you know when you are in an areoplane and you can see the freon coming out and it's really really cold, well that was my car this morning. they put more freon in it yesterday...i think this means it's going to work when it's hot oustide and it has heat to compete with.
p.s. yus i know how to spell airplane...i misspelled it on purpose- note:r.h.c.p-music is my areoplane
p.s. yus i know how to spell airplane...i misspelled it on purpose- note:r.h.c.p-music is my areoplane
Choking on all the feeling that i'm swallowing in. Tasting the Failure on my lips that i've lead in
so i woke up this morning , hit the snooze button, it went off again 8 minutes later and i hit it again, this time however i started thinking and i actually made myself get up for the first time in a long long time. i think that's awesome cuase i use to be able to get up automatically and get ready and yeah i stopped doing that sometime this year.
anyways i got up and started to get ready. I decided i would give my ipod a listen while i was drying my hair ...well i turned it on and it was stuck on the clock...maybe it was in shock that i was awake this early cause since i've had it ,3 days now, i've gotten up at 1 or 2 . so i was worried but not too worried. after about 30 minutes of it being stuck on the clock i hooked it up to my computer and well that woke it up and now it's working fine and i'm still able to listen to lou's music....yus more kenna.
so i then turned off beloved- great album by the way - love it. and started listening to kenna.
afterwards i went to seattle drip and got something different to drink - coffee toffee.
then i went to work and found out that one of our co-workers died this weekend- we aren't sure how yet....it's very odd
the mood here is very somber and quiet and everyone has been talking about it.
i started to work on the webpages and print them out. which was great but i'll be starting on other divisions soon...sad.
i became a littel baffled last night....i wondered how some of my friends could call other people but they never can manage to call me....is it that easy to forget me , am i over looked or do they rather hang out with others than me.
i don't know...i'm getting use to it , but i still hate it - i feel unloved , unliked. i have friends who actually do call and tell me they miss me and come out with us tonight- why can't the people i've been friends with longer be like that.
i'll never know.
i also wonder ....if i'll be missed by them... if they'll turn to eachother or comment on how they miss me , or if when i come home they'll be like we have to go hang out with her, we havne't seen her in forever.
Don't get me wrong.. i love my friends to death.. i think they are all amazing people. I feel very blessed to have them in my life.. i just get a lil baffled by them sometimes....
i just try to remeber that it's not a big deal and it doens't matter , they dont' have anything against me - they're just forgetful. which is fine but sometimes it does hurt.
Also let me clear up soemthing - no i'm not depressed about this - No i don't get depressed about this anymore. Like i said i jsut become baffled and wonder. I dont' let it stune me , i'm just writing bout it right now because i had been thinking about it last night.
Nuff of that .
so it's july tomorrow and i have 3 weeks left.
i'll prolly have to start packing in about 1 or 2 weeks. mernt....moving.
i'm still so excited cause i have no idea what isnt' going to be like.
Oh yeah for those of you reading this - July 4th- Party at my house- mernt
people from Georgia are coming .....it's going to be wild crazy.
last year helen and i went and watched fire works at the dock.... i think we should do that again.
last july 4th was fun.
we can also have a early b-day party for maggy.
well i think that's bout it for today
keep ashley in your prayers- she's off to australia- today - she left this morning at 8.
she's doing an amazing thing.
oh yeah i believe watashi wa is the happiest band ever- i love them, they are so sweet and just so happy.
their new album is great- you all should check it out.

well i'm sitting her listening to kelly wingate on my ipod ....it's lou's - so i think i'll just listen to his music till i get my itunes stuff fixed on my comp and all my playlist together .

got my new ipod , hung out with helen and saw charlies angels ....funny movie. i enjoyed it . yeah it's not the best flick in the world but hey i enjoyed it and thought it was good so mernt.
anyways after that stef came and got me and we went to go get my pics and pick up an fm transmitter for my ipod and some earphones. then we went to ashley's house for her going away party and hung out there all night. it was awesome. i got to talk to dave (one of stef's friends) which was really cool we just sat on the couch and talked about God and his impacts on life , and it just really rocked my face off i love talking about that stuff and sharing things like that it just rocks. and it also rocks hearing what other people think. anyways i hope that we continue to talk and end up being friends cuase he seems like a nice guy. so then we ended up leaving ashleys bout 12 and we went on home and i listened to my ipod till about 1.30 or 2 .
so i guess that is my weekend so far ..wow i just off the phone with kirsten ....she didn't know the mail ran on sat....poor thing.

God if you can hear can you help me and my friends we've been driving all night into dead ends....
listening to 238 brings so much joy to me. i love it ....
i dunno if many of you remember but at the farwell show there was this girl who was wearing the 238 shirt , holding hte cd, singing (somewhat) and dancing horribly. we all laughed cuase it was so amusing
i think of that everytime i listen to 238 and i sometiems even do her little dance- hehe
i was driving yesterday i believe and i remebered this story from savannah:
orientation was horrible - 3 days of torture , walking around , learning things , talking , and ice breakers ....constant ice breakers..
well one of my roomies (Becca) was in this orientation group with this girl from arizona.
well the day we got the tour of the town they were walking around the squares. And they were talking abotu the aquirels (go firgure) well she made the comment she had never seen a squirel and then preceeded to feed the bloddy animal . and she got bit "ouch it bit me...."- the leader then said "yeah ...you're not suppose to feed em....i wouldnt' recommend it"
it was really funny to us....i mean really who feeds a squirel and gets bit????who feeds a squirel at that?
and they don't have squirels in arizona.....man
i get my ipod today i'm so excited...it's going to be grand. i'm going to get an itrip or irock too so i cna listen to it in the car.
also pictures are done today!!! woohoo. i'm so excited.
Talked with as cities burn. there will be a show on the 10th , and either another one with them that week or the following . i'm not sure..i'd rather do another show the following week. hopefully the other bands will respond and we can get this thing rolling.
i'm off to work again...i should finish with all the website stuff today....i'm so excited.

