G: are you SURE you don’t want to date my brother?? I could send him over right now!
J: i never said i didn’t want to date him. you did
J: just kidding.
G: LOL
G: trust me
J: oh, i do!
G: Okay, so one of the greatest movies all times is on…Sound of Music
G: and he whines
G: until we change it
G: and he puts it on Vacation
J: i was watching that. come over!
G: not Christmas Vacation, just Vacation
G: which is a great movie as well BUT
J: ugh. who wants to watch that for the 5000th time?
G: right
G: I mean if nothing else were on I’d be giddy
G: but there’s something better on
G: so now, where is he? Not watching
J: well, i’m watching it so i’ll just let you know they are having the party right now.
G: SANTA’S COMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
G: SANTA!!!!!!!!!!
J: WHOOO HOOOO!!!!! Santa got to my house about an hour ago!
G: LOL.
G: Boy1 was making me nuts
J: what was he doing?
G: just NOT going to sleep
G: “I have a cough”
G: your basic bullshit excuses
J: is he not going to midnight mass?
G: well, we’re not going. Because [brother] is sick and Boy2 was exhausted but either way he has to go to bed now
J: what’s wrong with [brother]?:
G: he’s a man and he has the sniffles so he’s dying
J: ugh. i hope my boyfriend isn’t a wimp like that
G: well, dont count on it
J: look how cute baby [name] was today
J: he looked like a little paper boy
G: LOL!! How cute!!
J: and look how cute i was!
G: sorry, he’s cuter.
J: thanks.
G: nice hair though.
J: that’s what i was going to say. check out my hair.
G: SOMEONE is still awake
G: I took 2 Tylenol PM at 9pm b/c I have a splitting headache. Santa really isn’t going to come!!
J: i am so lucky. my brother bought my dad the entire whatever of the Honeymooners. Daddy brought them. Guess what we’re watching.
J: that’s what i meant to get at WM last night. some Tylenol PM. I think I need to start taking some before i go to bed.
G: I can hook you up
J: so, should i be sad if my friend who is a boy doesn’t call me on Christmas?
G: well if he doesn’t call you then YOU call HIM.
J: well, that’s what i was thinking. knowing how he loves to talk on the phone i don’t look for him to call.
J: so [name] blabbed to my family that i had a boyfriend.
J: i had to call my grandma and confess.
G: LOL
J: did i tell you that the other night Bob said he needed a maid to do his dishes and wear one of those naughty little maid outfits. i told him to hire someone to do the dishes and i’d take care of the rest
G: hee heee!
J: hahaha. like that would happen.
J: maybe.
J: i’m too fat for one of those outfits anyway.
G: no you’re not. boys don’t want to hear you say that either
G: ask Vince
J: i know. i’ve had to stop myself from talking like that. i’m trying to be positive.
J: i’ll be that way until i hook him
G: lol
J: oh, and my toe is worse now than it was before. the bruise looks nasty and nothing comes out when i stab the needle down there.
J: i took a picture of my toe. wanna see???????
G: okay, sure!!
J: okay, hang on.
G: The boys forgot to put out milk & cookies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
J: oh no!
G: I’m gonna write a note…..”Where the hell are my fucking cookies?? Love, Santa”
J: LOL
J: okay, i have two views
G: great
J: from far away
G: eewww
J: and closer up
G: where’s the cringing smiley?
J: i think it’s on my toe.
J: you’re such a kind and compassionate friend!
G: LOL..
G: seriously I had to close it because I was shuddering
J: i’m terrified that i’m going to have to go back to the dr. and have her “take care of it”
G: um, you’ll let me pick at it first
J: wonder if Bob would doctor my toe for me?
G: Boy1 and I both love to pick at things.
G: We’ll give you some whiskey and pick at it
J: i’d need some whiskey
J: i poked the needle in it earlier and nothing came out like it did before.
J: and it’s kinda red down at the very bottom like there’s blood or something down there. i wish my toe would just fall off. surely it wouldn’t hurt nearly as bad.
G: yuck. That’s gonna take a long time to heal
J: think it’ll snow tomorrow?
G: I hope so!!
J: me too
J: i’ve never had a white christmas
G: well then I *really* hope it does!!
G: I remember one year it was really bad and we couldn’t go out. THey cancelled church & everything
G: I mean I was like in 5th grade but….
J: just think… this could be my first christmas with a boyfriend AND my first white christmas. maybe this could turn out to be my year after all!
G: totally!!!
J: i opened one of my presents. it was a new can opener!
J: i think my dad is fixing to pee in his pants
G: LOL
G: sorry
G: that’s a great gift
G: Vince thinks he’s getting one
G: b/c he bought that shitty one and we all hate it
J: well, i did ask for it. mine was so crappy and i was just too cheap to buy a new one. hmm… crap. sounds like me and Vince have more in common than i’d ever want to admit.
G: LOL.
G: Okay, I’m in bed.
