176. The flooding has begun and we still have plenty of snow to still melt…

Grand Canyon - Jaspar Lepak

My favorite track from her new album Send Me Home.

myspace

175. And so begins a series of dreary, foggy, misty days. On the positive side today is my Friday!

Black Betty - Ram Jam

Those Were The Days - Cream

This song was seriously stuck in my head all day.

Sweet Darlin’ - She & Him

172. So it seems like I’ve missed a few days of photos here. I’m just so unmotivated or too tired after work now. So let’s see, on the 5th Craig came home for spring break, on the 6th I worked, and today on the 7th I worked. So really not much going on. ‘Tis the story of my life.

Mad World - Gary Jules

Goodbye Stranger - Supertramp

Runaway - Yeah Yeah Yeahs

169. I hung out with Ashley & some of her friends & friends of friends at Wild Bill’s.

Killer Queen - Queen

168. Today has mostly been a movie day for me. I watched From Here To Eternity, Laura, and am about to choose another one to watch right now. Maybe Hitchcock’s I Confess.

I Want You (She’s So Heavy) - The Beatles

167. So my alarm went off at the usual time this morning, 6:37am. I grumbled a bit and closed my eyes again until 7:00am when my phone rang. It was work calling saying that I didn’t have to come in today because of a low room count. So I drifted back off to catch up on all of my lost sleep which was nice. Today was a bum day once I decided to finally get up and I spent most of it in these comfy new slippers that I got from Goodwill last week :)

Somebody to Love - Jefferson Airplane

166. My vintage sunglasses came in the mail today! They’re just like the ones my grandma had, same color & all! I love them!

All Along The Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix

165. Tonight’s after-work movie: Notorious.

The Logical Song - Supertramp

164. Today during lunch I was looking forward to eating some of these delicious dark chocolate m&m’s that I thought I had packed in my purse but hadn’t, they were at home sitting on my bed. So spent the rest of the day without my chocolate fix cleaning nasty hotel rooms, none of which had left any tips for me, feeling tired and sore, and cleaning some unknown slob’s poop from under a toilet seat. Oh glamorous job. One good thing is that my Maggie perfume was waiting for me in the mailbox when I got home. Now I can smell like lemon cookies while wiping up unmentionable things in trashed rooms tomorrow.

My Moon, My Man - Feist

163. After work tonight I watched Arsenic and Old Lace as a nice little way to unwind.

See You Later Alligator - Bill Haley & His Comets

162. Today I met up with Ashley. We bowled a couple of games and my suspicions of myself sucking at bowling were confirmed. We then ate at El Azteca and stopped in at Goodwill for some quick thrift shopping. Ashely didn’t buy anything but I found a plaid dress, a pair of snuggly slippers, & two pairs of brand new shoes that were only $1.99 and Ashley said that those were just selling at target for $16! A pretty good day. Now I have to try to fall asleep early so I can wake up early for work tomorrow. Now that’s no fun :(

Rag & Bone - The White Stripes

161. This morning I watched Leave Her to Heaven. I would highly recommend it!

Black Slacks - Joe Bennett And The Sparkletones

160. This one’s for Craig. Dad was talking to him on the phone and teasing him that we were eating fajitas today. (Of course I just stuck to the veggies & couscous.)

Baby Loves Him - Wanda Jackson

159. One thing that I can’t stand while driving home from work is that the sun is always right there in front of me to blind me the whole way. The visors in the car don’t do any good at all. Someone should seriously invent better visors that do more than flip down & sideways!

Shake, Rattle and Roll - Bill Haley & His Comets

158. All of today consisted of watching Nature programs with my parents and drinking tea. I really, really don’t want to go to work tomorrow!!!

No Time - The Guess Who

157. The second disc of Cleopatra. I’m sooooooo glad that I don’t work tomorrow!

Blueberry Hill - Fats Domino

156. I watched the first disc of Cleopatra tonight. Yes, only the first disc because I have to get up early for work :( I also encountered my first vomit in a room today. I was emptying a garbage can of what seemed to be only beer cans & bottles and some vomit also sloshed out. Oh Joy.

Louie Louie - Joan Jett & The Blackhearts

155. Detail of one of my new tea cups from Goodwill. Birds + flowers = a win every time for me. They’re just so pretty!

One Red Thread - Blind Pilot

154. Addicted. My Favorites are: Celestial Seasonings Chai Tea, Stash Chai Green Tea, & Good Earth Original Sweet & Spicy. I drink different varieties of the green teas each morning sweetened with honey.

