Bye Bye October

I feel like i need to update, just to update

* Went to mizzou for homecoming this past weekend and going back to mizzou tomorrow for ASHBASH!! Ashley Ward has returned back to the states and to Missouri for the week. It also happens that Mr. Obama will also be in columbia tomorrow night speaking on campus...funny how that worked out.

* i hate Halloween costume pressure

* My biggest disappointment of the week has been going to Shlafley to finally drink their fall seasonal beers on tap and finding out that both of them are sold out till next year. Big Bummer.

* The new Snow Patrol CD will not be leaving my car for a while

* Finally a "oscar'ish" movie (Rachel Getting Married) is out in theatres and I can't find time to go. love that Anne Hathaway.

* I'm hosting Young Life Morning Prayer time at my house on mondays now and it has become my favorite part of my week

* WAAAAYYY Ready for the Election to be over

* Welcome Back 30 Rock, even if you have been able to see the new episode on nbc.com all week...

* I'm pretty obsessed with the Alpine Shop right now. I finally picked out a new winter coat after two winters of searching and pretty much wish i was friends with everyone that worked there. These people are WAY too helpful.

* On to Twilight Book #2....Addicted like every other person that reads these books.

* Fall Day Light Savings = the most depressing day of the year

*Happy Halloween!

love love love these pins.
I keep picking them up whenever i can find them and love passing them on to friends. I saw them first at crooked creek last summer and just picked up a few new pins when i was in a small shop in Seattle two weeks ago.

i'm really sick of hearing the word maverick
