The Case of the Missing Cookies

I'm taking my parents to court
to prove I'm an innocent kid.
The judge will most surely agree
that they're wrong about what I did.

Just because all my fingers were sticky
and chocolate was on my face,
doesn't mean I stole those cookies.
So there! I rest my case.

What's that you say, you need more proof?
I have an alibi.
When the cookies got stolen, I was outside.
Now I ask you, why would I lie?

You have no witnesses on your side;
just circumstantial lies.
I think the real crook snuck inside
in a masterful disguise.

Maybe he was disguised as me.
I really cannot say.
All I know is I did not
steal any cookies that day.

Now judge, I ask for sympathy,
so please instruct the jury
to say that I'm not guilty
(and to say it in a hurry!)

My folks are looking quite annoyed
that I've taken things this far.
But it's not as if they caught me
with my hands in the cookie jar.

The jury's back, the verdict's in.
Guilty?! That can't be!
I gathered all the evidence
that should have set me free.

Where did I go wrong, and now
what will my sentence be?
Three years of washing dishes, no!
No way! They can't mean me!

The next time I take my parents to court
(though I doubt it will be in my youth)
I'll make sure that what I'm saying
is actually the truth.

If you aren't willing to sound stupid......

I know everyone already knows this, but I just want to reiterate....I AM IN LOVE!!!! I have the world's best fiance. He makes me feel so much better every day about what I am doing, what I will be doing, and what I'm afraid to do. He is the one person who will give up anything to be there for me. Sometimes I need him when I didn't even realize how much. I totally underestimate how much he cares about me. I sometimes get to busy and forget to love him back the same way. This is going to change. I'm going to give him all that he deserves. In a few short months we will be getting married! When I get nervous about it, I will just talk to him and he will make it all go away.

As for a real update: Teaching is A-M-azing! I am remembering why I chose to do this in the first place.

What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
Brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, i don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine
and it's brighter than sunshine

well....what can I say. I'm kinda tired of being home. Home is just kinda a mixture of boring and insanity. What I don't understand is how Dean can dred going back to school and I am dying to go back. We are so different from each other, sometimes it's a great thing and sometimes it's not so great. I've gotten a lot done over this break, but I don't know if it will ever be enough. When can it ever be enough. I think I'm worried that I'll have a life of never ending overwhelmness....Anyways, I'm still thinking. I wish I could stop.

Last week in Indy was crazy...freezing cold nights, frostbite, throwing up on a table in a resteraunt...all in one day!!! You know me, I know how to keep things exciting. Let's not forget napping on the couch, calling my sister to see if we'll survive.LOL

Baby shower went well...I'm super excited to have a lil baby niece or nephew. My sister is the most adorable pregnant person ever!

Wedding planning is going well...I suppose, Dean and I have began tag teaming it all. Registering, wedding invitations, looking for house stuff : )

Today I received an application for diploma in the mail...HOLY CRAP it's really happening! Scared, excited, nervous, happy, sad, pretty much every emotion you can imagine. Seriously, name one and I feel it.

Lot's to do, my classes are kickin my ass as usual. However, I'm kicking em' right back in the balls!

Sorry I didn't get to see 2 of my favorite people last week. Sara and Travnasty, I miss you guys times infinity. Sara, what you said about Laguna is so true! You gotta have a sexy bitch on the show, come on people!

I love you Stary, thanks for the mail :)

Thanksgiving Break!!!! Well, tomorrow anyways.

Thu, 03 Nov 2005 17:57:28 GMT

well...what can i say?
Camp Reunion was a blast! I love that place so much, and I think Dean finally realizes why it's so special to me. Still have no idea where Buster's is. Still love every spot of that camp...except maybe the a&c room.haha. Anyways, my job...well it's been better. I'm not completely happy, but it happens. My classes, kickin some butt on both parts, I'm doing very well, but it's been a lot of work! Wedding plans...there coming along, sorta. I'm extremely excited to be married to my love! I've made a big decision: I am going to stay in K-Mo for Jan Term. No class, No work, just play...well sorta, I'll be doing some wedding planning, some portfolio work, and some student teaching work. But, I'll be away from here. Hard to believe the semester is almost over! Still lots to be done.

I just want to say that I miss some people very much right now, you know who you are! I love you, and hope to see you soon.

