Its hard to believe that 2 1/2 years ago, Ladd and I picked up our lives and moved out here to Colorado to begin a new chapter. That chapter is coming to an end this May, when I graduate. I will proudly walk across a stage and likely with a sense of surrealism, accept two degrees - one in Veterinary Technology and one in Associates of Arts.This closure of this phase of my life becomes more and

We went to the Chili & Brewfest in Snowmass again this year. Only this year we (Ladd, really) went as competitors, too. His "Kansas City Pale Ale" (his rendition of Boulevard's Pale Ale) went over well with the crowd. Though it didn't "win" anything, his keg did get tapped. That is always a good sign. :)There was an impressive amount of microbreweries there this year with delicious samples

Ladd turned the big 3-0 this March.I planned a fun weekend in Denver for his birthday.His folks barely missed the snow and ice storm that swept through Kansas that day and drove all the way to Denver to spend some time with their son, the "baby" of the family.I also arranged for a couple of his friends to arrive in Denver Saturday night and surprise him at dinner.

Yes, cats are trainable. They are smart. In fact, some sources say they are smarter than dogs, but choose not to "obey" us. (hence the smarter than dogs theory)Regardless, I took a feline management class this semester. I thought since I am hoping and dreaming ( my life dream, actually ) to work with large cats, that this might be a good investment of my extra time. Only time will tell.

6 years ago, I married my guy.He was 23, I was 22.I still remember so much about that day. Here is the invitation. Nice smudge marks.Ladd and I at our Rehearsal dinner. After the dinner, my mom instructed my sister-in-law Rachel to take me straight home and make sure I go to bed!

Well, its not really bionic, I guess. But... its pretty damn close, if you ask me. Did any of you ever see that horror movie in the early 90's (I think)about a killer who was put to death and his various body parts were disbursed to people who could use them? This story reminds me of that movie. Hopefully his arms don't start making him do bad things like in that movie. ;)What new scientific

This is quite possibly my favorite month. Its a good month.Its the month Ladd and I got engaged. Its also the month we got married.I love the leaves changing color. The temperature starts to cool down a bit... but not too much.The smell of Fall is the best. The fresh air, cool breeze, pinion burning in firepits.I like to be outside this month, probably more than any other month. Its just so

The day we decided we were officially "together". We went to a Phish show that day, too. Brilliant. So us.I love this guy, and recently have probably not showed it enough. But let it be known, that he is loved by me.

Last week, 86 cats and kittens were ceased from a 2 bedroom condo about 40 miles west of Glenwood Springs. All were being held by one lady who just wanted to "give stray cats a home". So, like many of these cases, her heart was in the right place but she couldn't properly care for them. These cats were brought to C.A.R.E. The rescue center just yards from the vet tech farm. They are the only

We were TOTAL leafers last sunday. To be fair, so were hundreds of other people that day. We drove from Glenwood Springs all the way past Aspen up to Independence Pass. Approximately 6,000 miles in elevation within one hour. (Don't tell my mom. She officially forbid me from traveling this steep and winding road.The colors were nonstop. It was amazing.

Twice a semester, each vet tech student is assigned to a group with about 4 or 5 other students to do chores on the farm. Each group is on duty one week at a time.A couple weeks ago it was my turn, along with 4 other girls. It requires being there at 7am and 5pm on the weekdays, and 9am on the weekends. This gave me a LOT of time in between classes and let me just say that I got quite a bit of

It is hard to believe, but we just finished week 6 of school. This semester is flying by.I have had a handful of tests so far and I have done very well. It continues to amaze me what I am capable of.

Okay. I'm not a big fan of celebrity endorsement/instruction/etc., but its not who is saying what here that matters as much as WHAT they are saying.If you care about who is running your local or state school board - you know, the ones who decide what your kids will get to learn - you should vote.If you care about your civil rights.

If you didn't realize this already, I do NOT want McCain as my next president, and I sure as hell do NOT want Palin as my next Vice President and next in line to run this country.

I typically don't follow the storms on the gulf too closely. Ike hasn't really been an exception to that until recently.Now it is likely going to hit Galveston/Houston area in a big way.

Just want to share with you that the new picture on my header is Glenwood Springs, CO. My current home. I took this picture on top of another mountain, looking south. As you can see, I live in a valley. The town has about 9,000 people and hosts the largest natural hot springs pool... I think, anyway. You can fact check me if you want. :)

Here is a few pics I'll share with you from our trip to Telluride. I highly suggest it as a destination for a vacation. We've only been there in the summer, but if you're into winter sports, I'm sure it would be equally awesome, if not better. It seems as though there is always something going on there. This time around there was a mushroom festival going on. Yes. A mushroom festival. And

Last weekend, Ladd and I went to Telluride for a long weekend get away before school started. I needed a break from work and this town. I knew that once school started, I wouldn't get a break until Thanksgiving (except for labor day which doesn't really count when you've only been back to school for one week) and I wouldn't be going anywhere except work, home, school, or the library until then.

