2011 Shout outs. :)

The shout out post is my favorite one of the whole year. It is my chance to tell all of you how much I love you. :D I hope everyone like it, and if you don't, go away! :)

BEEF

Beef, what to say about you? You are the bread to my butter. You are the glue that holds me together most days. Whatever would I do without our consistently 30 minute long phone calls? You are the best friend a girl could ever ask for. You are impossibly hilarious and probably one of the nicest people I have ever met. You and me, we're going to be friends forever. Thanks for always being the one I can call for any reason whatsoever. You are "top of the line beef" for sure. :) I love you, bitch.

CHELSEA [C-WIKKA WIKKA]

Roommate soul-mates? Yes please. You have been the worlds greatest friend this year. You have saved me from countless breakdowns. I love our Applebees dates and our movie nights. Living with you is about to be a blast. We have had so many awesome memories in just one year. [ahem..cookie..] I cannot wait til august. Oh, the hilarity that will ensue!! You are a great girl to have around. Dont you forget that. :)

KYLEE

Our car sing-a-longs are the bestest! You were the best finite buddy ever. [too bad that didn't work out as well as we'd hoped. well. not for me anyway. :p] I'm glad we're friends. You're quite funny, and I enjoy laughing with you [and at you... :)]. Can we please hang out more? Thanks.

ANGELA

One word. HOCKEY. You are the only person around this town that understands that part of me. You and I will be friends forever based on this fact alone. That, and the fact that you're awesome. duh. Seriously though, you are fantastic. Hanging out with you is quickly becoming one of my more favorite things to do. Love you!

JORY

J-Rad. Ha. You crack me up, kid. It took all that was in me not to put the "squirrel face" picture up here, but on the off chance that you'll ever see this, I decided to be nice to you. Anyways.. You're a pretty fun guy. You are that person that tells me exactly what I don't want to hear, and I actually like that about you. You listened to me ramble about everything nobody cares about and you did it for a whole week. Kudos to you for that, bud. But really, its nice to have you around. Thanks for being awesome.


PWSSSSSSSSHHHHHH
Quit eating indian food without me, and we'll get along just fine. Bahahaha! You are a great person and I like having you as a friend. Come July, we're about to hang out all the time. I hope C-Wikka is okay with this. If not, meh. She be fine. :)

CHRISTIANA

F-Moneyyyyy! What to say about you? Thanks for eating nasty things and allowing me to laugh at your expense. You da best. :) haha. No no, You really are a great little weasel. And those dance skills? Outta this world! As weird as this may sound to you, you are like the little sister my mother never gave me. You are so fun. :D

LAELAH

Hey Munchkin! Look at how cute you are! Ugh! It just makes me smile to look at that face. Lets face it, you're a baby. You're never going to read this. But I love you! I love you a whole bunch! I cant wait to babysit you in a few weeks! I'm going to be the best aunt you'll ever have! I love you, Munchkin!!!

SEAN

You're on here because I feel like publicly announcing this to the world. Look at you. You have grown up so much in just a short time. You are a great daddy. That little girl is going to grow up to adore you, so you know. Keep it up. Oh, and I cannot wait til Flogging Molly. I feel like going to a concert with my big brother is going to be the best time ever!

back to those traditional new years posts.. 23 days late..

Its 23 days into 2011 and I have yet to do the "traditional" new years posts. So, that's what this next bunch of postings are going to be devoted to. :) First things first.

new year, new strategy.

Well, its 20 days into 2011, and I haven't done any of my traditional "new year" posts. Those are coming, I promise. This post is not one of those, however.

