this one's from my mom's mom...
Types of Undergarments
A man walked into the ladies' department of a Macy's and shyly walked up to the woman behind the counter and said, "I'd like to buy a bra for my wife."
"What type of bra?" asked the clerk.
"Type?" inquired the man. "There is more than one type?"
"Look around," said the saleslady, as she showed a sea of bras in every shape, size, color and material. "Actually, even with all of this variety, there are really only four types of bras," she replied.
Confused, the man asked what the types were. The saleslady replied, "The Catholic type, the Salvation Army type, the Presbyterian type, and the Baptist type. Which one do you need?"
Still confused, the man asked, "What is the difference between them?"
The lady responded, "It is all really quite simple... the Catholic type supports the masses, the Salvation Army type lifts up the fallen, the Presbyterian type keeps them staunch and upright, and the Baptist type makes mountains out of molehills."

well, kiddos, it's been a while since the last time i wrote but i've been rather busy and everything with work and stuff.
the latest?! i went to kingwood today to spend time with the family. that was lots of fun getting to see everyone again. i haven't been getting much sleep recently (and i blame it all on matt *wink*) so today while i was sitting on the couch watching the indie 500, i fell asleep. i have NO idea how long i was asleep...or what happened, but i woke up to all the guys around me talking about stuff and the news was on. mom was worried about me driving home because she said i looked really tired. i don't think they think i get enough sleep. guess 4 hrs a night isn't good enough, huh?
ann's at the hospital again. she was admitted to the emergency room last night with a fever and a swollen knee. they pulled some fluid out, took blood tests (3) and decided that her wbc was right on the border between infection and inflammation so they didn't give her any antibiotics so they could determine in the morning (she stayed over night) whether or not they were going to have to go back into surgery to "wash out" her knee. turns out she woke up this morning and her knee was big and her temperature was still up so they decided to take the 8:00 surgery time they had reserved and go in and wash it out so that they wouldn't have to worry about it. she's staying the night again tonight and perhaps tomorrow night as well. i'm just waiting on my phone call from her telling me that she's alright and telling me how she feels and stuff. i talked to her dad today, so i know she's ok, but i'd like to hear it from her, too. i wanna see her, but since she's still at the hospital...yeah. i'll see her when she gets home, i'm sure...i hope.
we lost the swim meet against david's team (my old team). seriously, i don't think i have been yelled at so many times in my entire life! but, it's over and i'm not dealing with it anymore. i'm not going to have to see them again until divisionals and then it won't just be us so it should (i hope) be better.
matt and i are doing well, for those of you who care.
don't worry, my "flirtation devices" are still intact, matt! *tehe*
i'll try to be better about updating from now on, but just incase i don't do this for another few days, i'm starting summer school on tuesday and tomorrow i'm going shopping with my boy for some...stuff!
CONGRATS TO ALL THE NEW COLLEGE FISH!!!!

don't you just LOVE how good i've been about blogging recently!? j/k i'm sure there's SOOOOOO much i could blog about but you guys know how i am...*evil grin* anyway, yesterday was ONE MONTH for matt and i. hehe...he came over last night! ...we had fun...
ok, i'm sorry if things aren't going the best for you, but you HAVE to tell me what's going on if there's something that i can do. if we've done something wrong, please let us know so that we can stop. i want to fix things, but i don't know how. :(
as for other things...just...get over it! it's not that big of a deal. what happened in the past is IN THE PAST! no one can go back and change what happened. if you don't want to know about it, (1) don't ask and (2) don't read back in my blog! goodness gracious.
kids on swim team...what to say about them. we had a "talk" with them yesterday. i got to be the super mean coach! haha...the kids all hate me. kim's the nice one. they always wanna know where she is when vanessa and i are there. *sigh* i think i should just give up on trying to please people. no matter what i do it's wrong, mean, insensitive, etc.
anyway, i gotta get going because i have to go buy colored duct tape for the 6 and unders and some stuff to make "something" after practice today! we'll see how things work... morning practices start tomorrow. glad matt came over last night!

well, i'm sorry for being such a bad blogger the past few days. not too much has been going on to blog about EXCEPT last night...
ok, so i had practice and that was fun. i was called the "mean coach" at all FOUR practices that i was coaching EVEN THOUGH i let them play WHATEVER game they wanted to. they all wanted to know where kim was and why she wasn't doing practice... *sigh* i try SOO hard yet i still can't make anyone happy.
so after the first 11-up practice i was talking to jordyn and she wanted to talk to matt so she called him...3 times...and finally left a message the 3rd time. and then he called us back but hung up before i could answer so she called back AGAIN! and got to talk to him. hehe...she's so funny. i love the team...too bad they hate me...*shrugs* what can ya do!?
I GOT TO SEE ERIN LAST NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it was soooo great to see her again. man, i can't wait for her to come spend the night some night! *tehe* SLUMBER PARTY!!!! anyway, yeah. we went to cheesecake factory. i almost got us (poor corinne) killed...like three times...i'm a horrible driver...i should never be allowed to drive...especially not lead. aaanyway, we got there and she got there and...it was great! BUT I TOTALLY FORGOT TO TAKE A PICTURE WITH HER. we STILL don't have a picture together. how does that work? oh well...
MATT LOOKS SOOOO GOOD NOW!!! :-D it's great! hehe...i love having a boyfriend!!!

If the devil were to write his beatitudes, they would probably go something like this:
1. Blessed are those who are too tired, too busy, too distracted to spend an hour once a week with their fellow Christians--- they are my best workers.
2. Blessed are those Christians who wait to be asked and expect to be thanked -- I can use them.
3. Blessed are the touchy who stop going to church -- they are my missionaries.
4. Blessed are the trouble makers -- they shall be called my children.
5. Blessed are the complainers -- I'm all ears to them.
6. Blessed are those who are bored with the minister's mannerisms and mistakes -- for they get nothing out of his sermons.
7. Blessed is the church member who expects to be invited to his own church -- for he is a part of the problem instead of the solution.
8. Blessed are those who gossip -- for they shall cause strife and division that please me.
9. Blessed are those who are easily offended -- for they will soon get angry and quit.
10. Blessed are those who do not give their offering to carry on God's work-- for they are my helpers.
11. Blessed is he who professes to love God but hates his brother and sister-- for he shall be with me forever.
12. Blessed are you who, when you read this, think it is about other people and not yourself -- I've got you too!
13. Blessed are those who put their will above God's Will-- for you are my best witnesses.

this post is being dedicated to my 4 FABULOUS brothers...
Well I saw the thing comin' out of the sky
It had the one long horn, one big eye.
I commenced to shakin' and I said "ooh-eee"
It looks like a purple people eater to me.
It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater.
(one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater)
A one-eyed one-horned,flyin' puple people eater
Sure looks strange to me. (one eye?)
Well he came down to earth and lit in a tree
I said Mr. Purple People Eater don't eat me
I heard him say in a voice so gruff
I wouldn't eat you 'cos you're so tough
It was a one-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
one-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
one-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
Sure looks strange to me. (one horn?)
I said Mr. Purple People Eater, what's your line
He said it's eatin' purple people and it sure is fine
But that's not the reason that I came to land
I wanna get a job in a rock and roll band
Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flying purple people eater.
Pigeon-toed, undergrowed, flyin' purple people eater
(we wear short shorts) Flyin' purple people eater
sure looks strange to me.
And then he swung from the tree and lit on the ground.
He started to rock, really rockin' around
It was a crazy little ditty with a swingin' tune
(sing awop bop aloo bop lop bam boom)
Well, bless my soul, rock and roll
flyin' purple people eater
Pigeon-toed, undergrowed, flyin' purple people eater.
Flyin' little people eater
Sure looks strange to me. (purple people?)
And then he went on his way, and then what do you know.
I saw him last night on a TV show.
He was blowing it out, a 'really knockin' em dead
Playin' rock and roll music through the horn in his head

