well i know they are all bad guys

A few weeks ago Spencer asked me for a bedtime story. So I gave him one off the top of my head. I decided that if I was going to do this I might as well teach him something. So we went over the fact that Hitler was a nazi, Mussolini a facist, and of course, Stalin was a dang commi.
The next day I was quizzing him on who was what. I let him know that what these guys did was wrong and that these three men were bad.
HIS RESPONSE
"I know they are all bad because Indiana Jones fights them."

Well ok then.

life

I have not written consistently in a while, partly because I have been busy, partly because I haven't honestly felt like it. Just a little bit of a funk but it is all ok.
Last week I was in Phoenix visiting the boyfriend. I had a splendid time, nothing is better than having a man who respects you, makes you laugh so hard until you cry, and takes care of you when you are having a hard time.
While on my trip I recieved a phone call. My boy and I were getting ready for a day trip up to Payson and he had just given me a fatty kiss so I was laughing when I picked up my phone because my sister has a tendency to call right at those moments.
"Hey J!" me
"Did Tom call you?" j.
Now at this time I was thinking of my friend thomas, previously featured in a Thursday picture. She was discussing my almost uncle Tom.
"No. Why would Thomas call me?" me
"Papa died." j
"Don't mess with me. Why did you really call?" me
"Seriously Papa died last night. I have to go." j
I have never balled so hard in my life. Poor Tim had an extremely upset girlfriend sitting in his house and NO idea what was going on. We decided to just stay home and watch stupid movies.
My papa was an amazing man. The thing that makes me the most sad is he won't be at my wedding. It is looking like the memorial service is going to be in the end of october.
That is my most recent update. Hopefully the next one will be happier.
Word to the wise. NEVER take anything or anyone for grantite. Never put something important off until "tomorrow"

perfecter

My brother was pretending to give me tattoos yesterday. The tool he was using was a pretend drill with a k*nex extension for the needle. He was "tattooing" my entire back.
Then he stated, "Man, if I was doing this you and Tim would be perfect for each other".
( Let me comment that my boyfriend, Tim, has thirty two tattoos. Just so this can make sense to all y'all).
I replied with, "What we aren't perfect together now?"
He quickly saved himself with, "No, you are but if you had this many tattoos you would be even perfecter".
Oh, Ed Hardy, you are the only thing in between me and a perfecter relationship.

The "P" list... not what you think*snicker snicker*

1. popsicles. ariana rissa jenelle and i used to eat them in the backyard and if you had matching ones we would do *POPSICLE POWER*

6. piercings. even though my body rejects them i think some are really cool on others.

SUCKER

Spencer and I were talking about the plans for the evening. Our parents had their weekly rehearsal and and Spencer usually goes with them but I have been known to let him stay home and hang out with me. THIS week however I had rented PULP FICTION and wanted to watch it so I told him he had to go with our parents. He, however, did not like this plan and promptly goes and tries to talk to our parents about it. Unfortunately, for him of course, they sided with me and informed the poor kid he had to go to rerhearsal. Upon hearing the news he comes back stares at me and we start this conversation.
"Sucker."-S
"What?" Me
"I called you a sucker."-S
"But why?"-Me
"That is what you call someone when you don't get your way"-S

why no one should play tag in the dark.

Monday night my mom, spencer, and I went to the park to eat some dinner. It was about dusk when we got there so we ate then let spence play. After a little bit he came back and asked me to play. So i started "chasing" him, which, included me getting up from the bench and just walking. IN a random change of events it turned into a full blown running chase. I scooted down the slide as quickly as i could. I jumped off the slide and went into hardcore chasing(which is like chasing but you wave your arms around like complete idiots...sorry thats hardcore dancing...look it u on youtube it's ridiculous) I was nearly in reach of the little buggard when much to my dismay i felt wet underneath my feet and before I had the time to react and get out of the mud I was down like black hawk. Luckily (and sarcastically) I was wearing a skirt and flip flops. Mud was all over my feet and left leg. It was gross. So I jump up and start running back to my mom, during that I lost a flip flop, luckily a fathere and son pair found it and gave it back to me. When I reached my mom she informed me that my skirt had flown up when I fell and she could see my butt (I was wearing tan underwear) and that the family next to us had watched the ENTIRE thing. Yay.

why my job rocks

Yesterday I was seating a party of three elderly people. I would guess around 75, maybe older.
A married couple and a girlfriend of the wife.
The married couple sat next to each other so the friend asked if the husband would prefer to sit across from his wife so she could look at her. He said no thank you. The wife interrupted and told her friend to watch out because he may want to really sit next to her.(Her being the friend)
The husband once again says no but this time gives the explanation.
"No i can pinch her from here."
Now being curious i look at him as he goes to pinch his wife's butt.
It was epic. They totally made my day.
I want to play grab ass in public when I am that old!

tales of a cutter

I am a full blown KLUTZ. I constantly run into things; doors, people, couches, and walls. Lately I have been doing more of the cutting myself on random things. When i say random i MEAN it.