G: I thought I felt my Tylenol PM kicking in and got up to get everything done and now I don’t feel tired at all.
J: i feel like i could go to sleep any second now.
G: I just want my headache to go away
J: i had a headache earlier. during the candle light service. not fun.
G: I got pajamas for Christmas–early [link]
J: those are cute!
G: aren’t they? Vince did well
G: he thinks I don’t like them, but I do
G: I would tell YOU if I hated them at least! LOL. No really, I wouldn’t have PUT THEM ON if I hated them. I’d come up with some excuse and take them back
J: that’s true
G: I normally don’t like flannel because it snags on your dry skin & hairy legs but this is soft
J: well, we are now on our 4th installment of The Honeymooners. Every one my dad says, “I think i’ve see this one.” My mom says, “[Dad], we’ve seen all of these.”
J: they are getting old.
G: Like in Back to the Future…where he says its a rerun
J: i need to hurry up and have grandkids before they totally lose their minds.
G: LOL!!!!
G: no, really…my mom has lost her mind….and yet, she enjoys the boys
J: you may have to call me tomorrow and tell me there’s an emergency and you need me to come over. Otherwise I might poke my eyes out if we have to watch the other SIX DVDs
G: LOL. Okay, I can do it. Just send me the beep
J: Norton on the Honeymooners is eating a Kumquat.
G: hee hee kumquat
J: my boyfriend would take me to Kansas City.
J: how exciting.
G: yeah, I’d ASSume they were a couple then
G: Kansas City has GOOD shopping Jen!!!
J: and i think he does kinda feel bad. friday night he was like, “you know i would take you if i hadn’t already asked my friend,” and “i made these plans long before i even knew you.”
G: that’s sweet
J: he did say he’d call me from the strip club, though so i guess it’s nice that he’ll be thinking about me.
G: lol
J: he better not be going to no strip club@
J: man, i got that new battery for my phone yesterday. well, i charged it all night last night and it’s already showing the yellow battery with only one bar. i think there’s something wrong with this phone or something. good grief!
G: that’s weird
G: very weird
G: okay, why did Vince have to wait downstairs with my Christmas present?
G: I came up how long ago but he said he had to stay down there for a while
J: i know. and it’s not making that annoying sound anymore, but it does have a fuzzy sound in the background sometimes.
G: I asked him if it was a puppy? If he was waiting til it was asleep??
G: he says no.
J: well, i know what he got you but i can’t imagine what he’s doing.
G: and I do believe him
G: Vince wants to know if your mom has used the soap
J: he’s funny.
J: well, i guess we’re all going to bed.
J: i can’t wait till you get your present from Vince. i’m quite jealous, btw.
G: oh, did your mom say you had to?
G: LOL
G: Oh goody…now I won’t sleep!!!
J: and i’m so proud of you for not trying to get me to tell you what it is!
G: hee hee…thanks
G: I’m proud of myself for not logging on to our online credit card statement or really sneaking
G: I’m gonna be really surpised…all I’ve figured out is the can of chili and the boots
J: well, this is much better than both of those put together.
G: LOL, yay
J: one of the teachers got me this really cool picture frame thing with 8 different 5×7 frames all in one bundle, kwim?
G: okay, I should get to sleep too…if I can
G: yeah.
G: I need one of those!
J: i really like it. i’ve been wanting one. patience has really been paying off for me lately. i must be doing something right!
G: good for you
J: okay, go to sleep and santa will be here when you wake up. i’m going to do the same.
G: yay…good night. Merry Christmas. I’ll talk to you tomorrow for sure. If you need to come over call me…and vice versa
J: lol. sounds good. nite!
G: “When’s J gonna come over to play bowling??
J: have you played it yet?
G: no
G: I’m just watching
G: Boy2 kicked everyone else’s butt at bowling though. You gotta watch out for the little ones
J: good for him!
J: so did you like your present?
G: YES
G: I’m downloading. an episode of….Spongebob….LOL I couldn’t think of antyhing I wanted to download
G: I swear the sound is 10x better on this too.
J: so my dad wants to know what we’re going to do now.
G: LOL!!!
G: Um, yeah….
G: ya’ll can all come over and play the Wii!
G: that’s funny
J: Dad-”I wonder if there’s a service station open?”
G: Conoco is open
J: Jen- “What do you need at a service station?”
J: dad “I need to buy gas”
G: LOL
J: It’s going to be a LLLOOONNNGGG day
G: so did you get anything good?
G: or did you just tell them what to get you?
J: um, i got a pair of shoes, a book, a special edition version of Dirty Dancing, a cute little door hook thing, my camera and some $$$$
G: $$$ is always the best
J: Bob is going to love the Dirty Dancing DVD
G: I’m SURE!
G: LOL
G: oh no, this thing has boxing.
G: that’s hilarious
J: oh, boy. that’s going to be fun.
G: I may need that actually
J: we’re watching Babes in Toyland.
