Not Your Average Jane

That second one I especially like just for its inspiration factor.

So yesterday morning and Tueday morning I woke up to Pat Green, pretty sweet deal... I was wondering how that could be and when I woke up this morning I hear that its a university run radio station and from 6 to noon it only plays Americana. Go U of O! :0) COurse the fact most of the kids here if they're not from Central America or Arkansas are from Texas (mostly Dallas) so I really shouldn't be surprised... Yet, I am.... :0)
So night b4 last Amanda and I were watching Free Willy 2 (it was the only thing on TV, so sue me!) and towards the end we were discussing how it seemed like Willy never got hurt, regardless of what he did... This started a discussion about Superman and how he never got hurt. So I bust out with the Super Willy and we started giggling like mad women.... Kelpt that up for the rest of the movie... Earlier that day I'd been talking to a friend of mine about a professor (whose been wheel chair bound since college due to polio) and we kept looking around, since we were about 200 yards away from her office, and JC (also in a wheelchair) said I hope Dr. ____ doesn't walk in. He caught himself and we looked at each other and bust a gut... So yeah Tuesday was a good day for laughs... :0)
Right as I went to bed last night I started thinking... There are companies that make radios that only play soothing sounds that help you sleep and I was wondering if they made one that had 'Sounds of the City'.... I doubt it seriously, but its weird not being in a big city sometimes, especially since mom moved so close to downtown and I hear them more ofter than usual... Oh, well, I'll live.... Just going to have to fall asleep with the TV on low volume as usual.... Thats about it for this afternoon... I'm off either to Walmart, nap, or do laundry.... Lucky me.... Laters.
