One day, I'm going to get away.

I'm going to get a new Ipod and fill it to the brink with nothing but Mat Kearney and Snow Patrol, and I'm going to get in a car and drive.

I'd like to think you'd miss me terribly, but maybe not.  Maybe I'm vain, and you wouldn't miss me at all.  I was told the other day that I'm naive, since I try to see "only the ( Read more... )

So right now, we're all sitting in the living room area, immersed in that God-forsaken Casey Anthony trial (oh come on. We all know she's guilty. No one accidentally chloroforms their kid, for Pete's sake). We just finished a lively discussion about warts, including a story from Travis about how he had to get one removed off his face because he " ( Read more... )

Missing swim tonight.
Instead, I get to go out for chicken with my grandparents and my mom's cousin.
Honestly, this cuts in to the time I was going to spend painting, but you know what?  I'm not going to complain.  I am not going to complain at all. I'm going to show up very excited for this, and I'll just dazzle them all with my sheer enthusiasm ( Read more... )

Happy birthday to my dearest mother.  :)  And happy Cinco De Mayo.

My entire house has spring birthdays.  I kid you not - my dad's is on April 26th, and then my mom's comes today.  I'm on the 11th; Jake's on the 26th.  Even Eddie arrived in May - on the 22nd, to be exact.
Crazy.

This is going to sound so random - but I could never, ever be a ( Read more... )

Weird day today.
Volunteered some more at Jake's Basketball tournament...I've got eight hours already, which makes me pretty happy.  Saves me work in the future.  And really, if I'm going to be volunteering, this is the way to do it - all I've really got to do is stamp people's hands.  And maybe make change, every once in a while, if the person ( Read more... )

Yesterday. :)  spent it with Jesssica.  I am now totally fluent in Shi, and am DONE WITH EXAMS, for the record.  Whoot whoot!  Happy. :) 
Hanging out with Jess is always eventful lol.  Oh my God.  We did pretty much everything from finally making me a facebook (i know; delayed) to singing in Italian and playing soccer with a foam roller.  Pretty ( Read more... )

Hello, world.
Things are going pretty good, if I do say so myself.  Not a lot planned for today...Sam's family is coming over later to watch football, I guess? but I don't even know if he's coming.  So.  I think I pretty much have the day to myself.  
That's going to be nice.  I've been so busy lately, I just need to relax.  I would watch a movie, ( Read more... )

My brother is practicing his trumpet about four feet away right now, and it sounds like a dieing goose.  I kid you not.  If I'm deaf by tomorrow, at least you know why.

Anyway.

Swim banquet tonight!  Just got home, maybe 20 minutes ago.  Great fun...very touching.  It's sad that Becca and Trish won't be on the team next year, since they're ( Read more... )

Hiiiii.
I'm back!

I really don't have a ton to say...we went up north, and camping...again...it was canoe camping, which was...er, interesting. Different. The canoeing wasn't all that bad, actually - just wet. My feet were constantly soaked. It rained one day, and then the next, a tree fell very very close to our camp site. Not even kidding - it ( Read more... )
