You Know You're Pathetic When????

You're 12yr old brother is setting you up with guys your age.....

So i was in Idaho with the family last week and i was sent into Deseret Book with Topher to pick up moms scriptures. Upon our entrance, topher turned tazmanian on me looking for "someone". So this "someone" goes5 by the name of Mr. Jinkins! Yes, everybody, he is tophers student teacher. So Mr. Jinkins (as the kids call him) or Mike knew all about me.....i just laughed and told him i was a little surprised by our set up! The best part = Topher! He was so excited to get us together that the minute we shook hands, he says to us with a big ol' smile "now you guys can get married." AWKWARD
The funny part= my mom was in on the whole thing. It was Tophers set-up but my mom supported him by driving me there and finding a reason for me to go into the store! Welcome back to Jr. High kids.....That little DEVIL.....

Hiltonhead South Carolina

So i know what you're thinking....erin you travel more than any person i know! This last week i went to Hiltonhead SC with a couple of friends. I had never been and it was a bLaSt. The first day we were there we drove to Charlotte a few hours away and went shopping and took a little carriage ride though the little town. I loved it....the houses are amazing and they've made it a really fun little historical town! And BONUS!!! Amy and i got a little more then we bargained for with our 20 bucks....don't ask. These are some of the cute houses.

Ok so not so small...these houses are in the historical district and actually are worth millions of dollars! AMAZING!

Amy, Erin and Candace on the carriage ride!

Yes folks this is what you think it is..... a JELLY FISH and they were all over the beach. We just played at the beach the next couple of days. It was really fun. The beaches are forever long and totally white sand GORGEOUS! Oh and we saw DOLPHINS! Actually SC as a whole is beautiful. Its really lush and GREEN and there are amazing wild animals everywhere. In the pond in the backyard, there are turtles everywhere and the turtles and alligators come and swim up to you when you go out there. (they think you're going to feed them) I wanted to feed Amy to the alligator since she was feeding the seagulls at the beach and then they wouldn't leave us alone but Candace said that was inappropriate!

OF COURSE

Favorite conversation i heard about this week happened between J-kat and her adorable little girl Avey who is 5! (um i probably spelled her name wrong and she may or may not be 5)

J-Kat: We're going to lunch with erin, do you remember erin?

Avey: Ya, she's the one without A HUSBAND!!!!

Why i otta' (fist of furry)

Of course thats the one thing the 5 yr old remembers! Those little kids are so BrUtAlLy honest.

Welcome to "GUYS SUCK 101"

This is showing how i feel about GUYS right now! I just don't even know what to do anymore.....could God have made them anymore GAY? And yes I know that i will probably be struck by lightening for saying this, but the answer is NO, because he is a man. And as far as i'm concerned, just hit me with the lightening and put me out of my misery! Cause if there is one thing i've learned being a nurse its that, YOU CAN'T CURE STUPID and thats what guys are!

For instance, A conversation had with a gUy earlier today. We had been talking about dating.... (and he's 29 years old)

Erin: So what are you looking for when dating?

Guy: You mean in a girl?

Erin: Sure

Guy: Somebody i'm crazy about, and they feel the same way about me. Would be a good wife and that i could see as the mother of my children.

(I know he sounds cute and like the perfect guy right now but just wait)

Erin: So is the girl you went out with this weekend (and kissed) the same girl you told me about last week that will probably be your girlfriend by May?

Guy: ya its the same one

Erin: And how did it go?

Guy: No long term potential

Erin: Why not?

Guy: 4 earrings, 1 tongue ring, 1 belly ring and a really wild side, i just don't see her as the mother of my childen.

Erin: And this is the girl you ditched me for? Cause if thats your type then we would never have worked out anyway.

Guy:NO! She's not my type and you and i are still going out.

Erin: So explain to me why you say that you are looking for the mother of your children and then you pick the exact opposite to date?

Guy: Good question

Erin: Ya so.....help clear up every girls frustration with guys. And why waste your time if she's not your type?

Guy: Cause she's hot.

AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH its like talking to a BrIcK WaLl

HOTT!!!!

So I get that its SPRING time here in AZ, so in the spirit of the season, i would just like to take a second to remember why AZ has been such a great move....i know, i know i didn't love it at first and i REALLY hate to even admit it, BUT....i'm starting to appreciate the weather. Especially when i look back at the winter in Utah/Idaho!