(because i'm feeling this song tonight...)
Artist/Band: Carter Deana
Lyrics for Song: Count Me In
Lyrics for Album: Did I Shave My Legs For This?
Could there be a different ending
To the same old story
Cause you're not the first to say
You're gonna be there for me
I need to know what's in your heart
Can you finish what you start
How can I be sure I won't be sorry
If heartaches and tears and shadows of doubt
Are part of the deal, you can count me out
But if you're talking about a game I can win
You can count me in
When you tell me you're the one
I've always needed
You don't know how much I'm wanting
To believe it
But I've heard it all before
Now I'm needing something more
A promise is no good if you can't keep it
If heartaches and tears and shadows of doubt
Are part of the deal, you can count me out
But if you're talking about a game I can win
You can count me in

my back hurts. i need a REALLY good back massage...anyone wanna help me out here?!
tomorrow i have to wake up kinna early to bring connie into the shop. her top is falling apart (the window is falling into the car) so i need to get it fixed and then drive it to my daddy's office so i can steal his car from him so i can have that for tomorrow night when i drive all my friends to the galleria TO SEE ERIN!!!!!!!!!!!! :-D

455 to 165...i don't think they're in the right division...
so the meet...yeah... it started off REALLY badly. NOTHING was working the way it was supposed to, vanessa got really pissed off about...well...just about everything. the whole first page of our heat sheets say "DQ" next to ALL of our relays...it was bad. we're SOOO gunna work on those next week... refs, ready bench...i think the only ones of us that got along the whole meet were the coaches. whoever the head coach for that team was, was really nice. he supported me when i went to fight a call (and was fighting his own call), he offered to help me take out the lane ropes (then made fun of me for not getting it)... he has a FIRM grip, though. yeah...anyway... so we won so my kids pushed me into the water...with my clothes on...yay. OOOOH...so i saw coach ron today. (sammy and erin, do you remember him?!) he got married to someone who had a daughter... she pulls "rons" all the time...walking on the bottom during races and flutter kicking during breaststroke. it was nice to see him again...and for him to remember me.
FYI: I HAVE A POOL RECORD AT LONDONDERRY!!!!!! my 7-8 free relay (blosser, thompson, me, tyler) from 1993 holds the pool record with a 1:09.__. HOW AWESOME IS THAT?!?!?!? my dad pointed it out to me...if you wanna know the story just ask. i'll tell ya.
so after the meet the whole zach/kristen/scott thing i went to the surprise party and...yeah. that was fun. i would write more but i'm REALLY tired (and i've been in this bathing suit since 6-something this morning). i love you all...

well, kiddos...i don't have too much to write about today...
i had to vacuum the upstairs today so robert and i did that this morning, then i took a shower, got dressed and called ann to see if she was ready to go SHOPPING with me. we went to hobby lobby (and probably spent about 4 hrs in there looking at random things) then we headed to subway for lunch! (yay...it's on my diet!) after subway, we headed to academy because i needed a stopwatch...a better one than the one matt bought with me (no offense). so we go and as soon as we got there i was like "i just wanna look at the suits...not buy, just look!" and i told her what matt said yesterday when i was complaining about being bathing suit crazy as well. *insert ann laugh* so we go back and look...and i find some that i want to try on-just to try on, not to buy-and find one i HAVE to have...of course...of COURSE! :( so i bought it. at LEAST it's team colors, though, and it looks kind of like the team suit except my yellow is brighter and isn't see-through! so i got that, found a watch that i like (i'm actually wearing it right now cuz i just set it and everything...figure out all the buttons...stuff like that) and then we headed back home because i was supposed to be up at the pool by 2 to meet vanessa to "work off" last night's dinner. well, i got there about 2:15 and she wasn't there yet (thank goodness) but i saw the "scary guy" so i locked myself in the pool area. when she got there i let her in then locked us in there so he couldn't come talk to us or whatever. we didn't really end up swimming very much but it's alright because we got to bond! ALWAYS a good thing, i think, to bond with the people you work with! i still don't think they're going to ask me back next year, but it's all good...we'll see, right?!
so practice went...well, it went... i didn't do too much of anything today, except with the 6 and unders because kim doesn't like them much and i know their names and everything so...yeah. "if you touch the bottom, the side or the rope then YOU'RE OUT!" i'm not sure what that means, but that's what one of my little girls said today! *hehe* gotta love little kids!
during the 11-up practice i didn't do ANYTHING and then the second one, i talked to caroline and jordyn. *slap hand* bad coach. BAD COACH! i was watching, though...kind of...
when i got home sarah called me and asked if she could come "shop in my closet" for a banquet dress so i went to pick her up and she ended up bringing 4 of my dresses to her house to show her parents. i think she's going to end up wearing the black one, which looked GREAT on her, and i think she's gunna have a great time! tomorrow after pictures i'm supposed to go over there and help her get ready (ie: hair, make up, etc.) so hopefully we can get the team picture done first so i can get outta there ASAP! then, HOPEFULLY, matt will call me and we'll get to do something but we'll see about that.
AAAANYways...i'm still in my bathing suit and i'm tired and getting cranky (to myself) and my lips hurt so i'm going to shower and then go to bed (after reading a little harry potter).
MATT: TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ERIN: 3 DAYS

ok, guys...sorry i didn't blog last night but i got home and was REALLY tired so...yeah.
i went out to eat with michael, "haircut", jess, val and ryan last night at TGIFridays. funny enough, val and matt didn't order anything but the other four of us all got chicken fingers. HOLY COW can ryan eat. before the other three of us were on our second finger, he'd already cleared his plate. hehe...anyway... that was lots of fun...nice to hang out with them again. i miss doing stuff with them. oh, jess, if you find that article, send it my way. i wanna read it!
after dinner we went over to val's house to watch the season finale of gilmore girls. poor matt and michael...i'm sure they had LOTS of fun. i can't believe...stupid dean...he's MARRIED! *AHHHHHHHHH*
on my way home i got a nice phone call from scott so we talked for about 30 minutes and then i decided (he told me) to go to bed...so i left matt a message and off to bed it was for me!
my throat still hurts and i think my nose is starting to run, too. my eyes itch all the time... am i getting sick!? ONE DAY UNTIL MATT COMES HOME AND NOW I DECIDE TO GET SICK?! oh...it's that darn karma. *sigh*
i think i'm going to hobby lobby today and then up to the pool at 2 to swim off last night's dinner. vanessa said she'd go with me so...yeah. at least i won't be alone, right?!
i had a bad dream last night...hope it's not true...wish i knew what prompted it...

yay for having nice...i'm not sure what to call him... anyway, i just got back from picking up my box from the wilson's house. thanks, lee, for being such a sweetheart! we got to talking...he told me who i should have signed up for for english...too bad i didn't talk to him BEFORE i signed up... anyway, his girlfriend lives over in this direction so hopefully he'll call me someday and we can do lunch! maybe his girlfriend and matt will come along as well...that'd be fun! yay...i love going out with people. speaking of...i think jess, matt, michael and i are supposed to go out tonight but i'm not sure about the details...we'll see, right?!

