Two Headed Blog Part 1

so it's been really too long since i've last blogged. but what can i say?

i guess i'll say my last finals ended last tuesday and my boss gave me wednesday off...to be cool. so i woke up and it was looking nice out so i took my dogs for a walk on plymouth beach...they loved it.

swonce i got home i thought, hey it would be a good time to visit salvage chic! on the way jon called me so i gathered him. we hit up salvage chic and chatted with claudia for a minute and saw garrett painting outside then i wanted cotton candy so we went downtown! mike lovely met up with us, followed soon after by steph hallet. me, jon, and steph sat and talked for a little bit and absorbed the nice weather.

i birthed a bike seat.

so i don't really think i did too much last thursday or friday cuz i don't remember them. i know i worked. maybe got real tired. on saturday, however, i know i did do something! after work hanna and i wanted to go to the south shore plaza so we did. when we were basically there we saw a carnival next to the mall so we decided it was what we had to do. we paid $1 for admission and then bought tickets to go on one ride. we met this incredible boy on the ride and he made my night. i bought a bag of cotton candy and gave some to a stranger cuz i thought she asked for some...but i think she was asking the price of it...woops. basically it was awesome and we only went to the mall for a little bit before going back home. i got sydney after and we went to the independence mall to see 17 again, again. i loved it she hated it. so did jj. nbd.

hanna got new glasses.





this happened on sunday....went to michael's with amanda.

i had monday off so i slept at sydney's and we hung out for a little while...until she had wild babysitting stuff. jon text me so i met up with him, dan, and jacqui at kiskadee cafe. we all went to silver lake to watch dan's little sister's softball game. we wondered if we stood out as creepy old kids or fit in...i think we were creepy.

i just felt like i a piggyback needed to happen.
afterwords jacqui went to mack bruce and me jon and dan went to dan's. we watched talladega nights with his dad and sister and his mom cooked us the best dinner; mac& cheese, potatoes, chicken, and brocolli. best. then we built a fire in dan's backyard and me jon dan emily dentino and dan's parents had a joyous time before i went to sleep.

tuesday morning i woke up early to bring my car to the shop before work. after work i babysat and then went and got my car with my mom and my dog.

then i went to syd's and we went to sean walsh's birthday gathering down the street from her house. she sang her famous song, "Engagment" to chris.
we're gonna get married.
as long as you stop showing your mom your dink.
we're gonna be in sync.
stop showing your mother your dink.

then we went to dan's again to have another raging fire! this time raul, ray, jon, dan, syd, me and josh cohen were there! wild. we went to 24 hour walmart in some sort of car race including butts.


fire.

we got hotdogs.
that basically brings part 1 to a close. stay tuned for part 2. coming soon. it will be good! maybe better than this blog. i got to go get jon joe jack hammer and have a fun friday night!

little ducky baby. in a long tee.

i started writing this post last night but came overwhelmed with the fear of dos finals today. turns out my analysis final was basically word for word the review sheet he handed out the class before and my psych final went along the same lines. the teacher had left out an answer key if we wanted to check after and i got 47/48. not bad. so heather and i hopped on facebook afterwards and had one of the best times i've ever had. she said she was gonna return some books so i figured why not? and ended up making out with $123. it was nice. i got a text from eric saying our physics grades were in...so i would now know if i had to take physics again...turns out i got a C+ which is really better than i expected. i got an A in geometry which is also grood. i came home to a giant pile of mulch in my driveway...so i did some good ole yardwork..and now i'm here, achey back and all.

yesterday after my abstract final i hung out with eric and bought a bed thing at salv arm for $.83...there isn't a cent symbol on the keyboard. i think i came home to do more yardwork and then ended up hanging out with jj and ari. we went to visit the ryan goslings down by the river.

jj got me shades at savers.


laffy taffy.


turtle cove.


mommy daddy.

and i almost forgot!!

ari got a shake.

well that's it for now. hopefully i'll be posting again in the not so distant future.

just another soldier on a road to nowhere.