Well i hope everyone enjoyed the quizes and my posts (even though they were long.)
i'm at work right now of course battling being sick...hopefully i'll be better tomorrow.
drinking tomato soup...yummy.
Lou , you'll be happy to know that i'm persuing getting an ipod.
went over to savie's last night for the godfather party. good times . i had to leave early unfortunately because i felt horrible and needed sleep.
There was a huge spider outside, that jimmy wanted to kill. savie told us it was prolly carrying babies cause it was so fat. Well we told scott this (he was going to kill it for us) and he was like no , it's jsut really fat.
well he used jimmy's shoe to kill it , well when he swished it , millions of babies came out......scot then preceeded to thro jimmy's shoe back on the spider and leave it.
we got the shoe back though...spider free.
it was pretty fun to watch all this happen though.

awesome!!!!
So you wanna be a rockstar.......
as i'm trying to recover from last night [i somehow got sick-darn whoever did this] i'm sitting here at my work computer listening to Love You Loud. Strangely enough , they recorded at Glow in the Dark studios, and were produced by none other than Matt Goldman. Go Figure. They had a great energy on stage last night....hilarious and entertaining. The Singer went crazy, he got off stage and would go into the crowd and sing in peoples faces. he demanded that people clap and when they did not he drew attention to it, a few listeners and on lookers were a bit scared or intemidated by his presence so they moved to the back of the room where they felt more safe. if i had been able to i would have been all up in that . i thought they were great, as previously stated above. These guys though were not only entertaining on stage , they entertained off stage as well. I sat by them all night and they were hilarious. They also smoke like camels drink water (i think you know what i'm trying to say). All night they just kept lighting up cigaretts and cigars....wow guys wow. maybe that's what got be sick. The Singer [i believe his name is andrew] reminds me of -no scratch that . The whole band reminds me of the Rolling Stones. But the singer is obsessed with his tamberine.. it's hilarious. all last night - 'where's my tamberine'......during fletchers set and always sunday he just kept on banging away.....
Fletcher did amazing of course last night ..... this replacement drummer for jonezetta told me last night he had to see juesse, cuase jesse was half the show for him...i thought that was cute.
Phil [QID] brought by the cd's and we started selling them {of course} [ note : for some reason , today typing is more difficult than ever, so if i use the wrong verb tense, spell something horribly wrong. i am so sorry. I'm not poorly educated, i guess i'm just having trouble processing things this morning]
Jonexetta has gotten progressivly better each time i have seen them. Last night was by far their best show so far.
I thought it was hilarious when jimmy brought robert the flying v. i wish he would of kept it.
Always Sunday....
great job. definatly better than the last time they came. Better stage presence, better atmosphere. Trent actually talked. They did very well. I was very pleased.
Also great news... Last night while selling merch. J.P. [Bellador] asked me if i wanted to go on tour with them in August and sell merch and do photos. They are going to let me know about dates and such. He's going to check with the rest of the band to make sure it's okie. Phil joined in .... and i might be doing merch at the shows here for them too.
Then Trent's wife asked me if i wanted to do the same thing for them ..... wow.....she got my info and i talked with trent also , they are gun ho for it .
Do you know how much i love doing this sort of stuff ... i mean i'm majoring in this sort of thing.
This would be great experience for me .. now don't get me wrong ...fletcher is great experience also , i love those boys to death and i love helping them out and doing that stuff for them, they are my favorite people to work for. i enjoy them the most. But what i'm saying is the more bands i get to work for the more experience i will have. [ if you are still confused my major is music business management]
I really hope this all works out , cause i would love to do that for them. I just enjoy doing all of this so much .
words cannot express. It's great all the opportunities God has given me.
I really am truely blessed.
Rock and Roll....rock n roll.
i just switched to questions in dialect album...amazing... it's a must have -8 tracks of just .........words cannot do it justice.
[i'll prolly write more about it when i've had the full dish of it]
but if you have ever enjoyed a live show , then i don't need to say anything. The CD speaks for itself, it's just understood.
It's amazing. I really don't need to talk about the intrecate guitar riffs twisting and climbing till it explodes in detail, the delicate drums that end up in a whirlwind of effects and percusion swirls , the tangleing bass lines that leads you further and further in this musical explosion. No... no .... that all speaks for itself.
The cd will cause you to think.....
as you may know......but i don't think you really do know until you've sat down with this and heard it for all its worth and beauty.

as i'm trying to recover from last night [i somehow got sick-darn whoever did this] i'm sitting here at my work computer listening to Love You Loud. Strangely enough , they recorded at Glow in the Dark studios, and were produced by none other than Matt Goldman. Go Figure. They had a great energy on stage last night....hilarious and entertaining. The Singer went crazy, he got off stage and would go into the crowd and sing in peoples faces. he demanded that people clap and when they did not he drew attention to it, a few listeners and on lookers were a bit scared or intemidated by his presence so they moved to the back of the room where they felt more safe. if i had been able to i would have been all up in that . i thought they were great, as previously stated above. These guys though were not only entertaining on stage , they entertained off stage as well. I sat by them all night and they were hilarious. They also smoke like camels drink water (i think you know what i'm trying to say). All night they just kept lighting up cigaretts and cigars....wow guys wow. maybe that's what got be sick. The Singer [i believe his name is andrew] reminds me of -no scratch that . The whole band reminds me of the Rolling Stones. But the singer is obsessed with his tamberine.. it's hilarious. all last night - 'where's my tamberine'......during fletchers set and always sunday he just kept on banging away.....
Fletcher did amazing of course last night ..... this replacement drummer for jonezetta told me last night he had to see juesse, cuase jesse was half the show for him...i thought that was cute.
Phil [QID] brought by the cd's and we started selling them {of course} [ note : for some reason , today typing is more difficult than ever, so if i use the wrong verb tense, spell something horribly wrong. i am so sorry. I'm not poorly educated, i guess i'm just having trouble processing things this morning]
Jonexetta has gotten progressivly better each time i have seen them. Last night was by far their best show so far.
I thought it was hilarious when jimmy brought robert the flying v. i wish he would of kept it.
Always Sunday....
great job. definatly better than the last time they came. Better stage presence, better atmosphere. Trent actually talked. They did very well. I was very pleased.
Also great news... Last night while selling merch. J.P. [Bellador] asked me if i wanted to go on tour with them in August and sell merch and do photos. They are going to let me know about dates and such. He's going to check with the rest of the band to make sure it's okie. Phil joined in .... and i might be doing merch at the shows here for them too.
Then Trent's wife asked me if i wanted to do the same thing for them ..... wow.....she got my info and i talked with trent also , they are gun ho for it .
Do you know how much i love doing this sort of stuff ... i mean i'm majoring in this sort of thing.
This would be great experience for me .. now don't get me wrong ...fletcher is great experience also , i love those boys to death and i love helping them out and doing that stuff for them, they are my favorite people to work for. i enjoy them the most. But what i'm saying is the more bands i get to work for the more experience i will have. [ if you are still confused my major is music business management]
I really hope this all works out , cause i would love to do that for them. I just enjoy doing all of this so much .
words cannot express. It's great all the opportunities God has given me.
I really am truely blessed.
Rock and Roll....rock n roll.
i just switched to questions in dialect album...amazing... it's a must have -8 tracks of just .........words cannot do it justice.
[i'll prolly write more about it when i've had the full dish of it]
but if you have ever enjoyed a live show , then i don't need to say anything. The CD speaks for itself, it's just understood.
It's amazing. I really don't need to talk about the intrecate guitar riffs twisting and climbing till it explodes in detail, the delicate drums that end up in a whirlwind of effects and percusion swirls , the tangleing bass lines that leads you further and further in this musical explosion. No... no .... that all speaks for itself.
The cd will cause you to think.....
as you may know......but i don't think you really do know until you've sat down with this and heard it for all its worth and beauty.

