Boys are stupid, it's true, simple as that. So last night we go to BW's and everything is fine. We're holding hands (ok, cheesy, but cute, c'mon), talking, laughing, having fun except for the mini-waitress coming over and flirting with him all the time. "I need tires. Maybe I'll come in sometime this week." I found it funny though, so anyway ( Read more... )

My mom is making spaghetti sauce. The whole house smells like garlic. Mike is to my right in the family room watching a James Bond Marathon. My dad is to my left at the kitchen counter making the Christmas shopping list. Joe is behind him stirring the spaghetti sauce and talking about cars. My mom is standing next to him adding spices to the ( Read more... )

1) What stickers do you have on your car, if any? I don't have a car so that would mean I don't have stickers for the non-existent car ( Read more... )

So this semester has been a weird one. I'm still adjusting to CLP (I really love it, but sometimes it's a little bit overwhelming) and trying to balance Pi Phi and classes and work and feeling lost inside my own life. So this weekend I decided to just let go. Friday, I went to Castleton with Becky and Katie to see the movie "Pride and Prejudice ( Read more... )

My parents brought me a copy of the Tempo section of the "Chicago Tribune" this weekend. The amazingly talented writers in this section decided to make up songs for a White Sox musical in celebration of their victory. The musical is called "South Side Story." Here are the songs: I've been singing them outloud because I'm a dork and they're ( Read more... )

Today is one of my "U of I Days." Those days when I think what if I'd gone to the University of Illinois in Champaign/Urbana (where I had my heart set on going, had been accepted, and decided in May not to go to for whatever reason). Would it have been different? I have my U of I days when I just feel like I don't belong. Today. I was sitting ( Read more... )

So as part of the trials and times of Jackie Dulian's cleaning hours, today was a disaster. Vacuum number one decided to spit up clouds of dust all over the floor mats so I made more of a mess than I actually cleaned up. I changed the vacuum bag but it still didn't solve the problem. So I switched vaccuums and everything was going fine. I was ( Read more... )

I have friends! Isn't that amazing? I feel so out of the loop. I've just been so busy lately (lately meaning this entire semester thus far) and I've been going to meetings or to this and that and I haven't had time to just "hang out." I like hanging out. You know, just sitting around and talking or watching a movie or whatever. But today I ( Read more... )

So yesterday I was in Mass and had walked back to my seat from Communion and was standing and singing when I saw someone who looked familiar. It looked like Mr. Crosby, my high school Social Studies teacher but my high school is five hours away in Illinois so I was sure that I was just seeing things. I wasn't. After Mass, I called his name and ( Read more... )
