2012-Jan-22, Sunday 10:37 pmOK, so, I was in the kitchen eating a mandarine orange fruit cup (like ya do), and one of the little slices of orange fell out and on the floor. So I squat down and pick it up.
And so Padora stretches and walks over, all like: hmm, what’s that?
and I’m all like: It’s a little slice of mandarin orange, baby.
and Padora’s like: Can I see??
and I’m like: Oh sure you can smell it. I’m pretty sure you wont want it though. I mean, you’re a carnivore and it’s really more for veggie and fruit-o-files like myself.
and Padora’s all like: *sniff sniff* impressive words *sniff sniff*
and I’m like: Inoright? But since it w as on the floor, you can totally lick or sniff it or whatever, cuz I’m not gonna eat it.
and then Padora’s all like: *sniff sniff NOMNOMNOM gulp*
and I’m all like: zomg! you just ate some orange xD
…yeah… that happened :3
Starving Curse
2010-Nov-07, Sunday 04:29 pmIt’s after 4, and I keep thinking that I need to eat something even though I’m not hungry.
Today, after church, Mom and Dad and I went to Western Sizzlern, which is a much better than the one we used to go to in Houma. Anyway, by the time we’d gotten then and sat down, I was so hungry that I was starting to feel sick. I do this thing that I love where I eat mashed potatoes, but instead of using the gravy they set next to the mashed potatoes, I go over to the shredded roast beef on the other bar and load that on top of my potatoes. It’s better flavored than the average gravy, and I love the beef too. But this time, not only did I load up on my mashed potato delight, I also got some chicken, slice of pork, hush puppies and green beans (well, not large portions of them, but still). Now, usually I either eat a huge salad loaded down with everything or just my mashed potatoes and a roll. I ate so much, I actually shocked myself…
…all of that, is to just say that I’m not hungry right now because I had the shakes and pigged out. But, since it’s Sunday, after 4, and I know we’ll be leaving in an hour and a half, I keep thinking, “If I don’t eat now, I’ll be starving in church!” And the curse of the starving congregation is almost worse than the curse of the starving class -..-

Your Road is Paved With Wisdom |
![]() You've probably traveled on a long, hard road already in your life, and you've learned some important lessons. You know to let the small things slide. Things usually turn out better than you fear. You've learned to sit back and enjoy the ride. You don't push too hard. You pace yourself. You offer good advice to others, and you are an ideal friend. You find it easy to share your wisdom. |
You know, today, the pastor gave us all these work sheets that have huge headings on them. It says to make four to five rules for each of the headings that would help you to grow in faith. The areas are Church, Home, School and Friends. It kinda made me wonder...what if someone asked us all to develop some rules for these or other topics. What would we write down? Would I want to take a page from your book? It can be simple, yeah?
Like, for Church… the most basic rules I can think of are: 1) Show up. 2) Stay awake. 3) Be reverent. 4) Find a place in which you can perform and do so to the best of your ability :)
Tho...I suppose that last rule would be a good one for life in general. Actually...all of them might be considered a good base for life. Show up, stay awake, be reverent and try to find a place in which you can perform and do so to the best of your ability :) The rules of life…there they are :D
Oh. Before I forget. I’m trying to form a sort of currency system. I’m thinking there should be currency commonly used by the poor, the middle class and the wealthy. So, I’m thinking… Poor - Copper and Tin; Middle class – Gold and Silver; Wealthy - …? I got nothing for the wealthy. I had thought of platinum, but I’m not too sure about it. Also, I thought I might invent some sort of material...Once again. I’m not 100% sure. Still working on it.
Today, I ate a black forest ham sandwich with chicken breast from subway…and the chicken breast was bad =..= Note to self: make sure before consuming the whole thing next time >..<
…that’s all I got. Ja!
| You Are a Cirrus Cloud |
![]() Some people may even consider you allusive. You're hard to track down at times. People who know you find you to be very transparent. It's always easy to tell what you're thinking about. You tend to drift more than most people. You're always trying out new ideas, friends, and even personalities. |
...great...next time someone says "Be Serious." I'll say, "I am!" :3
