A Conversation with My Mother

This is how crazy she is, folks: Mom: So the ceiling in the kitchen is falling down because there's always water all over the bathroom floor upstairs, and the light in the living room fell and crashed the other day. I think that Satan is here. Me: Yeah that or the house was built badly. Mom: It could be that too I guess, but I keep praying for Satan to leave me alone just in case. I was at grandma's the other day and her entire shelf fell in her bathroom, plus all the weird dreams I've been having. Me: Maybe you just have a ghost following you around. Maybe it's grandpa trying to get your attention. Mom: (hahaha) mmhmm. Well I know you don't take me seriously honey but you really should because these medical problems you're having could be a sign of dark forces. You better pray. Maybe I'll have my group pray for you. Me: Yes my tonsils are acting up because of THE DEVIL. It's not that you and dad both had to have yours out and it's gene

I heart garlic

I have had crazy garlic cravings lately. It's pretty much all Mike's fault, because we got soft pretzels at the mall yesterday and he just HAD to give me a bite of his garlic pretzel, which I immediately thought was the best thing in the world. So after that I've been wanting garlic ever since. Today for lunch I got a buffalo chicken panini, with garlic bread on the side. I went to Marketplace today and wanted a garlic pretzel so bad, but got scared away from Auntie Ann's by the greasy foreign guy selling hand cream in the center aisle who kept trying to touch me. Tonight for dinner I made rotini with butter, cheese, and garlic. I'm not sure what important nutrient I'm lacking that garlic will fulfill for me, but that's usually how my cravings work, so it's keeping me healthy somehow to keep eating it. Speaking of keeping me healthy, I have joined the U of R pool. It's 16$ a month for an Olympic sized pool that hardly ever gets used. I think t

Love and Marriage

Well these past few weeks have been very busy, and I'll stay pretty damn busy til the end of August. That's how summer usually goes though, and why it seems so short :( Last friday I traveled down to Letchworth State Park with Katie to meet up with Maura and Shannon for Maura's wedding. It was beautiful down there, and we had a good time in the lodge the night before the wedding alternately drinking and trying to drink. See apparently 4 girls can't open Champaigne by themselves (see pictures). After the Champaigne was FINALLY opened we drank and watched tv and had fun, but not too much fun because we had to wake up at 7 am to get ready for the hairdresser at 8 am at the Glen Iris. I got some very pretty pictures of Maura getting ready... and Katie has a picture of the hairdresser doing my hair. I really liked how my hair turned out. This is probably the best picture showing my hair, although you can also see up my nose... We stayed in an upstairs living room type ar

A Small Promotion

So there's this band from my hometown, we went to high school at the same time as them (different schools) and they've always been popular, even in little ole Geneva before they got bigger. Well I've still been following them, via myspace, and they seem poised to blow up soon. They toured with Fallout Boy for awhile, they're on the Warped Tour, and they just released a new album which has some kick ass songs on it. This band is Gym Class Heroes. Every Genevan has heard of them, and my friends know the guys even better than I do (I mostly just ran into them at bars and listened while Travis talked with my friends) They were home a few months ago though, and I told them that I loved their new stuff at that time. Anyway, Travis has done this song with Cobra Starship for what's going to be the biggest blockbuster of the summer, Snakes on a Plane, and it's a REALLY FUCKING GREAT song. Seriously I heard it twice and I'm hooked. So now you must all listen too....

The Office Showdown Debate

Well....it's not so much of a debate since I have a definite preference, but whatever. So I just finished watched all of the British version of "The Office." It was very funny, and similar to the American version only in the very first episode. All episodes thereafter are completely different. In both there are the weird, trying to be funny but aren't really funny bosses who keep fucking up and think everyone loves them, and the Jim and Pam/Tim and Dawn characters are similar as well. But the things they do on the shows, the entire plotline, their personalities, are much different. That being said, here's a bit more.... What I like about the British Office: --they can talk about sex freely, because it isn't our run-by-religion society --it came first and is therefore automatically cool for thinking up the concept --they say funny words and use funny accents What I don't like about the British Office: --Ricky Gervais' character, David Brent, is almo

Quickies from my Life

No I'm not talking about flings. I haven't updated much in the past....while....so here's just a few things I've been up to in order of how much time they've taken up: -work -hanging out with Mike -watching tv, specifically Family Guy, The British Office (almost time for my update on that) , and It's Always Sunny in Philidelphia (which is growing on me slowly). -playing video games. I've finished Princess Peach and am now on to New Super Mario Brothers for DS, and I'm soooo close to being done with Psychonauts for PS2. -I got to see random Geneva people last week at "Cruisin Night" which was fun and drama filled like Geneva always is -I met Mike's family last week as well, they are awesome and I loved hanging out with them. My family also met Mike's family (well my mom and Keith did) and they got along with each other as well. -I got to hang out with Catharine and Barb the other night who I havent seen since Xmas. -I saw Mike in his n
