I was having a kinda sad day. I went to a movie by myself, which didn't seem to help until this trailer came on. It's SO ridiculous that it made me smile.

2008-07-05T22:07:00.000-06:00

Day 187

I watched Holes today and I loved it. I had never seen it before. Is it weird that I am attracted to Shia Lebeouf? More so in his movies now, but even a little in Holes. Ok, that sounds so wrong.

Day 174

Has there ever been a person in your life that just knew you so well, that they would get you something that was so incredibly perfect for you- you thought maybe they read your mind or something? I've got one and she pretty much rules.

Thanks Alyssa.

2008-06-21T00:52:00.000-06:00

Day 172

My mom and I were talking and she was telling me about a plant she had that was droopy and sad but she watered it and how it "perked up like a newborn penis". Huh.

2008-06-19T16:44:00.004-06:00

Day 171

I forgot how much I love the movie Can't Hardly Wait and especially the sweet 90's soundtrack. Every song is pretty good.

2008-06-16T16:32:00.000-06:00

Day 168

I'm pretty sure any boy that has you dress up fancy to go to the Sizzler is a keeper. If he had taken me to chuck a rama I would probably be having his baby right now.

2008-06-15T01:08:00.000-06:00

Day 167

Father's Day. I love my dad.

We watched the Bucket List- funny things my mom said, "I'm not crying because I am sad, I'm crying because I am happy knowing that Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman are in a better place" -then seconds later -"Money doesn't buy you happiness, but it sure doesn't hurt". It was hilarious . . . but I guess you had to be there.

2008-06-14T01:05:00.001-06:00

Day 166

My choir sang at the Scottish Festival. See other blog to read all about me flashing my underwear to everyone.

Got a little sunburned today- and it felt so good.

2008-06-11T22:23:00.002-06:00

Day 163

Ever watch "My So-called Life"? I think we were obsessed with it in college before "Felicity" came out. Anyway, I was watching an episode today and they say the word like a lot. In between the likes there are some pretty profound things that come out.

"The worst feeling is suddenly realizing that you don't measure up. And that, in the past, when you thought you did, you were a fool."

. . . and I related.

2008-06-10T14:58:00.000-06:00

Day 162

2008-06-09T16:06:00.003-06:00

Day 161

Conversation I had today with one of my teenagers.

Corey: Angie, have you ever seen the original transformers cartoon?

Me: Yeah sure, years ago.

Corey: Ok, so I was watching an episode last night and Optimus Prime and Megatron fought so hard that they fell to the core of the planet, which is organic- the planet is made of metal. And when they did that, all the sparks that Megatron had taken from the autobots went back into them, so that they could thrive and the autobots and decepticons lived in peace. But it was kinda sad because they didn't have optimus prime anymore, you know?

Me: Uh huh.

Corey: It really did say that the decepticons lived in peace with the autobots. They were created by the same thing, but the decepticons became bad and the autobots good.

Me: Kinda like the Lamanites and the Nephites?

Corey: Yeah. . . sure. Oh and there is a girl transformer, but only one and she doesn't come until WAY later. But she has more power than Megatron and Optimus Prime combined. Girl power.

Me: Totally.

Corey: Angie, so when are you gonna get married?

Seriously. Verbatim.

I went to Provo last night- can you believe it? It was the art walk and I went to see Janelle's art. Here she is (I kinda stole this pic from another blog, thanks Cindy). She was really good and I couldn't believe how many people I knew there. I kept trying to get to other galleries and never really made it because I kept running into more people to talk to.

And then we had cake and ice cream for this guy-

He's way nicer than he looks. Happy Birthday Mike!

2008-06-05T18:16:00.000-06:00

Wanna know something that is hilariously funny? Being stuck in traffic and putting the radio on scan, with only three channels working so that it keeps coming back to a Bryan Adams song or a spanish song. SO SO SO funny.

Day 133

I watched this movie tonight and I really loved it. I think that if I wasn't a girl and I didn't feel such ties to responsibility and I had unlimited funds and time and stuff- I would just travel all over the world and meet new people and read every book on my list. I would.

Never left my bed. Not once.

2008-05-07T13:01:00.002-06:00

Day 128

So what happens when the heart just stops
Stops caring for anyone
The hollow in your chest dries up
And you stop believing

So what happens when the heart gives up
But the body goes on living
The blood crawls to a slow and stops
And flows away

Well we got no-one to meet
No love we would beseech
We only have ourselves to blame for everything
The was no answer in the dust
And I'm missing you so much
And now you're sleeping
And I'm leaving

Empty-handed waiting
Time it will subside and we'll agree
It was a given
Well there was no standard we could set
And the world it does regret
To have to leave you in this state of bereavement

You see I'm feeling everything
Nothing gets by

There is a hollow in my chest
The time I won't forget
There is no comfort in the eyes
They put us always to the test
I can't prepare myself for that
But I work it out in time
There is a love that flows between us
Ever-changing everyday
I worked myself up to a crawl
But I'm not fearing it at all
We have no reason left to stay
And that's why we're leaving
And there was no answer in the dust
And the one I feared to trust
There is a lie that drags us
Beating and pulling into disappointment

I'm disappointed
I'm disappointed
I'm disappointed

It's so late, till you're gone

2008-05-07T00:11:00.002-06:00

I've been trying to give up swearing, but today was a bit of a relapse. My computer is not working properly. I spent and hour and a half on the phone with a guy from India and it was fixed!!!! And then it wasn't again. I have a feeling this is going to cost me.
