iHola Chicos y Chicas!

Today, mom and I went to Cafe Milano to have lunch (in Conyers) because the Thai place she was going to take me to was closed. I really wanted to try Thai food, and the lady who owns it closed it for a while because she is on vaction to Thailand. Geez. She can't get enough I guess. Anyway, we ran errands, but the most exciting news I have is that I FINALLY got a scrapbook organizer for all of my stuff-I went to different places, including Michaels, to look for one, but ended up getting the most expensive one I saw because it was the best quality, and I figured that it was better to pay for quality once than to compromise for cheaper stuff and have a lousy product and need a new one later. So the down-side? The outside is completely bright pink and says "Butterfly" on it and has a butterfly next to the word. Mom got one too, and as we went outside to the car from Scrappin' Sisters with our organizers we felt so ridiculous; we couldn't stop laughing. I told her they must have made them so noticeable so that people would see that and ask about why people our ages would have something that looks like Hello Kitty luggage, then we can explain that it is actually a scrapbook organizer. Now if you were a scrapbooker looking for a good organizer and saw this nice big organizer on wheels, you are bound to remember it when you go looking for it at the store if it is bright pink with "Butterfly" on it. LOL- that theory was the best I could come up with, and mom and I agreed that was the best we could think of, besides that each style has a different name (ex: there was a small, purple version that had "Dragonfly" on it) like Vera Bradley, except they just go ahead and put the style name right on the bag so people will know which one it is. Either way, we look ridiculous, but we love out organizers. It's huge and heavy, and holds everything and worth every penny. And it was a lot of pennies, lemme tell ya.

Then tonight, Mom, Dad, Jordan, Tom, and I had supper at Pacho's. Yummy. I had a Virgin Strawberry Daq. with my meal, and it was excellent. El Charros and Frontera are still my favorite Mexican places though.=-) Then Tom and I came back to watch a movie with Jordan, but Jordan went in his room to talk to Sarah, and didn't come back out much. I found "She Gets What She Wants" which was a tv movie that was on Jordan's Tivo. I had been wanting to see it , so I played it, and Tom fell asleep. It was actually a really funny movie, and Jordan is gonna watch it later- it has the main girl from Coyote Ugly in it. Anyway, so during that movie I took all of my scrapbooking supplies and put them into my organizer. Tom left around 10:30 bc he was so tired, and I was so tired when I got done with my movie that I almost slept on the couch in the basement, but eventually forced myself upstairs. I was so glad I did because coming up to my computer allowed me to check around the usual sites I visit online and I had messages from some friends! Woohoo! I am so excited! Esther and Alejandra both did study abroad and what with being at different schools anyway, I don't ever see them as much as I like. Alejandra is still in France, but Esther is back from Italy, so bring on the roadtrip! I am calling her tomorrow to try to work out dates that I can go down to see her and the boys can go to Panacea for a Boy's Weekend in the condo. Well, I think Dana is going too, so it will be Boy's Weekend plus Dana I guess, but that's cool. Whatever they wanna do. =) I just Can't Wait to hang out with her, catch some sun, see Tallahasse and her apartment, swap stories, and just visit with her! Oh the joys of spending time with your best friends! Now if April would just get home from her world-wide travels, Beth would return from London, and Natalie would come back from the other side of the USA....*wink* I don't even ever see Claire because she is in Athens all summer. I miss all my girlfriends who have been gone a long time. Thank goodness for the other girlfriends that I love who ARE home this summer! =) Plus, there are always the awesome guys. I love hanging out with them, and that is a good thing, because, generally, they are the ones who you can always count on to hang out with no matter what is going on. Seems like I am always with the boys. It's ok though, I love that too! =) I am just full of love tonight. hehehe

This weekend should prove fun- I will be going with friends to South Carolina Friday, probably anyway, to get some fireworks, and then returning in the same day. Hopefully we can make a pit stop in Augusta to see Jonathan, Lisa, Tyler, and Madeline. Then on Saturday, Tom invited me to go with him and his family (or parents or whoever is going with him) to Atlanta to see his house. Then we are going to do some furniture shopping most likely. Fine by me; I need to get ideas for when I redo my bedroom at home. =)

Ok, that about does it for now. I am pooped and ready to hit the hay.
Sweet dreams!
Love,
Megs
ps- Listen to Brad Paisley's Alcohol. I LOVE that song. It's been out forever, but it makes me laugh everytime I hear it. So if you don't listen to country radio like I do, go find it somewhere, because it's awesome and I should have told you about it when I first heard it a long while ago. Sorry. *wink* =)