been keeping busy. trying to keep thoughts on the surface. sometimes too worn out to think about anything. and when i do think it doesn't really make sense.

rr says: you're better off alone.
i say: i know.



please don't comment on this if i don't really know you. this goes for my future blogs too. if we've talked more than once and are friends then yes. but if not...please don't.

the best things in life are truly free

today on the way to school i saw a bunch of old window frames and shutters on the side of the road with a free sign in front of them. for some reason i wanted nothing more than the window frames. old, paint peeling, white, square window frames. so on the way home i wanted to get a closer look and maybe snag them. as i'm rounding the turn in kingston all i could think of was i hope these frames are still there! and wa la! they are! along with a lot more stuff minus the shutters but plus a bike. so i pulled over and parked in their driveway and immediately started shoving the bike into my car. then i looked at the frames and didn't want them anymore. so i walked away with a new bike...for free. and some internal happiness.

love will tear us apart

time for a weekly update.

i'm not sure what i even did this week...
monday i observed in a music class at nathaniel morton. i got to listen to the angelic tunes of 3rd graders playing hot cross buns on the recorder for an hour and then i watched a movie with 30 6 year olds.


it was a really nice movie, kind of sad, but nice.

tuesday i ended up teaching a 3rd grade math class. it was awesome. i was nervous but it ended up going well. my friend katie, who is the teacher, told me that they really liked me and wanted me to come back sometime. i'm really happy about this fact.

wednesday. i worked with emily and eric on some geometry problems and then went to salvage chic to have some good laughs with my favorite antiquers. while i was there i bought a side table.

the cups are courtesy of smitty.
i hung out with my dogs....



i think i'm getting days mixed up...anyways. i took a nap for a long time. and then hung out with jonathan. we watched arrested development and loved it.

on thursday....i took ro and b for a walk/run and gave b a bath. then i shopped til i dropped..one. ha. then i helped my mom and richard clean up the yard. i ended up making brownies and watching the office.

friday was a wild day. i woke up went to school went to work went to babysit went to natalie's went to mandi's play.



me natalie and chrissy were loving the costumes. also i was in the bathroom and forgot to lock the door on my stall and just before chrissy went to open it i went oops...i forgot to look my door...and they called me a creep and i died laughing.
us girls then hit up the good old wendy's parking lot to just be cool. i called jeff complaining about abstract life on the way home and then jeff made a joke and which made me feel better and we talked about good life until i eventually fell asleep.

i woke up on saturday to this...


after work syd and i went up into the city to go to nicki's apartment bash! best car ride ever. we kept going the wrong way and just circling around the area. once we found a spot that i could fit in (that's what she said) i began to parallel park...as syd says "it coulda been from a movie". i don't know what was going on. we hung out with nicki for a while but since it took forever to get there it was getting late and i was tired. so we said our good byes.
syd had been talking to kevin, who now lives in the city, and so we stopped by to see him for a little while before going home. however trying to park the car was impossible so we just ended up grabbing kevin, jon, and raul and sang taylor swift real loud.

syd and joe jonston, prom dates, and a kevy sandwich.

syd drove us home and me her and sullie had a wonderous sleepover in luke's corduroy palace.

i worked with paul for a couple hours today. ari jj and jj's little sister came to visit! which was awesome! and after work i picked up jeff and we went to jeff hill's going away party. some party highlights... kevin: "we'll go in the back ally entrance of the mall." abe: "you mean the scary entrance." and 2 pairs of people wearing the same shoes, tin: "it's like wearing the same dress to prom."
we were supposed to all go to the mall so jeff went home and i went to meet people...turns out jon joe's car wouldn't stop so we all went back to jeff hill's. which lead to sitting around, lounging and scrounging, and loving life...for some.

jon joe...not too pleased.




hanging out at tin's.


weiner gangs were formed and abe and kevin fought. also note jon in the group shot.


raul wished he had pockets.
basically that's it. i haven't done much since and i'm real tired. so goodnight all.