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! just because you've got the car, the uniform, the padge does NOT give you the right to break the law. HELLO!!! you're supposed to be the "good example" that we all try to follow, REMEMBER?! so let me explain what happened. ok, some of you know that i live down the street from the police station so there are always cops in the left turn lane at that intersection (cypresswood and yorkminster)they all make their little u-turn there and go on their merry way. well, i'm coming home from running some "errands" and this ONE guy decides he doesn't have to wait for the light to turn green. IS THAT LEGAL!? maybe i'm just stupid and you can u-turn on a red light...and if i'm wrong, let me know, please (that's what the comment box is for, guys). *sigh*
well, after searching 3 different stores, i FINALLY found something that "will do" for a Confirmation gift. if i find something better, though, i'm gunna give the other thing. it's cute and all...and it makes sense, but...yeah. i think i can do better just...don't know where else to look, ya know?
i went to swimshops today but they don't have the suit i need in stock. it has to be special ordered so i need to call whoever placed the order to see if they have any extras in my size...but i don't know my size which makes everything a little more difficult... oh well. I JUST WANT A TEAM SUIT!!! (but the pretty one, not the ugly one...) we'll see what they say today at practice, i suppose...
my tummy's happy! i stopped at jason's deli on the way home and picked up a cup of BROCCOLI CHEESE SOUP!!!!!! :-D if you've never had their's you HAVE to try it. let me know and we'll go together. it's SOOO yummy!! my diet's not going very well, i've decided. oh well, right?!
i need to find lee's number so i can call and ask him if it's alright that i drop by and pick up my box. hope i don't wake him up, though, cuz then i'll feel really really bad...and he might hate me...and that's NOT something i want since we're gunna be family(-in-law) soon...
yay for another day of practice... hopefully i'll be "nice coach" today since kim will be back and i won't have to run practices all by my lonesome. (vanessa has been sooo busy with dealing with upset parents that she hasn't been able to help much with practice this week...or last for that matter... i feel sorry for her, i really do, but she does a great job!)

i woke up this morning, watched lady and the tramp while i ate pancakes and drank orange juice, sat around all day, picked up MOST of my room, then left at 3 for practice. well...i got there and bailey (the girl i was supposed to be giving private lessons to) wasn't there yet, so i was going to swim my nice 500 before 7-8 practice. i stopped after 150 or 200 because i was going to put my hair in a pony tail (cuz the one it was in wasn't helping much) and olivia was standing over me and told me that her mom wanted me to work with her on freestyle. no problem! so i work with her a little bit, she gets a LITTLE better...then bailey showed up so i worked with her on freestyle breathing and her backstroke start. YAY for bailey! she did SOO much better in our private lesson than she did in practice, though...maybe it IS the lane ropes... we put in the lane ropes, had the 7-8 practice (kids were being alright) then had the 9-10 practice...kids were misbehaving a little bit. between the 7-8 and 9-10 practices, i was working with some of the kiddos on their dives/turns/strokes and 1 person turned into 3 people which turned into a deepend full of people that didn't know why they were there. YEAH...so imagine my excitement. vanessa came to the rescue and told everyone to get out of the deepend and we started the 6 and under practice. those kids NEVER listen so today's practice wasn't much different...sadly... then came the 11 and ups.. *sigh* while i probably WAS really mean, i warned them before they started that if they did them wrong they were going to be swimming LOTS of fly. NO ONE LISTENS TO ME! goodness...i think people just see my mouth start to move and tune me out or something. so caroline was leading dryland today since kim was still gone due to non-driving medication and NO ONE was doing them. they finished their dryland stuff and i, with a smile on my face said, "and now you get to do a 200 butterfly warm-up!" with all the moans and growns, i didn't care. i'd warned them and they hadn't listened... i think caroline is probably the ONLY one who did the whole thing...and sadly she's not the one who needed to do it. i hate how that works out, but i told them that those FEW (very few...like caroline and jordyn and that's it) that did what they were supposed to i was really sorry, but we are a team and we succeed or fail as a team... i don't think they liked that much, but *points to face* does this look like a face that cares?! I THINK NOT!!! *disappointed face*
after practice, though, jordyn and i got to talk for about an hour. because of my bitchiness today, i'm "welcome" on the team! then she told me about how she was talking to caroline and they joked with vanessa about how they were going to suck me into the c-5. i ALSO told them about matt today...and how i can't stay late friday cuz...well...*tehe* jordyn asked when i was going to bring him up so they could "approve" of him. i love this team!!! :-D
chris leaves tomorrow for his cruise so i stopped by...oh...wait...before that... ok, so SOME of you know how terrified i am of driving in the rain. like, a LITTLE rain freaks me out a bit... sooo...i started driving home from practice tonight and it starts POURING. not pouring...i mean POOOOOOURING! i couldn't seen anything in front of me even with poor connie's wipers going as fast as they could. (and there were some idiots on the road without their lights on...) i called david to tell him i'd be late and almost wanted to have him as my daddy to drive out and pick me up. i was SOOO scared! i don't handle the rain very well... but i ended up driving home anyway...scared as i was...
so i'm driving...in the rain...and got a call from chris. since it WAS raining i didn't answer but listened to the voicemail and it was ann saying "come over chris wants to say bye"...so i did! i hung out there for about an hour...talking about my favorite subjects... then i left cuz i was STARVING because all i'd had to eat up to that point was breakfast so i came home, had "tacos" and dad's birthday cake and...yeah.
then i came upstairs to take a shower and kaleb called and we talked until my phone died...YAY!!!

(got this from my mom this morning...thought i'd pass it on this way...i hate chain letters...)
I sat under an oak tree in Wyoming on a summer day, drinking iced tea and visiting with my mother. "Don't forget your girlfriends!", Mother advised, clinking the ice cubes in her glass. No matter how much you love your husband, you are still going to need girlfriends. Remember to go places with them now and then; and do things with them, even when you don't necessarily want to. And remember that girlfriends are not only friends, but sisters, daughters, mothers, grandmothers and other relatives too. Women supporting and relating to other women is our responsibility and our gift. "What a funny piece of advice," I thought. "Hadn't I just gotten married? Hadn't I just joined the couple-world? I was now a married woman, for goodness sake, not some young girl who needed friends!"
But I listened to my Mom. I kept in contact with my girlfriends and even found some new ones along the way. As the years tumbled by, one after another, I gradually came to understand that Mom really knew what she was talking about!
Here is what I know about girlfriends:
***girlfriends bring casseroles and scrub your bathroom when you need help
***girlfriends keep your children and your secrets
***girlfriends give advice when you ask, sometimes you take it and sometimes you don't
***girlfriends don't always tell you you're right, but they usually tell the truth
***girlfriends still love you, even when they disagree with your choices
***girlfriends laugh with you and don't need canned jokes to start the laughter
***girlfriends pull you out of jams
***girlfriends don't keep a calendar of who hosted the other's last big party
***girlfriends will celebrate for your son or daughter when they get married or have a baby...in whichever order that happens
***girlfriends are there for you in an instant
***girlfriends are there when the hard times come
***girlfriends listen when you lose a job or a friend
***girlfriends listen when your children break your heart
***girlfriends listen when your parents' minds and bodies fail
My daughters, sisters, family, and friends bless my life! When we began this adventure, we had no idea of the incredible joys or sorrows that lay ahead. Nor did we know how much we would need each other..... Pass this on to your girlfriends/sisters/daughters.. I just did!
Read the next 2 lines very slowly and let it sink in...
If God brings you to it,
He will bring you through it.

