MLIA

So I check this site pretty regurlarly for a good laugh and since I'm kinda bored I figured I'd put some of my favorites:

Today, I rear ended another car and the person I hit happened to be a midget. The guy got out his car and walked to my window, looked up and said, “I am not happy.” I wish I had the courage to say, “Then which one are you?” Instead I just apologized. MLIA

Today, me and my best friend made a pact, that on each of our weddings, we'd stand up, say: I'd like to make a toast, take out a toaster, put it on the table, wait for the toast to pop up, and sit down casually. I can't wait. MLIA (Someone better do that for my wedding! ;D)

Today I asked a french bloke if he played video games. He said Wii. MLIA.

Today, I realized that Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber, the two main characters in Veggie Tales, are fruits. MLIA

Today, I was short 50 cents for a bus ride home to see my family for Thanksgiving. Dejected, I turned to go sit on the curb. An elderly homeless man dug into his pockets and gave me the 50 cents I needed to get home but demanded that I had to give him five. Confused, I told him that I did not have that kind of money. He smiled broadly, grabbed hold of my wrist and then slapped me five before running across the street. MLIA

Today, I was working at my store and a customer was frantically searching for something. Her English wasn't great and she kept saying "Chicken Balls, Chicken Balls". We searched the entire store to find small meat balls made of chicken until we finally realized she meant eggs... MLIA

I was sitting on a couch watching TV with my dad and an ad for New Moon came on. Right after Edward says "This will be the last time you see me." My dad shouts "Well thank god for that!" at the TV. I just gained more respect for him. MLIA

My mom's arm

Please pray for my mom right now.

So my mom's first grade class went on a field trip today to the high school, and she has a new student (who barely understands/speaks English) and he wanted to touch everything, so my mom held his hand through most of the hallways and stuff, but he was pulling away from my mom a lot (she was holding his hand with her right hand...the REALLY bad arm...) and there was a couple of times when he yanked her arm and so she would have to physically restrain him while he's kicking and dropping his dead weight on her, all while her arm is going through extreme pain.

When they got back to the school, she went to the nurse, gets Tylenol and an ice pack, and then goes to the teacher room for something. Well the teachers see, start asking questions, she explains, word gets to the principal (who knows about mom's condition with her arm, it was bad last year) and the principal SUSPENDS THE FIRST GRADER and sends my mom home. Like gives her no option, she HAD to go home. And she is in SO much pain...like if she sits and doesn't move her ENTIRE ARM she's ok, if she moves her shoulder just a bit, or like slouches or ANYTHING she almost starts crying. It is SO bad...

Pray for the kid's parents too...they also know very little English, and they have trouble controlling him but they feel bad and are just apologizing so much...I feel so bad for them...

Just pray for the whole situation. We're hoping that he gets moved out of the school to a "behavioral classroom" or something like that...we think something's wrong developmentally or something like that.

I'm the big bad wolf???

My day. Yeah, parts were rotten. It was going pretty aight in the beginning, and then I got into a movie quote debate with DK and I got proven "wrong" (even though we learned later I was technically right...whatever) and of course I hate being wrong, especially about movie quotes, but I wasn't like legit upset, so I just said like an off-hand comment but then it was taken seriously...or at least I felt like it was, and that just kinda set me off into an even worse mood...even though I KNOW that it's not even that big of a deal. I don't even know...yeah, it's not even CLOSE to being that time of the month.

My body's emotions are just screwy lately. Like...EVERY STINKIN LITTLE THING is getting under my skin. Like things that don't even matter, are majorally ticking me off, which puts me in a bad mood, and when I'm in a bad mood, the bad sarcasm comes out, and when the bad sarcasm comes out people end up taking everything I say seriously and it gets me into trouble cause other people get hurt. So you know what I've realized? I've realized that when I'm upset, I should just keep my big mouth shut or people need to learn that they can't listen to anything I say. They have to know that I don't legit mean it, that it's just me fuming in one moment. But I betcha ten minutes later, I'd be fine.

So anyway...on with the day...it was ok. Nothing like TOO bad...just not a good day. And here's the funny thing, I dunno if I could even tell you WHY it wasn't good, it just wasn't. So don't ask why. Hah...can you tell I'm back into that bad mood phase? Maybe you should just quit reading this post now, I say stupid things that I majorally regret when I get upset.

I dunno, I just feel like I'm messing up a lot lately, but like I'm not even realizing that I'm 'messing up', if that makes any sense. Like I'll do something that I think is totally fine, but it gets someone else really riled up and then they get all upset with me and I feel like I'm constantly proving myself or explaining myself or just SOMETHING like that...I dunno, I can't think.

