Weekend in Vegas

nobody@vox.com(Jen) — Mon, 23 Jun 2008 09:51:43 -0600

Finally, a blog about my trip to Vegas, a week later. It was the first trip I've taken with either Matt or Steve, outside of Texas, and it was a lot of fun. Even though I hate hot places and the partying lifestyle, I still managed to have a reall...

Getting New Eyes

nobody@vox.com(Jen) — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 13:47:46 -0600

Yesterday after work I went to the eye doctor for the first time in over a year. I made an appointment because my eyes have been hurting the last few weeks, probably because I spend all day on the computer and lots of evenings reading. I've especi...

School Thoughts

nobody@vox.com(Jen) — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 10:17:09 -0600

My little brother graduates from high school tonight. Technically, he's been doing for a semester, but he's walking tonight with the rest of his peers. It's so hard to believe that it's already been 5 years since I was in his place. It's amazing h...

Books, Books, & More Books

nobody@vox.com(Jen) — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 16:48:13 -0600

Aside from my very busy social life in the month of May, I also managed to catch up on my reading - A LOT. I became addicted to the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer, and managed to polish off all 3 books in just 3 days. The first book is being m...

The Month of May

nobody@vox.com(Jen) — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 16:39:17 -0600

May was an extremely busy and social month for me, hence the lack of updates. Instead of trying to go back over things in detail, here is my list of updates (I'm such a slacker): Friday, May 16th Rockies Game vs Minnesota Twins Bars with Kristy, ...

Reading and Learning... I Thought I Was Out Of School?

nobody@vox.com(Jen) — Fri, 16 May 2008 09:41:47 -0600

Life has been so busy lately, or so it seems. It really hasn't been that busy, but I've been keeping myself busy between movies, books, and video games, haha. It's been really nice letting go and allowing myself to have some fun and relaxation wit...

Yoshi's Island

nobody@vox.com(Jen) — Wed, 14 May 2008 08:36:31 -0600

Yesterday I was too lazy to go to the gym during lunch, so I went shopping instead. :D I was initially searching for a bag I saw at New York & Company a week or so ago, but they didn't have the one I wanted at this particular store. Since my hunt ...

Mother's Day Weekend

nobody@vox.com(Jen) — Mon, 12 May 2008 17:03:23 -0600

A quick recap of last weekend... On Friday I got off work at noon because we were so slow, so I went and picked up some Spicy Pickle and met Matt for lunch. We sat outside and ate since it was so nice out, and then after taking him back to work,...
