i can't sleep. i hate when i can't sleep. especially when you drift off while watching tv before bed and then you get in bed and suddenly WOO wide awake.
today i made something called kitty litter cake with a friend of mine. we played poker at her house and decided it was the perfect occasion. you can look up a recipe online by typing in "kitty litter cake" in google. we changed a few things around (such as replacing the suggested cake types with FUNFETTI!!!!!) and it really didn't turn out to look so kitty litter like but man, it was tasty.
i like poker. i also like euchre and am itching to play.
school starts preeeetty soon. i went back to school to get some stuff out of my classroom and it was like walking through a war zone. there is construction EVERYWHERE! you name it, it's being constructed. i wonder if they will really finish before school starts. from the way things looked, i wouldn't be surprised if they weren't.
i snore.
what a great entry. thanks for everyone's bra responses by the way. it's interesting to see the variety of ways there are to put on a bra. who would have thought? by the way since i posted the survey (and yes (e:maureen), i know you woul rthink of my surveys from freshman year!!! those were the best!!!), i put my bra on by hooking it in front and swinging it around. i find it quite annoying to hook it in the back, or hook it first and then put it on. honestly i think i just put it on that way because that's how my mom does it and i just learned from her.
i really need to start calling some people back and getting some stuff done. i'm a big huge slacker.
i'm still no more sleepy than i was when i started this but i can only ramble for so long.
i really want some grape gum.
good night.

BRAS!!!!!!A friend of mine and I are having a debate/discussion/fight.
Ladies, how do you put on your bras?
I realize that there are a variety of ways and I'm trying to prove the point that the way I do it is not crazy or unusual.
Thanks for your input.

A lot of times I just put it on over my head with the clasps already done.

That is why I hate bras with clasps.

(e:jenks), being a big girl is WHY i need to put on my bra the way i do! ha ha ha!!
(e:iresara) -- buying bras is like torture for me. And even when they have my size, which they often don't, it never fits the way other ones in my size fit, and i am always need to bring 4 of the same style into the changing room. Even if i find one that fits, my guess is it will be pinching or pulling or digging in somewhere by the end of a long day!

I don't usually wear a bra but when I do I put it on my head and dance around the house naked singing the Oompa-Loompa song.

hook it together in the front, then turn it over and around the right way. this question reminded me of the polls you used to do freshman year of college... I miss them, and you :)

haha, I started out putting it on by hooking in the front then spinning around... But now that I'm a big girl I've figured out how to hook the hooks behind my back so I just put my arms in the straps and reach behind.
man I hope this wins you a bet or something, b/c I certainly never thought I'd be discussing my bra-habits online!

I just put it on forward & reach around & clasp. Although I remember my mother teaching me leetee's method when I got my first bra. That just seems too much work to me. I like it to be snug around the back, and that makes it hard to spin it around.
Does anyone else have a weird size issue? I'm a 34 C (sometimes D, depending on style) & all the 34's are A's or B's & all the C's are 36 or more...ugh! When I find a 34 C I have to buy at least 2...

I do the upside down backwards method. Does that make sense?

sooo tempting to say that i use the same theory with bras as pants (you know, one leg at a time), one boob at a time, but that wouldn't be productive, now would it?
I was recently fitted and the way i was shown is the same way i have always done it. Adjust the straps to the length they should be (they tend to move when washed), attach the hooks while at the front, spin the bra with the cups to the front, put one arm through the arm holes, then the other and lean forward to position your boobs in just the right place inside the cup.
Is that a weird way?

R Kelly's dramatic masterpiece(from billboard.com)
R. Kelly is revisiting his short film series "Trapped in the Closet," two years after the original became a cultural flashpoint. Ten new installments of the saga will be released on DVD Aug. 21 via Jive.
The Independent Film Channel has come aboard as a partner in the new release. IFC will air all 12 of the original episodes in the weeks prior to the DVD and will also stream the entire 22-installment series on its Web site. It is unknown when the 10 newest chapters will be broadcast.
The new round of "Trapped" videos finds Kelly portraying an old man named Randolph, complete with a pot belly and a fake white beard that nearly falls off mid-scene, as well as a preacher in a gray Jheri-curl wig and garish orange suit. In one of the final chapters, Kelly's Sylvester character talks business with a "Sopranos"-esque mobster who is eating a giant plate of spaghetti.
The first "Trapped in the Closet" DVD has sold 233,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan. Kelly is also in the midst of promoting his most recent Jive album, "Double Up," the latest single from which is a remix of "Same Girl" featuring Usher and T-Pain.

HPI finished Harry Potter about half an hour ago. Tears were streaming down my face as I read the last few pages and then afterwards as I sat there thinking about the fact that I just finished the last Harry Potter book ever. EVER!

I hope they cover "Toxic." They rip that song to pieces, in a good (great) way.

I hate not being able to sleep, too. It blows chunks. I've been going through it lately, too, so you have my sympathies!
kitty litter cake makes me giggle. i think someone made one for (e:Theecarey) for her birthday a few years ago... i seem to recall pictures of (e:strip)pers eating what looked like poop...
Euchre... i used to love playing. That and cribbage. Poker, i just can't keep track of what beats what.
school is finished for me. got the ged, no more school for me... yippee!
i snore too.
bras bite.
i should be doing stuff right now. i guess that makes me a slacker too.
i'm not sleepy either after typing this, but i wish i were.
i've never had grape gum...
goodnight!
Euchre! HAven't play that in ages.
grape gum by the water
let me know if you ever need another poker player
By the way the whole putting stuff on and swinging it around routine reminds me of the Exorcist movie. So could it be christened the Exorbra routine?
I am going to get a big dose of coffee to try and sleep some hours before I wake to the official Saturday.
Nice ramble. As you can see I am your partner in insomnia.