G: what is it on? Not that I”m going to get the TV anytime soon
J: my DVD
G: oh!
J: i think my toe is going to fall off. seriously.
J: tell me about your boots!
G: oh, they’re really cute
G: let me see if I can find a picture of them.
G: sheesh, he already threw the box out. That would help in finding the name.
J: where did he get them?
G: *shrug*
G: theyre North Face
G: so I didn’t even have you guess what time my children (Boy1) woke up this morning
G: this is what time they woke up, not what time we got up.
J: i couldn’t even begin to imagine.
G: yeah, you’d never guess it was
G: TWO AM
G: I wanted to beat him
J: Good Lord!!!
G: and he woke up everyone (except Vince)
G: and he had lights on and everything
G: I had to keep sending him back to bed. It was awful. We’re all having naps later
J: i would have told him that Santa was still in China!
J: Oh great. I called my grandma and she just told my dad that AMC is having westerns all day. I’m coming over!
G: LOL
J: Oh, I got a $50 gift card to Kohls and $100 to NY & Co. from the [work]. And a guy gave me $200 yesterday morning!
G: wow!!
G: $200? for what? singin’???
J: so i’ve decided i want some tall brown cuffed boots with a pointy heel. I can only find them with a chunky heel.
J: yep. he just wanted me to know how much he appreciated me.
J: it was that [Harry Potter Character Name] guy from the billboard.
G: wow, did I vote for him?
J: this is the forest of no return… those who stumble in… those who tumble in… never can get out…
J: he wasn’t in our district.
G: *pant* I got to play boxing for a minute
G: before someone saw how much fun I was havin and took it away
J: are your mom & [brother] over?
G: Oh, I know he wasn’t…wasn’t he running for JP?
J: well, i’ll have to come over some day when the boys are in school and we can play to our hearts content!
G: Not yet…any time. we’re making french toast and eggs & bacon
J: yes, for JP. and he won.
J: mmm… i’ll be over in five minutes!
J: did you see that james brown died?
G: yes
G: that’s so sad.
G: I’ll have to play my James brown songs on my iPod if I ever get it back
J: lol!
J: are you going to give Vince your old one?
G: yeah, I guess I should!
G: I’m trying to figure how to get something from DVD to my iPod
J: i told dad that [restaurant buffet] l is going to be open… “Really? Well, we’ll just go out there”
G: LOL
G: works for me
J: Zappos.com has vegetarian shoes.
J: THIS is why I could never be a vegetarian http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/17300989/c/26416.html
G: I saw that somewhere when I was looking for the booots
G: LOL
J: what’s wrong with this paragraph? Caseworkers for the Texas Department of Child Protective Services have investigated the welfare and safety of Detress Richmond’s children at least eight times in the last 12 years. But the state never found a reason to remove the children until Friday, after her 9-year-old son stabbed a 2-year-old girl to death.
J: drives me insane nuts!
J: i love that “Never found a reason to remove the children until Friday” part.
G: I don’t understand why we’re so lenient with people who do bad things…like that. or someone with a DUI getting a slap on the wrist or any of that. I should go to law school
G: I know…and now someone is dead…okay, I guess something WAS really wrong.
J: i know. we should both go to law school and lobby to have stiffer DUI laws and outlaw 15 passenger vans!
J: they could do a lifetime movie of the week about us!
G: totally
G: LOL, poor Dog
G: his ball is really close to the fire place
G: and he won’t go get it
J: oh, has everyone forgotten about him with the new Wii?
G: but he’ll get like an inch from it, he just won’t follow through and grab it
J: poor baby!
J: go help him!
G: fine!
J: and tell him aunt J said she would help him if she were there!
G: I did. I told him he had you to thank
G: so you can’t legally copy a DVD and put it on your iPod
G: okay!! what kind of puppy?
J: a pursey one!
G: http://img.ziply.com/img/us/image/640m-480m/45279.jpg
J: is there another kind for me?
G: how about a dog that will carry your purse? http://www.socalpetshop.com/dogs/ZW392.jpg
G: http://images.victoriantrading.com/store/catalogimages/22w/22w83.jpg
J: um, i’ll carry my own purse, thank you
G: http://images.victoriantrading.com/store/catalogimages/22w/22w83.jpg
G: oops
G: not that
G: http://www.doggiftboneanza.com/store/WsDefault.asp?Cat=BreedDogPictureHandbags&Sub=156&isThumbs=No&Thumbs=
J: maybe i should start out with one of those and see if i can keep up with it before i get a live one
G: can you see me carrying this? http://www.doggiftboneanza.com/fpdb/images/handbagbordercollies.jpg
G: LOL, that’s a plan
J: and Bob, being practical and all will probably say, much like my father, “what are you going to do with a dog? do you know how much responsiblity they are?”
G: or here….http://www.eldoradoliving.com/dougpoodlepurse.jpg
J: i’d give a hundred dollars to see you carry a purse like that out in public.
