She almost turned around
But that would be like pouring rain drops
Back into a cloud
So she took another step and said
I see the way out and I'm gonna' take it"

The Da Vinci Code movie was a huge disappointment. The book was a billion times better. I was bragging to Mike how great the book was, and after watching the movie he didn't see how I could claim it was so great.
Yesterday at work, I got an $80 tip and a $40 one....I love great days at work. I got the $80 tip from this adorable old couple. It was their 50th wedding anniversary and they brought their children with them. So I made them stand up, asked the man to propose to his wife again (which then, he made a comment saying he wished he could propose to this woman every day *aww*!) and then I told them to kiss for 10 whole seconds while the restaurant counted with me. It was absolutely adorable! I love sweet old couples.
I bought my mom a gift the other day which she loved! I bought her an incubator with 12 duck eggs! So now, she can hatch baby ducklings! My mom is an absolute lover of animals (thus, the reason why I am so in love with anything furry) and so I thought she would love to do this. She set it all up and now all we have to do is wait a month for them to hatch! =)
Vacations are slowly creeping up on us and we're super excited! We have to go out and buy a tent for the camping trip. Three days completely alone on a deserted island! How amazing is that?! I wish time would go by a whole lot quicker!
Oh, did I mention I pretty much have the best boyfriend in the world?

Me, Mike, and a group of friends went downtown last night and had a blast. We were supposed to watch his friend play in Battle of the Bands, but missed his show. So, instead we went to Tabu and had a good time. I never thought I'd see the day that Mike took me to a club. But, we both had a great time. Drank lots and lots and I was feeling pretty good. =) We didn't get home until about 3 am. And now, I'm paying the price; I'm exhausted and have a huge headache....
I'll just take another nap. =)
Hopefully we'll be seeing The Da Vinci Code tonight or tomorrow. We were going to watch a midnight showing when it opened, but suprisingly, there were no midnight showings! Grr.... I read the book and thought it was amazing. And now, I'm infatuated with seeing the movie. =)
"Your arms are my castle, your heart is my sky.
They wipe away tears that I cry.
The good and the bad times, we've been through them all.
You make me rise when I fall.
Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling.
And everytime we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last."

It amazes me how disrespectful some people can be. People need to mind their own business and get a life of their own.
Anyway, life is great! I really can't wait until our camping trip. And then right after our camping trip, we get to go to Atlantic City again!!!!! HUGE YAY! We had so much fun last time; I really hope time passes quickly! Mike and I hung out at Todd's yesterday and were talking about our upcoming vacations. It was getting me excited. Vacations are always amazing! =)

"It's been years of big promises with no follow-through. Lots of pushing me away just to reel me back in the moment before I was out the door. In retrospect, I'm embarrassed by how little effort on his part it took for me to come back or stay. I was so desperate for him to love me, to want me, to fight for me that I was literally grateful for any mere scrap of effort. I'd made so many excuses for his inability to treat me well that even the smallest gesture was amplified in my head."

I haven't posted in forever!
Mike and I are making lots of vacation plans lately and it's making me excited! The first week in May we'll be spending some time at the beach for my birthday. June 18 and 19 we'll be going to an island off of Florida's east coast and camping out. July 26 to August 6 we'll be going to Atlantic City again. In the middle of August, we'll be moving into a house. (which is kind of like a vacation) And we're making plans for our cruise on January 1, 2007 already.
Anyway, hope everyone is doing great!

I found these icons and was laughing hysterically. If any of you know Dane Cook you'll be laughing your ass off when you read these, and if you don't get them, you definately need to watch Dane Cook....=)
    
Yay for Dane Cook!
Well, I haven't posted here in forever, so, for a recap, life has been good. =) Let's see....What have I done lately? Me, Mike, Karen, and Tony went to the beach on Sunday. We were driving down A1A, and it was mobbed with Spring Breakers.....we go to the beach, and there wasn't a single person in the water! It was freezing cold! *brr* I guess the Spring Breakers just wanted to walk up and down A1A. So instead of swimming at the beach, we hit the arcades and won some kick-ass prizes! Yay! Then we headed to Adobe Gillas and drank some before heading home. Not too bad of a day.
Yesterday we went and saw the Orlando Seals play and they won! Yay!! I know, I know....boring! But, it beats hanging around the apartment. I think Mike and I are going to take a mini vacation the first week in May for my birthday! Hooray! I'd like to go to Sebastian Inlet and go fishing again; I had a blast last time we went. I keep getting more and more excited about our trip in July. I hope time goes by quick!
I've been reading a lot lately and going through books like crazy. If anyone has any suggestions, let me know....
Well, I guess that's it!

We're going to Disney World!
Woopie....
Mike and I are going to Disney today, so that I can let his friend's family in the park. We figured we'd spend some time there and do a few rides as well. I think all Floridians take Disney for granted, so today I will act as though I were a 7-year old tourist. =)
Happy spring break to everyone!

