Once I came home from ballet to find my brother and sister with fake black eyes my mom put on them with makeup. Apparently they had a photo shoot where they pretended that my mom was crazy and abusive. When we got back the pictures they were HI*LARIOUS! That was when my dad was commuting every weekend from his job in Ohio and all disipline kind of went out the window. Every night was like a party (Mormon style of course but still!) I remember blasting WHO LET THE DOGS OUT and dancing around with our dog Cody....we're a strange family. So anyway the other night Jonny was working late and I was bored so I applied my own fake black eye and when he came home from work I pretended to be unconcious on the floor. I ruined it by laughing. I think I might be going a little crazy! I'm soooo bored. I did do a little Halloween decorating though...I LOVE the way the bats look and no Halloween is complete without mini pumpkins. I learned from my cute little neighbor Lucy that they're called sugar pumpkins and they are the kind of pumpkins you make pumpkin pie with! I didn't know that!
I have the worlds most annoying cat. She sits outside my door at night and puts her meow on automatic. MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW....she'll do it for hours. She doesn't understand personal space and usually tries to sleep on my neck but today was a rather trying day and she snuggled up to me and put her little head on my chest like she knew just what she needed. I love you Eponine thanks for being my little snuggle bunny all day it soothed my blues and kindled my heart.(That's from A Little Princess) XOXO -Brooke
Do you know what show Jonny loves? Dharma and Greg. He gets all excited to watch it and just thinks it's hilarious. Between laughing he says things like, "It's like a clash!" and "How can you not think this is funny!" And most often, "Don't judge me babe!" He's so cute ahhhhh!!! Don't tell his friend Adam about this little guilty pleasure of his! Apparently Adam gives him a pretty hard time about his passion for such a girlie show!
Today whilst watching my favorite show, "Teen Mom" I saw that the Video Music Awards are coming up. I don't know half the people preforming anymore (nor do I care to) but the VMA'S always take me back to a simpler time and AlWAYS makes me think of my beloved Britney. Ya, you heard me right, and how can you think of the VMA'S and NOT think about Britney Spears. Remember her performance in that sparkly nude number? SO AWESOME.
It's weird, at the height of her popularity I had rejected (or was rejected haha) by most aspects of teen life. I didn't listen to popular music, didn't want to get my drivers licence and when I graduated high school I had never even seen an episode of "Friends." But I just always loved Britney. Her album was the first (non-classical ballet) album I ever bought. I WAS SIXTEEN. I used to get up two hours before school to do my hair like her. You know like crimped in small sections and straight in some. Once while visiting my dad in Ohio I became hysterical over a life size cut-out of Britney in the McDonald's. I think I embarrassed him by screaming, TAKE BY PICTURE NEXT TO BRITNEY DAD, TAKE MY PICTURE NEXT TO BRITNEY! Everyone in the McDonald's stared. One night in high school I went to go see "Charlies Angels" and I had to crawl over some gay guy to get to my seat and he said, "Well excuse me, little Ms. Britney Spears" I went ballistic and then I beamed through the entire movie. I used to run home from ballet on Friday nights and blast her music while I got ready for football and basketball games. Those memories, as cheesy as it may sound, still warm my heart.
To this day I get happy when I listen to her music. When her song "3" came out last fall I danced around to it eating pumpkin seeds and drinking diet coke. I probably blasted it over my speakers about 10 times...that's what happens when your fiance works long hours. Anyway I'll always love Brit. MMMMMM.............maybe she'll do a surprise performance at the VMA'S this year! I just hope it's like an older one...not like the one she did a few years ago. That was just heartbreaking/embarrassing for everyone.....she looked like crap, I never thought I'd see the day when I looked better than Britney.
Today Eponine is getting fixed I expected a lot more drama from her but besides wanting breakfast or a drink of water she was pretty good. People keep saying that getting her spayed will make her less annoying but....I doubt it. That's just her personality. I think it's cute that when you're sleeping she has to sleep on your neck with her face touching your face. Or that she'll beg you to pet her and then when you do she attacks your hand. You have to love your pets for who they are. It has to be the same when you have kids. If I have a child and his/her personality sucks, I'll still love em!
I try to always be happy and in a good mood no matter what but today was just one of those days I couldn't get there. I'm not complaining about my life because it really is wonderful and I know people who are actually dealing with some tough stuff so it makes me feel stupid to complain, but by the time Jonny got home from work I was a puddle of tears on the couch. He can always make me feel better even if I've been a NIGHTMARE for over a week. Don't know what I'd do without him.................
We had a nice night talking and relaxing..oh and Drew dropped by which is always fun! I like to sit between Jonny and Drew on the front porch cause they're so funny to listen to. They're so mean to eachother, if I was that mean to one of my friends they would hate me!
I am the furthest thing from a morning person there is. Jonny has a new rather annoying habit of torturing me every morning before he leaves for work. He jumps on the bed, asks me a million questions, moves my arms around like I'm a life sized doll, and this morning he added taking my picture to the mix. I try to ignore him but it's hard. On the flip side he gives me like a million kisses too, so if I have to put up with one to get the other I guess I can stand it..... but if Jonny ever has a black eye you'll know why.
