about me

Practically imperfect in every way. Start with a lot of silliness. Mix in some insecurities and a handful of awkwardness. Add a pound of naivety, innocence, and child-like wonderings. Blend well. Half-bake and top off with a sprinkle of imagination and dollop of dreams. It’s the recipe for me!

  • "Moral of the story: Do not look at the gap. The gap is the mind-killer. Remember how Wile E. Coyote never fell down until he saw the chasm? It’s just like that." --Taylor "Tei" Lindstrom, Rogue Ink

dumbass quote

  • "I think we have come to find out that the Education system, run by Liberal Hippies that really couldn't find any other job that allowed them so much time off, the ability to do drugs, and to spout their rhetoric is alive and well. It is teaching out kids things like 'Abortion is Good,' 'Government is Bad.' We have educators that, for the most part, don't teach to the subject, they teach to their beliefs. It is really sad, and even sadder when you see highly intelligent children buying into it." --Kelli

Updates During My Free Time!

February 10, 2005

It’s been a while since I’ve updated my blog, but with everything else going on, I haven’t been at the computer very much this week. I just happen to have some time today because I had to drive 50 minutes out of my way to deliver tickets for my show to my mom before class. I missed my first class, and my second doesn’t start until 12:30. I’ve broken up this entry into sections for ease of reading because it’s so darn long. You’re welcome.

Movie Day
Last week, I took the boys to see Aliens of the Deep. Not only was it an IMAX experience, but it was an IMAX 3-D experience. Woohoo! The boys wanted more creatures and less talking. We all enjoyed it though.

Vaginas
I learned that the word vagina causes quite a stir among women. It should come as no surprise to me considering it’s one of the subjects we discuss in the show. To promote the show, the producer wanted us to sell chocolate vaginas and lip balms called Pussy Pucker Pots. After the first week, we were asked to take down our tables because many women were complaining about our promotion. We were also forbidden from listing the school’s name on our t-shirts because some higher-up disliked the phrase “What would your vagina say?” that was written on the back.

I’m somewhat undecided about my feelings on this controversy. On one hand, I’m one of those women who is uncomfortable talking about sex and all its related parts in normal conversation. Promoting the show the way we are has been a bit difficult for me. I don’t really want to wear a t-shirt with the word vagina on it. I don’t want to sell chocolate vaginas or Pussy Pucker Pots. On the other hand, we are promoting a show called “The Vagina Monologues.” It’s pretty hard to promote a show when you’re not allowed to say the name. And what word would women prefer we use if they are so offended by the word vagina? We have a whole skit devoted to what we call it.

Blood Drive
I tried to give blood yesterday. Yes, I know it was stupid to try to squeeze the blood drive into my already hectic schedule this week, but I thought I could do it. What I completely forgot was the fact that I’m trying to get pregnant, which makes it unsafe for me to give blood. I don’t know why I didn’t think about that before. Fortunately, I remembered when I was filling out my form. I got to keep all my blood, and this month, we’re getting serious about getting pregnant. But more on that later.

Volunteering
Last November, my computer was hacked by a guy who has a grudge against me because of my volunteer job. I took steps to safeguard my computer against this sort of thing happening again. On Sunday night, I had trouble with one of my computers connecting to my network. I disabled the firewall for 30 minutes while I tried to resolve the problem. The same little jerk took that opportunity to get into my computer again. This time, he got access to my volunteer account and caused a lot of problems for everyone. It doesn’t look like we’re going to be unable to undo what was done. Needless to say, I feel horrible about the whole thing. I have a few commitments to projects that I need to finish up in the next few weeks, but I’m seriously considering leaving my job once I’m finished with everything. My thinking is this. If my presence is causing problems for this group, which I obviously care about or I wouldn’t be volunteering, then my presence is doing more harm than good. Or at the very best, all the good I contribute is being undone by the bad. Part of me is being stubborn. I think this guy would be happy to know I left because of something he did, and I don’t want to give him that satisfaction. Part of me is being selfish. I like what I do, and I don’t want to leave. I’m really too busy this week to give much thought to this problem right now though.

It’s the spark of an idea that hits me unexpectedly. It’s the silly wonderings I have after a whirlwind of thoughts. It’s about creativity, inspiration, and imagination. But sometimes, it’s just about eating noodles.
