How do you all do? I am well. Sorry Dawn, I don’t remember having any drama drawn out in front of me on Valentine’s Day. I did have one rude customer, he snapped his fingers at me(Hint: Never snap our fingers at your server, unless you want bad service). That’s right, I ignored them for pretty much the rest of the time they were there. I also had one girl that wouldn’t let me fix her meal, so she went hungry. Well, she ate off her boyfriends plate, which I could tell he was thrilled about. Sucka. But that was pretty much the only drama that took place. Unless you think an ex-boyfriend coming in with his new girlfriend. It was Martin(the blue hair boy). I think we dated for maybe a month. I didn’t recognize him because last I heard he had gone to Alberta. So I kept walking by his table. Finally I stopped and asked if he was who I thought he was. He said yes, Michelle. haha. I was so impressed that he remembered my name. He said that I had made an impression on him. I asked if it was a good one. haha. He said that one fine memory was of both of us walking around the fair making funny noises. Good times. That sounds like me. haha. Then my recent ex-boyfriend(Lanny) cousins came into the restaurant. It was fun though, I get along with them really well. But that was pretty much the only drama of the day.
On Wednesday I went to youth group and had a great time. I was wound up on sugar by the end of the evening and I was pretending that I was in speed skating as I ran around the island in the church’s kitchen. Some of the youth just stood there and watched me run. I was with-holding information from one youth and he was just standing there asking me what it was. But I just ran. Run Michelle Run. haha. I had a good time. I tried playing the piano that night and I suck. I haven’t played for at least 3 years. Yikes, rusty. But I had fun.
On Thursday, which was yesterday I decided that I was going to the gym. I worked until 6pm and I had taken my gym clothes with me to work. I don’t know if you’re like me, but I knew that if I came home I would see the couch and it has this power that just sucks you in. So I decided that I would resist this by not even coming home in between. mwahahaha. There are ways around it. So I went and ran my heart off. I had some stress from work to burn off. I work out better if I’m ticked about something. I don’t know why. It’s like I can run over it or something. So all those rude customers do have a purpose. They keep me energized for my run. haha. They are my fuel. I should say that to the next rude person I encounter. Thank you for your fuel. lol. That’s awesome. I’m totally doing that. After the gym I went grocery shopping. Don’t ever do this. Go shopping after the gym. You become a bully to yourself. Every time I would pick something up I was like, no, you just finished burning that off. Big meany I am to myself. I did get myself a few treats because I knew if I didn’t I would rebel like crazy and be so mad at myself.
*Crazy Cat Lady Moment*
She’s just nuts. There’s no new story that I can think about. Every day she’s doing something crazy. Today she’s found comfort on the table. I think it’s the tablecloth. She loves to cuddle with it. Weird. She’s more like a dog than a cat. Maybe it’s because I treat her like that. I don’t know what else to say. She’s weird, just like her owner. :)
*Crazy Cat Lady Moment* is over.
Well until next time. Peace Out.

