I've spent a lot of time at Stone Mountain with Marcus' family now that they have a season pass. I don't see why my family has never gotten one. Seeing as parking is now up to $10 bucks, I'd say $35 to go as many times as you want for a year is pretty convenient, no?

I know this is really not that important, but I have the weirdest fetish for stuff that changes in the sun. I bought this hemp bracelet at stone mountain with beads that are white indoors but when you go out in the sun it changes color to purple pink and blue. So cool. I also love the fingernail polish at Del Sol that changes in the sun. I'll probably be buying my kids stuff that changes in the sun everytime I see something. Hah.

Anyway, just a quick, pointless update ;)

It's been a really long time since I've posted, and I have the time while I wait for Marcus to pick me up for a nice dinner date at Chili's.


It's been a really nice weekend because Marcus was in Virginia the entire week 2 weeks ago, then he was back for about 18 hours (No, I didn't count, but I'm sure it's close enough) before turning around and leaving for another week at a children's camp being a nice counselor. I can tell he really impacted those kids. I'm a proud girlfriend. Friday he came home and we immediately headed off to the Brave's game Friday night. It was probably the best game I've been to.

High points:
--We had a group of 22. It was me, marcus, my mom and sister, and about 19 or 20 on my mom's side of the family. I love each and every one of them, so it was super fun!
--We got to see Greg Maddux get inducted into the Brave's Hall of Fame
--Brave's won 11-0!
--For the first time ever, the camera man put the camera on US and we made it on the giant TV. Now I can understand the delayed reaction the other fans have when the camera is put on them. I saw my face for maybe a millisecond before the camera went away because I couldn't find myself. I just saw my cousin and uncle who were sitting in front of me.
--It was Friday so after the game was the Friday Night Fireworks show and it was awesome

We had a great time,

On Saturday after a late night, we headed over to my aunt and uncle's house in Peachtree City where most of my family at the game was staying for a surprise baby shower for my cousin. When it comes to my mom's side of the family, I adore family time. We crack eachother up.

It's been nice to spend the weekend with Marcus home and visiting my family. I can't explain how important both are to me.


I'm busting my butt trying to get situated into a comfortable place when it comes to school, a job, and my apartment. My job at Bath and Body Works has been crappy out the wazzoo and whether it's me or their stupid computer generated schedule, I don't really care. I'm just ready to start working a different job in Athens. I'm also still waiting on Gainesville to accept me and I'm hoping they'll except me and that they won't reject me for some weird reason. I'm starting to get a little paranoid. Bleh. Hopefully by move in day on August 11th things will feel right and be right. I definitely need the change.

Until then, tonight I get to spend having dinner at Chili's with my man, and that is something I'm thankful for. We have so much fun.

Raise your hand if you love love and family! :)
