Immune System: Enable

There's a bug going around, and I just hung out at the apartment of an infected one. Rachel's fine, but Josh has it. He was asleep in the other room, but still. No sick for me!

And in case you were wondering what sort of bug, I leave you with part of a song:

When you're climbing up a ladder and you hear something splatter...

haha, eww.

Happy Christmas!

I'm British! umm.... So I'm a little upset that I can't find the USB cable that I bought about a year ago to upload some pictures on this computer. My parents like to "clean" and "organize" which means "lose things" to me. That's ok.

Anyway, my family celebrated Christmas on Saturday, the 23rd, which was also the last day of Hanukah. This was because my aunt and uncle spent yesterday and today with my aunt's family in Santa Ana, Texas (yes, a town named after the Mexican general!). So, I feel like my Christmas schedule is all outta whack. It was funny coming back from Boerne and seeing parking lots full of last-minute Christmas shoppers' cars, trucks, and SUVs. My grandma stayed with us Saturday and Sunday night, so at least there was some out-of-town company. I made her and my parents open their presents from me last night since it was Christmas Eve, and not Christmas Eve Eve Day......

I had asked my mom what to get her and my dad, and she said she needed glasses and silicone potholder things, and my dad needed a hose and one of those long-neck sprayer attachments. So, that's what I got them... But what's funny is that a few days later after I had already bought my dad a hose, I asked him what to get my grandma. He said, "She needs a hose!" Boy, was I lucky that I could keep a straight face. So, I went back to Lowe's and bought the exact same one for her. I had never bought a hose before, and last week I bought two!

Wanna look like a model?

haha, wow... Well, you won't look like yourself!

Haha, at first I thought "tripped on mushrooms" literally meant tripping over some mushrooms on the ground...... This was boring, but it was something, eh?

The old man is snoring.

It's raining.

That means I can't go running.

And the treadmill has presents on it.

Darn.

Scrape, scrape...

So I'm in Texas again (you can be jealous..or not, if you are in Texas!) and my parents are redoing the living room. They are always redoing something, by the way; my mom picks colors and decorative things, and my dad does the renovating/building. Just so you know, I blame this all on HGTV and DIY. Anyway, the living room floor and stairs are now hardwood after being carpeted for this house's 27 years of existence. The carpet had been changed before, but it's just weird because I grew up in this house and now the living room is very echoey. haha, I should give recitals in it! umm, no...

The stairs aren't quite complete, and they're kind of lacking a vital part, as in a BANISTER. There's only a wall on one side, so a banister is pretty essential. Some painters are here right now doing some faux painting (wow, something my dad doesn't know how to do), and of course the wall that they're doing this on is the stair wall. I was up in my room practicing and my cell phone rang. It was my mom who was downstairs (haha) saying that she just made some lunch and that I needed to be very careful going down stairs. Well, there was only about 5 inches between the ladders and the edge of the stairs, and still no banister! It was scary, but obviously I didn't die.

I'll add a picture sometime. My camera is upstairs at the moment, and I'm not looking forward to that trek.

Oh, and "scrape, scrape" is what the painting sounds like...

Shoes x 2

Ok, I don't really have anything to blog about, but Amber was whining about my blog not being updated. Then I complained about hers not being updated either, and her last post was also December 5. hehhh. Great minds think alike and wear the same shoes. The same two pairs of shoes even. Too bad our feet aren't the same size.


Yeah, I got nothin'.

But at least now you have a picture to look at! (as of Wednesday...are you happy now, Jill?)

The End.

Let's put that cat right back in the bag.

OMGOMG...

NO MORE CAT STUFF FOR ME!

TOO MUCH!

And how do I tell this to my family without hurting their feelings? (Note: By "family" I am mostly referring to my mother.)

It's ironic that the year that I've decided I DO NOT want any more cat stuff is the same year that any family member has yet to ask me what I want for Christmas.

And the reason for the freak out? Well, let me show you:

My mom thought she'd order me some pictures from art.com as an early Christmas present. It's not that I dislike them...it's just that I have SO much cat stuff as it is and really don't have any place to put these! Maybe if I keep one of them pictures, my mom won't feel as bad. (If I kept all, she would buy more because she'd feel really confident, trust me.) And there's one that I really do like a lot, which is the one in the middle. It's a small one, so I could find room for that.

So anyway, I suppose that's enough venting from me.

Edit (Wednesday): Another day, another cat picture. lskjdoriwlkjsf.
