I've added a new word to my vocabulary

It's amazing what you can learn around the D&D table.

Like new words and just slow I am.

My friend Byron gave me a new word for vagina- oyster ditch.

I think I laughed for a good half hour upon hearing that. Of course he lovingly shortened it and calls it Ditch. Lovingly. Heh.

So let's move on to how incredibley slow I am.

Apparently Byron and a few other guys watch that Sunny in Philedelphia show where they tea bag each other as a joke.

To which I replied "that sounds gay...*"
"Well it's not gay if you're the one doing it."
"yeah, but a mouth is a mouth and it probably feels good"

Which led to later Byron saying "...like when you shave your balls and glue them to someone's face..."

So for a good long ass time I was confused thinking "why the fuck would you glue your balls t someone's face? I mean wouldn't that hurt? And then you wouldn't be able to get up..."

It was like the Truck Balls discussion.

finally Stephen explained to me that you glue the pubes from the balls onto someone's face.

To which I laughed for another hour or so.

I love my friends, teehee.

Let's play a fun game of What the Hell is That?!?!

So Stephen and I are trying to get our yard healthy and beautiful. Our yard is the eye-sore of the neighborhood. The one with giant brown patches because we didn't rake all the leaves before Winter hit. You know, that yard. So I'm havign a problem of letting lovely flowers, and trees, and other things grow and pulling weeds. Because something I can't tell if they're weeds or not.
So I'm going to put photos up and anyone with any sort of knowledge please let me know if they are plants or weeds.
(and fyi I do consider dandelions to be weeds*)


1)

this one has a slightly sticky stem

2)

sorry for the crappy quality

3)


4)

this looks like it *could* be some sort of edible but I don't know. It's also in the side yards too

5)


6)

see the teeny tiny bluish purple flowers? It's pretty, but if it's a weed it's out of there!

7)

ok, I'm pretty sure this isn't a weed but I don't know if it'll be a flower or decorative grass...?


*Ok, why do I consider dandelions weeds? Because they friggin are! They might have a bright yellow flower, and fun seeds to blow in the wind but their roots are crazy strong and they suck the life out of every living thing around it.
Hmm, I know some people like that, haha!

Bang... bang...

  • The Celebrity Apprentice should be called "Watch Donald Trump suck Rod Blagojevich's dick in the board room every fucking week."
    I'm not that surprised though- Donald Trump is a douchebag. He's one of those small penis, small minded fucktards who thinks women need to be a size 0 everywhere except their boobs. So I'm not surprised he's making excuses for Blagojevich.
    Well at least now that he was fired that's all over with.

  • LOTRO is soooooo much better than WoW.
    Like beyond 2 million times better. Just trust me. Going back to WoW would be like walking back into Jr. High. In pretty much every sense of the word.
    I'm totally gonna get an earful from Ron and Mac lol... I almost said mouthful but then realized how wrong that sounds

  • It's been hailing every day at like 4:30 here. Coincidence? hmmmm

  • Paul is potty trained- finally!

  • He gets a treat for going poop on the toilet (to encourage) and he usualy chooses a cookie. But he'll sit there and stare at them trying to pick out the biggest one. Sigh. I haven't given him anything so where the heck did he learn to be so damn greedy?

  • I think certain people want to believe I'm still Catholic/Christian for themselves and not for me. I know it's wrong to think but I've never thought 90% of Christians who try and spread the good word are doing it because they care about anyone's souls. What the fuck makes you think I need saving? You don't want me to know God's grace- you want to feel better about yourself.

    Finishing one of the many things I've started

    I'v gotten into and started wayyy too many things. So I'm going to pick just one to pick back up. Seriously, the list is ridiculous.

  • D&D- ok, yes I currently play D&D. But when I worked at Fridays (ok shut up, I know. Yes, that Fridays with the flare, and the stripes, and the annoyingness- but honestly I loved working there. I wasn't ever the kiss-ass but more like that chick from Waiting. You know, the one who's a kick ass waitress and has a short temper and a mouth like a fucking sailor in back of the house. Her.) Ok, got way off subject. So when I was working at Fridays we hired a guy who carried on hs bet a Crown Royal bag. Those of you awesome enough to know that there was indeed no actual liquir in the bag but dice. All colors and shapes and oooh. He'd show me all his super cool dice- and anyone who knows me knows I get distracted by sparkley things. He offered to teach me to play after we talked about role playing for a while. And I didn't take him up on his offer because I was 1) not driving and felt stupid asking him for a ride to the game every week though I'm sure he wouldn't have minded, 2) shallow, or thought I should be.
    So yes, I currently play D&D but I could start actually reading the rules, maybe run my own campaign.

  • Graphic design. I posted a blog a day or so ago about how I was watching Project Runway and they made their own fabric. I want to get back into computer animation and art. But, like I said, I currently play D&D and it would be easy to focus on the rules and such. But, I am artistic at my core.

  • Painting. Forget that, I don't have time or space for something so messy.

  • Cooking. Ok, yes, I cook every meal for my family. I love food. I especially love the hisrtory and photography of food. It's beautiful and brings me such great joy to feed the people I love. Going to culinary school to polish my skills has been a dream for a long time. But school costs time and money. But I love it and it would feed my artistic side.

    So, I don't know. What do you guys think?
