Quote of the year

A compilation of memorable QOTDs 2003:

someone else: Did you go drinking last night?
me: No…
someone else: Well, you sure look like it.

enjanerd: i’ll be sure to bring that up with him
enjanerd: i want more power
t*e*f*d: thats almost scary
enjanerd: why’s that?
t*e*f*d: normally you just want more cookies
enjanerd: haha but with power comes cookies

“why can’t boys just throw themselves at me and then read my mind and go away when i don’t like them?”

“i mean just sex every now in then would be okay, especially with hot girls who are dumb.”

“it always surprises me when i remember you are a girl..”

“Hey baby, If you were a function, i’d be an integral so i could be the area under your curves!”

“take two lesbians and call me in the morning.”

“why do i need to know her name? next thing you will tell me is i have to care about her feelings”

“My date’s dead. Do you want to come home with me?”

“im sure you could make it as a high priced call girl”

girl: You should ask him out. You’d look good together.
me: Ok. *turns to boy* Do you want to go out on a date?
boy: Well, yeah. Oh, but not with you.

“Oh my goodness… you’re typing at, like, mach 2!”

“Are you wearing makeup? What, are you being a girl for Halloween?”

And the quote of the year:
“Tony Blair would make the best President of the United States.”

Stay tuned for highlights of 2003 and goals for 2004…

Milk: $3.09

Butter: $2.28
Guilt-free cookies: Priceless

I stopped by the castle today on my way home from work to pick up my cookie sheet and a cookie cookbook. Hung out with my pappy, granny, and big sis for a bit before heading out. Stopped by the supermarket to pick up some milk and butter (cookie ingredients, if you didn’t already catch on). Go through the line… $3.21. Huh..? Ok… Walk out of the store, then realize that the milk cost $3.09. How is that possible? She didn’t charge me for the butter. Shoot. Keep walking away. Don’t feel bad. She *gave* you that butter. It will make for tasty cookies. Sigh… I don’t know how I turned out like this. My parents sure didn’t raise me to be a sucker. First slave children, then sweat shops… now dairy products?? I don’t even like kids. Ok, maybe a little if they’re well-behaved and quiet. And don’t steal my cookies. Anyway… Sucker.

In other news, groomswomen now have to wear dresses. No wedding pants. How disappointing. -J.

My inner child is ten years old!

The adult world is pretty irrelevant to me. Whether I’m off on my bicycle (or pony) exploring, lost in a good book, or giggling with my best friend, I live in a world apart, one full of adventure and wonder and other stuff adults don’t understand.

Lol… finally, someone who understands why I have so much trouble finding an attractive, asian boy. Granted, that puts me in the category of ugly asian girl, but I can deal with that. :) -J.

You won’t like me when I’m angry

AAARRRRGGHHHHHhhhh!!!! Ok, so I was having such a nice day… Went to get tickets from the Kennedy Center and in my idiot savant nature, I made it there and back without getting lost or having to consult a map or anything. It was quite amazing, I assure you. Anyway, stopped by my parents’ place to say hello and steal some snacks, but my parents were out, so I ended up watching the Sound of Music with my grandmother. Which was ok, since I haven’t seen it in years. But then I start losing my mind. They’re going to beat the crazy out of me if it’s the next thing they do. GAAAHHH. Anyway, left so I wouldn’t reach the crazy of no return. Got back to my place. Not only is the neighbor parked so their car is blocking our driveway, but there’s someone else driving down the wrong way on the one-way street. And *they* are flashing their lights at *me* while I’m parking, as though I’m standing in the way of them breaking traffic laws. These people make me so angry. Must … be… festive… Going to eat cookies and pretend the world isn’t stupid. -j.

 

why am i still up?

pictures are uploading now. should be accessible when i wake up. :) -J.

 

…??

What is this? And how did I get on there? Strange…

 

I <3 cookies

So, went over to Roy’s last night to watch the sad, sad game… Then played some equally bad pool with him, JL2, and TCI (the Crazy Indian). Stayed up gossiping for a while, then headed home. Got up today to have lunch with the relatives before they skipped town. Played some DVD Pop Culture Trivial Pursuit, which went pretty quickly since we had teams of 4. Surprisingly, I even knew some of the answers. But yeah… pop culture… not nearly as challenging as regular trivial pursuit. It just reminds me how little TV I watch. Well, little compared to “average” Americans, I guess. Anyway, got home and spent the rest of the afternoon napping. Probably going to spend my evening reading, watching football, and eating cookies. I know I say this a lot, but I have to say it again… I love my life. Hope everyone is enjoying their holiday weekend… Happy last day of Chanukah and happy Kwanzaa! :) -J.

