My New Favorite Song

This week it is Darling Nikki....
Those of you who have lived with me will attest to the fact that I will play songs endlessly on end till I find something new to entertain myself....

I have had a strange relationship with Prince... I was living in a cave and didn't know that he ever created anything risque....

Anyways... that is the song of the week....

Not that anyone cares...

Feel free to tell me what song you are hooked on...

Happy Day After Thanksgiving

So I had a nice week so far...
We had Thursday and Friday off... So I had 5 house guests join me for the week... Josh, Gaylen, Sierra, Tim, and of course Autumn... We had an amazing dinner... Stayed up watching movies for days, and passed out at regular intervals after overdosing on Turkey...
Then we even made turkey soup and had it for breakfast...
So that's it for now,
KC

473 Posts...

I saw that Evan was celebrating his 200th post the other day...
I am at 473.... Though most have lost interest and lack the time to write...

That number is a little off, since many of my entries are solid blocks of photos...
My last Comment back was in August...
Wait I just did a check and turns out that is about average....

But maybe at 500 I will do something special to recognize the monumental amount of my time that has been spent in front of a laptop, waiting for something.... And the joy of writing of course... ha

Autumn


Trivia Night

So I will sum up my funny story in as few words as possible to get back to work and back to sleep...
Autumn drug me out of the house as usual... To Trivia Night at Max's... Where a guy named Ward dresses in high suspended pants, a plaid shirt, equiped with pocket protector and repaired frames.... Bound with tape...
All in all it is a pretty interesting sight... I had the opportunity to talk with Ward about the origin of this event and he said it all came down to finding a way to get people to drink on a Tuesday.... That combined with the fact that it was a College town made the idea seem like it just might work....
He also mentioned his own personal love for trivia made it seem like a worthy and rewarding endevor....
Looking back on it now, he says he has definitely slicked his lust for trivia and now looks at the fact finding art as a bit of a chore....
So that is the background on the event...
So here we are, 4 to a team, with our bowls full of popcorn and pitchers in front of us, straining our ears to hear the latest clues and attempt to put names and artists to obscure clips of sound and beats....
It's a good time...
So I turn to my team mate and do the usual get to know you chit chat... This is a friend I have met before but realized I didnt know much about... So I go about my interview... Occassionally taking notes on the palm of my hand...
He mentioned school, his program, and major... So I wrote down "Tim: Smart Guy"
I mentioned how I dont come out much and can't handle more than two beers... He wrote down, "Kellyclare: Cheap Date"

So we went on with our evening, lost the trivia game to a spectacular degree as always and went off to get some sleep and prepare for the next day....

I awake to find I have blue ink all over my face and arms, an inevetable outcome that we joked about the night before....
Simple enough, we have all encountered similar dilemas... A little soap and no worries....
But apparently not the case today.... after endless scrubbing I am facing the same blue inscriptions I woke up to.... I finally give up and head to work, hoping no one will happen to notice the sloppy handwriting covering the majority of my palms...

Aparently no one noticed...
But I was cracking up thinking that Tim had to go through his whole day with my name and "Cheap date" on his arm... I bet that got some looks....

He later told me that for the most part he was met by jealous glances and that "Cheap Date" had melted into some unrecognisable phrase that resembled "Lap Dance" and that cracked me up too...
Hopefully my name washed away before anyone made the connection....

Good times....

Another Thrilling Day in the Gardner House

All be told I accomplished nothing today...
Just bought a book, and some CD's....
Got the new Feist... Was excited for about 5 minutes, and I'm over it...
But the remix disc was surprising and I am still working on it...
Basically it is the same CD that I already had, with a few extra beats that make it sound slightly like the Begee's Staying Alive.
So I guest I got what I was looking for with that purchase....

Excited about the short week ahead, not excited about resuming the grade thing....
I will get through it I know, but it is a pill...

Ok, maybe I will clean...
But more than likely not...
Back to bed.

Glad You Asked... This is what we do in our spare time.






Yes, I know you were all wondering if Autumn would fit in most overhead storage compartments... So we did an experiment of our own to dispell any question. When Autumn first took on her adventures with being an airline stuardess, I mentioned that her ability to physically demonstrate the size of luggage that would be allowed on the aircraft would be very handy... She can just curl up in a ball, with one arm free and point to the dimensions and weight.