wow...ok guys. i just want to clarify for some people... not that there's been a lot of confusion, but for those few of you who have been confused, chris edman and i are JUST friends. we're not getting back together by ANY means. that's over...for good. I'M DATING MATT NOW and am MORE than glad about that; he's dating leighanne and he's MORE than glad about that. we're just going to try to rebuild some kind of friendship so we can stay in each other's lives...since we've been there for each other through EVERYTHING! so...i hope that clears it all up. anyway, if you sent me a message last night and i didn't respond, it's not because i don't like you. i restarted my computer and then went to bed and TOTALLY forgot to put up an away message. amazing how when i'm NOT at my computer i get more messages than when i'm sitting here for HOURS on end. *sigh* oh well... today's a lazy day, i think (as i sit here in my towel). i may go up to the pool early today to swim laps before we do private lessons! oh, and for all of you who told me to tell my dad happy birthday, i did and he really appreciated it. (erin, he wanted to know why you weren't over here celebrating with us!)

well...i got a LOT more done today than i thought i could...in the span of about 3 hrs.
first i took my shower, then was headed down steubner towards spring cypress (to go to the bank) and decided that while i was ON THE WAY, i'd stop and pick up mom's dress. then i went to hallmark to get dad's birthday cards (one from the kids, one from me) and to the bank to drop off my check. i stopped at randalls (to get birthday balloons) and nationwide (to drop off my grades for my GOOD STUDENT DISCOUNT) on the way home. completing my square, i stopped at baskin robbins to get dad's cake and, turns out, they didn't have the one i wanted. the guy said it would take 24 hrs to make the cake and everything and i told him that i needed it for today and everything and that it was alright, i'd just go somewhere else. he told me that if i wrote down my name, number and what i wanted it to say, he'd make it RIGHT THEN and it'd be done in 2 hrs. so at 2 i'm gunna go pick the cake up from baskin robins. anyway, i came home after baskin robins and put dad's birthday stuff into the bag i bought, wrapped the balloons around his chair, set up some stuff i bought a while ago and headed off to the Y to finish filling out my paperwork for rehire. i got there around 11:45 and it took me 45 minutes to finish the whole thing. then i went to foleys to return a dress my mom bought that my dad didn't think "flattered her figure" and ran to the foleys mens department to get shirts for my dad. i ended up getting 4 of them (hehe...wait til they see the bill!!!) and then came home. on the way home i stopped at subway to grab me a sandwich and NOW I'M HOME, sub in my tummy and daddy's gift totally finished. all i have to do now is pick up the cake, take out the steak to thaw and...yeah! i'm starting to wonder if we're going to have practice or not today. the weather right NOW is pretty yucky, but it may clear up before 3:30...we'll see, though, right?!
kim got her wisdom teeth out today. i hope she feels better soon! pooor kim...
so...i think i got everything done that i had to do. ooooh...and i requested a medicine refill online, so i got the pill thing under control. i didn't CLEAN connie, but i DID pick up some of the stuff in the backseat. there's still lots of stuff, but...yeah... my room, however...that's a different story. i'm gunna go do that after i pick up the cake...or that's the plan...

awww...i just got a phone call from the president of the navasota team and he asked if i was still interested in coaching for them because he was REALLY interested in having me but he had lost my number and just got in touch with phil tonight and was hoping it wasn't too late to call me. i wish i could have gone and worked in college station this summer... it would have been really nice to work with phil again. but at the same time, if i was in college station then i couldn't have been here with ann during all this stuff, things with matt would REALLY suck (cuz i wouldn't get to see him until july and then i'd only get to see him for a month and a half before going back up to school) and...yeah.
speaking of phil...he's supposed to graduate in august which means i might get to go to his graduation (since it's the same weekend as doug and jen's wedding)! my first a&m wedding will be for an old coach, not for someone in my family. kelley, rob, and jen have all graduated from there and i have YET to be to one. maybe phil will be my first?! i gotta make him cookies for next time i see him, though...CAN'T FORGET!!!
i know...i REALLY need to stop blogging...i have way too many posts on this thing...

i'm tired...and my throat hurts...and my ear hurts...and i'm fat.
so i was asking my mom about the orange juice that she buys...
me: do we really go through one of these a day?
mom: well...at LEAST 2 every three days.
me: oh. ok.
mom: the reason i only bought two this time was because i couldn't reach anymore.
i guess you have to know my mom... i can see her crawling through the freezer section of the grocery store trying to get more OJ for her daughter.
matt and i decided today that it's april 26. YAY!

today's song of the day...
Texas Angel
Honeybrowne
Well I’m sitting here all alone
Wondering how you are
And the thoughts of you are spinning round my head
Like wheels on a car
And I wish you were beside me
Dreaming up at the stars
Well the times that we had together
They just blew me away
And I think about your soft green eyes
Every single day
And how my plans for us just seem to fall
And fade into gray
I guess I didn’t see it coming
How could I have been so blind
And as I cry myself to sleep
I wonder do I ever cross your mind
So won’t you smile for me my Texas Angel
It’ll be alright
You just lay your head beside me
And dream of me tonight
And I promise I’ll watch over you
Till the morning light
Now I’m headed back to the west coast
Looking for my soul
Trying to mend the pieces that shattered years before
And the ocean takes my pain away
As it comes rolling ashore
So if you see me walking down the street
Baby, don’t turn away
I just want to see your smiling face
Looking my way
And I never want to see you go
See you go away
So won’t you smile for me my Texas Angel
It’ll be alright
You just lay your head beside me
And baby just hold me tight
And I promise I’ll watch over you
Till the morning light

oh my, i love my best friend. ok, so i'm over at ann's right now "babysitting her", right? yeah...haha... well, she needed me to get her the crutches cuz she needed to potty and SOMETHING happened (i'm still blaming it 100% on allison cuz i don't think it's my fault at all) and we started laughing about something and i told ann to be careful or she'd pee her pants so...oh man. I LOVE YOU ANN! who else can i laugh with so hard i make us pee?!
WHERE IS HE?! oh my goodness...i don't think i can take it too much longer...*sigh* if i see ONE more (ann, you know what i'm talking about) then i think i'm gunna scream!
anyway, back to my job as a babysitter...LOVE Y'ALL!!

YAY for the first meet being over. ok, so i went to sleep last night around 1:30, woke up at 6, got to memorial northwest by 6:50, warmed the kids up at 7:45, meet "started" at 8:45...and ended at 2:45. that's one LONG meet. but i think we won. we all left before the score was finalized, but even if we didn't win, it was a good meet. mnw is a REALLY great host. they had bottled water for us, a "coach's tent", were extremely friendly...great first team to swim (and coach against). but i can't say i would have expected anything less from their coach. she's such a nice lady. when she saw me today, she said hi and everything then turned to vanessa (our head coach) and said, "i wanted her to coach for me, so you got lucky with this one," *wink*. yeah...anyway... ok, i have to get to ann's cuz i'm supposed to be "babysitting" for her and i need to jump in the shower first (cuz i a SMELLY girl right now). i'll write more when i get a chance!
HAVE FUN AT PROM, APE, AND AFTER APE!!! :-D