Oh, another thing, I feel like I'm getting in trouble for being ME. Like...I'll act a certain way or something or say something and then someone else will say something and I won't agree and then they're like shocked or something that I'm not siding with them like I 'always' do. And then I become the big bad wolf because I disagreed with them over something puny.

You know...Sanya had a huge meltdown tonight over something really little, but once she started getting upset she got REALLY upset and EVERYTHING just poured out. And I was talking to mom, and she said she doesn't think it's the little thing that got her upset, it's our whole stressful family situation emotions coming out. Like on the surface...Sanya's been doing ok, but I'm positive she isn't. I bet it's the same with me right now...I just thought about that. Like everything that's annoying/frustrating me is so LITTLE, and I KNOW that, but it's not helping...I just have so many stupid emotions to deal with that they're all coming out at the wrong people and at the wrong time but no one quite gets that so I get into even more trouble for being upset. I don't know if that made any sense, but whatever.

I just...feel so alone sometimes.

ANWAY, I digress...tonight we had our Winter Concert and it was pretty good, kept my mind off of things and I actually had a really great time. I hadn't thought stuff was bugging me as much as it's been or whatever, but apparently it was cause DK commented that I seemed off tonight or something...

I want to have happy days again...I've been having lots of little happy moments, but overall bad days...

I wanna be a little girl again...I want my daddy to be able to hold me in his arms and whisper in my ear that everything is gonna be all right...you know what, I don't even care if he doesn't tell me things are gonna be ok...I just want my daddy...

I'll Stand By You

"Oh, why you look so sad?
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now.
Don't be ashamed to cry, let me see you through
Cause I've seen the dark side too.
When the night falls on you, you don't know what to do,
Nothing you confess could make me love you less

I'll stand by you,
I'll stand by you, won't let nobody hurt you,
I'll stand by you.

So, if you're mad get mad, don't hold it all inside,
Come on and talk to me now.
And hey, what you got to hide?
I get angry too
But I'm alot like you.
When you're standing at the crossroads, don't know which path to choose,
Let me come along, cause even if your wrong

I'll stand by you,
I'll stand by you, won't let nobody hurt you,
I'll stand by you.

Take me into your darkest hour, and I'll never desert you.
I'll stand by you.
And when, when the night falls on you baby, you're feeling all alone,
You won't be on your own, I'll stand by you."

Wish I could make things better for you, I love you.

Quote of the Day

"It's illegal...but go ahead."

Ahhhh...good times!!!! ;D

O Tannenbaum!!!

We decorated our Tannenbaum tonight!!!

Mom put up our lights (we went multi-colored this year, I think I actually prefer plain white though) Friday morning before she went up to New York with her best friend. Haha, quick sidenote: she went up with her friend to go to like an Irish rock concert and she came home and both of them were just like excited teenage girls! They came in the door giggling and laughing at numerous inside jokes, and then asked me to take their picture...which we did for like five minutes straight cause they had to get their hair right, or the hat was tilted the wrong way, or the smile wasn't good enough, or SOMETHING. It was HYSTERICAL. Then my mom was Irish "jigging" around the house for awhile, which was a SIGHT. She was actually pretty good, it was just really funny. ;D

End sidenote.

So we got all our ornaments out from the shed and started decorating! All three kids like "called" a section of the tree. Our grandparents buy us a special ornament every year that goes with a theme. Like Sanya's are all from a granddaughter collection, Josh has different kinds of firetrucks (like not plastic...REALLY cool old classic firetrucks), and I have all Dr. Seuss ornaments and Christmas Visitors. We each got our section and started decorating. I am SO SLOW...everything has to be just right, and I re-organized stuff like a bagillion times!!! But I'm happy with it now. :]

Each of us also have trains from like our first Christmases (is that a WORD??? it looks odd...). Haha, there's one picture of me where I look MISERABLE. And apparently that's how I look in half my baby pictures. My parents have told me that I was an extremely happy child...but everyone at church always thought I was upset cause I never smiled in front of other people...things have certainly changed...haha. So in the picture I'm in this angel costume in front of a 'manger' set-up, and I'm just miserable...it's SO funny.

We had lots of fun tonight decorating, it was really nice. I love our Tannenbaum. We have SO many ornaments that you always notice something different. Haha, did I mention I have a Timon and Pumba ornament?? I put it front and center this year. :D

Yaaaaaay Tannenbaum!!!!!!

Lyrics Mash of the Day

All of the things that I want to say just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping on words
You've got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here

Can you hear me?
Does anyone around me
Feel the way that I feel now?
Cause from the window where I sometimes cry
I just want to see Your face tonight
And I'm willing to lose everything I am

I'll be by your side
Wherever you fall
In the dead of night
Whenever you call
And please don't fight
These hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you

Make a promise to me now,
Reassure my heart somehow,
That the love that I feel,
is so much more real than anything
