Not A Failure!

My birthday was yesterday! I recieved great presents! My favorite free gift was definitely my very first First Time Find of a geocache! Jake hid one at the lake and sent me out there to find it when I got off. Teala was kind enough to stand out there while I trekked through the woods to find the darn thing! I reached into a tree and got ant bites all over my hand! Thankfully, that wasn't the tree he hid the cache in... haha. It was so exciting to recieve a FTF on my birthday... I was elated. =] I also hid MY very first caches. Woo Hoo! As my caching name has something to do with "vinyl" I felt it was only appropriate to decide to connect/name all my caches by lyrics! I love lyrics. I love caching. Hence... the marriage of the two! =] Moving on... Tomorrow it is to the casino with my favorite people to try and get lucky!

Ohhh! My flowers! Check em out!

I don't really think I've mentioned the fact that I've been getting into the rockabilly scene a tiny bit... but I am.

I remember this movie/song from my childhood and I've dug rockabilly since. I can't say that I've ever been knowledgable about it.. but it does kinda put me in the best mood ever when I listen to it. Randomly I decided I wanted to learn how to do victory rolls! These things are totally blog worthy, they're harder than you would think to (pardon the pun) pin down!!

Before...

At first, I thought, wow, I've got this!! Then it started to fall...

Try number...

Well, two was a disaster...

Three didn't go so well either... notice the annoyed face? Yeah.

So, this is what I ended up with on try number four! It was really hard to get a decent pic of it! And it was even harder to accomplish! Yikes!

On the plus side, I had a blast trying! And, my hair looked even longer when I unrolled it and found some wavy curls!!

(random note: the smaller my waist gets the larger my head seems to be..its so odd!)