G: Don’t tempt me
J: lol
G: [SIL]said she’d give me $100 the other night if I put my mouth under the soft serve ice cream machine. If Boy2 hadn’t run out the door and into the parking lot I’d have done it.
G: just to make her pay me $100
J: people should know better than to pull that on you. you’d do just about anything for $100. well, probably me too!
G: yeah, I know. Still kicking myself
G: If the restaurant served booze I’d be $100 richer b/c I’d surely have done it
G: how about this? http://www.majesticbayoupoodles.com/images/homepage/tiny_teacup_poodle.jpg it’s weirdly ugly yet cute
G: http://www.majesticbayoupoodles.com/puppies_for_sale.html
J: that one looks like an ardvark
J: those poodles are soo cute!
G: well, [lady] has gone through many of those from around here somewhere. if you seriously want one I can find the name
G: [brother] just gave Boy1 his Zelda game
J: well, while the poodles are really cute, if i’m going to get one it’ll be the little terrier like i’ve always wanted.
J: oh, lord
G: “You lied to me that it was a DVD but I respect that.”
J: LOL
G: Okay, we’re gonna eat.
J: okay
G: I’ll be back sometime. Enjoy your Westerns.
J: oh, yeah. i will!
G: so [brother] downloaded two episodes of the Office (that I’ve already seen) and watched them on my iPod
J: have you got to watch anything yet?
G: nope
G: well, I mean I watched some of the Spongebob I downloaded it
J: my mom just said she thinks she needs an iPod. I told her that she could have mine…
J: of course, and she could buy me a new one. she doesn’t need a souped up one!
G: yeah, that works well
G: no, exactly
J: are the boys still playing the Wii?
G: no, we’re having a break
G: trying to get Boy2 to lay down. he’s exhausted
G: actually, now that you say that, I think [brother]’s on it
J: i bet. how’s dog on his first christmas?
G: C and I are upstairs
G: well, he’s in the crate at the moment. He’s tried to eat Legos and stuff. But he’s been good.
G: this morning he was more tired than the boys…I’m sure every move Boy1 made last night woke him up
G: he came and laid his head in my lap
J: how sweet
J: well, i’ve already put all my Christmas stuff up.
G: LOL, seriously?
G: I’m ready to but I’m trying to hold off
J: i knew if i didn’t do it now it’d be next year before i got to it.
J: well, and not that my mom did that much, she kinda helped find boxes and stuff so that made it go quicker.
J: and i rearranged my living room
G: okey doke
J: we went to eat at [restaurant buffet] for lunch
G: not good?
G: that sucks
J: it was not good for me.
J: the stuffing was dry and they didn’t have any good desserts
G: they didn’t have chicken strips?
J: no chicken strips.
J: OH. Friday night Bob made these chicken pita things and i ate the Feta Cheese and the veggies he put in it without even turning up my nose.
G: yay for you
G: so was it good? I forgot to ask that. Is he a good cook??
J: yeah, it was really good.
J: i’m worried that he’ll decide he doesn’t like me after he tastes my cooking.
G: LOL
G: I’ll teach you
G: all you do is get a recipe book and follow the directions!!!
J: i’m sure i’m not that bad, but, you know my fear about making people sick with my cooking
J: i told him i wanted to name my daughter Hermione and i don’t think he cared for that idea much (i just saw a picture of her, btw, that’s what made me think of it)
G: LOL
J: did Boy2 get his golf club washer?
G: yes, and let me tell you, he was EXCITED about it!!!!!!!!1
G: So I want to borrow your Devil Wears Prada
J: okay.
J: i’m trying to talk my mom into the iPod thing… at first she said she wouldn’t even know how to use one. then she says, “how much are iPods?”
G: LOL…
G: oh, not much
G: I know, I let my mom listen to all my Frank Sinatra
J: i just want one with more GB so i can put more CDs on it and get rid of all these stupid CDs I have junking up my living room.
J: has Vince taken over your old one yet?
G: not yet
J: well, when he does don’t let him think my cord is yours!
G: I won’t, he knows
G: I told him, “I guess I don’t need to buy a cord now” It’s the same cord, we can share it
J: there you go
J: well, i kept having to catch myself ’cause i wanted to say that a couple of times when you were talking about it
G: LOL
G: oh man, my mom makes these sweet appetizers…it’s like cheese whiz and breadcrumbs baked around a green olive
J: mmm. i’m having a piece of fudge.
G: [brother]’s talking to the Wii game
G: “hurry!”
J: lol!
G: I should be ripping Little Mermaid. Then I could give it back to you
J: yeah. or RENT.
G: LOL
G: now my mom’s got my iPod…see
J: i know how you feel… i’d like to watch my Dirty Dancing DVD but no, i’m watching The Honeymooners
G: [brother] just asked if she wanted one
G: “I don’t know how to do that”
G: Just plug it into your computer.
G: “Well how does the music get in your computer??”
