camera phones is fun, also so are sharpie markers

Wednesday, June 30th, 2004

while steven was programming, i had great fun drawing tattoos on steven’s back with a permanent sharpie marker. i have had no professional training.

ct

Steven is really hot.

this is my mother. when i bought this phone, she wanted to see how the camera worked and wanted to be first in the phonebook with a picture. She took a regular picture first, and then decided that i should erase it, and that i should take a more “momlike” picture. she thought that giving kids money is what moms do best, and she came up with this picture.

m

this is a baby who goes to my church. her name is jenna. her mom who is holding her is real nice and sends me hello kitty stuff at school.

lamefest 2004

Tuesday, June 29th, 2004

As I was browsing the internet today, I came across what might quite possibly be the lamest product I have ever encountered. It is a mens shirt with attached fake tattoo sleeves. It even comes in two designs, regular or japanese!!

t1sl

This is only slightly more lame than another product I found a while ago, “unplugs” that let you look “extreme without a larger sized piercing”.

ohio is dumb

Friday, June 18th, 2004

And I hate that joke that people tell me when I tell them I am from ohio. What is round on the ends and high in the middle? bleh. I cant wait until monday. That is when I am going back south for the winter. I didnt go to the dentist today, either. I am very grouchy in the morning and I refused. For dinner I had this awful vegetarian loaf thing, corn, broccoli, and seasoned potatoes. The loaf was called “Savory Loaf”. This is boring.

I got a new phone

Thursday, June 17th, 2004

I got a new phone today because my service plan was done and I needed a new phone to have gsm now. Its really sexy and a motorola v600. I like it. Here is a picture. cept I didnt take it.

I got some new sheets for school, too. Thats not as interesting though.

TOMORROW IS GOING TO BE THE WORST DAY EVER! 10:30 am I have to go to the dentist. I hate the dentist. Not only do I have to have a terrible teeth cleaning, but also I have like 2 cavities that have to be filled. I am upset. And then, after that, I have to go get another TB test. I just had one before I started college last year, and to start the nursing program, you have to have another. They suck. Getting stuff injected under your skin is not fun. Here is a picture of my arm after the last tb test:

tb

Since I have a digital camera now, this year’s tb photo will be much better.

I had a green Shrek slushie from Burger King today. It were tasty and delicious.

Im wearing two different sizes of plugs. I look dumb. But still hot.

I still dont know how the string got in my shirt.

i bought some shoes

Tuesday, June 15th, 2004

….and everyone thinks they are ugly. they are. wonderfully ugly.

shoes

On a side note, its too hot and humid. Ohio is pretty humid, and when I was in town today, the thermometer on the bank said 89 degrees. Thats too hot. And Steven, dont even say “atlanta is worse” cuz i just checked the humidity on weather.com for atlanta and waverly, and atlanta was 87% and waverly was 94%. but its hotter there, so its worse. nm.

Walmart Adventures and the like

Friday, June 11th, 2004

First, I must tell you of the first adventure I had of the day. I woke up this morning and went to the bathroom. Upon wiping, I found something in my buttcrack. It was a ball of glue. I was playing with a ball of glue in my bed because I am retarded and must have lost it, and somehow it ended up in my buttcrack. I found this very very funny. A similar incident happened once when I was walking into the living room to ask my mom something and when I got there I felt something odd in my buttcrack. Upon inspection, a straw wrapper was found. I have no idea how it got there.

Because I was bored today, I went to Walmart with my mother. Note the dismal, gray ohio sky.

wm

On the way in, I saw a car with a peculiar rope tied to the back of it just hanging there. I mentioned this to my mother and she said that they were probably dragging black people. I found this answer odd.

Inside while my mother was looking for things, I saw a lady pick up a walmart brand pregnancy test. The conversation afterwards went mostly like this:

Man: What’re you doin?
Woman: Now Henry, I told you not to, and you did anyways.
Man: You aint pregnant are you?
Woman: I dont know yet, thats what I am gettin this here test for!

Then the man starts cursing and walks off. My mom and I just looked at each other.

I saw many fascinating things inside including:

+Taillight Tape. I didnt know this stuff existed; its just funny they have an actual product labed as such. If you dont find this funny youre stupid.

tt

+A Dirty Bandaid with Gauze. Near the Taillight repair tape, on the shelf, was this used bandaid, complete with gauze.

ba

+Shuttlecocks. Heh, it says COCKS.

sc

+His and Hers mullets. This was a tough shot. These types dont stay still for long.

hhm

These next pictures are from the discount mobile home supplies store across the street. There is also a “motel” behind it.

+The motel. Hey, at least its air conditioned when they dont fall out of the windows.

sm

+OMG WHAT A DEAL. Apparently the Storm doors are on sale for only 39 dollars o’clock! (but if you look even more closely, its two commas on top of each other. I dont get it either, but it sure is funny to say it costs 39 dollars o’clock.)

sd

+Oh, and I just cant believe this sale, MATTS are only 99 cents each,

matts

Pike County sure is fun.