well kids, i think it's official. i believe science and it's statement that you start to act like those people you constantly surround yourself with. now don't get me wrong, i LOVE my roommate more than anything but...she's rubbed off on me. today i went looking around my house for my purple swim suit (since the rest of them were in college station) and couldn't find it so i went out and bought a new one (one that i think is VERY cute, might i add). well, i'm talking to matt on the phone tonight (6 days, by the way...for those of you helping me keep track...not that i need it) while i was cooking pasta and showed robert my new suit and explained to him why i bought it and he was like "did you look on the other side of the door?" ...of course i did...NOT! yeah...so then he started making fun of me ("4.0, eh?!") and matt, the sweetheart that he is, JOINED IN?!?! yeah...wow...what the boyfriend...*sigh* j/k. crazy as it sounds, i LOVE it...such the attention hog ;)
on to a different topic... chris e and i saw each other today...for the first time since easter...and the big separation...and the harsh words...and rude comments... i'm not really sure what that means...i just needed to blog it.
I GOT THE GOODEST MAN IN THE WORLD!!! hehe...instead of doing something fun, he ran errands with me tonight...for 77 minutes!!!! he went with me to kroger, made fun of me for not being able to find the pasta (it was right in front of me he kept saying), helped me remember what else i needed for the meet, told me where to go to get a stopwatch for tomorrow, didn't make me go into wal-mart alone at 11:00 at night, directed me around wal-mart looking for the stopwatch, thanked the cashier for me, drove me home, helped me unload the car, started the water boiling for me, went with me to take out the trash, then stirred pasta with me. *sigh* what a guy!!! :-D
well, the first meet's tomorrow...and my alarm is going off at 6:00 so i REALLY should get to bed so i'm not a...poopis tomorrow.
countdown:
MATT: 6 DAYS
ERIN: 9 DAYS

so i think tonight was a night of reunions. i talked to people i haven't talked to in a LONG time tonight. keri dillard, for instance...wow. it was nice to get "caught up" on her life, though. it's sad about her and sammy though... seems as though all 5 of us have gone our separate ways. jacob piranio...WOW! man... i don't even know what to say. it's been FOREVER since the last time i really got to talk to him. it was nice to tonight, though. and kevin robinson. sweetie, don't give up on girls. we may all be shallow dogs, but...well...there's one out there for you. you may have to wait a little while for her, but... you WILL find her. just...don't look so hard, perhaps. make her come to you instead of the other way around for a change.
i wish at school i had half of what i have at home with guys. i mean...at HOME i have soo many guy friends, always someone to talk to about whatever the heck is on my mind. at school...i don't have anyone. i can't tell any guys how i feel about anything. roadtrip, for instance... i REALLY would have liked to just...spill the beans about that. and the officer stuff for fanatics for next year?! yeah...but, no. no guy up there for me to run to when i need that stupid support and...*ugh* it sucks. the girls that i was friends with in high school aren't as close as the guys...i wonder why that is...

"Count Me In"
Deana Carter
Could there be a different ending
To the same old story
Cause you're not the first to say
You're gonna be there for me
I need to know what's in your heart
Can you finish what you start
How can I be sure I won't be sorry
If heartaches and tears and shadows of doubt
Are part of the deal, you can count me out
But if you're talking about a game I can win
You can count me in
When you tell me you're the one
I've always needed
You don't know how much I'm wanting
To believe it
But I've heard it all before
Now I'm needing somthing more
A promise is no good if you can't keep it
If heartaches and tears and shadows of doubt
Are part of the deal you can count me out
But if you're talking about a game I can win
You can count me in

wow...i just got off the phone with michael wheeler. MAN that was crazy. we talked for, like, an hour and 45 minutes! i miss talking to people on the phone... anyway, that was really nice, thanks michael!
just to clarify, my mom was driving right by klein when the tornado "hit down" and she said that the wind was REALLY strong but she didn't think anything actually touched down.
i'm tired...but grades come out in 2 hrs...so i feel like i should stay up...
10:04 PM

BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR!!!! ok, so we didn't have practice today...and i was hoping we wouldn't. i was talking to chris about it and said "man, i wish it would just thunder and rain til, like, 5:30." yeah...CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR!!! rob called me about 5:45 asking where i was (at ann's) and if i was safe (of course) and told me that there was a tornado touch down at klein high school (for those of you who don't know, that's right across the street from my house), one at louetta and kuykendaul, one at 249 and one on 1960. those are all right around my house...no fun. but i think we're safe now. nothing else is supposed to come...not til later, at least.
mom's calling me to dinner, but when i get back, i'll tell you about my day!! :-D (i know, you're just SOO excited *hehe*)
ok, back from dinner and ice cream!
so this morning i woke up around 8:30 and straightened my hair then got dressed and headed off to the bank to open a checking account. as i was driving, chris called me and wanted to know when i wanted to get together, but i wasn't finished (hadn't even started) the bank stuff so...yeah. anyway, i got that taken care of and everything then went and picked him up. we went to randall's, got ann some flowers (daisies, carnations and the purple baby's breath stuff), a nice pooh "get well soon" balloon, poster board (for a card), and a cake mix with icing. off to my house to but it all together... so we put the flowers in the vase that my v-day flowers from matt (thanks, sweetie) came in and tied the balloon around it and started on the cake. while the cake was baking, we came up to my room and searched for pictures of rubber ducks for her card and then chris "fixed" bob. THANKS, CHRIS!!! i don't think we deleted anything i'm gunna need...i think we're safe. but i DID get some crazy message when i started up...but i guess it's ok cuz everything's still working. anyway, so we did that then went to see ann. her surgery went really well and she was out early and got home around 1 (i think) so...yeah. that's a lot earlier than we thought she'd be home, but it's all good! :-D so we brought our stuff over there then some guy brought over this thing that's gunna keep her leg moving so it doesn't atrophy and...IT'S SOO COOL!!!! THAT'S WHAT I WANNA DO WHEN I GROW UP!!! man...it's just...i think it's the coolest thing ever! ok, so chris and i were STARVING so we took a drink order from ann and went to paul's pizza for some lunch. we both got calzones (YUM YUM) and i brought half of mine home for ann so she could have it when she felt up to eating "real food" again. then we stopped at sonic to get ann a route 44 vanilla dr. pepper. when we got home, she was asleep again so we just made ourselves at home (like we tend to do now) and...yeah. that's pretty much how that stuff went.
i just got a call from the Y saying that i passed my pee test and i have an appointment for monday at noon to go fill out all the rest of my paperwork so i can start working whenever someone needs my assistance. YAY!!!
"life is like a cookie..."
david: i wish tomorrow was friday...
me: tomorrow IS friday!
mom: your wish just came true! (with her goofy grin)
david: i wish tomorrow was saturday...

DAGNABBIT!!! have you ever gone to try to read an AIM conversation but get a little "disoriented" and instead of scrolling up you hit the "X"?! yeah...i hate that. *ARGH* oh well...i guess i won't read all that stuff. annnnyway, ann's in surgery right now. please pray for a fast, quick, safe recovery and that she comes out easily. chris and i are getting together today for...shtuff! YAY!!! *tehe tehe*
i just rolled out of bed so i really don't have anything to say, but thought i'd blog anyway. it's supposed to be yucky weather the rest of the week (and through the weekend) so i'm kinna wondering about this practice we're supposed to be having. it's going to be ONE INTERESTING meet. we really REALLY need to practice relays cuz...yeah. i...yeah. that's just something we need to work on. that and sprints. just...not too many, but...yeah. *if only i were head coach...*
i had so many wonderful dreams last night *dreamy eyed*. they were so great that i thought NEXT friday was tomorrow...which makes me sad to realize that i still have another week, but i guess that gives me more time to dream about it. (wow...i psychotic...fear for him. POOR GUY!!! i feel sorry for you...) it's gunna be *perfect*!!!!
well, i think i'm going to go make my bed, take a shower, attempt to straighten my hair (although i'm not sure why i would do that considering the YUCKY weather...), head off to the bank, wait for chris to call... it's going to be a great day (but a yucky one).
8:52 AM

