Are you being slothy?

On one of our toobing adventures, Mi-Mi started calling JC Sloth-Toes, and maybe rightly so. He does have toes that could be like a sloths. Somehow the word evolved though, and sloth has become "slothy", meaning to be sloth-like, which is exactly what JC is when he gets in the boat toob in my pool. I don't really know how to explain it to you. He's more like a monkey, and sloths don't really move very fast, but it's pretty darn funny to see the slothiness in action (oh, look, now it's an adjective). I'm taking this Primate Diversity class and I've decided that he's more like a Tarsier. His eyes are big and wide, and the toes and fingers are very similar, oh yea, and he's a little fuzzy, too:






















It also came out on the river, too, that my toes are sloth-like, but I keep mine up with pedicures, so they're not as slothy as JC's. Whatever, it's just funny to hear Mi-Mi screaming down the river for JC to keep his sloth toes away from her. I guess it actually upsets JC a little to be picked on about his feet, so he's taken to calling me E.T. because of my extra-terrestrial fingers, and he now points at me and says, "Oooouuuuch" all the time. I know, only funny to us, but it's definitely making me smile to think about it this morning.

This will probably be my last post of the week. Tonight is JC's regular day off so he'll be here hanging out with Gabby and me, and then tomorrow night we're going out. Probably for some karaoke, but the whole gang, except me, went last night, so maybe not. Saturday night we're going to see Mr. Incredible's band play at the Hangar. Their band actually broke up, but they have like two shows left, and since JC and I met at one of their shows (well, I guess technically we met before that, but the first time we hooked up was at one of their shows), we have to be at every single one left. Sunday we're going to the zoo. I have to do a project for my Primate Diversity class, so we're just making it into a date of sorts. I'll be sure to get pictures of Mr. Obi-Wan Kenobi standing next to his brother the Sloth.

Last night Mi-Mi, Lilo, Velma, Obi-Wan, Zorro, Princess Leah, the Toothfairy, and a whole bunch of other cape crusaders from Obi-Wan's restaurant went to our karaoke bar, where I guess Mi-Mi took it in to her hands to single handedly chew Princess Leah's ex-boyfriend out, and send him on his way. JC said he stood up because the guy threatened Mi-Mi, but she pushed him back down into his chair, and proceeded to take care of it all by herself. I'm not liking this whole new gang of karaoke people, or maybe I'm just jealous because I don't get to see Obi-Wan sing "Inside Out" by Eve 6. Mi-Mi and Mr. Incredible forbid him from doing it the last few times I went because he always does it, and then last night, they let him do it, and I wasn't there! Damn! I know it's a little weird for me to still call these new friends of mine by their character names from their job, and even my boyfriend, but if you were around them, and saw how much they resemble the people they pick to be, you'd freak out and think of them in costume all the time, too. Yesterday, Obi-Wan and I had to make a trip to the costume store so he could buy new spirit gum to glue in his braid for work. It's so surreal. And lately, Velma has been really into costumes and stuff (trying out new ones), and there's all this Halloween like stuff all over their apartment (JC's roommates are Velma and Ace Ventura, and what a weird combination that is to wake up to when you're hung over or still drunk!).

I'm just so anxious for this week to be over that I'm continuing on my rambling rampage without really saying too much. Plus, I have this whole new blog look (thanks again, Lisa), and I want to post all the time...I just have nothing "real" to say!

All Iced In

In case anyone has been watching the weather for the whole country...you will know that here in sunny San Antonio, we have been having some very out of the ordinary weather. We got iced in for the last two days. Not snowed in...It's all ice. Snow to the north, but all we got was freezing rain. I was cracking ice off my car with a wooden flip-flop keychain, seeing as how I don't own an ice chipper or whatever you call them, because this isn't usually a problem. Gabby got to have two ice days from school. I have spent the last almost 72 hours in my house, and I'm literally going crazy!!! I just had to get over to my mom's today so I could do something different for a change. The roads are much safter, but watch out for the ice flying off of cars! I'm not exaggerating at all when I say that a chunk of ice the size of a passenger side car window came hurling at me! It was kind of scary. Or the ice falling from the power lines...that's kind of scary, too. But, th...

Pretty Decent Weekend

I went out Friday night, and....I met someone. We really, really hit it off. I think some of you who know me really well would be shocked at how good looking he is. His name is Paul, he's 29, and he's only been in San Antonio for about a week. Anyway, we talked all night, I drank a little too much, and so did he, so the night didn't actually end that well because there was an argument between him and Andrea. I thought he was a little rude, and also maybe he would be scared off. But we were texting last night, and we're going to meet up next Friday. I really do think he should apologize to Andrea first though. Although, I'm so green with this dating thing...I almost think that's too much to ask when you're getting to know someone. I don't know, you tell me. Saturday I pretty much did nothing but recover. And then Sunday, Andrea, Gabby, and I went hiking. We did a Level 4 out of 5 trail for an hour and a half. I'm not sure how many miles it...

Last one for tonight, I PROMISE!!!

It's official...I've finally decided what it is...I think the background for my posts is too dark. I don't like the way pictures show up on it...I love the whole ocean/beach theme thing because it really fits me, but I think I need something sunny, brighter...I love the picture with the mermaid because it's all bright and stuff, and so is the sidebar, but the dark, navy-ish blue just isn't doing it for me. I don't like the way my posts "look"...I think it reminds me too much of my teenage angst years, when at 14 or 15 I turned everything in my room into navy blue, and put up the darkest navy blue curtains...close enough to being black, it looked like I lived in a tomb, and I couldn't stand it after awhile...It actually contributed to my depression. That's why now, I don't even have curtains...I would much rather have the morning sun come blaring through my windows...That's what I need here...I've figured it out...
