TILT: Blogging from la casa de Andrade!

Right now, I am writing this on the couch in the living room of my parents house.  I woke up this morning at 10:40 am and I sat on  my butt for three hours.  I even suckered my dad into watching "Tangled" with me!  Its really nice to relax!  I haven't been home since August, so it was high time for me to visit the family and see my friends.  This extended weekend is going to be jam-packed with shenanigans with friends, spending time with family, doing homework, and cuddling with Sophie!

Big Things:

• Guys, its almost Halloween!  In case you haven't figured it out, Halloween is my favorite holiday.  My Poison Ivy costume is pretty awesome!  I can't wait to wear it!  I would like to have the opportunity to wear it every day the week of the 24th...and I am figuring out how I can make that happen!  Also, I have prepared for Halloween by: listening to the Rocky Horror Picture Show soundtrack on repeat, watched The Nightmare Before Christmas three times (yes, its a Halloween movie), watched Frankenweenie and Vincent as well, and made a ton of pumpkin foods.  I also plan on watching scary movies, the Addams Family, and eating a lot more pumpkin foods and Halloween candy.  I love love love Halloween!
• Silver Dollar City shenanigans!  My dear friend Sarah took me to Silver Dollar City this past weekend and it was a ton of fun!  There were real Lumberjacks that did a variety of Lumberjack tasks (like throwing axes at a target, speed-pole climbing, and log rolling!).  And while we were there, we at a lot of tasty food like: cinammon rolls, twisted potatoes on a stick, and apple dumplings!  Delicious!
• My new job! I recently got hired on to Toys R Us for seasonal work, and I like it a lot!  I got placed into electronics, and its a wonderful fit.  The guys that were training me all have superhero names ("I am Thor, and this is Captain America.") and I get a hero name too.  Since most female superheros are rather lame, I (of course) wanted a villain name, and I chose Poison Ivy (obviously)!  But if I have to recant my name, I will go with Batgirl (Barbara Gordon) since she has red hair and is a librarian.  Anyhow, its great to be employed again!
