"That's a little trick we used to use on the Jap's..."

That picture you see there, that's what it's supposed to be like.

That's normal.

And that...that, is friendship.

Oh, I love Team Ethan.

"We've got our backs against the ocean, It's just us against the world..."

Two posts in one day? I'm on a roll!

Actuuuaaally....
For some strange reason I have gotten extremely emotional the past couple of hours.
Reasoning:

1. I miss my littlemonsterminimesnugglebugSophiebear SO much tonight.

2. ______ _______

I have never wanted to punch/talk to someone so bad in my entire life.
There was no closer, not that I really deserved any, but STILL...

"My name is Kiiiiiid...KID ROCK!"

"I wanna get you alone, So Hott! I wanna...get.you.stoned!"

Red SWAGgin' it up!

Trace Adkins made an appearance!

Mixin' it on the Jim Beam bar.

"I was off to drink you away!"
Sheryl Crow showed up!<3

One of the most entertaining shows I've ever been to. Gotta love the KID!

We had an absolute blast - even if i did come home with the stomach virus.

Walking a block or two in the rain, getting into the concert and looking like  a hot-mess for sure, but still having the BEST time. 

Afterwards, we headed down the strip and ate Margaritaville - this is where the sickness kicked in.

After we ate, we walked downstairs to leave and the live band just HAPPENED to be playing "Wagon Wheel" - Old Crow Medicine Show...how could we not sing along? Especially when the singer requests it? So, there we stood in the back of the room, no where near the stage...Screaming the chorus to "Wagon Wheel" at the tops of our lungs. They loved us, they put a spotlight on us and everything. 

After we had our (literally) 15 seconds of fame, we headed out.

I got sick on the ride home, having to pull over and throw my guts up twice. (And no, it had nothing to do with the Jim Beam and Cola - this was pure stomach virus)

We finally made it home around 2:45am. I drove home and absolutely crashed. 

Spent all day Saturday hopping from couch to bed, to different couch, to other bed. My arms and legs felt like I had been beat.

But now, it's Sunday! And I actually feel some-what better. Thank the Lord!

Soph and I are going to search the web for her 2nd birthday party decor! Ahhh!

<3

"It's a right night for the wrong company..."

As I wind down this overly exhausting day, I found it only appropriate to let you (although I'm not even sure if there is a "you" reading this thing) know how court went today...the results:
Every other weekend from 9am on Friday to 9am on Sunday, and every Tuesday. 
This will take a LOT of getting used to, but I'm sure Sophie will love weekends at her daddy's, and who am I kidding...I could definitely use a break sometimes.
She has been the happiest baby ever the past few days! I'm so proud of how she's growing up (minus the small temper tantrums, and also those times when she slings things - anything - from one side of the room to another, haha)!
She plays so good by herself with all of her baby dolls toys, I just love hearing her carry on "conversations" with them. My baby isn't so much a baby anymore!

Subject change (before i start crying, haha)...


Tonight I did something I TOLD myself i was going to stop doing...thinking about what USED to be is absolutely the biggest problem i have.
I mean, does it REALLY matter what happened or what was said yesterday, last week, a month and a half, or even two years ago? No, it sure doesn't.
Does that mean I've forgotten? Hell no.
Does that mean I'm going to forget? Nope.
Is the fact that I can't forget going to change anything? Not quite.
So, why do we do it? Why does everyone I know (me, mostly) dwell on the past and what could have been, because obviously it couldn't have been...considering it didn't happen.

One thing I know that is set in stone, and that I will never have to dwell on is this little booger...

"And when she wraps her hand around my finger, oh it puts a smile in my heart, everything becomes a little clearer...I realize what life is all about." <3

We're gonna go snuggle now.

Valentine's, Shmalentine's...

Ok, so maybe I am only bitter about ValenVOMIT's day because I don't have a significant other to spend it with and/or shower each other in pointless gifts with, but that doesn't change the fact that I am bitter...stupid holiday. Hah.

To all of you that DO have a special someone, I hope you've enjoyed your day/night!

Annyyywaaayysss...


Tomorrow's the big day...Court date #2.
I'd rather take a beating.
We've been over this before, I want Sophie to see/know/love her father...but waking up to her little face and spending every Saturday with her all day long has become a habit that i absolutely love.
I don't know what I'll do every other Saturday, but that's where my incredible friends come in - hopefully they will help me to get my mind off of things. <3

Subject change...


Even though this ValenVOMIT's day has been spent being single, I have realized exactly how precious my beautiful little bundle of fun actually is!
She loves candy WAY too much, though...I think she gets that from her daddy's side, because unless it's chocolate, I don't like it at all.
I've realized that no matter what, she'll always answer my "I love you" with an "I love you too, momma!" Never leaves out the "momma", and it absolutely melts my heart every.single.time.
We've had so much fun tonight! We have done absolutely nothing but danced like crazy, colored, and watched Barney. Since I won't be attending classes tomorrow (due to court), I don't have to focus on homework, for once...and it's great. I can't wait to have all summer off!

Here's a little dose of what goes on when the rest of the house goes to bed and Sophie and I are left to entertain one another:

Happy Valentine's Day!
<3

Sophie filled Saturday

I try to spend every waking moment of my Saturday's with this "Sleeping Beauty".

She woke up around 9:30am this morning, and in the hour she's been awake, she's managed to do the following things (i am proud of most of them):

-Eat a huge breakfast! (french toast, eggs, sausage)

-Sing the chorus of "Baby" - The Biebz himself

-"Cook" myself and her baby dolls multiple dishes in her kitchen

-Put and leave on 3D glasses in hopes of Dora being in 3D

-Make her baby do the John Wall (aka. John blob)

-Dance like a fool.

There's not a boring moment.

Enjoy your Saturday, I know I will! 

<3
