Roger is an excellent name for a plant. It just rolls off the tongue...."Good morning, Roger! How are you this morning, Roger? My, aren't you looking green and lovely today, Roger!" And when your plant dies (as mine always do- what can I say, I just have a way with foliage), you can just blame it on the name. "Well, Roger realized that his name was, in fact, Roger, and it pushed him over the edge. Poor Roger committed plant suicide. He just couldn't face the reality of his pathetic existence." Plants appreciate eulogies, by the way. So, when your plant passes, be sure to give him (or her) a proper eulogy. It just wouldn't be right if you didn't. It's not like he could give it himself. I mean...you can't give a eulogy if you're dead. Only receive them. It's a shame, really.

You should name it either Snookums or CuppyCake, after this song! teehee... Well guys, i guess this is my last post here til i go home... I'm excited! wooooooooo! Don't be too heartbroken by the lack of posts during spring break. :*(

guys, what should i name my new plant!?!

Kairsie... the colors.... WHY? can't you just be satisfied with plain old READABLE type? we dont need a "glow" on all your blogs, yknow ;) . Quality over Quantity, my dear. (in this case, quantity referring to the number of psycho effects to your text...) A different color once in a while, sure, that's fine. But GLOWING? it's just plain annoying to read!!! oh well, rant off.

since some of you want to see where that song came from, you can visit it HERE

btw, check my site for some pretty pictures!!! tee hee hee...

No..... but I always wanted to be like Sabrina or Samantha, either twitch my nose or point my finger and *poof* everything is done. I do however think snow should be a different color every time it falls.

did you ever wish your chocolate cake had a remote control?

Ruthie! That's what you need to do for your birthday, you need to have a little girl party. The kind you had when you were 7. And someone needs to buy you a Barbie (as much as i HATE barbie) ......When is your birthday anyways?

jesse, i love this song! :) in fact, i went back in a couple times just to hear it again! i want someone to sing to me that i'm their "cup-y-cake gumdrop, sniggums (whatever she says there)..." lol

By the way, kristen, you did spell Cutco right ;) . But I don't think the knife would help you unless you locked your alien in the pantry first. I have another suggestion, but I'll refrain from posting it for fear of ruining the movie for someone. Never mind, I'll ruin it anyway: SOILENT GREEN IS PEOPLE!!! oh wait, wrong movie... oh well.

I don't know why the site wasn't working correctly...

and Kairsie: my song was better than yours anyway!



So it's back again ;) .

No you see that was *NOT* the song I picked. Jesse changed my code. I had POD's boom which i will now post again!

Dude, what's up? I can't get to http://swyftx2.blogspot.com/ Maybe that means I should go do laundry. I hate when that happens. :)
BTW- Fun song, Kairsie! Where ever did you find it?

messin around a bit... fun fun!

SCORE! the music site is back on so my music on my blog works again, yea! SO now for your listening pleasure........:)

To the whole freedom fries thing, America is a freakin moron. To Ruthie, I think you need to go to Walmart or Toys-R-Us or something and just act up till you get kicked out. Actually I think you should skateboard in a mall till you get kicked out, but I don't know if you have enough time to learn to skateboard :)

So about the whole French thing... (changing things like French Fries to "Freedom" Fries). I'm all about some "Freedom" kissing to celebrate. hehe. Just kidding. But if you think about, it's even more retarded than it seems on the surface (doesn't seem possible, given how retarded it first appears). In WWII, when we changed things like sauerkraut to "liberty cabbage," it almost made sense. Germany was "the enemy." (In hindsight, those actions, too, look retarded.) But when you look at this, France is our ally, in NATO with us, blah blah blah. We're not going to war with France, so why should we rename their products? Freakin' idiots in Congress. My goodness.

ok, so most of you know of my tradition: every birthday of my adult life i do something crazy, silly, off the wall... to stay young at heart! :) i'm open to suggestions for this year.

Amanda, England says hi back and that it misses you as well!! and yes, we must definately hang out when i get back, i look forward to it! :)

Kristen, yay welcome, and yes i quite remember the days of Lottie and its chicken, chicken, chicken, and cod (cod strips, cod nuggets, grilled cod, fried cod and so on)....hehe it is funny to be reminded of it!

Shauna-
I just ventured a little trip to your blog and decided that you are way too much fun for me not to hang out with more often (when you come home, of course)! You crack me up! Tell England I said hi and I miss it.

