Over the river and through the woods.

my handsome brother and me. Turkey Day at Nana's house.

curiosity killed the cat

i've been pondering abandoning the face-poo for the old blog. i sortof miss the blogging days. much more stimulating and much less cluttered with random useless applications. (no offense to those who collect them all, seriously)

tonight over dinner with mom and her coworker I realized that this past Saturday (the 15th) was the 1st year anniversary of the day I closed on my little Newnan bungalow. awwww.

just returned from an amazing trip to northern West Virginny. beautiful countryside and a great place to visit for a few days. many many thanks to Willy, Robbie and Chip for making me laugh so hard my stomach hurt for days! and if anyone ever travels to Thomas, WV--be sure to stop by Mountain State Brewery for some sweet suds.

at work we are in "audit mode" as no one escapes the eyes of the government. but i suppose someone has to do it. might as well be....you know....them.....shhhh. so everyone has to be in at 7:30am until our preliminary review is over. then beginning in february we'll be getting to work at 7am until the state actually does come in to kick-ass and take names. it's hard to believe we're prepping for 2009 and it seems like we just celebrated our great turnout from this past march. hopefully we'll be even better next year.

i'm excited to have been invited on a plane ride next monday. i dont think i've been in a small plane since i was 13ish. at least this time i wont be steering! nor will we be flitting over the gusty dunes of kill devil hills!

i miss my best friend who's out in arizona somewhere (are you still out there?) i'm sending love and good karma over the cyber waves to you lapo :) and heith of course! my next vaca is going to be out to see them. wherever they are. i've spent enough time on this side of the country.

enough of this for now.

cheers to all (or none! eek)

ahh. summer days.

well, summer has come and gone, but i reminisce.
labor day weekend mom, stefan, jack nevins and i ventured to the old roosevelt pools they open once a year to take a "dip in the past" in the mineral warm springs. it was a fun time. literally like going back in time and great fun. thank you mom and stef and jack for venturing back into our childhood personas (minus stefan being a buggar and splashing everyone!)
