A convo about "lol"

Lactaid Lady: LoL
THATgirl8976: are you really loling or just humoring me?
Lactaid Lady: no i actually did
Lactaid Lady: thats what happens with it goes to caps
Lactaid Lady: i dont lie
THATgirl8976: yeaaaaaaah
THATgirl8976: yeah when i HAHAHA i'm laughing out loud
Lactaid Lady: so now we will know when we actually make each other laugh
THATgirl8976: exactly
Lactaid Lady: and when we're just being polite

May that be a warning to all of you who think you make me laugh when you see plain ol' lower caps "lol"

How did Tina Turner's "What's Love Got to do With it?" get in my head? And does this "love" she speaks of have anything to do with it?

Yep, I'm a nerd.

Seeing that finals are coming up and i have lots of projects I dunno how much this will be updated. But I do know that my addiction to Thai food will not be stopped, that's for damn sure.

New pic and slogan.

Good times.

So last Tues I walked into Culture and Media noticing the teacher was handing out something that looked like a test, but thought it couldnt be bc I totally forgot and wasn't ready to take this test. But it was.

I debated whether or not I should just leave, or try my luck. I tried it. I did well on the 5 mult choice but I dodged many parts to the essay question because I didnt know the difference between a more and a folktale in social terms OR what the word subversive meant. I was embarassed for my sub-par argument which I made up on the spot.

All this week I have been dreading getting the test back with curious anticipation thinking maybe there was a chance I did well on it.

I got it back Thursday. Before the teacher handed it to me I said, "this outta be interesting because I forgot all about this test."

I looked at the grade. Cartoon double take with boing sound. It was the best grade I got so far in this class.

So I study and I get a B, I dont and somehow in my incoherent rambling I get an A.
Say wha?

A 1AM Convo....

EOR1313: it'd have to be something like ah your devil start not being your mom
EOR1313: last night in my trailer
Lactaid Lady: i dont even know what you are talking about anymore
EOR1313: that's cos i'm tripping

Moments Later....

EOR1313: but i decided the opposite of omg (oh my god) is "ah your devil"
EOR1313: so maybe i'll start saying ayd instead of omg
Lactaid Lady: yeah
EOR1313: and then because the opposite of my dad is your mom
EOR1313: it triggered my need to tack on "last night in my trailer"
Lactaid Lady: its too late now to redeem yourself
EOR1313: i'm just attempting to demonstrate a logical progression of thoughts
Lactaid Lady: there is no hope

Yesterday it was decided that my RA staff will start a band called Emotional Round house.

I will play the cow bell and be lead singer.

Remember the days when I had a quote of the week each week? Yeah well that probably won't come back as much as I'd like it to, but every so often a phrase is said that stays with me. This week it came from a tallcott resident who was quoted before about the lack of donuts on campus and this week did it again.

I was coming back to my room and there was Matt outside talking to my neighbor Sandra. The first thing I hear him say is "I will wear pants." I wasted no time, putting it directly onto my wipe board. It has remained there the whole week, warm and safe in my heart, and it shall remain there for all eternity....

or until monday when the week begins yet again.

For whatever reason I got the Cheers theme song in my head.

Sometimes you wanna go
Where everybody knows your name
(bah bah bah)
And they're always glad you came...
(bah bah bah)
(awkward pause as I forget how the song goes)

Oh well.

I also feel I should mention that TJ IMed me recently saying he now knew which celebrity he wanted to fight; it was asked several months ago in his home. He said Kelly and Jack Osbourne. AND he wants to do it with his feet (possibly arms, I forget) tied up, because if it wasn't, lets be honest, it wouldnt be much of a fight.

Update away!

Red Lightning made it through radiator cap replacement surgery. She's already up and at 'em. Thanks for your prayers and inspirational letters!

Moving on...I think a better name for Kidnapping is people stealing. It has a better, more interesting ring to it. Plus not all kids are stolen. Sometimes women who are 30 are taken and I don't consider them to be kids. So just imagine turning on the news and hearing:
"A person was stolen last night outside of Joe's Coffee Hut."

Or perhaps you want to go people stealing so you say to your buddy/accomplice:
"Hey I feel like going people stealin' tonight, are you in?"

Or maybe you are Barbara Walters and are interviewing someone and you ask:
"What was it like to be stolen?"


It's just SO much better than boring old kidnapping.

You know whats fun?

When you are 2 miles away from college and suddenly your car overheats and when you pop the hood your cap to the radiator is gone...and then people stop to help and you drive the next two miles saying really nice things to your car as you go a top speed of 35 mph.

I hope Red Lightning* surives this ordeal.

Couple of things.

1) I went to Philly to see Merry at Villanova. Twas great. We discovered new vocab:

J-hole: which I called Merry, she asked me what it meant, and I laughted histerically because I had no idea. It was later suggested it was jelly filling.

Monk-hole: I dunno, same as j-hole, makes no sense.

Ex: shortened version of Excellent

opin: shortened version of opinion, most often used as "in my opin"

Abrase: shortened version of abrasive often used with "in my opin that's abrase"

Fizz Market: a place in which crazy things are sold at. Example: You can't sell that here, take that to the Fizz Market.