sometimes i'm so encouraged by the blogs i read... how they are doing , walking in their faith everyday...
then i sometimes come across these blogs that are hopeless...they sound depressed, the things that they write about scare me because i don't know how they can live like this....how all they right about is this...{featured below an example}
at these moments i realize how blessed i am , and unworthy
i'm blessed to have the life i have , the friends i have.
The Lord has blessed me , and i'm so undeserving.
my life at times my not be perfect but i love it .... i don't wake up wishing i was someone new.....
i do hope to continually grow in my faith and become stronger and stronger.
also i started noticing things ... how God is working in everything
how things work out.....how God places you in certain places and certain times.
i just see God working ... i don't think i've really taken the time before to notice it ...but when you see it , it's so amazing.
here's the entry:
"it's good for a change every now and again.
sometimes you look around and you just don't know how to express the complexity of reality. you wake up hoping to be someone new, and you're just confronted with the same old shit. how endearing. so you suck it up and find a reason to smile. i mean, after all, even serial numbers are worth noticing.
i don't think i've been screaming loud enough. hell, sometimes i don't scream at all.
does it all just fade from you? is this the truth of time's displacement? do we just slowly forget what once mattered to us in some sort of honest grasp for something more?
there is no why. leave the rest to the speechwriters. that's what they're there for. they don't have to mean what they write. it's easy to be dramatic about things that don't hold any self-truth. reactionary self-defense behaviors be damned. sometimes it's just that easy. "

for susie.....
You are "Sheila take a bow."
You know that life hurts, and you've had your share
of pain, but that doesn't mean you can't still
have a good time. You know the importance of
not dwelling on your problems. You have a
generally positive outlook, and you are a
really good friend.

i'm itching i mean itching to write about this weekend . yeah . so here we go ....
Sat. i woke up and stated getting ready round 10.30 or 11 i don't remember and stef called me during this going it's saturday !!!!!! we need to talk about what the plans are , well in short she came over and we went and ran a few errands , picked up film and such. well after saying goodbye to the families we went off to get gas and some food. we were going to eat at keifer's but for some reason we decided to head back ot north jackson and eat at the chick-fil-a well on our way jimmy calls and asks if i can pick up some more cd's for the shows (amazing how things work out) anyways so we ate so so so fast jumped in the car and headed to jimmy's house and i talked a lil bit with mrs. cajoleus (sweet sweet lady) and we then headed off to covington , la. well we called about 30 minutes after being on the road to see where the boys were - they were at the kroger in clinton. (i knew they wouldn't leave on time) so we slowed down a lil because we were really far ahead of them. well we hit bad weather and they didn't . and we finally got into la. well we started driving and i knew what exit to take but when we came upon it it said I-12 , well colin told us to take I-10, i thought this was odd so we kept going. and then we hit the bridge. at time i yelled I-10's in NEW ORLEANS!!! i then called jimmy:
"hey what's up ?"
"Hey- nothing"
"So i was wondering....which exit are you guys taking? are you guys taking the I-12"
"hey guys which exit are we taking , the I-12?? yeah, yeah we're taking the I-12"
"Awesome i thought so ...thanks "
stef was so upset at this point - she kept saying "they didn't want us to come, they gave us the wrong directions!"
so we turned around of course. if i hadn't looked at a map before going down there we would have ended up in the water ! we finally made it to covington. [poor stef was so upset that she didn't knwo where she was going.she stayed in the car for a good 10 minutes before coming out. ] not soon after we arrived the boys showed up- upset they they got cheated out of a good sandwhich at subway. robert wanted a meatball sub and the lady told him no , she couldn't do that. As cities Burn was already there so we chatted with them for a while then started to help bring things in. We all started goofing off after things got unpacked. The boys started playing wall ball but it conformed to humping the ball (jesse's grand idea- stef got it on video tape) pascal won because he thru the ball at himself and well injured himself. what a trooper so they then went back to playing hardcore wall ball- that game is dangerous. no one understood the rules either so it was pure chaos.
after wall ball we ate pizza and jsut chilled. it was great. during this process stef and i realized we were "those girls" that come with the band and follow them around and everyone's like who are "those girls with the band" yeah well i ended up making a few new friends and meeting some really nice people.
the show started at 7.30 and it was packed. the boys went on sometime after 8.30 .[ but before they went on i helped colin put labels on their cd's and we chatted a while. he was so thrilled that i was taking pics for them , he just thought it was the greatest thing.] and they did amazing. As cities burn loved them. cody sang all the words and they were just freaking out. it was awesome. poor len wouldn't take off his shirt cause he was in a new place. colin got upset during the set cause people kept talking during fletcher's set [which t.j. made a comment about it when they started playing] when they finished of course the merch table got swamped- we sold 24 cd's . we were so stoked. jesse took over the merch table while i went and got back on stage for as cities burn. (poor poor jesse- he got left with cody's mom[who bought 20 cd's - 10 of each , and 3 buttons]. he didn't know who she was. she kept grabing his shoulder and getting on and off the chairs . and talking to him. she would grab his shoulder and do this bit---"is t.j. sick,(i don't know!!!!) i think he's sick!!! go find out , go get t.j.(you want me to go get him?? he's on stage!!!) is t.j. bleeding oh goodness go see if he's okie-[she sent jimmy with a wet rag to give to me to give to t.j.and to tell him it's from his mom- jimmy thought it was awesome ].( i can't he's on stage- he's performing lady) Move the pole i can't see move that curtin.(i can't the rode is in the way!!!!)"(who are you, go away , leave me alone!!!!!) ( i wanted to rip her uterus out!!!!!!!!) *( ) - is jesse.
While i sat on stage trying to take pictures T.J realized what was going on and started trying to get in the frame and kept coming over to where i was. The rest of the band praticipated in this , soon enough there was just a mob of them in the corner by the drums where i was....it was pretty funny. they did really awesome though. it was really nice to see them on their turf . with their fans . which was amazing , everyone ws going crazy and singing and it was just wow. it made me so happy to see everyone enjoying them. The put on a stellar show as usual. oh yeah i forgot cody opened up the set- just him singing and playing the guitar - he played the sickness of your memory. it was amazing. (as cities burn only had 3 cd's left when the show was over with- wow......)
after the show we all hung out. len got curious and decided to ask people with lip rings what it was like to make out with them. yeah that's len for ya. he got his answers. if he hadn't he was going to tell them to go make out with someone right then and tell him about it afterwards. robert rode back with us but he left his wallet and keys in drew's truck so we had to journey to ihop to get the wallet then i forgot to buy kyles cd so we had to go back again after getting gas which at this point we just decided to stay cuase we were hungry . we hung out with everyone at ihop and the people at ihop hated us. they had an angry cop watch over us and if we laughed he yelled at us- what a pooper. then they kept talking about us. when i went to pay they commented about us in front of us - i was going to be nice and poliet and tell them i was sorry there was so many of us and i appreciated their service and thank you so much . we always enjoy coming here. but no she had to go a be rude so i didn't say anything. but we all left amazing tips.
while we were at ihop we discovered the nija girls from the wrestling show back in march when we first met all of them. it was amazing, len discovered it- it made his day - prolly year. we told them that they forever changed the jackson scene , when the boys came back from that show- wow. poor robert didn't get his food till 2 hours later after we all ordered. it was the longest time spent in ihop. we left there round 1. i believe. we told everyone bye again for the 15th time. i'm going to try to put a show together up here for as cities burn . on the ride back we discovered a stink bug - wow that was hilarious- robert prolly doesn't know what to think of us.when we put in norma jean a new robert came out. it was hilarious. we had a pretty good ride back.
there's a show tonight - i'm working for the boys again- woohoo. can't wait. it's the last aa-lw show- so sad.
it should be really fun though.
the new as cities burn by the way is amazing.... better quality and it's just wow.
i hope to see all of htem real soon. i'm not sure what i'm going to do this weekend cause i've spent the last 3 weeks with them .
as jimmy said before we all parted ways .."it's like we've been on a bad short tour" bad i guess cause it was sparatic. but it's been so much fun.

