Today, Barb is feeling: a bit tired. and old!

so we have all these new Freshmen here.... and i feel so old!

but this is the next post and it is dedicated to Cori!!!!!
so, lets see.
i met cori i would say about 4 years ago or something like that.
she was dating my friend Brett that i had known forever from church.
but right from the getgo i knew i was going to like Cori. she was very cool. and very friendly.
we saw each other here and there whenever a church function would come up and we would hang out together there. then DUN DUM DUM! marrige bells on the forefront!
the wedding of Cori and Brett was announced!
it was a very very cool wedding. my brother joe did the ceremony and it was only like 15 minutes long. it was SO amazing. it waas perfect! then they had a very nice party afterwards. lets see..... from that that i think is when we really started hanging out together on a semi regular basis. we would play games and stuff alot.
that is how i met Cori's friends Tom, Crystal and their beautiful baby Alissa.
since then they have bought a great house that is very nice and perfect for them.
that is also where we always go and hang out and play games and watch tv. they recently got this game, it is like a "Eye Game" or something. it is a camera and you have to stand in one place and move your arms and stuff to make points and do stuff like that. the game that was most played last time i was there was 'Washin Windows'. it is a crazy game. but fun fun fun.

there is alot more about cori that i could tell.
like she and i feel the same way on a lot of political issues.
she is expanding her cooking talents.
she has a job that she doesnt like that much. she grooms dogs and like 2 days ago a dog scratched her cornea. :-( stupid dog!

Today, Barb is feeling: overwhelmed! (and loving it!)

so i know that you can be overwhelmed, and i know you can be underwhelmed. but can you ever just be whelmed?

first person to name that movie and post it will have the next blog devoted to them!

so there has been alot going on.
it is getting to the end of August. that means....
SCHOOL!
but before that, just a recap of things i have done in the month since i have been here.

i went to Duluth and did support for Joe, Kim, Andy, Irene, and Karl on the uni's. unicycles, cokers to be specific. they have really big tires so it is easier going long distances. and mom went with me. humph
once there is was ok. i met Karl. i like Karl. he is nice and available. but joe refuses to tell me how old he is. all i know is that Karl has owned a house for a while. past that, joe says HE IS TO OLD.
old schmold. what if Karl is the one? did joe ever think about that? what does age have to do with anything?!?!?!? i am 21 now. that means a legal adult in all views of society and law. when i asked joe if Karl had a girlfriend, joe said he was going to tell Karl that i wanted to know. i don't think he did. and i wanted him to.

lets see, past that. i work
i play, i eat, i sleep, i wash, i cook, i clean, i go out with the girls.
i don't have that fun of a life right now.

"when im washin' windows"
that is for those who know about it. :-)
i still have it running thru my head.

my cousin Christie is in town, which roX! with a capital x.
she and i are going to hit the town wednesday and spend the better part of the day together. then we get to go and pick up Trevor (her husband, and my kick butt cousin-in-law) at the airport at like 1 in the morning on thursday. it will be fun fun fun! the few times that christie and i do get together and hang out we always have a good time. i wish they lived closer, but NO they get to be beach bunnies out in Cali, oh well! even more of a reason to go and visit them!

so right now i am at River Falls at my cushu campus job. but what? school doesn't start for over a week barb, what are you doing there? you ask yourself. well. i got an email from Deb who wanted to know if i wanted some hours before the training and i jumped on them!

so that is right now.

Today, Barb is feeling: tired

i am not dead.
i swear it!!!!

i am just tired.

Today, Barb is feeling: happy for my parents who have been married 30 years (tomorrow, the 3rd of August) and for Tom and Crystal who have been married two years (tomorrow, the 3rd of August) . funny huh? :-)

so my blog has been requested an update about the lunch that i had with Ed.
It was ok. it was me, dad, ed, this guy grant who works under ed, and another guy in the Tech Dept. i dont' remember his name, but he was asian, very quiet and very cute.

Ed told me that he couldn't come with us to the drive in movies because he had to work his other jobs. he works at the Apple store in the MOA, and he does something else for his city. but he had to work at the Apple Store.

might have lunch again on friday. but you never know.
