With a Little Help From my Friends

"Spoon... spoon... spoon.... spoon!"
Jane: "I'm going to give you a mustache!"

"I'm Stuck on You Like Glue Somehow"

Before I tell my story let me give you the background of my friend Emily. She was new to CHS a couple of weeks ago, so I asked her to eat lunch with my friends and me. She's a nice girl; we have a couple of things in common. Emily doesn't talk much, though.

So I walk up to our lunch spot and Emily is sitting there. I say a couple things to her and whatnot. A couple of minutes later she picks up this beanie baby squirrel and sets it on my lap.

I look at her then the squirrel awkwardly. Then, the beanie baby tips over.

Emily: "Ooops. The squirrel fell."

Me: (picking up the beanie baby and handing it to her) "Wow, that's a really great squirrel."

How in the world do I respond to such actions? Emily seemed like a nice, fairly normal (what's the real definition of normal anyway?) girl. I guess we reached a certain level of friendship that she thought it was the time to break out the squirrel... who knows.

That was probably the most awkward moment I've experienced in a long, long while. I did all I could not to break down right there. She probably would have been offended by my laughter.

Happy 17th birthday Nick Jonas. Thank you for making music and breathing oxygen. I enjoy your existence... a lot.

Play practice is going nicely I believe. Working with little kids really tests your patience, but you just have to remember that this is their first show. Right now it's 1:02 Sunday afternoon. I'm not-so patiently waiting for the clock to 3:30 when we will be leaving for Gordonsville. Spending time with my family is pretty much the greatest thing ever. True story.
I just had this ever so rad idea of putting a list of songs that are on my playlist that you need to listen to. You can find all these songs on this page her where my playlist resides.
And... go:
Congratulaions by Blue October (you can find this nearer to the bottom)
Can't Let Go by Landon Pigg
If It Works by the Tokyo Police Club
No Rain by the Blind Melons
Yellow (acoustic) by Coldplay
Starlit Nights by AJ Rafael
Only Got One by Frou Frou
Boston by Augustana

Type in "purple bananas" if you listened to one or more of these songs. Thanks a billion and two! :{)

So, this guy and I BFFs. We're pretty much inseparable.


iPod on random.

Thanks so much to the rad girl who kept putting her hands in my pictures...
