Dec. 8th, 2009 @ 10:13 pm BNL baby!
The Barenaked Ladies were freaking awesome! Raven's first concert ever and what an experience it was for her - she got a Kevin pic (as in guitar) AND got to meet everyone in the band! I LOVE them!

Jul. 11th, 2008 @ 12:05 pm mechanic needed ASAP
Does anyone know a good mechanic, preferably in the north hills area or at least not that far from my house. I really need someone trustworthy, and I don't think that those big places are trustworthy, they overcharge and under pay employees, and most hire guys right out of school.

The little place I usually go doesn't have a diagnostics machine and my check engine light is one and I think there is a major malfunction with the fuel injector or something. It is having serious issues and I am desperate here.

so i think my car is pretty unhappy with the $10 potato chips I have been forced to feed her. I try and tell her that I can't afford a $50 meal like she REALLY wants, but I don't think she understands :(

Jun. 3rd, 2008 @ 01:28 am game six, stanley cup finals 2008
Tonight I paid $5 to go to see the game at the arena with Robyn, Fred and a whole bunch of other rabid penguins fans.

Oh dear god was it an awesome experience. The game was....incredible. And seeing it surrounded by other fans, it was just an all around worthwhile experience.

Winning helped :)

Dec. 13th, 2007 @ 09:20 pm quick update
ok, yeah, I haven't posted in AGES.

I am doing really really well, and I suppose that's part of the problem, I don't have much to bitch about! I have an amazing boyfriend who I love very very much (a few of you have even already met him!). If you don't have google talk (which I have at work)we pretty much don't talk these days, I have too much to do before I leave for boston and not a lot of time to do it in. I haven't forgotten you all and still read LJ, i just don't have time for comments. I am a bit nervous about the wedding this weekend, a lot cause I'm in it, a little cause of other stuff.

If you want a xmas card from the Carriker/Carmen household drop me your address, and if you want mine, just ask.

Much love all around!

Aug. 9th, 2007 @ 12:08 pm Hello again
I got an unexpected call from my number one gay boy last night. He seems to be doing well and we miss each other terribly - but really we are both at fault for that (well...him more than me).
We are supposed to get together Labor Day weekend (I say supposed to because, well, we all know Jason) hopefully Saturday night. I invited him and his sister and brother-in-law out to play fire till you tire with me and Robyn. If anyone else is interested in this, or at least in seeing Jason again while he is in town (I don't know for sure we will be doing anything Saturday night, and if we do we might go out for drinks after or instead or something) let me know and we'll see what can be arranged.

Yeah, so Robyn and I are total laser tag freaks still (sorry Lora!) but at least we have roped in our friends John, Amanda and JB and have made some acquaintances at Laser Storm, including the owner, who told us the other day that the young kids better be treating us right (some of them have been real snots) because we are family now. There aren't a whole lot of girl members and I think the young boys don't really know how to handle us. The older guys are awesome though (of course they are, we're hot girls)

Looks like we are not going to the farm at all this year, which deeply saddens me, but that's just not how it worked out. We are still members of the church and hopefully always will be, so we still paid our membership fee this year. Hopefully next year there will be lots of camping, I miss my farm peeps more than I can say. Jason expressed a concern that we weren't going because of certain people there, but I hope you all know that Robyn and I would never ever let one (or even more than one) person stop us from doing something we want to do. After all, we are adults, we know how to behave around people we don't like.

Annie is going amazingly well. It's sort of a crunched schedule, and that scares me a wee bit, but I'm always astonished at how tight of a schedule comtra shows are given. And the shows I choose to do almost always turn out to be great. This is my first show with kids, and since we've only had a couple of rehearsals, I haven't had much time with anyone other than the people I already know. I do need to make more of an effort, one of my favorite part of doing these shows is meeting and getting to know new people. It's just so easy to fall in with those I'm already friends with. Especially since I only hang out with them when we are in a show together.

The director asked me when I am going to get on stage again. That I don't know. I would love to, and I think I'm an ok actress, but stage managers are much more needed, I don't have to try out to be someone's stage manager. Plus I'm extremely good at it. There are actually paying gigs for stage managers around the city that I could get into if I wanted (I have actor friends sending me notices sometimes, but so far they have already conflicted with shows I am committed to doing)

Also a huge thank you out to those of my friends who always come out to see my shows. You know who you are It really means a lot to me. I know I'm not usually on stage, but I put a whole lot of work into these and am almost always proud of the result.

Feb. 18th, 2007 @ 08:36 pm PoP! Goes My Heart - Music & Lyrics

Robyn and I went to see Music & Lyrics today and OMG was it GOOD. Much better than either one of us through it would be. We are going to try and buy the CD tomorrow (yes, I'm actually going to actively try and buy a CD - shocking) anyway this musiic video was in it and made up both totally crack up. Hugh Grant does 80's pop star awesomely.

Since my sister is a dufus, I need help with her present. I want to get her girly movies but I am at a lack of ideas. I am going to send her husband a list and have him chack to see which ones she has - what is your favorite girly movie - doesn't have to be a newer movie, can be anything.

So far I have:
Dirty Dancing
Heathers

I am also toying with the idea of getting her season one of a TV show - any good suggestions on that? She is about the opposite of geek, so keep that in mind.

We just now got back from cleveland, where we went to see BNL.
OMFG
best
concert
ever

We made new friends (stacey and robbie!) AND met all 5 band members, got pictures with them and shirts signed by all of them.

Did I mention best concert ever?

There's more, so so much more, but I'm exhausted and need to tumble into bed now.
