yesterday i tried on some of my wela's old clothes. oh yes i am KUTE in those red polyester elastic waist band pants and red polyester shirt with lil blue flowers:P dont worry there are pics.

***
friday night i got a mysterious phone call. for the life of me i could even guess who was calling. no matter how many clues. he finally says "its david" i'm all "graham?" insulted he says "no, bible" i must say i never would have imagined that Bible would call me. in my defense i never spoke to the man on the phone before, he has never called nor has he ever had my number. my mom was says "he has a nice voice, he sounds like an adult"
"he is an adult"
"well i thought all your college friends were kids"

shes right he does have a nice voice. it was a nice surprise to hear from the boys. he & jeff must have been really bored.

***
really some lady told me this morning that i was beautiful. i didnt have my war paint on and my hair was pulled back. hell she even told me that i was "so sweet." she said "most of the time when people are pretty like you, they act so ugly, like they are better than everyone else"
me? beautiful & sweet? what, is this town full of ugly and mean people?
or maybe she's crazy.

***
speaking of crazy people. theres a kid in wela's neighborhood that has downs. he likes me.
great so add the mentally challanged to my winning list. so lets see: old men, drunks, wet backs and now tards want me. thats just great :(

Your brain: 100% interpersonal, 120% visual, 100% verbal, and 80% mathematical!


Congratulations on being 400% smart! Actually, on my test, everyone is. The above score breaks down what kind of thinking you most enjoy doing. A score above 100% means you use that kind of thinking more than average, and a score below 100% means you use it less. It says nothing about how good you are at any one, just how interested you are in each, relatively. A substantial difference in scores between two people means, conclusively, that they are different kinds of thinkers.

Matching Summary: Each of us has different tastes. Still, I offer the following advice, which I think is obvious:

1. Don't date someone if your interpersonal percentages differ by more than 80%.
   
2. Don't be friends with someone if your verbal percentages differ by more than 100%.
   
3. Don't have sex with someone if their math percentage is over 200%.

12:38PM - happy birthday grandpa

i need a job so i wont have to work so hard.

my mother actually had me pulling weeds. ME!. they were those angry evil weeds that we have in west texas. the kind that are angry becuase they are ugly and bight you because you want to kill them...ok they dont actually bite they prick with their thorns. ya know what? i am way too lazy to be doing yard work. my poor little hands got all dirty and cut. i hate to have dirt under my nails. i must say i dont care much for yard work at all. whatever people get paid to that for a living is NOT enough.

today is my grandpa's b-day. he is 75.

i took wela to the doctor. she was running a slight temp. i told her she had a temp. this was her reply "ohhh, thats why i havent felt good. since yesterday i dont feel good." i asked why she didnt say anything. her response "because i dont want to be sick"
oy vay.

2:11PM - how i freed my keys from the trunk

ok so it started very simply. i go out to my car to get a dress from the trunk. right now half my clothing is being kept in my car, i am homeless ya know :). i set my keys down so that i could open the bag containing the dress i wanted to wear (its made of that wonderful fabric that doesnt need to be ironed and we have yet to locate the iron since the move) i find it and set back in the house.
just as reached the front door i realized that i shut the trunk with my keys sitting on the edge. DAMN. it of course is the only car key that i have.
i called my tio ray to see if he still had that set of master keys (why or how he obtained them is none of my business) i told him that ben would be by to pick him up. for some reason he had a problem with ben picking him up, i dunno. he tells me for me to come pick him up. i pause a moment "well i cant come get you. my keys are locked in the car" (ben & ma were both at work.)
i called ben to tell him that ray said he'd find someone to give him a ride. ben says "why dont you take the cadillac?" oh damn, DUH i forgot about the golden boat. seriously this is car is unnecessarily long. my keys and my car would fit in the trunk of this thing.
i paint my face and get dressed just as i'm walking out ben showed up. thank goodness. there is no way in hell i would ever have been able to back that golden boat of a car out of the driveway. so ben moved it for me. you have to see where the car was parked and the driveway to understand.
i felt like a chola driving that thing. i could barely see over the dash. i go and pick up ray. none of the keys will unlock my car. DAMN.
with a hanger i somehow managed to maneuver the key through where the trunk closes. i got the key enough of the way out so that i could pull on it. and got enough of the ring sticking through to be able to take the key off the ring. ahhhh freedom. i had set my keys free from peril.
once my keys were released from capture ray and i held hands and rejoiced with a song and dance <- ok that part didnt happen but the rest of the story is true.
i guess getting a college degree is not proof of common sense.

*chola: slang; mexican female gang member

1:51PM - me, cool???