 

Last week’s adventures Part IV of IV-12/22/2003

Thursday - Spent the morning packing up and cleaning up the house before trekking back to MD. Got in at about 2 or so in the afternoon, leaving plenty of daylight for… *flying*!! Jas’s grandpappy is a flight instructor and has his own plane. So, when we got back, he took me up for a little while in his plane. While we were on the ground, he explained to me what all the dials meant and how the controls work. Told me to sit in the pilot seat so I would be able to see everything better. Then he explained how to take off… then we did. Once we reached altitude, he said I could take the controls! Pick a direction to fly in… and go. It was *awesome*! :) Definitely the highlight of my trip. After that, headed home. Driving across the Bay Bridge, I thought up a new thing to worry about. As though it weren’t enough that I’m afraid of choking in my car and dying in a horrible explosion of a car accident or drowning or suffocating… no no. Choking in my car and driving off a bridge in a horrible explosion of a car accident and surviving that to be thrown into winter cold water, where I die of hypothermia as I wait for help to come rescue me somewhere along my swim to shore. Gosh I’m festive today. Anyway, I got home safe and sound (as can be deduced by my lack of stories to the contrary since then). And here I am. :) -J.

 

Last week’s adventures Part III of IV-12/17/2003

Wednesday - Ventured out to watch the re-enactment of the Wright Brothers flight. It was alright when we left the house. A little bit overcast, but by the time we got on the shuttle bus it was raining. And by the time we got to Kill Devil Hills, it was pretty much pouring. It rained for most of the time we were there. John Travolta was there as master of ceremonies in the morning. He left for the afternoon so he could do a flyby. The president spoke and then he ran away before they decided whether they were going to attempt the flight or not. The rain let up a little right before the first reenactment was scheduled, but the wind wasn’t up, so they said they weren’t going to do it. I went off to mail some postcards and buy some more and we hung out another hour or so… then decided not to stand around in wet clothes anymore. Got out of there and then heard on the radio that they were making a failed attempt. Too bad… Not enough wind. Didn’t really matter that it was raining, since they wet down the wings before flying anyway. But they need the wind to get enough lift to take off. 4pm attempt failed as well. Took a 3 hour nap. Went to watch Something’s Gotta Give with the elder folk (don’t tell them I called them that. They’ll never forgive me.). It was pretty good. Was somewhat representative of the differences between Mindless and my dating philosophies. Entertaining at least. That’s about all for today. G’nite! :) -J.

 

Hokie hokie hokie

Last game of the year tonight for the Hokies. Some no-name bowl, so hopefully they have a chance of not messing up. ;) Anyway, yesterday was very cool. Pretty much family day all day. Gathered early with my sis and bro to collect presents and head over to the castle. My mommy did most of the cooking for the day. Relatives from NJ came down to visit and hang out. We had an awards ceremony thing for our football pool. It was quite entertaining. Some of the prize categories included most improved, most [creative] screenname(s), best without winning a week. Also received some very cool gifts this year. Biggest surprise: *digital camera* from my sister! Others included… a cute comforter with penguins on it, a memory book (kind of a photo album type thing), best buy giftcard, fuzzy pajama pants, a water bottle (for when I actually start exercising again), some chocolate, and a fru-fru smelling candle. Funniest present of the year: my sister giving my parents a card redeemable for one dinner visit per week for 2004. (Void if more than one evite is sent out.) Most entertaining present: Hokie Pokie Elmo from Planned to Nothing. After the present thing, went with one of my cousins to go see LOTR. I’ve been busy/not willing to commit 4 hours toward going to see this movie, so I hadn’t gotten around to seeing it yet. But everyone wanted to discuss the movie and I was being a hindrance, so we went to go watch. Got back, did the dinner thing, and then played Trivial Pursuit for a few hours. That’s about it for the highlights. For those of you working today, be sure to make time for a nice nap! :) -J.
