We Signed the Lease!

Yesterday John and I signed the lease to our first apartment! Exciting stuff. We get a washer and dryer, dishwasher, patio.. I'm very happy with the choice we made. It's also in the same building that my grandma lives in so hopefully I will be able to spend some much-needed time with her. I'm really looking forward to be able to do my own thing with my place. John has pretty much agreed that I get to decorate :)

It's a little stressful at the beginning because I am now starting to realize how much money you actually need to spend to live comfortably. I definitely won't be doing much unnecessary spending at all. Not for a while anyway. I'm really happy that we chose to do this, because some of the places we looked at were kind of scary and I couldn't imagine myself living there, but this one I think we're really going to be comfortable living in this nice apartment.

I Chipped My Tooth...

That's right.. I chipped my friggin' tooth. And I am NOT happy about it. I managed to accomplish this by biting down pretty hard on my metal lip ring while I was chewing, which I've done several times before with no consequence other than a scare and a sore lip. But this time a whole chunk of my tooth broke off! I'm making it sound a lot worse than it is, as in you only notice it if it's pointed out, but still. Now I will have to file it down, which I'm not looking forward to. I'll just do it myself, because I don't really feel like paying the dentist 200 bucks to do something that I can do just as easily myself. I just have a feeling it's going to be painful so I'm definitely waiting to do that until it stops being so sensitive..

So this is just a warning to everyone who has their lip pierced, especially those who wear a stud in their bottom lip. If you end up biting it a lot like I do, I was seriously consider switching to a plastic ring instead of the metal ones. I did, and I think it's actually way more comfortable and I'm not so worried about biting it all the time and ruining my teeth.

New Pupper!

This is Bo, short for Bolyne. She's our new baby :)

But she has been called a bunch of other names. Bubba, Pup, Pupper, Bubs, Baby, Puppy.

Yeah, that usually happens.

She is a britney spaniel and is an aspiring hunting dog. I can already tell that she's a very smart girl.

It's funny when she conks out because once she decides she's going to sleep it doesn't really matter where she is, she's out. And she gets very floppy. I like me some floppy puppies.

She has also decided that she likes to eat pillows.