I feel as though I've been neglecting my Livejournal, so, it's time for an update.
Not a whole lot going on, just been busy I suppose. I no longer have Roxy (::big sad face::). We took her to the Humane Society last week and I felt horrible. I miss the comfort of having a dog around me, if that makes any sense. Throughout my life, I've always had a dog, and when I moved in with Mike it felt strange not having one. Mike promises, when we get the house I can get one again. I just miss having an adorable furball at my heal at all times, sleeping against the curve of my back, greeting me at the door like she hasn't seen me in years, and protecting me when I'm alone. Just the presence of a canine companion who loves you unconditionally brings a feeling of happiness. I miss that right now.
I'll be okay. The lease is up in a few months and then we can move out! =) Yay! Anyway, I have to get ready for work now.....
My last picture with her....

I bought a new phone! Yay! And, it's a Nextel...so, I can "beep, beep" people. Bigger Yay! So I spent most of my day yesterday figuring out what my phone can do and downloading ringtones....
I have Wild Horses (Rolling Stones and one of my favorite songs), Pour Some Sugar on Me (a given), Break Down Here (a great country song), and We're at the Top of the World (Juliana Theory)....
This really was a useless post, but I really was excited! =)

I can't believe people actually updated recently! I'm so proud of you guys! I usually go to my friends page, and hardly anyone ever updates, but today, there were lots of updates to look at! Yay!
Now for my heartbreaking news....::tear::
I have to get rid of my baby, Roxy...=(
I'm so heartbroken. Mike and I haven't had the best of luck lately; we've hit this bad luck streak. Let me explain.
Well, me and Mike always buy Cash 3 every night, the same numbers. 313 (the time he was born), 708 (our anniversary), and 123 (just a number he likes)....Well, we play every day and haven't hit in a while. A couple days ago we didn't play for whatever reason; just didn't feel like going to 7-11 and getting the tickets. Guess what came out? 313! $500 down the tube.
Next day, I get pulled over by a cop for slowing down at a stop sign, but not completely stopping. No ticket, yay! Same day, Mike gets pulled over by a cop for speeding, going to school. He gets a $155 ticket, boo.
Next day, I get seriously sick. I was shivering with 2 shirts, a hoodie, a blanket, and a heating pad on. Literally, shaking and shivering. I had a temperature of 101, I was throwing up, and I had a POUNDING headache, to the point where I couldn't even stand up straight. So, the good boyfriend Mike is, went out to get me medicine and some Juicy Juice. When he came back, he said there were two letters outside of our apartment. It was about Roxy.
We never told our apartment complex we had a dog. It costs $500 to have a dog, plus $20 a month more! We figured, why bother; we're not renewing the lease, we'll be buying a house soon. So, the first letter said we had an "unauthorized pet in our apartment." The second letter said that there have been two complaints about Roxy barking too much, and if we get a third complaint we will be forced to move out. The thing is, Roxy hardly barks. She only barks if someone knocks (which any dog does) or if she hears strangers outside of our apartment (and that's not too often because we live on the top floor). The people who live across the hall have a very large dog who barks a lot, and I think whoever is complaining thinks the barking is coming from our apartment.
So, Mike went to talk to the apartment complex and technically, they can still charge us $500 for having her. The manager was not in, so she will get back to us on whether or not we have to pay. But still, we have to get rid of Roxy, because we can't take the chance of getting kicked out of the apartment. We have six months until our lease is up and we move into a house. Neither one of us want to get rid of Roxy, but we have to, to be on the safe side. So, Mike promised he would buy me another puppy when we get the house. A sweet gesture, but doesn't make me feel any better about the situation.
I'm feeling better (health wise) now; I think it was a 24-hour bug or something. But I feel terrible about the whole Roxy situation. =(

Friday night, Mike and I met up with some of my friends from work and went to the Osceola County Fair! Yay! I love fairs and this one was exactly what I had hoped it would be! We bought wristbands and did all of the cheesy carnival rides, ate funnel cake, watched pigs jump hurdles in a race, saw bears and mountain lions, watched bull-riding events, and Mike won me a Care Bear at one of the game booths (Share Bear to be precise). ^_^ And then we went home and had some more fun...::wink, wink:: All in all, it turned out to be a wonderful night and I can't wait to go again! It reminded me a lot of a condensed Atlantic City, minus the casinos. Which made me even more excited because we get to go to Atlantic City again at the end of July!
July 30 is my Grandfather's birthday, so we will be having a pig-roast for him at my Aunt's house in New Jersey. After that, Mike and I will be heading to Atlantic City again for a few days (it was a ton of fun last time), and then to New York to visit some of his family. I know it's quite a while away, but I'm still so excited! I think it's time to update my counter with a new event!

So, I come home from work yesterday, and Mike surprised me with a scratch-off ticket. =) He knows how easy it is to turn my excitement button on. ;) I was happy with just his thoughtfulness....But guess what?! I won $100! Yay, for thoughtfulness and money!! I thought it was funny; I bust my ass for 6 hours to make $150, I come home, take 2 seconds to scratch a ticket, and earn $100! Not too shabby....=)
Life is good.