G: magic
J: lol. our moms…
G: okay, I’m doing Little Mermaid now
G: did I tell you about that 20Q(uestions) thing we got Boy1? For his stocking?
J: No. But I was going to get you one of those for your birthday!
G: LOL.
G: darn!
G: Vince’s playing it right now
G: I’m gonna take the dog out.
J: k’
G: he’s been in the crate a while and I’ve eaten so much I need to walk
G: bbl
G: what game should I download for my iPod?
G: Grandma’s beating everyone at Wii bowling!
J: LOL!!!
G: Boy2: “Dad you’re getting killed by a woman.”
J: LOL!!!
J: are you videoing any of it?
G: I haven’t played yet BTW!
G: No, I should be, shouldn’t I?
J: man, I don’t want to be a mom. You don’t get to play with your iPod OR the Wii!
J: You should be videoing it. If something great happens you can put it on You Tube!
G: LOL. I know
G: Okay, I video’d a little
J: so, I talked to my, dare I say, boyfriend?
G: She beat Vince 209 to 130
G: did you call him?
J: awesome!
J: Yes, I finally caved. But when he answered he said, “Hey, I was fixing to call you”. If I had been just a little more patient. Oh, well.
G: that’s okay. You CAN make the first move sometimes
G: OMG, I’m so freaking hot. We’ve had a fire going all day.
G: okay, seriously I’m going to change. I’m sweating
G: tell me what your boyish friendish person had to say
J: boyish friendish person… that’s a good one.
G: LOL
J: well, he said a lot more than he’s ever said to me on the phone before. he’s already on his way home…um… told him i got my hair cut. “tell me it’s not short”. I told him he’d have to wait and find out.
J: he said he was excited about his magazine. i told him I was too.
G: hee hee..you guys are so cute
J: my dad has it on the Discovery Channel. they are having a documentary about paranas.
J: or how ever you spell it.
G:
J: yeah, i know.
G: man, this sucks
J: well, and then he asked me if i thought my toe was broken ’cause i was whining about how bad it hurt. well, not really whining, but just mentioning it.
G: I’ve got Little Mermaid on my iPod and there’s no sound!!!!!
G: I’ve done it twice
J: you can’t have the Little Mermaid with no sound!
J: Maybe that’s how they keep you from ripping it
G: well but I’m using the software that’s supposed to let you do that
J: hmmm…
J: OH I forgot to tell you who was at our candlelight communion last night. [bitch]!
G: praise the lord!
J: lol
G: She NEEDS church!
J: yes she does. her dad used to be one of our board members and they were really involved in the church.
J: i nearly choked when i saw her walk up.
J: funny thing was she came through twice. i guess once was to get the juice and cracker for someone else, but I thought, “Man, she could use a double dose!”
G: LOL
G: NO SECONDS!!!!!!!!!
J: LOL!!!
J: I think Bob Garcia is gay.
J: he’s wearing lip gloss
G: His teeth are awfully….
G: Mom: “He’s kind of a doofus isn’t he?’
J: he beat the cowboys so i think he’s doubly gay right now.
G: hee hee
G: check ESPN
J: my dad has the remote
G: Michael Irvin has a checkered crushed velvet suit
G: blue & black
G: with a red tie
J: i think steve young is cute
G: he is
G: there’s Michael
J: oh, wow. that is quite a suit
G: You really need a close up to appreciate it
J: if i have to install my iPod software one more time i’m going to scream.
J: wow.
J: that suit.
J: you would never see emmit smith in a suit like that
G: true
G: Deion Sanders maybe
J: oh, yeah. absoultley Deion
J: i don’t want my mommy and daddy to go home
G: Well they stayed longer than you expected!!
J: yeah, that’s true
J: my dad has never seen Radio
G: um, I haven’t either.
J: but you’re not my dad, the prince of loving sappy football movies
G: okay, good point
J: there are very few movies my dad will watch. sappy football ones are those.
J: well, my boyish friendish person and I would be a two dog family if i ever get my pursey dog.
G: well, your pursey dog doesn’t count as a whole dog
J: lol
J: Bob’s dog is not mean, but he could eat my little Audrey in one bite.
G: well, something to think about
J: think Dog would try to eat her?
G: um
G: no
J: or would he be scared of her?
G: LOL. No,he’s not a weenie anymore
G: yesterday at my mom’s the house across had a border collie in their pen behind their house. Not sure if she’s there visiting or we’ve just never seen her. He let her have it.
J: good for him
J: it’s about time he toughens up
J: 
G: no, he’s not a weenie anymore. I don’t know what happened.
J: i’ll brb. i have to reboot my computer.

G: good to know
J: yeah, i thought you might want to know.
G: yeah, trying to think of anyone I know in Vietnam
G: okay, so Dog is a little scared of Cat
J: well, he does have a history with him
G: sorry, but the Cowboys deserve Terrell Owens.
G: He’s a moron
J: yes he is.
