Well I think I had a first last night. I had a dream that made me laugh so hard I woke myself up. That's not normal for me, does that happen to other people? (No I don't really remember the dream, just something about watching a play and then needing to leave in the middle of the play but I had to go through the stage and kept getting in the way of the actors but eventually the situation got so absurd that I just started laughing) Is it possible to be so tired while you're sleeping that you laugh hysterically at your dreams for no good reason? Of course the downside is that I woke up laughing at about 4 AM and had a hard time getting any more sleep after that.

TeamViewer is such a blessing. I reeaallyy did not want to make a 20 minute trip to and from my grandmothers house to work on her PC. Now I can do it from home while blasting some Yes! :cool: (I really should stop listening to them so much.)

Hopefully everyone is having a nice weekend!
Well I had to troubleshoot my mom's computer over Skype yesterday. She's probably about average in her computer skills (i.e. knows how to do basic tasks with certain programs using their default settings, but has no clue what to do when something changes or messes up), but it still seems like she knows nothing at times.

As a serious answer to your question Cat, yes, I'm meeting up with some friends.

And they're a really special group of people and I think I know them pretty well, but at the same time, it's going to be like meeting them for the first time, you know?

So there's all this teenage nervousness and feelings such as, "Will I say the right things? Will I fit in? Will they approve of what I'm wearing? (Is a certain member of the group going to have a cooler comic-book character t-shirt than me like he threatened??) How much of myself can I really be? Should I tone it down and just hold back?" and, "I hope they feel comfortable enough to really cut loose around me, because I want them all to be themselves as much as possible!"

Except for this one member of the group. You know how it is--there's one in every crowd! He's kind of of the self-designated troublemaker and has already threatened something about being a supposed nudist. Thank goodness all I have to do is take my glasses off and I'm blind as a bat!

Yup. I'm thinking it might just take all our energy just to keep that one guy in line.

But it's going to be an epic time!

I'm so excited, I'm like that little kid on the ferris wheel who's about to throw up!
Haha. Looking forward to the meet up. And I am not really a nudist. That would make everyone throw up for real!

Can't figure out who this troublemaker is. He sounds shady.

When I was young, I confused M&M with Eminem. Every.Single.Time. :p
Same here, I thought his name was actually M&M and when people said Eminem they were just being funny.

Also it took me about 7 years to learn how to spell and pronounce the band 3OH!3.

Weird evening.

First, I went outside, barefoot, to move the sprinkler- but it was dark already, and I wasn't about to carry a flashlight and be a bug beacon thankyouverymuch. Welllll. I stepped into something that was kind of hard, but also squished and crunched under my foot. The thing was almost the length of my foot and kinda wrapped around it, sorta like a shoe, but an unpleasant one. I managed not to panic, and leaned down to try to see what it was.

It was totally looking right at me.

I miiight have panicked then, because I was wearing the outer shell (feathers, some bones, head) of a dead bird. I was wearing a bird shoe. ON. MY. FOOT. (Emphasized in case anyone wasn't sure where shoes normally go...?). So yeah. That happened, courtesy of the kittybeast who was stabbing me the other night. Her threats are getting more serious.

Right, I can't stress this enough- Dead. Bird. Shoe.

So that was...well, horrible, but I'm sure it will be funny when I stop feeling so horrified.

...I was going to share the other weird stuff that happened tonight, but to be honest, I'm feeling quite traumatized enough just reliving that whole episode.

This must have been a terrible experience Cris... simply horrid! But... your hilarious gift for the written word has foiled any attempts at sympathy I originally struggled to produce. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaa...

Hello dear sister! I see life still throws you curve balls and you smack them right back with your wordsmithery. Please put down whatever you're doing and write that book!

I totally laughed, but if it was me, I would probably have screamed as though I was being assaulted. Which you were. By a dead bird carcass. Horrifyingly funny.

I think Boston is turning into my new favorite rock group of all time. Weird because I've known their music since the 70's...

Its Sunday... Nap time was promised to you by God(!)

For six days, work is to be done, but the seventh day shall be your holy day, a day of sabbath rest to the LORD.

cinder: I hear you on both points. I have woken myself up laughing before (twice in my life, but both times were in the same night) and I sometimes feel the same when I'm helping someone with a computer. Especially when I hit the "Antivirus? Well there was this trial of (insert popular antivirus) but it expired..."

MissChris: The cat left a dead bird? That's odd... birds were the only things my cat would eat. She left mice, rats, moles, squirrels, rabbits, but a bird she would eat everything of but the feathers. And I mean *everything* but the feathers. Maybe it's a matter of taste - does your cat kill anything else that it eats, and just doesn't like birds for some reason?

This particular cat normally eats the whole bird, but sometimes she'll leave them sitting on the porch a while first. I think just to make sure someone sees that she's doing her job (or else she actually IS threatening my life...cats...you just never know). Anyway, she does eat everything she kills, but sometimes it takes her a while. And then I get to step on/in it. Yay...

Father's Day BBQ at church. Bring a dish to pass. Sigh. Up at 8 to get *something* to make. Oh!! Greek salad!

I buy a bunch of veggies and some greens... chop all the veggies, there is no room for greens. So... Greek chopped veggie salad! WOOT.

Wow I need a nap and it's barely 9:00.

George Strait has been stuck in my head for several hours. He needs an eviction notice.
