My Life in My Own Words.....
My World News Tonight
Thu, March 27, 2008 - 9:49 PMDillon and his teammates, Colin, Jeremy, and Levy took first place in the Current Events contest at the U.I.L. Competion today. The go to the regional comepetition in Stephenville next...Proud of those boyos.
Craig donated blood for the first time today...Did yo know you only have to be 17 to donate...I was always told you have to be 18...Shows how nuch I know, right?...He donated red blood cells..Twice...He's a big boy...I was very proud of him for realizing how important donating blood is.
Rachel and I performed our first duet at Kismet is Dallas (Carrollton) last weekend...I don't have to be nervous when I dance with her..She freaks out enough for both of us and I get to be calm...We had a great time and have been getting lots of very nice compliments from people...Everyone has been so nice and very receptive to us...We both really appreicate it....She and I will be performing for our Mom's nursing students...She teaches L.V.N. students at the Cleburne campus of Hill County Junior College (a.k.a. Harvard on the Hill)...Mom is teaching a unit more or less, on physical fitness. Her objective is to show her students that there are things you can do other than going to the gym, aerobics, etc to work out...She said she has some bigger girls in her class and wants to show them they can still do stuff for exercise...We are going to tech them a short lesson and then perform our sword duet....Mom was really impressed when we were practicing at her house one day...She has never seen either one of us dance with sword...She likes to watch us dance anyway...She says she just doesn't see how we "wiggle around like that" :)
Over the Easter holiday Dillon decided that Jesus is/was a Zombie...His rationale is as follows: Zombies are people that rise from the dead...Jesus rose from the dead..Therefore, Jesus is/was a Zombie minus the brain sucking and flesh eating...That was just a little too much for him (Jesus) to handle...There was a lot of other stuff that went along with it that I just don't remember...My Mom was not amused...Everyone else thought is was funny...Nanna did not...She should really pull that chocolate bunny out of her butt, or at least break it off at the ears.
Roger's trip is getting closer...YUK!...But I guess I will be pretty busy so the weeks will go by quickly.
This weekend I get to see my friend Tyra dance..I'm very excited for her...She is going to be in a show at the Eismann Center in Richardson...FANCY STUFF!
There is a tattoo convention thing in Dallas...I don't remember where...From the website it didn't look very exciting...But then from my meager experience with tattoo conventions, all they really are is walking around from stall to stall watching people get ink...I couldn't do that..I mean, all of those people and the noise...Bleck.
I will be glad when all of the Easter candy is gone so I will quit eating it! I LOVE EASTER CANDY!!! My favs are Peeps and Reese's Peanutbutter Eggs....MMM MMM MMM! Good stuff Maynard!
My friend Trudi is in Turkey AGAIN...I do feel for her becasue she wasn't really home very long from the last time she was there and her job sent her back. And she has been working horribly long hours with no real fun...AND she didn't get to see me and the Rachie dance...BOO!...But at least she gets to be tired and crabby in Turkey!
Well, I guess that about wraps it up for this report...Please stop by the King's Pub at Scarborough Faire and see me...This pub has Peach Belenis...YUMO!!!
Namaste!

Zombie Jesus Day
Must be something in the air.. Jim decided it was Zombie Jesus day this year as well. So we had a big party where we watched Shaun of the Dead (drinking game) had a zombie quiz where you would win bunny peeps that had been "zombiefied" (read: held to a gas flame till they bubbled and blacked.... I have a blister in a blister on my finger from one of 'em)
It was a blast! Next year y'all can come over and celebrate Zombie day with us. :) |