You're the smirk,a frown-smile hybrid that's a
little bit cocky and usually associated with
evil or arrogant,but attractive people.You
probably just don't give a damn,but it's
everyone else's fault if you don't because
you're too awesome to have any real faults.

we moved my grandmother who lives in lagrange over here in august of last year, becuase she couldnt' take care of herself anymore -having strokes all the time can be a pain. anyways she lives in a nursing home on lakeland, or as my parents like to call it , the zoo.
so my mom got this call the yesterday , there had been an incident with my grandmother (now my grandmother is crazy, she's not all there , she has hulicinations and such , and can't remember alot of things but this time it wasn't a hulicination) so my mom had to go up there and deal with it.
There's this old man who lives in the nursing home who thinks all the women in the home are his wife. well sunday night he went into my grandmothers room and fondeled her.
When my mom went up there to deal with the 'incident' she asked my grandmother what happened.
'he came in and pulled back my sheets and i told him "get outta here you dirty old man"' . ' i hate that man'
-"where'd he touch you"
"i dunno"
my mom tells me all of this last night after her return and laughed at what my grandmother said.
she continued with this
'if i was her age, i would of wanted a man in my room'
(my grandmother hasn't 'been with a man' since my mom was 19- that's a pretty long time )
the man is being moved where he can be under more suppersition
The Zoo is a crazy place ..... ya never know what will happen next.
roommates stealing your remote which somehow works on their t.v. too, you think your doctor who is engaged to someone and 30yrs old is your boyfriend, crazy old men come in your room late at night, you always think it's breakfes time
i don't wanna live in a zoo when i get old.
my mom told me she hopes she never gets like that and if she does she understands if i never come see her or never deal with her
she told me to just put her away.
so my mom got this call the yesterday , there had been an incident with my grandmother (now my grandmother is crazy, she's not all there , she has hulicinations and such , and can't remember alot of things but this time it wasn't a hulicination) so my mom had to go up there and deal with it.

the show last night was nice, QID did an awesome job as usual.
while at the show last night i started thinking- hopefully you all will be able to understand this
::::is it really that hard for someone to say that a band is good even though they don't like them.
you hear alot of people saying oh that band sucks , or they are terrible.
is the band really terrible or does that person just not like them .
is it really that hard to give a good band credit even though you don't like them ?
okie here's my example - i was going to use radiohead but that's too hard to fathom.
lets say somones listening to interpol , you ask em how they liked it - they tell you they suck.
now alot of us know interpol is a good band, they do a very good job. so why can't that person see that.
basiclly also what i'm saying is why can't metal heads semi respect other music. is it so hard to recognize good music.
are they so blind as not being able to see talent????
is it hurting they're image by saying a band is good.
admiting they are good is one thing , it's not saying you like them, so i don't see what the problem is .
i've run into quiet a few people these past few weeks that will dis a band and say their work is sloppy or they suck.
and quiet frankly it's obsurd. they band is most obviously the tightest they've been , and are very talented.
are these people blind and deaf???
i just don't understand.
okie enough of that.
i'm getting my hair cut tomorrow yippy skippy, i think i might look around at haircuts before i go in tomorrow.
i'm in the process of trying to help set up aarons computer so he can actually work.
and the website i'm suppose to finish today , i'm unable to open the old file - which has all the links i need on it.
i think i might watch the recruit tonight - my rents rented it so - it's my chance to see it.
sorry if this is the most boring post you've read in a while but nothins been going on in the last few hours.
oh yeah if u havne't seen it my hair is really dark .... it's kinda purply. chocolate cherry my arse!
michale knott is so good- great musician - if you havne't checked him out please do.
you can also try to check out one of his other bands cush.
strabucks fraps are better than folders javakada's
mernt, so yummy.

