The Randomness That Is Allie

"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.

This is Allie AKA "The Random One"

NASCAR or Bust...Think I'll Bust.

So, I'm in San Antonio right now with the parents at my sister's house, and it's been really nice so far. (My nephews are so weird; they crack me up!) Anyhoo, on the way down here I saw about 50 million RVs and SUVs on I-35 with stuff like "NASCAR or Bust!!" written on the windows and really stupid crap like "#4 is my hero!" Gag! Please tell me the American public has not fallen victim to the white-trash sport that is NASCAR! I'm guessing that there was some huge race in Dallas this past Sunday or something, and everybody was going home. Sigh. It makes me very sad for the future of our country. I'm going to read a book now and try to improve myself. :S

It's a Thin Line Between Love and Hate

I have this love/hate relationship with TV. There are times when I just love to watch it--for example, when Alias or one of the 5 million CSIs are on--BUT there are other times when I wish I had a 12 gauge shot gun to silence it FOR-EV-ER. I've been cooped up in my house for about three days straight, and I'm starting to get a little batty. I tried a trip to Target today to just get out of the house, and it was ok, but I need something bigger. I'm getting frickin' restless! I'm starting to search for my imaginary 12 gauge to blow my TV away, and I have this sudden urge to run down the street as fast as I can screaming at the top of my lungs. Good thing that I'm finally starting to feel better again--yes, I've been sick--AGAIN. I think if I get sick one more time, I'm going to take my imaginary 12 gauge and put it in my mouth. *sigh* So, in conclusion, Amber, if you don't come to Dallas this weekend, I may do some serious imaginary damage to my self.
:( Please.......help me (*in a whimpering, British orphan voice*)

Damn girl, why you gots to be so fine?

The Plauge Returns

I'm finally done with my student teaching! Yeah for me! BUT right in the middle of my last week of glory, I re-contracted the plauge. sigh. It sucks. How is it possible that the human body is able to produce so much frickin' snot? I seriously think some of my gray matter is gone. Ok, maybe I shared too much information......ANYway, now I am only left with kleen-x burn under my nose--gosh I hate kleen-x burn! But it's not anything a little mentholatum won't heal.

So, aside from the plauge, and stressing out about getting everything squared away for the upcoming job search, I found myself contemplating what makes me happy. And here it is, what makes me happy:

Making CD labels
Loading pictures onto my computer
Buying $1 items that are cool
A really pretty day outside
Driving with the music insanely loud
Sleeping
NOT being sick
Blue and green
A clean car (specifically my car)
Laughing at really stupid stuff
Stapling papers together (it gives me a sense of accomplishment)
Pictures of frogs in pink tutus and tiaras..............and............yeah, that's it.

Hum, I'm a little weird and boring. I'm sorry y'all even know me and feel obligated to read all of my stupid crap.
