About Me


I like my Local on the 8s , sweet tea, MTV marathons (I know I know), the color turquoise, sarcasm, my green coat, dancing like a black woman, Josh Groban 's voice, word puzzles, crude humor, channel A-19 on Plano cable, wit, Jaeger bombs, new shower liners, the fact that Hulk Hogan wears a fanny pack, things that are free, procrastination, Cadbury creme eggs, flip-flops, Seinfeld , Sharpie ultra fine point markers , Budapest, Checkers fries , listening to black people impersonate white folks, Rhythm & Brews , sales, Gap's Om, Movin107.5 commercials, weddings, presents (buying, receiving, wrapping), boys with dark hair and good teeth, hearing little kids laugh, tulips , cheese, dangly earrings, CitiBank Identity Theft commercials , being nerdy, Christmas, Suddenly Salad (ranch and bacon), shi-shi , the name 'Mary Dell,' being a brownberry, making lists, reading the blurb on hotornot like I think the person in the picture would say it, the cello, comment cards at restaurants, a man in a suit, symmetry, Dr. Pepper , watching toddlers run, guys with mohawks, the Magic Bullet infomercial, plucking my eyebrows, Steinmart , music on military commercials, organization, fried grits , zip lines , spider solitaire, rain, Davangela '06, laughing, and sneezing.
I dislike bananas, people who say 'irregardless' or 'funnest,' bad drivers (at or below the speed limit, no blinker, driving with the blinker on constantly, turning at .4mph, stopping 7 car lengths away at a red light), humidity, dying plants, liars, static, wasps, waking up before my alarm and still being tired, halitosis, cold toilet seats, Jessica on Laguna Beach , roaches, the new facebook , tardiness, mint chocolate chip ice cream, parents who spell their kids' names oddly, razor burn, bosses who don't do their jobs, really thin toilet paper, Comcast 's rising rates, stupidity, choreography in gymnastics, 'baby' as a term of endearment, PDA, my left pointer fingernail, sketch folks, tattoos on men's calves , blisters, hair in the sink or on a bar of soap, being involved in drama, bad grammar, private profiles, soggy bread, people who miss belt loops, Midas , and being lost.

Stop Smoking

I've been putting off posting again until I had news about my grandfather. So almost a month ago, they found a tumor in his lung, supposedly. Then they weren't sure if it was actually in his lung or j...

MOB

What a week. Tuesday, I was supposed to fly home at 3:30. I got a VM from AA around 12:45 telling me they had cancelled my flight and rebooked me for 6:00. Oh well. At least I wasn't already at the ai...

Almost

Almost. Seems like a fitting word for life right now. I'm almost done with this semester. I had my last final last Thursday (the 24th), but my last paper isn't due until Monday. Have I finished it? Of...

Too Much Stuff

So it's been a crazy couple of days. I forgot to mention yesterday something about my car. I was driving yesterday morning to school, and I heard this weird sound when I would brake from going fast. S...

Spring Break 2008

Long time - I know. Sorry. To make up for it, I’m including some visuals. Last Thursday, I left work a little early because UTD was closing early because of the winter storm warning. It took me ...

Similes and Metaphors

My dad sends me lots of those annoying email forwards (well, only the ones he deems good), but I thought this one was funny. I love these. Every year, English teachers from across the c...

Missing

I remember some of the stuff I forgot to mention in the previous blog. Over the break, I painted Ell's room. It's a dark blue and looks good, I think. I slightly rearranged some stuff, and you can act...