You're a real romantic, and a genuinely kind person. You're not too quick on the uptake, but you have a heart of gold. A person of few words, you instead express your emotions through whistles and dance. Some people would call you mentally stunted, but your friends know better- you're just being yourself. |
yeah i found the ultimate quiz !!!!!
SUSIE AND MAGGY < YOU BETTER TAKE THIS ONE!!!!!!
man i rawk.
oh yeah check my archives for other kewl quizes .
i don't have any updates except for my hair and getting ditched by a friend last night - which is really disturbing cause i think alot of this person and i expect more from this person, but like my dad has told me and i am still learning > stop expecting things
my expectations of people are sometimes too high and unrealistic, they are unable to fullfill my expectations - i always end up disapointed , i'm still learning but aren't we all. anways the only reason i'm hurt is because the person didn't have the sense or kindness to let me know we weren't going to hang out instead of just not calling.....but maybe like i said earlier that is my fault for having high expectations-maybe i set myself up for disapointment. Don't worry i'm not depressed, sad, or upset, it's just like okie...i'm not really sure what to think right now.
but anyways i read alot of sites and some of them deal with personal issues others with just updates and what's going on in life.
so today i was going to not write about an update or whatever. but i kinda already failed that i guess. (semi inspired by another site)
i am a happy person. a happy, social, caring, music-loving, affectionate, searching, christian, 19-year-old girl. i am not perfect. i have attachments and addictions (no i'm not a druggie for those of you who don't know me, the addiction battle is one i am currently winning- some of you know what it is or was and i know you are thankful ) and depression at times (i havne't in a while but it's the worst feeling to go thru when it happens-i'm also still learning how to deal with that and not to let it completly run my life at times). i'm easily distracted. i don't always make wise decisions. but if i did than i would be unreal.
God gives me moments of peace, and grace, and mercy, and hope. maybe you can identify, or maybe not at all. i love you no matter what.
and in the end, it doesn't really matter what anyone thinks about me-what matters is what i think of myself and my relationship with God. i'm continually battle with this statement, but i'm living it more and more now than i ever have, i sitll have moments where i worry or care what other people think but i think everyone deals with that at some point.
Jimmy once said to me if things went my way it would suck (instead of God's way) i didn't understand the statement then but now i do. After this past year , i do.
I need to start my quiet time again... God deserves more of my time.
I owe him so much .
I thank him so much for giving me strength and helping make me a stronger person - the trials he put me thru this last year have been amazing - horrible to go thru but the results ARE amazing.
i wonder what this fall holds for me.
I look back and see how much i've changed -and it's all been for the better.
and once again i thank all my freinds who have been there for me and still are
you are all amazing- i know you are prolly getting sick or me saying this but it's true.
i dunno if this blog made any sense but i hope it did .
questions comments - feel free , you know i love hearing from all of you and seeing your posts.
i also look forward each time i am blessed with the chance that i get to see you all or hang out with ya'll
you all mean so much to me, more than you realize.
i'm so greatful and thankful.
you guys rawk my face off.
'father this is all i have, all is yours, even my last breath
from the end of the earth my heart cries
take me 2 the rock that is higher than i
u sure don't need me but for some reason you want me
can i become what you've meant me 2 be
father this is all i own
my soul finds rest in you alone
shelt in my storm
you are my life
lead me to the rock that is higher than i '