well...ann's surgery is in about 6 hrs. GOOD LUCK, SWEETIE!!! i love you and i'll be there as soon as i get home from picking up my dad from work.
i have the best roommate/friend! erin, i'm SOOO sorry about tonight but i PROMISE we're gunna get together on the 24th...if you and andrew are up for it. i'll be there whether everyone else comes or not. i miss you SOOO much and NEED some "erin/miree time". i'm gunna give you SUCH a big hug when i see ya...cuz i know you're not a hugger. ;) anyway...for those of you who don't know what happened... we were supposed to get together for dinner tonight but...*sigh* you know how my parents are. and ann's didn't want her to go out cuz of the surgery so we rescheduled...that way andrew and matt can come along (if they're interested). thanks for being so understanding...it's gunna be great to see you again...it's been too long...
ok, so we went to starbucks tonight since we didn't get to go to the cheesecake factory and the guy that checked us out (haha...i love how that sounds) was REALLY nice. we were just...being us and...*awww* he was a sweetie. he even gave me extra whipped cream without making me pay for it...and let me pay in quarters... awww...AND he gave us free samples of the strawberries and cream new coffee-less drink. *YUM* sooo good. if you like strawberries, try mine...if i ever decide to get it...
EIGHT DAYS!!!! dang...i can't believe it's coming so soon...i think i'm starting to get really nervous...

"If You Were Mine"
Cyndi Thompson
If you were mine
I would celebrate like
Everyday was Christmas
If you were mine
I would love you like
It's nobody's business
I would give you everything I had
I would treat you right
I would make you laugh
Baby I would smile forever
If you were mine
If you were mine
Baby every night would be
A romance novel
If you were mine
I would quench your thirst
Like a tall glass of water
You would be my one desire
I would kiss you like a house on fire
Baby I would burn like crazy
If you were mine
If you were mine
If you were mine
Ohh, yeah
You're everything I can't resist
Just to hear your voice is bliss
It is
Yeah, it is
If you were mine I'd shout it out
We'd show the world what love's about
We'd never sleep in a big old bed
We'd just kiss and kiss and kiss instead
If you were mine I would be complete
And nothin' would be missin' baby
If you were mine
If only you were mine

*sigh* dang it's lonely here. i mean...don't get me wrong, with chris and ann home...and all my kiddos still in high school i'm not alone too much (except right now *hehe*) but...yeah. [thought from last night that i wanted to blog but didn't because...yeah...] i just want some guy to wanna hold my hand while we sit through a band concert; i want some guy to give me a hug; i want some guy to wanna put his arm around me whether he does it or not; i want some guy to wanna hold me...i just...i want it all. i know, i know...call me picky, call me needy, but that's me. MAN i hope i'm not as bad as i'm making myself sound right now...
12:56 PM

YAY YAY YAY!!! i just got back from the YMCA. i filled out my first run of paperwork and drove to tomball and took my pee test then went back to drop off the little form and now i'm home. how great is that?! two jobs. *cha-ching* (j/k)
man, i thought i had something to write but it looks like i'm pretty...thoughtless right now.
oh, right... ok, so i was at the shell station getting gas (cuz i was almost out) and i saw a green minivan drive up. looked EXACTLY like the edmans so i, of course, have to look. mr. edman got out and went into the store. i was just going to go on my merry little way pretending nothing had ever happened but when i told the darned pump that i wanted a receipt, it told me to go inside. so i went inside. MR. EDMAN! *hehe* i told him that i got a job for londonderry, he said too bad we're not swimming against each other (and i thought..no, it's probably a good thing because...yeah) and i told him that londonderry swims giammalva and he got a little laugh out of that. anyway, he told me that he was going to pick up chris from school so i told him to tell chris i said hi...*sigh* i still...yeah. oh well...life goes on. i've moved on...and i'm glad i have. i just wish things didn't end the way they did but maybe it was for the better. i just hope if we should meet each other on the street (or at a swim meet) we can carry on a decent conversation and it not be incredibly awkward and uncomfortable. but that's probably, still, too much to ask.
and on that note i'm going to go take a shower cuz kaleb just told me that i'm always smelly...MEANY HEAD!!! :(
12:20 PM

sorry, kiddos. i was going to write last night but then david had to use my computer for a science project that is due today...that he just started last night when i got home from the concert (aka-11:00). so...yeah. i had SOO much to write about, too... *sigh* well, CHRIS AND ANN ARE HOME!! so now we're just waiting on matt...then it's gunna be the beginning of the greatest summer of my life! how wonderful, i know!
we're supposed to be getting together with erin tonight for dinner, but i can't *ever* get a hold of her, so i'm starting to think THAT idea's dead. i'll try a few more times but after that, i'm gunna drop it, i think. I STILL LOVE YOU, THOUGH, ERIN... you just need to answer your phone more...
as soon as chris and matt are home together (since chris leaves again before matt gets home) y'all are GOING to eat that spam you bought over christmas break. "it's good. it's really good! we're going to go eat it in the middle of the movie theater." yeah...RIIIIGHT. well, i wanna see it. (not at the movies, just y'all eating it.) infact, i love y'all soo much that i'm going to go out and buy y'all some new stuff since the old one's probably got stuff growing on it from sitting in your glove box... ONE fork, chris...a BIG one, too... *hehe* i'm soo demanding, aren't i?!
the concert was nice last night. my feet hurt after those darn shoes. i almost fell out of them walking back from talking to mina. i don't think corinne likes me much...she yelled at me...like everyone else has...i feel like a bad friend...
I LOVE BEING HOME!!! monica emailed me today (or i got it today). we're gunna HAVE to get together sometime soon, k?! *sigh* i LOVE seeing people after being seculuded from everyone for so long.
GUESS WHAT, KIDS?!?!?!?!?!?! NINE DAYS UNTIL MATT COMES HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (can't tell that i'm excited, can you?) oh, ann...you need to change my phone ;)

dang the stupid thunder. it needs to wait about 4 hrs and 15 minutes and THEN come again...and stay for a nice...2 hrs at least. i don't wanna get in the water with the 7-8 age group cuz then i'll be all yucky when i get dressed for the concert. *sigh* oh well...i guess it's all in a days work. hehe... ok, so there's a guy "on" the swim team who looks REALLY familiar (like from klein) but i don't know why i would have known him. he goes to klein (yeah...i know), but...yeah. he wasn't in band and you ALL know that i don't know "non-band" people unless they were friends with someone in band and made many band hall appearances...and even still, i probably didn't know them. anyway, i keep thinking i should just look him up in the year book (cuz i think he's a sr this year) but...oh...i'm too lazy...
CHRIS AND ANN COME HOME TODAY!!!!!! :-D (can you tell i'm a little excited?!)

YAY for getting all my stuff outta the hallway and outta my room (into the attic) so i can go out with ann and chris tomorrow night!!!
ok, so i made my bed this morning when i got up (cuz pillows were falling on my from all directions) and you'll NEVER guess how many pillows and stuffed animals i have on my bed right now. ok, guess anyway...please?...just guess... ok, since you're not very good at this game, i'll just tell you. i have FOURTEEN pillows and TEN stuffed animals on my bed right now...which leaves a nice 2 square foot area for me to sleep...without pulling everything off. at least i cleaned off my chair so i'm not going to be sharing that little bitty area with the dog. he's been a stinky one recently...don't really want him on my bed anyway!
i'm sooo tired of doing laundry...i think i did 11 loads today...and one's still in the washer as i write. ALL day, i'm telling you.
my list of things to do tomorrow is WAY too long for me to get it all done, i'm afraid, but it'll be nice to try anyway. i'm excited about picking up my pants (SOOO NICE!), going to the Y (if i can get a hold of cary), and opening another bank account (not really)... *sigh* soo much to do, soo little time...
at least i get to see chris and ann tomorrow, though (...er...that's the plan of the moment) and then on WEDNESDAY i get to see ERIN JONES!!! *hehe* :-D i miss my erin... soon...very soon...
ok, i'm gunna go jump in the shower to get outta this suit...and wash my hair and then i'll brush my little toothies and i'll hit the sac cuz it looks like tomorrow's gunna be another early morning and LONG (and full) day. *muah* to all!!!

