Trip to The Country

This past week I was in Ohio visiting family and it was just my luck that the county fair was in town that week. Yeehaw! My family lives in the small town of Ottawa, Ohio where the fair is a BIG deal. My cousin Kylee showed two pigs and a feeder calf during the week. She won her division for one of her pigs! Woo!

Their fair is a lot different than here. I feel like our fair consists of more rides than animals and many Hispanics. The fair I went to is all about showing animals and there's a bunch of rednecks. :-) It was fun! My cousin Jordan and I experienced caramel apples covered in M&Ms. Quite good and highly recommended by us both.


Overall it was a fun trip. Any crazy county fair stories y'all have?

OHIO

Hey suckas!

Well basically I am in Ohio and just thought I'd let you all know I'm alive and not in any tornado or flood. I've been doing a whole lot of nothing, but sometimes that is very good.

I started reading The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis. It is VERY GOOD. It's basically a series of fictional letters written by Screwtape, an experienced demon, to his nephew Wormwood. Screwtape writes advice for Wormwood at how to ruin his "patient's" life and get him as far away from the "Enemy" (God) as possible.

My Absence

Friends and fellow bloggers,

I will be in Ohio this upcoming week and will not be back until next Sunday. So...please forgive me for the lack of blogs.

AND..


Check out this fun little diddy I made for Quest:

Line Up Ladies!

I was on AOL yesterday and noticed that David cook is sexy and single! Who knew?! Well, as I am taken by a wonderful boyfriend, those still in the hunt read on. People magazine comes out with a Single & Sexy Man list every year. Topping the list are David Cook, Mario Lopez, Adam Levine of Maroon 5, and Hunter Johannson, Scarlett's twin brother.


I will say, the list has gone down hill. I think you know it's getting bad when Britney Spears' brother Bryan shows up, Bret Michaels from Rock of Love, and a mediocre tennis player, James Blake.



Apparently the horse dudes are from Saturday Night Live. I'm not saying these last five or bad choices, I'm just saying...where are the Leo DiCaprio days?

The Encounter Room

I had the privalege of getting to decorate a very special room within the ministry center of my church, Seneca Creek. I was the "adult leader." Funny, huh.

Basically, me and two other girls decorated this room called "the encounter room." It's a place for spending time with God. We took a lot of the old decorations and created a new flair. We used earth tone colors. We created this paper tree using scrunched up paper. It was really fun!

Chuck Norris Says "Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less"

We all know gas prices have been rising and who is happy about that? No one. Well except maybe the Middle East. Anyways, it has come to my attention that Chuck Norris is no fan of rising prices either. People are demanding that Congress take action to drill here and drill now. More than 650,000 Americans have signed the "Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less" petition, including Chuck Norris, and that number keeps growing rapidly each day. In fact, he created a YouTube video to promote the campaign. I'm not really sure why the fact that Chuck Norris supports it is important, but I suppose it is because he could roundkick your face!

Watch this video and be sure to listen for my favorite lines:

"As Glen Vick said on his tv show, they've got their heads up their butts. Well, he said asses, but it's the same thing."

"Oh by the way, I'm Chuck Norris without my beard and I approve this message."



P.S. Let's talk about the fact he does not have a beard?

Nick Patria....how do you feel at the loss of this infamous beard?

Why Do We STILL Not Have Cable?!?!

Due to the second round of thunderstorms on Tuesday, my neighborhood is STILL without cable. However, according to the Pakistani Comcast worker, we have only been without cable since today.

I began thinking, how often does this happen? Not too much, according to Time Warner Cable and maybe this is why: "We consider a cable outage when there are two or more households without cable service in the same vicinity."

Let's break this statement down. So if only my house goes out I do not have a cable outage. Furthermore, what is vicinity? As of now I feel like my vicinity is contained to a circle around my house. And of course, my house is the only house in my circle around my house vicinity without cable. I mean really?! I think it is hysterical that after repeatedly calling the cable company they have decided to admit there is an outage here. Ya thinK!?
