a free show featuring dent may last night has secured a place in my heart for this group.

internet crush:

i have been enjoying the tiny desk concerts through npr.org.

i have an internet crush on raphael saadiq now. i really appreciate his style choices and pretty smile. the music isn’t the absolute best ever but really i’ve gotta be honest…i’m just really in love with the way these two fellas present themselves in this video.
thumbs up!

on the way back from my cousin’s wedding in tyler, we stopped in shreveport to visit the norton museum. it’s a nice museum that i never knew existed. the grounds are pretty nice as well. it was hot (of course) so we didn’t last long out there but definitely have plans to return.

normal ccoa chaos

part of the ccoa crew

there was an awkward moment

i am no longer an employee at ccoa. friday was my last day and i ended up working until 5 o’clock and being stressed out (as usual). our server went down and it was my last day so we bought ice cream and said our goodbyes. this is only part of the ccoa crew since some people leave early on fridays.

i sort of don’t know what to do with myself now that i don’t have all that stress in my life.

john and nola had baby ava christened at st. matthews catholic church downtown. john’s friend, who passed away a few years ago, painted the ceiling of this church. it was a really neat ceremony. our family attended mass before the christening and although i was totally lost at times, it was more enjoyable than a lot of church services i have been to in the past.

last saturday night, i went out with some of friends from work (kiandra, lilly, and maria). we went to the hookin’ bull with the intention of riding the bull. i managed to get away without riding it but kiandra and maria were troopers and held up their end of the deal. we had a lot of fun and made the most of the country western environment.

monroe speedway overload

aunt judy, mom, & dad

we went to the monroe speedway because it was free entry if you wore a ULM t-shrit or showed your ULM id. we thought it would be an interesting experience (i found out that my aunt judy used to drag race). we got there about 30 minutes early to find not a single place to sit. we were left with the option on standing on the ground level of the track and holding our ears. i left annoyed with the whole thing and happy i didn’t pay $10 to get in

but it was an experience

we heard this song on the way to florida (overnight drive last thursday). my dad has been singing this song ever since then. my mom hates it.
