3.13.10

Dear Blogger,
our power is out.
so this is me at giant.
with someone creeping in the background...
who IS that?!?!

Creeped Out, Mandy
Hey I'm back! So our power came back on YAY! And I just noticed in my picture I look like such a 5 year old. But that's okay, the attention is quickly averted to Myles in the background.
So I woke up to no power this morning! The fam and I headed to Brannigan's house where we hi-jacked his shower and ate him out of house and home. I also owned him at Supersmash bros...okay only like twice, but it was with Kirby. My man.
We got home just in time for Myles to come over! We were planning on making videos...which didn't happen because of the lack of light in the house. So we went with mom to the mall...
  • Awkward meeting with old family friends who didn't recognize me
  • Myles turned invisible and people were walking into him
  • Me throwing my wallet at some ladies butt, Myles throwing his phone at someones kiosk.
  • Getting yelled at for recording in the mall.
Yeah it's all in jolly good fun.
We then headed to Giant where we kind of sat around on the computer and contemplated making a video...but only half made it. Either way it wasn't very productive. We then parted ways with a little "faretheewell" and we rushed to Marissa's house!
You see, Marissa called me yesterday and told me about this catering opportunity! (Not anything like the last one HA) I need money = I shall work! I was supposed to go dress shopping with KelLee though :/ Arg.
Well I changed in the car into some fancy pants white/black outfit. We got to the bed-and-breakfast and started serving! I pretty much had no clue what I was doing and was thrown into it! I picked up on it pretty fast and we had everyone's orders in and everyone fed in no time. It was fun; however, I do not want to wash that many dishes again.
You know I'm around people who love Christ all the time that when I'm not...I just...I don't know, it's just so WEIRD. No class. Ha. No really, I feel like...they don't realize that their life could have so much more meaning than what they're perceiving it as, and it frustrates me.
This sounds cliche...but,
You have one life. What are you going to do with it? Who are you going to impact?

Not-so-creeped out anymore, Mandy

P.S. So Marissa and I were sitting out on the porch waiting for our ride, when some people came out to smoke. So we were walking to the other porch, when we realized there were people smoking there too. We kind of knew the lady who was smoking on the second porch who waved goodbye and said "have a goodnight girls!" So instead of saying "oh we're not leaving yet" and going back inside, we decided to walk out into the abyss of darkness in the water laden parkinglot and sit on the cold, wet ground until her dad came. We thought this would make it less awkward; however, it did just the opposite. Whenever people came out to get their cars we weren't sure if we looked like creepers sitting around them, so we would stand up and act busy. It was weird.

P.P.S. Some people have really weird conversation starters..."So how many armadillos did you see in Tennessee?"
