Well I have a new website. I hope it works outs. It's not as snazzy as my old one but it will work for now. And hopefully all you will have to do it look up allysonbullock.com and it will take you right there. It through filedby.com it's free so that's a plus. And I'm hoping in the some what near future to have a real website and not one that is linked to anything else. But since I only have the one book right now it's all right. Anyway check it out.

It's pretty basic right now but I'm still messing with it so hopefully it will be better in the future.

Now totally off topic again. I'm going bowling today and it should be a blast. I haven't done it in a few months but it's like riding a bike right? You never forget. Lol. Well that's all for now I may add later. I may not but I will say this if I don't. Happy August. (Since tomorrow it August).

This year has gone by so fast. Where has the time gone? It's almost August and here the summer is near done. Not that I have anything to complain about. I mean I don't have to get ready for classes to begin or not wanting these lazy days of summer to be over. I am glad that I am not in college anymore. I will eventually go back for my Masters. Whta it will be in I have no clue. Most likely Library Science but I have been leaning towards a business degree. But anyway right now and I guess I could be considered out in the real world. I have a job though it is retail but I love what I do and where I work. I love being surrounded by book. I know I mentioned that before but I do. But anyway 2009 is half over and soon it will be 2010 or even closer it will be my 25th birthday. Boy am I looking forward to that one. Yeah right. I guess on the plus side i will be doing something awesome on it. I will be going to Disneyland with a couple of friends and my mom. So that will be cool and plus I get in free on my birthday. All one has to do is go to the Disneyland website and register and they send you an email you print out and take with you and show upon entering.

It's really neat. Back in June I went with my best friend for her birthday and we had a blast. So I recommend it if possible.

These are from last year but you get the idea.

But back to the subject at hand. It seems like yesterday I was glad to have graduated from ASU and was looking forward to doing nothing but working at Barnes and Noble for a while until I got my priorities straightened out. Have I done that? Not really. I am relying on my constant contempment that is working and as I told a friend of mine earlier, doing nothing on my days off. Oh I do the menile stuff that doesn't require effort like laundry or the dishes or vacuum but otherwise I just sit around and read or watch TV. It's kinda pathetic but sometimes I like my solitude. So I don't mind. And it gives me an excuse for makeing myself get back into my writing. Which, I am so happy to say, I have begun again. So no more writer's block. YEA!!! For now anyway. I will work on getting writer's cramp. ;)

They say a picture is worth a thousand words and I'd say that's about right. I have been going through things trying to prioritize and simplify what I have and that has not been going too well. I never realized all the stuff and I do mean stuff that I have. And some of it I haven't used in ages. I'm pretty sure that the reason I'm doing this is to do the same to my life. I'm trying to simplify it but of course it has it's stuff that been there for years. And some things you just can not get rid of no matter how hard you tried or thought you wanted to.

Anyhow, to back up from the serious stuff. I was going through all my old photos back when I was in high school or even young and I just can't believe that that was me in some of those pictures. I look at them and think how much I've changed (and how much I haven't). It's weird seeing a picture of me without glasses because for as long as I know I had glasses. I got them in 8th grade (I think). It was so long ago that I can't even remember. And the ones where I was just a cute kid with short hair and bangs. It's so unreal. And to see some of my friends way back when to. It's funny and strange at the same time.

Okay to totally go off topic. On Tuesday July 7th, Cardinal's Quarterback Kurt Warner came into my work. First I should let you know if I haven't all ready that I word at Barnes and Noble at the Tempe Marketplace. I love it there because since I'm a bookworm I'm surrounded by the one of the things love. Anyway, he and his wife wrote a book and were promoting it with a signing. Now I'm not a die hard fan of the Cardinals or football for that matter (I mainly follow the DBacks and Phil Mickelson). So I wasn't like overly excited and ecstatic when he arrived. He's a really cool guy. So down to earth. I even chatted with him and his wife and publicist while I was on lunch for about 10 minutes. It was pretty cool. Anyway the signing went really well. I hope the book does well to. It's called First Things First and is about the family and how they put that first.