-10 things i hate about you
SUCH the greatest movie!!!
9:05 AM

i hate the way you talk to me
and the way you cut your hair
i hate the way you drive my car
i hate it when you stare
i hate your big, dumb combat boots
and the way you read my mind
i hate you so much it makes me sick
it even makes me rhyme
i hate the way you're always right
i hate it when you lie
i hate it when you make me laugh
even more so when you make me cry
i hate it when you're not around
and the fact that you didn't call
but mostly i hate the way i don't hate you
not even close
not even a little bit
not even at all.
-10 things i hate about you

man...i LOVE my shoulders!
ok, so i'm at kroger this morning (actually, just got back) and while i was going through the U-SCAN some lady walked up to me and asked "do you swim? because you should if you don't. your shoulders are so big and broad. you'd be a really good swimmer!" so, i told her i used to and she wasn't surprised at all. then she proceeded to tell me how her son's a swimmer and all his girlfriends are just so cute. (i'm assuming she was incisting that his girlfriends aren't swimmers...which now makes me wonder if big shoulders is a good thing or a bad thing...)
oh, by the way...did i tell you i love my shoulders?! if there was one thing about myself i'd never want to change...it'd be my shoulders (despite all the problems they've given me over the years). i've gotten more comments on my shoulders over the years than anything else. amazing... some guy once asked if i was a softball player or a swimmer because i had big, muscular shoulders (yes, kids...that was when i was still swimming year round, but...whatever). YAY!!! I LOVE MY SHOULDERS!!!

well, while reading brandon's blog tonight, i stumbled across this essay writen about the "nice guys" and...all that stuff. all i can say is, i totally agree. and i think every girl should, at least, be exposed to this sort of essay to realize what it's saying...and how the "nice guy" feels. BUT...at the same time...there's the "just friends" girl. and she feels the same way. the one you complain about girls to. the one you spend your every waking hour with but then SWEAR y'all are "just friends". the one you don't want to date because it could ruin your friendship. just...yeah! think about it...all of you...

well, looks like blog is trying to become too much like xanga. i HATE this new setup (just so everyone knows). man, it's major crap if you ask me. what's with the whole profile/picture thing?! if i wanted that, i'd go with xanga not with blogger. HELLO!! HELLO!! (erin) enough about that...
DON'T BE A BITCH, DAMN IT!!! if you knew half of how lucky you are to have him...how could you do that to him? you're SOO lucky that he's sat and put up with your crap this long. just you wait...i REALLY am going to tell you how i feel about this. but MORE than that (more than that)...how could you pretend that it's all ok? IT'S NOT FREAKING OK!!! don't piss me off, bitch...don't you DARE go there. that's something you're going to regret for the rest of your life. (not pissing me off, treating him like dirt.) there's a GREAT song that pretty much says how i feel about you right now. i can't remember the name of the song or i'd look up the lyrics and post them in here for you to read but it's something about how i can't wait for someone to treat you the way you've treated other people but i only wish i could be there to see your heart be broken...
i know, i know...this is not a very "like me" post, but...once again, it's something that needs to be said. poor darling is sitting there with his heart shattered to pieces and you could care less. it's all about you, isn't it? REALLY sad when his mom asks to talk to me about it...REALLY sad. you should think about that... i hope he does what he should do and dumps you right on your face. *herumph*
ok, i'm sorry...i feel better now. i'm sure the person this post goes out to NEVER reads this because...well...yeah, and that's probably a good thing, but...*UGH*
chris:2 days
matt:12 days
chris and i are gunna go to the concert together tuesday night!!! :-D i'm going to pick him up on my way home from practice (which means i have to remmeber REAL clothes...)
9:09 PM

well, i went to college station (yes, again) today to help move jen from apartment A to B. i didn't get to do very much...not strong enough...always in the way... sometimes i just want to hate myself for things like that, but...oh well...i guess that's just how i am. damn...one of these days i'm NOT going to be in the way and i'm actually going to be good for someone somewhere...i hope...
i threw up tonight. i'm not really sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing, but...i did it nevertheless. GROSS, but something that i've needed to do for...oh...a LONG time. *sigh* it's such an amazing feeling to not beable to stand the pain any longer...to not be able to stand or walk or look at food (and i went out to dinner...bar b q...)...to just want to die you hurt so badly and not but 2 minutes later (once it's outta you) to feel like you've never felt better (except the nastiness in your mouth and on your hand...and outside your car...). however, that feeling only lasts until the NEXT ouchy comes along...
i FINALLY got to talk to matt tonight...it's really nice to...well...yeah. *butterflies* i miss him soo much...it's going to be a great summer as long as i don't screw things up... haha...who am i kidding?! i screw everything up. i'm SUCH a hypocrite, but at least in my last blog i noted that it was just as my to me as the next guy/girl. i just...i hope he knows how much i like him and how much i really want this to work. and i hope he's the guy that won't let me push him away...at least not too far... but he's pretty good about putting me in my place which is something no one has ever SERIOUSLY done to me before. but it's a REALLY good thing, so i think that's going to be a major positive...if things work out...and if i don't screw up...
oh...the meet went well. we don't have any legal 7-8 breaststrokers but...man...we only have 5 days to get at LEAST one legal for the medly relay...
chris: TWO DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!

well, it's nice to be home again...this time for good. i moved out at 1:30...VERY nice... I MISS ERIN, though. just a few days, though...it'll be good...i hope. anyway, so i had so much to blog about and now i just...(a) don't feel like it and (b) can't remember it. i went to banquet...it was nice seeing everyone again...
ok. i know this is going to be a really "bitchy" blog, but get over it... alright. if you've got a GREAT guy...don't push him away, don't be a jerk, don't go to a dance with another guy, don't take advantage of him, don't walk all over him...he's GREAT! (i know, i know...this post is just as much-if not more-for me as it is for the next girl, but it needs to be said.) this doesn't really apply to anyone specifically, but if you read this and think i'm talking about you then chances are i am. i just...i'm sick of seeing guys that i really care about being hurt by some girl that he thinks is perfect...someone that he cares SOOO much for that he'd give anything to make her happy. and, don't get me wrong, that goes both ways. girls are by NO means the one ones that do it. guys...don't push her away or be a jerk to her or go to a dance with someone else or take advantage of her or walk all over her. she's gunna leave you...and she's going to leave you for good. once she's out of your life for good you're going to realize just what you had with her and then you're going to regret it all...but (from personal experience) it's going to be too late and he'll be gone...and he'll want nothing to do with you...and it's gunna suck. so safe yourselves the heart ache...just...treat each other right.
and with that said...i'm going to bed because i have to be at the londonderry pool for 7:45 tomorrow morning...and i'm tired because i haven't had much sleep the past few nights. i'll blog more later...if i can think of something worthy of blogging.
oh...and one more thing... don't be ashamed of your boyfriend/girlfriend. if you don't feel like you could shout it out from the rooftop, chances are...it's not right. don't hide it because you're just going to end up hurting yourself and the other person....
I HAVE A BOYFRIEND!!!! and i'm not one bit ashamed to say it and you shouldn't be either...

