-Album Of The Moment-


Dead Mans Party


-Life & Stuff-

Spent yesterday in wonderful wonderful Prescott. Where it's always so much cooler and breezier than in Phoenix, and where everything has that small town feel. It's the closest thing to the East Coast you'll get here in Arizona.

Anyway, we went to spend some more time with the cousins. Lots of fun. There seemed to be some sort of hula-hoop/juggling party going on at the square, odd but cool. Went to the candy store! It's the best I got some of the taffy (it's the best taffy ever to grace the planet), and then we had dinner at Texas Roadhouse, I think it's a chain? My parents and my second cousins (who are my mom's cousins, my fourth cousins are the one's my age seeing as I have no first cousins....confused yet?) promptly told the waitress it was my birthday. Not cool...it's a couple weeks away and I HATE those weird loud songs they sing to you in places like this. Oh well. It was definitely embarassing. They had me sit on a saddle in the middle of the walkway and screamed their version of "Happy Birthday" kindly *cough* not *cough* using my name, and the fact that I was turning eighteen...oh dear. It's funny to look back on, and I did get to celebrate a bit with my cousins which was great :) But still weird. Haha. My brother had the best moment of the night by far though. You know those guys who go from table to table making balloon animals? Well when he stopped at our table my brother (Who, mind you is fifteen years old but looks older than I and is nearly six feet tall and always well dressed.) looks at the man and as loud as he can with this adoreable todler like squint on his face says with utmost enthusiasm "I WANT A PARTY HAT!" >.< (That was his face >.<). The guy looked at his so funny! It was great.

Haha but to top off my embarassment I find that my mom has posted pictures of my "Birthday" at TX Roadhouse on Facebook...dear lord...

But all in all, it was great fun! I really hope that we can go up there more often and that my cousins will come to AZ again soon! And maybe I can visit them in WA? (Hinting to whichever parent might be reading this? Do you guys even read this anymore?)

-Random Stuff That's Happened This Past Week-

Finished the "Julie & Julia" audiobook!

Played lots of piano, and can now play a number of Regina songs off her album "Soviet Kitch"

Ate at The Orange Table again <3>

Got my room clean after a week of not putting anything away.

Sucessfully made hard boiled eggs if you're my mom you know how hard this is for me...

Went to Dairy Queen for the first time in my life. Had a cookie dough Blizzard. Still not sure what the hype's about.

Discovered a Lush store at the mall here :)

Decided to start cooking a lot more. Things more elaborate than Tuna salad sandwiched and Chicken and vegetable curry over rice.

Affirmed my slight obsession with The Smiths whilst hearing them being played over the loud speaker at Lush.

Off to listen to The Smiths and Oingo Boingo, to get in some sort of pilates before I have to leave the house, and to eat lunch! Nutella sandwich?
