Braves Game

For Paul's birthday I got him two tickets to see the Braves play against the Nationals in September.

The stadium was pretty awesome.

GO BRAVES!!!

Batter up.

We saw this and swore up and down that the plague of locusts was upon us.

Despite the impending doom we stayed and watched the game.

The running of the presidents was hysterical.

Apparently Teddy Roosevelt has no wins. Sad.

But Abraham Lincoln pulled an early lead for victory.

Another shot of the stadium. This place is awesome.

Paul and I waiting for the fireworks show played to Michael Jackson music. Apparently we can't go anywhere without him haunting us. It's ok though I think we kind of like it.

This was an amazing night.

The Unicorn & The Butterfly

I think my new favorite obsession is photo booths. They are so much fun and looking at the photos is even more fun. Carol Ann and I put probably way too much thought into our photo strips but they came out so amazing looking that I think it was totally worth it. We look hot. Not trying to sound narcissistic or anything. Usually you won't catch me saying something like that about myself. I'm not negative about my body image I look at as a realistic approach. I'm not fat or skinny... I'm just me, Erin.

I wish when I say that to people they wouldn't look at me like I'm being negative. I know I'm not beautiful and nor do I try to pretend to be. I wear clothes that cover up the bad and try to accent the good. You won't catch me in a pair of skimpy shorts even on the hottest summer days. I'm pretty sure no one needs to see that and I wouldn't want to feel that exposed even if I was as hot as Eva Mendes.

Guess Who

This is a photo of me and Paul playing Guess Who on our fort date yesterday. He kept asking silly questions like that and I asked if his guy was a ginger/day-walker. Clearly a good question so I would know if his person would try to steal my person's soul. We also played battleship. There would have been candy land fun too but we were both too lazy to run downstairs and get it. We did try to play some old-school video games but the system I bought broke. At least we were able to have a small Nerf gun battle because he got me two Nerf guns and a box of 100 ammo (he's so considerate).

About Last Night

Last night was fun (well, what I remember) went out to the bars with some friends and had a little too much to drink. Paul surprised me and showed up which definitely put a big dorky smile on my face. Everyone who came out for my birthday picked me up when they saw me with the exception of Sarah and Paul. Paul came up behind me while I was sitting on my stool and leaned me back and kissed me. We went to Richbrau (which was lame so we left), Siné, McCormick's, and finally Mars Bar. I don't remember a good portion of the night thanks to Paul purchasing me a blue motorcyle which I do not recommend as a drink. YUCK! I drank most of it anyway... I mean he did buy it for me. I'm very glad I didn't get drunk enough to make an ass of myself at Mars Bar and agree to do Karaoke. I would like anyone reading this to know that I had a DD for the night so I did not drive home drunk. I did other things on the ride home drunk. ;)

Quote of the Day: "Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, it is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver." -Jack Handey

Another Year Older

Well today is my 22nd birthday. I don't really feel older at all and this year it doesn't feel like that big of a deal so I don't really have anything planned. Although I have no plans I wouldn't mind going out and doing something. I really wanted to spend some of today with Paul but he has band practice tonight so that's really out. Secretly I wished someone would plan a surprise party for me since I've never had one. To me I think having a surprise party would make me feel far more special since someone else planned it instead of me.
