The Super Weekend List

I was initially going to detail our trip to New Orleans by each day...but that took soo long. And I was adding some very boring details that I'm sure no one really needed to know. So now I'm going to write about the top experiences while we were down there. That way I only will have to tell you the cool, fun stuff and not the weird, boring stuff. Seeing Joe for the first time that weekend!!! We had arrived into Nola roughly an hour before, Alli and I were all unpacked and bored. We decided to head over to the Marriott (where the team was staying) and check out the NFL shop there. We had gotten a swag bag in our hotel room and had a gift card to the store...so that was the reason for the visit (still can't get away from the boring details...sorry). As we were walking over, we ran into dad and he joined us. We had recently learned that Joe was just finishing up practice and was going to be at the hotel within the hour. Not expecting to see him, we went to the bar and ordere...

Leap blog

Ahh. Oops I forgot that I have a blog. Won't happen again....maybe. Yesterday was leap year ...day. Happeneds once every four years. I learned that in elementary school. So guess what I did to celebrate? Did I leap? Nope. Did I start dating a boy so that our anniversary would come once every four years? Nuh huh Did I have a baby? Nooooo I went and saw an ice skating program. For young ice skaters. With friends that don't have kids. It was adorable. Yep, my life is still a little bit too boring to have a blog.

i met some sort of famous people last night

I have met some flippen awesome people since I've lived in Sheridan. That is obvious...otherwise I probably wouldn't STILL live here. ANYWAY...Last night I went to a little shindig for a man named Tom Balding He makes bits and spurs. Which is cool...if you need bits and spurs. The reason for his little party was because the Discovery Channel wanted to put him on their show 'How it's Made'. While I think Tom is a cool dude, I was SUPER pumped to go to his party because I got to meet the CAST AND CREW of that show! So pumped that I couldn't even muster enough courage to talk to them when I finally saw them. It was so bad, that at one point during the night I ended up staring at them for a good 5 minutes straight. At the very end of the night, right before I left, in the 11th hour, I basically ran up to them, with my hand extended and said "I'm ANDREA and you guys ROCK!!!!" Which I don't think they totally understood....because they ended up being...

indian summer

I've heard rumors that it is cold in my native land....of Michigan. Well sorry Michiganders. It is still hot in Wyoming. Very hot. Like 90 degrees hot. I work at a Starbuxx which is usually pretty awesome. But not when you have to be perky and happy all the time. And talk about the weather. And how awesome it is that it is still SO FRICKEN HOT! This is basically everyone's reaction in Wyoming. SUMMER WILL LAST FOREVER! I do not share the same love of the heat. Actually I hate it a little bit. Michigan experiences all 4 seasons pretty equally. 3 months summer 2 months fall 5 months winter and 2 months spring. Not in Wyoming. It's like 30 months summer... 30 months winter. I know how weird I sound actually WANTING winter to come, because it will last forever too. But right now, this is how I feel. I love the holidays....they happen in winter. I love wearing fall and winter clothes, because they are cool. I am seriously running out of things to wear because all my summer cloth...

I have terrible artistic abilities. One time at work my friend Giesella and I drew horses. Mine looked like this. Hers looked like this. Guess who won.

car dance haze

If you want to be embarrassed, hang out with me. I have no filter when it comes to embarrassing situations. I actually tend to enhance them. So on Tuesday I went to Billings, MT to go shopping with my friend Cassie. This story has nothing to do with shopping. It DOES have something to do with my extreme car dancing skills. We were driving around, going to our next shopping destination...and Don't Lose My Number by Phil Collins came on. Go, listen to that song right now. Imagine unexpectedly hearing it in your car. Now try to NOT dance to it. Impossible, I know. Because I am sadly heavily influenced by pop culture, I always try to somehow incorporate fist pumping into my dance moves (thank you Jersey Shore). I know I am supposed to fist pump like this , but I usually fist pump like this . So I am fist pumping away, when I roll up to a stop light. When I car dance, all other outside surroundings get a little fuzzy. So when Cassie yells at me to "be cool", I ...

tweens.....the idiot age

I will rant to you all today....all of my three followers. I do not like tweens. I don't think I even liked myself when I was a tween. They are soooo annoying. Example #1: I am at Starbucks using the free wifi (yes I go to Starbucks when I am not working....I have no life). And there are little tweens sitting behind me. I hate it when tweens sit behind me.....hahahaha jk. That's not why I don't like them. I don't like them because they are idiot eavesdroppers. I was talking to one of my fellow co-workers. I had mentioned to her that I was not yet friends with her on facebook (geez I sound like a tween) and one of the stupid idiot tweens goes "What's your name?! I'll add you on facebook!" I mumble something like "no....hahaha jk. But seriously, no". Then that idiot tween goes on for 5 minutes about how I should 'TOTALLY' add her. FRICKEN ANNOYING TWEEN! Example #2: They sometimes don't shower as regularly as they should. Please, fo...