The first thing i cut myself on was soup. Yes an "easy open" can of soup. All you have to do is pull the tab right? It should be simple but not for me... this is what I get...

NEXT was a pillow yes a PILLOW. Our pillows have vicious zippers.

The other day i was cleaning and cut myself on a vent.

Last night i took a chunk out of my skin with this...

I think I was pretend yelling or maybe singing in the car and it just looks like I want to be a vampire and attack this poor young man, or something. Which is unfortunate because, as you can tell, I sadly do NOT have the teeth for it. He seems uneasy though, i might be luckier than first thought.

my brother the mini hunk

Ok so I took this pic of my little brother today because even though I find it disturbing on teenagers and men, I think my brother looks especially adorable in a popped collar polo.

So after I take the photo I realize the little smirk he has got on his face. This smirk plus the popped collar reminds me too much of a typical eighties heartthrob. It is like he is saying with his face,"Hello Molly Ringwald."

Then on top of that as he ran off to play with his little friends he stops to ask me this, "Did I uh, forget anything? My good looks? My charm?" NO JOKE! That is exactly what he asked me. No idea where he picked something like that up... :)

Ode to N*SYNC

Thank you N*SYNC. Thank you Justin. Thank you Joey. Thank you Jc. Thank you Lance. Thank you weird one with white boy dreads(even though you always creeped me out).

I loved you. You knew everything I thought in 4-7th grade. You put all the things I felt and put them into beautiful, poppy, repetitive songs, that were so easy to learn all the words to.

You got me through some tough times you five. My break up with AH. Long trips with my parents. You were there for me in my walkman disc player.

Thank you as well for being unbelievably hot to nine year old girls(well except chris, sorry). It must have been tough but we all appreciated it.

Thank you Lance and Joey for doing the movie On The Line. It's nice to know that even pretty boys can get lead roles in romantic comedy. Though Joey, you are hilarious and were a much better catch in that movie.

So once again, thank you. You were the perfect band for nine year old me.

poor aleece

I have a beautiful friend named aleece. We have been together about four years now. At my last supper in my old town I had her, her boyfriend, my twin and my lil brother all with me. My twin and her boyfriend were cracking jokes about how unfortunate aleece was because of her bone structure and what a shame it is that she will never be pretty and stuff like that. My little brother who was being quiet and shy just sat there eating his pizza. Then I asked spencer what he thought of aleece's face. He stopped staring down at his pizza slowly moved his face to look at us with the most DISGUSTED look you could ever imagine. It was such the look of her face is so horrid why would you ever bother cute ole me with such sadness. Then a minute later or so he said he liked her face.

This is my friend Thomas and i hanging out while my sister made cupcakes(which ended up tasting like dirt, she knows it too. I will state here she relly can bake but this batch ended up the worst cupcakes ever) That is frosting in his mouth. I look frightened. Not one to show the grandparents or(very far) future grandchildren. But it makes me laugh and love Thomas so there you go.

quote day

Gravitation cannot be held responsible for people falling in love. How on earth can you explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love? Put your hand on a stove for a minute and it seems like an hour. Sit with that special girl for an hour and it seems like a minute. That's relativity.
Albert Einstein

the message bible

So today in church we read Luke 9. Now I recieved the message bible as a present from my grandarents for my eighteenth birthday but I have not taken it to church, well that is until today. So Pastor Brandon had us read 9:58 which in my bible read as " Jesus was curt,' Are you ready to rough it? We're not staying in the best inns you know'".
I started cracking up in church and i felt bad because it was a good sermon. So my mom came up with other verses that might be seen in the message bible, such as;


Then Jesus was all," We rough it. We live a thug life fool".


Jesus said unto them," Wazzup"


When hearing of his friend Lazarus' death Jesus hollared," Oh heck no, my home boy ain't finished yeet, you hear?" And went all gangsta on deaths butt.

