Busy Busy Busy

All of a sudden for some reason I just feel soooo busy! I went out last weekend all weekend practically and the same goes for this weekend. Last Friday I went out to eat with a few of my friends, which I don’t need to be eating out so much I swear at my job I have so much food piled up in the fridge from take out places it’s not even funny. Then on Saturday I went to the Zoo with my grandparents and my little sister Baylie. We walked a lot I didn’t realize how big the zoo in New Orleans actually was. I remember going as a child whenever we’d visit from Jersey, but I guess over the years they just kept adding stuff and man it was torture. I had my SLR camera with me and just having it around my neck and everything it was just miserable. Also wearing flip-flops is not ideal I am sticking to my Converse from now on. No more just hurrying and sliding on sandals I will take the extra time out to tie a few shoe laces. Than Sunday we did the usual go to 11 o’clock mass and it was kind of the only day I really got to relax and I need to learn to relax more. My doctor actually says he believes stress may be a factor in triggering my seizures so I need to find things to relieve my stress. Uh yeah right I am 17 years old there’s no such thing as being “stress free” especially since I just learned in the state of Louisiana I have to be seizure free for at least 6 months and I have to have a doctors note before I can drive again so currently my license is non-existent.  Also if I do decide to drive and I have a seizure behind the wheel and cause an accident…my insurance will not cover it. Awesome right? See that’s stressful right there! Anyways before I start STRESSING myself out I got my boa constrictor today!!!! I did finally decide to get the snow boa. I am one that really appreciates animals (my grandpa is a vet how could I not?) and this has to be one of the most beautiful creatures I have ever seen. My grandma who really doesn’t care for reptiles even mentioned how stunning he was. It was actually really hard coming up with a name and my grandpa wouldn’t help (he was being a butt) so I just named him Noa Boa. Makes sense to me. Anyways tomorrow I am going to the French Quarter with my friend to take some pictures of her and I’m sure I’ll take pictures of other things. I really want to get to St. Louis Cathedral, but being that she’s not very religious I doubt it will happen, but we will see.

WordPress You’re Addicting

I totally was not going to blog today. I had it set in my mind that tomorrow would be more interesting to blog about, but alas wordpress just sucked me in.  I just wanted to check my stats and while I was doing that I said “To hell with it.” and now here I am typing this completely pointless entry. Nothing much interesting happened today except that my grandpa knows this guy who breeds boa constrictor’s and he said he’d sell one to us. SWEET! Now the question is…what kind do we get. I never realized how many options I had until the guy started naming the different types he had. He actually does have one type I am very interested in called a Snow Boa which it’s basically a white boa constrictor. It’s actually albino, but I’m guessing it is just a lot lighter than some of the banana yellow albino boa’s you see around :-D I saw some pictures he had, but they’re very very pricey. My grandpa said he’d sleep on it, but I am definitely getting one just maybe not that one. We will have to see. He suggested maybe an albino one, but their bright red / orangey eyes kind of freak me out a little. :-D Nothing like waking up from a nap and seeing these two little eyes glaring you down. Ha ha. No thank you.
