it's the freakin weekend baby

it's the weekend. and we don't have work monday. i rarely work mondays anyway. but this monday EVERYONE has off! so it should be a good day. i don't have anything planned but sometimes those are the best. i wish i was going to the beach though. i was getting ready tonight and looked in the mirror and realized how pasty i am. you're probably wondering what it looks like. well, i am THAT GIRL that doesn't know how to post pictures. so... i need a lesson. aud will teach me and i've already picked out photos. be waiting impatiently.
i worked only i half day today. made a trip to the mall, left feeling like a tub-o-lard and headed to auds class.
not only did i walk in and all of them looked at me and i had NOTHING clever to say, but... the smell. aud.. wow. it was def the end of the day.
all of her kids gathered around me, sat at my feet and i read a story about a seed and this oriental named ping. i felt like miss libby.
and- i was so self conscience (?) about reading. uh, failing that test totally gave me a complex. i'm so sure. but it did. and i had to read the word succeeded, and ... stumbled. aud was like... its ok, just sound it out.

amy--- a night in your bed eating blue bell ice cream, maybe after getting banana slurpees, while watching gone with the wind.... IS MOST DEF IN STORE.

-you all know you love me.


p.s. my daddy is laying in the chair ... watching sound of music. no one else is in the room, therefore... this viewing is by his own choice.
and that, my dear, is why he is my hero.

FINE EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!

ok ok ok ok ok.
ok.
i finally did it. i am updating. so now all of you can just SHUT UP.
sorry it's been over a month. i guess i am just busy??? no no. thats not it. i just put this off. i don't know why.
let me see lets re-cap the month.
-mexico was so fun! i went with the funnest people ever we had some good laughs. i think the highlight was aaron eating 30 tacos. although the more i think of it, and totally witnessing it, i realized i could take him on that. really. i could eat 30 tacos in two days. actually one and a half. so bring it chump.
-work is soooos ooos ososososo sooo busy. i am on my feet all day and running around. and constantly still around dental jargon i just tilt my head and say-gotchya. but my feet ache when i get home. i just want someone to rub them. and by someone, i know EVERY member of my family reads this. CLUE IN ON THIS ONE. but it is good. i'm watching the the scholes kids at the end of september while they go to europe. the guest bed is the comfiest thing i have EVER layed in. i've been dreaming about it for sometime now.
-made a trip up to utah for the... 9th time this year. steph got married. it was so fun. it was so short. but aim picked me up wednesday. went back to her apartment, ate chips and salsa and totally bonded. she is the girl where time can pass, but not matter how much time passes, we still freakin rock the kazbaa together. then thursday was the wedding and it was beautiful. i am so glad i could be there. mainly for steph but the candy there was soooo good. and it was good to have robbie come with his fiance. i hate the word. fiance.
-went to TWO musicals this month. thats right. count em-TWO. footloose at hale theater, which i just wanted to dance and sing the whole time and then mamma mia at gammage. and... not gonna lie, on that one, i DID dance and sing the whole time. "mamma mia... here i go again, my my....daaaa dadaaa ddaaa" now you all -along with me- will have that in your head forever.
-on some weekends i go down and see my nanie. i have this feeling i need to go see her again. i had a dream last night she passed away. WHAT. nanie-the lover- cannot die. but it was so real. but i like to go down there and take her out to dinner and spend the night with her. she makes me laugh. she makes me happy.
-im thinking about training for the rock and roll marathon in jan. actually i lie, the half. cuz i was going to do the whole and... i was sitting at work... on the couch and i heard someone yell my name. naturally, in a panic, i BOLTED up. and by bolted i mean full throttle jumped out of the couch and RAN. ran right into the wood bench head on to my knee. like... the patella (isn't that what it is...) moved out of place and i had to limp the whole day and got a fat bruise. moral-- my knee is hurting that when i ran a measly 5 miles the other day it ached.
aching pisses me off.
-i can't read. actually i can. i just can't comprehend. i took the test to see if you could pass out of reading, cuz i thought i totally did, and i was going over my transcripts last week, and saw i still had reading. so i was like.. oh i'll just go take that test, pass out of it, and not have to take that pre-req. um, fail the test. i can't comprehend crap. like i took it twice. the first one.... the results-- i was SHOCKED. so the next day i took it, i was reading the story then answering the questions and i remember reading over the questions and being like, wait, did they mean this, or... they could be meaning that.... then i looked up at the ceiling and shook my head and said, al, this is how you fail. this is how you fail... you don't get it.
smoke comprehending things. i comprehend what i want. so.... i have to take a reading class. i'm taking it through rio salado. so i don't have to go to the school for one measly class.
actually. mainly for the fact i don't want any witnesses physically seeing me in a reading class.
-oh i've taken up swing dancing.
i'm actually pretty good at it. not dancing... just the moves.
ok i'll blog tomorrow.
and... i totally had buttery fingers today. it first started with my cell phone, then right outside the front door i dropped my peanut butter on bread, gravity taking place, it landed face down ON THE FRONT DOOR MAT. still ate it like a champ. dropped 2 sets of instruments today and ALMOST, ALMOST the implant kit. that... i've been trying to estimate all day, i think the cost of it... is more than my life and my little brothers. combined.
ok until tomorrow.
-tell 'em about me.
