I only have 1 biological cousin.
I really miss my 20's. A lot more than I thought I ever would. Oh God, I miss my 20's.
Sally Hansen Insta Dry Nail Polish is ah-mazing.
I think I pass gas more than the average gal. But most women pretend like they don't fart unless it's a pre-cursor to diarrhea. So I don't really have anyway to judge. However, my gas is nothing like my dog's. His will melt your face off.
I love my neighborhood, but I'm rather bummed that I live 30 some-odd minutes away from most of my friends. Boo.
At some point during the last few years, I lost the ability to spell. And I leave words out of sentences. My texts seem to have morphed into a guessing game. Oh how I my twenties.... See what I did there?
Isaac and I are watching Mike Birbiglia on Netflix right now. He's making it very, very hard to concentrate.
I have always been sloppy. The night before my college graduation I was leaping over piles of stuff on the floor so I could get from my bed to my desk, which were only about 5 ft apart.... I was leaping like a lord in my graduation dress shoes... well, I should also tell you that I can't really leap, and I have NO sense of balance. None. Zero. Zilch. Anyway, back to my leaping... I misjudged my 2nd leap and landed on my back in an array of 4 yr old syllabus', misplaced homework, $300 books that the bookstore now said where worth $5 and clothes.... I thought I sprained my ankle for a hot second... anyway, so I used to be really messy. Now I'm just sorta sloppy. That's what that story was about. And no, you can never get those 5 mins back again.
I luh-uved The New Mickey Mouse Club when I was younger. I used to practice their entrance in the mirror. A LOT.
One summer I worked at The Discovery Channel warehouse. I secretly prayed over the Buddha figurines and children's Wichan "How-To" books. I knew it was stupid then and I know it's stupid now. But I still kinda don't feel that bad about it.
When my dog pants heavily, his wee wee jiggles. It makes me laugh. Just typing this made me giggle.
Isaac just told a joke using the phrase, "choking the chicken". And then he told me what choking a "chicken" means. omg. OMG.
One winter, about 11 years ago, I worked at the Olive Garden in Florence y'all. One afternoon I went into the women's bathroom and realized that someone had puked what looked to be, an entire garden salad all over the stall. I'm talking the toilet seat, all 3 walls, floor, the works. For years I told the story of the day somebody 'tossed their salad' in the Olive Garden bathroom. Only about 3 years ago did anybody inform me of what that actually meant. You know, for growing up and hanging out with the drum line and having a ton of guy friends, I feel like I got a little left out of the loop. Somebody should start filling me in on these things. Fo realises.
I mildly manage a comedy troupe. I simply adore those boys.
There is no bad time for ice cream.
I really miss my grandpa.

Beautiful Jen, you are beautiful!
I'm beginning to get hooked on your blog. One item you listed really brought a smile to my face. You love your neighborhood. It's been so long since I've heard anyone say anything nice about Seven Hills, that just made my day. I'm a neighbor - I currently live on Mistyhill, but used to live down on Aspen.

Lana,
Thanks! I think of Ian every time I drive down your street. I used to run the respites with Harmony and I delievered his Christmas pics last year.
And thanks, Vicki!
That was you? My sister didn't get your name, so I had no idea who it was that delivered it.
Thanks so much for doing that.
Lana
