Betty White...in person
No, no, don't get too excited, I didn't actually see Betty White of Golden Girls/Mary Tyler Moore/short lived Ellen (the second sitcom) fame in person. But I am reading her book by that title. AND IT IS A JEM!!! I love it. I got it from (e:libertad) for my bday and I read a little bit of it before I go to bed. It is just little anecdotes about a million different tings in her life. What she thinks about fan mail, comedy, theater, televison, pets and the such. It is soo Betty White (as if i Know her! which I ink I do)! I dn't love that she loves animals so much but still I love the book and recommend it!!!!

P.S. It is kinda funny though she wrote it like in season 2 of the Golden Girls and talks about how she couldn't stand working if she didn't get along with her costars and how perfect it was how well they all get along and she couldn't imagine it any other way....yet we all know the drama between her and Bea Arthur later on...there's a reason Golden Palace is lacking one oversized manly woman in a drape!

National Slowdown?
At work today we were dead. We only filled 230 prescriptions, where a normal monday sees like at least 400 and usually like around 450. Like noone came into the store. Did anyone else notice that? Was it because of 9/11? Did people not leave their houses today or were they all at Memorials? I don't know, I just thought it was interesting!

Of Gas and Buses
First of all I almost just killed my whole family by accident. I'm on the couch talking to (e:jill) on the phone when I start to smell something. I am thinking in my head hmm what is that smell, it is so familiar and kinda obnoxious yet somehow also good and makes me kinda hungry. Them my mom screams "open the windows"...I ugess she had turned on the fire on the stove but the fire didn't go on so it was just on high leaking tons of gas. Had I been home alone I prolly would have died while tihkng "hmm what is that smell?"....maybe i need to stop killing brain cells with alcohol....

Secondly, I hate that school is back in session cuz that means school buses and that means it takes 6 hours to get down elmwood or anywhere else...I walked to school....so should everyone else

Birthday: Partido Quatro
So the final part of my bday (except maybe a work party that will turn into a bday party on sept. 6) was on Saturday and it was muy excelente. It involved super tasty french onion soup (did you know that it could be made at home? I always assumed it was a restaurant only thing for some reason), pasta with vodka sauce, salmon (which i love) and brocolli. And then an amazing pecan chocolate cake with like real whipped cream. Buit the best part is that it was all served to me in bed! How fantastic is that? Especially on a rainy day wher eyou juts want to get under the sheets. But it didn't' end there. Then i got the goods. Mocha Jet Cafe which is super sweet since that is how this whole thing started back at Coffee & and my using the mocha jet cafe addiction to be there as much as possible. Also the tasty hot cholcoalte mix they use at Cafe Aroma and an OUTKAST CD THAT HAD NO CD IN IT! Seriuosly, it was all security wrapped and everything but then afyter ten minutes of tearing through plastic, there was no cd in it. It was crazy. Anywho the whole night was amazing! Thanks (e:libertad) for making my birthday so special!

As my 5 day birthday is coming to a close, thanks eveyroen for making it amazing! IT truly was more than I ever oculd have asked for!

Ok you two are way too freaking cute. :) I love it.
libertad - 09/04/06 01:24
I love your post and use of spanish, but I believe you want to say "Parte cuatro". Partido is a political party like republicans or democrats. Actually it may even be "el cuarto parte"

I loved our time together. To say the least, it was amazing. I'm so annoyed that the CD was empty like I bought it from some street vendor or something. It felt so cheap, like I bought it form someone on the street. I don't think i'll ever forget how great it was to make you happy.

Birthday Day 3/I GOT A TRAMPOLINE!
So last night was very fun! It all started off with a quick trip by me and (e:mk) to the Target dollar section where everything was on clearance for a quarter. Needless to say I've been stocking up on cheap plastic everythings! So then (e:beast) picks me up at 930ish with a gift to big to bring with us and so i open it and what is it.....A TRAMPOLINE!!! How crazy is that? I have always wanted a trampoline. It is like a personal exercise one I just don't know where i can use it cuz if i jump in my house i will get concussed by the ceiling. Hmm is concussed a word cuz I use it a lot? She also got me this Little Miss and Mr. Plate and fork/sppon combo tha twas such a knockoff cuz it acted like it wasn't Little Miss and Mr. though it was clearly pictures of them on it. It was from Hawaii. (e:beast) also made me an awesome hat I got to wear out proclaiming my bday. I hope there are pics to be posted at some point though I don't remember many pics being taken.

Anywho, then we get to (e:mk)'s where Brian is meeting because he was driving. AND he had cake and chocolates which were super tasty. OK i forgot about the chocolate so I haevn't eaten it yet but the cake was from his work I guess they have a bakery or something and it was super duper good! So that was cake time number 4 for my birthday at that point and i loved it! So we drove brian's super dupa fly new car that he just got yesterday and it had like only 30 miles on it. It can only handle 850 pounds of passenger so luckily we were all pretty light yet still we were pushing the limit I thik. 850 split 5 ways does not leave a lot of weight per person. SO then we picked up (e:libertad) and we were on our way!

At Frizzy's (e:jill) and jim and (e:amanda) and nick were there to join us. So I opened my gifts. Well I got a drink first of course and thne opened my gifts and wowser they were good. I got Golden Girls Season 2 DVD (Golden Girls party soon to follow!), Mean Girls DVD, Center Stage DVD, an American Idol Microphone, an awesome Rocky Mountain shot glass, strawberry chewies, twizzler sours and other asosrted goodies. I actually got two copies of seasoon 2 of Golden Girls so I will exchange one , prolly for season 3, SCORE!

Then (e:diana) showed up a little later with and awesome pin for me to wear! Then (e:paul), (e:terry), (e:matt), and (e:theeecarey) came and joined us. Which was exciting cuz I didn't think they were going to come! Then the people who used to live in front of (e:pmt) were there. Not for my bday they just happened to be there but it was still fun because I hadn't seen them in a while. A little later I think (e:pyrcedgrrl) showed up also.

It was exciting because LIz Chadwick was there who makles this shot called wet panties which is sooo good. And so we did a few of those cuz she is the only one who can make them so it was good she was there!

Somewhere in the middle I wasn't feeling super good and took a walk with (e:libertad) to protect me! Thanks (e:libertad)!

Then off to NY Pizza and then we were on our way after a brief stop at Cathode and the Pink.

ALL IN ALL IT WAS SUPER! THANKS EVERYONE FOR GIVING ME A GREAT BDAY!!!!