Walking outside in the morning and having the 70 degree sun shining down on me certianly doesn't suck.......the bad news.......... last night i was standing outside and it was around 60 degrees and i was FrEeZiNg!!!!! I've turned WIMP-BAG! A year ago that weather would have been shorts and flip-flop weather!

A little something!

This is a little something special from Candace called the BUTTERLFY

St. Patricks Day!

Just some good ol' times with the girls!

Happy St. Patricks Day...........................

The BIG Apple

Staten Island Ferry! FREEZING!

So Janelle and i took a little spring break trip to NYC this last weekend...Pretty much it was fun and FREEZING! Now we knew it would be cold but come on, we matured in LOGAN, UTAH the coldest place ever so you would think we could hack the NYC cold! Well thats a BIG FAT NO! Since i'm being lazy right now and not really in the mood to narrate my pics, you're just going to have to look with no explanations! Let you're mind go WILD!!I kissed him and he turned to stone????

Chocholate anyone?

F.A.O. SCHWARTZ

SERENDIPITY...YUMMY

Carnagies Deli!!! HUGE!

AND..... we went to WICKED "witch" was just that! HaHaHa, GREASE and MAMMA MIA!

Working Hard, or Hardly Working?

So since our hospital is new, we've been blessed to have some nights that are a little slower at work. I know the responsible thing is to be productive and use my time wisely but lets be honest you can only use 12 hours wisely for so long without wanting to DIE!!!! So these are a few activities we do make our nights go by.......

I pretty much rocked the house with WHEEL CHAIR RACES! I beat everyone in both chairs (ones retarded).

Melissa amazed us with her Kart wheel abilities! And she is AMAZING!!!! Shannon proved she's STILL GOT IT! Her cheer leading days are far from over!

OK well MAYBE shes still got it............................................

And after HOURS of practice, and i mean HOURS, J-Kat can do the hand clap!

Stalker Update

So as i explained before, the cupcake at work has a little crush on me...Well this crush has now turned STALKER! We just made a board at work that's all decorated and has a picture of each nurse and a little blurb about them. Well the other night J-Kat and i were looking at them and then came the cupcake to do some cleaning and low and behold my picture and ONLY my picture is missing! Coincidence? I think not!

That Special Someone....

I think we all know how it feels to be searching for that "SPECIAL SOMEONE", you know....the one that thinks, feels and in my case EATS the same as you do.....Well after years of searching, i'm happy to announce I've found her! Who knew she was in AZ all along! This is Jessica AKA J-Kat Grimmer......she is amazing, i would even go as far as to say that she's as azmazing as me (which is hard to be). Despite my parents opinion that there is no one as dorky as me out there, I knew there had to be, and this was confirmed upon meeting J-Kat....if you don't know her, get to know her, you'll be amazed.

Inter-Work Relations? I Think Not....

So there is this boy at work thats a house keeper and for security purposes we'll call him "CUPCAKE" ...... Now with that being said, lets give a little background. My friends always tell me that i turn mean when i find out somebody is interested in me and i'm not interested in them, so in return i have made some extra effort to be nice. WELL................this has come back to BITE me! I always felt a little wierd around CUPCAKE cause he would follow me around talking to me and asking me all sorts of personal questions. So one night i happen to mention this creepy feeling to two of my co-workers and all nonchallantly they whip out "oh ya, he likes you, he told me". So i've made a huge effort to surpress my nautral instincts and I've been nice and now i have a stalker! Everytime he comes to Labor and Delivery he sits at the desk talking to me and sits and watches me from the rooms....UUUHHHH sick. Its now bad enough that i ignore him all together. Well last night it was bothering Jessica and Shannon so much that they made me a NOT INTERESTED sign and taped it to my forehead! LESSON LEARNED: BEING NICE IS NOT ALL ITS CRACKED UP TO BE.

Here's the newest add-ons! I was pretty sure that i was going to have to pay taxes this year....BUT when you have an amazing mother like mine that knows how to work the system and cheat on taxes......................wonderful things happen! I'm totally kidding, but thanks to her doing my taxes I've been doing lots of shopping!