Tim meets the family

So I have been dating this amazing guy named Tim for about two months now. He is sweet, intelligent, outgoing, and freaking hilarious. Not to mention super cute. The catch is he lives 720.12 miles away from me. Luckily his folks live like an hour away and surprised him with a plane ticket home for a few days before he starts his awesome new state job. (It is a great job so I am really proud of him)

All this leads up to the fact that we got to meet each other's parents. I was nervous but they ended up being really awesome and funny. So the next day he ended up staying with my family for my mom's birthday. We went to the river (where he played with spencer in the water and on rocks for like an hour it was cute)and he also ruined the shirt he was wearing to save my flip flops(which he was wearing at the time they were floating down the river mind you) Then we went to a car show. My mom wanted to go to my dad's gig so we babysat spence then he ended up just sleeping over ON THE COUCH.

The next morning my mom, dad, tim and i were discssing the ruined shihrt and Tim said it was fine and that he had a ton of undershirts. Then we explained how we went shopping for them last time we got to hang out. We explained it was memorable because we had a discussion on how awkward the underwear models on the packages stand. You know what i am talking about. Then we discussed how some brands disenhance and other enhance a certain area. Luckily Tim mention that in Australia there is an enhancing underwear and we all laugh, and proceeds with the fact some swim trunks do it to. The next part happens like a flash before I could do anything.
"That makes more sense"-mom
"why?"-me
"because its cold water"-mom

So there you have it. The conversation my parents and I had with my new boyfriend, every girls dream isn't it?

Living With a Seven Year Old

I recently moved back in with my folks and my brother. I had forgotten what it was like to live with someone so much younger.
I was doing something and my brother asked if he could help, now usually I dont mind him helping but my ocds had kicked in and I needed to finish it myself. I explained that he couldn't. Of course a couple minutes later he asked again. To which I replied, "You can't because I have obsessive compulsive disorder". He returned with, " They don't need to know I helped".

fun

Today I went out with a good friend who I have known for quite a few years. I love him to death. We went to the beach saw a movie then met my sister and her new possible roommate for sushi. Times like these I realize how different I am from my generation, and why its soo hard for me to make a ton of friends. I do not believe in the whole this is your one life have as much fun as you can. Now I am all for fun but the type of fun everyone keeps talking about is such a disguise. Talking mainly about how you get so wasted you don't remember how you got home. My bestie gets told all the time that she isn't living life because she doesn't drink or get high. Why can't my generation get that actions have reprucussions. Making out with that random hot people can actually hurt others. Everything anyone does in return affects the people around you.

things to learn from star wars

never be too quick to kiss...especially to make the one you love jealous... he(or she) may quite possibly be your twin seperated from birth...



never bring up the fact that it could or could not get worse because in a galaxy far far away this does not mean that it starts raining it means that you get attacked by a dianoga.







being cocky and in love with yourself is hot...thank you han solo







if u meet a member of the opposite sex that you hate right off the bat the odds are you will fall in love with them



though a clone of jango fett...a well skilled bounty hunter...boba fett is easily killed by accidently bumping into him while he is flying his jet pack...which proves all bad guys are "dumb" which leads to there is no point in being scared of them.


don't ever let hayden christiansen in your movie...well unless you want it to suck




all bad guys have tattoos...jabba the hutt for example...unless ove 60% of their flesh has been burned off

the kkk

my bestie and i were chatting it up through a well known internet site. That is not important though, the important part was what we were discussing. She was doing an essay for her argumentation class. She chose to write about the kkk.
this is how the convo went...


Bestie=If you ever need to write a report on Low Cognitive Complexity Argumentation....just turn to the KKK. The one thing I will ever thank them for is being big enough egotisitical idiots to make this term paper simple.


ME=yay for the kkk my black side loves them too(let me add this is sarcasm)


Bestie=oh. theyre so smart. idk y i didnt get it sooner.
(still sarcasm)


Me=i have seen a kkk speech...they are proof we cannot possibly be the superior race


Bestie=haha. so true.





well thats the most interesting thing that has happened lately lol

a funny thing i heard today

my aunt was watching an old movie with cary grant and katherine hepburn



one of the lines was


"you know what happens to girls like you who read books like mine? they start to think (and i may mess up this Part) which is never good."






love it

love

the thing i believe in most in the world is love. Not romantic love. Love as in love thy neighbor. Love as in seeing a human in need and that hard tug in your heart. Love as in unconditional no matter what the frick you do i will love you love. I find that most people don’t necessarily use this love constantly. In america the population tends to be self centered. Sometimes its a good thing but it tends to be unreal sometimes. I am not excluding myself from this group either. I am on MYspace so whatever.

In Darfur (an area in Sudan) a genocide is happening. The Sudanese government and the Janjaweed are trying to rid the land of all black non arabs.So far 400,000 have been killed and 2 and a half million have been displaced. Women and children are being slaughtered and raped. The janjaweed are even killing pregnant women because they are holding the the enemies in them.

We can and should stop this before it gets to 6 million
