Random Thoughts...

Some related to recent blog comments, others just floating in my crazy head.

1. Maternity pants when not pregnant probably aren't the most stylish thing to wear to a company function, Elka ;). Hahahaha...

2. I have enjoyed walking with people. I'm glad that I have found several people with whom to walk during the week :).

3. Sometimes my life isn't very vanilla, it's true. And so sometimes, saying it is is actually very tongue-in-cheek.

4. Sometimes I type faster than I think. Expect typos that go uncorrected. Dad :). Oops. So I meant that I think faster than I type. My dad has informed me that what I wrote was wrong.

5. Coraline was a creep-tastic movie that would have given me nightmares if I had seen it as a child. I don't recommend it. However, I do recommend Race to Witch Mountain.

6. The "tin can" a.k.a. the file room at work has been dubbed "The Music Box." Currently it's broken, since I'm not out there enough to produce it's music ;). I've told them I will sing karaoke for them one of these days. In the meantime, I think they are trying to catch me out there singing. If I ever get a computer out there and can stay out there working on the files instead of going back and forth, I'm pretty sure more people will catch me singing. And somehow, that doesn't really make me want to stop singing. You must be right, Elka: it's genetic.

7. I'm seriously thinking I need to find a credit card that offers frequent flyer miles...

8. Because I'm considering buying yet another ticket to the Southeast for July. Of course, I would need to do that soon so I don't get charged a lot. But the reason is that I've kind of wanted to go to the Canal Zone reunion for years that takes place in Orlando. And I just never did it. And now a girl I knew from Panama (Emily -- who I saw in Atlanta last year) is thinking about going down for the 10 year high school reunion (ugh... I'm OLD), and asked if I'd ever thought of it... And though I didn't graduate from BHS, I would've, and I went to school with those people for my whole school life up until my Senior year. So, why not? Of course, this is still in consideration phase, since I kind of need to pay off my credit card. And let's not forget I have to go to Birmingham in October for April's wedding. So yeah... frequent flyer miles would be a good thing.

9. I'm thirsty. So, I'm going to get a drink of water. And then I'm finally going to watch last week's episode of Lost.

10. I don't like that Washington State is so many hours behind Florida and Alabama. It really disrupts things :). It didn't feel like such a big difference when I was living in Alabama and calling Washington. Now, though... Things are quite reversed.

Katherine Ronachert said...

the big question pertaining to our genetic malfunction is, can we sing on key??? or have we inherited that from a certain someone as well???

Nilla said...

I don't know... I've been told I am not half-bad. And so, I take that that I can at least hold a note and carry a tune :).

Katherine Ronachert said...

thank you! you are truly one of the greats in this world!

Katherine Ronachert said...

ps, i have ants in my pants, literally!

Nilla said...

Also yeah... I do need to go see you in OK for a while. What is up with my travelling self? Crap-ola indeed. What was I thinking movie out to WA where I can't get anywhere I want to go without flying! Hahahaha.

Katherine Ronachert said...

hmm. i've gotten that ewww..
maybe i'm borderline. kind of like my mental state!
i should go to bed!

Nilla said...

And why do I keep making typos in my blog comments? Oh well.

Katherine Ronachert said...

wow! people are going to look at your comments and be like, "nilla is popular!" then when they open it, say "oh it's only that weird elka"

Nilla said...

That's okay. I can feel popular for like a split second before they realize it's my nutty cousin ;). Hahaha... No, this has been so fun!!! Love it when we're both here at the same time... So close, yet so far away... ;).

Katherine Ronachert said...

also, i expect you to participate in my poll... i'm developing a theory!

Nilla said...

Ummm... I thought I did vote on the hair color poll. There was one vote when I went there. So if there's still only one, then it didn't count mine.

Elizabeth said...

The Wedding Singer...

juliebean said...

juliebean said...

this was funny! Another trip to orlando? too fun!! Hey, Elka, you need to leave me 24 comments one day.........

jessica said...

Sounds like, "The Wedding Singer"... and I know how you feel. It was rough seeing my 10 year reunion come and go last year. I'm NOT ready to turn 20:) I know someday when I'm 80, I will be wishing I was only 29.

Katherine Ronachert said...

i still have a present for you!
