Auntie Go Go

July 31, 2007

Today Emily went to Georgia’s house to hang out with Flynn while mommy and daddy went to staff meeting. The whole way there I was trying to get her to say Georgia or Flynn. She wouldn’t say either of them. But a couple minutes after I left she said “ah tee go go”(gotta sound it out). so auntie George has been dubbed Auntie Go Go.

I think Em and I are going to go walking at the 108 today. It’s such a nice day so I think an outing with some different scenery is in order. Man today I wish I had one of those biking cart things. It would be such a nice day to roll around the lake. I want to ride my bike so much, but since Emily goes where I go…no go.

I finally got around to editing some pictures to put up here. so here you go. These are from our day at the park last Saturday with Janaya and Elijah. Oh and the Shih szu of my hair.

Butt Fly and the Slander Party

July 30, 2007

I actually feel like blogging today. I haven’t had alot of time to lately. I posted the other two posts cause they made me laugh so hard. Most of the videos are so such crappy quality that youtube will probably laugh at me for posting them, but I might anyways.Heres the Snowboarding one.

The title is one of the funnier parts of my week. We looked after Elijah and Janaya on Saturday. They are 1.5 and 4 yrs. That was the day Emily learned her first 3 syllable word.”Butt Fly”. So what if she turned it into a two syllable word. it cracked me up. She says it better already. I’m a bit sad that she does. Her second 3 syllable word was “cheerio”. The while playing all day Janaya played with Emily’s little phone and was pretending to talk to her friend Asia. Lucky for Janaya because she got invited to Asia’s “Slander Party”. I looked over at Morgan and said “I’ve been to some of those, they’re awful”. We are still laughing about it and thinking of throwing our own “Slander Party”.

You haven’t lived until you’ve had a Diaper explode in the washing machine. How it got there I’ll never know, but what I do know is that I had to re-wash everything and pick up a “butt load” of the jelly diaper stuff. I’m just glad it wasn’t a poopy. icky icky icky.

I’ve started running with Morgan. I was going to do the podcast for running about 3 months ago, but that never happened. I’ve been waiting to blog about it unlit I actually made it into the second week of running every second day. The podcast has techno music to run too and a guy that tells you when to run and when to walk, so you don’t have to look at your watch. its called from the couch to 5K in 9 weeks. We are on week 2 which means we run for 9 minutes already. In intervals of 1minute and 30 seconds with a walk in between. It sounds easy, but when the guys says lets speed back up for the 5th time, you want to kill him or at least make him wax his legs or something. I’ve been walking everyday too. A couple of times I’ve finished my walk and gone straight into the creek.

We walk and run with Emily in the jogging stroller. She loves the running, but sometimes gets bored with the walking. She sings to herself while we are doing “The Loop” around town. Man we would love to be back at the “8″. Running the lakes would be so much more fun. I want to get one of those behind your bike style baby carts. I think you can get them cheaper at a MEC gear swap. I’m hoping we can pick one up soon because I love to ride my bike.

I’m getting my wedding ring and engagement rings soldered together this week. I talked to my jeweler and they think its a good idea to do. The two rings rubbing together can make them wear down really fast. I’m not sure I’ll like them that way, but here’s hoping. She said she didn’t recommend I get that done if I only wore my wedding band to work or something, but I always wear both. I guess I could see it if I wore rubber gloves all day or something like that. My engagement ring would be to sticky outey for that. I can pick up my rings tomorrow. I feel nakey without them on.

Em is waking up. I think we’ll walk down to the library and check the mail. The Library has cardboard books for Em so I think we’ll pick some new ones up today. Oh and Em got some new Robeez today. They are so cute(brown w/hearts). She changed sizes again. We picked some new ones from the catalogue (white trainers)and they’ll be here next month.

Conspiracy Theory

July 30, 2007

Something I thought was funny in school. My imagination isnt normal. Seriously

  1. That crappy stuff thats called tofu isn’t tofu its a recycled vomit compound that airlines sell to the grocery story for extra money to fuel there planes.
  2. The reason that every thing tastes like chicken is because it is chicken.The manufacturers found a cheap way to mass produce chickens and change their molecular structure to look like many other products, but even when the products structure had been changed the taste still lingers.The other companies couldn’t afford to bring in the real thing because chicken was cheaper.

AZEWS

July 30, 2007

 

Hey, Thought I’d post this today. Just a shweet recollection of what we thought in high school AND my bestest buddy Leah wrote it. Check her page and see if there is anything different about her now.haha. I have a couple of new OLD flash files too I might post. Just so you can laugh at me.

Azews Fashion Files

Okay…you wanna look cool…just like Courtenay and I do. You have to start by getting rid of all those thoughts of looking sexy and being “in style”!! more people respect people who are original in their clothing. More guys think chicks, who have enough courage to wear somthing that the girl likes instead of what the world likes, are much cooler and have better personality…well any of the cool guys do. Tight pants and skanky clothes aren’t going to get you a respectable guy anyway. GUYS!! Girls don’t like you to look dirty,personally…I like wife beaters and hoodies….crazy thrift store finds or things that are totally hip. Guys have it easy.