1:34PM - nearly knocked ourselves out

nearly knocked ourselves out
ok so ma and i are in the garage getting rid of stuff. (as you know it is never a good idea for lucy (ma) & ethel (me) to work on projects, 'cause ya just know something stupid is going to happen.
she went outside to bring the car around. i had locked the front door for some reason. i thought oh shit that was stupid she is going to need in the house. knowing how annoyed she gets when she is locked out, i decide to run in the house to unlock the front door.(me running is never a good idea in the first place) which would have been alright only i forgot that i had closed the sliding glass door. i ran right smack into that damn door. smacked my forehead, my teeth and my knees. i hit it so hard i bounced off the door. i go outside laughing, rubbing my forehead. i tell mother she laughs at me saying "tonta"
15 minutes later mother goes into the house to get something she comes out laughing, rubbing her forehead. "i forgot the sliding door was shut" we both start laughing. "i even got my teeth and my knees" she says. i laugh even harder "yeah i did the same thing"
you can see the two marks right beside one another on the glass where lucy and ethel smacked into the glass.

damn i have a headache.


if you arent laughing you have no sense of humor.

1:14PM - i was born at 4:20pm, hahaha

Your Rising Sign is Capricorn

Old fashioned and conservative, you carry yourself with dignity. You have a tough exterior, and you can be intimidating when you want to be. Hard working and ambitious, you can survive in the most cut throat work enviroments. Outside of work, you are a true friend to everyone in your small inner circle. You may have had a difficult time earlier in life. Capricorns are late bloomers and you may be coming into your own right now.

2:02PM - wela

so yesterday wela calls me to see what i was doing. (if i dont go over there by noon she calls me) i go over i walk in the door and she hands me the remote to turn the volume on the tv down (she cant see the buttons) so i turn it down then she walks into the kitchen and tells me to turn the lights off. so i turn those off then she starts towards the door "ok, lets go" so i follow her "where are we going" she stops and turns around "you take me to wal-mart" she gets to the door holds the door open and says "unless you dont want to" so of course i take her to the store.
i guess she just wanted to get out of the house, because when we were leaving the store she decided she wanted to sit somewhere and have a coke. we went to dairy queen ( they have half price drinks between 3-5pm)
we got back to her house and then tells me she is hungry. she asks me if i'm hungry i tell her no she tells me "youre lazy" after the 3rd time she asked if i was hungry she finally says "you go and get us hot dogs, i'll stay here."
after we ate she says "i wish there someplace we could go" i couldnt think of anywhere so i asked her if she wanted to go the cemetery. we are driving out there and she says "you have gasoline?" i nod "yes" she says "good, i dont want to be on the side of the road"
we are at the cemetery and we couldnt find welo's or granny's plots. i go to the office and ask. i point them out to her she asks where her plot is. i say "i'm standing on it" she looks at me "oh, you a bad girl" then she laughs.

wela cracks me up.

1:13PM - be ware of mr. pendejo

ok so yesterday i went to 7-11 to get a hot dog, because wela wanted me to eat lunch with her (even though i wasnt hungry, btw did you know that if you arent hungry it makes you lazy??? :) ) this older white guy is in line ahead of me. he leaves, i get my dog and i leave. i am just about to cross the street when this black car pulls in front of me. i stop and take a few steps back thinking what the hell is wrong with this idiot. the window comes down it was that ugly ol' guy that was ahead of me in line, i'm going to call him mr. pendejo, says "hey what's your name?" mr Pendejo said it all creepy too, like an old man trying to seduce a child. i felt like i needed to shower just from the way he looked at me, bleuhk. i didnt answer him instead taking a few more steps away from the car i say "can i help you?" he responds with " well i just think you are real pretty girl" i didnt thank him instead i walked away saying "well i'll be sure to let my husband know you think you so" he yells out the window "youre married?" still walking i yell back "yep" I had to lie, i didnt want him to know i was a single young female.

ok first of all, he is about 20 years older than me. the way he did it was just creepy. i mean if he was going to strike up a convo it would have been less creepy if he done it in 7-11 (not that he would have had a chance in hell, not even if he were the last man on earth and there were no batteries.) the fact that he said i was a pretty "girl" not a pretty lady or woman. it was just yuk.

so i'm telling my mom about it and tell her what he looks like and the car he drives. mother knows his wife.

aaaargh, sick dirty old trashy bastard. YUK!

i just find it so insulting when ugly people try to talk to me.

4:02PM - email: he is out of the hospital+ wela is silly

well they sent jack home yesterday right after lunch. yay!

and i want you all to know that your grandmother is crazy. :) i took her to her doctors appt yesterday. we get out of the car she says placing her hand on her chest "he is going to check me here" then points down below "not here" i just laughed "wela does that even work anymore?" she laughed "yes, it works pretty good"
we are waiting to the see the doc. she slides in her chair so she can reach me and kicks my ankle 2 times and says "quick kicking me" :)
i take her to go eat, the waitress brings the bill, pointing at me she tells her "put it over there"
wela asks me if i have to go to the bathroom. i tell her no and she tells me i'm lazy. i'm lazy because i dont have to go the bathroom???
