all about the convos

convo between bank teller and husband and wife: today i went in to the bank, i will admit i did the blatant stare and listened to the convo two tellers over. if i eavesdropped correctly. it was a new married couple working on changing all their information over. Instead of the wife changing her last name, it was the husband that was changing his name. it was quite funny to hear the teller say, "well you will need your maiden name...well i guess do you call it that...giggle giggle." AWKWARD!
convo between father and daughter: so my dad is super excited that over labor day weekend i will be staying in traverse city with my bogo...just the-two-of-us. just-the-two-of-us. so he was informing me that i will have to turn the water back on. i was like but dadddd whine whine.. i have never turned it on before. my internal conversation was with myself went more like this. "turn water on?? how? where? do what? i am not even sure what the water tank looks like, will i know the difference between that and the furnace? and just flip a handle? well what handle? ok just agree with him...my bogo will probably know!? hopefully? ok cant be this hard i am college graduate" ok dad sounds good! ekkk!
convo between me and my twitter: i want a dq blizzard like Pauletta wants a hot dog on fourth of july. real bad!!

britney's one two three

pandora has a been a new thing in my life. I enjoy listening to it on my long runs. So when i first downloaded the ap to my phone i put in lady gaga radio and that is the only music type i can seem to get. regardless for the most part they are usually songs right up my alley. anywho one that keeps playing is Britney spears. one two three...and others. gimme gimme more. its Britney bitch.
so a little one two three for you.
[one] yesterday while i was finishing my long run i saw a lady walking her dog. She was a tad over weight, so it was a good for you moment until i noticed what was in her hand....a VERY LARGE mccafe coffee with whip creme. hmm seems like an oxymoron to me. but who i am i to judge i ran then had ice cream cone and lg diet coke for lunch on the way to the beach! :)
[two] clean clean clean. I did it in shifts and finished it off today. had been a while! Not sure why i choose to clean on a 80 plus day, bc i need to do it....BUT then decided to get very inspired and do the deep clean. like move the couch and clean out all under the cushions. my rewards: popcorn, dust, hair, trix cereal, and the big winner a dime!
[three] it begins to TOMORROW. tomorrow tomorrow i will love you tomorrow...its only a day away!! us open 2010!!! two weeks of pure tennis happiness. It is pretty much the only thing that was good about going back to school, back in the day! but since there is no more school, it is even more enjoyable. I have the DVR all set for coverage from 11am to 11pm! bring it on!!

wise words:
If anyone tells you that you can't achieve your dreams, or puts you down, make your hand into a claw and tell them you're a little monster and you can do whatever you want. --- Lady Gaga

Moving up the pinky

I received a lesson from my madre on where my destinations of the weekend would take place. She did this geography lesson by using the handy dandy MI back your hand demonstration. So we started out on the hand and headed towards the knuckle region in Grand haven. A last minute fishing adventure with my uncle. B, mom, dad, and their two friends headed out to the big seas, it was a wavy adventure to start out, but fun. We caught a total of two fish between us [b and lynn and then lynns husband bob] then it was a wrap! Spent the night at my aunt and uncles and then ran my longest run yet. 16…my parents biked along, which was nice. Then we packed up and referred to the hand map and headed up to pentwater to stay the night with my uncle mike and aunt terry. I had never been to pentwater before but it is cute little town. We spent the rest of the day biking, shopping, eating, and relaxing in preparation for the next morning. Because jeff and my uncle were in the Ludington tri. So we were up and at them early Sunday and headed to lundington to cheer them on. They both did a wonderful job [and may have giving me the inspiration to make it the 2011 goal] it was a fun lake shore filled weekend!
[so vern are there any milk duds in the box or is that our little secret...how about them fish. did you reel them in or did the swim away from the red fox!?]

[we got boys, so no worries about the waves!]

[is there a FISH ON!! nope just pretend]

[ohhh but he is so cute! smelly hands! and rj told me i was too girly..hello i am holding the dead thing]