It is one of the most sought out national forests and its pretty much in our back yard! Yee-haw!! There were no problems

This weekend is the chili and brewfest out at Snowmass Village, CO. For $25, we got plenty of yummy micro brew drinks, chili tasting and good music, good company, and good fun. It was our first of hopefully several concerts at this venue this summer. They regularly have concerts (some free - others pretty cheap) at this particular area. In the winter, this grassy area is the snowy bottom of

I love this site!! I get updates every day. Starting your day off with some funny and cute cat pictures (and sometimes other species) and laughing out loud is definitely how I like to start my day. I have the feed to the right on my blog. Just click on the blue titles and you will be transfered to funniness immediately!

I had a request for pictures of our place and the creek by us. The wood building is the building we live in. The sliding glass door you see is one of the doors into our apartement. There are maybe 8 - 10 apartments in this building, a gas station directly above us and a couple other stores. The pictures of the creek are from a couple weeks ago when it was still higher and much faster. Its

Last Saturday, Glenwood Springs hosted a fundraiser for operation vacation. There were bands and microbreweries to entertain us while we spent money. We had so much fun. Too much fun, actually! I lost balance at some point and seriously damaged something in/around my ankle. It still hurts pretty bad. Good times. Good times. ;0)

I love flowers!! I miss my garden in Lawrence SO MUCH!!!! I wish I could see how it looks this year. The 3rd-5th year after planting is usually when its best - or so I've been told - b/c its finally starting to grow big and thick, but not overgrown yet. This would have been my garden's 3rd year. Dang. Julie... want to drive by and take a picture of it for me? ;)So, when life gives you

After school got out and before I started the new job, we went on a mini vacation to Denver to go shopping, eating, browsing, drinking, etc..., basically we went to the city to enjoy, well, the CITY!!!!! We checked out the Denver Zoo. It was great. I highly recommend it. We checked out "chain" restraunts and "chain" shopping centers to get a taste of ordinary once again! We celebrated Cinco de

Married to a wonderful woman and has raised two brilliant and beautiful children who are (god I hope I'm right here...) 4 and 9. I love you Brad! Here is his senior picture.

Hi, everyone! I'm back!School was officially over on Tuesday. I know my overall grade for A&P, but I have yet to find out about Microbiology. I'm antsy. It could go a couple ways for me. Because, DAMN that final was nasty!! :) Whatever grade i end up with, though, should be passing... I think. :)I have so much stuff to post about.

What?

But this new study is interesting to hear, too. I was listening to NPR today and they were interviewing somebody about this study, possibly somebody

Seriously? Does every company have to dabble in multiple aspects of consumerism? *sigh* I suppose we just wouldn't be in America if they didn't. I realize the drugs I take that improve the quality of my life were probably tested on animals before they were tested on people. I get it.

I figured I may have to do some research and leg work, but I had a feeling that in the end, I would find my camera! Well, only a little leg work was done and a sign made, by the time Ladd found my camera...... in his car! Doh! :) I also found out I

I have been experiencing this emotion. Especially regarding my blog, lately. That is why there have not been new posts this past month. Its not that nothing has been happening, because in fact there have been significant events. I just haven't felt like blogging. And since this is a "just for fun" blog, (insert eric cartman voice) I'll do what i want!!! :) But now that I lost my camera, I

I am without a camera. Again. This time I dropped it and lost it. I dropped it somewhere in carbondale between bars this past friday night. Please send positive vibes this way in hopes that one of my friends found it at the bar after I left and grabbed it for me, or that a good samaritan picked it up and took it to a business nearby (I plan to call every store between the two bars to see if

I finally reached my goal. Growing up, I always loved my aunt Janelle's hair. She was of the hippie generation. Bell bottoms, beaded entry-ways, incense, and of course, lots of long, flowing hair. I LOVED IT!!! I wanted it. At a young age, I would stand behind her when she was sitting and put her hair over mind so I could pretend it was mine. All mine. I wanted my hair to be to my waist

Bailey, our sweet black lab, turned 6 today. It feels a bit surreal. We've had her 6 years? Really? I think back to me practically begging Ladd for a dog. Oh how I wanted a dog. And he finally caved in and he chose Bailey out of the litter himeself. We took her to play and run at a park today, then to PetCo to let her select treats of her choice. Oh, we love you sweet, sweet Bailey. (

Should we adopt this little rascal? This picture cannot capture how absolutely, fantastically, adorable and tiny this little creature is. He was scared of getting his picture taken, but once I set him back in his cage he was silly and playful. His ears are truly like that. It seems he is mixed with something special.

I'm thinking of summer.I decided to show you pictures from last summer when we first got here, since I didn't attempt to upload pictures to my blog via dial-up at the time. These pictures were taken at the first place we rented when we first got here. The pics don't lie. The view was amazing.This is a flag I took a picture of from a local "hippie fest" (as I affectionately call it) last summer

The snow will not stop! Its amazing, really. Ladd's boss told me today that he hasn't seen this much snow since 1991. I will upload pictures soon! We keep shoveling our sidewalk and are developing walls of snow on each side, because it JUST KEEPS COMING!!One of the reasons I was excited to move out to Colorado was because they have real winters here. Snow - not freezing rain. Sun.

I have been considering writing something about Heather Ledger, but I haven't really known what to say that would be worth writing about. It's cheezy, but have been in a sort of shock since I found out he died. I don't know why. This story is practically a Hollywood cliche. I think its because when I saw him in the Patriot I was at a age of being easily swept away by the fanatasy of him. He