Wow, it’s almost been 2 weeks since the last time I wrote in my blog. Sorry to all my fans that have been going through withdraw. The truth is that nothing really exciting has happened or nothing really worth writing about. Lets see, last week was fun on the Monday, I went out for coffee with Dave, Jodi and Barbie. Wednesday was fun, we had youth group and we played baseball in the sanctuary. Don’t worry it was with a ping pong ball and paddle. Good times. I won a prize for filling out the memory verse correctly. I’m Awesome! It’s like stealing candy from babies. (I sound like such a bully). Cool. haha. Just kidding. Last Friday I just stayed locked up in my house. I needed some alone time. Saturday my mom came to town and we went and ripped up the town. Not for real because the town is not made of paper, but that would have been really cool. We went for lunch at Montannas...no that’s not the only restaurant in town, but it’s the newest one. After lunch we went and did some shopping(one sales lady had a really bad attitude and it was kind of fun to make fun of it later on....do you ever do that?) Then I went to work. Awesome fun. After work I went over to Dave’s house and hung out with Dave (we let him be there since it was HIS house) and Barbie, Jodi and Jodi. (Yes there are 2 Jodi’s I’m not repeating myself.) That was a lot of fun. We listened to this one riveting collection on CD. It was not only educational, classical and profound but it made me laugh so hard I almost peed my pants. What was it you ask? It was 99 different sounds of farts. Some of them were so stinkin’ funny.
That brings us to Sunday right? Ok, Sunday was fun. After church Barbie, Dave and myself went out to lunch. When I went to go and pay for my lunch Barbie told me that it was already taken care of. WHAT A SWEETHEART, she bought my lunch for me. (She bought Dave’s too!) Holla out to BARBIE!!!! That afternoon, I had just settled into my couch for a wonderful, well deserved nap and instead there was a knock at the door. I answered it to find my mom standing on the other side. Surprise, Mom’s in town. How fun. So we went and did a couple of things and then we went out for coffee at Humpty’s. Good times, good times. I had some wonderful French Vanilla tea (I’m being very detailed with what I drank because well, if you haven’t already tried this Lipton French Vanilla tea with two sugars and one cream, you simply haven’t lived yet! Ok, maybe you have lived but you haven’t spoiled yourself enough). My mom and I also shared a brownie supreme. It’s as good as it sounds. I should have taken a picture of it to show you. Next time!
After tea time with mom she took me home and I watched a very bad but halarious movie. It’s called Waiting. If you’re offended by the f-bomb. Don’t watch it. If you’re offended by nudity don’t watch it. If you’re offended by really really bad morals don’t watch it. But I found it so funny because working in a restaurant I could appreciate the humor. Then I went to young adults. Again, good times, good times. On Monday I had the whole day off, so what did I do? Nope I didn’t write a blog post. Instead I stayed in my pj’s all day. ALL DAY! I didn’t leave my house for anything. It was awesome. I watched movies and did whatever I wanted to do. My hands got really scratched up bad because I kept tormenting my poor cat. Here’s a picture of my hands. You can see for yourself.



Then yesterday, Tuesday, Valentine’s Day. What a fun day.(Sarcasm is inserted here). All I can say is working in a restaurant it’s one of the most stressful days of the year. We had four seatings during the evening. I was happy when I got to go home. My legs were are all wobbly. (That’s because I didn’t have time to sit down during my almost 9 hour shift). So what did I do to celebrate Valentines Day after I was done work? I did what any single gal would do. I got some good o’l burger king. That’s right, mmmmm...Whopper. And that brings us up to date. Hopefully, something will happen at youth group tonight and I can update the blog a lot sooner. :) Until next time. Peace Out.

All Around the World in a Weekend

Wow! What a busy weekend I had. I traveled all around the world in only one evening. First I went to Iceland.

That was really informative. Did you know that Iceland is made out of Lava? And the coldest it ever gets it -15 and the warmest it gets is plus 15. Interesting. After all I was traveling with Jodi, Barbie and Sandra. Sandra was kind of scared of Iceland. I found her hiding.









We can still see you Sandra. haha. After Iceland we hopped onto our locomotive and headed to El Salvador. When we got there we had just missed the show so we waited for 20 mins to grab the next one. It was really interesting except I couldn’t understand a thing the guy was saying. But the dancers were awesome. We learnt how to do the dances. It’s a lot of shaking your girls and hopping. After we left we couldn’t help but do the dances down the street back to our traveling devise. Next stop, my background, Scotland. Yay!!! The bagpipes were stupendous the dancers were marvelous what can I say, us Scots know how to party.


We stayed there the longest...I became a wee little monster and then we left. We went to some place I don’t know where. It was neat but I was so jetlagged that I needed to go home and rest.
The next day I went to work, I know what you’re thinking, I’m a machine. Do all that traveling all night long and still go to work in the am. Well, to tell you the truth, Brandon just had the winter festival where everyone presents different cultures and you can go and visit and learn about each one. It was really fun. After work on Saturday I came home and had a nap. Mmmmm....nap...good time. After I woke up I headed over to my friend Dave’s house and Jodi, Barbie, Dave and I had a conversation for a while and then we watched the movie Fantastic 4. Good movie, sick sappy love mushy crap at the end. Seriously, this movie went overboard on the cheesy stuff. But the funny stuff was really funny. Good movie over all. Ater the movie was over I went home and talked on the internet until 3am. When I woke up this morning I knew I told Barbie I was going to pick her up. When I left the house I knew I was going to pick up Barbie. I got in the car, knowing that I was going to Barbie’s house. I started to drive thinking I’m going to go to Barbie’s house. That’s when I realized I was heading to the church and Barbie lives the other way. haha. Blond moment. So I turned around and went and got Barbie. After church we went out to lunch. We went to Montannas. It was yummy, but I had to leave early. I had an appointment. For what you ask? This is where you get to vote again. Yay!!!!! I love voting. I wish I got to vote. I got to on Lauren’s blog. So fun!!! I voted long. I hope it wasn’t suppose to be a secret ballet because, well, I just told all of you what my vote was. Anywho, I got my hair done. I put some color into it and you get to vote on what you like better. My natural looks like this:













