here we are, almost entirely thru january---i can't believe it.

this week was frustrating, busy, and more frustrating, and sad.

1) you can blame my lack of blogging on this: i come back from a ride on Wed to discover my phone is non responsive. not even the magical guys at the mall who claim to CPR phones could save it. the most "awesome" part of the entire experience was that blackberries don't save numbers to the sim card, so, i lost EVERYTHING. every single contact, picture, really anything was gone.

because i was so angry at the whole bb thing (i've had this wonderful phone for 3 years. i loved it. it was easy to use, it had lost it's battery cover a long time ago and the battery was since scotch taped in--- this phone was loved people!), i got this non bb thing, which after it was all purchased, i come to find out that the buttonless thing is actually an android (whatever that is). guess i'm in the new age now, or so they say. so i've been busy trying to gather every lost number out there.

2) as many of you may know, i was 90% all set up for a new job. all i was waiting for was the contract to sign... which has since all fell thru. i'm pretty bummed but maybe i'ts for a reason...who knows. so that was frustrating...

3) last night i officially dropped my drawing class. it just wasn't doing it for me. most of it was instructor frustration. i mean, on thursday i drew a stegeousaures. instead, now on those nights i can let beth practice massagues instead. it might not be a bad trade.

4) and to top things off, appropriately on kansas day, the sunflower showdown occurred. those of you that don't know--- this is a hot rival of ksu vs. ku. in this particular showdown (like many), ksu got trampled mercilessly on national television. guess i'll be taking my ksu flag down outside. so much for being #3 preseason. at any rate, the cookies were delicious.

it was also my friend beth's birthday and i made her a birthday triffle. it was actually gorgeous all lit up with almost 2 boxes of candles but looking back, probably lighting that many candles set in coolwhip in a plastic container wans't such a good idea. happy birthday beth!
