Not Your Average Jane

Since its been a week since I last did this I'll recap my week right quick... Monday - stressful day from hell... seems as though everything I had to do had to be done Monday.... Plus pack and stuff to leave on Tuesday... Tuesday drove home to Houston, hung out with my mom and sisters, went out for a piece of pie with Brody to celebrate his birthday, came home, discovered text messaging with my sisters and slept.... Wednesday, went to the mall, shopped a bit ate lunch with a friend and his roomie... Went home hung out with my family some more, rented Boat Trip (don't see it), and Bend it Like Beckham (very good), made stuff for Turkey day, the usual... Thursday ate lunch about 1 ish with mom and my sisters as well as mom's boyfriend John and my sister's boyfriend Mike, as well as Baby whose a family friend.... We sat around talking and eating for hours... Literally we didn't leave the table till 4.... Only then to move into the living room for another hour or 2... Friday, more shopping, this time for birthday presents for me... went out for my birthday dinner at Vincent's... Had the world's greatest margerita pizza there... I like margerita pizza but I didn't know it could taste so good.... Then my sisters and I went to see Love actually... Very, very good... Hugh Grant and Colin Firth, never a bad combination.... Came back to Arkansas Saturday in order to avoid today's traffic... Missed seeing Bleu at the Sidecar Pub though... Which I do regret, but I'll be spending New Years with him at the Firehouse so its all good.... Today, I slept late and started unpacking, ate, and was finally able to fully check my email... Which I haven't read since Friday... 112 messages in my Yahoo inbox alone... Currently watching Cats and Dogs, which is interesting to say the least... But anyway on the way back yesterday I had some interesting thoughts... As well as creating some.... unique road games... I made up 3 new games (that I can remember)... One was "Ew, what's that? - The Road Kill Game", can you guess the rules? :0) Another was how many 18 wheelers can I pass in 5 minutes.... Again self explanatory... :0) And the last was one you can play anywhere, Name that Tune... An oldie but a goodie for sure... :0) As for interesting thoughts here's my current view on religion... Yes I believe in some higher being that created humans and the earth (though in 7 days???), but I don't see this being as male or female (though my friend Sean calls him the Big Dude in the Sky), nor do I see this being as being a vengeful or angry god... I think that he/she is more like a loving parent or guardian angel... One who knows whats right for you and what path you should walk in life, you just have to trust and have faith that things will work out as they should (as hard as that may be)... I also believe that the Bible is wrong... From the feminist point of view its full of complete and utter bull about the role of women in history... Take Adam and Eve for example, Eve took the apple from the snake, sure, but snakes are phallic symbols and maybe she was horny, who knows for sure? But Adam, on the other hand, didn't have to take the apple... So why did he? We may never know... As for pets having souls, thats another load of hooey (as well as a bone of contention I have with most organized religions)... I think that pets not only have souls and go to heaven tehy become intergral parts of a family... And lastly, there's the whole homosexual issue.... Every organized religion I've ever seen has not wanted, not allowed or not advocated gay marriages or gay issues.... Which is just irritating, vexing and downright upsetting to me.... Seeing as to how one of my best friends is gay and I've debated the issue of religion with him for years... And I'm starting to agree with him, no religion wants gays involved with it... And they don't realize what they're missing out on..... Gay men are the world's greatest shopping buddies/confidante as well as not being back stabbing bitches (most of them) than a lot of girls I know (but not all)... Anyway thats about it for now, unless I wanted to write about a dream I had about a friend of mine's brother's ex roommate... Nah... Laters....