Another amazing book:
"I don't want to be alone. I have never wanted to be alone. I fucking hate it. I hate that I have no one to talk to, I hate that I have no one to call, I hate that I have no one to hold my hand, hung me, tell me everything is going to be all right. I hate that I have no one to share my hopes and dreams with, I hate that I no longer have any hopes or dreams, I hate that I have no one to tell me to hold on, that I can find them again."

“And while I don’t think I’d be any good at being a boy, given the fact that I am constantly afraid, constantly crying, and characteristically weak, I envy the fact that boyhood’s rules are consistent. Being male is not a mess of contradictions, the way being female is. It is not trying to resolve how to be both desirable and smart, soft and sturdy, emotional and capable.”

~ Koren Zailckas, author of Smashed: The Story of a Drunken Girlhood

Amazing book, amazing author, scary story, this paragraph summarizes everything many of us have felt, if you ever have the chance read the book, you won't be sorry.

nothin's ever promised tomorrow, today

Tue, 11 Oct 2005 04:30:18 GMT

Wowza...life is crazy!
I miss a lot of people.
School is ridiculously busy, some people really piss me off and stress me out. Some people make me really happy. I want so much right now to accomplish everything I need to. Wedding plans stress me out. I don't know what I'm doing, so yeah... I love my residents and always will! I had the best experience in my life last week. I got to teach 3rd graders all week and loved every single second of it!!! I will miss them. It's homecoming this week...lots going on.
Anyways...

shake yo' laffy taffy, that laffy taffy!!!

1. Reply with your name and I will write something random about you.

2. I will then tell you what song/movie reminds me of you.

3. I will pick a flavor of jello to wrestle with you in.

4. I will say something that only makes sense to you and me.

5. I will tell you my first memory of you.

6. I will tell you what animal you remind me of.

7. I'll then ask you something that I've always wondered about you.

8. If I do this for you, you MUST post this on your LJ (if you'd like that is!)

Wow!!! Life is crazy. Classes are busy. RA stuff is busy. Student teaching is busy. Therefore I'm busy. Sorry if any of you feel neglected. I love everyone. Things are good though. I'm beginning to get into wedding planning mode...finally, problem is I'm in love with someone else....lol. Most people already know this, but I admit it right here on livejournal, I love GABE TRIBETT!!! I love RA friends! I taught 1st grade all by myself yesterday and I loved every minute of it! They were cute and pretty well behaved, just chatty. I am in much need of sleep and alcohol. I shall take care of both of these things this weekend! Do I see a drunk dial in my future?....All signs point to hell yeah! I will be spending wednesday in indy with some cool kids and visiting the children's museum on thursday...super exciting! Until then I should lock myself in my room and sleep...but I won't! Time to go.
DEAN DAY!!!

this is your birthday song (clap clap clap)

Fri, 26 Aug 2005 06:00:37 GMT

so...a lot has gone on in the past few days. Lots and lots of RA training. Some wonderful student teaching experiences. A pretty sweet trip to Chicago, in which I got to know a couple of amazing guys. Just realized there's a whole in the knee of my pants...dang it! The stress is headed my way, as I still need to do door decs and my bulletin board, and make some signs, and ....I could go on forever, but I won't. Ewww ewww $364.00 on books today, talk about a damper on my wedding money and my life. Gosh, what else. Moulin Rouge lip sync action going on tomorrow night, I always knew I was meant to play the part of a prostitute, good times. Bought some cute new clothes in Chicago, all professional wear of course : ) Did I mention that I don't know what I'm doing, well I don't. Our staff is pretty cool, if it weren't for the little tention that's in the air, the air near one person that is. Did I say that I got to hang out with the wonderful Melinda Harris, also accompionied by Stacey and Baana (yep i hugged him, twice!) We had a wonderful dinner together! Anyways, lots to do, but I for one am sleeping in tomorrow : )
love you all!

Loving Life : )

Fri, 19 Aug 2005 23:27:26 GMT

I have some pretty amazing people in my life. Staci, Jessica Strange, and my lil south african Lindsay, all sent me mail today!!! First of all, I love real mail, secondly, my life is so busy and stressful right now that the mail made me incredibly happy. So thank you! Also, I have amazing residents who im me and call me all excited to move in and be on my floor for another year, I love them for that.I also receive middle of the night phone calls from people....that I enjoy. And I love my RA staff of last year and this year both! And first grade is a lot of fun! Not to mention a visit from my MC alumni BF is goin down this weekend, and possibly a visit from the fiance. Life is good.

