"My thighs are sweating." ~Allie
Ah, how do I explain Allie? Well, let's see......she talks so loudly during the previews in a movie theater, you're afraid she may not shut up for the feature, which is totally embarrassing.....Well, not really, but I like making her think that. hehe. Let me explain further....At FHE tonight Allie talked about, and I quote, "riding Barney" at Chucky Cheese. Immediately I get this mental image of Allie getting a piggy-back ride from a giant purple dinosaur on Prozac, but she was really referring to a kiddy ride at the restaurant where her nephews were eating. Next, she proceeds to grab the purse on her shoulder and puts it up to her ear, giving no explanation as to why she is doing so. She does this twice, and then she reveals her cell phone which she thought might be ringing. Next, she pulls a Michael Jackson-crotch-grabbing move and says "My thighs are sweating," which just happens to be the same phrase she said to me randomly when we were at a baseball game with Emily a couple of weeks ago. I know that none of these little tid-bits can fully explain the experience of being around Allie, but it is, at least, a small taste of her wonderfully unpredictable personality. Yesth, she is truly an original, and I'm verra verra happy we're friends. Maybe one day, if you're lucky, you too will get to hangout with Allie for a long extended period of time and laugh at her randomness.

haha this blog was great! you described her so so well...my first memory of allie was her rubbing her thumb across my eyebrows saying "you have wonderfully pucked brows". I didnt even know her..and i thought to myself..wow..this girl rocks!
wasnt silence of the lambs awesome?! ..that guy was a total weirdo. haah. and..what the hell does quiwankdinal;kdfjal whatever mean? is that some kind of teacher language? haha you make me laugh.
i have to say...Allie is quite wonderful. i think perhaps the best story she ever told me was when she came back from her cali. it was a horrible plane trip involving the plane's toilet seat, a nasty man, a little boy, over-flowing toilets, and small bladders. it was the kind of story you write about in your journal even though it didnt happen to you. hee hee
