A taxi of sorts.

So people, I'm sort of in a Taxi. This Taxi happens to be black and has 4 people and 2 dogs constantly riding in in. This Taxi had taken me quite a few places, Texas, California, Washington, Arizona and most recently, Atlanta. Our taxi just stopped to visit some friends. I'm pretty much as happy as a clam. Here's why:

1. I am almost HOME, as in my house by the beach with a pool and my own room. That home

2. We just stopped at a nice house to visit nice people.

3. I am drinking a black cherry smoothie
.
4. Its from quick trip.

5. I just saw a man wearing the coolest sombrero.

6. I am tetxting one of my best buddies.

So this might be a make up for Happiness Happens day which I missed. I took pictures of taxi's in Chicago, I'll show them to you soon.

Sincerely,
I drew the best picture of Johnny.

In the middle.

That's actually not an entirely true statement because I am not in the middle or the middle child. I classify myself as a middle child because I have some of those characteristics, but technically I am the youngest. I don't get technical too often. So today I am definitely the middle child. Here is a conversation that happened on KJ's birthday:

Me: First borns are more likley to be CEO's.
Dad: Well, second borns are more likley to be homeless.

At this point I start crying because I do not want to be homless. And everyone is laughing.

Today I was in Chicago. Today, I loved being Chicago. We went to the 103 floor of the 2illis Tower and went on the sky deck. It was pretty awesome. And slightley scary. I took about ten thousand pictures, so as soon as I get home I will update you. (I just notected I said homless instead of Homeless. Is bad spelling a side affect of homelessness? I hope not.)
I went to the American Girl store just for kicks, and while I was there I met someone famous. Ok, so I saw him and I still dont know who he is, but everyone else seemed to think he was the best thing ever. I mean he had pink on, come on Johnny!! (thats his real name.)So basically Mom and I were standing on Michigan Ave when Johnny walks by with two bodyguards. All the girls around us were freaking out. I was sort of freaking out because I was confused about everyone else freaking out.They were all chasing after him and then he turned and looked at me. (cue the dreamy music.) And then I was laughing because he was so retarded and we went on our way trying to figure out who Johnny was. That my friends, is a true story.

So in short, I went on the sky deck, walked around in a big city, didn't get my purse stolen and I still dont know who Johnny is.

Sincerely,
I heart Chicago.

Ps: there are an insane amount of typo's in this post. I cant fix them on this silly phone. I meant the Willis tower, in case you were wondering.

Hi, its me.

Its late. I can't blog late. No one would ever read this blog if I always blogged late. It would be so pathetic and boring. So I'll spare you the run on sentences and attempted (and failed ) humor and write bright and early tomorrow. I am so excited to see you all!!!!

Sincerely,
I did sneak a zucchini today.

PS: Somehow, my number of clothing articles dramatically increased because my bag is stuffed and I have alot more stuff to stuff in. I pride myself on being an expert packer. Apparently, I'm no expert. And apparently, I have too much stuff.

Under for a reason

This might be the only time I highly encourage you not to celebrate in public. This will probably the only time I am discouraging you from celebrating. So Underwear day. Is there any creative way to celebrate this that does not involve doing something incredibly stupid? Is there any way to celebrate without regretting it for the rest of your life? No such kind of a celebration has been brought to my attention. I'd prefer to keep my sanity for as long as possible. If possible.

So basically there is one thing we can do to celebrate without forever embarrassing ourselves. Repeat after me.

I see London, I see France....

you finish. You know it. And that's that.

Sincerely,
I want to see France, I don't want to see your underpants.

Nautical.

So the only thing I know about the Coast Guard is that in a Boxcar Children book they rescued some bizarre scientist from the water (of all things!) and the Alden's saved him. So that's that. In case you were wondering, I do not read the boxcar kids anymore, (I say kids because kids is cooler than children) The boxcar kids were really the greatest and I am now droning on about non Coast Guard topics and using a run on sentence. Oh Joy.
Lets observe this picture:

1. This is not a good angle for my face. We wont go into any details. but its really not the greatest.
2. See the kitty? We've made an earth shattering discovery.
3. Gypsy is a boy.
4. We are both very jazzed about the Coast Guard, even though neither of us know anything about it.

We did pretty good observing didn't we? I'm probably the next Sherlock Holmes. Ok, maybe not.

Good news folks! Tomorrow is the last day of VBS. VBS does not agree with me for whatever reason. I try to like it. I try to have fun. And I fail. Although, when I was in angel I did not mind a bit. Being an angel is pretty sweet. More good news: We leave in 6 days. Be assured I will have several bags of trail mix handy to keep me occupied and happy for 3000 miles.

Sincerely,
I am easily entertained.

The official picnic fruit

This is National Picnic month. I don't know why picnic day did not land in this month, but at least watermelon day is today. Watermelon is so cool. Literally.One for you and one for me, how sweet!So other than the watermelon on the front, you'd have no idea this is watermelon. It tastes like fruit punch. And its only 10% juice. Kids, this is health food.

Sincerely,
Lover of watermelon and all things pink

Deja vu??

So I'm not quite certain, but I do believe that June 2nd was International Dinosaur day and some Ice cream celebration. I love Ice Cream, but there are way too many Ice Cream celebrations. I am fresh out of adjectives to describe my favorite ice cream. So, I had no ice cream. Shed a tear for me please. But PS: I love cookie ice cream sandwiches.

Here is an equation:
Cookie(s) + ice cream = yummy stuff

sums up the celebration.


Lets talk about this months celebrations! Another best friend day. Woot Woot. And cupcake day. And August 31st is going to be the coolest holiday ever celebrated. I'm booking Emily Walker for August 31st. In case you don't know, I adore trail mix.

Sincerely,
Another Equation: fitted top+casual pant+structured jacket = WNTW approved outfit

PS: The August stuff is up, start celebrating people!
PPS: The search this blog gadget does not work. Sorry. If you've been needing to do some searching, you'll need to switch to manual. Again, I say sorry.
PPS: 3rd post with no pictures. Is this a record? You probably should be counting.
