  • “I don’t know what tomorrow brings- it’s alive with such possibilities.” –Bright Eyes-


     


    After being accused of updating a billion times a day, I’m feeling insecure about posting so regularly… do you guys think I’m a loser?! I enjoy Xanga immensely but perhaps I should find a new writing outlet…?


     


    On this Big/Little Appreciation Day, I extend massive thank-you’s to my awesome Littles, Melissa, who got me a Chester the Cheetah chip clip, among other things, & Megan, who made me a kickass Scrabble-board collage of “us” words. I love my Sig Kap fam & the corndog nuggets at BW3’s & large booths & a giraffe that is accidentally a horse.

    I helped a lady named Mumba Mumba tonight. My thoughts on this are as follows:


    ·         Did this woman originally only have one name & when she came to the US she was too lazy to think of a surname?


    ·         I wonder if she mumbles. That would be verbal irony.


    ·         What would it be like to be tribal?


    o        I wouldn’t want strange, large piercings


    o        Or sacrifices or anything


    ·         Whatever happened to Samantha Mumba?


    ((( /  / )))


     


    How come children’s books so frequently portray all animals as human-sized? I mean, a bear & a rabbit could be friends, yes, but even so, they would never be the same size as each other, much less as one of us. I think that this is a tricky literary phenomenon that may be deceiving our children in regards to animal dimensions.

    A classmate recommended to me a poem that he thought might help me deal with Dave’s death. The book came in today & the poem is, well, amazing. As cheesy as it sounds, I’m finding that every day brings a certain amount of healing. For every two steps back there is, at least, one step forward, & for that I thank God & my own resilience.

  • You have too many loyal readers to not post as often as you do.  Either way...since when are you concerned about being a "loser?"  Haha- just kidding- love you!!!  Keep writing, though...you're incredibly popular on xanga.com.  I mean...you totally get my vote for eprom queen...

  • oh, scheisse. i enjoy your writing. don't take me seriously, and don't write less.

  • Yep.  We hate your writing, which is why we comment all the time.  NO!  We love you.  You're the only one with a life interesting enough to update that much.  Not that you update a lot, either, now that I think about it.

  • If it's on your mind, you gotta get it out, who cares if you update regularly. I think it'd be worse if you didn't update for days at a time.

  • hey thanks for the comment! and its not bad to update regularly...i would cept i'm too lazy lol. my mom's baby was a girl and they named her teresa blaise. i like the quote things at the top of each post of urs...their nice. k lataas!

  • I hate that about cartoon animals too.  Grr!  And what's with the little animals always looking so happy?  Animals can't grin.  That's so misleading.  LOL  That's it.  I'm quitting my job to become a lobbyist against cartoon animals. 

  • Katie..... I miss you just wanted to say ...hope all is well :)
