Brought to you by the letter L, and the number 6

The AVN nominations were announced this week so I'll have a lot of porn to watch before the voting deadline on the 17th! It sucks I'll be away the whole week before in Orlando, so that means a lot of porn for me in the next couple of weeks. I have screeners on the way, my 58 pg list of nominees in hand and fresh eyes! Check back with me in 2 weeks. I guess no Guitar Hero or Netflix for me for a while. LL

to calendars! I have bought like 5 or 6 2008 calendars just for me!!!

It was nice and relaxing for the most part. Mom and Meemaw were here thurs and friday nights. I have gotten Mom addicted to Guitar Hero! So much so, that she insisted on buying me another guitar (wireless too!) so we could both play. They were on sale at Target friday. It's nice to be able to sit back in my bed and play wirelessly. Now Mom needs to come visit more often so she can continue her tour! I think I have allergies for the first time. My throat feels awful still. I finished one of my "closet" knitting projects. All it needed was the ends tucked in. But there were forty of them. It's a cotton tank top and it's huge. I may try to shrink it but I don't know who I'll give it to... maybe Leigh... she's pregnant again!! I hope it's a girl. Colin turned 6 months yesterday. LL

Yes, I'm at work today. Boooooooooring.

I have to work friday. Poo. But Mom and I think Meewmaw are coming until Saturday. I don't know what me and mom are doing for a thanksgiving meal though... LL

First of all, I am still getting over my illness... but mostly better. Second of all, I got a NEW CAR!!! I got a 2008 Yaris (copied Marri!). I love it... though it's a stick which I am getting used to again.I will post pics soon. Last night, Mark took me to a Tarheels game at the Dean Dome. It was my first since 1999! It was against Iona, so we won of course... it was fun!! I hope I get to go to more. We're having a pot luck lunch today at work, so I made my usual Mac N Cheese. It smelled so good last night, it was so hard not to eat some. LL

This morning I woke up with a horrible sore throat and headache. And I'm going to CLT this weekend. Great. LL

So now I have 4 months of my normal routine. Then, in March, I'll go back for tests again and start the exercise. My thanksgiving plans got cancelled. I feel bad I can't go to Ginny's wedding or Xanadu, but I can't afford it anyway. I just hope I can sell my show tix. Mom's gonna come for the weekend instead. I'll probably have already decorated for Xmas cause I'm so excited to... I am planning to pull out all my stuff today. I went to Beth and Mark's for dinner last night. Beth made a yummy soup. Isabel is entering her toddler/cranky stage... Yikes! Wish them luck. LL

The beginnings of my sheep collection... I also got a sheep pez, but I think it's still in beth's car.

My bedroom/craft room...

The living room...

Here's the dining room and kitchen...

SOME people have been bugging me to post pics of my apt... so I'm finally doing it. Here's the Sunroom and Deck.

BUT I was able to wear my new winter hat today. I could have knit it, but I didn't. AND I was able to use my new ice scraper. It's that cold. Tonight and tomorrow's low is supposed to be in the TWENTIES!!! I'll have to start creative layering, since I still don't have a whole lot of winter clothes. The train ride with Mom on saturday was fun. I got a lot of crocheting done. And I bought a new really nice wooden hook in Charlottesville. I wouldn't mind going up there again sometime. It was cute and we didn't have enough time. The time I visited Katie we didn't act touristy or anything. I had my heart stress test on Monday. I made it 10 minutes on the treadmill. Pathetic. But I think my heart is fine. My cholesterol is another story. I got some perfect red, white, and green sparkly xmas yarn on Ebay for my Cheesy Xmas Sweater. It's all planned out now, graphs and all, so now I just have to sit tight til after the holidays to start it. I pretty much hav...

I'm driving down to charlotte tonight, and then early early early in the morn, me and Mom are driving to Spencer to take a scenic train ride up to VA and back for the day. I should be able to get some good crochet/knitting time! And the leaves should be pretty. Anyway, have a good weekend!! LL