Lunch Box: A place in which to put something. "Why don't you stick that in your lunch box"

2) While at Villanova I watched several episodes of The Golden Girls. It is def better than I thought it was. And we made bets on what would happen. I bet a 2 minute massage that Bea Arthur's character Dorithy would go on a date and she TOTALLY did.

3) Pat and I were watching Extreme Makeover, which is one of the most depressing shows I've ever seen...Anyway this guy got plastic surgery and when he revealed his "new" self one of his friends said, "he has lips now!" Needless to say, Pat and I convulsed in laughter on the couch.

As I walked into my brothers room to return the checkered red and black dress he claimed was "moms" which one Merry McOlvin wore last night as her, Lisa, and I pretended we were middle aged women on the way to the church social, my brother Shawn and cousin Patrick were playing a video game. The conversation went as follows:

Colleen: I'm just returning your dress.
Pat: Did you iron it?
Colleen: No.
(she puts the dress into the closet)
Colleen: Are you guys playing that 007 game?
Shawn: Yeah
(all watch the television screen)
Colleen: I didn't know it's a two player.
(she looks carefully at the characters)
Colleen: (to Pat) Are you a woman?
Shawn: We both are. He's Mya and I'm Regina.

(she left the room with the determination to quote the hell out of that)

CURTAIN

I got some complaints about not updating. I won't say from who, but it was my mom. So let's fix that before she cuts me off...

Today I got my boss to laugh so hard she began to cry. In addition, she thinks she may have peed a little. How did I do this? Well let me tell you.

Now I am often fond of saying I will round house someone in the throat. I just think its funnier and more orginal than jokingly telling someone to shut up. Sometimes I even say it randomly and today we got into talking about it. There came a point when I visually demonstrated what I THOUGHT a round house was. I brought my arm up and circled it wide before punching. Meg and several others began to laugh histerically as I stood there perplexed. I didn't realize my puching skills were so funny. But no, they were laughing AT me.
Appearently a round house involves a kick. And it is very complex and difficult to be able to get someone in the throat since you are high kicking and turning at the same time. It's like a Mortal Combat move.

Now I know I learned a valuable lesson today but I still think my punch could be considered a round house. Plus it's easier to accomplish and more functional in society.

Ponder that my friends....ponder that.

Quote o' the day goes to a tallcott resident named Matt who has a fond place in my heart...here is another reason why he rocks:

"Did you guys realize there were no donuts all day on campus?!"

Now this is a man who knows his priorities.

I've been sneezing a lot. And since all my sneezes are crazy big it reminds me of my dear friend Liz's comment to me about the sound and power behind them. She said, "it sounds like your brain is trying to escape."

Perhaps it is. But I've always been good to it, so I dont see why it would want to leave me. But whatever, I'll be fine on my own. Though I'll probably not be able to function in society anymore, but I hear being a vegetable isn't so bad.

However, in the practical world, the sneezes are from one of two things.

1. My room is kinda dusty. And I dunno how to fix that beyond wiping it away with my hand or blowing it off my desk because I don't have the supplies to do anything else. Plus I'm lazy.

2. I gots me a cold. As if the cold that has been lingering around in my body for the past month isn't bad enough, now it invited its friend over to hang out, eat all my hot fries, and drink my Arizona Green Tea, and watch my DVDs while laying in their underwear on the couch.

So it appears I am doomed either way.
(sigh)

Today I had a marvelous idea. Everyone knows about those patches you can buy if you want to quit smoking, well what if you don't have any friends or you got ditched by your friends or they died...whichever.
You are lonely, no one to laugh with, no one to comment on your outfit, or watch tv with. Just head over to a convient store and buy yourself the Friendship patch. It fills you with good thoughts making you feel like you have a purpose to life.

I also think it should be made out of candy. Kinda like a piece of a fruit by the foot. Oh delicious friendship.

At this moment I think I understand the morbidly obesse people of the world and why they ask Maury for help.

I think a great new style would be getting the opposite of bangs. How do you do that? Well I'll tell you, just shave the very front of your head.

Ask your hairdresser about it!

Though some may argue if you don't have bangs then getting the opposite of that would be to GET bangs. But to all of those people....stop ruinging everything. Just shave the front of your head, ok? It'll be cool I swear. I saw Jennifer Aniston do it this weekend.

I finished my Orientation Leader application. For the last part of the question section it allows for addition comments. This is what I wrote:

For the additional comments I would just like to say…
I'm lactose intolerant and proud
Love ice tea and other assorted juices
Jealous of cats since they sleep 16 hours out of a day
Can quote SNL sketches as if it is my job
An active recycler
Am 1/64 Cherokee Indian
Own a blue members only jacket
Coldplay is the soundtrack of my soul
And sneakers are my foot ware of choice

I don't see how they could logically and rationally turn me down.

I'm proud of this joke I wrote for my TV show:

Bryan Singer director of the X-Men films is in talks to direct Fox's untitled drama pilot about a team of doctors who diagnose the toughest medical cases that other doctors have not been able to crack. Many of the plots will center around issues such as cancer, AIDS, and why Judith Light looks like a man.

ZING!