G: the dog farted
J: gross
G: I’m sure it was those olive & cheese appetizers he had earlier
J: gross!
G: Okay, I’m trying this Little Mermaid thing ONE more time and then I’m splurging on software
J: my dad has this uncanny ability to turn the channel just when something is getting good.
G: sounds very familiar
G: VERY
J: yeah, maybe it’s just a man thing?
J: don’t laugh but I think Ed Harris is quite attractive.
G: there’s something strangely hot about him
G: Okay, why do I have these songs on my iTunes and yet I can’t find them existing anywhere else
J: hmm…
J: I should get this to support my boyish friendish person http://www.phonestyle.com/Motorola/covers/snap-on/v3-kansas-city.jpg
J: yeah, i’m not, though. too bad i’m not that kinda girl.
G: Bill Cosby’s stand-up is on…Himself? I remember when I was younger this was funny but now it’s all about parenthood and the son is 11 and it’s sooo relevant.
G: “…the brain damaged children….”
J: i can hear him saying that.
J: so, my diet officially starts tomorrow.
J: am i going to have to start having lunch alone now????
G: yeah, me too!! holy cow. I’ve been so bad
G: No, I promise
G: Especially once school starts.
G: I know Wednesday I’m going out with Angie
J: oh, yeah. she came to church sunday morning
G: tomorrow I dunno…my mom is going to make me CRAZY trying to plan stuff
J: plan what stuff?
G: whatever..just every minute of every day
G: Luckily once [brother] leaves she may leave me alone
G: brb
G: nevermind
G: the dog wants to go to bed but before I could get up Vince took him
J: well, how nice of him!
J: is your mom & bro still there?
G: YES
G: I’m TIRED
J: are the boys still going?
G: no, they’re out…long ago

G: what time is it? I have no idea
J: well, when you asked it was 8:24. Now is
J: it is 8:30
G: holy crap…I’m ready for bed. I thought it was like 10
J: lol
J: my dad doesn’t even know what happened on this movie and he’s crying
J: don’t tell Vince ’cause he’ll make fun of me (like you won’t) but i was cleaning out my DVD/VCR tapes and I found about 10 [show]’s videos. I threw them all away.
J: I also found a video tape of the 1998 CMA awards.
G: LOL
G: and LOL
G: we’ve got a bunch of [show]’s videos in the basement
J: i love my new straightner. thanks to you and your stories i got the extended warranty through sally’s, though.
G: good idea
G: what brand is it? The Chi?
J: no, it’s not a Chi. i’m not sure what brand it is but it cost $89.99 so it better be a good one!
G: I figured [hairdresser] made you get the Chi..LOL. She’s always lectured me on that
J: she told me to get one, but they didn’t have them.
J: i can’t wait to get my hair colored. i love [friend] and i think she does a great job, but [hairdresser] seems to be a little more hip, kwim?
G: yes, totally
G: I’m always like that
G: I won’t let someone do my hair unless I like theirs. LOL
G: That’s why I’m glomming on to [other hair dresser] like Iam
J: and the salon [hairdresser]’s in is really cute.
G: yeah, it is
J: i said something about her doing the boys hair and she said, “yeah, but G hasn’t let me do her’s yet” and kinda laughed
G: I know, it isn’t personal! I swear. It’s just [other hairdresser] was HERE
G: and now that she’s not…I will probably just go to [hairdresser]
G: but b/c she’s here every 6 weeks([other hairdresser]) it’s still working okay
J: my phone battery has stayed charged all day so maybe my battery is healed.
G: yay
G: you know, I’ve plugged mine in and had it drain
G: and I’ve plugged it in and done nothing
G: and then I jiggle it or remove it or whatever and it’s all right again
G: okay, last try on the Little Mermaid and it still didn’t work
J: have you tried it on the tv to make sure that it still has volume on it???
G: tried what?
J: tried to watch it on the tv to see if it still has sound. maybe that’s what i shoulda said
G: the DVD?
J: yes. i’m trying to be silly here and you’re making it really hard!
G: I’m TIRED! LOL! Don’t fuck with me!!!!!!! LOL. YES, the volume is still on your DVD, it hasn’t worn off.

G: We’re watching Biloxi Blues
G: well, that’s what’s on the TV
G: Vince’s watching his Queen DVD and I’m watching Little Mermaid for the moment
G: Vince just asked me why I needed to rip the DVDs
G: Well why the hell did you buy me a VIDEO iPod?
G: WTF?
G: “Can’t you download them?”
J: lol!
G: Yeah, and pay for them each time
G: or each movie
G: I’m thinking this is where Netflix will come in handy
J: speaking of… i have A Prarie Home Companion that I haven’t watched yet
G: we have Supersize Me
J: have you seen this Grease thing?
G: it says if I buy this one software I get this thing http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/18/myvu-lcd-goggles-for-ipod-reviewed/ free
G: I’ve seen teh commercials…it’s not on yet is it?
