That was eventful
hokay, so.
Mom, the kids and myself were just out for a lovely drive to Joylynn's place via downtown to see the lights. Unfortunately we never made it there. I guess the serpentine belt on the van slipped off or something anyway there were battery lights and the-engine-is-way-too-hot lights coming on and dinging and the power steering was gone and the kids were screaming and fireworks were shooting out of the back tires and hundreds of caribou were stampeding though waterfront and SWAT teams were coming down out of the trees ALL AROUND US!!!!! Well.... three out of seven ain't bad... that's nearly half. So, anyway, we pulled into a parking lot. Mom was pretty stressed so the kids were kinda freaked. Cameron was almost in tears because he thought we were never getting home, which ya know if we couldn't call anyone to come get us or come fix the van and our feet were cut off so we couldn't walk home and the river was, like, the ocean... he'd pretty much be right. So there we were, children of the streets, living day to day with little hope and even less Applebees 9oz. house sirloins with garlic mashed potatoes and seasonal vegetables. We had to survive somehow so we left mom to defend the van if needed with her karate chop action and we ventured off to forage for food. Which turned out to be easy enough since across the parking lot, through the bushes, across another parking lot, a couple sidewalks, a street and ANOTHER parking lot there was a seven eleven. Once we braved the crosswalk and stumbled into the store half dead from starvation I gave the kids six bucks to purchase the essentials: gummy candies, airheads, a slurpie and candy bars. On the way back to the van we decided that we should be children of the sidewalks since the streets were wet, dark and kind of full of traffic. No sooner had we piled back into the van and started into our bounteous feast when Joylynn came a-riding though the rain in her valiant black steed... I mean, truck. WE WERE SAVED!!! Alas... we had to leave Mom, but equipped with that lightning fast karate chop action she should be ok. Dad and Tom went to fix the van and rescue her and Joylynn headed back down after dropping us safe at home because her children wanted to see their Gramma.
Was that a harrowing tale or what? Wow, I tell you what wow.

Guess what guys
New Zealanders don't celebrate thanksgiving.
You may think this is terribly and utterly obvious.... aaand you'd be right. I'm so blonde sometimes, I was chatting with my gonna be mum-in-law about thanksgiving and what she and my gonna be dad-in-law will be doing and she said he didn't really care all that much and they'd probably sit around and eat cold cereal. I didn't really think about other countries not celebrating thanksgiving, you know why? Because Canada does.
And you know if Canada does something... pretty much everyone does.... except New Zealand.... they don't.

Giving of thanks is tomorrow
So... when does the happy come? I'm in a crazy weird :P blah :( mood tonight. I can't really describe it which is why I used faces. I want to eat but I'm not terribly hungry... I'm sort of depressed, frustrated and sad... I hate that I'm so emotional about everything and I wish that I knew how to better control my emotional responses to things..... grrrrr... I want to rest...

tetley's tea and ginger nuts!
Yuuuuuuuuuum! With milk and goodness, mmmm MMMM mmmm MMMM mmmm!
For those who don't know, ginger nuts are cookies. The ones I have are from the Australian pie shop in Burien, WA so they are shipped from Australia but the cookies are also made in New Zealand. I like them a lot :) The pies are alright, they're kinda like pasties but not as good. ;) (I'm gonna get yelled at for that comment, hehehe) They're sort of like pot pies without the veggies... unless you order them with veggies, but even then they aren't the same as pot pies... quite different actually. I suppose you all will have to try them for yourselves. I like them alright.
Next on the "exotic" foods agenda is to introduce Logan (and Brandon and Lindsey) to the wondrous world of PASTIES!!!! YAAAAAAAAAAY PASTIES!!! Yum yum yum! Gotta love the fillins! None of that silly gravy, pffft. (hehehe, I'm gonna get yelled at more for calling the great and glorious gravy silly)

na na yummy... amen Wyatt, amen
That is how Wyatt sings "Jesus loves me" but not the "normal" way (you know, Jesus loves me this I know.. etc). Oh no, not MY nephew :D He just sings "na na yummy, na na yummy, na na yummy...." I got to spend the night at with the Joylynn, Wyatt and Genevieve Reardons last night. Fun times, I got my homework done mostly but was, unfortunately, about fifteen minutes late. :P Now I'm not working cause I'm switching shifts with a coworker.
And Lauren Hemenway says I'm stupid :P I say she has green hair.
Then we both decided we'd lied so I'm not stupid and she doesn't have green hair.... but... if that's the case... what color IS that??????

Alyssas are emotional
Military life can be crap. Being engaged to military life can be crap too.
Crying on the bus is not my favorite... For that matter neither is crying in the library or at the bus stop, I think in general sad crying is not my favorite.
Ruben sandwiches are close to my favorite.

Why now?
the printer is running out of black ink, that sucks. I'm trying to finish some graphic design homework and it looks like crap. I suppose I could get everything else ready but the copies I'm trying to finish and get up in a few hours and go to the 24 hour Kinkos.
How crappy would the swing shift at Kinkos be? I think mischeif and mayhem would ensure were I to be employed at such an establishment and working at ridiculous hours of the night and morning when my being there would only be appreciated by the extremely lonely and/or the procrastinating graphic design student.
