9:18a - a family of geniuses
heeeeee. witness this exchange between my sister and myself. we had very high sat scores, for serious.
Lissa: I think I want to be the Wonder Twins for Halloween. I can be whichever one turns into the animal and then carry around a bucket of water.
Ahe: that's hilarious. which one turns into water? it's zan, right?
Lissa: Is Zan the boy?
Ahe: yes? i'm not sure. wait, is it zan and jayna or zayna and jan?
Lisa: I don't know. Which one would the girl be?
Ahe: Jan. or Jayna.
Lissa: I think "Zayna" is a girl's name.
Ahe: and "jan" is a boy's name?
Lissa: Jan Michael Vincent is a boy.
Ahe: okay, first off, his name is "jan-michael," not "jan" and second, shut up.
Lissa: Okay, well, the girl turns into the animals, right? And the boy turns into water?
Ahe: i thought the girl turns into water.
Lissa: you thought styrofoam was edible.
Ahe: I WAS THREE!!!!! ... here , hold, on, I'll look it up. Here: http://www.supermanhomepage.com/images/superfriends/wonder-twins1.jpg
It's jayna (girl) and zan (boy). and you're right--the boy turns into water.
Lissa: You are the best. You know what would be great, a Jayna in the shape of an elephant & Zan in the shape of a bucket of water. Then I could spray people all day.

9:52a - a pirate's life for me
how do you think i'd look with a peg leg? would that be sexy, you think? i ask because i totally fucked up my foot. it feels a lot like the stress fractures i used to get in high school with i participated in volleyball, track & field and volleyball all during the same semester. don't ever do that by the way. it's not good for your health. anyhow, i have to totally tiger balm it up and wrap it at night and i'm way limping. i feel very silly and self-conscious, like everyone's looking at the girl with the gimpy foot.
will you still be my friend if i'm crippled?

10:11a - when the world falls down...
am i a republican for agreeing with almost everything that ainsley hayes ever says? because i really don't think i am. is it possible to agree with certain republican principles and still be a democrat? because everything the show has her say (as listed below) is pretty much me, right on the money.
I believe that every time the federal government hands down a new law, it leaves for the rest of us a little less freedom. So I say, let’s just stick to the ones we absolutely need to have water come out of the faucet
and our cars not stolen. That is my problem with passing a redundant law.
This White House that feels that government is better for children than parents are. That looks at forty years of degrading and humiliating free lunches handed out in a spectacularly failed effort to level the playing field and says, 'Let's try forty more.' This White House that says of anyone that points that out to them, that they are cold and mean and racist, and then accuses Republicans of using the politics of fear. This White House that loves the Bill of Rights, all of them - except the second one.
I oppose the ERA because it’s humiliating! A new amendment that we vote on, declaring that I am equal under the law to a man. I am mortified to discover there’s reason to believe I wasn’t before. I am a citizen of this country. I am not a special subset in need of your protection. I do not have to have to have my rights handed down to me by a bunch of old, white men. The same Article 14 that protects you, protects me. And I went to law school just to make sure.
