Word of the day: Snuggie

I finally got mine today :) It's blue and wonderful. I'm still not sure if I want to name it Jacob or Ryan.

I'm home now. But not contemplative. I actually feel really weird.

On Sunday, we watched all 5 hours of Pride and Prejudice. Ok, I didn't watch the whole thing. I had to work on a CHOW project with Christina on medieval women mystics....strange people, they were...but I did get my fair share of non-gay Colin Firth.

Then there was a sonic trip that involved the smalled ice cream sundae ive ever had...not worth a whole dollar....and then walmart and christmas decorations. I want them. Yes, I've finally gotten into Christmas spirit. It's about time. Actually, Kohl's did it, you know, when I went shopping alone. They were playing Christmas music, and well, I couldn't help it. SO GOOD.

We didn't buy anything at walmart.

Monday was insane.

I arranged to meet Christina at 8 to work on our presentation. 8:40, I called her. I woke her up. Fail. I could've gotten another hour of sleep.

Have I ever talked about how much I love my kindergartners? Rebecca doesn't remember my name. Well, she mixes me up with other helpers..and I'm like, thanks, kid. I mention you in my blog, and you can't remember me even when I help you cut out your treasure box. I had to watch the kids during recess, and when they got bored, I arranged races for them. They had to try to get from the fence to my hand as fast as possible, doing whatever I told them to. They ran, hopped, skipped, pretended to be ice cream cones, etc. Their favorite was the cones. But who doesn't love ice cream cones?

Christina and I put on a ridiculous presentation. I was Hildegard of Bingen and she was Christina of Markyate. I was wearing Lisa's Harry Potter robe with a white scarf over my head and she was wearing an Eowyn dress. She came in reading a vision while I was singing in the background. We only got one contemptuous look from a girl who's a whore anyway, but Macallister loved it, so who cares. I totally had a vision in the middle of and said the word "womb" in front of the class.

Plus, my TECS presentation went really well. I love Autistic kids.

Snuggies get really warm really fast. Maybe I should name him Jacob.

Today, I battled with myself for two hours over whether or not I should get a flu shot. When I was finished, I didn't have time to get it. But Sarah said she would go with me if I went, so maybe I'll wait for her...

Kait can be fun to ride with in the car. We danced some, and spotted a car that we didn't really understand. Two bumper stickers--the most prominent was, "Who would Jesus bomb?" and the second was "The Episcopalian Church". Yeah. We were confused too. WWJB?

My dog was really excited to see me.

It's weird that when I talk to my grandfather on the phone, I get to say "Hey Dick!"

I got inside my house, and the first thing I saw was my snuggie. Not my mom, not my brother, but my brand-new snuggie box with the ecstatic blonde lady on the front. The blanket with sleeves. One size fits all-for adults. For work and play. Leaves hands free! I greedily grabbed the box. Daniel got the scissors. When I had wrestled it free, Daniel snatched it. Then he did a horrendous thing...he took MY snuggie's virginity! Yes, he was the first to wear my snuggie. >:( He shall PAY.

Mom has this way of keeping me talking while I'm trying to eat.

Then, dad had to show me all of his prints. There's this picture of me and Audrey skipping on the beach that I'm going to steal.

Mom and Dad told me their engagement story for the first time today. It wasn't very exciting (except for dad telling me they made out---ew.), but after he proposed, he did yell, "She said yes!!" to a bunch of the cars he passed driving home.

Daniel was trying to tell me stories about babysitting and working at Rainforest Adventures, but all I could think was, "Wow. His teeth look at lot like Robert Pattinson's." My brother is a vampire.

Audrey has a Jacob cup and a Jacob shirt. And she hasn't even read New Moon. I'm going to kill her and marry Jacob.

This snuggie is way too warm.

My father just turned "lmao" into "laughing my anus open." *sigh*. Gynecologists.
