Confirmation, Sort of

My roommate is NOT gay. I don't think I would have married him if I thought he was, but we do argue over who is the better organizer, gift wrapper, cleaner, decorator, etc., so sometimes I wondered if he was too in touch with his feminine side. Well, my questions have been answered! He definitely prefers women.

What the hell am I talking about??

Well, we went to a watch party to watch KSU beat the Baylor Bears. It was a close game, and after the game, my roommate went to high five this other guy, but instead, the guy gave my roommate a very awkward hug. Not the manly football hug, it was the I want to hold you type hug. My roommate was flabbergasted and did not hug back, he merely patted the guy on the side of the arm.

OMG.....a huge revelation just appeared! The first time I said the three special words (I love you) to my roommate, he did not repeat them back, nor did he hug or kiss me, he just patted me on the shoulder. It was awful. Can't believe I stuck around after that humiliation.

Anyway.....so I guess I may not have confirmation after all......

Cougar???

A retard saw my sweater today and told me I looked cute in my Cougar sweater.




HMM...you mean Wildcat?!!?? The person tried to schmooze me/cover up their idiotness by saying that I look good in purple. Tell me something I don't already know.

Fishing

Jordy learned how to fish....





Pray for us that our baby doesn't murder our fish. I really don't want to have to flush Quattro and get a Cinco. However, to be fair, Willie unintentionally murdered one of our first fishies. How do I know it was unintentional? Because he didn't eat the fish, he just accidentally knocked the bowl off of the counter.

Just call me Dixie!

This is a Facebook application grading my parents on naming me -

Shea's parents get an A- for originality.
Ranking:
'Shea' was the 964th most popular girl's name in her birth year.
Rarity:
20% of girls had rarer names that year. (Grade: A-)
Peak year:
'Shea' peaked in popularity in 2005.
Current rank:
'Shea' is currently the 962nd most popular girl's name.
Current name:
Shea's parents might name her 'Dixie' today (current #964). HA! HA!!


I can't imagine naming anything other than an animal Dixie. By the way, feel free to use my ever original name. I have just been dying for someone to use it. Almost any name I pretend to name my unmade, unborn child, I make sure it goes with Shea just in case I have to snatch it up......

Rock Out

My friend, K, had a b-day party last weekend for herself (love it when people do that, throw your OWN party if you want one!!) and it was a Wii party. I have never played a Wii but have been interested in trying one out. So we played Rock Band.

Game 1 - Me on drums. Not even one drink in me yet and I really stink at the drums. After the game I say to myself that this is not near as much fun as I thought it would be.

Game 2 - Me on Guitar. One drink down. Shit. I suck at this too. Guess I am not meant to play guitar either.

Drinking break.

Game 3 - Not counting drinks anymore......I am singing, I am Taylor Swift, it is magical and fun!!! P.S. I think I am really good at this point...scary!


Game 4 - Me on Bass again. I learn there is an EASY mode. You just hold down one button and strum on the beat. I AM HOOKED. THIS IS CAKE!!



Game 21, 25, 28+++++, I feel I am in true Rock Band mode, jam session until 4 a.m.!

I was wondering, does Rock Band come with a warning label that this game may cause severe overindulging of adult beverages????



P.S. If you are wondering why I had to stand on the couch it was because I would be attacked by the sharks if I got on the carpet (you've played that game, right? Maybe when you were 3 or 4....)

Twinkies with many rolls!

My absolute favorite pic of the Twinkies!! I babysat them a few weekends when they were babies. I would stroll them around my house in this double stroller and put them to sleep. So precious!!



P.S. If you are wondering, the blue thing is a towel I had to put behind princess b/c she didn't like the fabric of the stroller on her head. Or at least that is what I told myself b/c she was happy with the towel there and mad when it wasn't!! I wasn't picking favorites, the other Twinkie was not so much of a princess.....

Blast from the Past

I didn't really have much entertaining news to report, so I thought I would share a funny/cute/proof I needed braces/hello kitty/wild hair little girl photo with you. I really love this picture because I look happy.



Oh, and yes, I did grow up in a farming community but I believe this was the only time I was next to a combine in all of my years in P-town.

Pants on the Ground

Heard about this on the news this morning - amazing this was on the NEWS considering there was just a massive earthquake in Haiti, however, shame on me b/c I am writing about this and not the earthquake.....

Anyway, you must go watch this you tube video of this Army General, singing a song he wrote, called "Pants on the Ground". He is obviously tired of young men looking like fools walking around with their pants sagging. Pretty cute!

Google game

So I heard this on the radio on the way to work this morning. Go to google and type in how to and then all of these how to questions will automatically pop up. Supposedly google keeps track of what you search and then these how to's automatically generate for you in order for google to then direct advertising at you.

Here is what mine came up with:
1. How to change the orientation of video off of camera (I acutally searched for this)
2. how to tie a tie (I have no idea why I would care about this, my roommate has only worn a tie about 4 times in our many years together and he seems to know what he is doing).
3. how to kiss (I feel like I am doing pretty good at this one, but may check this out to keep things interesting! ha!)
4. How to lose weight fast (again, might be interested in the info, but really, you just have to eat less and move more people)
5. How to solve a rubix cube (I will never have the patience for this even if I was told how to)

I have no idea how these how to's generated for me since I really only searched one of these how to's, but it was entertaining for a few minutes at least!

Under pressure

Long time no blog and I have lots of pressure to produce something good as my sister in law informed me she relies on me for entertainment (only during work hours, her evening life is waaaaay more exciting than mine). I was visiting the twinkies last week and they made me laugh pretty good.

I am a freak sometimes about organizing. Well, the twinkies play room was unorganized and I wanted to help them get all of their toys in order. (I know, what a fun Aunt I am). Anyway, they did really well, and we took them to McDonalds for lunch afterwords. We were piling in Uncle Carrots car and I am climbing to the third row in the Tahoe. Mickey said - Does you butt fit in this car? Where did he get this?? Well, last time I had them at my house, I was trying to squeeze in between their car seats in the backseat of my car and NO!, my butt didn't fit! Ha. They probably refer to me as Big Ass Aunt Red.

So, like I said, they did really good organizing one day and the next day I was taking them home and told them I needed to get their clothes organized to get them packed. They both got terrified looks on their faces and said "Not organizing again!!" I started laughing and said it was just packing, not organizing. Guess they are forever scarred with that word!!

Here are some silly pics of us:




this is how exciting the matriarch of our family, Dharma was during our Xmas celebration. She must have been out partying the night before b/c she did not bat an eye during the commotion.


Yup - she dressed herself. As if the stripes and plaid weren't enough, she had to add her sunglasses. Also notice her purse. She has it stuffed full of "essentials" including her lip gloss, tissues, gloves, and her brother's sunglasses that she so kindly carries for him.
