Sun King 3

This looks very very comfy to me...

Reminiscing

Old Brown Shoe

Lets talk about 3 things in 50 Words

1. I Boiled My Fingers Today

2. My Phone is Fucked: How it Happened and the Fallout

3. I Can't Believe it's Been a Year

I Boiled My Fingers Today

I made my family supper today consisting of Guinness Stew, soda bread and Irish Cream brownies (all made from scratch, of course). While I was making the stew (which turned out very tasty despite is need of more potatoes) my poor finger managed to dip into the boiling pot. OUCH!

My Phone is Fucked:How it Happened and the Fallout

One minute my phone was working fine the next the screen went out and would not come back on. I took it in and they said it was a software problem. Long story short my phone is going to be completely cleared and I have to use a SHITTY loaner.

I Can't Believe it's Been a Year

March is the one year anniversary of a lot of things that were pretty big for me. Europe for example (among other things). It never seems to stop baffling me how quickly time passes and how drastically things change. I have come a long long way in a year.

*** Anyone wondering why this post is called Old Brown Shoe it is because all 3 of my topics make me feel like an Old Brown Shoe. My finger hurts, I'm sad about my phone and I'm trying to feel numb about the one year since ******* thing. However, I still feel like saying that I feel oddly optimistic today. I think it must be waking up to nice phone calls (OH and not going to work because you hate it (getting fired here I come)).

Sunday again? So soon? I fail at being a "blogger." Oh well.....

Sun King

SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY!!

Here's something to look forward to. Every Sunday (that I remember) I will post a picture of something that for some reason has amused me in he week. Here we have a little girl riding a rhino... done.

Slow Down

Ok so that CD cover making game is ALL I have been doing lately (I'm sick....). It is SO fun.

Here is one I just made for the hell of it.

I would totally listen to a band called Conklin, New York.

I have also been reading One Sentence and folding Origami while talking to Luke on MSN (and by talking I mean sitting on web cam while he watches the news and I fold sail boats a.k.a. loveliness). I like it when things slow down a bit. It's nice.

Here is my weekend in point form (cause I love point form)


Friday

• Had a decent time at work (I love Ashley and Jordan. It's nice seeing love that's just there and easy.).


• Amanda and I went to the Liquor store where I spent $100 (We saw people from school and I seriously didn't remember the one... I felt a little bad).


• Amanda and I drank at the birds house (I wish I liked Absinthe more then I do....*shiver*)


• I danced pretty hard to Jesse's Girl and fell down in the hall


• Amanda and I wore down before we even made it to the bar (I blame What Not to Wear)


• I went home and talked to Luke for an hour on the phone (We discussed cake and life in Canada)
  

Saturday

• I can't remember what I did in the day.....


• I tried to get Amanda to agree to come out to O'Hanlon's but she insisted on not coming (Kristy called her and she changed her mind)


• We danced and drank and danced and went out for smokes and danced some more.


• A boy looked at my boobs very blatantly for a long time while we talked and it was awkward as hell (Way to be subtle boy...)
  
• We ran into an old friend (who didn't remember us ..... awesome) and almost went to hangout with him when the night was over (but his sister wouldn't let us).
  

Sunday

• I went for lunch with Jenn. After, we went looking for sofas (and learn we are NOT sofa compatible) and I consider getting something pierced.
  
• We went back to Jenn's house and I read all about bat boy and the lady with stiletto implants!



• Matt, Jenn and I played Settlers of Catan ( mostly I just watch Mean Girls... which is a very good movie).


• I couldn't get a hold of Amanda so I went to Trivia with Fran, Kristy and Julie (we get 4th AGAIN.... but mostly because some nice boys helped us out)


• We had the best trivia name by far (If you have sex with a sleeping hooker is it rape or shoplifting? .... This is awful but if you have ever been to trivia you know that's the point)


• We also had the best drawings by far (thank you Fran!)


• After all is said and done Kristy, Julie and I go for gross pizza (that ultimately made me sick) and talk (I am not i on the conversation a lot and I see what it fees like to be someone listening to Amanda and I. But I'm ok with it. It's nice to just absorb other peoples friendship sometimes).


• I go to sleep but do not sleep well.... damn you sore throat and fever that makes my -20 basement feel like the Sahara!
  

And to end this post I leave you with lyrics that pretty much describe exactly what I want.

~

I will live my life as a lobsterman's wife on an island in the blue bay.

He will take care of me, he will smell like the sea,

And close to my heart he'll always stay.

I will bear three girls all with strawberry curls, little Ella and Nelly and Faye.

While I'm combing their hair, I will catch his warm stare

On our island in the blue bay.
