You always have some crazy story...

One time Brian said to me, "You always have some crazy story." This was after hanging out like, three times.

Today, I signed onto my bank's website to check my account balance, since I leave for Florida tomorrow. -$34.80? What? Then I looked back at the transactions. There were ten that were not mine. I remember having my debit card at the Taco Bell in Homewood yesterday. I thought I put it back in my purse, but apparently not.

So I got on the phone with the bank, and I guess I'll be getting my money back in about 2 business days. Meaning it could take until Monday. So I'm getting on a plane tomorrow night for vacation with no money. I have no cash either, so I have to borrow $2 from a coworker so I can take the L to the airport.

It's not quite as bad as it seems. I do have a credit card with like, $100 left on it. And my dad was worried, so he is putting some money in my account tomorrow. But I definitely got yelled at since I was going to Florida with less than $200 in my checking account in the first place.

I suck at life. Well, money anyway. But the beach is free, and I can't wait!

Why I Love Bust Magazine (and you should, too)

Since I am finally done with Practicum I and only have one project left to finish for my Reading and Language Theory class, I decided to spend the evening relaxing with the latest issue of my favorite magazine, Bust . In this issue, I read about: Fat women on reality shows A new version of roller derby called Derby Lite A global O that will be occurring on December 21-22 Recipes for finger foods to serve at holiday parties How to make your own yarn Asheville, NC (now I want to move there even more...) Amy Poehler's views on feminism Divorce ranches in Nevada from the 1930's through the 1960's (it used to be really hard to get a divorce, and Nevada had laws that made it super easy) Homemade Christmas gift ideas A guide to "handling some of life's major milestones- marriage, childbirth, and death- with a DIY frame of mind" The monthly "One-handed read" column And of course, there are the fashion and beauty sections. Also, book, movie, and music revie

I got a little out of control...

I started my end of the year celebration a day early with margaritas at Lalo's. Unfortunately, since I don't drink very often, they affected me pretty quickly. I knocked my fork onto the sidewalk. Nancy (with her 80's hair) pretended not to know me. Nina gave me this look. Good times, good times. 40 more minutes of school, and then I am FREE!!!!!

Fall!

Okay, I’ll admit it. I’m excited for fall. I LOVE fall. Things I’m looking forward to: Sweaters and hoodies Cinnamon candles Leaves crunching under your feet Carving pumpkins and toasting the seeds (that I will give as gifts because I don’t actually like them) Going to the apple orchard with my mom… apple donuts and apple ciders slushees… Scary movies Watching my Charlie Brown DVDs Starting school! I swear, September always flies by in an adrenaline-filled haze… The smell of burning leaves Football!!! Making apple pie (that will most likely be given as a gift because I’ll be dieting) Fall crafts (I think this year I want to attempt a wreath) Hot apple cider My one and only complaint about fall is that it means winter is coming…