So its been a rather interesting weekend to say the least... I've had more alcohol in the last 4 days than I have in the past 4 monthes... Ok, so that might be a slight exaggeration, but not by much... Thursday night, Friday night and last night I've had margeritas out the who-ha along with about half a bottle of champagne... I pulled my second all nighter in the last 2 weeks, whereas, I haven't done that in freakin' forever... Amazingly enough, almost the exact same people kept me company... Well at least 2 of the same people.... Peaches wound up hanging out with Amanda and I and we stayed up till like 8 this morning... That was tons of fun... hehehe... :) Once again like all we did was watch movies and flirt, but that was fun too... Flirting always is.... :) Oh, and by the way he hates being called Peaches, he glares at us every time we call him that... Quite funny really... I would say we should hang out with him more often, but alas, everytime we do we stay up all freakin' night... Not a bad thing, usually, but today I've been trying to do homework and not getting alot accomplished... Speaking of which I should probably get back to since I have at least 8 pages to type up and 42 tests/activities left to find before 2morrow... Lucky me, huh? I was going to get started on all this stuff yesterday but I got the world's next to worst (Monday being the worst) migraine... Not conducive to doing homework or reading of any sort really... :0) Besides that only one of my teams (football) didn't get their butts kicked.... Rice University, who'da thunk it? Meanwhile, U of H, the Texans, Baylor, and TCU all got whomped on.... While Texas Tech was only completely and totally abducted by aliens, subjected to anal probes and sent back as what seemed to be pod people.... I have never been to dissappointed and impressed by the other team so much as I was in this game... I found there is a reason that OU is #1 in the rankings... They're good... Damn good... Anywho, hi ho hi ho its back to homework I go!!

Ok, lucky for me I'm Irish German and don't get drunk easily... Though with the frequency with which I drink, I'm surprised, really I am. For example, i had a little bit of margerita, 2 half glasses of champagne, a half glass of mimosa (half champagne/half orange juice) and then a full glass of mimosa.... Hence the reason I am so lethargic and nice and toasty warm.... Though my toes STILL aren't warm.... They never are as most everyone who knows me realizes.... :0) Runs in my family, just like bossiness... I'm not drinking for any other reason but to celebrate my singlehood.... Tried something, failed at it.... Moving on.... Though for a while I felt as though I was in junior high with all the he said she said he said that you said gossip I heard... But you know what? That doesn't bug me now... I'm too darn happy to give a flying flip in hell... Wheeeeeee...... Laters....

I go home in less than a week.... Tuesday I leave here and go home, and Wednesday morning I wake up in my own bed... As comfy as my bed at school is its too small... For sleeping alone or with someone, or doing anything else in it for that matter....
Needless to say it'll be nice to sleep in my own bed again... Even though no one will be there to share it, except my sisters, and they don't really count cause you've always done that.... (no not that, sleep, get your minds out of the gutter.) Speaking of my sisters, theres a bit of drama there.... My youngest sister went with her boyfriend to Dallas and she didn't get to spend a lot of time with our other sister, who lives in Ft. Worth, which is why I thought Lauren (in Ft. Worth) was upset with Lindsay (the one who went to Dallas).... Turns out its only because Mike (the boyfriend) who at 28 is 8 years older than Lindsay (whose 20)... And thats the only reason.... I think Lauren forgets that our father was 19 almost 20 years older than our mother, either that or it effected her differently than me (I'd date Mel Gibson if he was single and I had a shot).... Either way she's a bit narrow minded about it.... Says guys that much older are scum.... Ok, La, if you say so..... Speaking of having a shot with guys you're (I'm) attracted to... I've realized something... I'm a little sister to some, sure, and one of the guys most of the time, but I am still a girl and a tease to boot... But no that's not what I realized, though that is a pertinent fact, I realized that in order to have a shot with a guy you've got to see him on an almost daily basis, which usually is no problem, (and I knew b4 but realized yet again - sort of blond of me I know) but with my current crush.... I only see him once every couple of weeks, so probably nothing will ever come of it, but hey its nice to have a crush.... And I realize too that just reading these blogs makes it look like I'm boy crazy (which I am) but also that it makes it look as though I live my life around them which I most definitely DO NOT.... Anyway its off to do yet more homework..... :0) Laters.
PS The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is on tonight, whoo hoo!!!!! Go me!!!!!!!!!!