I am back.

Monday, June 7th, 2004

I just got back from my vacation from the UK. I have not slept for about 18-20 hours now, because of the time difference, and I feel all out of whack. It is just odd to me because when I woke up this morning…or yesterday…see, I dont even know when it was now…OK the last time I woke up, it was 4:45 am, and our plane left for Dulles Airport in D.C. at 8 am. The flight took 7 hours….but we left at 8 am and got to Dulles at 11 am. So right now I feel like its bedtime, but it is only 5 something. So confusing. My favorite part of the trip was the food, I think. I had alot of good food. I had a lot of indian food, which I like alot, and also some really really good authentic Italian (not Fazolis, as much as I like it) and Greek food. Oh how I like Greek food. And Indian food. And good food in general, as evidenced by my jolly santa midsection. Anywho, I have observed alot of things from my trip, which I will list below.



1. English types talk stupid. Not only do they have ridiculous accents, but they call things retarded names.

washcloths= flannels
elevators= lifts
soda or pop (or coke for the southerners)= fizzy drink
eggplant= aubergines
french fries= chips
subway= the underground
trash= rubbish
diapers=nappies

This is completely unneccessary.


2. 98% of British men either dress like America’s “metrosexuals” or just plain gay homosexuals. Seriously. And for men over 45 or so….the rule is that you must dress like a gay tennis star from the 40s, which is most unfortunate for when you must sit across from them in the subway and they have their legs spread in their little short shorts.


3. Driving a car in the UK is completely ridiculous and not worth your time. First of all, gas is freaking $6 a gallon. Part of the time we were there, we had rented a van for my stepdad to drive us about in. Not only do they drive on the left-hand side of the road, but they have these horrible roundabout things that are so confusing, if you ever visit there, just pay to have someone drive you, because Americans are either too stupid or too smart to use these things. Also, on streets, people park all over the place so that only one lane of traffic can operate at once. This is highly ineffecient. We took one of those double decker bus tours, and we were going around a corner, when the driver realized this was impossible because there was a car parked on each side of the corner. Here is a picture to aid you visually:

bus

So we thought the bus would be there for a while and got off of it. Thats how I snapped this picture. Meanwhile, the traffic behind the bus was backing up badly. So what did they do? They drove onto the sidewalk, and around the bus.

bus2

I thought it were funny.


4. I like the US more than I thought I did. We have water fountains; our cheap toilet paper isnt pink; we have air conditioned hotels (I thought that was pretty much standard…I guess not.); even though I still dont like it that much, our television is much better; I havent seen someone here where a complete acid washed jean outfit since 1989; and having Queens and Princes and stuff is silly.


Now then, I took a variety of pictures while in the UK, and here they are.



I took a bunch of pictures on the subway out of boredom. We did alot of subway traveling. Here is Rachel making a horrid, horrid face.
rachel



I have several pictures of alex, also, for some reason. I think its just cuz he was there, you know. What I dont understand is why he’s outside mowing the grass right now. In this one, I learned how to use the zoom feature. Ha.

alex

In this one, he’s just standing by a pole.

alex2

In this one, it looks like Rachel is pinching his cheek.

They had signs all over the subway not to feed the pigeons, and that they were a nuisance and a health hazard. Apparently, they are extremely serious, as all the outside surfaces are covered in sharp spikey nail things. I found this very amusing and had to take a picture, and also wonder, if birds ever actually try to land on those things. I think that’d be too funny for words. Here is the picture, to which I have added arrows to aid you in seeing the nail things (I apologize in them being hard to see).

nails

There was a line we got on, and the destination was, as you see in the picture below “Cockfosters”. As I have an immature sense of humor, I found this very funny.

My sister Katie pretending to be retarded.

These are just some random pictures I took about the UK. I forgot my camera the day we went to see Stonehenge (which is a total bummer because there was a sign there that said “Pubic Foot Walk” cuz the “l” was missing, and I didnt have my camera, but Dr. Roddy took a picture for me).

These next two are from my visit to the British Museum, the largest museum in the world.

This is from some like….Egyptian Wall carving crap. You know, I dont find this stuff at all interesting.

I also saw some sort of statue. I though this angle was best for picture taking.

sb

This is my mother.

mu

They dont seem very confident about their business.

wimpy

These are from the airport.

This is what you see on every single tobacco product for sale in the UK.

sk

This is what happens when you use crappy windows for your flight updates screens.

aw

Alright. I got this out of the safety brochure thing in the back of the seat in the airplane. I want to know WHAT THE CRAP is up with this little kid the mom is supposed to be assisting with his oxygen mask. It looks like some sort of little midget dwarf elf munchkin person, not a child. I laughed a good while at this. This child’s mother did hard drugs or was on heavy medication during the pregnancy.

Thats all I have about my UK vacation for now. On a side note, isnt this guy hot?????