okie.... so for the first time since i've been home i'm on the web.....woohoo. awesome
well this has been the most amazing week of my life in a long time .
looking back at everything i see how God is working in my life , and he works amazingly and does a wonderful job. his way is the best way .....my way would suck.......
anyways we're going to cover roughly from june 7th to now .....so hold on to your shorts it's gonna be a bumpy ride ... don't want you to be so blown away that your clothes fall off but i think tha'ts a big posibility.
okie so sonance fest was awesome hilarious and scarry.
fletcher did an amazing set and were hilarious when jesse talked. they had fun and so did we.
also we had gotten there at 12 to start working ...and fletcher "(which was the first band ) didn't go on till 3 ...man ...
so we went to Churches ...and the ladies there were hilarious . they looked at the buttons on my purse and hten asked if we were walking and all these other questions , then they asked about sonance fest ..'are there any black bands playing there' one lady asked the other lady who worked there was like 'naw ..there aint' no blakc bands playiing down there tonight this is a rock concert!' it was awesome so one of the ladys said she was gonna check it out later.
we left and went back and the security guard asked me if i wanted to sell my car , oh yeah and we also before that went to mcdonalds to pick up some food for suma's niece and one of the cashiers asked me if i wanted to sell my car. i'm thinking about putting a sign on it that says not for sale!!! !
so (i just realized i have so much to write about so if i leave stuff out and skip things (just repeated myself) i'm so sorry forgive me.
the best band at sonance fest was deaddlock they did an awesome show , hate to see em go.
we left after that it was about 10 then
but we had an awesome time hanging out with everyone
oh yeah the worst band there ----candlelit dinner - sorry helen and ellen but man .... i was scared and annoyed with them.
sunday
i went with matt to see the italian job and wow i actually felt for the first time it was summer and i was on vacation .
it rocked and the movie was hilarious nad awesome i want one of those cars. they rock
'i had a bad experince....'
so monday we went to bills.
and the trip down there was awesome it was filled with squirt gun action/the beggining of an on-going war , laughter, and stef freaking out everytime we lost maggy. maggy just thought she was so awesome trying to pass us ...but she never did cause we rocked her like a hurricane.
well we arrived down there (gulfport) and we ended up behind as cities burn , we passed them and definatly scared them when we pulled out the guns and squirted them ....man did they jkump . i love those guys.
anyways we pulled up to the wrong house and that was interesting .. it involved stef almost running over t.j......she was mortified.
well bills mom made us the best spegetti ever. (she made it for over 30 pple - she is amazing)
we went to the show- which gettign there was impossible cuase robert was leading (driving hanging out of his car) and we definatly did a big circle and got back to bills but we finally made it to the gig. no thanks to robert. but when we did get to the place and show started we had an awesome time and definatly had a blow out of a squirt gun fight...stef got drentched. len plays dirty btw. and ben liked smashing the guns , that was upsetting - so we had to buy an xtra pack
all the bands did amazing. i feel so lucky, no blessed that God has put all these people in my life and has blessed me to be able to hang out with them and have them as my amazing friends that mean so much to me.
we had so much fun ..... it was he best trip .. i really don't think any blogspot or xanga can do the trip jsutice cause so many htings get left out and u dont' get the total feel but here i am trying it and prolly failing miserably.
anyways we went to ihop after the show and had pretty good conversations and lots of laughes ...
we talked about coffee and jesse - how we gets obessed with words -obsured!!!!! anyways robert left his table and sat with us for a little while cuase they were using big words and he didn't so he left - anyways before he left and went back he asked for a big words to use we gave him indubetely. it was pretty funny when he went back and used it . anyways awesome time at ihop.
we went out in the parking lot and started playing norma jean and doing impressions... you know as cities burn was amazed. i know i was. jesse was jsut awesoem and is awesme . i hope he never changes.
anyways we went back ot bills and we stayed up till 3 or 4. and when we went to the house we found bill asleep on the floor. poor fella all worn out . . we watched spinal tap and kung pow.. need i say more ....
also i had a great talk around two in the kitchen with jimmy- he sang everything. it was awesome - jim you are a great firend.thanks
we woke up to , well i woke up ot bill stealing out squirt guns .... dirty boys... well we all got up had a few laughs got drenched by the boys, the boys also took a picture of bills bootie -- they wrote fletcher rocks on it , by his tatoo.. and took a pic ... 'that had to be so degrading'-len, we then went to brookline pizzaria ... great place great times . said our goodbyes and headed back to jacktown.
so anyways great trip wonderful memories... words can't describe and i know i'm leaving out a ton.
but it was hte best vacation. oh yeah sadly maggy got into a wreak. but thank goodness she , susie , and baskin were okie. the car is totaled but what matters is that everyone made it out okie. and also because of the trip i feel like we are all a little more closer .
so wed i go into work happy as can be and it's so much fun, work is great.
this week i helped matt out with the recital that yamaha studios was putting on. it was great. the kidns were wild but adorable and did an awesome job.
we had fun.
i did that for two days.
friday rawked the hizouse.
we got to see as cities burn again.
i ran merch once again. which i love to do , i have so much fun doing it - thanks guys for wanting me to do it and letting me do it.
anyways the show was great except i wasn't feeling someday carolina - great band i jsut didn't feel it.
anyways all bands did an amazing job and i had a blast. we went to kyles afterwards and it rocked we had a great time getting ot knwo everyone and we all got closer definatly. i love me some as cities burn. they are great guys. ... anwyas we stayed there till 3. but one thing .... garrett..... man ..words cannot describe him except for stay away... he definatly did some crazy stuff and dind't know when to stop. he wouldn't leave t..j. alone ... he flet compeled to hump eveyone .. and grind on a few people.
it was disturbing ... at one point he pulled his ding a ling out ..... i was one of the lucky few that didn't see it .
anyways we left and went to sleep- stef and i - she stayed at my place and we stayed up till 4 something talking about the night. she then had a nightmare about garrett- i woke her up my saying get them away. .. her feet were on me ....weirdest night sleep in a long while.
next morning we ran a few errands ..... got my oil changed - kinda scary the guy who changed it gave off the serial killer vibe. but it was an interesting experience. we then went daddy day shopping. i got my dad an awesome gift. comprised of a martini glass, blues club album- filed with great artist , and light up ice cubes. .... i have a nice presentation - that's what the glass was for . it's gonna look awesome - my mom tells me i'm really creative - rock n roll ... i'm finaly starting to semi believe that.
so anyways after that we go to kyles ot say goodby to everyone .... it was aweosme we all rocked out to the all american rejects - whoda thought. . anyways after that long goodbye and the guys checking out my car - they love it , also abby went with me ot my hosue so i could get her soem clothes to wear she didn't know she was going ot be staying anwyas that's awesome it was funny- hopefully i'll get my shirt back next sat- she said she would so it's all good
anwyasy
hten we went and got hair dye, shampoo, developed pictures, got a straightener, and looked at the pics - wow they are grat - we will have to show some of u (stef and i) then i went to matt v's senior party(which befoe i went inside i spent a good while tlaking on the phone with clay- which was very nice) and it was awesome it was funny watching the guys fall - gracie (his cousin) and i had a great time hanging out and luaghing . i also got to see a video of when matt was litle and he was dancing. it was awesome. then i went home and clay came over and we went to a movie. and hten got soem food and then we jsut went and drove aroudn and taled till 12. it was one of the best converstations in a while. we had a really good time. i hope so see him mroe often. cause it realy rocked .we had a great bonding time . he definatly learned alot more about me.