A friend of mine told me I'm the sort of person who, when I find something I really like, whether it's a guy or a musical group or a movie or whatever, I pour an awful lot of energy into it. He then went on to say that it's not necessarily bad, but I tend to get bored with something or someone real fast because my attraction to it is so intense... I've thought about that alot and things I've done in that and its true.... I'm not obsessive but when I'm into something or someone, I go overboard and I can't figure out how to stop or slow down.... Kind of like going on a roller coaster, then bungee jumping, and sky diving one right after the other, so you get the adrenaline high of one, don't have time to recover and then get more and more adrenaline till it feels like your going to explode.... You know? Its not a necessarily bad its just not a good way to conduct relationships... :0) Like I get a new CD or movie and I can't take it out of the VCR or CD player, whatever the case may be, till I get sick of it and then I rarely listen to or watch it later. That doesn't work with men... They won't sit around till you(me) make up your(my) mind and wait for you (me) to make up your(my) mind when you(I) want them... Its not fair and its not nice, to run hot and cold like that.... But I'll figure it out eventually, I always do... In other news, I went to the playground down the street today for an assignment I had to do and stayed there for a bit longer just spending time with myself, which I haven't done in a while.... No music, no TV, no distractions of any sort.... It was nice, I got some things taken care of.... Found my center, and cleaned the slate, so to speak.... I even had a moment!!! I found out some stuff about myself, I hadn't realized... Things about my expectations, the obsession thing, and my goals.... I left the park at about 3, smiling and feeling so much more refreshed.... Anyway, thats about it for today... Laters....

I talked to my mom last night and as it turns out we're both pissed at our bank... They said they put the money in my account in September but I never saw it... I've been looking for my September statement and I haven't found it yet, but when I do... Oh, boy are they gonna get it!!! And if I'm wrong, though Lord knows if I am it'll be a first for a Fritz or Daley, then I'll deal with that too... Today though I had a massive migraine so not much got done.... I went to my 10 oclcok class and came home for lunch and about 1 or so my entire head started pounding... It's only been in the last hour or so I've started feeling normal again... There for a while it was so bad my vision was blurred and I was queasy... Also in my 10 oclcok class I found out something that made me feel small and vindictive... One of the people I'm not very fond of, who thinks he can sing and play guitar but can't carry a tune in a bucket.... Well I found out that he is lucky to even be alive.... A girl I know and I were discussing this and she's like yeah back when he was 13 he had a brain tumor/cancer and he has a scar across the back of his head from where they did surgery.... He was so sick from chemo and radiation he could barely walk and had to have assistance to get from class to class.... All I could say was, Oh.... And feel abot a millimeter tall.... Made me think about Link and when he transferred into SBMS back in like 7th grade and how supportative everyone was of him... He was bald and was allowed to wear a cap and bandanna and he was the only one in school allowed to do that... He made it through and was (and is as far as I know) one heck of a sweet guy.... He was a cheerleader our senior year, so I think he made a pretty full recovery.... :0) But anyway other less weighty issues I've thought of... Let's see, I decided today that it sucks to loose relationships with the families of exes (whatever sort fo ex they may be).... One of my ex friends has the world's greatest parents and since I don't speak to him, I don't speak to them.... Another instance, my sister's ex boyfriend.... He was like a little brother and his mother and I were like 2 peas in a pod... But since they broke up in June, I haven't spoken to her.... There are a few others I can think of but those are the 2 that are most recent and that I can think of off the top of my head... Thats it 4 nowski... Laters....

Ok so some conclusions that I've come to this weekend....

