We run a little hot.

Hey Am,

I hope you’re not as boring in real life when people ask you how your trip was. I guess we’ll see this weekend, but a little excitement would go a long way. I’m glad you enjoyed the Grand Canyon – what do you mean you want to live there? Like in the Canyon (bc I would support that)? Or in the general Arizona area. Bc I think the southwest is a really beautiful area although I can’t say I’ve been to Arizona. I want to go, but like I’ve said before - thats a “wholesome family trip” for the future. But Vegas needs to be done before any kiddies and w/o the parentals.

And I fully support the all-you-can-eat-buffets. And I definitely don’t even understand how you lost 6 pounds since you’ve been back. That’s a LOT. What's your secret?? I can’t lose six pounds even if I tried. Although I’m so anti not eating.

Where did you go in California? I’m excited to see your pictures, I’m sure you look just fine. I’m very happy you’re coming! Even though it’s actually to see your OTHER friend and I just happen to be a side stop, but I guess I’ll take what I can get since you clearly can’t make a trip out here simply for MY benefit. It’s okay, I realized a while ago I’m way down on your list even though you’re like first on mine. Unrequited love. Not bitter. At all. Obvi.

I can’t make up my mind about the werewolves. I mean, in the book I LOVE the werewolves (team jacob!) just as much as the vamps bc that’s just hot. And Native American guys? Shit, FUCKING hot (I think it has to do with the fact that shirtless tan people > pale cold people AND the fact that I've always loved wolves as kid and decided I needed to get a Siberian Husky when I got older bc that's as close as I'm going to get). But in real life, sometimes I see them and I’m like meh. Like in the links you sent… meh - they look a little too Mexican. Maybe if you had actually found a descent looking picture like say perhaps this one:

Now see, this is something I can actually work with. Umm, the one all the way on the left is alright. The front & center one is okay. The two on the right are a little small. I still think Jacob (with short hair) is hotter. But maybe they'll look better in the movie.

I hope your singing goes well. I’m sure it sounds beautiful and when will you be sharing this wonderful song?

The “opening line” at Confession, huh? Yeah there’s a standard way to do it. You go in there make a sign of the cross and say, “Bless me, Father, for I have sinned. It’s been (amount of time) since my last Confession.” And then you just sort of tell him everything. When you’re done you say something like, "I am sorry for these and all the sins of my life." That’s how he knows you’re done. Then the priest might talk to you about what you said, like he might give you advice on how to try to avoid repeating the sins you’ve committed. Then he assigns you a penance and then you say the Act of Contrition, “O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended you and I detest all my sins because I dread the loss of heaven and the pains of hell, but most of all because I have offended you, my God, who are all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve with the help of your grace, to confess my sins, to do penance and to amend my life. Amen.” And then (this is the big part), the priest gives you absolution. I had to Google it bc I don't actually know what he says. All I know is the last line which is the important one, but Google says it goes something like: “God the Father of mercies, through the death and resurrection of His Son, has reconciled the world to Himself and sent the Holy Spirit among us for the forgiveness of sins; through the ministry of the Church may God give you pardon and peace, and I absolve you from your sins in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.” The end.

I’m glad you like the name Catherine. I like it too, I don’t know about the name Siena.

I looked into every vampire book/series I could find after I read Twilight. But they all just sound so… cheesy. I have heard of the House of Night series, but I’m too lazy to read it. It has something to do with a girl having to become a vamp right? Like she goes to a school? I remember looking at them at the Barnes & Noble around here. Sounds a lot like Harry Potter to me except they’re witches/warlocks. I feel like… I might read it someday, but I’m not in a hurry.

You moving to the city would be amazing. I’m surprised your parents would let you, but I support it! Even though you’d probably ignore me. Sigh.

Cereal is awesome. And by cereal I mean sugary cereals, mostly cocoa puffs. I love it. I also love donuts. My favorite is the vanilla frosting at Dunkin Donuts and the glazed at Krispy Kreme. YUM. I’m hungry just thinking about it. This is why I'm fat. Oh, have you seen that website?
This is why you're fat. It's great... and sad, lol.

On Sunday, I think I’m going to do the
March for Babies. Would you like to come? Let me rephrase that – could you come? Bc I realize hanging out more than one day in a row is scandalous but you know, it’s out there for your consideration.

I took a two hour nap yesterday evening after work. It was glorious.

Did I tell you that I decided to go to a bhangra dance class? Yeah, I get these urges once in a while to do something outside of my comfort zone and more adventurous. So on Monday I decided to look up some bhangra classes in the area and then I went on Tuesday. It was a lot of fun, good workout. And as for the ‘more adventurous’ part, I decided it would be fun to go white water rafting this summer. Care to join? Oh, we should go to Six Flags too. I’d like to actually DO things this summer. We’ll see how that pans out. What did you want to do this Saturday, btw? You should probably get a subway day pass.

I’m claiming Zac Efron (I know, I know. I caved. I’ve been on Zefron overload lately with his new movie coming out. He’s everywhere and he’s grown on me), James Marsden, Antonio Banderas, Orlando Bloom, Johnny Depp, Captain Jack Sparrow, Patrick Dempsey, Denzel Washington, Eric Bana, Ewan McGregor, Colin Farrell, Colin Firth, and Hayden Christensen. Also, I heart young Tom Cruise. But he’s like a quack now with his Scientology shit. But he was just so cute. Eh.

Yeah it’s a lot. That’s what happens when you don’t blog for weeks in a row. I have to make a list of everyone so I can remember. If only you blogged more often...

I want to go back to ND for a game this year. Esp since I didn’t go last year. Hm, yes. We’ll see, I just had the idea today so it’s still in the planning stages, but I would love to go. Oh, ND football.

I'm going out for drinks after work with a couple of people which is nice. We've been going out for 2 hour lunches everyday this week. Fantastic and so much better than being in the office. It's sooooo beautiful out today and I think it supposed to stay this way through the weekend. I really hope so bc it's been raining way too much.

So this has been REALLy long. I'll stop now and leave some for next time. Adieu.
