I'm tired....so tired.
Since I have been back in England I am sooooooooo tired. Not sure why. I guess it could be from jet lag, but I have been sleeping a decent amount. Yesterday was the worst. Ian and I spent 6 hours driving around looking at houses and I felt like I had an elephant sitting on my shoulders. My eyelids must have weighed 100 pounds each. Today is better. I managed to get up at before 11:00am and I feel pretty good so far. We found this house in Amersham that is wicked. It is currently on the market to rent, but we are going to inquire about buying it. It was built in the 1930's by a famous architect named Amyas Connell. The house is on http://www.chancellors.co.uk/psearch/fs_psearch.asp?I_mode=R scroll down to Highover Park, Amersham. Hopefully you will be able to see it in all it's coolness. I better get back to work. I still haven't unpacked. Yikes! Our flat is too small to have suitcases in it. I think I have been stalling because my closet is over full and so are my drawers. Guess I will just have to take over more of Ian's closet. Ha! Peace.

Welcome home or welcome back?
We are back in England after the easiest flight ever. Ian slept most of the way and I read and watched movies, very exciting. Our amazing friends Martin and Nicola had been food shopping for us so we would could eat when we got in since it was so late and this is not the land of 24hr anything. I am so tired today, but I have managed to stay up all day. Yeah me! This afternoon I hopped on a train, using my new Oyster card and headed to the studio. I started recording vocals for a new song I am working on. I am now going to go home, eat, and finish watching Bourne Identity. I hope my spelling is better on this blog, I have had some critisism on my attention to mispelled words. Justin I hope you approve.
I am fully missing America and was ready to go back the second I arrived in this dull, grey, cold country. As soon as I hit London I felt better. Somehow the grey skies are more bearable once I am surrounded by the buzz of the city. To add insult to injury though, the two reasons I came back so soon have been cancelled. The Mel C concert and my business class teacher just didn't show so the whole class might be cancelled. I will keep you updated as soon as I know.
I will finish this blog with a big shout out to my best friend Heather. Thank you for my best visit to Tulsa yet. Thanks for organizing the party. And to my family..... I miss you all soooooo much it was awesome to see you.

Family Photo
When I was in Tulsa we went to Stillwater to visit my brother at OSU. This is a photo taken at a pond on campus that a scary, killer swan inhabits. The reason I look so uncomfortable in the photo is I was sure at any moment the killer swan was going to jump out of the water and clamp it's beak full of tiny little teeth onto my leg. Ouch! The swan had mercy on me and my leg was fine. Too bad it ruined the picture. Max and I had fun climbing tree's by the pond.

On Sunday I hung out with my Dad and Sherrie and then stayed at their house that night. It was teh first time I had stayed there, it was pretty exciting. My Dad and I looked online at digital camera's since Ian has said we can buy one while we are in America. I ahve found one and will put up a link next time I post. Max, Melanie, and Grant had lunch with us at El Tequila, my parents favorite place to eat. They eat there sometimes three times a week. The owners have said they are their best customers. We got the royal treatment of specail sample dips and complimetary, yummy soup. The food is fantastic and the best part is my Dad tries to speak in spanish to Haveir the owners brother. It is so cute to watch them try and understand each other. You might have to see it to appreciate it but I thought it was worth writing about.
I like to mole it!
You know the song "I like to move it, move it!"? Well Max loves it and sings it "I like to mole it, mole it. So funny. So that is what we are doing here. Dancing around singing I like to mole it, mole it. Max loves to dance as much if not more than I do. He is pretty good too.

Missy & Max
I am at my Mom's house in Owasso, just north of Tulsa. Max and I hung out this morning and played Hungry Hungry Hippo, Snakes and Ladders, and Connect Four. Max loves to have his photo taken, just like his Auntie Missy, so we played with my isight camera. Hope you like the outcome of our photo shoot.

Cuddly Couple
I can't remember what day this was taken, but I think it might have been after church on night and a big group of us were at Hutch's or it was on a night when we all went over and my fantastic Ian cooked banger's and mash for everyone. Yummy! Hutch got out his very technical digital camera that he scored when we were on the road with Delirious last summer and started taking photo's of everyone. Unfortunaly the best shot, of Paul Burton's butt in the middle of this ring, has been deleted never to be seen again.

My 15 minutes
I am mentioned on the Delirious website from the photo shoot last Monday. If you would like to check it out mainly for my Mom and Dad it is at www.delirious.co.uk. Check it!
Last night Ian and I went to see Hanson in London. They rocked of course. It was an interesting venue, very small but kinda cool. They played it becasue they had sold out the larger venue a few nights before. Fern Levin from Top of the Pops was there and she crowd surfed to the stage on her stomach. Ian and I were confused at her choice of positions, surely on your back is safer, but it was funny to watch. I am almost postivie she got groped. SHe must have liked it because she did the same thing on the way back.
It was so cool to see the guys again. I was going to go to the Funky Buddha with Isaac (the party animal) and some label poeple, but Ian just got back from Auz so he was not up for it. Oh well another time.

Off Day
I just did a photo shoot with Delirious yesterday and I am so tired today. It was a fab day at a fab location in Chichester, England. The Goodwood House. Amazing. They guys looked amazing and were so easy and fun to work with. I think the Art Director has mentioned my name on the Delirous website. www.delirious.co.uk. Check it out.
