My name is Nicole Elizabeth Martin. I'm 27. I am married to Josh Martin. We have the cutest baby boy in the world. His name is Jack Dexter. I have degrees in vocal music performance and broadcasting and cinematic arts from Central Michigan University. I suck at cooking, spelling, playing the clarinet and learning foreign languages. So don't ask me to do those things.
Other than that I'm awesome. |

Whenever we play video games, Jack has to hold a controller, too. He particularly enjoys Mario Kart. He rapidly pushes the buttons and intently watches the screen as he squeals and yells out “Yeah!” I truly believe that he thinks he is controlling what’s happening on the TV.
I pointed out to Jack Escanba on our large art print map of the U.P. and said “Escanaba” to which he replied, “Ahh-Ba-Ba!” He totally tried to say it.
Another one of Michigan’s grand attractions that is located just 10 miles south of the Mystery Spot is Sea Shell City. Not only can you see a GIANT MAN EATING CLAM! but you can also sea… I mean see (HA!) other rare oddities from Davey Jones’ Locker.
In response to this post and this post, the Upper Penninsula has it’s own Mystery Spot as well. And they have billboards all up and down I-75 claiming it was “Voted #1.” Voted #1 what, I don’t know. Mystery spot? Attraction? Buffet?
About 10 years ago I stopped at this mystery spot and I must admit I was mildly amused, although it was horribly over-priced.
(Thank God It’s Pancake Sunday!)
Take the car keys when we aren’t looking and push the auto-start button, the trunk release button, and the unlock button so that when we look out the window we see the car running with the lights on and the trunk wide open. This happens several times a day.
Sweet!
I’m not going to post my tumblr cloud because none of it is important to me except for the number one most used, SISTER. I’d put money on it that I would be number one on Nicole’s tumblr too. Well, maybe pre-Jack. It’s probs Jack now. I won’t hold it against him. After all, he is just a baby. I’ll tell him about this resentment later, when he’s a man. That’s weird to think about. Jack being a man someday. Weird.
Jillian! Not only did Sister totally beat out Jack, but you beat out everyone because the words “Sister,” “Jillian,” AND “Jill” were some of my most used words!
Ordered by most used (make your own):
time people night love sister josh life nicole actually travis look yooper feel week maybe world wedding doing little escanaba movie makes home jill jillian dude funny jack awesome pretty
Words that I love made it on here: Sister, Jillian, AND Jill; Josh; Jack; Travis; Escanaba; Yooper; home; dude.
Josh and I are poor and can’t afford the ridiculous costs of cable. So we are currently huddled over the computer watching the game-cast of the Tigers game on ESPN.COM. It’s pretty nerve wracking not being able to see what happening and depending solely on the live updates of a computer.
| Me: | Did you see what my dad is doing for it? He's going to end up donating a ton of money. |
| Josh: | He probably figures that he's never going to have to pay for a big wedding for Jillian, so why not? |
This was me last night.
In spite of the outcome, my feelings haven’t changed.
Go A-Rod!
