Finally...no. 61 done, and no. 22 started!

After what felt like forever [but was really only like, three months], I finished the Twilight series. I would've been done sooner but lost my motivation during the last two books and quit reading for awhile. But, "Breaking Dawn" sucked me back in, and I finished it on Sunday morning [at like, 2 am]. The entire series was SO good. I wasn't all that thrilled with how the series ended, but I'm not sure if it should've ended any other way...if that makes sense. I'm sure I'll go back and read it again to catch the little parts that I missed. AND, I still haven't seen "New Moon." What a tragedy. Good thing it's almost out on DVD [and that jacob's finally legal].

I also started no. 22, which was to go with my sister on our own sister date night. We went to Girls Night Out last Friday at the Thunder game, and I had a TON of fun. Of course I did - I'm a huge Thunder fan and enjoy basketball more than any other sport [but college football comes a close second, with college basketball right behind it]. There were these little kids sitting in front of us that were turning around every five seconds because Alicia and I were being obnoxious, loud and into the game the entire night. I think their dads were annoyed, but hell. I paid to sit in those club seats, and they weren't going to say anything that would get me to shut up. The Thunder won the game, we got to "meet" DJ White and Jeff Green [that whole thing was kinda disappointing], and I got a margarita glass out of it. OH, and I won lower-level seats to tonight's game vs. the Kings! I was shaking when I figured out I won the tickets - I never win anything like that!!! My mom, JJ and I are going to the game tonight. So, I've sat in Loud City, lower level, bowl and club seats. It's been quite the Thunder season for us! Now, if only they'd make the playoffs...that would be the icing on the freaking cake.

I'll upload pictures later from our Girls Night Out...I've been meaning to do it for days now but keep leaving my camera in my car or at home. I'm really bad at uploading pictures...I need to get better. I need to get even better at printing them off. We have 200 free Shutterfly prints sitting there, waiting on us. I've got to use them before they peace out.

Things have been pretty quiet lately for us, which is good. We went shopping in Dallas this past Saturday and are pretty much outfitted for Vegas [just need a new bathing suit] and spring [jj got more clothes/shoes than i know to do with at the moment]. Vegas is in 3.5 weeks [and my 24th birthday - starting to feel old now], our anniversary's coming up, and H leaves for BMT next month. The whole BMT thing makes me nervous, especially since it's coming up, but I have faith my husband will do just fine there and will come out stronger than ever. I just hope he gets to graduate on time and join us [maybe...don't think he'll be able to leave] for our vacation to Orlando this summer. :)

It looks like the weather's finally turning spring-like...gosh I hope so. All this cold and wetness has got me in a funk. I don't think I've ever been a part of a winter this cold [or full of snow] like, ever. I'll be glad to see it go! However, I hope that doesn't mean tornado season's going to be rough. I can handle snow and ice, but I HATE thunderstorms [especially since it's just me and jj]. We'll see!

Eek! No. 76 started!

So, as some of you may know, I'm a big NBA fan. I know a lot of people think the NBA is full of whiny floppers who only care about money, cars and bling...but the NBA was my first love. It'll always be my first love.

Anyway. I'm a huge Dallas Mavs fan - and have become a huge Thunder fan. Nothing would've pleased me more than to get tix to the Mavs-Thunder home game on Dec. 16, but I couldn't justify buying tickets for the game when I've already been to like, six Thunder game and bought a 10-game pack. Well, my justification came today - ESPN's covering the Mavs-Thunder game, and all of the Loud City tickets are half price right now. So, I jumped on that wagon, got my tix, AND got free tix to the Thunder-Knicks game in January.

Holy cow I'm so excited. Not only do I get to see my two fave teams play, but I also get to start another thing on my list! For awhile there, I wasn't sure if I was going to make it to a Mavs game this year. SUHWEET!

The rest of the list is coming along slowly. I've decided to make brag books for my parents for Christmas - I just need to pull the million photos of JJ together in one place and get them printed. I also need to find brag books or scrapbooks to put all the pictures in...I want to print off pics from JJ's first year, and I think there's too many for a brag book I could pick up anywhere. I'll go do some digging around on eBay and see if I can find anything. I think I'm getting a crockpot for Christmas from J...I'm SO excited about that, too! I also asked for cookbooks for Christmas, so I should be able to start on that one after the New Year. I can't believe 2010 is just around the corner...there are only 23 days left in the year! Eek!

That's all I've got for now. I'll blog about JJ's first birthday later on today or tonight - I was just too excited about the Mavs thing to not blog about it. :)