My new hairdo looks like this:














Now this is where you get to vote. Have fun. I hope you all had a great weekend. And don’t forget to comment! Until next time. Peace Out.

I'm Back (part 4)

Ok, that brings us to Monday. I got off work at about 2pm. I came home and relaxed for a while and passed out half way through Dr. Phil. I woke up to Oprah’s voice and decided that I had no desire to watch. So I crawled into my bed and went back to sleep. I had a strange dream with a song that didn’t really fit. When I woke up I thought I better check to see if I had missed a call because I recognized the song in my dream as the ring tone on my phone. I had in fact missed a call. It was from my friend Barbie. I phoned her and there was no answer. I phoned my friend Jodi’s cell phone, still no answer. I called Dave’s phone, again, no answer. So I started to read my daily news, my sisters blog. When I was half way done reading her post the phone rang. It was Barbie. She said that when I phoned Barbie and then Jodi they had both seen because they were talking to each other. Jodi was already on her way to pick me up because we were all going for dinner. We went to Humpty’s on the hill. We talked about our first kiss. (Mine was when I was 19). I don’t count the ones with Eric Kuebler because we were so young. (4-8 years old). I know my sister really well, and I have a feeling that she’s going to start listing off embarrassing moments for me. If she wasn’t even thinking of it, now for sure she will. Anyways, that brings us to Tuesday. Yesterday. After I was done work I called my friend Jeff. I bribed him with cookies if he came over. When he got here I was tempted to tell him that he could have the cookies on the computer but instead I made him some real yummy cookies for fixing my computer. After hours of working on my computer he went home and I relaxed and went to bed. That brings us to Wednesday but I’ll save that for tomorrow. I have to leave you in some suspense. (Thank you other Michelle for the great tip. I took your advice and it works.)
Until next time. Peace Out!

I'm Back (Part 3)

When I got home from the restaurant I was welcomed by a message on my answering machine. It was from my mom. She said she didn't know if she was going to come to town or not. When I phoned her she had decided not to come. We talked for a while and then I told her that my new computer desk was really frustrating because the screws wouldn't go into the wood part for me. She asked if I wanted her to come to town with her power tools. Who could turn down that offer? She arrived here within 45mins. (It's suppose to be at least an hour drive). Can we say lead foot? When she got here we went and did some shopping. When we were done the shopping we came back to my place and I played with the power tools. Mom said that was a scary sight. I was making some comments and making weird mwahhahahaha laughter noises. I told her that's why they won't let me be a dentist. I told her that I should be in construction and she said that nothing would get done then. I don't know what that was suppose to mean. Yeah, putting my desk together took a long time, but it got finished. There was also one point when I used my legs and feet to whip stuff up to my hands. She thought this was weird. She said that they certainly didn't have those kind of moves on a construction site. I remember having these kind of competitions with my sister growing up. Picking up ones socks with your toes and then flipping it up to your hands. Or having contests on who could spread their baby toe out the furthest. You're doing this now aren't you? It's ok, admit it. It's fun!!
After the desk was all set up we watched a movie. We watched Flight Plan. I thought this movie was suppose to be scary, but it wasn't. It was a good movie don't get me wrong I enjoyed it. I just thought it was suppose to be scary. After the movie was over, Mom headed home and I headed to Bible Study. I was late because of the movie but it was worth it. When I arrived they were just finishing the study. Afterwards we all just sat around and talked. It was a good time. That was the end of my Sunday.
