Hmmm

Tonight was really fun.

I woke up way too early, but it was nice because I got some laundry done. Then I chilled for a few hours and talked with Jacqui and Jina about Jina's tattoo that she wants to get. I think she wants it to say something like "The trust of the innocent gives power to the... evil?" or something- I totally butchered it. Jacqui said it sounded like a quote for child molesters or pedophiles, because they often misuse trust as a source for their power. I totally agree. Jina had a rebuttal with words to the effect of "my mind is already made up" followed by an explanation of the quote being a piece of advice to not be so naive.

As native speakers of English, Jess and I said people will think she's a child molester based on the quote. Plus it was really long and she wants it tattooed on her lower arm/wrist area.

Sigh. Hopefully she changes her mind. But the discussion was fun.

Then we all got tacos!! AND frozen yogurt!! Weeeeeeee!! I got carne asada and pollo soft tacos and then chocolate/almond swirl with waffle cone pieces, strawberries, raspberries, whipped cream, almonds and like 4 mini m&ms. Oh so good!!

After that I headed to aerobics class, did the stadium work-out, and went home to get cleaned up for an evening of mini golf and In-N-Out accompanied by great conversation and random moments. It was a fun, yet tiring day, but I'm not so sure how to interpret the ending to the evening. It's difficult to distinguish the difference between being respectful and uninterested I guess. And I have to be up at 6:15 so I'll try to over analyze everything in the morning :)

Chinatown again tomorrow!! Gotta try to find a knife for my dad :)

Good Night.

p.s. I ordered a new sterling silver diamond shaped onyx pendant. I hope I like it. It's weird shopping online. I still miss my necklace too.

Lost Necklace

So sad!!!

Just about a week ago I cleaned my room. It was great- totally clean and presentable. Now there's only one problem:

I can't find my necklace ANYWHERE!!!

Seriously, I've looked in, under, and on everything!! I've checked my room, truck and the bathroom so many times over. It's so sad! I am about to give up and cry :(

It was the wonderful black diamond necklace I took from Amy nearly 5 years ago. I've had it forever and miss it dearly. It was, without question, the most PERFECT necklace in the world.

*sigh*

That was Easy

Emma and I made a short play this evening. She wore gerbil ears from a del taco kids meal I got probably close to a year ago and I put my hair in pigtails like a "hamster"

The script would have looked something like this:

Michelle: (running out to center "stage") I am a hamster and am on a very VERY difficult mission!!
Emma: (running to Michelle with "Easy" button from Staples in hand) It's not difficult! I'm a gerbil. (presses button)
Staples Button: That was easy.

End Scene.

I wish I had pictures, but alas, it was a spur of the moment short skit. Then we played barrel of monkeys and launched tiny plastic pigs in the front yard. Such a great day.

Life is great right now. I'm loving everything about it. This was the break I needed oh so much. I can't even begin to explain how much happier I am just by having free time to enjoy with friends and my family. Bobby came to visit this past week. Had I taken summer school (not counting aerobics) and been working more, there's no way he would have come down and we had so much fun, he stayed longer than expected. It was great to have the time to do that.

I'm just really happy :)

Haha, and yes, there maaayyy be a boy involved, but really, it's too soon to tell. I'm thinking good thoughts and enjoying the ride.

Ok, I had work at 6 this morning and am about to pass out.

Later homes.

I should be getting paid by NBC

Because my life is a much better sit-com than half the shows they air.

Yeah, I still can't get over that whole celebrity cast away thing. They should have left the "celebrities" stranded on an inflatable emergency craft of sorts and released a group of sharks. That would be more productive and possibly more entertaining.

So Father's Day is next weekend- no luck on gifts, but I'm going out to find a good card. I hate having to find something for a dad who just buys whatever he needs and doesn't want many things... other than like property in Hawaii or a pet lion or something crazy like that.

Eek! Post office closes at 6, gotta go!

And Congrats Jina for finishing finals!! Woo Hoo!! Celebrations are definitely to be had :)

Broke

So my right foot is still broken.

I'm starting to think that going to aerobics this week may not have been the best thing for it, but taking a week off is really not an option if I want to see results in 2 more weeks. I walked 15 miles in relay for life and nearly killed myself. Around mile 12.5 it started killing me and I just kept going (I stopped by "first aid"... even though they didn't have anything -no tylenol or advil - but they had one gel thing for burns....) yeah, so not fun. More details later maybe.

OK the show "I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here" is on. I've never seen it before, but in the 5 mins I've watched I have to say this is the STUPIDEST show ever.... EVER! Just when I think it can't get worse... it does. And speaking of celebrities, was Alec Baldwin's brother ever actually a celebrity? I think I've only ever seen him on either reality shows or in movies (LIke Fred Claus) where he is a character playing himself and complaining about being Alec Baldwin's brother... I think he's name is Stephen, but I'm not sure.

Oh dear Lord! San-Jaya (that American Idol kid) is on this show.

That's it, I've had about all I can take for one night :)

NBC, I am severely disappointed in y'all. ya'll? Hmm... I don't know how to actually spell that word (probably because it's not actually a word).
