I celebrate sugar

My day started off with me being totally oblivious to the fact that it was Sugar Cookie day. I could absolutely not remember. But I was too busy shopping to eat a sugar cookie anyhow. I had a cake pop instead. It was sugary. So there.

This was one of the first things I saw today. I didn't know how cool hot air balloons were until I saw them this morning. I was born in a very hip hot air balloon town. Hot air balloons are widely popular there. Our valley is catching on.

This was what I had instead of a Sugar Cookie. Although I delight in sugar cookies, Cake pops are way more tasty. Especially the birthday cake kind. And I actually know someone who has a birthday today. I ate that whole cake pop out of love for this person I don't really know. I celebrated in your honor Heidi.

Here’s the inside of my cake pop. As you can see, it is unbelievably fluffy and sugary. These are almost as good as Sprinkles cupcakes. But smaller. And bigger is better, and better is bigger and little bit is never enough (No no no!) Sorry. That just popped out. High School Musical, ya'll.

I hold my cake pops very tight because I think they are so delish. I do not want to drop the deliciousness.

So before I go any further I will tell you about sugar cookies. I used to not like them, but I found a great recipe and I will love them forever. I made these perfect ones at Christmas and I tried to sell them on Ebay. Sadly, no one was interested. I actually just finished those last month. I still wanted to sell them. I finally gave in to the delight.

Today I've been shopping since 8:00 for camp stuff. Items. I got almost everything I needed, and maybe more. I got a $40 dollar dress for $10 bucks. What a steal! I also happened to go to the Gap. It was probably the best happening ever.
You may think it is strange I am posting a picture of my clothes in the dressing room at Gap. I think it is hilarious. Here's the reason. After we'd been shopping for a while, this helpful young guy came to help us "start a dressing room." Whatever that means. I obviously don't shop in Gap very often because I was confused. When we finished and actually got to the dressing room, all my clothes were neatly arranged on the racks and door. I dont know about you, but I think that is pretty posh. Thank you Kevin. Or was it Jimmy?

Sincerely,
I am wearing that purple shirt now.

PS: High School Musical side note for awesome people who take classes: Did you know that Peter started singing High School Musical at the last chemistry class? I know that song by heart, go Peter!

PPS: Be sure to check eBay next time you are craving a sugar cookie. You never know what you'll find.

PPSS: I appreciate interns alot too. I want to be an intern for Glenn Beck. I am sort of an intern now. But not for Glenn Beck. I volunteer at the library. That is very intern-ish.

Better than Bacon

First of all, I don't know who Kevin Bacon is. I think it would be pretty groovy to have the last name Bacon. But bacon is rather fatty and greasy so I'm not so sure it would be a good thing after all. Anyway, its also rather hard to celebrate someone I don't know. I found out today is Video game day, which I like a hole lot better.

I am a terrible gamer. I don't know what it is about me, but I am terrible at video games. My favorite is Diner Dash, but I usually end up quitting halfway into my shift. I'm much better at the Wii than hand held games. I love Wii Party and Music and sports and fit. I love it all.

So today, Instead of playing video games, I decided to watch a movie about video games. Tron. I love Tron: Legacy. It's about this guy who goes into some game to find his dad who was trapped for some odd years. It's also about this huge game corporation called Encom. Very fitting for today's holiday. I wonder if they had it in mind while creating Tron. I doubt it. But I'd still like to believe it.

This is Sam Flynn. He’s not a program. He’s a user.

This is Quorra. She’s not a program either. She’s an ISO.

I really like Quorra’s haircut. And shut your mouth Sam.

I don’t know who this is, but I know that she is a program.

So in short, you really should see this movie. If you do, I encourage you to watch it twice. It can be rather confusing. It is wonderfully weird.
And you may be wondering what this has to do with Tron and video game day. See the crane on top? There is one just like that on the Encom tower. KJ and I thought this was cool. He'd never admit it though. I took a picture of it. So there.

Sincerely,
I'm not a program

I Survived!

Glory be! The laser was not as painful as I thought it would be. I love modern medicine. It was hilarious because Dr.S asked mom and dad not to look at the laser, and I thought it was because they could sue him or something. I'm not quite sure what I was thinking. So I asked if the laser was Legal and everyone was a bit confused.I was not looking my best. But no one can possibly look their best when they are about to have a laser shoved in their mouth. I am proof. They used some numbing thing which I will forever love because I could hardly feel a thing.

Conversation between me and Dr. S:
Me: (after numbing stuff) Are you poking me?
Dr. S: Uh, I don't know, am I?

From there on it was a walk in the park. I can only eat soft foods and what luck that today is Strawberry Sundae Day. Too bad its not Sunday. That would have been extra wonderful. Anyway, so after my appointment, we went to DQ in search of strawberry sundae's. Our plans were foiled, as DQ was closed. The we went to McDonald's, but they were out of their strawberry imitation stuff. So I ended up with a hot fudge sundae. And I actually never knew they served the fudge hot. I though it was just a name. I'm glad I figured that one out. Who knows when I might have embarrassed myself over that.
McDonald's actually has good Ice Cream. Here is my actually hot fudge sundae.

You can't even tell. Its pathetic. I want people to be able to see the pain I avoided. And I promise I don't wear my glasses that low.

I'm a little bit confused about how to celebrate and blog about my celebrating while at camp. I'm thinking of having J guest blog and possibly have some prepared posts. I'm not quite sure.

Sincerely,
I'm glad I never got Dr. S sick.