1. I'm not mean, just very much a tease... ;0)

2. I am in fact a tease....

3. I like to flirt (doh)

4. My taste in men is questionable....

What happened to make me draw these conclusions?
Lets see, my friend Chuck came into town and we hung out and stuff... Friday night me, Heather, Chuck and James went to the coffee house and I flirted with Dillon... Then O'Neal showed up and Heather and I were talked into going to see Matrix Revolutions (Or whatever new Matrix movie it was that came out this week) with Adam and Andrea... Then we all (except Andrea cuz I think shes scared of us) went back to our house where Amanda joined our happy little group... There was a bit of drama when Chuck thought he lost his wallet, turns out it was in James' car... That was sort of funny in a its not really funny, but it is cause I had the giggles sort of way... Anyway we all wound up watching the end of the 2nd Harry Potter, the 2nd Matrix movie and Jay and Silent Bob Strike back.... James, Adam, and Heather all left and/or went to sleep.... Chuck, Amanda, O'Neal and I all stayed up to 6 am, though I think I was the only one who didn't cat nap. Sure I laid down but I was fully awake and mostly coherent. Had fun playing with O'Neal.... He should hang out with us more often... Actually Heather and I discussed this later and thought that maybe we should have some sort of group get together once every couple of weeks, since we hardly see out little group of friends anymore.... And we rarely if ever have company over, and hardly ever have guys over.... It makes me very very sad as I LOVE guys.... There's a whole lotta estrogen around this house, too much at times I think.... Anyway where was I? Oh, yeah, playing with O'Neal.... So we finally did it... Went home or to bed that is, though not together..... :0) So Saturday (amazingly enough I woke up at noon!) Chuck, Heather and I went to visit Clif then went to Walmart.... Then we came home ate and went to Paul and Brandy's.... Eventually Adam and James came over, we drank, talked, and pretty much watched Paul play a video game... Pretty much a fun time....Today Chuck went home and I slept late and finally checked my email for the first time since Friday and now here I am about to do homework! Lucky me huh?

Well, I heard something really disturbing yesterday and I woke up to hearing on the news this morning, and again at lunch... And I'm sure if I looked at the local paper I'd see it there too.... A little girl who was only 10 (10!!!!!) was killed in a fire that destroyed her house. Her mother and father escaped with her 2 younger sisters. That's not the worst part of it... The fact that when firefighters when in they found the girl, Molly, CHAINED TO HER BED!!!! It makes me sick to hear about shit like this.... A friend of mine first told me about it in class yesterday and I almost burst into tears... I half expect something like this in Houston, or Dallas, bigger cities you know? Lots of crime, lots more sickos... But for it to happen in Clarksville, a town of only about 7 thousand, supported mainly by Tyson, Walmart and the college, it just seems.... There isn't really a word for what it is.... Its just wrong, sickening.... And a plethora of other adjectives besides....
I suppose that when I'm up here, I forget about things like traffic and crime and all the other disadvantages of a bigger city.... Anyway I'm going to go work with Connie, todays my last day with her.... I just want to go up to her and give her a huge hug... You know, reaffirm that life isn't horrid.... Laters.

Well there are at least 4 things I can think of I wanted to talk about losing touch with friends, Custer's last stand, Cross Canadian Ragweed, and immature attitudes towards attractive members of the opposite sex. First of all losing touch with friends... I have come to realize recently that I've lost touch for whatever reason with a lot of really good friends. A couple from high school, and some from my first year of college and relationships that developed while I was working and other friendships that I've had at U of O.... For instance, I'll hear from a friend of a friend of the sibling of a friend or one of my siblings about whats new with an old friend... And that sorta sucks. I know long distance relationships of any sort are hard to keep up, but I think this is verging on ridiculous.... But that could be just me... This has also got me thinking more about high school, and I don't know why when that part of my life is over and I've moved on and let go of whatever happened there.... I guess its just I've been watching too many talk shows that talk about reuniting people with their high school crushes and I think for just a minute or so What if I called about one of my old crushes? What could happen? (or not happen as the case may be.) But then reality slams back into me and I realize how stupid that sounds and how much I'd have to be clinging to the past in order to do that, and my life is so much different now, better (so much so) than it was in high school, so why can I not quit thinking about it here lately? Maybe my sister's graduation from TCU sort of triggered it... And the fact that 7 years after I graduated high school I'm finally graduating college... Sure I took a year off and only like a semester's worth of hours trasferred up here from LMC, but still that fact that all said and done its taken me 6 years to get through school combined with the fact my degree is going to say general studies makes me feel ashamed of myself... Like I've screwed up my college career.... When I know a lot of it was remedial classes and some of it was repeating a couple of classes, that makes me think I'm graduating dammit and that makes me proud of myself... You know? I mean only about half of my graduating class that started college wound up at HCC and about a quarter of those didn't finish at all.... That makes me feel better... Ok onward and upward and off my soap box.... Next thing on ye old agenda, Cross Canadian Ragweed... I saw a CCR decal on the back of a white blazer.... Not so unusual I know, but on the back of a white blazer with Arkansas plates in the middle of northwest Arkansas of all places... That made my afternoon... :0) Next, Custer's last stand...Was anyone else uunaware that he was considered a hero? I grew up thinking he was the bad guy, but I saw this thing on the Discovery channel this morning that was debating on whether or not he was a hero or whether he was outgunned, outmanned and outmanuevered.... The people doing the program decided on the latter and I was hooked on it for an hour....Luckily I had nothing else planned... Lastly, immature attitudes.... I ran into a guy I dig at Walmart tonight and I couldn't think of a thing to say to him, I was completely tongue-tied it was so horrid! I got the freakin' head nod, you know the one 'hey I see you, whats up?' head nod.... Worse still I was on the phone with someone and he was wondering what was going on... Yeah, that was hard to explain... Anyway thats it for now.... Laters.

