Currently Watching The Devil Wears Prada (Widescreen Edition) By Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, Stanley Tucci, Simon Baker see related

It's been nearly a year, minus 3 months or so. 

I wish I had the pictures to update the butterfly project, but I can't seem to find any on this stupid computer...  I will look harder though, and I also have pictures from the sunrise I went to for my birthday.  I didn't have school that day so I came home and went to sleep again.  I am surprised I got up too, I know.   I have been done with school for a few weeks now and have been home for about a week.  The little trip I had planned lasted a little longer than I had hoped because my aunt decided to snort some coke and walk down the street trying to get hit by cars.  She ended up in the hospital so my mom volunteered me to watch Ryan, her son for a while and take him to and from school.  He had three more weeks left, but my aunt came home and I need to pay rent, so I'm going back to Salisbury.

I sort of dyed my hair a few days ago, just for the hell of it, and I think I probably shouldn't have...

If you ask me, it looks like a wig.  Anyways, it is supposed to wash out in 8-10 shampoos, but it was not recommended to use on light hair, so I dunno if it will ever wash out. I'm just a little worried.

SO, my mom tried to set me up with a guy from her work, but it kind of fell through when he had a bachelor party to go to with his brother instead of helping me pick out a kayak.  And I haven't heard anything from her about him since.  It kind of sucks though, I was excited to meet this guy.  Oh well, I will just have to find love the old fashioned way I suppose. (The internet is not the old fashioned way) I guess I have to go out and do stuff. Ugh, all the trouble, this guy better be worth it, all the work I have to start doing.

If I don't get the job with Kay and her mom, I will stay in Salisbury and try to get in shape walking on the beach every day, or just around the neighborhood.  Oh! also kayaking :) I happened to come to own one that was owed to me for 3 years now from my dad and I have been out on the water about a half dozen times now and I LOVE it.  I will update with pictures soon.  I love pictures.

Speaking of pictures, here are a few niece pictures (Lavianna):

She is almost 3 now.  And still as bratty as ever, she will be going to day care soon when Cortnie starts school again and maybe she will mellow out a bit with all the attention she will be getting.  Poor thing needs more attention so she doesn't have to work so hard for it.  She is going to  it.

Here is a cute video I made when I went to visit my sister last weekend:

Tomorrow I turn 20.  Yep, I'm 2 decades old.  I am celebrating by going to see the sunrise in ocean city and taking pictures of the ocean!  The sun rises at 6:55 am and I was born at 5:36, so I will be getting up around the time I was born.  That is early!  But I'm gonna do it, and Kait is coming with me.  I can't wait, I hope it's going to be a nice sunrise.  Anyways, I will post pictures tomorrow, on my day off!!

Oh! I'm raising monarchs!  here are some pictures of the progress:

This is the milkweed plant that the monarch larva eat.

There is a tiny larvae on the leaf in the middle of the frame.  See it?  It's white.

There he is!

There is a larva that is a little bigger, probably the second instar (5 total)

Another one...

A few bigger caterpillars.  See the pretty yellow?  I think they are so cute. :)

This one is getting ready to turn into a chrysalis. He's huge!  Prolly about 2 inches.

Look how cool it is!  He's got a few hours before he sheds for the last time and starts becoming a butterfly.

This is the beautiful monarch chrysalis.  I love the gold detail on it.  See the wing veins?

The butterfly should be done forming by sometime mid-next week!  Updates to follow :)

New Lavianna picture!

I love it!  Lavianna is 14 months old now :)