okie so sonance fest was awesome hilarious and scarry.
fletcher did an amazing set and were hilarious when jesse talked. they had fun and so did we.
also we had gotten there at 12 to start working ...and fletcher "(which was the first band ) didn't go on till 3 ...man ...
so we went to Churches ...and the ladies there were hilarious . they looked at the buttons on my purse and hten asked if we were walking and all these other questions , then they asked about sonance fest ..'are there any black bands playing there' one lady asked the other lady who worked there was like 'naw ..there aint' no blakc bands playiing down there tonight this is a rock concert!' it was awesome so one of the ladys said she was gonna check it out later.
we left and went back and the security guard asked me if i wanted to sell my car , oh yeah and we also before that went to mcdonalds to pick up some food for suma's niece and one of the cashiers asked me if i wanted to sell my car. i'm thinking about putting a sign on it that says not for sale!!! !
so (i just realized i have so much to write about so if i leave stuff out and skip things (just repeated myself) i'm so sorry forgive me.
the best band at sonance fest was deaddlock they did an awesome show , hate to see em go.
we left after that it was about 10 then
but we had an awesome time hanging out with everyone
oh yeah the worst band there ----candlelit dinner - sorry helen and ellen but man .... i was scared and annoyed with them.
sunday
i went with matt to see the italian job and wow i actually felt for the first time it was summer and i was on vacation .
it rocked and the movie was hilarious nad awesome i want one of those cars. they rock
'i had a bad experince....'
so monday we went to bills.
and the trip down there was awesome it was filled with squirt gun action/the beggining of an on-going war , laughter, and stef freaking out everytime we lost maggy. maggy just thought she was so awesome trying to pass us ...but she never did cause we rocked her like a hurricane.
well we arrived down there (gulfport) and we ended up behind as cities burn , we passed them and definatly scared them when we pulled out the guns and squirted them ....man did they jkump . i love those guys.
anyways we pulled up to the wrong house and that was interesting .. it involved stef almost running over t.j......she was mortified.
well bills mom made us the best spegetti ever. (she made it for over 30 pple - she is amazing)
we went to the show- which gettign there was impossible cuase robert was leading (driving hanging out of his car) and we definatly did a big circle and got back to bills but we finally made it to the gig. no thanks to robert. but when we did get to the place and show started we had an awesome time and definatly had a blow out of a squirt gun fight...stef got drentched. len plays dirty btw. and ben liked smashing the guns , that was upsetting - so we had to buy an xtra pack
all the bands did amazing. i feel so lucky, no blessed that God has put all these people in my life and has blessed me to be able to hang out with them and have them as my amazing friends that mean so much to me.
we had so much fun ..... it was he best trip .. i really don't think any blogspot or xanga can do the trip jsutice cause so many htings get left out and u dont' get the total feel but here i am trying it and prolly failing miserably.
anyways we went to ihop after the show and had pretty good conversations and lots of laughes ...
we talked about coffee and jesse - how we gets obessed with words -obsured!!!!! anyways robert left his table and sat with us for a little while cuase they were using big words and he didn't so he left - anyways before he left and went back he asked for a big words to use we gave him indubetely. it was pretty funny when he went back and used it . anyways awesome time at ihop.
we went out in the parking lot and started playing norma jean and doing impressions... you know as cities burn was amazed. i know i was. jesse was jsut awesoem and is awesme . i hope he never changes.
anyways we went back ot bills and we stayed up till 3 or 4. and when we went to the house we found bill asleep on the floor. poor fella all worn out . . we watched spinal tap and kung pow.. need i say more ....
also i had a great talk around two in the kitchen with jimmy- he sang everything. it was awesome - jim you are a great firend.thanks
we woke up to , well i woke up ot bill stealing out squirt guns .... dirty boys... well we all got up had a few laughs got drenched by the boys, the boys also took a picture of bills bootie -- they wrote fletcher rocks on it , by his tatoo.. and took a pic ... 'that had to be so degrading'-len, we then went to brookline pizzaria ... great place great times . said our goodbyes and headed back to jacktown.
so anyways great trip wonderful memories... words can't describe and i know i'm leaving out a ton.
but it was hte best vacation. oh yeah sadly maggy got into a wreak. but thank goodness she , susie , and baskin were okie. the car is totaled but what matters is that everyone made it out okie. and also because of the trip i feel like we are all a little more closer .
so wed i go into work happy as can be and it's so much fun, work is great.
this week i helped matt out with the recital that yamaha studios was putting on. it was great. the kidns were wild but adorable and did an awesome job.
we had fun.
i did that for two days.
friday rawked the hizouse.
we got to see as cities burn again.
i ran merch once again. which i love to do , i have so much fun doing it - thanks guys for wanting me to do it and letting me do it.
anyways the show was great except i wasn't feeling someday carolina - great band i jsut didn't feel it.
anyways all bands did an amazing job and i had a blast. we went to kyles afterwards and it rocked we had a great time getting ot knwo everyone and we all got closer definatly. i love me some as cities burn. they are great guys. ... anwyas we stayed there till 3. but one thing .... garrett..... man ..words cannot describe him except for stay away... he definatly did some crazy stuff and dind't know when to stop. he wouldn't leave t..j. alone ... he flet compeled to hump eveyone .. and grind on a few people.
it was disturbing ... at one point he pulled his ding a ling out ..... i was one of the lucky few that didn't see it .
anyways we left and went to sleep- stef and i - she stayed at my place and we stayed up till 4 something talking about the night. she then had a nightmare about garrett- i woke her up my saying get them away. .. her feet were on me ....weirdest night sleep in a long while.
next morning we ran a few errands ..... got my oil changed - kinda scary the guy who changed it gave off the serial killer vibe. but it was an interesting experience. we then went daddy day shopping. i got my dad an awesome gift. comprised of a martini glass, blues club album- filed with great artist , and light up ice cubes. .... i have a nice presentation - that's what the glass was for . it's gonna look awesome - my mom tells me i'm really creative - rock n roll ... i'm finaly starting to semi believe that.
so anyways after that we go to kyles ot say goodby to everyone .... it was aweosme we all rocked out to the all american rejects - whoda thought. . anyways after that long goodbye and the guys checking out my car - they love it , also abby went with me ot my hosue so i could get her soem clothes to wear she didn't know she was going ot be staying anwyas that's awesome it was funny- hopefully i'll get my shirt back next sat- she said she would so it's all good
anwyasy
hten we went and got hair dye, shampoo, developed pictures, got a straightener, and looked at the pics - wow they are grat - we will have to show some of u (stef and i) then i went to matt v's senior party(which befoe i went inside i spent a good while tlaking on the phone with clay- which was very nice) and it was awesome it was funny watching the guys fall - gracie (his cousin) and i had a great time hanging out and luaghing . i also got to see a video of when matt was litle and he was dancing. it was awesome. then i went home and clay came over and we went to a movie. and hten got soem food and then we jsut went and drove aroudn and taled till 12. it was one of the best converstations in a while. we had a really good time. i hope so see him mroe often. cause it realy rocked .we had a great bonding time . he definatly learned alot more about me.

i'm so happy the geology book works finally!!! woohoo
well yesterday i discovered i have 6 weeks till i leave for maine and boston, when i return i will have 3 weeks till i go back and well stay . wow.... i can't believe it. it's so close.
supposedly i just graduated from the university of north carolina in charlotte, northeastern thinks i am coming from there , they have all my credits listed from there .... in a few days they'll find out it was really belhaven and someone made a typo when they were possessing my data.
so add north carolina to my list of colleges....
we went swimming yesterday. (Ruth, Neil-he dind't stay long, Bernard, and I) bernard is obsessed with my dog. We went to lay out and well the sun decided to play hide and seek with us , we were not amused and decided to nap . well when we all came to bernard was asking if we could bring out the dog so he could play with it . so i eventually caved and let Lickey out (yes that's the dog's name -lickey) anyways they both had so much fun, bernard wore lickey out. it was hilarious they ran around and lickey got the hose out and bernard played with him and the hose snapped in half - it was amazing and bernard decided to start jumping in the pool trying to get lickey to jump in well lickey jsut barked alot but then bernard decided to flip into the pool and lickey went crazy and started barking and fell in. i coudlnt' believe it so then they both ran around the pool and got in the shallow in and bernard kept calling for the dog to get in, well lickey actually jumped in and started swimming. it was hialrious . ruth took some pictures -can't wait to see em. lickey was so worn out he just lied in his bed all afternoon and night.
Bernard and Ruth and everyone else in their house are getting a bulldog puppy.....my goodness
bernard is going to have so much fun , and that poor puppy is not going to know what happened to him.
I'm suppose to be hanging out with Matt tonight ...fun stuff - it'll be good to see him again.