I started the Indiana Jones trilogy today... A friend of mine told me something about the Temple of Doom (that Dan Akroyd had a cameo) and I wasn't sure whether to believe him or not... So I've watched the majority of the Temple of Doom and sure enough there he is right in the beginning as the British guy at the airport just like Adam said.... I apoligize for doubting you... :0) I'm also preregistered for next semester, I've signed up for 16 hours even though I only need 10 to graduate... I've also decided I dislike Amazon.com, I was supposed to get some books I ordered at the beginning of last week and I was supposed to get them on Friday, but its Monday and they're still not here... Argh... At least there's only 2 weeks until I get to go home... :0) Whoo hoo, go me! Other stuff: Jack Ingram's new CD comes out Tuesday though I'm probably going to wait till my birthday to get it... Honeybrowne's new CD comes out at the end of the month, thats also going to be a birthday present. I found out Bleu Edmondson is going to be at the Sidecar Pub the night before I leave Houston to come back up here... I'm probably going to go its just I'll have to leave early, cause that place is all the way out off 290.... And I have to drive 10 hours the next day... Also since I started thinking about me being nice vs. me joking too much/teasing too much, and I've decided that I'm sticking with that old adage, "If you can't say something nice don't say anything...." Though I have to admit I even have certain expressions that people can read easily that tease almost better than if I had verbalized it... So yeah, I probably need to work on that as well... Anyway I have to go do some more homework, so I'll write again laters....

So this weekend, I have been called mean more times than I can count. Now I don't know if its just me being overly sensitive or a fact. Though if it is fact, that just scares the everloving shite out of me since I've always been the 'nice' girl.... Even when I was working retail and for the last few monthes I couldn't stand it, and got a little cynical, even then I was STILL a 'nice' girl. So have my jokes suddenly gotten more abrasive or what, but I think I need to work on being more sensitive overall. I've always needed to work on that, but I'm getting better at it I think... An early New Year's resolution if you will. I heard a good thing this weekend too, if you're upset, sad, angry whatever, just write it down and let it go. Sort of like a catharsis, ya know? I think thats a good way to think of this blog thingy... In other news, I think I've decided that this will be my way of updating my friends on what's going on in my life, how I feel that sort of thing.... Course I need to email all the ones that I can email and all that good stuff, but I'll get that done... Just like the article review thats due tommorrow by 4, that I haven't written, but have found an article for... Hmmm, lets see what else.... I've been feeling very festive lately, Christmasy even.... I've been listening to Christmas carols, watched a Christmas movie and found myself on the way to a test on Friday humming Christmasy music.... But then I've sort of been ready for Christmas since like June or July... Go me, huh? The countdown to Christmas for those wondering is 46 days... 27 days until I turn 24 (December 6th for those planning on getting me something), 18 till Thanksgiving, and 16 days until I go home for Turkey Day... And yes I counted twice just to make sure.... Also turns out I nixed 2 weeks of school without realizing it when I was planning out the rest of the semester.... I thought Thanksgiving was week after next and there was another between Thanksgiving and Christmas break... I'm only a little crazy I swear! :0) Anyway I'm off to bed, would anyone care to join me? ;0) Laters!

Okay I have nothing original to say today, so here are a bunch of quotes.....

"Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and
taste good with ketchup."

"...I was going to tell you, but I never had the courage...I always
dreamed of the moment though. I'd take you aside so we could be alone, hold your hands in mine, and we'd stare deep into each other's eyes... Then I'd tell
you how i felt; that I'm in love with you... We'd move closer
together...Then we'd kiss... You'd break the silence by saying "I love you too"... Then we'd kiss again...But, it was only a dream...Then we said good bye, it was over just like that... It wasn't meant to end this way..."

"The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four Americans are
suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best
friends. If they're okay, then it's you."
Rita Mae Brown.

"Time is not a factor in love because love is timeless..."

"To trust is to unshield your heart and place a dagger in the hand of
another"- Shediandi

"Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not change,
The courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those I had to kill because they pissed me off."

"A girl and a guy can be just friends, but at one point or another
they will fall for each other. Maybe temporarily, maybe at the wrong time, maybe too late, or maybe forever..."

"Love is...Running into his arms, Colliding with his heart, And
Exploding into his soul."

"Don't play leapfrog w/ unicorns..."

"It hurts to love and not be loved - It hurts more to love and not be
able to tell..." (the story of my life)

More quotes...

"How can you be friends with someone if everytime you look at them, it
Makes you want them even more?"

"Life is like the mail...sometimes you just don't get it."

"You don't know how hard it is to get over you when every time I see
you my heart begins to smile."
(how true is this, for at least one guy I know...)

"Sometimes reality doesn't live up to my dreams."

And lastly one that sums up my entire high school career...

"Everyday before school I try and look my best, but then I come to
school and see all the rest,they are beautiful and popular,the exact opposite of me,but I hope that you can love me for what I can be."

Thats it for today.... Laters....

Okay, so much for saying I was going to do this every day... It dawns on me I just don't have that sort of time, unless I cut out a bit more sleep or don't eat, or something equally stupid... At least I try to get it done every day and its the thought that counts right? Besides, what if nothing happens to me one day, or I have nothing interesting to say? Like that could happen I know... But I'm only saying what if, not actually saying it happens... Even my dreams are interesting, and not always in a sexual content, to the surprise of many I know... One odd dream I had the other night was that I was in a plane crash and I was in denial that the plane was actually crashing... That was a bit strange to say the least.... Oh, by the way I told mom about dropping that math class and she was very matter of fact, if a little dissappointed about it, but understanding at the same time... Very cool of her I think... Let's see what else? A few new crushes... Though one or 2 are reruns of the same old thing... Its vicious cycle, but I've seen them more in the last week than I have in the past 2 monthes, and physically and personality wise they're both very much my type... Both from Texas... As are all my new crushes... One old crush that has sorta been revived is a guy I haven't seen in forever by a dream I had about him a couple of weeks ago, how insane is that? Hmm let's see what else? I spent about an hour scanning pictures into my computer and putting them into my Yahoo briefcase picture folder thingy... I ordered some stuff off of Amazon.com, waiting for it to.. uh.... get here... Yeah, get here thats it... :0) My exroomie Mel is in town for the weekend and we're just hanging out and stuff, we just got back from the coffeehouse and we're about to watch 40 days and 40 nights for the umpteenth time (at least on my part, seeing as to how I OWN the darn thing...). Thats about it for now... Laters...

