no work tonight... yea!!!

Im off work tonight. Sweet. Im sitting at Kinkos waiting to do some stuff for my mom, and since I have the Kinkos hook up, I get to use the computer (or puter as I like to say) for free. Not much has been happening. Ive decided to lay off the booze for a bit. I ended up hooking up with this guy (who shall remain nameless) while drunk the other night. I told brandon, he's ok, he's just worried about me drinking so much. I do retarded things while drunk. I dont know what exactly happens. I dont know when it exactly happens. I just know that its a bad idea. So we're gonna steer away from the drunk Lauren for a bit.
I can't wait for Brandon to be home. I miss him so incredibly much. Its already been 11 weeks since he's been gone. I still have 18 weeks until he comes home. Ouch. But, Ive only got 9 weeks until I go down there to see him. So everyone wish for these next 9 weeks to go by quickly ok?
Im going to the Cubs vs. Cards game on the 20th. Woo Hoo!!! I love baseball season. its the happiest time of year. Barry Bonds is the biggest douche bag ever. "Im just tired. Me and my family are tired." Bull shit. HEY, maybe if you didnt do steroids, you wouldnt have to deal with this. You brought it on yourself you butthole. So shut up.
Im gonna go bra shopping tomorrow. I dont have any bras that actually fit me. I hate bra shopping. Its so annoying. I wish that I didnt wear a bra, but Im too afraid of my tits saggin when Im 40. My mom taught me at an early age to wear a bra ALL the time. Even when Im sleeping. I figure she's 48 and still has an amazingly perky rack so she knows what she's talking about.

Staying home and loving it

So the past few days I have been sick. Yucky sick. Just the flu I imagine. But all day yesterday I sat in my house. It was great. I worked out, watched tv, and slept. I havent spent an entire day at home in a really long time. I worked on Saint Patty's day and Saint Pattys parade day. That sucked. I did enjoy wearing my shirt that said "my dad is german" with shamrocks all over it on Thursday. I made it myself and it really confused the HELL out of all the drunk ass people in the bar. I laughed and laughed. Friday I got to see all three of my wonderful Chris's. Chris Obrien is one of my best friends from highschool. He's back on Springbreak. Chris Holmes is of course my big tall best gay friend in the world..we went out to eat. Then theres seeing Chris Gunga which is always a great time. Chris Gunga is the singer from the dearly departed band the Gunga Dins in case you guys didnt know. He's a wonderful friend of mine (and yes Im saying this because I know he reads this) Love you!! But that was fun. I then went home early because I started to feel light headed. I thought I just might need to eat, so I tried that, no dice. I then proceeded to get sicky sick. Stayed at home all day Sat. No better. Went to work Sat. night where boys preceeded to talk about my boobs and one actually snapped the back of my bra to get my attention. I turned around and said "you might want to leave because I can promise you, you wont be getting a drink in this bar". It was fun. I love being able to do that. So then Sunday you already know about. WENT NO WHERE. Then today I had school then work. Heidi came in to work for me at 845 which was awesome so now Im back at home.
YOU WILL NEVER GUESS WHAT HAPPENED!! I entered this contest at cubs.com to get a chance to buy dugout box seats. I WON!!! So now me and Kristina and Brandon will be watching a cubs vs. houston game in Sept. FRONT ROW DIRECTLY BEHIND HOME PLATE!!! Yes, you will be able to watch me and my baby and one of my best friends in the whole world on your television. Tune in Friday Sept. 23rd!! HA HA HA HA HA!!! Im one of like 200 people that got those seats. Im so lucky. The Cubbies god smiled on me. I knew all those years praying to him would finally pay off. Im the luckiest girl in the world sometimes you know?
I get real tired of having big boobs sometimes ya know? Im a DD now. Went up from a D just recently. I used to love it. I used to be so greatful. Thanks to my mom, Ive got pretty big breasts and Im not a big girl. Well, Im 5'9 but I mean like Im not as big as girls with DD breasts tend to be. I used to show them off EVERYDAY. Recently Ive started wearing t-shirts to work and out and about. Im tired of all the fake ass attention. If you wanna hit on me, hit on me for something other than my permanently attatched girlfriends. I have a few genuine guys a week, but the ooogling bastards usuall win. Ay yi yi.
Well, thats about it. Time to go sleep, class at 9am. Love you all and have a nice Tuesday.
Y a Brandon, te quiero mucho. Espero que usted sea seguro. Usted es mi vida. El aliento llena el corazón y me mantiene vivo. Regrese por favor a mí pronto.
I hope that is right, my Spanish is quite lacking compared to yours......

