Proof That I'm Cool

I was at Walmart the other night and I couldn't help but notice this card as I walked by.



Being the extremely cool and literate person that I am, at first glance I thought the card said, "If you stroke for a long time ..." Did I mention I'm also curious? So there I am standing in the middle of Walmart rubbing a card and nothing is happening (I keep telling myself this isn't a precursor for things in the future). Since I was getting bored, I re-read the card and realized my mistake.

I promptly put the card back, looked around to make sure no one saw me and walked off... not before I took a picture of the card though!

No Meat for You!

It's official. As of February 16, 2009, I am becoming a vegetarian.

This is something I've been contemplating for a couple years now and I've finally decided to do it. Lately, the thought of eating any kind of meat sickens me to the point I can't even bring myself to eating it.

This past week I bought a vegetarian cookbook and have been studying it. Yesterday, I spent the morning grocery shopping and today, I got ready for the week by making a couple different dishes. I made a curried eggplant dish (which I liked, but my mom -- not so much.) and corn chowder, which is so delicious I'm pretty sure I could eat it for all three meals everyday.

So I'm all ready for the week and don't have plans to eat a single ounce of meat! I'm excited! This has been a long time coming.

Seriously. Can't. Handle. It.

So I know it's been a super long time since I've posted on here, but I really want to get back into posting regularly. Especially now since I'm deleting my Facebook profile. I wouldn't want all of you to not be in the know of all things Aimee related! I'm thinking I can handle blogging more often. What I can't handle is RODENTS IN MY WALLS, CEILING AND STORAGE PLACES!

What the freakin' crap?! Most of you know these two things about me. 1) I just moved into a new apartment. An apartment that I don't have to share with anyone! I'm still getting used to this. I've lived with people for so long. And 2) I HATE mice, rats, squirrels, anything rodent-ish. I am so insanely scared of them! I mean, I sometimes go out of my way to avoid squirrels if I see them on my way to campus. I think if I were ever in a face-off with a rodent of some type, I would just pass out.

I know all of you are probably laughing hysterically right now, but imagine my fright when I was laying (is it laying or lying?)in bed one night and heard something scurrying around in my wall! No joke! I've heard it just about every other night and it eventually stops and I fall asleep. Well tonight, I was sitting at my desk in my living room doing homework a.k.a looking at Facebook before I close my account tomorrow night and that scurrying noise had moved to my living room! Except it was louder and it sounded like it was coming from my ceiling AND my walls AND these storage spaces that are located in my walls!

With all of that said and the basic knowledge of my fear of rodents -- especially UNKNOWN SPECIES of rodents, I will be staying at my Mom's tonight because I Seriously. Can't. Handle. It.
