I do not normally get excited about celebrities. Sissy Spacek lives in the county. I see her around town every once in a while. Dave Matthews comes into Bodo's all the time. His neice used to be our baker. But today, oh man, I got super giddy over a celebrity ( Read more... )

This guy I work with was telling me, when his neighbor asked him how he'd gotten sick, he told him it was my fault. (He'd insisted he didn't get sick so I hugged him a bunch and coughed on him a little bit just to prove him wrong.) The neighbor asked what my last name was. Turns out my coworker lives next door to an ex-boyfriend of mine. Robert. I ( Read more... )

I've been sick for the last four days, so sick I had a hard time standing up long enough to do the dishes yesterday, but went into work this morning anyway. I kept having coughing fits and spent more time washing my hands than I did working, so right before my first break my manager told me to just go home. I think I'm getting better though. I can ( Read more... )

My little sister and I took my half sister's kids to see Alvin and the Chipmunks yesterday. My neice just turned nine. They had seen it once, but when I asked if she wanted to see any movies for her birthday she went, "yes... but oh... you probably don't want to see it ( Read more... )

The other night I went out with a guy who pulled the coat trick. He took my coat when I walked in the door and put it in his bedroom, so I had to go in there to get it later on when I wanted to leave. It was pretty obvious what he was doing once I walked in his room, but I guess I just assumed he was being nice when he'd taken my coat in the first

My birthday is next month, so I bought myself an exercise bike. It's foldable! I can't wait to ride it twice and then fold it up and put it away in the closet for several years (until I donate it to the salvation army or maybe the church rummage sale).

I didn't go out for New Year's Eve last night. It's always too disappointing of a holiday. I ended up going over to my mom's after work and having some pizza with her. Then I headed home, got in bed, read a really good book and fell asleep some time after midnight ( Read more... )

I am in a bizarre mood. I have to work tomorrow at seven and am not even a little bit ready for bed.

I've gone on four dates this week. I'm going on another this afternoon. I guess I'm sort of selectively old fashioned. I don't have a problem initiating the whole going on a date part, but I still expect the boy to be the one paying for the date. I definitely don't choose expensive places for a first date. The teahouse or a coffee shop or Christian ( Read more... )

I don't know why I'm still up. My sister made a really delicious dinner for her boyfriend tonight. She didn't finish cooking until nine. She let me have some of it. Then we all watched Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer ( Read more... )
