Naked teens in cars or How I Almost Got New Mooned [23 Nov 2009|06:15pm]
[ mood | cheerful ]

So Thursday I was out late at Walmart and there's wall to wall teens everywhere. I think, when the heck did I become the oldest person here other than the staff? Then I remember, oh yeah, New Moon! No wonder there's inky haired kids wearing emo chick pants everywhere. And that's the guys LOL.

I ran into a friend out in the parking lot and was chatting with her when this shady looking car full of kids pulled up beside us and they're trying to get our attention. What the heck? I try to act cool and ignore them and hope they go away. What a pack of hooligans. One kid in the back wasn't even wearing a shirt! Then the kid driving is like, "Stephanie! Stephanie!" Ok, so these kids know me?

Turns out it was this kid who's family I know from church. Him and his buddy were taking two girls to the movie. I laughed and I mockingly reprimanded them, "What are you hooligans doing? You scared me!" and I smacked Pat's car and they all laughed. The shirtless kid in the back as it turns out, getting made up by his girlfriend to look like Jacob. I askede him, "So I'm assuming you guys are team Jacob?" and he looks sheepish and says, "Yeah, well, I never read the books. My girlfriend is making me do this!" and the girl says,"Hey!" and smacks him. LOL

I told them "When I saw your shirtless friend back there I thought I was gonna get New Mooned!" They loved that.

So I saw the movie Sunday with a few girlfriends. Loved the werewolves, loved that the scenes were more complex visually. Loved creepy Dakota Fanning. The thing with the dumb movie titles was kinda stupid but funny. I'd rather go see a movie called Punchface than one called Love Spelled Backwards Is Love. When did Bella's room get all tricked out with the fancy mirror and stuff? I thought she's supposed to hate shopping.

Anyway I had fun. :)

Work has been super busy this week but at least my boss hasn't been around to hang over us and make life more miserable. Weather's been good. Got to rake leaves up a little and meet our next door neighbors. They are about our age and have a baby about my nephew's age. Really nice. I may try and make them something for Thanksgiving. Some cranberry orange scones maybe?

I am in love with Casting Crowns Peace on Earth album.

Online shopping is awesome. No fighting crowds and trying to find parking. It frees up more time to spend hanging out with family and friends.

Do you look forward to returning to work/school on Mondays or do you live for the weekend? What do you enjoy most about weekends? What do you dread most about school and/or work?

I used to really like my work. But nowadays I live for my time off. I really need to keep looking for another job. I should be happy I even have a job in times like this. But it keeps getting worse.

It's the day after Halloween & there's still zombies...oh wait that's just me. Braaains... [01 Nov 2009|04:27pm]
[ mood | lazy ]

We had a million kids here on Beggar's Night! It was awesome. I even had about the right amount of candy. Well, I would have if Deanna's neice Aubrey hadn't have showed up. She looked so cute and I knew I wouln't have enough if another big band of kids came so I turned off the porch light and dumped the rest into her pumpkin. :)

It's so beautiful outside and what did I do this afternoon? Laid on the couch and watched this documentary of a 12 year old girl named Emily Hagin who filmed and produced a zombie movie called Pathogen with friends and family helping her. What a star! I wish I were only half so motivated at that age. I wish I were half as motivated now. I don't feel like getting off the couch.

Yay Halloweenies. :) [26 Oct 2009|11:28am]
[ mood | content ]

This weekend the weather has been beautiful. Sunday I took a break and went to visit my nephew a bit. My Mom was watching him while my sister and her husband were celebrating their first anniversary. I have new pics but still trying to figure out system at the new place so I have no uploads. I have a pic of Sam dressed as a pumpkin and he has kind of a stoned sleepy expression in the pic. It's hilarious and I love it. Hee hee

We went out to the Medieval Faire to the Haunted Halloween Knights and enjoyed a spook ride, lots of witches and vampires jumping out...and we walked the Haunted Maze and enjoyed hot cider. No One was around by the bouncy Castle so we sent our friend Jeremey thru. Then me, Steven and Dave waited for him on the other side with padded boffer weapons. Then we decided smacking each other with boffer weapons was fun so we got in the ring and smacked each other silly! I so want a set of those for when Steven and I are having, um, discussions. LOL Good marital therapy.

Admission to spooky festival: 17 dollars.
Funnel cake and hot cider: 7 dollars.
Making your own fun w/o hurting anybody: priceless.

And my heavy winter cloak kept me nice and toasty all night. Yay for garb comfyness!

Steven worked on getting the internet here at the new place. It's not perfect, but at least I'm on the internet in the kitchen here and not down at the public library sitting next to weird coughing guy or loud little kids. Maybe that's why my last post had a less than optimistic feel? Heh.

Getting paid does help that outlook though. It's not much but if we watch it for a while and cross our fingers...

We were going to go down to the medieval faire for Halloween Knights but of course it's pouring down rain. So the plan is to try Sunday. I'm tired of working, packing, moving, cooking and cleaning. I want to get dressed up in my warmest garb complete with hooded cloak, wander around chatting with people and warming my hands with something hot and spicy to drink. And taking a haunted hayride around the park while snuggling with my hubby.

I really don't wanna get drizzled on. It's cold and I don't want to risk getting sick. So tonight I'm relaxing at home.

Writer's Block: So funny I forgot to laugh [23 Oct 2009|04:33pm]

If a friend cracks a corny joke, do you force yourself to laugh politely? What about if it's your boss or teacher? Do you get annoyed if someone else pretends to be amused?

Sometimes corny jokes make me laugh the hardest. I love dorky jokes most times. If it's not funny to me though I just smile in a puzzled fashion or bark out a staccato 'Ha!' and that's it.

People should not be allowed to chain vicious dogs who want to chew your face off in the beds of their trucks. And then take them places to frighten unsuspecting people walking by minding their own business. I nearly got my nose taken off in the grocery store parking lot. Hello?!?!?! Frigging moron.

Writer's Block: Sick day [05 Oct 2009|12:09pm]

When you get sick, do you prefer to go it alone or be doted upon by a friend, partner, or parent? Do you usually go to work or school or stay home?


View 1260 Answers

Most times when I'm sick I'm stuck going to work so I have to tough it out. When I come home I wanna be left alone to veg in front of the TV with a book. If my hubby decided to make me chicken soup though I wouldn't turn it down! LOL

Are you planning to dress up for Halloween? How long do you typically plan your costume? Do you keep it a secret?


View 1031 Answers



i'd like to dress up but these next weeks may get too crazy for me to put anything together. I have a kimono cut out and ready to sew. If I finish my Griffindor scarf I could go as Tonks. Was she a Griffindor or did JK Rowling ever say? Nah, no secret costumes here.
