blowin' me up with her love...

so i've actually gotten verbal complaints this week about how i haven't updated my blog recently. god, my adoring fans are SO DEMANDING. ;) i'm beginning to grow weary of my superstar status, i can't live up to your expectations!!!!

anyway, i've had a terribly busy day today... i've watched 2 lifetime movies and the last half of 'blast from the past' on TBS. i had some grand plans off going to see 'garden state' but then jimi curled up on my lap and took a nap... and when a 20lb. cat goes to sleep on your lap you don't go anywhere fast.

so, small tirade here... i think just about everyone that knows me understands that i can be, at times, a little... snoopy.... i can't help it, i'm a curious person!!!!! i'm actually not ashamed, i just hate it when curiousity can turn around and bite you in the ass. today, for example, i learned something about my sister that i really didn't need to know. i would have slept better at night without the knowledge. grumble grumble, stupid teenagers....
but i received some surprisingly encouraging words from a long distance source, and i feel a bit better about the whole thing. anyway, tirade over.

so yeah, big week in the life of courtanay!!! one week ago today i was in alpine valley wisconsin playing a crazy intense beanbag game with tim as we waited for night 2 to begin! ahhhhhh i wonder if my PBD (post-bong depression) will ever subside???? it was too much fun! have i shared the pictures yet?

so much fun. from the second i got to our campsite it was as if i'd been friends with those people for ever! and the reality is that, besides wayland and the sexy tim mckay, i had never met any of them before in my life. it was dave matthews band obsessive-geekiness at its worst, and i LOVED IT. long story short, friday night we partied SO hard, saturday we tailgated ALLllllLLL day then went to show #1... where the band played one of my top five shows EVER.... we got 'i'll back you up', 'typical situation', and 'superfreak' in tribute to the late, great rick JAMES, BITCH!!!! it was actually a really HOT SMTS>Superfreak>Too Much run.... HOT HOT HOT. then sunday, despite stacey and i making sincere pledges sat. night to get tattoos b/c of typical situation, we did not, and chose to go back to tailgating instead. again, KICK ASS time, tim and i killed these kids during the bean bag game, only to be killed by the next two kids. oh well, everyone was so frickin' nice i couldn't be crazy competitive girl. i mean, i was crazy competitive girl, but i was a nice loser... ;) Sunday night, night2, we got a less exciting setlist, but still good... 'lover lay down' (so sweet....) and an unfathomable 'loving wings' tease that i'm CONVINCE only happened b/c stacey wished for it so hard... i mean SERIOUSLY, where else did that come from????????
monday came entirely too soon, and i was home again. the bong shirts were FANASTIC at the shows, but slightly embarassing in the detroit airport waiting for the final flight of my journey. hahaha, oh well. LOVE BONG!!!!! (bong's where we camped, did i mention that?)

4:30AM Sunday–
Courtney:Where were you going to sleep?
Remy: Uhhh, right there [pointing to air mattress].
C: *sigh* Really? Do you have to?
R:I guess I could sleep over there if you give me an extra blanket to lie on...
C: No, alright you can sleep here, I mean it *is* your mattress.

Damn right it is! ;-)I figured you had already been in my house, so it couldn't be that much of a stretch to share. And a recommendation............THAT.....is hot.

HAHAHAHA.

so yeah, then tuesday night i went for drinks with tina, she gave me a KICK ASS red kenneth cole watch for my birthday, LOVE IT! wednesday was MY BIRTHDAY.... woke up b/c my phone was beeping to THREE text message right in a row!!!!! the last one from ireland, which is always a pleasant way to wake!
wednesday at work i got about 1 billion ecards and several voicemails.... it's like, did everyone think i wanted a big hairy deal made out of my birthday??? i have NO idea where anyone got that!!! ;~)

wednesday night we went out for my birthday, it was FUN FUN FUN. ashley got me the olsen twins game, 'friendship connection' (where there are no losers, because we're becoming better friends!) and tim came down from Maryland for the festivities!!! kick ass!!! :)
met up with marie (l) later that night, there was some drama, the fairfax county police made an appearance... *sigh*... wouldn't be my birthday without LOTS of drama..... oh well.

friday night i went out to dinner with a SEXY group of boys, plus two hot twins.... they totally EMBARASSED me to death by having the cast of fridays sign happy birthday to me. ahhhhhh! do i have to stand up??? such fun though. chad and yusef are so cute i could puke - if i'm single and grumpy then everyone should be single and grumpy... ;) kidding. i just dont' understand how yusef got on the LTR guestlist and couldn't get me on!!!! not fair!!!
then i met up with kasey to drink wine and watch the olympics and bitch about stupid boys. ;) just kidding. actually, we spent a large part of the night in a heated game of 'friendship connection' and it ROCKED. we are TOtALLY better connected as friends! for example, kasey had no idea that if i could join ANY group at school, i would choose cheerleading or chorus over the school newspaper. well, now she knows! and knowing's half the battle. no but seriously, i think kasey was blown away that i could identify and describe the different olsen twins albums that were pieces in the game. that's right, 'cool yule' ... their Christmas cd... ROCKS. (okay, six years in a music store, people... i had to learn something!)

last night was the bachelorette party.... it was a BLAST. first we saw penises and then we dance for 3 hours at polly esters. a bartender i used to harrass (@ sportsfans) when i was 19 is stillllllll working there!!! but he actually remembered me and TOTALLY hooked up me, which was wonderful since i was ordering shots for every person in the world.

i'm tired of writing. time to go.

i will leave you with a quote from the new book i just got:
LEO july 23-august 22
"your lackeys will have told you that, as a leo, you are proud, loyal, courageous, generous, splendid, bedazzling ... [but] inside the hollow crown you (and i) know that you are an arrogant, intolerant, patronizing, pompous, self-centered bully; oh, and a snob and a drama queen, too. you never really got beyond what child psychologists call the terrible twos, did you? and, just like the tyrant of the toyshop, you can't really believe you're getting away with it. you remember that scene in the wizard of ox where the fearsome all-powerful wizard is revealed as an insignificant little old man behind a curtain...? that's you, that is - scared that you will be found out, and they will take away your crown."
