just killin' time....

i'd LOVE to have updated pictures of our 'hole'. i'd love to have pictures of the daily progress of our house. unfortunately we are still waiting on the BUILDING PERMIT FROM THE CITY!!! i'm getting so stressed about the time issue here...i might have to drive up there myself and bribe the city employees with root beer floats or something. ;o) really! let's get this house going people!!!! my stress level can't handle this anymore!

so here goes my post of randomness in the meantime...and hopefully soon we'll have progress on our lot.

1st of all, i was looking up showtimes for movies because we were going to try to go on a date this weekend. i guess the young women are all on a trip this weekend...so there goes the date idea. but i came across this on a movie theater's website...and it made me sick! it states:

"Note: No Children Under Age 6 Will Be Admitted To Any R-Rated Feature After 6:00 PM. Valid IDs will be required to attend Rated "R" movies."

really?! R-E-A-L-L-Y?!!!!!! what on this EARTH is this world coming to? no children under the age of 6 after 6pm...but before 6pm the R-rated movies are any cleaner? so people really take their kids THAT YOUNG to R-rated movies anyways?! wow. i think i'm going to be sick. that is just disgusting. and wrong.


on to some other randomness....

when my mom and i stayed at nate's parent's house when i was house hunting, we were able to learn about gun safety, and the pros and cons of having a gun in the household. as Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, "Fear always springs from ignorance." i completely believe that. i've never let nate get a handgun...not because i think it's a horrible idea, but because i knew nothing about them, and i was completely afraid of them. nate's dad was kind enough to explain things to us, and actually educate us about them, so the fear would turn to knowledge. and then of course he let us do a little bit of target shooting, so we could see what kind felt better, kicked back more, etc...

don't mind the smile...she's got a mean aim!

and don't mind the hood...i was freezing! i have arizona blood people...

watch out!

and YES i kept (and scanned) my target! i tried to circle and point to my 'bullet holes'. ok, ok...some of them were probably from my mom's mean aim too. but at least i hit the target a few times!
