Mac, I love you, but you're killing me.

Maybe it's because of the increasing difficulty involved in the projects I'm taking on, or maybe it's because I'm just completely incompetent, despite my being told how strikingly intelligent I am by everyone I've ever come in contact with... o.k. that may be an exaggeration. But if this:

 

excuse for a functioning mail server gives me crap ONE MORE TIME... APPLE IS GONNA GET IT.... "doesn't accept my password" "certificate verified by unauthorized user" MY BUTT!... I can't even sync my stinking Auburn email to my computer and I've been a faithful patron for how long now?... ALMOST TWO YEARS. 

Note: this post is not an excuse (*Katie & Clayton) to persecute or verbally abuse Macs, because it is widely acknowledged that Macs are beyond superior to PCs. THE END.

I DID *IT!!!!!

All by myself!!! I simultaneously downloaded several useless (and probably virus infected) software programs all to discover it could be done in WORD ART..... seriously. Anyway, the *it I'm talking about is the new and improved TITLE. :D See?! (Direct your attention to the top of the page ^) How instead of a boring ole' color for the font, it's A MAP!... Coupled with the map that is our blog background (which may or may not be changed in the near future) it's an improvement from the old black and white, right?!... Well, like the blog description says, it's still a work in progress, or an "ongoing renovation."

Alright! I'm back! I know, I know... this is the day you've been waiting for and it fulfills your wildest dreams blah blah blah. ANYWAY, over this copious Christmas break I did a few things and went a few places, namely: Birmingham, Summerville (GA), and New York City baby (specifically Pound Ridge with  some monotonous train rides to the city). It was fun. This was my 5th-ish trip to NYC but my first time taking pictures so it was especially memorable. But what WASN'T so fondly memorable was the fact that a huge unnecessary blizzard hit basically the whole east coast of the U.S. and dashed our plans to fly out of ATL on the 26th. SO, my cousin (Katie, if your memory is failing you) didn't get to go! Because she has an obstinate boss who thinks that dry cleaning is more important than ME... as if. Anyway, as a part of OUR obstinate nature, we refused to be overcome and decided to make another visit to NYC in June :). Take that you Jubilant Christmas Vacation Adventure Nazi! ha.

Oh and the title (which I forgot to mention in my merited rampage) is in reference to one of my newly discovered bands whose song "Homme" is my favorite... as of New Year's Eve.

just call me mom

So I've decided I could run a small country. I basically do. Everyday. In a family of about 15 people, with a few extras we pick up on street corners, it is a small country. Cooking for the small country has become a stressful tasks. For some reason they think that they can now form opinions about my cooking. Well I have news for them: they can't. So from now on I will make what I want, and everyone will eat it, gladly. So tonight I'm making pasta. It will be delicious. Everyone will love it, even if I have to make it.

Happy New Year Y'all :)

WELL to start of the new year day my friends and I really wanted to go ice skating. We even called the night before to make sure the place was going to be open. Well as it turns out we called the wrong place (which was a roller skating rink), and the real place we wanted to go was closed. BUT ANYWAYS, on our way to going ice skating (when we thought it was open) my friend Holly, the second one on the left, had always wanted to stop at this place called LaGrange College Site. So we did. It was so much fun. It was just like these little wooden houses all around, like it would have been back in the day. We just looked around and took pictures. Pretty much the best day ever.
