Subject: 100 and counting?

Hi Anne!

This is our what, 100th e-mail to each other?  (lol).  Gee, would I be nutty enough to actually count all of them?  Maybe!

I was off work today so my mom and I went over to my aunt’s to see the baby.  His name is Mark Richard, by the way, not Mark Robert.  He is so beautiful.  So tiny.  So perfect.  It amazes me and scares me to death to think how someone can be so totally dependant on you.  I know I’m not ready for that kind of responsibility at this point in my life.  I guess that’s why God has a perfect time and place for everything.

You wonderd how someone like Chell (pushy bitch) has a great husband, great job and a great house?  Well, I wonder the same thing!  Not about Chell, because I don’t know her,  I’m talking about when I see really miserable girls with pretty decent guys.  I look at that and think ‘whats up with that?’  You know what’s really sad about all of that?  These are probably the men who stay faithful to their wives, and the men who have the loving and giving wives are probably the ones who are more apt to cheat!  I hope that isn’t true, because if it is, I guess you and I will have to go to Bitch School or something!

Thank you for the info about html and the links.  Its still all greek to me.  I really haven’t had a chance to sit down and look through it.  I will.  Eventually!  Just call me the queen of procrastination!

There was a movie on The Disney Channel yesterday: Wish Upon A Star.  It was really cute.  I really liked it.  It was about two sisters: one brainy and a tomboy and the other was pretty and popular and the brainy one wished she was the popular one.  Anyway, when they woke up the next morning they discovered they had "switched" places.  It was sort of a "Freaky Friday" type movie.  If you get a chance, rent it.  You’ll really enjoy it.  It would probably be in the "Family" section of the video store.  It stars Katherine Heigel and Danielle Harris.  I saw it before a couple weeks ago and when I saw it again yesterday, I taped it.

Congratulations on doing your homework! (Well, you asked me to congratulate you!)  Also, congratulations on "DA BOSS" going out of town!  Will you be able to download all those naked pictures of Angel now (wicked laugh)? 

I have another "embarassing" story to tell (I’ve got tons of them!)  I was checking my e-mail the one day and my one friend Danielle had sent me a picture of a man in his *AHEM!* natural state.  Anyway, my dad was home and he was sitting in the living room (the computer is in the dining room) and as soon as I realized what kind of picture it was, my dad started coming into the dining room, and the stupid computer froze up on me!  I was like ‘Mother Fu&*er!’ and I just turned off the moniter!  Dear Lord, talk about sweating like a pig!  I know now not to check my e-mail when my dad is nearby! (espeically from Danielle!)

I hope you’ll be able to go to Montreal for your next birthday.  That would be so awesome!  Have you ever been there before?  I would love to go to Prince Edward Island.  The movie "Anne Of Green Gables" was filmed there and the scenery was so beautiful.  Actually, I have the money now to go but my two "problems" are not enough time and who would go with me.  My friend, Ingrid is going to Austria in August by herself.  I don’t think I could travel alone.  First of all I’m the world’s biggest chicken sh*%.  ALso, I think I would get kinda lonely.  Thank God I have my sister!

You asked me about the movie Rudy.  Wonderful movie!  Rent it!  Here is the write up on it in the Leonard Maltin movie and video guide:

Rudy (1993) *** (out of 4)  Director:David Anspaugh.  Cast: Sean Astin, Ned Beatty, Robert Prosky, Charles S Dutton, Lili Taylor, Jon Favreau, Jason Miller, Christopher Reed.
Rock Solid, immensely entertaining based-on-fact account of Rudy Ruettiger (Astin), a working class boy intent on realizing his dream of playing football at Notre Dame- despite his uninspiring academic record, not to mention unimposing athletic ability.  Well acted, and a real crowd pleaser. (PG)

Questions!  Old questions, new questions!  Questions all around!

types of people I’m most jealous of- women who are married to the most wonderful men and who are totally taken care of by them!  I think ‘If I married a rich man and didn’t have to go to work, goodbye minimum wage job- hello soap operas and bon-bons!’  Ok, maybe I would still work, but only a couple days a week!

oh!  before I forget I think that Boozy guy or whatever the heck his name is is a total jerk for saying you look like a boy.  Anne, you do not look like a boy!!!  If I were you, I would have kicked him!

ok, onto the questions!

do we have any Christmas traditions?- not really.  In Christmases past we  would go to church and then visit the grandparents.  I think having a Christmas tradition is wonderful.  I intend to start one when I get married someday and pass it down to my children.

for christmas does my family get gifts for everyone or draw names?- I only get gifts for my parents and Danielle and vice versa.

when I was a kid, did I ever mispronounce words?- I can’t really recall.  If I think of something, I’ll mention it.

movie- October Sky
tv show- Who’s Line Is It Anyway?
cd- Dixie Chicks-Fly

funny moment- in Married With Children, it was Christmas eve and Al was getting ready to close the shoe store so he could get to the bank before it closed.  He had to take out money to buy gifts for Peg, Bud and Kelly.  Anyway, he was just about to lock up when this woman in her 60’s wanted to come in to buy a pair of shoes.  Al let her in, but stressed she had to be quick because he had somewhere to go.  She said "Oh, we won’t be but a minute" and Al says "We?" and the woman looks behind her and says "Ma!" and this little old lady comes in, walking at a turtle’s pace.  The clock shows its like, fifteen minutes later and the first lady says "Now, did you say fifteen ninety-nine (or whatever)?" and Al, obviously ready to choke her says, "Yes! Please hurry!" The woman reaches in her purse and says "I don’t have the money."  She turns to the little old lady who says "I don’t have any money!"  Al, who is ready to blow a gasket demands, "Well, who has it?!"  And the little old lady looks behind her and yells "MA!"

new questions!

are you one to forgive and forget or do you hold a grudge?- I can hold a grudge.  My motto is- once you’re on my sh*^  list, you’re on it for the rest of your life, unless you do some serious ass kissing!  I know I should be more forgivable, but its really tough for me to just let bygones be bygones if someone intentionally hurt me.

dream wedding- a medieval wedding in a castle in Ireland.  Yeah, I know i would have to be super rich- but I did say dream wedding!

Would you rather get one big gift or a bunch of little gifts (for Christmas, birthday etc)?  A bunch of little.

would you rather work at a crappy job but with fantastic pay or a job you love with a mediocre pay?- The job I love. 

If you’re eating out or go through the drive thru and something is wrong with your order, do you point it out or do you just keep quiet and eat it?- If its nothing major, Ill keep quiet.  I know how it feels when a customer complains to me about something and I don’t want the waitress or whoever to be annoyed at me!

do you know how to hula-hoop?- no

play jacks?- I did a long time ago, but I forgot how.

play hopscotch?- ditto

ever have/had a Nintendo?- yep

if yes- favorite games?- Super Mario 1, 2, 3 and Tetris.

have you ever been on tv?  Yes.  When I was in sixth grade I was in the school choir and we were invited to sing on one of those local television masses they hold for shut-ins and elderly people.  A star is born!  "I’m ready for my close up, Mr. Demille!"

well, that’s about it for now.  Til next time, take care and God bless!