so everyones gone to ole miss , and i thought i was not going to do anything last night ... which i was okie with but then kirsten called and she asked me to go to the steam room.. i got to see my belhaven buddies : kirsten, jodie, jamie, kendra, paxton, ruth, arnoldo, tennis dude. it was great. i'm suppose to go swimming with ruth and bernard and neil today.. which will be great.
it was really great to see everyone. i'm suppose to go stay with kirsten this week. maybe tonight. i jsut hate to have to get up at 7 and wake pple up.i went to work late today . i got here round 9. mernt and it's 10.30 now and i havne't started doing the geology book thing. i have to finish it today. I'm so excited bout going to Gulfport it will be so much fun to get to hang out with all those amazing pple.
i like muffins but they are better if you cook them in a oven, cause if u do it in the microwave and nuc em then when they cool down they just aren't as good as if u actually cooked them, they have a diferent taste when they cool down. if that makes any since at all.
(i'm eating a muffin i nuc-ed earlier and it's not as good as when when i usually just cook it in the oven)
oh well.
"hey you , you've got something... better start running"

yesterday was amazing to say the least..
i went graduation shopping and i sent off my trascript to northeastern.
these are the following gifts i got for the fellaz which came in handy last night .. i got them things they actually really needed right then .
Jimmy- guitar pics and holder - 15 pics, he said he only had 2 left.
Len- drumm sticks- very nice
Jesse- guitar strings which he went ahead and restringed his guitar with.
Hal and Mal's was packed . which was good.
i know they sold alot of cd's. after just about an hour of being there they had sold over 150.
The cd of course sounds amazing ...and i'm very proud of em.
Those boys have been thru alot with me . great memories.
Jimmy has prolly been the most amazing, he's been there for me thru everything.
Prolly Him and Baskin are the two that understand me the most and know me the best.
they are the ones that know something is wrong even without me saying anything
even when i try to act like everything is great and i couldn't be happier
they are the only ones who know...God truly has blessed me with them. I'm very thankful and greatful for them.
i'll prolly do a review of it and try not to be too bias.
Stef. definatly stayed in the mosh pit the whole time and started bootie dancing.. it was hilarious.
at one point she lost a sandal but it took her 15 minutes to realize she had.
i have to video tape another confrence today at 1.30
hmm i forgot to pick up my art work at school... prolly should do that today.

i saw finding nemo and let me tell u it was wonderful
fish are friends not food!
i just about went into an all time low this weekend as depression almost set in ....
its that whole drowning feeling ... and feeling like i can't breathe and night before going to sleep
I talked with basking for about 2 hours outside by house sat. night
it was really good .. i needed it and i knew he would understand and have good advice cause he went thru something similar.
he understands my pain really well i guess you could say.
the next day i could breathe......
so i'm getting over it ....trying to ...taking each day
every day i'll get up, and i'll breath all day, one day i won't have to tell myself to get up , and breathe all day,
i told basking i didn't know what i was suppose to do
he asked me do i have to know
....i guess i really don't .....i think i can accept that now
put full trust in knowing everything will be ok.
i need to stop questioning the friends thing and just deal with the last few months i have of it (2)
baskin understood that aspect ...suprisingly he's felt the same way too.
i'm looking forward to life in boston.. i'm not worried bout making friends .. at least i have hollie up there , and rachel baker wants me to call her before i leave... so yeah , she was really nice
i look forward to not knowing what's going to happen.
i'm going to do the trascript thing today...which makes it offical. cause they kind of need that.
i'm going to gulfport monday (next week) which will be nice, if possible i may just leave a few days early and go visit pple, but i kind of want to ride down there with stef...it'll be more fun that way i believe but i'm looking forward to it .
i have sonance fest this weekend....gotta put up those flyers this week. mernt. i wonder how it will go
i asked my mother if she had ever had a broken heart this weekend, if so by who , and how long did it take to get over.
it was a good mother daughter moment.. one of the few we rarely have.
i then asked about dad, how they met and how she knew he was the one. [i had never asked that before]
They met in graduate school. a friend had asked them both to dinner. my mom didn't really like him at first , she thought he was too silly, too goofy. she did think he was attractive. well they started dating eventually and they broke up alot, but they kept going back to eachother each time. One time after they broke up my dad had no intention of talking to mom ever again (he went to miami for an internship- mom went to birmingham) but they did , he went up to visit her in birmingham and they got back together, and of course later broke up and got back together. They finally got engaged and in the middle of it my dad broke it off. two weeks later he came back and told her he got cold feet and she took him back. She told me she just hung in there the whole time.
When they did get married one of my fathers friends came up and told him two things :
1) he never thought the two of them (my mom and dad) would have gotten married.
and
2) that this was proof that nothing would break them up now because the odds had been against the two of them and everything had gotten in their way but they worked thru it and made it.
wow
my dad (who joined in on the converstation ) told me that love was not enough, that you had to work thru things to make it last
and that's why he and mom made it.
he also told me about how crazy mom use to be and spontaneous. "she use to not be the tight-ass she is today"
one weekend while dad and his friend were picking up some beer before going to pick up mom, wayne told dad that they should askmary eveylen (my mom) when she got in the car if she wanted to go to new orleans. they wanted to do this because they knew she'd come up with all these excuses (she had a paper due monday ), they thought it would be fun to mess with her, so when she got in the car they asked her and she said sure. well they stopped again and went inside to get more drinks. wayne asked my dad now what. dad replied we go to new orleans.... the drove back late that night and wayne was falling asleep at the wheel and the side of the car ran into a bridge.. dad woke up and drove back....
i think i'm going to start asking more questions and getting them to tell more stories about their college years.

one weekend while dad and his friend were picking up some beer before going to pick up mom, wayne told dad that they should askmary eveylen (my mom) when she got in the car if she wanted to go to new orleans. they wanted to do this because they knew she'd come up with all these excuses (she had a paper due monday ), they thought it would be fun to mess with her, so when she got in the car they asked her and she said sure. well they stopped again and went inside to get more drinks. wayne asked my dad now what. dad replied we go to new orleans.... the drove back late that night and wayne was falling asleep at the wheel and the side of the car ran into a bridge.. dad woke up and drove back....
i think i'm going to start asking more questions and getting them to tell more stories about their college years.
