One day, my mom was using pledge on the kitchen counters and it made the tiles very very slippery. We were having fun sliding around on it. Then I probably had the great idea to take my cat Gizmo and slide him on it. It was a mean thing to do, but who is to say that I wasnt a jerk back then. Regarless its something i vividly remember laughing at. Basically I rememeber doing it once or twice and remeber him sliding off the stairs. Another cruel thing I did to that cat. But those are the things you sometimes remember about your animals.

We had a very busy winter in 2006 because Susan and I planned things to do every weekend. One fun thing we did was take a trip with Cynthia and Susan down to Maryland to meet up with some friends to go skiing. Nothing too interesting happened on the drive there. But toward the end I was freaked out by Susan's driving because there were many winding dirt roads and she was driving with a lead foot. I commented a whole bunch about how I was fearing my life! I think I like being in control in those types of situations.



Anyway, we got to this beautiful mansion tucked away in this really nice neighborhood. Most of the people there were from Maryland and we all just played games and drank the whole night. One game was beer pong which I didnt participate, but we think that either that game (drinking out of random cups) or the hot tub and skiing attributed to Susan getting sick after the trip. That night was pretty crazy. One crazy thing that happened while everyone was . . . Read More..

One time for some reason I took a personal day because I had something going on. I cant even remember why, but even though at the time I was driving every day about 120 miles from Flint to Detroit, I wanted to take newsie682 out to go ice skating at Campus Martius park right in front of Compuware. It was my first time ice skating and I picked it up like a charm. I was doing 360's and skating backwards and doing tricks in no time. It was really nice goofing off with her and it was super cheap to go ice skating. I remember also goofing off with a little kid too.



That day we had planned on going to the DIA, but it was either closed or under renovation, so we went to the Science Museum anyways. There were a few really interesting exhibits but a lot of them were for kids. newsie682 liked them because most of them I would act like I normally do (immaturely) and I would mess around and play with all of them.



The coolest thing about this was that the museum has an IMAX . . . Read More..

Most grandparents dont have much in terms of sweets around the house. This one time my family was staying with my grandma for more than a week and my brother and I were really needing some sweets.

So we raided the closets only to find a bag of worthers originals.  They somewhat did the trick.  But eventually my grandma hid them on us. It was hilarious when we found out about it and I guess you just had to be there. Apparently my grandma never passed kintergarden where you learned to share.

My friend Dania convinced me and her boyfriend and her sister to go see Michael Flattleys Lord of the Dance. I love the riverdance song and I really wanted to hear it live or whatever and the tickets were cheap so I decided to go. I wasnt impressed at all with the show. Mostly Dave (her boyfriend and I) made fun of it and tried to see just how bad the flutists were panamiming.

The funny part of the night was when everyone was trying to exit the parking lot. Not having anything to drink (I am just a weirdo like this). I ran up in front of numerous cars and stopped them dead in their tracks doing the type of Irish Jigging that was going on in the dance show. All of my friends couldnt believe their eyes at how freaking funny this was. The people in the cars rooted me on. I mean I wouldnt have done this had the parking lot not been jam packed. I love being random and doing weird things.