Q) What am I doing?

A) being lazy

"What can I do to prove it
When I think of your smile I lose it
And when I gaze in those eyes my heart flips upside down inside my chest
you know you're the best
Cuz every moment that we share is total pleasure
and baby my love for you is something they can't measure
I know it might be hard to grasp, but this is something that could last forever
So tell me why we can't be together"

Jess and i took our CPR test, we are officially re-certified life-savers...scary thought. Brooke and i went to see Sara's play. The drive to indy sucked let me tell ya...it was nice to see Sara and watch what she has been working on for so long. The play was...a bit on the weird side, but non the less good. Sam is the man! I got to see my sister and that was fun as usual. I hung out with Dean...no engagement yet to speak of. I said no to babysit...even though i need wait NEED the money, bc i wanted to be with deanie. I slept a lot this weekend and did some homework hardcore yesterday. This will be a lil hectic, but not too bad. some hw to do for Race, Ethnic, and Gender Group Relations and a lil for Lit Block, a Camera Tech exam...and leaving on Thursday. My sister is graduating this weekend and I am so very proud! Well its time for a nap...zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Sooo....it's been like what 10 years or so? Well, what can I say life sucks and even worse I suck at it. Things have been a little up, a little down, mostly in between. Right now I'm sitting on Travnasty's lap listening to Bright Eyes(who else) and writing this crap. School's been pretty much insane, RA stuff pretty good. Had my interview for next year, should be a go. I got my camp contract, HHC here I come, as a counselor this time...it's gonna be a totally different experience for me, but we'll see. I'm gonna make a shirt that says "Where's Travis?" and maybe several others. Found my engagement ring in my boyfriends drawer...total accident, but I talked myself out of looking at it, that takes self control, something I didn't know I had. Partied a lil with the BFF...home Bff that is. Good times FAT BIOTCH sucks!!! I mean who picks someones phone up and calls someone on it, really?? What else...Jess doesn't love us, we're going to see Star tomorrow and she isn't coming with :( Supposed to be going to see Sara now...waiting waiting. Ooo Ooo went to ACB today and got the sweetest 50's dress...it's hot. Get to see Nichole tomorrow too, Yay!!! Everyone's in Florida, but I'm enjoying my break from the crap I do everyday, not that I don't love all of you, just tired that's all. Scary story, my friend was followed by some captain creepies...ewww = no sleep for a night or two. Staff retreat is planned, we're going to Turkey Run to camp...how awesome is that?! And it should be a good time, our staff is pretty sweet, we had a Napoleon staff meeting and everyone did a great job! Trav and I went to the OG tonight, god chocolate lasagna is so damn good!! and chocolate chips totally win for the record. I think that might be it for now..."Save the Amaretto!"

It's our theme song!

Mon, 14 Mar 2005 04:45:43 GMT

well...I had two really good weekends in a row, much in thanks to my absolutely incredible boyfriend. I can't wait for the day to come when I can refer to him as my fiance! Lil Sibs stuff was a lot of fun and Dani and Arionna had a good time here, so that makes me happy. I got a little bit of work done, but not enough. Emilee aka...my roomie was here for the evening on Wednesday and it was so nice to see her again, I realized how much I missed her. She is such a great person regardless of the comment to the cop! haha! ask and I'll tell ya. Staci might come sometime this week...who knows. I have a crap load of work to do, so I'll be pretty busy, sorry in advance to those of you that might be waiting for a visit, or a letter, or even just a conversation. I miss camp right now, that place is my happy place. It is gorgeous. It won't be long till I'm there again, I talked to Dean about it this weekend and we decided to try to see each other every other if not every weekend over the summer, so we can be happy together and apart. Other stuff going on this week, RA interview(even though I should be leading the interviews), Camera Techniques Test(not a joke, it's hard), preschool stuff, and lots of crap due. Spring Break is sooo soo close, yet not close enough. I better get work done.
P.S. Finding Neverland=Best Movie Ever Made!!! I am in love with it forever!