Here we go again.....

Oh boy Oh boy Oh boy. Kerry Wood left the game today with a sore shoulder. Ay yi yi. PLEASE, lets not have a repeat of the injuries from last year. He pitched 2 innings, and went to warm up for the 3rd, and decided to take it easy. YIKES. I pray to all the baseball gods that are up there to help keep our rotation healthy this year. Its been a pretty boring few days, and I dont have much to talk about, so Ive decided that Im going to tell you all about my hero. Not many people know this, so Im going to fill you all in:
Russ Hodges. I dont expect anyone except for the die hard baseball fans to know who that is. He's a radio announcer who at one time broadcast cubs games, but spent 22 years broadcasting for the giants (In new york and san fransico). BUT anyway, he made the most amazing call EVER in baseball history. In 1951 the giants played the dodgers in best of 3 game series for the pennant. It was game 3, bottom of the 9th and the giants were down 4-2. Runners were on 2nd and 3rd and there was one out. Up to the plate comes Bobby Thomson. Stike one on the corner of the plate. Next pitch Bobby nails a homerun. Russ comes on screaming over and over "The Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant!" It feels like he's never going to stop. I get goosebumps just thinking about it. The awesome thing about that call was that back in those days they didnt tape their broadcasts. So it very well could have been lost forever. BUT, a few months after baseball season had ended, Russ gets a copy of his call sent to him in the mail. Guess who sent it? A dodger fan. He taped it in hopes he would get to hear Russ cry. HA!!! Thank god for that man. If it hadnt been for him, I never would have gotten to hear Russ say those words. Russ died 10 years before I was born, but he is the reason (along with my love and knowledge of Cubs baseball) Im going into the profession I am. In case you dont know what Im going to school for, its sports broadcasting. I plan on being either on WGN 720 (which will pretty much be impossible because I think pat and ron are immortal and never going to die) or maybe ill do pre and post on FSN (or comcast now I guess). I swear to each and everyone of you, I will be watching cubs games for a living and somehow get my voice on the airwaves giving you the play by play. I LOVE BASEBALL!!!!! It is the reason that I live. It was what I was born for. I am the cubs #1 fan (at least female) here in Springfield and I dare anyone to challenge me! HA!!!! Go cubbies!!!!!!!!

BASEBALL and losing weight...

How absolutely great is my day?!! My life seriously rules right now. The cubbies played their opening spring training game today. Well they're playing it right now and winning 2-1. Damn it is so good to hear Pat and Rons voices again. I missed them soooo much. I cant believe that its March. Just one more month!!! April 4th at BankOne ballpark people! Are you ready?! I sure am. I have been all freaking winter. So anyway, thats one hugely great part of my day.
The second great part of my day is that Ive lost another 3lbs! Who would think excersise and diet could actually work. I was thinking about it the other day. I look at myself in the mirror and think about all the weight I need to lose. I go out and look at girls skinnier than me and go "those skinny bitches." What I was wondering though, is do girls that are bigger than me think that about me? I seriously cannot think of anyone thinking Im skinny or thinking that I dont need to lose weight. I mean Brandon hates the fact Im trying to lose weight, he thinks Im perfect the way I am. My friends do also. But those are my friends and my boyfriend. They dont count. They have to say that stuff. I just know of a few girls that are in this new year lose some weight kick just like I am and they are significantly bigger than me. Do they think Im a "skinny bitch" ? I wouldnt think so, but I was just curious.
Another great thing about my day is that me and my girls are steppin out tonight! We're going play poker, then going tanning, then going out to a nice dinner, and then heading out for drinking and dancing. How great is that? How lucky am I? I hate these freaking girls that are like "I dont get along well with girls. Ive always had more guy friends than girl friends" You know what that means? That you are a caddy bitch who feels threatened by other girls. Either that or your ugly and dont like other girls around cuz they make you look even uglier. HA!!! I love it!!! Every girl should have at least 3 or 4 EXTREMELY close girlfriends. They are everything I could ever need. They keep me sane and get crazy with me at the same time... I LOVE THEM SOOO MUCH!!!! Anyway, I gotta finish getting ready. Steppin out means looking good people!!! Love you all and have a wonderful day!!! Go Cubbies Go!!!!