Well, I finally did it.... I dropped my stupid, unneeded math class... I'm down to 12 hours from 15, but it doesn't effect my graduating in May... Dumb thing didn't even count toward anything!!! Except my GPA and more hours towards graduation.... I only need like 7 hours overall and 10 upper level hours to graduate so fuck it... Speaking of fuck... (Sorry just finished reading Scott Copelands thoughts so I'm in a bit of a cursing mood...) I can't fucking believe I was having sex dreams about the professor.... I mean he has to be mid 40s, balding, and bookish, thats just sort of disturbing. Oh, and also disturbing is the fact I can't quit thinking of all the ways I'd like to kill the dumbass muthafucka old ass German who made me ashamed to BE German for 2 seconds (then I got my Irish up :0) ) that thought he was God's gift to women, human and animal alike (ew)... He was almost 50, hadn't taken a shower since Lord only knows when, scraggly hair and beard, beer gut and HE COULDN'T HOLD HIS LIQUIOR!!!! He had like two beers and he was gone... I mean, Gawd I don't drink that often and I have a far superior alcohol tolerance... Hell, a freshman on orientation weekend has a better alcohol tolerance than he did! Anyway enough about that dirty old man... Stupid ass perv tried to follow me to my room after I laughed at his asinine remark about following me to bed... Good thing I'm a paranoid city girl and I'd locked the door, he tried to jiggle the handle and THEN tapped on the door... I was on the phone with a friend of mine and I was trying not to kick his ass out of MY house, only the fact that he had an adorable Rott puppy saved his wrotten hide.... ANYWAY thats really all on him.... Speaking of puppies... Mine would have been 15 today if she was still alive... That'd be one old lady, at least in dog years.... People age, she'd be getting her driving permit... hehehe, an apricot toy poodle behind the wheel, how hilarious is that? :0) Let's see what else? Oh, yeah my New Year's plans have been firmed up a little more (at least more than they were) and I'll be at the Firehouse watching Bleu Edmondson (sigh), Stoney Larue, and Wade Bowen & West 84, drinking champagne... feeling no pain till early morning... Dining and dancing with every pretty boy (even though they're trouble) I can find...... I just got an email my test at 10 in the morning is canceled, which is a good thing cuz I'd actually forgotten I'd even HAD a test.... Not a good thing I know... At least now I can go get the oil changed on my 4runner and flirt with the cute boys at the Castro place... :0) Anyway I'm off to bed cuz for some reason I can't stay up past 1 anymore... How horrible is that? :0) Neway night and I'll talk more smack about people laters...... :0)

Wow its been a while since I've done this... A week and a half to be precise... Gracious, all the things that have happened this week! Or should I things that HAVEN'T occurred this week? Well lets see the day after my last post (Thursday) I went home to Houston.... Friday and Saturday, shopped, Sunday came back to Clarksvegas after a brief stop at my local Krispy Kreme shop for a dozen to go.... (Gawd those are so my weakness! And oh so bad for my hips and tummy...) I had class all week... 2 tests, one on Tuesday and one Friday... Halloween was fun, I went as a pirate chick, sword and all.... Amanda and I went to the dance for a bit, there were at least 4 other pirate chicks, and one pirate, none of which had a sweet sword like me... We then proceeded to Shanghai my other friend Matt into going to Dodge's and Walmart with us.. You know out of the 5 or 6 Matts I've ever met, he's the only one that's not trouble with a capital T-R-O-U-B-L-E.... And I've finally learned my lesson, NO MORE MATTS!!! Alas I had to do it the hard way and date 2, but learn I have... NEway, today I relaxed, slept late, went to Russellville to go to Hastings came back and went to see Brother Bear... You know going to a movie on a date night when your single by yourself is rather liberating... No arguing about who pays, no awkward conversation, and trying to slip away from grabby hands.... Course that last one is only if you dont like them... :0) Oh, one thing I did want to mention, I had a dream about a guy the other night (surprise surprise I know) one whom I've known most of my life and had a crush on on and off all through it... At one point in time I thought I was in love with him... I haven't seen him in a couple of years, since the last time I went to see him play at Fitz's I think, but every now and then I'll hear a little something through my sister or my best friend.... Yeah anyway had a dream about him, nothing sexual, more comforting than anything else, though I only remember scraps and pieces of it.... This got me to thinking, not obsessing, just thinking... I used to think he was the perfect man and there was just a sense of rightness there, though that was probably one sided just like my thinking I loved him.... What a silly teenager I was... But then again aren't they all? :0) But there are still certain characteristics I look for in people overall and in potential boyfriends that belong to him, though not solely... Why did he have to go around and start kissing boys in clubs? Out of all the people in our senior class I never thought he'd be one of the ones to come out of the closet... Though, there were a few others that have since that I sorta always thought might be... At least 2 I know of for sure... NEway enuff about high school it wasn't great, college is all right, and real life should get even better.... hehehe... Laters...
