Lessons
Well I haven't blogged in forever, so I'm going to tell the first story that comes to mind: Last night I went to the ARA for Matthew's party. Somehow Gabi managed to make the shampoo explode all over the bath house, all over her, and when she jumped in the pool (WITHOUT taking a shower first), all in the pool. I was spitting up soap all night from swallowing the tiniest amount, when Edward pulled me in, resulting in swallowd water and a big gross purple/yellow bruise on my knee. Oh well, it matches all the others well.
Lesson: Don't eat shampoo, or let people pull you into pools.
After that I went to Eva's house for a sleepover, and of course James (her little brother who's in 4th grade) had 12 friends over, who were constantly banging on our wall, making it almost impossible to sleep, so I threatened to in thier sleep if the didn't stop. They stoped.
Lesson: 4th graders are afraid of empty threats.

Asylum for Verbally Insane
I thought you might appreciate these abuses of English:
Asylum for the Verbally Insane
(Author unknown)
We'll begin with a box, and the plural is boxes,
But the plural of ox becomes oxen, not oxes.
One fowl is a goose, but two are called geese,
Yet the plural of moose should never be meese.
You may find a lone mouse or a nest full of mice,
Yet the plural of house is houses, not hice.
If the plural of man is always called men,
Why shouldn't the plural of pan be called pen?
If I speak of my foot and show you my feet,
And I give you a boot, would a pair be called beet?
If one is a tooth and a whole set are teeth,
Why shouldn't the plural of booth be called beeth?
Then one may be that, and three would be those,
Yet hat in the plural would never be hose,
And the plu ral of cat is cats, not cose.
We speak of a brother and also of brethren,
But though we say mother, we never say methren.
Then the masculine pronouns are he, his and him,
But imagine the feminine: she, shis and shim!
Let's face it - English is a crazy language.
There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger;
neither apple nor pine in pineapple.
English muffins weren't invented in England .
We take English for granted, but if we explore its
paradoxes, we find that
quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square,
and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.
And why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing,
grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham?
Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but
not one amend.
If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of
all but one of them, what do you call it?
If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught?
If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a
humanitarian eat?
Sometimes I think all the folks who grew up speaking
English should be
committed to an asylum for the verbally insane.
In what other language do people
recite at a play and play at a recital?
We ship by truck but send cargo by ship.
We have noses that run and feet that smell.
We park in a driveway and drive in a parkway.
And how can a slim chance and a fat chance be the
same, while a wise man and
a wise guy are opposites?
You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a
language in which your house
can burn up as it burns down,
in which you fill in a form by filling it out,
and in which an alarm goes off by going on.
And, in closing, if Father is Pop,
how come Mother's not Mop?
I give up !
All I Ask
The link is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMuGSpTbWPg
And the lyrics are as follows:
All I Ask by Vanessa Carlton
Fumbling down a road lined with signs
It's obvious I'm in the wrong direction
And I won't stop now you know I feel fine
Just looking for some affection
All I ask is to be able to hold on longer
And all I ask is to be able to walk on water
Walk on water
I figure it won't be long it won't be hard
I've just got to get my feet back on the ground
Just got a hold of some unlucky cards
And I have yet to make another round
All I ask is to be able to hold on longer
And all I ask is to be able to walk on water
Walk on water
No one lent a hand No one laid a look upon me
Invisible to everything but blame
No one dared to believe in anything And left me to drown in this place
All I ask is to be able to hold on longer
And all I ask is to be able to walk on water
Walk on water
lost along the way!!!
the ultimite place with all the really stupid quotes you can't help but laugh at
So this isthe ultimite place whereI shall putall the really stupid quotesI can't help but laugh at and other I just like
* Note, I stole the first couple from Black
I'm not suffering from insanity. I'm enjoying every minute of it.*
Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you.*
Flying is simple. You just throw yourself at the ground and miss.*
I've gone to the dark side. But don't worry, I brought a flashlight.*
When life gives you lemons, make apple juice and let them wonder how you did it.*
She's right you know, we are being watched 80% of the time.
Life is short, break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile.
You laugh at me because I'm different. I laugh at you because you're all the same.
Life's short, talk fast.
42.7 percent of all statistics are made up on the spot.
99 percent of lawyers give the rest a bad name.
Remember, half the people you know are below average.
He who laughs last thinks the slowest.
Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.
The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese
in the trap.
Support bacteria. They're the only ure some people have.
A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.
Change is inevitable, except from vending machines.
If you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments.
OK, so what's the speed of dark?
When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.
Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.
Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines
What happens if you get scared half to , twice?
Inside every older person is a younger person wondering, "What the
heck happened?"
Just remember -- if the world didn't suck, we would all fall off.
Light travels faster than sound. That's why some people appear
bright until you hear them speak.
Life isn't like a box of chocolates; it's more like a jar of
jalepeno's. What you do today, might burn you're ass tomorrow.
If you read all of those and are stll sanem I applaud you!
PS: My new icon,for those of you who didn't know, is a pic from The Mixed Tape video by Jack's Mannquin that features Hilarie Burton. Before the Tv.com 'icon rules' cut it down ou could see more of her.
the last day of vacatoin... HELP!
Thanks
read at your own risk...
Okay, well since I haven't posted anything in who knows when (1 month and 15 days) I decided to rant about everything that can possibly be bothering me and maybe scream every once in a while, hopefully you won't hear it.
So enjoy the next few words-thrown-together-in-hopes-of-making-sense-and-such of un-edited, un-revised ranting:
Well, yesterday i got my hair cut for the first time this year (not including the whole bangs debocole, and how the **** do you spell that????). I want everyone to realize that it is the 25th of December so that means my hair got LONG as in like past my elbows long and now it barley touches my shoulders! I swear when I woke up this morning and saw all my hair was gone I still thought I was dreaming *insert scream here*.
Also I went to the first Christmas service of my life this morning at the NC, and I don't mean to offend anybody but I gotta say it was a little boring. Of course it was followed by eating cookies that nobody wanted for them selves and lemme tell you,mine were barley even touched.
BTW does anyone know a trilogy of books Uglies, Pretties and Specials 'cuz my dad got them in hopes that I would like them and my mom got me a movie a movie called We Are The Strange, does anyone know WTF that is?
I'm gonna repaint my room and I picked out a very creepy shade of grey-lavender, don't ask me why, but, now I can't change my mind 'cuz the paints all ready bout and all that. So that effectively means I have to take all my drawings, magazine cut-outs and album artwork off the wall and leave it to me, the queen of bad decisions on details thatlater blow up in my face, I used masking tape so not only does it peel the paint of the walls but it rips up the things ON the walls so now they're all basically unusable.
now in hopes of coming off funny I have and incredibly lame, stupid attempt of a joke:
One bright morning, in the middle of the night, two boys got up to fight. Back to back they faced each other, drew their swords and shot each other. A deaf policeman hear the noise, and came and killed those two boys.
So if you read all of that junk, which I bet you didn't, you can proudly say that you have just wasted at least 5 minutes of your life that you will NEVER get back. So next time you consider reading one of my blogs think about how much time you'll be wasting reading my extremely random rants, when you could be off somewhere watching re-runs of t.v. shows you used to like, or at least that's what I would be doing!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
Oh my God, the sheer intensity of that merriness makes my teeth hurt!