Ok. Here's the deleted post cliff notes:
Jeff- Feel free to pick on me for posting at 9am and 2 in the afternoon. Just remember that SOME people (some being me) have to be at work BEFORE 10 am, so SOME people have to go to bed way freakin' disgustingly early in order to wake up before the stinkin' crack of dawn. Now, I realize that you may be waking up at various stages of the night and early morning recently to take care of that adorable little girl of yours, but also remember that I have no beautiful baby girl to greet me at 5stinkin30 am. :) Besides, my 9am post was celebrating the fact that it was Saturday and that I found it quite wonderful to have slept in after a thoroughly enjoyable late night. Have I ever told you my argument for becoming a seventh-day adventist? You should ask me sometime.

On another not-so-random note: Alysen is a night person...er...cat. She is pounding through the house, attacking everything right now. This is her nightly routine. She's insane, which is why I love her. I'm insane, which is why people love me. :) **Sings song from Peter Pan, "I won't grow up, I won't grow up...."**

As for now, it's too late for me to be up. I need to go to bed. I'm going to kick myself in the morning. Hm...kick myself....don't I know someone else who does that? :)

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Public announcement: DO NOT forget that you are typing in blogger and not MS Word! Unlike Word, when you hit control-z in blogger, it does not undo the last thing that you did. Instead, IT DELETES YOUR ENTIRE POST THAT YOU JUST SPENT 10 MINUTES RANTING AND RAVING ON!!! Grrr.

What in the world is COD? And yes I do have way to much time on my hands. Boycott claire's! they're dumb!

Yesterday I learned that it takes 375 licks to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop :)

the only one i have seen out of them is the ring and i really liked it a lot!! very creative i thought, and yes film like other art was made to be thought about and interacted with!!

Speaking of chicken....
I foolishly made the assumption this morning that "it is day." I was corrected by my friend Brie. In fact, the truth is that "it is chicken."

Three movies that I've seen recently and want to know who else has seen it, and your opinions:

1. Signs
2. Catch Me If You Can
3. The Ring

I rate them in the above order. Movies are so much different when you watch them actively and actually think about them as you watch them!

now THIS is the stuff i expected to show up here. the random=good blog is finally fulfilling its purpose! Yes Shauna, you just might be a night-person. ;) did i mention the whole "falling asleep at 1:10am at a Rave" thing? Yeah, i'm awesome, you know it! It was the best nap of my life! I love falling asleep with kickin music rumbling me to sleep...

Oh, Jeff: "3:20am - well, don't do anything I wouldn't do!"
As if that were a restriction? Is there anything you wouldn't do at 3:20 am??

swahili lesson:
chicken = kuku
i want a burger = nina taca baga
where's the toilet? = wapi cho (rhymes with sloppy joe)
good night = lala salama

by the way, shauna, you rock thanks for the postcard.

oh... and uhhhh 3:20am - well, don't do anything I wouldn't do!

night person definately... yall know it. The craziest/funnest experiences of my life have always been after midnight.

oh...

and yall are duffusses - writing your blogs at like 9 in the morning and 2 in the afternoon.

and since random=good and its 12:40 am did you know that chiken spelled backwards is nekihc! cool huh!

hmmm well it is 3:20am my time here in England and i have just gotten back from spending the last 4 and half hours out dancing, do i get to be a night person, even though i have to get up at like 8:45am for class? please say yes!?! :)

no, no, no. 7pm is just the start of it.

oh, and "amanda":

You don't really think that having energy at 7pm makes you like a night person, do you? "night people" get their energy between 11pm and 1am, not 7pm. Silly sister.... heh heh heh.

*Note: This isn't just my blog, it's your blog too! I just play the role of editor and censorship chairperson.*

As for me, I've realized I'm DEFINITELY a morning person, and I love it. Just another thing to set me apart from my peers! I can stay up late for special occasions (such as the new years party and such) but I can't do it very often. Sometimes I get grumpy and whiney, sometimes a *little* too hyper and mucho annoying. I love being able to say that my bed time is 9pm, though it's nearly impossible to get to bed that early. But it IS my goal. It helps that I can sleep through almost anything. Often there is yelling and screaming from 10pm to 1am across the hall or in my suitemates' room; I can sleep through it. I even fell asleep at the rave I went to last week! Now THAT was an awesome experience! I want to sleep at raves more often. My theory is that I've had lots of practice with falling asleep with the TV on and such. It's one of my talents, eh? The only thing I can't fall asleep to is the sound of balls bouncing. This drives me utterly nuts, especially since people in my suitemates' room love to bounce basketballs and LaCrosse balls at like 12 midnight. GRRR... oh well.

In conclusion:
Taj = morning person
