Celesta Barbara Brinkerhoff!

I am so glad Celesta and I have become such close friends! We are two peas in a pod. It's been really nice having her friendship because both of us broke up with our boyfriends within a few weeks of each other and have been able to help each other out a lot. Seriously without being able to talk to Celesta, the break up would have been way harder for me!

It makes me sad though that I've known Celesta since March of 2006 and we've just barely gotten to be such good friends! Haha. But I'm glad for the friendship that we do have!

Here are some great moments/facts (whether they have been funny or serious or just mentionable):

A few weeks ago I went over to her house and we watched Nacho Libre and ate pizza. We somehow ended up babysitting 8 or 9 kids (3 of which were her siblings). Long story short, one of the girls was standing at the top of the slide, fell off, and broke her arm. Celesta had to go to work so I sat with the girl til Sis. B-hoff got home. Luckily Celesta was able to make it to work and the girl was okay!

The time at Erik's New Years party when we decided to cover our teeth in yucky black frosting.

Convincing Natalie from OSP that Celesta got married when she was 18 and has since been divorced (she really believes it!!!!). Convincing Matt that both of us are pregnant (not sure if he believes it anymore...though he did!).

Celesta is my mother. We are both pregnant with little boys, and both of us are due on the 26th...That's Thursday!!!! Our little boys are going to be BFF.

Fake-fighting in the kitchen at work.
Me: "Celesta! Get yourself under control!!!"
Celesta: "You know what!?!?!?"
After this Natasha looked up with a scared face...hahah she thought we were really fighting. Huh-larious.

And one final thing which I believe is the most recent:
One night last week at work, Celesta, Matt, Garrett, Jorge and I all left at the same time. Celesta and I were at the other end of the parking lot from the boys. We kept looking at them and they kept looking at us (I don't know why we weren't all just in one group). So Celesta and I decided to sneak over to her car and put it in neutral. She ducked down and steered it towards the boys while I pushed it. All of a sudden Jorge looked up and saw the car silently rolling towards his car. He did a double-take and realized all of a sudden the car was silently rolling towards them! Hahahah it was sooo funny. Celesta and I both almost peed our pants laughing so hard, and we both got a great ab workout from laughing like maniacs.

Here are some pics of us from the Ghost town! (I should write about our trip to the ghost town...but you can just look at my pics on facebook if you care to know and were not part of the group!)


Us and our baby bumps.




I am so glad we are friends! :D

The end!

Bored and Lots to Do

Sooo it is one o'clock in the morning and I have a test I should be studying for....it's over 5 chapters of which I have read a grand total of, you guessed it, one. Hmm oh well.

So here I am deciding to BLOG instead.....ahhhh.

I have this really weird hobby, I love making lists. My lists are usually either of my friends (best friends or all of my friends haha) or names that I like. And right now I am thinking about names I like and so I'll share them with you!

Ivy
Jaidon
Kandria
Marren
Amelie

My dog Scruffy is the best dog ever. He is so adorable and cute!! He's so funny to watch and he is so so smart. He knows lots of people's names (LISA! Momma, Dad, Travis, Stephen, Grandma, Aunt Donna, Aunt Treat [Aunt Jeannie...she always brings him treats], Lacey, and Chica [his doggy cousin]). Here are some of the other words and phrases he knows.

Where's (insert name)?? (he'll often go find them)
No begging

Thos are all the ones I can think of off of my head. He's really funny.

Today in math we had a test....it basically turned into a take-home test. Since it's math for elementary teachers it's pretty easy. This test was basically making a bunch of different graphs with data. My friends Holly, Brittain, and I left class and went to the computer lab to make our graphs there (we were allowed to "collaborate" aka share the work). So Holly and Brittain made graphs in Excel and I made the other graphs that aren't in Excel in Paint. Haha. We literally finished right on time. And then we decided that together, we are a superhero. So yes, we are each a third of a superhero. Hahahahahah oh man that made me laugh.

And here is a garbage can outside my Spanish room.


The end.

Odds and Ends

Thanks everyone for the comments you left on my last post again haha. I'm doing better. It's still pretty hard but it'll be okay...I have more to blog about on this subject but don't really feel like writing it right now.

So I am sort of a blog stalker as Linda calls it, and sometimes I read Stephen's cousins' blogs because they're entertaining and I like knowing about people haha. But like last week or something I randomly looked at his cousin Kelsie's blog and she had this link posted to a video on youtube and I watched it. It's so cry-ish!!! I don't feel that way YET hahahha but you should watch it, it's got a really good point. (Linda and Rhonda you might have already seen it!)

And another random thing. The other day at work was TERRIBLE (aka all three Measons were working and being butts...especially Alexis.) And I was thinking about blogging about it. Then I was like "no I don't want to sound all whiney and stupid...maybe I'll do a good: blahblahblah. bad: blahblahblah. good bad etc" post about it. So yeah I was going to but then I waited too long and I don't want to anymore. But I do want to write a few hilarious/good things I was going to mention.

1. I was cleaning rollout (for those of you non-OSP peeps it's the room where we make the pizza dough...when you clean that room you're in there by yourself...one end connects to the kitchen, the other is right next to the dish room.) So I was mopping and I had been talking to Ryan Jean then he went back into dish. I was kind of irritated because of what I mentioned above. The only noise was the dish machine. The dish boys were quiet and I couldn't hear into the kitchen. Then all of a sudden from the door I hear Ryan: "Michael...are you gay!?" HAHAHAHAH okay it's not that funny when I write it but man was I cracking up haha. It was soooo funny.....it made my night.

2. The other funny thing that made me smile that night.....Chris (our manager) was doing some sort of inventory thing or something. He was carrying a scale and a clipboard with him. Actually the funny thing is he wasn't carrying them, he was pushing them all around the back of the restaurant on a bus cart!!! Hahahahah seriously!! Pushing this big old thing around for stuff that weighs a total of maybe 2-3 pounds. I was laughing at him. Then he realized how funny it was and laughed too. And kept doing it haha.

I went to do my service-learning at my mom's school this morning and on the way out there the sunrise was so pretty I took a few pictures. Here they are:

Not doing so well...

Thanks to everyone who commented on my last post, I appreciate your support and love. I'd comment you all back individually but I'm too lazy/tired. And yes Lauren I will try to call you soon :]

So Stephen and I broke up. It was okay, it ended up being mutual. But it sucks. I can't even describe how much it sucks. I hardly missed him when we were dating and went for days without seeing each other. But now I miss him like crazy, despite the fact that I've seen him at least once every day since we broke up. I don't get it. I've cried every day. I've talked to him about it. He said it's hard for him too. I told him that I guess the hardest part for me is realizing and accepting the fact that all we are is friends now....and he said that's hard too. He's cried. I told him that I felt stupid because it seems like he's already over me and I don't know why it's not so easy for me, and he told me, "No...trust me I'm not...I'm just trying to deal with it." I'm glad/sad for him. But I can't deal with it. Blaahhh this just sucks...I don't know what to do about it. I know I should pray because...okay this is the most ridiculous logic in the world I know...but I don't want to pray about it because then I might start feeling better, and if I start feeling better that means I'm getting over Stephen. And I don't want to be over him.

He was here for like 7 hours today, 4-11....He came over to watch the Super Bowl and have dinner with my family (ps I've never been into football but I was SO mad we lost!!!...). And while he was here things were perfectly fine. I wasn't sad, we goofed around, it was like the good times we had while we were dating. Actually, it was like we were dating again, minus the kisses. But within ten minutes after he left I just felt so depressed. This is terrible, even if I seem happy, if I'm not with him I'm really really sad. I don't get this
