Snoogins!!!!!

Hey All!

Just a couple things I wanna say. I was gonna make them separate posts, but decided instead to not delve deep ('cuz I'm tired) and just lay them all out there.

* Our student trainer, Amanda came in today so I could sign her yearbook. It's been "herds" long since I've signed a year book, so I had no clue what to say. I couldn't very well sit and browse through her yearbook, since she hadn't even seen it yet...but I really wanted to. I'm one of those dorky people who like reading the Senior quotes and looking at the baby pictures the parents put in the back...goofy things like that. The other kids don't get theirs until Monday and I doubt I'll have any more to sign. Somehow, Tuesday or Wednesday I've gotta get my hands on one so I can browse through it and check everything out. Their yearbook, even from the little bit I saw, is 10 times better than ours was. Speaking of which, maybe tomorrow, while I'm procrastinating cleaning I'll take my yearbook down off the shelf and fumble through it again. Nothing like reliving a little teen angst.

*I'm still trying to keep up with my Netflix. Last week, they sent me "An Evening with Kevin Smith". I first saw Clerks a few years after it's release while I was living with a fellow Jersey-ian, Kare. I remember it seemed a bit slow in the middle and don't really remember seeing the end the first time I watched it. However, he hooked me and from there I saw "Chasing Amy" ('cuz I heard mixed reviews on Mallrats) which just disturbed me a bit. I still get sucked into watching it every time it's on though and then for days after some of the references cause me to shudder, which looks really strange, 'cuz there's usually not anything around and people will wonder about me! :) Jeremy and I saw Dogma in the movie theater (remember the stupid people who talked through the whole thing?)and it instantly became one of my favorite movies, both for subject matter, as well as Kevin Smith signature banter. In none of these movies, did I think either Jay or Silent Bob to be attractive.

So, I'm watching my Evening with Kevin and at one of the schools (it was edited so the school shows weren't all together, but mixed up throughout the tape)Jay walks out on stage in his little white tank top,lounge pants and long hair. I couldn't help myself from thinking "he's hot"- which completely threw me for a loop! It's a two-disc set so when I finished the first one I had to wait to get the second half. The whole few days or so, all I could think about was Jay in his little tank top and lounge pants and that I had to wait at the mercy of the Netflix people until I could see him again. Being the over analyticaly type we all know me to be, I couldn't for the life of me figure out why, now, all of a sudden, I thought he was hot. (Kare and Jill - I'm gonna leave out the other analysis because not everyone would understand and they may actually think me to be weird and goofy.) It's a bit scary because I went from wanting a nice, romantic, gushy, sweet guy to date (you know, the opposite of what I usually want, but once I get my heartbroken seems like a good idea because they wouldn't hurt me) to liking a stoner-portrayed, goofy, tank topped guy who has.....here it comes....potential to be great. WHY CAN'T I LEARN?!?!?!?!? Words like, Snoogins aren't cute and endearing. They certainly wouldn't be when I'm trying to have an intelligent conversation about my day, or my feelings or something. They'd be annoying and childish. Must...Keep...repeating this to myself. After reading Kevin Smith's website boards and blogs and such, I found out the have an "Evening" part 2. Think he's in there?

* Third, I just want to let Number Boy know my thoughts, heart and love have been with him all day. Jerm, I wanted to call you, but I didn't want to make you cry and I was afraid I would cry, then we'd all be big ol' messes (difference is, you prolly were at work). The world is a little sadder place today, with a cuter face never to be found ever again. All I can hope is that The Mav greeted him and is showing him around and keeping him company. (Granted, Mav is um...a third or so of Jake's size, so it'll look a little strange.)

* Lastly, I am down to 3 days left at the job. It hasn't really sunk in and probably won't until Thursday when I wake up with NOTHING TO DO! I'm sure that now, even more so than before, the summer will fly by and I'll be back in the training room before I know it. I'm not sure how much I'll write over the summer. Maybe a little after my San Diego trip, then again after hanging with Don Juan in Cheese Country, but really what else can I say "today I got up, went to the shore, got tan, worked out, ate and went to bed"? (Are you guys jealous yet? :) :) ) Snoogins! :) I'm sure I'll write more, but I'm planning on a boring, nothing new to say, summer....but I might have lots of fun philosophical thoughts from too much time baking in the sun! :) Happy Friday!