Listen, Chelsea, you want to act like a child? You want to play games? Fine. Last semester I did not cave to your childish and downright idiotic antics, but if this is how you want to go about things, so be it. You want to take my markers and eat my food? You go right ahead. I've got some things up my sleeve as well. You want a war, brace yourself. I do not play nicely with bullies. I'm not saying I'm going to harm you or your things. That would be a threat, which is illegal. I don't really think you're at all worth the jail time. But if you want to act like a child, I can be just as childish. You want to ignore me when I speak to you? Kay. You want to take my [clean] dishes out of the dishwasher and then make them dirty once more? Okay fine. Just saying, I can play your game too. And I intend to if you keep this 5 year old bullshit up. You're nothing but an immature, childish, bully. You will have to live with that. You will have to live with the choices you have made, just as I will have to live with mine. The difference? I can sleep knowing that I did not resort to such stupid lows as you have. I can sleep knowing that I was the mature one. But as I said, that can all go out the window if you keep acting this way. Kisses! :)

take just a second...

...and look at how cute she is!
Laelah Renae, 6 months.
I love her!

DAMN IT ALL TO HELL AND BACK. THIS BLOWS.

December 25th. :D

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Privatized Posting:

Because my roommate reads everything I post, and then insults me and throws said posts in my face via cowardice text messages, I have made my blog private. If you received an email, congratulations, you have access. Sorry you have to log in to read it, I think that's stupid, but I had to make this private for my own sanity. :]

I love you all. :D

ugh.

i'm never one to be an emotional wreck, but i have officially been beaten down enough to where the only thing i want to do is cry. i have finals to worry about, i do not need this. just let me move out and be done with it. for the love of all that is holy, just let me leave.

December 9th.

I would just like to take the time to repeat a post:

A tribute to an incredible man.. He was a man among men, a man who stood above the rest. He was a loving, caring, brilliant, and funny man. He always knew what to say to make any situation better, and he knew what to say to get a little girl to eat her green beans. He was a husband, a father, a brother, and an uncle. But perhaps what is most important to me, he was a grandpa. He was my grandpa. I will always remember him as a very witty and loving person who told the most interesting stories. I will also remember those moments when I heard grandma yell "Jack!" to grandpa, who was asleep and snoring on the couch. (there were a lot of these moments.. ) I'll always remember the letter he wrote me just before I went off to college. He told me to stay away from people lathered in oil and to never forget "liquor before beer.." He ended this letter by telling me that he was proud of me and the young woman I was growing up to be. Here's the thing you didn't know, grandpa.. I am far more proud of you than you ever could be of me. You were a great husband, and a great father and grandfather. You were a rock for all of us. You demonstrated great strength all the way to the end. You faced more challenges in a short amount of time than most men face in a lifetime, and yet you would always smile and say "Hi Dani, how are you sweetie?" every time you saw me. Your body was weak at the end, but you were still unbelievably strong. For that, you are my hero. I only hope to be as great a person as you were. Even though we all miss you terribly, we know that you are staring down at us probably smiling in your subtle way. We all know that you're better this way. You're healthy and happy now. We accept that and are happy for it. But you will always be missed. You will always be on our minds and in our hearts. We love you grandpa. I love you. please hear this and know that. Love always, Dani and Your Family

**this was a tribute i posted exactly one year ago, and let me just say that he is missed and loved so much. i just want to take the time to say, again, that my grandpa was a wonderful man. a great husband, son, brother, uncle, father, and especially to me, grandfather. its still really strange to think that he isn't here anymore. but, as corny as it may sound, i know parts of him are still here. and that's what makes me smile. i see him when i look at my brother when he wears glasses. i see him when my mom says something funny. i miss him, and i love him, and i wont ever forget how important he was to me. love you grandpa. we all miss you.**

The Wicked Witch at Last is Dead!

"As Mayor of the Munchkin City in the county of the Land of Oz, I welcome most regally."
"But we've got to verify it legally"
"To see"
"To see.."
"If she"
"If she.."
"Is morally, ethically.."
"Spiritually, Physically.."
"Positively, Absolutely.."
"Undeniably, and Reliably"
"DEAD!"

"As Coroner, I must affirm, I've thoroughly examined her. And She's not only merely dead, she's really most sincerely dead!"

one more thing..

I MISS MY BEEF SOMETHIN AWFUL!
