Where in the World is.....Amy?

So just a quick update for those of you who don’t know. I quit my last job with Quest Diagnostics….because it sucked. I have nothing against the company, I just didn’t like the job. Anywho, I am now working for my old boss at a company called Catalent.

What does Catalent do you may ask? Well they are a drug packaging company, meaning customers send their drugs to us to put into soft gels or plastic bottles or to place the pills in the plastic casings with the foil on the back. I was given a tour of one of our facilities and it almost felt like I was watching “How It’s Made” on the Discovery Channel, it was really interesting.

So with this job, I will of course be traveling again, especially this summer. I don’t think I will be home for more than 2 weeks at a time this summer. I will be crazy busy this summer, but I am REALLY okay with that. I am the kind of person that thrives on being busy and my recent hiatus from work nearly drove me insane.

I will of course be going to some interesting and not-so-interesting locations. And since I will be all over the world this summer, if figured it would be fun to let all of you know where I am at so you can either be very jealous or laugh at my misery.

But what fun would this be if I just told you where I am at? Not fun at all!!! Unfortunately I don’t have a picture of my current location, but I do have a clue.

Ready?!?!

Here it is: “Ned... Ryerson. "Needlenose Ned"? "Ned the Head"? C'mon, buddy. Case Western High. I did the whistling belly-button trick at the high school talent show? Bing. Ned Ryerson, got the shingles real bad senior year, almost didn't graduate? Bing, again. Ned Ryerson, I dated your sister Mary Pat a couple of times until you told me not to anymore? Well?”

I will admit that I am not in the most interesting place in the world, but it is beautiful here and the town has a couple claims to fame, one of which is referenced above.

Let me know if you can figure it out?

Laughed so hard...I snorted!

So on Tuesday's American Idol, at the very end when Ryan Seacrest was introducing David Cook's last song, he was standing down in the audience. Anyway, there was this kid standing next to him that was cheesing it so bad.

Well I thought it was hysterical, so naturally I tried looking it up on youtube so I could show my friend Natalie, who for the most part has the same sense of humor as I.

Well first I typed in "David Cook and I don't want to miss a thing", and that brought up a lot of hits and only a few of them showed this kid for only like a second.

Well Natalie came up with the grand idea of searching for "weird kid standing next to Ryan Seacrest". And what a grand idea that was. I was able to find ONE person who also noticed this kid and, I am assuming, found it just as funny as I did.

So now that you know the back story. Enjoy this video of "the weird kid standing next to Ryan Seacrest".

You Can Buy Anything at Costco!

Did you know that you can buy coffins at Costco?

Just a fun and weirdish fact.

Introducing Baby Hafe!!!

Now it has been quite a while since I have had time to post anything, I apologize to those of you who actually care enough about our relatively non-eventful life. Anywho, I have plenty that I would like to post, I just haven't made the time for it.


I got some good pictures from Jer's b-day like a month ago, but I have yet to post them...they are to come I promise.


Now to the subject of the post, don't get too excited...I am not pregnant. This is not a picture of an ultrasound.


So. I randomly came across a picture the other night. I got a cutesy little email from a friend and it had some pictures of babies with cute little sayings. So I was just casually reading through the email, not really remembering anything that I saw or read.....until....this little bugger came on the screen.






















And my jaw dropped, the world started spinning, I forgot what year it was, and I started talking gibberish...No not really, but I was shocked. I could not believe what I was seeing. If you do not see what I am talking about....let me explain.


Look at the pictures below I will point out some features that tie back to this picture:


















Lets start with top of the head and move down:

• Hair: Blonde and stick-em-up straight hair. Jer was a toe-head blonde as well, ummm, and his hair still sticks straight up, it takes a lot of product to tame that beast of a mop on his head.

• Hairline: The kid's got a big forehead, and thanks to my friend Shawna Rasmussen in the 6th grade who decided to bust out a ruler and measure my forehead, I found out that mine is like 3 and 1/2 inches, I think that classifies as a big forehead.

• Ears: Notice the angle of the ears (from Jer) and how big the ears are (those ginormous babies would come from my side of the family)

• Eyes: Beautiful blue, just like my hubbies

• Nose: Course it is just a baby nose, but that looks like it is going to be a button nose. Well, there isn't a point to be found on my nose. (and the nose on the kid is randomly tan and I have been known to get a little brown in the sun)

• Skin: Nice and pale, just like Jerame

• Face Shape: Nice and roundish, just like myself.

So....yeah. I am pretty sure my kids will look pretty close to this (but hopefully they get my skin, cause I am not gonna lie, being tan year round is pretty awesome!!)
