Some Notes
10:00 PM
Dear Bedroom,
I really want you to be clean. I don't have the gumption to clean you. I'm going to go to sleep tonight, and I'm going to hope you'll be all spotless when I wake up. If you aren't, I'll be very put off. Kay thanks.

I am so excited! I can't wait to rejoin the fun and games (and stress) that you create and sponsor!
Will you plot yourself already? I've been wracking my brain about where to take the many characters that are now named in the world that is now mapped out. But all of that is useless. They'll all just sit happily in their little imaginary world with no adventure. That's boring. You will never get read. So hurry and create a reason for me to write you!
Your adoring (frustrated) author.
To My Job:
I really like you. There is nothing better than getting paid to play, color and watch Disney movies. I approve.
(I would appreciate it if you would create an instant disinfectant sprayer for all of the children. I'm not a fan of being sick all weekend.)
Hey Cold!
You're ridiculous. My lungs rumble so much when I breathe you'd think it was 2012 in there. Go away.
Also, I don't like your irony. "Get some rest and I'll leave you be." Yet your insistent need to tickle my throat and make me cough won't let me sleep! Jerk.
P.S. Making me cough so hard I throw up isn't acceptable. I officially hate you. Except you made me lose five pounds... I guess I'll forgive you...
-Dearest Halloween-
My feelings for you do not reflect the picture above. I love you. I love feeling like a little kid, getting all dressed up in silly outfits. You make me smile. Oh how I miss the days when I would map out my trick-or-treating route and fill two pillowcases with candy. More than I could ever eat of course. I would wait until Spring and walk door to door selling it all back to the people who gave it to me. *Sigh* Good times.
I love you.
Costume,
I'm really excited about my ideas. Please don't make me look fat! I would be sad.
Thank you!
P.S. Voting for my costume is still open! Go vote!
To the people who tagged me:
I'm a slacker. I'll admit it. I honestly am just not in the mood to answer more questions. But the rest of you should definitely check out their blogs! They are awesome!
Jamie @ Spread Your Wings and Fly
Daniela @ dk everyday
These blogs are wonderful! So sorry I didn't answer your questions! I hope you three love me anyway!
Awards -
I've been getting a lot of blog love lately. THANK YOU! You're all so wonderful. I love getting awards. It's so fun to get blog love and then pass it on! But I feel like I am only ever posting about awards. (Which I love to do.) But I don't want to weigh you all down. So I've created a separate blog just for accepting and passing on awards! I'll announce whenever I have accepted and passed one on here, so you can go check it out, but won't bore you all with award posts here if you don't want to read them. It's not quite finished yet, but a few more awards will be posted there over the next few days! Thank you all so much for the blog love! It's overwhelming and I love you all! MWAH!
Dear Social Life,
We've kind of been on the rocks lately. I'm going to give it my best shot to get out there. I'll make you proud. (NaNoWriMo is going to be a major competitor in November, but I'll try my hardest.)
Sleep:
Take me away.

Notes and a Giveaway!
11:50 AM
Dear Cold,
Please go away. You're not pleasant and I really quite dislike you. From not being able to fall asleep last night due to coughing and being woken up this morning, panicked and unable to breath; let's just say, We're NOT Friends! Stop with the acheyness and congestion.
Please and Thank You.
Girl praying to get better.
Zelda,
I'm glad I have you to help me waste time. You're the best. Twilight Princess is still my favorite, Wind Waker is amazing, but long and tedious. And now Ocarina of Time is amazing, but I've forgotten so much. Thanks for the fun times!
Your fan,
Katie
P.S. You're even more fun when you have a buddy to race through with. SO fun. :)
Books,
I love you and I'm sorry we have such an on again off again relationship. I really want to read you! I really do! But there are so many projects I'm working on that you get forgotten! I promise to try and read a little before falling asleep every night. I know it's not much, but it's the best I can give you.
I love you.
Your long lost lover.
Holy Customized Sneakers, Batman! I love you guys. Why did I wait so long to join this amazing community of bloggers?! Thanks for making me smile!
Katie Weber
Dear Cold,
You're still here. You think because I wrote about you at the first of the post, I would forget about you by now? Not a chance. Pack your bags and leave. Now. I won't ask you again.
Bed,
Thank you for being so reliable and taking care of me while cold annoys me so. You're the best.
Your cuddle buddy.