O’ Sailor - Fiona Apple

153. Today I met with a bride about a July wedding, bought about three different kinds of new teas to try, and did some shopping at Goodwill since Tuesday is $1.49 day. I’ve been meaning to buy a teapot for some time so I found this cobalt blue one for $2.99 and also had to get these pretty little cups for .99 cents. They are just so wonderful that I couldn’t pass them up. They’re an octagon shape with no handle with a beautiful pair of peacocks and flowers adorning them. They don’t look like much in this photo so I’ll have to take a good one later to show how pretty they really are. I also got a brand new wool skirt for $1.49, a new dress for $2.99, & a new cardigan for $2.99. When I say “new” I mean that they’ve never been worn, straight from Target. I wouldn’t mind finding some more vintage goodies but it’s always satisfying to find brand new clothes for so cheap. I love Goodwill!

Your Protector - Fleet Foxes

152. Today’s movie: Hush…Hush, Sweet Charlotte Starring Bette Davis and Olivia de Havilland. I also watched Swing Kids tonight with the folks.

It Don’t Mean A Thing - Big Bad Voodoo Daddies

151. So all of the rooms today were horrendous and of course none of them left any tips. (It’s the slobs that don’t leave tips) In the worst room, one that looked like there had been some sort of food fight, food on the floor, in between the sheets, just everywhere they had forgotten a bunch of stuff which of course I brought to lost and found. One thing that I did keep though is an almost full heart shaped box of Ferrero Rocher chocolates. When it comes to food it’s finders keepers. And yes, they’re delicious. I’ve been sharing of course, that’s why there isn’t many left ;)

Stupid Cupid - Wanda Jackson

150. The ONLY thing that I like about winter is when everything gets covered in beautiful frost. These a a few quick snaps that I shot with my little point & shoot while driving (real safe, I know) to work this morning because I didn’t have any time to walk around & take good ones.

Après Moi - Regina Spektor

• Wall
• Mount Rushmore
• Crazy Horse 
• Custer State Park
• Sylvan Lake
• Needles Highway
• Scenic
• Badlands National Park

I think that even the bison looks alarmed.

Bighorn sheep.

Well we decided to go home today so all we did is go back to Badlands National Park to check the rest of it out. I don’t think that my dad was too much into what we saw there yesterday because he likes grass and trees but I thought it was beautiful and wanted to see that part of the park again today but everyone wanted to get going after driving through the part of the park we hadn’t gone through yet. The part we went through today was more prairie than desert so my dad liked that and there was also more wildlife. We saw some big horn sheep and more wild buffalo. There was also lots and lots of prairie dogs and when you rolled down the windows or opened a door that’s all you would hear, them barking, squeaking, and whooping. After that we headed back up to the highway and before we left I got my picture of the Wall 80 foot dinosaur :) So now we’ve been on the road for what seems like forever and I think we have a little over 3 1/2 hours to go.

Eric & Craig on one of the mounds at yellow mounds lookout.

Rattlesnake bait.

One animal I do NOT want to see!

A road in Badlands National Park.

On the way to the badlands.

An old saloon in the ghost “town” of Scenic.

On our way over to the Badlands the GPS told us the wrong way and we ended up going to the south end of the park instead of the main entrance. On our way down there we passed through this creepy ghost town named Scenic. There’s not many buildings so I don’t know how it can be classified as a town but boy, that place gave me the creeps! It looked like something from a horror movie.

So stupid!

Buffalo!

So cute!

Prairie Dog!

Last we decided to take one more ride on the wildlife loop road and saw (and heard) lots of prarie dogs, pronghorn, and finally saw a herd of buffalo.

About those buffalo, everyone knows that you’re not supposed to approach them, right? We were driving by and decided to stop to get some photos of a herd of buffalo. An old man had gotten out of his car and started to walk right up to them. I got out my camcorder because I thought I would maybe get some great footage for When Animals Attack. It looked like one was getting annoyed with him and he got scared and headed back up to his car. Then another group of people walked down there and a kid in a black t-shirt got really close. I decided to go a little further down for better photos because I figured that there was a whole group of stupid people between me and the buffalo so if she charged they would get gored while I had the chance to run. Then she looked pretty angry and started walking forward and EVERYONE decided it was time to go in the opposite direction.
