"Hey mom do you know want to know what the word of the day is?"
"Okay darling!"
"Truculent!"
"Oh yeah that's definantly you!"
"Do you know what that word means?"
"Yeah....I'm not stupid!"
"Okay mom.... (Word of the Day for Saturday August 20, 2005)
truculent \TRUCK-yuh-luhnt\, adjective:
1. Fierce; savage; ferocious; barbarous.
2. Cruel; destructive; ruthless.
So am I truculan?"
"Oh, maybe not....."
**Strange sense of pride was experienced by, well, me here....but I also felt a little twinge...I realized that to solve little issues like that one will take a lot more work and confusion over the phone when I'm away. For a whole year I won't come down the stairs and see or hear my mom playing free cell in the mornings. For a whole year I won't be able to quietly come down and get my cup of coffee, already made, then retreat to my room till I wake up!! I will have to make it myself! Even though I never really appriciated it, I'm really gonna miss the routine in my house.**

Coulrophobiacs Beware!
Main Entry: coulrophobia
Definition: an extreme fear of clowns
Etymology: Greek kolon or kolobathristes
When I went to my GAP Orientation, they gave us all clown noses. They told us to use them to make people laugh....but honestly, if I'm sad and someone tried to cheer me up with a clown nose I'd probably deck them and then cry!
In light of getting the nose I decided to make use of it and take ridiculous pictures of people wearing it. I hope to get a whole pile of pictures of people wearing it! For now I just have Dm and myself!

Me after I'd just fallen over in laughter! I'm still able to keep a strait face though!!
Dom completly unable to keep a strait face!
Dom....a.k.a. Hommie
HOMMIE DON'T PLAY THAT!
23 Day...My life is a countdown...
While this picture is actully from easter, this is what I'm going to miss most when I go away!I'm going to miss my family's get togethers, their famous! nwell maybe not famous....more likely infamous!
This picture really describes them to a tee! My cousin Helen, and I in the front...the life of the party...at least we like to think we are! My uncle John doing something else with a look on his face like he just ate his children! My mom in the back, a little confused about what's going on, but enjoying herself anyways and my brother Alex in the back....sent there by the shorter people...he is a giant in our family!
Incedently, on the phone is my cousin Tritan, so I guess we can say he's in there too! Tristan is the cousin in England. I plan to see him when I go there in the fall (well 23 days now!). I probably won't be able to see him right away as I'll be shooed off to Reading pretty much as soon as I get off the plane, and form there, sent right to my placement, but on my first break I fully intend to go visit him! I hope to pursude Erica(shown here posing with "The Flash") to meet me in London a few times if possible! Obviously we will be doing some big "Hoo Har" for her birthday! Well I think that's near all I have to say ight now, and I think I intergrated the pictures of peeple I know quite nicely into the Blo, without making it seem like I was jsut trying to use my new found "picture putting in" skills!
GAP coming up!!
So my GAP year away is fast approaching and while I don't have much information about the place I'm going, I do know the girls I'm going with!!I also have their pictures, and even though they'll probably kill me for putting their pictures up I'm going to do it anyway!!
This is Katie from the island, who I've met already
This is Katie Ann from the other side of the country!!(NS)
And this is Michelle
Aren't they just the BEST!! Well I think so!
