strike while the iron is hot

todayis the daythatMY LICENCE RESTRICTIONS ARE OFF!!!yes, it's true. i shall no longer live under the cloud of fear of being pulled over when i have more than 1 unrelated person in my car. i feel so FREE.in other, less exciting news: last night my dad put my pillow in his sweaty armpits. (we often sabotage each other's beds with nail clippings, crumbled chips, and things of that sort). i went to bed several hours later and had completely forgotten about this incident. as a result, i slept with my cheek pressed against my dad-s armpit sweat the entire night. also, went to lunch with ethan today. it was fun because i haven't seen him for almost the entire summer. then we went to buy books at school. yay!! needless to say, bookbuying was the highlight of my week. (but not really because i was being sarcastic)

cat taught not to sleep in wok

just got back from taking david school shopping. we went to noodles for lunch, and he told me that if he was a girl he would marry orlando bloom. what great taste!my onion horoscope:an attempt to popularize the book-length homilies of Laura Ingalls Wilder will result in professional wrestling's strangest phase yet.

test

seeing if the picture will work

passerbys were amazed by the unusually large amounts of blood...

today proved to be very eventful. i took tyler to a parent child tennis tournament this morning and we lost because i was scared to hit hard at the little kids and grandpas we ended up playing. Then, tyler and i played badmitten in the driveway for awhile. this afternoon, we went to irish fest. at irish fest, we saw a professional tug of war tournament (the qualifyers for the world championships in minnesota), an irish dog show (i don't know how it was irish), irish dancers, a bagpipe parade (jane - you would have loved it), and a really old man wearing a purse. also, i saw several hundred rugged, kilt wearing men with knifes in their socks. it was a beautiful thing.

tennis

tennis tournament today in Green Bay. had to get up at 6 to catch the bus at school. i won my first two matches and lost the third, took second overall. the team won overall. my first match was against the girl i made cry at last year's sectionals, so it was really satisfying to beat her again, although she didn't cry again and i was kind of hoping she would. i played for about six total hours, so now i am a tired sunburned mess, and i think i have an ingrown toenail. trust me, it's hot.

daisuke

went shopping in Chicago with my mom yesterday and got some new clothes to update my already incredibly hip wardrobe. we also accidentaly hung out in a big and tall ethnic clothing store. i started watching the olympics today. among my favorite events have been equestrian 3 day dressage and the modern pentathalon. my horoscope: investigators will say your death was caused by shoddily wired bathroom lighting, but that is just wishful thinking since you're standing right there.

i am the best

i had my sports physical today, and the woman said i had to get a blood test. so i told her to sign my sheet first before the test and i would walk down to the lab myself after the appointment. after she signed the permission slip, i ran out and drove home. i am officially proud of myself.

asdfasdfasdf

got back from cambridge. it was so much fun. i don't feel like writing everything here so just ask me about it. also, pictures coming soon.

this wee...

this weekend was awesome. I went to my lakehouse in the U.P. of Michigan. I am still a little paranoid because I found six ticks on my clothes once after walking through the woods. None of them attached, but every time i have an itch i feel like it is a tick. the water was 48 degrees but my brothers and I went tubing anyway. i never thought i would be warm again. biked to cedarburg today but forgot my money so i couldn't buy any food there. i am SO ready for English even though i have only studied for like 2 hours.

i just want...

i just wanted to see what the horny logo looked like
