She was passed around like a bottle of Crown, but she was always sweet to me...

I'm listening to Casey Donahew and talkin to friends I haven't heard from in a while.

Y'know what sucks? Having to sign into AIM so that someone can IM you pictures of the guy she's crushing on. Pictures that may or may not have been pirated from his Facebook profile. Slightly creepyish, I know, but it's more about us than it is about him! (egocentric much? what's new?) In all honesty though, I want to be clued in to what's going on in her life, and she wants to update me! How else are we supposed to do that from a distance?

I miss being close to my friends. Sadly, everybody's so spread out that I'll never have my solid group in the same place. It makes me especially sad that they're all so far from Denver. I am thankful, however, that most of them are AT&T customers :)

I certainly hope there isn't anything to that cell phone/brain tumor thing because if there is, I'm utterly screwed.

Dry County?

I would like to bring the following to everyone's attention:

The best are these quotes from my beloved LBK's spiritual leaders.

“I have struggled to find in Scripture ‘Thou shalt not ever take a drink,’” he told them on the Sunday I visited. “I wish I could point to words that said that. I can’t.”

"David Wilson, the pastor of Southcrest Baptist Church, told me that he believed Jesus had turned water into unfermented wine"

Hilarious.

My Little Sister

I've been missing some important people quite a bit lately, one of them being my super adorable little sister...so I decided to share some favorite quotables of my favorite person! Cam can always can make me smile, and if you've met her then you understand why!!

"Did you really hit a kid in the head with a brick when you were little? Because one day, in Tuesday/Thursday school, I threw a big rock over my shoulder and hit this little black boy in the head and he started bleeding. Then he told on me and I went to the principal's office - and hid it from Mom and Dad till I was in junior high. Hahahaha man we are SO sisters. Was the little boy black? Just curious...."

"Don't move to Minnesota. Because it's so cold in Minnesota that you'd freeze to death. And everybody knows that freezing to death is like ..... the fourth worst way to die."

"I think a good dating rule would be that if he cheated on me or treated me like shit or broke my heart I could run him over with a car. I think that's a good rule."

Why not??

Just checking to see what's new in your life...found yourself a girl yet?

Eh, not a stable one.

...Meaning you've found a booty call?

Why must you label everything??

Redemption

I found my silver lining! The awesomeness of today's skiing has vastly surpassed the suck of Thursday and Friday's work commute.

Today was by far the best experience that I've had on the slopes all year...with the possible exception of the time I spotted Jesus skiing down Peak 9 at Breckenridge. That was pretty awesome, too.

Speaking of Jesus and Breckenridge experiences....when I die I hope that one of my friends immortalizes their love of my memory in sharpie on the inside of a bathroom stall, right next where someone wrote 'Jesus is life' -- and a second someone crossed out Jesus to replace it with 'weed'.

I'll also have you know that the first time I typed that sentence it read 'if I ever die' and memory was spelled with an ie. It's been a long day and my brain is tired!

Blizzard!

It snowed a TON today in Denver. The road outside my balcony looks like an ice skating rink. Seriously. It does.

Whenever I see massive amounts of snow like this I'm reminded of The Shining. Before moving up here, that was the only way I was familiar with the concept of being snowed in. I actually remember being in the 7th grade when the film's remake came out as a television series. It was a big three day event. I watched the entire thing at my neighbor Whitney's house and just about wet my pants every night when it was time for me to walk the 20 yards from her door to mine in the dark. When there's this much snow out I half expect to see Brian Hackett from Wings jump out at me with an axe and a tepid Jack Nicholson impersonation. I don't know. My mind goes strange places sometimes.

Maybe I'll take a picture tomorrow morning before I slide to work on the ice and post it up here for you. In all honesty though, the chances of me a) getting out of bed early enough to play photographer and/or b) actually remembering that I made a halfhearted blog promise - are slim to none. My apologies to you blog followers at large. You can get on the weather channel and watch some Denver area webcams. If you're up around oh-six-hundred Mounain Standard, think of me. I'll be wrapped in a blanket and peering between my blinds, cursing not only my small car, but mother nature herself...and the plow drivers whose maps apparently don't include the large street adjacent to my complex. I'd hate to leave them out.

Irritated

With myself. For two reasons:

1) I insist on checking into any story that pops up on my facebook feed about people who annoy me. I honestly don't have a clue why I do this. While most people avoid people they don't agree with/don't get along with, I seem strangely drawn to them.

2) Although I have about 5 loads of laundry and 2 sinks of dishes to do, I decide to take on projects like organizing my desk drawers ... and uploading old pictures ... and ... blogging.

*sigh*
