Recapping my oh so very interesting life
Let’s see. I’ve watched a bunch of movies this past week, all of which were pretty good. All the Little Animals, Dogfight, Josie and the Pussycats (stop laughing. It’s the second time I’ve rented it. It’s actually very amusing). I think there were others as well. Oh yeah, saw My Big Fat Greek Wedding which I knew nothing about and was avoiding because I thought the NSync guy was a major character. But it was good and funny and that guy is barely in it and when he was, he was pretty amusing. I recommend it.
Picked up the parental units on Tuesday night. All is well although they have messed up my house, as was expected. They bought me the sweater I requested but alas, no man came with it. I guess I didn’t stress that part enough.
I’m an aunt again as of Wednesday, July 17th. They had to induce my sister-in-law because the kid was late and showing no signs of wanting to be born. Erin Rose, 9lbs 7oz. Lots of hair. Looks like her sister when she was born. She sleeps a lot. We went up Friday after work and got home tonight around 9:30. Bridget, the first kid, is the cutest thing ever. She’s walking around while holding onto things and she’s always got a smile on her face, showing off her four teeth. And she waves all the time like she’s Miss America or the Queen of England. So very cute.
My brother told me this story that happened to this girl that used to work with Kelly. This girl and her friend were driving down this road and I guess they were speeding and this cop pulls them over. He comes up to the car and asks, “Do you know why I pulled you over?” She replies, “Because you want to give us free tickets to the cop ball?” And the cop says, “No, cops don’t have balls.” And they look at each other for a moment. The cop then turns around, gets in his car and drives away. Hysterical and we’ve both decided to try that next time either of us get pulled over.
We went to a gorgeous park this afternoon with Kelly’s side of the family and her dad took us out on his boat. Awesome little boat. I want one. I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m part dog because I love the wind in my face.
Moving on...
They convinced me to try wakeboarding. My brother kicks ass at it and it looks really fun. So I tried but I couldn’t get the board the right way whenever he’d start the boat. Really annoying so then I tried water-skiing. I had attempted it twice before years ago and never made it up at all. This time I actually managed to stand twice before the skis decided that they each wanted to go out in separate directions and since I can’t do a split, I ended up in the water very quickly. The water and I bonded, especially when it decided to go up my nose twice. But I didn’t lose my contacts or drown or lose a ski and my rope-catching skills are superb, so it was all good. We ate and wandered a trail in the park across the road down to some waterfalls, saw a rockslide, walked back and then we went home. Four hours and we didn’t need to stop for the potty. What is happening to the Potty Queen? We didn’t need to stop on the way up either. I must fix that.
I hurt: when something hurts me
I love: chocolate and movies
I hate: brussel sprouts and missing previews
I cry: very rarely
I fear: not getting a job after college
I hope: I make it to Canada
I sadden: whenever I watch the stupid news
I feel alone: when I am alone
I kill: bugs with my shoes
I talk: on occasion
I listen: to music
I break: stuff
I see: clearly with my contacts in
I smell: food
I taste: water
I work: with nuns
I remember: not very much
I hold: a pen
I hide: my emotions
I pray: occasionally
I walk: to the car
I drive: to work
I read: all sorts of books
I burn: everything
I breathe: air
I play: whenever I can
I miss: being a little kid
I touch: the laptop’s keys
I learn: because I need to and I want to
I feel: hungry
I know: really bizarre things
I said: She got TV eye on me... while singing along with Ewan
I dream: very rarely and I never remember them if I do
I have: cleaning to do
I want: a man
I fall: when I trip
I wait: for things to happen
I need: food
I live: everyday
I die: when I cease to live
I bleed: green blood. I’m an alien bounty hunter. Please send Mulder to kill me.
