The X-Files…

Yesterday, while surfing the net for randomness like I so often do, I discovered there is going to be a new X-Files movie releaed.  I haven’t watched an episode in ages, but back in the day (when I was 12ish) I was obsessed.  I had every episode taped, I had my own X-File websites, I wrote fan fiction, I seen the movie in theaters 6 times, and owned the action figures.  Hell, with one of my friends we would even live action role play the X-Files.

I was always Mulder. 

I’m interested to learn more about this movie!!  I can’t wait until it comes out.

Pool update.

Me and the girls have been checking out the pool every day for the last week or so.  As of yesterday, a garden hose had been hooked up and was laying on the concrete next to the pool.  I checked today, and nothing has changed.

Maybe soon…  I’m hoping that by Monday it’ll be full!

Today, I did another awesome summer activity that I love – I hit up some garage sales!! 

I had twenty bucks, and I bought:  a walker for Lupe’s baby, three sleepers and two pairs of shoes for Karina’s baby, two tank tops for Isabel, a dress and a pair of shoes for Olivia, and a puzzle, some My Little Ponies, some plastic bracelets, and socks for the girls.  Tomorrow I’m talking my suegra out and we’ll be checking out some neighborhood sales I found on Craigslist. 

I love garage sales… 

 

I’ve been tagged…

Last week, Susan tagged me.    This is the first time I’ve ever been”tagged”, so I had to do some quick research to figure out what the heck it meant.

This is what I have to do:

1. Link your tagger and list these rules on your blog.
2. Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.
3. Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blogs.
4. Let them know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog .

So, 7 facts about me:

1)  In junior high I was in trouble so often, the principal had my parents on speed dial.

2)   I flunked Spanish class in high shool, and then afterwards started to become fluent after a year with Jose.  I’m very confident in my Spanish skills but I still have a to to learn. 

3)  Me and Jose started dating when I was 16 and he was 25!!

4)  My secret life long ambition has been to be a writer for young adult novels. 

5)  I wanted boys so badly that when I had my utrasound with Olivia I actually cried when they told me if was a girl.  I quickly tried to mask my tears of disappointment as tears of joy.

6)  I sometimes wish I was Mexican.  I know it sound so stupid, but my husband and family have such a pride in their home country and their culture.  Our family doesn’t even know where our ancestors are from.  WTH?!

7) When I worked at Werner Enterprises (the trucking comany) I was written up multiple times for using MySpace instead of working!  Ooops!

Being the loser that I am, everyone has pretty much been tagged already, so no tagging anyone for me.  Enjoy!!
