So, you are all probably wondering how my appointment went on Thursday. Well, it didn't. They called and canceled because the Dr. was sick. I made an appointment for this Wednesday, so I will let you know how it goes.
On to other things... Last weekend we traveled to beautiful wedding. On the way home that night- around 10:00 or so, we encountered a couch on the interstate. By the way- we are driving our brand new Ford Fusion- just purchased 2 weeks prior to this incident, when we were faced with plowing a full sized sofa or taking out the car next to us. We chose the floral eye sore in front of us and it is now in 15,000 pieces. The worst part about it is eventhough it we didn't put the couch in the middle of the road to hit- we have to pay for our damages. It makes sense I guess because who else would pay for it, but it will affect our insurance eventhough it wasn't considered an 'accident' according to the police. Life sucks sometimes! The accident was very scarey though. We hit it going 75mph and ended up in the ditch- luckily we didn't cross the median, that would have been tragic. For those who think I was driving- I wasn't- I guess I am just bad luck!

What Betsy used to call Torii
OK, so I really had good intentions with this whole blog thing, but I am so busy sometimes and during my free time I want to sit on my ass and do nothing. Plus, I am having trouble with my computer and it keeps shutting off in the middle of whatever I am doing. It is really irritating!!!
So, I am really excited about next Thursday because I am getting a little laser done. I am sick and tired of shaving my (what Betsy used to call Torii). I started waxing right before our wedding and it was great! It lasted for at least two weeks and there was absolutely no irritation- except the minor pain while getting it done. But you have to let it grow out between waxes otherwise the wax won't adhere to the hair. Anyway- so I am getting it lasered! Logan and I have had a discussion about how much to do. Brazilian- Am I going to want everything gone when I am eighty? What about when I have kids- will my little girl comment on how much we look alike? If I choose to leave a little- they will leave a lot and will leave some in places where I want it gone. Such a dilemma, but I think I am going to opt for everything. It is simple and they take everything and I just won't let my little girl see my bottom half naked. Thanks for helping me make that decision- I will let you know how it goes!!!

Becoming an Iowa Fan
This past weekend Logan and I went to Iowa City for the Iowa/Illinois game. We now have free parking for any game because my cousin lives across the street from the stadium- which saves us $20 each trip! My aunt and uncle have season tickets and they aren't able to go to any more games, so they offered us the tickets.
We will be going to the Iowa/Minnesota game in November- Liz and Corey- we'll see you there!!! Now- I am not sure who to cheer for at that game. I never had any direct affiliation with the University of Minnesota, but I did go to a state school and have lived in MN my entire life (except for a short time). However, I am now an Iowan and being a fan for Iowa is the equivalent of living in MN and being a fan for the Vikings, Twins, etc. Plus- I now have more Iowa apparel than I have ever had of MN. I think this might qualify me as a true Iowa fan. I would probably lose my free parking if I went to my cousin's house in anything but bright yellow and black, so I think I have made my decision. I am cheering for Iowa.
Another discovery I made this weekend is- being drunk and crazy is not my scene anymore. My cousin had a kegger- it was fun. We hung out with a few of his friends and my aunt and uncle. My uncle had much more fun than I did- he was so drunk and obnoxious. I know we have all been there. Not to pick on Liz, but she was the bitchiest drunk Freshmen and Sophomore year. After that she was fun to be drunk with! How about all of the drunken fights we have been in. I can remember one such fight about sharing the bathroom with Angela and Liz. While Liz and I were ganging up on Angela (way to stand up to us buddy!) poor Corey was standing in the background as uncomfortable as a guy at his wife's GYN appointment.
Anyway- back to the point of the story- we went to a bar that was packed with drunk people jumping around, making out, grinding on everyone, and just being stupid. What a fun place to people watch. There were definitely some interesting outfits as well. So, it was fun to watch people, but it was so crowded and sweaty. I really just wanted to be somewhere quieter and calmer to sit and talk with family and buddies. I bet I would enjoy that scene if it were Winona homecoming though. Such memories- the promise of getting up at the crack of dawn to start drinking, going to the parade tanked, stealing Kat's blanket, going out to breakfast, coming home for a quick nap before the game, grabbing a few drinks before the game, getting to the game in the second half because we woke up late or maybe we wouldn't go at all, going home for one more quick nap and some Little Ceasars, finally going out to Bullseye and Brother's for a crazy night of drinking, and then home for some more Little Ceasars! Then of course Scott would make sure we all got home okay- giving us the shirt off his back! Fun times in Winona!!
Anyway- just some reminiscing for those who are interested. It was a great weekend except for the driving- Looking forward to the IA/MN game!!! GO IOWA!!!
