Today it is Friday NO SINGING

I just thought y'all should hear about my day. It was normal for me, which means it was mostly likely far from normal for anyone else.

Bex and I went to Starbucks. I had a free thing I needed to use (not that anyone ever needs a real reason for going to Starbucks). We realized we hadn't gone to Starbucks together since last semester and didn't know which cupholder should have which drink in Trudy. No one else may see this as a problem because most people will remember where they put their drinks. Not us. They have to be in the same cupholders every time because otherwise I will grab the one where mine should be and drink it while I'm driving. I don't look down; I just grab it and trust that it's there (insert your choice of dirty joke here). Also, I don't like change. We realized we didn't remember whose coffee went in front and whose went in back! There are only two cupholders in the front of the car and we managed to forget how to do it right! Strugglebus!

We figured it out once I grabbed the coffee while driving while not thinking about it. We were right. Whew.

Then I played the stacking things game while everyone else was at their 1pm class. I really should play the stacking things game alone because I can't play it quietly. I have to gasp and scream and swear at it. I really really can't stop and it's ridiculous because the game is SO STUPID and SO STRESSFUL AND I LOVE IT. All you do is stack shapes and have them hold for 10 seconds. But the game picks the size and order of the shapes and each level gets harder and sometimes you have to precariously stack rectangles on CIRCLES and then if any of the circles are off center then you're basically screwed because your whole freaking tower starts slowly moving and rolling on the stupid circles and then it all falls down and you have to yell DOUCHECANOE or BALLSANDWIENERS (Brian) or NO!NO!NONONONONOO! or FWEEZE, SYKKO (throwback to baby Nitty). Also the shapes have faces and when things start to tilt their happy faces turn into terrified faces and their mouths open like they're silently screaming as they fall to their untimely deaths. And they make noise when you set them down. The triangles are especially cute. This game is on addicttinggames if anyone wants to lose their sanity.

Then we played wallyball (walleyball?) with Kristen and Sam. Yay! Then Bex ran into the wall and hurt her previously-wonky shoulder. Un-yay! But then Kristen had a beautiful set right where I needed it and I took a full approach and hit the piss out the the ball! Yay! Then it hit the back wall and was out! Un-yay! But it was worth it. Except for the injury. But there's an app for that.

That app is Advil.

Then Bex and I had a Celine Dion listening party. In the shower. She brought her battery-operated iPod speakers into the bathroom and we listened to My Heart Will Go On. Sadly, no one came into the bathroom. Or maybe they heard the song and decided they could just hold it. Either way, it was totally awesome.

Then me, Bex, Sam, Yashka, and Divya went to the MALL to go SHOPPING because Yashka needed a dress for a dance tomorrow. She ended up with 2 shirts and no dress. I ended up with no new shoes because I have self-control, mother. We went to the smoothie place and I had flashbacks to Randhurst and it made me sad (Trixie).

Then we went to see the Upright Citizens Brigade! It was hi-freaking-larious. I heart improv. Then we walked back in the SNOW and it was cold and not fun. But then we convinced Yashu to try on her outfit for tomorrow and model it and I told her I wanted to look at her butt and she didn't want me to (as usual) and Bex is wearing my silver heels because they're AWESOME and we had an earring party. The end.

Out-of-Context Quotes:

"Yashu has a problem."
"Which one?"

"He looks like the lovechild of Andy from Parks and the Sauce Boss!"

Assume? Azzume. Azzume. NO, assume!

How was work? Was the dog farting?

Sad Christmas (Break is Over)

I woke up and went to an 8:30am class this morning. That was not fun.

Christmas Break Summary (divided into three equal pieces)

Week 1:
- Tutored a kid at my old grade school Monday-Thursday in the afternoons. Definitely had multiplication fact races and definitely got my ass kicked a few times...I was a little rusty.
- The QUAD and Sam and Shanay-nay came to my house and we made a ridiculous gingerbread house (complete with the eleventh doctor and a fail-roof).
- Skyscraper (Holiday Edition) happened. If you want to hear it, ask for the file.
- Mischka (I'm sad Mischka didn't stick) and I went to Bex's for candymaking! An excellent weekend full of cats, candy, and the circle of death!

Week 2:
- Florida for 3 and half days with two of my cousin-sisters (the third came the day after I left SADNESS), their Moooooooom (said like it should be) and my grandparents! We laid in the sun and read and talked and ate. And that was about it. T'was wonderful and full of sunshine and happiness.
- Michigan for 2 or 3 days (math is hard) for Christmas! Incredible weather difference. Still full of happiness, but it was chilled happiness.

Week 3:
- Returned from Michigan!
- Pouted about having to go back to school on the 3rd because classes started the 4th!
- Sent a Christmas text. It said "Merry Christmas to all my sexy, beautiful, or strange peoples. Pick whatever adjective you want. Sexys, you know who you are." Every single person who answered picked sexy.
- ...I'm not really sure what I did during Week 3 other than pout, watch NCIS on USA and hang out with two of my most favorite sexys ever.
- Won the Point Leader trophy in my Fantasy Football league! Then I was sad when I found out I don't get an actual trophy in the mail from the NFL. IT LOOKED SO SHINY.
- Did not go to the playoffs in my Fantasy Football league. It was a fluke. It should have been you and I, Brian. It would have been a bloodbath.


Miscellaneous Events that Occurred Sometime in the Past Month
- Played the Game of Things. Holy AMAZING. One of my top 5 favorite games ever. But it totally depends on the people you play with and how well you know them. There were six of us playing and we all knew each other really well (Buhbuh counts because he and the other boys had the vehicular connection) and we all have a really twisted, dirty, incredible sense of humor (some more than others) and after a while there was no way anyone could possibly know who said what. Secretaries.
- Anti-Christmas Trixmas cookies on Trixmas. No explanation available.
- Played the Game of Things AGAIN. This time with five of us. It still worked. Still one of the best games ever. Secretaries.
- Driving in the snow. Took 4 hours to get home. Worth it.
- Retired Tiva. Acquired Dos Tiva. Tiva lives on at home as a desktop because she stopped believing she was a laptop. That was less than optimal.

People I was Mistaken for:
- My cousin's sister (who was singing in the choir)
- My brother's girlfriend (who was not present)
- Brian's sister (who I do not look like at ALL)
- An intruder (damn dog I CAN GO TO BED WHENEVER I WANT TO I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE ASLEEP YOU'RE IN MY DAMN SPOT ON THE BED GET YOUR HEAD OFF MY PILLOW)
- My mother (who I apparently look like but not really because my hair is about a foot and a half longer)


Out-of-Context Quotes from However Long it has been Since I Last Posted:

*faint vaccuuming*
"Do you hear music playing? I wonder if it's someone above us."
"No...I hear a vaccuum?"
"Maybe that was it."
"...what the hell kind of music do you listen to?!"

Things you can't stop.
Believin'.

What should I take a picture of first? The dark building? The empty parking lot? Or the invitation she showed me 5 minutes ago that I had to point to the part where it says "January 13, 2012" under Date?

"What is it?"
"It's Apples to Apples in a can, duh!"

"Where's the pear? We need to make more butts."

"I see you traded your names for ovaries."
