As the clock comes closer to midnight I realize it is only too soon until 2 things happen.

1. I turn 21 and become an "official" adult
2. A couple friends may attempt to get me drunk

Here's the thing, their agenda shall fail them for there is something they aren't aware of. I have an agenda as well:

Mission Statement for the Official Adult known as Colleen Evanson:
I, Colleen Evanson, will not get drunk when I turn 21. Though there maybe be conspiracies against such a belief these forces that be are unaware that I can take a challenge and HARK! I shall emerge victorious!

Bring it on.

I haven't really become inspired nor do I really want to be posting. I just felt like I should and I could just improv it as I went along. I'm really doing this for the few who hopelessly check and go, "Drat!!" or perhaps you scream "Curses!" to the sky when you see that I hath not updated. And when I say "curses" I mean the actual word not the explitives.

I really like the song "Let's get Retarded" by the Black Eyed Peas, however I don't like singing the words since I don't like to use the word 'retarded.' This makes it rather awkward to fully enjoy this song as it ought to be. Now they made another version called "Let's get it Started" but for some reason it just doesn't quite "drop it like it's hot" as the previous. Which leads me to another question of what "drop it like it's hot" really means. Sure it's some new slang that the kids really enjoy learning from the Master of the english language, the one, the only, Snoop Dog (is it D-O-double G still or just Dog? I'm unsure).

To drop is an action or perhaps one might say, a verb. Some people drop things on accident, or because the weight is too heavy, or it slips, or maybe they did it on purpose to anger another individual. But in this case you drop this item because it is hot. It's completely understandable, when you burn yourself you tend to want to let go of whatever is causing you this pain.

But what, I must ask, are you dropping? Is it a heated pot holding something like soup, or perhaps an adorable Precious Moments doll featuring a little boy and a puppy? Or maybe it's something that we don't value like let's say an F bomb. People drop F bombs all the time and one could argue that many would drop an F bomb if they were carrying something hot. One could also argue that if you did happen to drop a Precious Moments keepsake that you would drop the F bomb, as the expensive ceramic remains close to your heart since someone like Grandma probably gave it to you because let's be honest you don't buy yourself those things. However, I can't preceive a situation where the Precious Moment would become super heated so you would drop it. Although, on closer inspection I realized he claims you should "drop it LIKE it's hot." Not that it IS hot.

Hizzah! The answer is here. Drop your Precious Moments as if they somehow became too warm for your hands to hold them. Make it look like an accident too but clean it up soon because you wouldn't want to cut your foot.

You know, previously I thought "dropping like it's hot" implied one should bust a move while listening to some "mad phat" beats, but I think this theory makes MUCH more sense.