Twenty-one and four days!
11:06 PM
I've officially been 21 for 4 days. It's been quite the roller coaster.
Wednesday: I had the flu. It only lasted for the day, but I spent the day catching up on my TV shows, watching 2012 and starting Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I also received SO many birthday wishes and felt so very loved. So even though I felt nauseous all day, it was a really great birthday.
Thursday: I felt better, which was great. I finished my first book of the year (Odd Thomas by Dean Koontz) and it totally turned me off reading. The ending sucked and I was depressed for the rest of the evening. Had to stop myself from breaking into tears at the grocery store. (I get really into the books I read... when they end badly, I am devastated.) So to cheer myself up, I watched three awesome movies. Star Trek, Time Traveler's Wife, and The Blind Side. I felt much better by the time I went to bed.
Friday: My BFF Nashelle took me to lunch for my birthday and then bought me earrings afterward. The girl spoiled me with presents and I love them all. An adorable frame/candle set, a slipper foot massager, a skirt and a dress. Thanks so much Nashelle! Then 12 Steps which had such an amazing spirit. I love those meetings and I'm feeling so great right now!
Saturday: We had a Bridal Shower for a Relief Society activity. We have a few girls getting married this summer. It was lots of fun. Natalie and I went shopping after and I bought some pretty cute stuff. We went to Robin Hood later in the evening. It was... not my favorite. There were things I liked... but I didn't enjoy how much the storyline differed from traditional Robin Hood stories. Oh well. It was still great to hang out with her and get out of the house.

Happy Birthday?
4:17 AM
I never know what to say when people ask me "What do you want for you birthday?" I usually reply with a "Nothing. Really. Don't get me anything." because it's the easy answer. In truth, there are so many things that I want, but I don't feel comfortable asking for.
However, we all get those gifts that no one really wants and you didn't ever ask for. We put on a pleasantly surprised and gracious face, because it's the thought that counts. But in our minds, we know that the gift is eventually going to be dumped.
Well, my body decided to give me a gift this morning. Woke me up bright and early for it too. A big, shiny case of Food Poisoning.
Happy Birthday to me...
But I'm trying to put on a pleasantly surprised and gracious face, because it's the thought that counts. My body is merely saying:
Body: "Okay Katie. I decided to get you a very practical gift. You're 21 now, so I just thought I'd give you a taste of what it will feel like to drink. If you ever do, you'll have a date with a toilet."
Katie: "You're right body. That's a very practical and well thought out gift. Thank you."

Just Dance
8:58 AM
When I was younger, we had stake dances (a youth dance for the church) twice every month. From the time I was 14-17, these dances were the highlight of my 2nd and 4th Saturdays. (Though, I'm not sure why I went most of the time. I usually came home crushed about something some boy did. Psh. Boys.) I haven't been to a dance since New Year's Eve 2008. I remember that I really liked them, even with the stupid boys.
Tonight is the Valentines Dance. I'm actually really excited to go. I've got a group of girls I'm going with and it should be a really good time.
However... I have a cold. It's not crippling, but I sure can't breath. I've been taking every little step I can to clear it up by tonight. I don't feel I'm having much luck. I'm sure I could tough it out, but what guy wants to dance with a sniffling, stuffy, breathes-through-her-mouth girl? I don't want to leave that impression! And it's not like I can tell them I have a cold! The word will spread like the viral infection I'm likely to spread to a few people. "Don't dance with THAT girl if you don't want to get sick!" I'm in a pickle.
Speaking of pickles, my dad bought some last night. WHEW! They cleared my sinuses! I would so take a jar of pickles with me to the dance, but I don't want to risk two guys having THIS conversation. "So, was she cute?" "She smelled like pickles!" "OH! You were dancing with pickle-girl? Sorry dude. I could have warned you." No thank you. I do not much want to be pickle-girl!
So, I'm crossing my fingers, hoping against hope that the cold will diminish before 8pm tonight. I think I'm going to go and drain my sinuses again. (Have you guys ever used a Neti Pot? SO gross, but so awesome! WOO!)
