Work's been pretty quiet this week. Lori is off so I've been holding down the fort for her. Nothing really eventful has been going on, but it's a short week and tomorrow is like our Friday because we're off Friday for the 4th. I had my first 2nd term of classes start tonight. I have class tomorrow night so I'll be staying here and going home Friday morning. I am going to a party on Saturday at Phyllis and Tom's, that should be a lot of fun. Other than that, now that school started again, I'll be busy doing schoolwork.
I watched Vicky Christina Barcelona the other night that I got on NetFlix. It's really good, and Penelope Cruz won an Oscar for it, she's excellent. If anybody gets a chance to see it, I recommend it. Javier Bardem is awesome and not freaky like No Country for Old Men.
Looks like my decision to ask for the cruise for my 30th birthday instead of my backup Phillies tickets was a good choice. Because we suck right now. We suck monkey balls. And you know what? I just don't care at the moment. The fact that we're still in first in the division yet suck so badly is because the rest of the division sucks monkey balls too..LOL.
In other news, Steph is coming in for the Haskell!!!! WOOO HOO!!! That's going to be soooo much fun!! *does a happy dance* I went to my first Haskell last year with Tom and his dad and we had a blast. So with Steph here, it's going to be that much more fun. Yay! And if Rachel ends up going to the Haskell, I will freak out..lol.
Oh and I've also been working on the LJ community I started. In case anybody's interested.
Quotes of the week:
Dad: "When it comes down to it, Brooke, it's just a number"
Mom: "It's a pretty big number"
Mom: "Aunt Bonnie asked me if we were doing anything for your 30th birthday and I said I felt the cruise was enough, she wondered about a party"
Me: "I didn't want a party. But if she wants to throw me one, I'll more than gladly attend"

Thats a wonderful present, when is your birthday?
Where will you go exactly? If you end up choosing it for your present.
I LOVE your new community, I thought of making my own for such a long time but I am glad someone finnaly did. Beloved Bill needs a place of his own!

The cruise is September 12th-20th.
My birthday is August 20th.
I wish you could come! My own father isn't even coming. It's just me and my mom.
Thank you!! I am so glad you enjoy it. That means a lot to me. I hope everybody who has joined loves it. It was just something I felt like doing. It also kind of gives me a place to share my own personal stories and memories attached to him instead of boring people here. LOL.

Sorry but SO RARE anyone comes even near here, I live about an hour from Nova Scotia! Small world! Wow. It is very beautiful here, you are going to have a grand time. Might be cold but worth it. Yes the Titanic museum is a great place to visit, I really hope you love it. Not many people who stop by in the maritimes so I am very happy. :)

Okay, how cold? We figured since it's Sept. it shouldn't be TOO bad. I hope..lol.
Everybody else cruises to the Bahamas or Caribbean, I honestly have no interest in either. Originally we wanted to do Alaska since my parents went there a few summers ago, but it was too expensive. That trip is incredible though.
I've been a huge Titanic history buff for 17 years, long before the movie. But I do love the movie.
