Not interesting at all. Just like me. |

In a text-based world, I'm beautiful. My favorite things in life: *cocoa *hugs *banana paraphernalia (chips, smoothies, ice cream....) *knowing that I am understood. *good pens/pencils *writing down my thoughts *serving *conversations of the deep sort. *spending time with those that I love. *a cleansing bunch of noise once in a while *quiet the rest of the time *blogging my lil heart out *understanding *noticing the little things that generally don't matter. *being just a little bit different *pretending to be a poser "You must do the things you think you cannot do." -Eleanor Roosevelt. This is straightforwardly me. |
| Work tonight: Marissa said something goofy that made me laugh hysterically. I got a bad case of hiccups. Patrick tried several things to help me get rid of them. Martin came over and I was speaking to him when Patrick jumped at me suddenly. I screamed and dove for the hot box. The only reason I didn't fall to the floor was because the hotbox was behind me. Everyone in the kitchen heard me.  Patrick seemed to feel really bad about it, and touched my shoulder apologetically several minutes later. He explained that he'd only been trying to scare my hiccups away, etc. But later he seemed to enjoy trying to scare me, not as intensely, but just a bit. Just for fun. Weird. Wanna know the kicker? I still have the hiccups.  |
| I guess after 4 kids you can't expect much excitement from the family. Either way, my sister had #4, Katherine Paige today: ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** That makes 8 nieces/nephews for me.  The oldest is 10, the youngest was born at 10:30 this morning.  Extra sleep and an easy day will make you tired or sick, and sometimes both. (okay, not 'sick' sick, I've just got a cough, but even that's shocking for the immune system of SUPERknee!)I'm trying to tally my life a bit, and there's just not a ton to tally. I'll go at it again tomorrow. (I've still got the rough draft private, mainly because it's the rough draft) It's cool though. Things like Number of family portraits I've been in: 3. Number of glasses: 7. Contacts: 4. Number of Jell-o shots taken: 0. I'm liking it.  Number of times my name has been mispronounced: 447. Number of times that I've cared about said mispronunciation: 1. Good stuff. I realized something this week= I type out 'okies' all the time. I only say it occasionally. Anyway, this knee is a tired git. And now she's gittin' off to bed. |
| There are days that a little caffeine is all that gets you through. I think I'm gonna go numb my brain in front of the TV. (I never watch TV) Ug. |
| and almost twice a month I need a peptalk from Annabelle. Well, it's half pep-talk and half angsty anger parties of yelling and ranting. |
It just may be my calling...  Quote of the day: Preceded by, "You want me to take this order out?" Quote: "No, I'll do it. I haven't made anyone smile yet." Verse of the day: If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 1 Corinthians 13:1 (props to bible.com) Following this verse is a message about love, and what love is about. It makes me question the way I love people... It's human to make mistakes, but I've done a 'not love' to everyone I love. I've been jealous, impatient, boastful, nearly all of these things. Sorry, you don't want to hear about my conviction today. I'm going to bed pretty quick-like. |
| Rather than blogging about my life, I'll let ya read an email I sent to my Bible study group. Most of them are still in high school, and I never really get to see them. Hello all! I'm being a little lazy by sending a group email, but you know how it is. :) My life: I love my classes this semester! I have 3 classes with the word 'writing' or 'composition' in the title... And my fourth class has several book reports and several sorts of writing assignments. I've done a lot of that this semester! Now to the cool part: God has really been working in my life. I've been growing like mad, learning new things, and coming to new understandings. He's placed so many strong Christians in my life which is good for both companionship but these guys challenge me to grow stronger in my walk with God. Also, a group of us are trying to get a party started on a weekend that will pull people away from the alcohol scene and maybe get them to just hang out and listen to cool music and be with cool people. We've got tons of cool ideas. (chocolate milk pong, comfy couches, loud music, cool lighting, fog machines, coffee, that sort of thing) If you have any ideas on what could make this party a rockin' party, that'd be awesome. I'd love to hear your ideas. (especially since you're the coolest group of girls I know!) Our hope is to maybe lead some people to Christ and reach out to the campus. (at the same time, we don't want to hit college kids on the head with a Bible. ;)) I'd also love to hear from you guys just about your life! (what'd ya eat for breakfast, what's on your mind, how many freckles are on your left toe...) If you have anything that I can pray for, send it my way. :) (or just tell me how I can pray for you better!) Sorry this was so long, I just miss you girls so much! I should be studying for a history exam in 36 minutes, but oh well. :) I love you girls! Hope to hear from you soon! -Knee Okay, I didn't actually sign as 'Knee', but that's how you guys know me. |
For having such a good week so far, I certainly didn't do anything worthwhile yesterday or so far today... Well, I wrote a poem today. It's for a class. You can read it if you really want to.... "Invalid Item"  I'm not too sure about my poetry. I've had to write a lot of it for this class.... Here's the rest of it if you want to get a good feel for me and poetry. (I'm not suggesting that you do, just if you want to): "Invalid Item" Ug, romantic stuff. Really not my suit. Anyway, I have to start doing stuff here today or my GPA will drop somemore.  Oh, and I need to do FAFSA, taxes, and junk like that VERY soon or this girl is going to prove all the stereotypes. V-day is coming up.  I do recommend the Vagina Monologues, though. That is, if you're not offended at everything. They say the word 'vagina' a LOT. Have a great day.... Or something. |
| The two women in my life who keep me sane are both ASLEEP! Can't they tell that I need to talk? Give them updates? DAMMIT! Okay, it's a good story, so I'll share it: For the whole semester I've known him, I've liked this dude John. He's the John from the last entry... And I'm pretty positive that Nathan told him that I'm interested. I knocked on his door today, and no one else was there yet. (Bible study folks. I was about 5 minutes early) We made semi-awkward conversation until he said, "So, you and my roommate have been talking a lot..." I wasn't sure how much he knew or quite what he meant, so I turned the conversation a different way... and almost accidently came off as though I was interested in the wrong guy! (Nathan's a good guy, but I'm into John...) John seemed almost hyperactive tonight, which he never is. The guy is exhausted nearly everytime that I see him. I'm pretty sure Nathan gave him some sort of hint. Whether it was, "Hey, Knee's interested in you..." or "So, you know that Knee girl? She's a sweetheart, you should try to get with her..." Yeah right. The second one is VERY unlikely. And now, when I want to discuss every little detail and try to squeeze meaning out of everything with Hannah or Annabelle, they're ASLEEP! Crap. Ah well. I'll have sweet dreams tonight, and I hope that you do too.... EDIT:::: YAY! Hannah is awake, but we're talking about her instead. |
Okay.... this whole story is weird, but I'll spare you the nitty gritty details and just give you the point: Nate: A guy I work with. John: A guy from my Bible study. So, I've been interested in John for awhile now. He's a good guy. I found out about 3 weeks ago that John and Nate were roomies. I thought that was very interesting. Well today, Nate asked me if I was interested in John. My answer: "He's a good, clean Christian guy. Of course I'm interested." Nate then told me about how he was planning on hooking John up with a girl. He then tried to sell me on the idea of John. His best statement? I'm gonna bold it for ya: "He'll make a good husband. He's a hard worker. He wakes up early everyday to work." How funny. "Good husband material". As if that's what I'm looking for right now... Nate's a good guy though. He really has the best in mind for John. |