J: no, it comes on on January 7th
J: the same night as the new Apprentice
G: oh boy

J: you could wear those while you carry your new [dog breed] purse
G: Yeah, great idea
G: look at this stuff…isn’t it neat?
J: i love that song!
G: me too
G: crap, my head hurts too bad to figure this out
J: you’ve had a long, busy day!
G: it *says* 1-click direct DVD to iPod video conversion

G: I have Shall We Dance on MP3
J: i can’t wait to have a kid to share my love of show tunes with
G: and a few Oklahoma
G: and the rest is Chorus Line, Producers & Wicked
G: I know, when Boy1 was really little he could sing Sound of Music
G: he could sing it better than he coudl talk
J: how cute
G: Vince was sure I was making him gay
J: lol
G: man, my neck and head hurt. I SWEAR if I get sick I’m KICKING [brother]‘S ASS
J: i think i’ll hold off on singing the songs of RENT to my kids until they are a little older.
J: as well you should!
G: I dunno…besides Annie I also knew the Chorus Line & Grease songs.
G: look at me, I’m Sandra Dee…lousy with virginity….
G: I was like 4
J: um, have you heard La Vive Bohem?
G: yeah, I know…have you heard Greased lighting? LOL
J: lol!
J: two people from our church had babies today!
G: wow
J: and what’s funny is that they are these two huge homeschool families who are really good friends.
G: wonder if it is possible to OD on zinc & Vitamin C?
J: one of them is the family who’s son died here recently… remember them? hopefully that’ll give them a little bit of a happier holiday since it’s the first without Eric
G: oh I think so.
G: oh yeah, I need to figure out when I got those Target boots
G: I think I wrote a check…or Debit? I think if you did they can look it up.
J: well, if you got them that night we went shopping i think you only used cash at NY & Co. Do not ask me how I remember that.
G: LOL
G: because that was my allowance
G: but I’m betting money Target doesn’t have those anymore so now I need to find new brown boots again!
G: sheesh
G: so was it October? does that narrow it down?
J: what a pain. hope you have better luck than i am.
G: beginning of October?
J: BF #4 is on tv
J: he’s so cute
G: I’m thinking Pinnacle opened around the 1st week
J: good point. if you can figure out when they opened then you’ll be able to narrow it down.
G: 10/10/06!
G: that’s when we went
J: there you go!
J: how did you figure that out?
G: I used my Debit Card
G: Quicken
J: awesome!
G: wonder what their return policy is though? 30 days probably…or some crap
J: well, you would think if they are falling apart they would make an exception.
G: I know. COnsidering I’ve worn them like 3 times
G: I can’t find their policy. Target.com.au (Austraila) says they’ll take anything with a receipt
G: I bet the receipt might be in my files b/c Vince took them all
J: wouldn’t you be lucky if it was?
G: totally!
G: We will issue a full refund for most items returned within 90 days in new condition, with the original receipt or packing slip, packaging and accessories.
J: well, you’ve got the 90 days
G: I just told Vince…”Well how much did you pay for them?” Okay, like $25 probably BUT
G: and the fact they both ripped like that at the same time. I mean one’s worse than the other
J: exactly.
G: In most instances, Target stores can verify purchases made within the last 90 days on a store account, third-party charge account, check or GiftCard using our unique Receipt Look-up system.
J: that’s good to know
J: like, if i need to take Boy2’s chef hat back or something
G: you’ll have to wrestle that from him
J: did [brother] get him more food?
G: no
G: he couldn’t find anything
G: he ended up getting him a Wii game too–Spongebob
G: They got so many we haven’t even looked at them all
J: this guy just won $138,000 on 1 vs 1000
J: 100
J: i wish i could win $138,000
G: cool for him
G: can’t you watch at home and play?
G: or was that Deal or No Deal?
J: no, i think you can play at home on both of them
G: well why ain’tcha?
J: there must be a lot of people trying to redeem iTunes gift cards. i can’t get it to work. [J's brother] got me some downloads and i want to use them!
G: yeah, I couldn’t get a game most of the afternoon/evening
J: well, i finally got it to take my card now let’s see if it’ll let me download anything
G: they have some mini-golf game Boy2 was begging me to download
G: OMG, Vince is freezing under the covers and I’m sweating on top of hte covers
G: I had to turn the fan off
J: one of you are sick
J: it worked finally
G: yay
G: oh, you want your dad to cry more??? Rudy is on!
J: he watched that just not long ago he says
J: why did the puppy have to grow up????
G: I know!!! my baby!!!
J: that’s why i’m getting a dog that doesn’t get very big.
J: we might have snow next sunday morning
G: yippee!!
G: I was going to say, “Great, just in time to go back to school” but we have a whole WEEK after that don’t we? ugh
J: yes you do!
