So I need something to believe
'Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe

OMG...this is like dejavu (is that how you spell it?). I was at a party with this quiz. LOL what are the chances?

Anyhow, it was funness...Thanks for the help and for being the dip...I mean bringing the dip. *cough* and for the Snickerdoodles...I wasn't sure how everyone liked the quiz, but I asked one of the girls about it afterwards, and she said she liked it...and the sports stuff was very you...in a good way. Thanks for the SB card. You know I'll like it.

IT was good to see that group again...I haven't had all of them together since about this summer.

I've yet to IM the girl who was behind the church A's church with T...do you know who she is, btw? I mean have you met her? She and T are the perfect couple...Did I ever tell you that he was hitting on that girl (H) that you keep nursery with some months for the meeting? I could have slapped him for that. That's when I officially unbecame his friend. Drives me nutso...

Anyway, tonight was fuuuuunnnnnn....hope you liked it.

I have just 2, yes 2, words left for you:

virgin pool...

G'night....

can't sleep..so, I think this is what LN was trying to say.


You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch.
You really are a heel.
You're as cuddly as a cactus,
You're as charming as an eel.
Mr. Grinch.


You're a bad banana
With a greasy black peel.


You're a monster, Mr. Grinch.
Your heart's an empty hole.
Your brain is full of spiders,
You've got garlic in your soul.
Mr. Grinch.


I wouldn't touch you, with a
thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole.


You're a vile one, Mr. Grinch.
You have termites in your smile.
You have all the tender sweetness
Of a seasick crocodile.
Mr. Grinch.


Given the choice between the two of you
I'd take the seasick crockodile.


You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch.
You're a nasty, wasty skunk.
Your heart is full of unwashed socks
Your soul is full of gunk.
Mr. Grinch.


The three words that best describe you,
are, and I quote: "Stink. Stank. Stunk."


You're a rotter, Mr. Grinch.
You're the king of sinful sots.
Your heart's a dead tomato splot
With moldy purple spots,
Mr. Grinch.


Your soul is an apalling dump heap overflowing
with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable
rubbish imaginable,
Mangled up in tangled up knots.


You nauseate me, Mr. Grinch.
With a nauseaus super-naus.
You're a crooked jerky jockey
And you drive a crooked horse.
Mr. Grinch.


You're a three decker saurkraut and toadstool
sandwich
With arsenic sauce.

Is that the actual song, or did you make that up because you have nothing better to do? I have a feeling you didn't have anything to do. You're welcome for the Starbucks card. Drink a Vanilla Bean Frap for me.

The party was great, but I don't think the games went over well. And I don't have to diss your side of town to feel good about myself, thank you very much.

And, I didn't mean to make you feel bad about driving. It sort of seemed like I offended. But it's cool that you got your permit. I'm happy for you.

No, I don't know who the girl is that Tyler was hitting on. And no, I didn't know that he was hitting on Haley either. That's sic. She would be really upset if she found out, so don't tell ANYONE, for her sake. He's such a jerk. (Excuse me.)

P.S.- My mom checked my voicemail this morning, for no reason. You kind of left a sarcastic voicemail message on one of the 13 (all of which were yours.) Please don't do that. You also said that "You could make up a question about Chemistry as an excuse to call me." That's lying. I've been trying to regain trust after this summer, and from before that even. Please help me in that. I'm not mad. Not upset. But rules are rules, and I respect them without complaining. Please do the same. Your family may have some rules that are different from the ones that my parents make, but I respect those as well. Please don't be sarcastic about the rules set for me. If you want to be a good friend, you will just be respectful of the expectations set for me and my sister. Please don't take that the long way, I just wanted you to know that. I'm NOT mad. In no way.

So, if you have anything to say, say it here, not on my voicemail where my Mom hear see it. And don't send me any more texts. My Mom didn't think that I could receive them, and she doesn't like that I can get them. Not mad about that either. She is just protecting me and being a good parent. She really thinks that you are a very good friend. And she's told your Mom that. She just didn't like you disrespecting (is that a word) the rules set for me. Ok?

P.S.S.- Virgin pool (Winnie the Pooh) good times.

Hey,

Sorry about the voicemail thing...I was really just joking and I hope she knows that. I will try better to respect her rules from now on...I really am sorry! IDK that that kind of joke would bother her, but I can see why it would. I hope that it didn't destroy hurt any trust issues...I know how hard it can be to regain it after something like that happened.

I'm not mad about the car thing, I was really laughing about it all. I'm just sooo far from affording a car it's funny. My dad is threatening to take me driving tommary'. Pray that I don't kill anything...lol

But, yea, I'm sorry about the your mom thing...I should have thought better, and I'm sorry I made things hard on ya...make sure she knows I was just joking. Let me know how that turns out.

Anyhow, if your not worried about it I won't be. I hope you have a wonderful SKI trip!!! Bring me back some snow.

WV is beautiful country...Take some pics, it's memorable. I went to WinterPlace in the lower part of the state for both my ski trips. The ride up and back is the best part, but there's lots of pretty views to take pictures of there too.

Really, I hope you have a gooood time. You'll be fine. And, I really am sorry about the whole phone thing...:-((

Have a GREAT TIME, cause I know you will!

Fall a few times for me! lol jk

Ok Watermelon,

I'm not worried about it if you're not. I was worried that you might take that whole rant the wrong way. I probably didn't put it the best way anyway, because I've been busy all day packing. (The WORST part of every trip! Hate it!)

And I'll probably fall a few times anyway, so I'll just blame it on you. lol, kidding.

Thanks for the well wishes. And that's great that you weren't mad about the car thing. I was also joking, and I didn't know if you knew that. Ok, g2g