GIRLS

okay…want some advise? You CAN be attractive. If you’re a little overweight don’t wear things that show your stomach. It’s good that youre brave enough to but that’s all that’s good about it. I know some sticks that wont even show their flat stomachs. Azews thinks that chicks with baggy pants, hoodies, ball chains, wife beater style tanks, mega bell bottoms, anything weird from value village, body peircings,and hemp necklaces are all rad. Actually anything that you can think of that doesn’t have anything to do with what all the prissy twinks are wearing. (No offence to you girls who like to wear spandex)I mean I like to dress up once in a while but…I get embarressed when I look like everyone else…it shows I’m not original and I follow….BE YOURSELF GIRLS!!

DO
*Be colorful
*Wear our duct tape stuff
*Be yourself
*Try to smile lots
*Wear somthing flattering to your figure
*Wear TONS of crazy jewlery
*Layer nifty clothes (even dresses with pants)
*Proudly show that you have class and not a big @$$
*Wear somthing that brings out your eyes color
*Dye your hair as funky as you’re comfortable with
*State what you believe in
*Peirce anything you want
*Work out

DONT
*Follow that your friends are wearing (get ideas from them..don’t be them)
*Take my advise if you don’t want to
*Pack on the make up..PLEASE!!
*Wear clothes that are going to give you sexual attention. You want to attract guys that will treat you well. Not ones that are going to use you for sex
*BE AFRAID
*Wear those tight black pants that all the girls are wearing and then put a hoodie on…you’re giving punks a bad name here…please…have mercy!
*Wear those big hoop earrings unless you’re REALLY dressing up…come on lets fight against the 80’s movement!
***Complain that you’re fat…if you think you are, then go get some excersize and eat somthing healthy…goodness…girls get a grip!***

GUYS

You people have it easy, well if you’re trying to attract me anyway. I think a guy who dresses like a punk is really cool but my boyfriend has more of a gangster thing going on. I think that there’s a few things that you can do to make things perfect…it doesn’t matter what style you have though. I personally don’t enjoy the cowboy look but some girls (God bless them) do.

DO
*Wear really baggy pants
*Wear our duct tape stuff
*Wear wife beaters (just don’t beat your wives)
*Work on those abs..mmmmm
*Wear necklaces…lots of them…not gold
*Wear anything silver
*Have crazy spikey or curley hair
*Peirce yourself…nipples are cool…and the bottom of your belly button

DONT
*Wear tight jeans
*Wear short jeans
*Wear short shorts
*Wear tight shorts
*Wear spandex…YUCK
*Gel your hair unless you now what you’re doing (most of you don’t)
*Walk like you are really cool…most likely you’re not…you just think you are

Okay…that about wrappes it up. Actually as dumb as I may sound I do know alot about hair, make up, and fashion. So if you’re a cool cat…or a not so cool cat, you can E-mail me and get some Azews advise on any problem you may have. I do know my stuff so try me. Have fun being you. You only live once…once you’re old a grey you may regret that you never dyed your hair blue. Maybe you’ll be rad enough to dye it when you’re 80…I know I will. Anyway all your questions can go to azews@quackquack.com I’m here for you man. I also provide councel to those of you who are stuck in the 80’s (poofy bangs or mullets) or have been stuck in tight jeans for so long that your legs have fallen off.
All my love,
Leah Thomson

Just to show you how cool we were in grade 12.

L’chyim (Think Yiddish)

July 25, 2007

How many funny things can happen in one day? In my world the potential is amazing. I think of hundreds of things to blog about all day long, but then I cant remember them all. I’m tempted to carry a voice recorder and then have dragon naturally speaking transcribe it. Riiight. Since I’m that big of a nerd that’s exactly what I will do. or not do. Here is the lowdown of some of the funny things that happened in the last day.

I got called middle aged. Can someone help me with the knife in my back please.

Emily ate dirt and then…yep you guessed it…pooped dirt.

Emily choked on Timmys and Georgia rescued her.

Then she chucked her very full sippy cup which exploded in Timmys

Emily said the “F” word about a hundred times today trying to say “Walk”.

I cant remember them, but several times Morgan and I had word communication problems, which pretty much means one of us hears something absolutely ridiculous that the other person didn’t say.

Those are just some examples of my typical day. Not even counting our adventures in the supermarket. Again…I need to write a book about the weird things that happen to me. There could be a whole chapter on grocery stores.

I learned some new songs today. I’ve been trying to find some new things to play at youth. I found a bunch of good stuff. I burned L’chyim some stuff to try. I practiced a bunch of the new songs and I really like them. I’ve been playing my guitar so much lately. I love it. I’ve been learning alot and just having alot of fun. I’ve been playing my electric the most. Im turning into the noodle kid. The one that never shuts up. noodle noodle noodle. Its ok tho cause I wear my head phones.

I’m in the middle of a good book, so I’m gonna go read it and stay up late waiting for Morgan to get home again. I hate going to bed when he is still at work. It’s only till midnight tonight tho. So thats nice.