G: Serenity Now!! (Seinfeld reference)
G: Hey, does Bob watch Seinfeld? I’m trying to figure out how to get you to watch this
J: Bob is with you on the whoe Seinfeld thing
J: lol
G: I couldn’t even celebrate Festivus with you
G: Yay! More points for Bob
J: i saw something online about that and i was totally confused.
G: how so?
J: i had no idea what they were talking about
G: Frank Costanza, George’s dad, hated the commercialism of Christmas
G: once he was at a toy store getting something for George when he was a kid, and someone wrestled it from him
J: okay
G: so he made his own holiday
J: i see
G: so instead of a tree they have an aluminum pole
J: ahhh… gotcha
G: and it is not decorated
G: because Frank “Finds tinsel distracting”
G: and then…this is so great…at dinner they have the Airing of Greivances
G: you go around and tell everyone how they disappointed you this year
G: and then they have the Feats of Strength and it isn’t over until the head of the house is pinned to the ground
J: i love how you can tell me all this in such great detail!
G: LOL…I am telling you this is my favorite show ever
G: Seinfeld that is…this is not my favorite episode
G: my favorite, shockingly involves Mel Torme thinking Kramer is handicapped (retarded)
J: well anything where someone is mistaken for a retarded person would be funny to me!
G: oh yeah, and in the festivus episode, George doesn’t know what to give as gifts
G: at work
G: so he says he’s making donations in their names
G: but he’s not
G: so when they ask him what the organization is, he makes it up..”The Human Fund”
G: That Manhattan Diffusion has a holiday scent called Festivus
J: you shoulda gotten it
G: I know, I wanted to
G: I need to see if I can buy that episode @ iTunes!
J: then I could borrow your iPod!
G: yes!
J: i have the last two episodes of 24 on my iTunes if you want those!
G: BTW, Little Mermaid is working
G: are those with [girl]?
J: no. i think she’s going to be in next season.
G: oh
G: but that’s soon?
J: she came up on Friday but i wasn’t there
G: January 2007
G: I thought
J: well, the new season starts like on the 16th or 17th.
J: so, just tell me when you’re tired of me saying Bob, but he says he’s going to watch American Idol and 24 this season. I’m sure it’s not just because of me, but, well, you know…
G: LOL
G: I’m not tired of it!!
G: I bet American Idol is just for you!
J: i just don’t want to get all happy about it and all… you know…
J: so i’m trying to keep my feet on the ground.
J: yes, I’m sure AI is just for me.
G: you can buy Josh Duhamel on Soapography on iTunes
G: for $1.99
J: oh, yeah? i’ll have to go check that out
J: he’s so cute
J: so, does this mean i have to make Bob #1 on my bf list?
G: um, yes, I think it does
J: crap. it’s going to be hard to replace George. he’s been there for so long.
G: I don’t think he’ll be that upset
J: you’re probably right.
J: they are showing something on ABC about Christianity and they just showed this big youth rally thing and I betcha at least one of the t-shirts there were designed by my boyfriend.
G: why don’t we think about YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaeQz5HwfoI
G: *giggle*
J: i have to tell you, it’s a bit of a turn on to think about all the people who are wearing shirts that he designed.
G: LOL
G: it’s very impressive
J: and he’s really good. he designed my favorite. i told him about my favorite hoping he’d take a hint and buy it for me for $5.
G: lol
J: is that Jack Black
G: it says in the comments it’s not
G: I’m hungry
J: ugh. i couldn’t eat another thing
G: I would think that yet it’s not true
G: leftover ravioli? leftover prime rib? the Magic cookie bars are really calling me!
G: I put WAY more chocolate chips in than you’re supposed to…they’re divine!
J: mmmmm… now that sounds good.
G: I *swear* I took a Tylenol PM at 9:00
J: i can’t believe that you’re still up
G: I know…I’m not sleepy, just tired
G: 40 year old virgin is on THREE of the HBO channels
J: i need to borrow that and watch it with Bob and then say, “Oh, by the way…”
G: LOL
G: okay
J: actually, i’m not going to have that conversaion until I absolutley have to.
J: that’s not lying, right?
G: no…you need to see the movie so you can see how he handled it!
J: did you know[name]moved to Chicgao and is going to be a pilot?
G: yes
G: and he still thinks he’s not gay too
G: LOL
J: yeah. right.
J: okay, i’m going to sleep. i can’t believe you’re still up!
G: I know! I mean I had TONS of coffee and pop today to keep me up but why hasn’t that Tylenol PM kicked in? It usually works anyway. I”m going to play Boy2’s new gameboy game
J: well, i hope you tucker out soon (if you want, that is!)
G: Yes! I do!
G: or I could go downstairs and bowl
G: but considering they were out before 8pm….
J: now that sounds like fun
G: they’ll be up at the crack of dawn
G: wait, it isn’t dawn until 7. They’ll be up at the crack of 5
J: you only have 6 hours
G: damn
G: I really need to go to sleep
J: okay, well i’ll talk to you tomorrow sometime. Nite!
G: good night!
