only one of my group who did not receive a re-test. After the test Jason's parents took us out to dinner.

Friday I went over to Jason's and we watched House for a few hours then ran errands and went shopping. I was able to pick-up my new glasses. I think they're pretty cute and my eyes are enjoying the occassional break from contacts. We headed to the studio, Jason worked and I played with some of the kids, practiced my form, and chatted. When it was over we stayed and goofed around with a few people for awhile.

Saturday I woke up and headed to the studio for a tournament. I was so excited because my parents were able to come down and watch. I took 2nd place in forms and 1st in sparring. After the tournament Jason, my parents and I went and ate at Frog N' Firkin on University.

Sunday I woke up and headed to Gilbert. My parents, Sara, Maecy and I loaded into the car and headed to Glendale for Cokie's graduation party. It was really fun and I enjoyed seeing the extended family. Maecy and I spent a few hours in the pool, we listened to Brad and Grandpa play music then we headed home. I went over to Neiko's and hung out with him and Derek.

Today I woke up and Julia came over. We made French toast and went to Target. Afterwards I headed back to Tucson. The rest of today I've just been lazy, watching TV, and eating. It feels so good to relax.

I loved this weekend. I loved being able to spend time with Jason, my family and my friends all within a few days. I wish Gilbert and Tucson were closer.

I put my money in the stack, take the step back, wonder, "Where my Laura Ann at?" She's probably buying Guess Jeans, cause my baby, well she only want the best things!

Today I Got New Glasses!

Thursday was my last day of work last week so when I got off I headed to the house I was sitting. I quickly got changed and headed to karate. I came home and watched Ten Things I Hate About You then headed to bed.

Friday I woke up and headed to the eye doctor. I was able to get new contacts and glasses! Woohoo! Afterwards I headed to the mall because my favorite store, Love Coulture opened. I was able to get quite a few things because of their grand opening sale. I met Jason for lunch then worked for him a few hours because he had a demo that evening. We loaded up his truck and karate kids then headed to the demo. His kids did an AMAZING job and lots of people inquired about the studio. After the demo him and I went to Macoroni Grill for dinner.

Saturday I woke up and headed to the karate studio for a kicking class. After the class Jason and I went to lunch then watched a movie. I took a nap while he helped his dad. We met back up and went to Target and Chick-A-Filet. We met up with our friend Don and watched The Knowing.

Sunday I woke up and headed to a house I might be renting. I had lunch with them and then visited the family I babysit for. I went home and took a long nap then went to dinner with Jason and visited with his family.