i'm REALLY not excited about it, but i'm heading back to school today... tomorrow by 1:30 i have to have ALL of my stuff out of the room and have everything in the room looking exactly the way it was when i moved in last august...WHAT HAPPENS IF I DON'T HAVE IT ALL READY!? yeah...i can't move out...which means i'll miss banquet (sorry kiddos) and i also run the chance of missing the swim meet on saturday. NOT good... but it shouldn't be too too hard. i'm just gunna put all the big stuff (like carpet and whatever else...hang-up clothes, etc.) tonight and then i'll just add the rest of the small stuff tomorrow...or that's the plan. anyway...i'm going to go make some more review sheets for anatomy then head on outta here!!

i stole this from erin...
Signs of SBOS (Semester Burn-Out Syndrome):
*you're so tired, that now you answer the phone, "Hell" instead of Hello.
*when your parents inquire about your grades, you sing the Cookie Monster song: "C is for cookie, that's good enough for me..."
*you've got so much on your mind, you've forgotten how to pee.
*you think about how relaxing it would be if you were in jail right now!
*your favorite phrase is "I don't give a s#%$!!"
*you have spent more time figuring out that you only need a 54% on the final to pass than the time you have actually spent studying.
*when your absence exceeds your attendance.
*when your study schedule is based on the rationale that you "might" actually die before the test!

don't you just hate it when you wake up randomly throughout the night and can't go back to sleep? I CAN'T SLEEP TONIGHT!!! i've been tossing and turning all night and can't figure out why. maybe it's because i'm not under the covers, so i take them off...doesn't help. maybe it's because i don't want my pillow, so i move it...doesn't help. maybe it's because i went to bed WAY earlier last night than i have in a LONG time, so i'm awake...does it help?! *sigh* dutch keeps coming in and out jumping on me each time...but i'm still not tired. perhaps i'm stressing about this darn anatomy final that i have tomorrow...that i haven't really been able to focus long enough to study for... well, i'm going to go BACK to my bed....hopefully able to get a little sleep. my stomach hurts...maybe that's part of it...or maybe, just maybe i'm nervous...and not about anything i should be particularly nervous about...but, then again, i haven't seen him in a while, so...yeah...

I MISS MY ROOMMATE!!! but i'll get to see her tomorrow...which is exciting!!!! YAY!!!

well...i started my job (as an assistant swim coach for londonderry) yesterday and was going to blog about it but then i got too emotional about other stuff and really didn't want to blog about that stuff so i just didn't blog at all. today, however, i have a story that i have to tell...
so during all 4 of the practices we had dogs coming in and out of the pool area because vanessa picked 2 dogs up off the side of kuykendaul and brought them to the pool...that got straightened out and then some other dog came at the end of the 6 and under practice/beginning of the 11 and up practice. so we're doing dryland and this chocolate lab is charging EVERYONE while they're doing the "bear walk" and...i thought someone was going to die. then he ran out the gate and everyone got in the water for warm-up. so they're doing a 200 warm-up with the dog running along side them on the pool edge. i looked over to lane 1 (i was standing in front of lane 5) and turned to kim (story about her) and said, "that dog's going to jump in." not but maybe 10 seconds later, the dog is in the water swimming across the lane ropes causing MAJOR panic from some; everyone was trying to grab his collar to get him out but not too much worked. finally someone got him back to the edge of the pool in lane 1 and two mothers pulled him out of the water then called his owner.
i also spent about 2 hrs today working on my anatomy review. i took all the questions off past tests and typed them up as statements (10 pages long-184 statements) and then took the matching off of the final review and made them definitions. i HOPE that will help me study.
so the story about kim...i'm sure you are all wondering. *hehe* kim gibbs (the other assistant coach) and i swam for wimbledon together when we were 10. she was the breaststroker on our relay and i (i think) was the flyer or the backer. anyway, that was irrelevant... well, when i went for my interview, i saw her (hers was right after mine) and i couldn't remember her name so when i got home, i told my parents about it and was pretty sure that if SHE was interviewing there was no way i'd get the job over her, so i was kind of...decided that i wasn't going to get it. then i got the email saying that i was being offered the job and was pleasantly surprised. so i got to the pool yesterday and she was there too...which is awesome! but...yeah...that's the story...

wow. the weather today is AMAZING!!! makes me want to sit outside "tanning" all day...however, i tried to do that and study at the same time and...well...let's just say i didn't get very much anatomy done...at all. it's really hot but the breeze makes it bearable...kind of. i'm trying to get rid of the lines i have on my shoulders (from various things) before summer so i won't have a million tan lines, but i don't think it's really that important. man...the weather is AMAZING!!! not a cloud in the sky. soooo blue!!! man...it's soo nice! i wish i could be at the beach today...or at least with friends. hope those of you in san marcos are taking FULL advantage of 5 mile today!!! (if not i'm going to be VERY disappointed in you...just no more dogs, ok erin?!) alright, i cooled off...time to get back outside for some more "studying"...
GOOD LUCK ON FINALS!!!!!

well...i took a nice hot bath by candle light...i think i fell asleep... i wish i could say it made me feel tons better but then i think i'd be lying. i do, however, know how i feel (or how i'm going to tell myself i feel) so that's a good thing. we'll see what that turns out to mean... i think it just needs to come so i can stop being so...*sigh* me... haha...so much for drama-free-mamma, huh? wow...i hate drama. i hate myself... sometimes i just wish i could go away...get rid of myself...but it's easier to do that to other people than to yourself... ok...i'm depressed...haha...i should go...do something...so...i think i will...

I'M GOING HOME TODAY!!!! i'm so ready to go home. so i was originally going to keep my computer here til i come back on thursday night for my friday final, but the family computer at home isn't working right now, i think it'd be best for me to bring bob (virus-infected bob) home so (1) rob can fix the viruses and (2) i can still talk to everyone, blog, etc. while i'm home for the few days. anyway, i don't really want to have to do all that stuff the day i'm moving out. i have more time today and i think it'd be easiest to just...do it now! good idea?! i hope so... anyway, yeah. ONE MORE CLASS!!!
mike's away message today:
Why do all girls put this in their profile? ALL OF YOU GIRLS HAVE THIS IN YOUR PROFILE!
(I want to be the one he looks at,
smiles, and says to his friends... "thats her!")
Sure what a nice dream eh? It will never happen, quit getting your hopes up. Unless of course you alter your dream to make it more like this:
I want to be the one he looks at,
smiles, and says to his friends... "thats her, the bitch who made me a sandwhich"
my response!?: is it really that hard to look at "the girl", smile and say to your friends "that's her"? it's NOT like we expect you to go out of your way to say "that's my wonderful, beautiful girlfriend that i love so much and who gives me butterflies whenever we're around each other"...all we want is a "that's her." *sigh* oh well...
so today's little chain-thingy saying (the last one, might i add) is name the ten things you're more greatful for. erin wants me to post it in here, so...here i go... (haha...that used to be the name of this blog...well...almost...) IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER....
1. my family
2. my friends
3. my freedoms
4. chocolate covered strawberries
5. my health
6. common sense-i know most of you think i'm really stupid and stuff but that's ok with me. i may not be the brightest crayon in the box, but i DO have common sense. and to me, that's more important than book smarts. common sense will get me WAY farther in this world
7. MY ROOMMATE!!!! (yes, erin...you get your own)
8. stuffed animals...all of them...
9. love
10. knowing what i want to do with my life. i have a plan...a REAL plan. i know exactly what i want to do, where i want to go...it's really nice to know that kind of stuff...
feel free to blog the top ten things that you are most greatful of too!!!
