what's a girl to do

Thu, 19 Mar 2009 20:29:45 GMT

so months from now will be the wienies. and i'm at a loss, faithful few. mike, hannah, b. rod., josh, kylie, cara...other people.

so you know me. i'm trying to think of something to top (or at least be as awesome as) all of the previous years, but my brain is getting tired of it. at present i've only got some ideas.

the bowler, from mystery men
or
pepperann
or
megara from hercules
or
the witches from hocus pocus
or
josie and the pussycats
or
jack and sally

now just to refresh our memories.

in previous years i've been
red fraggle
zoe washburn
saddam hussein

and i can't be a ninja turtle again. nor can i be velma again so that's ruled out. there's no repeating of costumes for this lady. so i'm gonna need some suggestions. i can't promise i'll take them. in fact, you know i won't take them, but you'll probably get me to come up with some other idea that's even better. doesn't that sound like an important thing to be a part of.

so it's spring break. *booby flash* spring break! woo! and i love the holidays as much as the next lady, but i'm a little cheesed that i could have been in florida this week, but i was mislead into thinking i was going to be doing shoots until tomorrow. and that i'd have to actually be at those shoots. i found out thursday i so didn't have to be at the shoots that ended YESTERDAY. so i'm spending the holidays in my living room watching crappy television. though i do get to work with the kidlets at good shepherd for their palm sunday performance. i'm pretty excited about that. so i guess i owe mike a thank you for getting me to work with small children in a fun capacity because now i love it, and miss it. so i'm looking forward to that. so let's well, it's time.

things that are still good about worthwhile about the holidays:
-working with the good shep kidlets
-hanging out with brett and latino
-hanging out with brett and dirk
-hanging out with brett
-hanging out with brett and adrian
-mystery men with bada
-baths any and every day i want them
-bonfires
-maybe some time with ben and justin
-baths
-sleeeeeeping
-baths.

i love the holidays even if i'm not in florida

i got an instant message from my mom today, which is most definitely not unusual.

"I had a dream last night that McCann was writing a paper for capstone on skirts"

about 5 minutes later

"I kept thinking of other uses for the word skirt - like skirt the issue or skirt steak"

one foggy night

Fri, 05 Dec 2008 02:51:05 GMT

one foggy night the houses of fisher and friesen began to feud again. friesen with their pure blood mania, were unaware they had a squib in their midst, a squib who went about calling pure bloods of fisher "mudbloods", hurting many feelings. things escalated.
this particular fisher sent her mother (who is NOT a muggle) an owl (that's like a text, to you muggles).
fisher: wand at the ready, mum.

about an hour later the fisher received this owl back from her mother:
there is a patronus across the pond.

fisher: no dementors will bother you tonight

mum: there are two patronuses across the pond.

fisher: you're so safe!

i love me mum
