Lady!

I have nothing exciting to chat about tonight other than we went to Urban Crust for HH today and it was amazing! This weekend, we are going to Austin to celebrate my bestie's birthday which I'm sooooo excited about! Gotta go shopping tomorrow!

Just wanted to introduce my other bestie: Lady Lucious! I came up with the name Lady but Nick likes to think it is after Lady Gaga. Lucious is her middle name because our favorite bartender in Jamaica thought my name was Lucious and we Loved it!
Here she is on the first day we got her:

She is a miniature long-haired English Cream dachshund.
Here she is on the 1st day getting used to her surroundings!

She is 7 months old and a true joy.
She is also a Red Raider although she comes from some place called Oklahoma ;)

She loves everyone and all dogs.
Playing at the Park:
She is the most spoiled thing ever (imagine that) and we have so much fun together.
Picture taken at 6 months old!
Enjoy the pics and I will take lots of pics this weekend to recap on the trip to the ATX!

10 Great Things About Today!

1. I got my car back and it is soooo pretty! I need to try and keep it this clean all the time! Thanks Sewell!
2. I took my phone by the Verizon store because it kept "timing out" and I think the guy fixed it. I have faith!
3. I am going to Amigo's in 10 minutes....Yessssssssss!
4. We are moving in 25 days...less than a month!
5. I got through the day without someone yelling at me on the phone about how THEY are the "victim"!
6. Project Runway and the finale of Jersey Shore are on tonight! *Fistpump*
7. I cannot wait to get AT&T U-verse when we move so that I can record more than two shows at a time and not have to watch either one of them.
8. Sonic Happy Hour is amazing! Diet Vanilla Coke for 83 cents!
9. Tomorrow is Friday!
10. I went to DSW shoe warehouse today and got some comfy work shoes that possibly look "old ladyish" but I DON'T CARE BECAUSE THEY'RE COMFORTABLE!

The Wreck

So tonight has started off with the classic line, "She doesn't need a husband, she needs a therapist." The Bachelor is classic. I could use line after line from these girls. And no, this is NOT the "wreck" I was referring to.

Last Wednesday, I went out to run an errand with my mom and was headed back to the apartment going eastbound on Northwest Highway and the Tollway when a guy rear-ended me. Not cool, but I do handle accidents for a living and I knew what to expect. These things take time to investigate and are not fun to go through, much less handle. How the tables have turned. Today, the insurance company accepted liability (thank goodness there are some honest ppl in the world still) and I took my car in for repairs and to get a rental. So for now, I'm driving a tank and it's kind of hilarious! Luckily, there were no injuries and the guy had insurance.

In other news, the Cowboys lost...boo! I'm just happy I was old enought to remember our Super Bowls with the Aikman, Irvin, and Smith. Good memories of selling Camp Fire candy at the supermarkets before the SuperBowls and then hanging out with Mom, Dad, & Dusty.

And a word to the wise, next time you get in an auto accident...be nice to your adjuster! They're human too!

"Connection"??

So I just finished watching "The Bachelor". Every season I say I'm not going to watch but I always do! I just love how all of the individuals say they have a "CONNECTION" with the girls. Seriously...a connection??? Whatever!!!!

This past weekend was spent reading a trashy romance novel which totally made my Friday night. On Saturday, we watched the Cowboys win their first playoff game which was sooo much fun! Saturday night, we went to Barcadia to celebrate Chrissy's birthday, which was crazy and so much fun! We've never been to Barcadia before...but when Nick started the "Jersey Shore" fist pump, it was happening from there on out! Sunday, we relaxed and ate dinner at my parent's house!

I am so excited about this weekend and watching Cowboys' Playoff Game #2 against Favre! We are going to the McKinney Tavern with Nick's sister and brother in law. I am soooo excited and pumped! I think this is our year!

I cannot wait for American Idol to start tomorrow night!!

Finally, we are moving mid February....so get ready for lots of excitement!!!

Great Kick-off to a New Year!!

I'm going to do this post in reverse b/c that's how the pics popped up. Just to provide a short recap, I had a great start to the New Year. I have moved on since my last post concerning TSO, and will now look forward to bigger and better things. This past weekend was spent doing tons of fun things including spending time with both mine and Nick's families, eating lots of food, drinking lots of cocktails, and enjoying my Christmas present from Nick which included staying a night at my favorite hotel, Hotel ZaZa and then going to the Cowboys/Eagles game on Sunday. The Cowboys won and we had a blast! See below for pics and Happy New Year to everyone!

I love taking pictures of us!

What were they thinking?

Ok...so what was Tech thinking today by firing Mike Leach? He was our identity and I LOVED him. I don't think he did anything worth getting fired about! I have been brewing about this all day and I am so depressed...disappointed...and let down! I am a third generation Red Raider and we were finally starting to find our way in the ranks of the Big XII. I was also a member of President's Select and knew several of the football coaches and trainers and they LOVED Coach Leach! I think back to the Tech/Baylor game just a couple weeks ago at Cowboys Stadium and how my dad had his pirate flags hanging high and everyone was so proud to be a Red Raider...now what?!?! I am beyond outraged! I don't want any comments on this post because it will just make me mad again and again!

On another note, I don't have to work tomorrow and will be getting ready for NYE! No clue what we're doing but I'm sure we'll figure it out! We had dinner tonight at Amigo's and it was amazing! If you haven't eaten at Amigo's in Richardson, then you're missing out! One top shelf there and I'm money!

Tomorrow, I will be in a better mood! Hope everyone has a great night!

A New Day!

First off, thank you to everyone (Lindsay) for helping me out with figuring this blog-thing out! I am slowly but surely getting the hang of it! Whew! I had a minor meltdown on the first night that was partly caused by drinking a whole bottle of Riesling and then attempting to start my blog. For those that know me...perfectly normal evening...for those that don't know me...bad way to start off the blog.

Now that it is a new day, I am ready to attempt my hand at adding a photo or two to this post. Bear with me as it is STILL a work in progress.

Here is a brief recap of Christmas and outings with Lady Lucious, my dog. More to come about her in future posts:

The Casey family in my parent's new house!

Lady playing in the snow on Christmas Eve!

Nick's nieces, Maggie & Grace, with me at the Cheesecake Factory!
