I think that's a record...

It's been almost 3 months since I've blogged. Technically, 2 months and 22 days... I think.

Either way, it's getting late. And here's how I know.

Jack Jack was up here with me and we were watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. He was really cute and tired, and kept resituating himself to be comfortable. Eventually, (around 11:30) he fell asleep. And he stayed there, leaning on my shoulder and cutting off my arm circulation a little for about a half hour, at which point Chaelomen came to get him.

Now, before I came down, I was working on Alli's Christmas present, and I had to reprint some quotes, and then Jack Jack was just really cute so I decided we could watch a Mickey Mouse, but while he was asleep, I got online and started reading blogs. So then when Chaelomen took him away, I kept reading blogs. I can get to Alli's present again later.

Anyway, It's been about 3 months since I've updated, which means it's been about 2 since I've read any one else's blog. I was reading MJ's-- her rant, specifically-- and it mentions how her MIL and SsIL (that's "sisterS in law," because she's all about the grammar)... which is where I can start to tell it's late.

I sat there for a minute or two (no exaggeration, so it really was quite a while) thinking sisters in law... Who are MJ's sisters in law?! There's Carebear, that's one... I don't think she has any others!

Then I realized. Wait. Scooter's a SIL too. Oh, and me.

So I can tell it's late because I had to think about who Chaelomen's sisters are. I can tell it's even later, because I didn't even think of me first. I thought of Carebear, then had to realize I'm related to her.

And it's EVEN LATER, because until about 30 seconds ago, I didn't realize what SsIL had to do with grammar...

I get it now, though. Because it's SisterS In Law, not Sister In LawS.

Oh my. Time for bed. I think maybe I'll finish Alli's present... tomorrow. Or, technically, later today. :) Night, everyone.

Jay Walking... part 2

While "Jaywalking" at school--

We told this kid to play dumb.
"Do you know what's at the bottom of the Grand Canyon?"
"The sky."
"... No, the bottom."
"Oh. Uhh..."
At least, I hope we told him.

haha or I also liked this answer...

"Do you know why we celebrate Thanksgiving?"
"Because of the turkeys."
"The turkeys?"
"Yeah, the turkeys killed some pilgrims."
"The turkeys killed the pilgrims?"
"Yeah."

It was a lot of fun doing this project. Media concepts is definitely a good class.

"Jay" walking

So for one of my classes this semester, media concepts, we're going around the school and asking Jaywalking-type questions. You know, common-knowledge questions that some people don't know the answer to. Then laugh at their stupidity...

(4th, 6th, and 8th grade level questions) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQoB8HJjins

(fourth of July questions) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ddtc4FypXzk&feature=related

We got to watch these two during class, which was pretty sweet. Anyway, I post this blog asking for help.

Our questions we've been asking the school are too easy. The hardest one we had-- How many planets are in the solar system? (8) Someone actually said 12. Uhh, can you name all those, sir?

We thought the questions were fine, but then we read another groups questions-- What four presidents do you see at Mount Rushmore?

So we're going to get some new questions, and so if you could, give me your ideas, so we can laugh at my school :)

a new blog?!

So the other day... or month at the teacher appreciation dinner, I found out that two of the kids in my seminary class graduated early, and that probably 5 other kids are planning on graduating at semester. Which is cool for them and everything, and I know it shouldn't, but it really makes me feel inadequate. Like if they can do it, so can I and so should I.

I don't know. Just wanted to share that.

And then, about 2 weeks ago, Sara and I were watching Boy Meets World, and we watched the Chick Like Me episode, when a brilliant idea pops in our heads! why don't WE try to dress like boys! haha. It seemed so easy, and we borrowed some clothes from random friends, and the getting dressed part was easy. Believe it or not, the hard part was figuring out what do to with our hair.


Needless to say, we do not make very good boys. I would not date myself, especially with the high pitched voice I had. haha

FML

Today, a cab driver had to sign me out of the emergency room because I didn't know who else to call. FML

today is the first day of summer break! :) woo but actually, I still have a project to do for great books so I can get an A in that class this semester. it's an art project based off of The Kite Runner and Song of Solomon, but I think I know what I want to do. I could probably be half way close to done, but it's not due until I get back to school in August, and a new web site has taken up my interests.

Today, I realized that my glade plug-in air freshner lasts longer than any of my relationships have. FML

http://www.fmylife.com/ people go there, and can post little things that happened to them that day, and everyone else laughs at their misery. so if you're having a bad day, go there and feel better about yourself. or go there anyway, just because it's that fun to read :)

Today, I am wearing a panda suit for the promotion of the restaurant I work at. FML

and just for the record, none of these FMLs are mine ha

Today, I graduated from college and my parents gave me an apple. Not the computer, the fruit. FML
