Little Kids

When I was doing VBS, I was working with little kinderbeaners. Obviously they can't spell. This is what I saw during the crafts:

~Gob is Gub
~Yoo ar speshull
~Fanks for saving us (I believe that kid was British)

THEY ARE SO CUTE!!

Babysitting

I have finally realized how much attention a 9-year old really needs. I just babysat a girl named Patti, and I promise you, I might be deaf. She just kept talking and talking and TALKING. I guess its better than,

"Hi! How are you?"
"Good."
* pause *
"Okay then."

But oofda.

Hot!!

I was sitting on a chair yesterday, and I got my bootious maximus stuck to the chair!! Stupid humidity. :(

Pips

I am currently eating pips (chips) wif cheese. Yum!

YUCK

I was looking on Craig's List for an iPod touch, and this is what I saw:


Women seeking men
Men seeking women








Well, I thought that was it. But no!


Women seeking women
Men seeking men

Isn't it a wonderful world we live in?

Not Listening

Over the phone with Rachel:


"Rachel, how are you doing on that shield?" (Homework stuff)
"I'm singing Jar of Hearts."

* pause *


"Did you just hear what I said?"
"No." (Well, at least she was honest.) 
"I asked you how it was going on your shield."
"Oh."
"So, how is it?"
"How is what?"
"RACHEL!"
"Wha-at??"
"How. Are. You. Doing. On. Your. Shield?"
"Oh. Good."


After all that, all I got was "good". 

Maddie

At my birthday party, we watched Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (gotta love that movie). Almost everyday at school, I am encountered with:


Maddie: "Where's Milly?"
Me: "In the barn, hunting eggs."
Maddie: "I wish I could hunt eggs."
Me: "I'd love to hunt eggs..."




So der you go den.

Facebook

I am really getting tired of people asking me if I have a Facebook.

"No, I don't. I don't need or want one."
"Oh my gosh. Thats sad. You should get one."


No, thanks. I actually like to communicate with people the genuine way. 

Oops

When my mom and I were in the car last night, we were listening to the radio. One of my fav songs came on, and being myself, I started dancing in my seat. I would lean way towards the window and then toward my mom, bobbing my head. My mom started laughing even harder, and it wasn't at me. I looked out the window, and it turns out there was a car there, with people staring at me. They started laughing hysterically. We laughed, and then we drove up about a block to the next stoplight. They drove up besides us, and they WERE STILL LAUGHING.

Wrong Place

When I was with Collin and my mom getting Culver's, we were in the drive-thru. We were just talking and Mom noticed a Domino's Delivery car in front of us. We laughed so hard!

Crayons

I just remembered this.
For Halloween, I was a crayon with a bunch of my other friends. I was orange. Gus said, "Oh wow! Our crayon colors match our personalities!" She was yellow, of course.

Maddie was black.

Fun With Gus and Heels

Today when I was getting ready for my orchestra concert, I had to go and change in the bathroom. I was in there applying makeup, getting dressed, doing my hair, etc etc. I was obviously in there for a REALLY long time, because when I come back, Gus stomps over to me. This was our conversation:

Gus: "Shannon! Where the heck were you? I just about lost my eyeballs 'cuz I couldn't find you!"
Me: "Uhh... I was in the BATHROOM."
G: "Well, I have heels on and they are not very sharp but I can still very well shish-ka-bob you!"
M: (grab my abnormally high stilettos) "Well, I can shish-ka-bob you too, Gus. So there."

Ahh.... I love our friendship.
