A Day in the life of Your Princess AND Happy HNT!!!

So, of course, since i've only slept 9 hours since monday, and seeing as now it's Thursday, I thought i'd give you a little insight into my day....if it can make me laugh, I'm hoping it can do the same for you.

I blah blah blah on the phone all night...there's somewhat of a "mior dispute" going on between two people in my life right now, and i'm directly stuck in the middle. Both sides are constantly insulting the other, and i'm stuck defending BOTH parties. Regardless...it is starting to wear on my LAST nerve, as i have been so stressed about it, I havent slept since Monday. They both know that i like to make everyone happy, and since their intentions conflict directly, I cant make them both happy, ONE of them has to lose, and one of them will be pissed off at me. So i'm trying to avoid this, and I go ALL night, back and forth between them, one phone call to the other......They BOTH want to be the person who gets to say good night to me...One has worked for that priveldge, and the other, who thinks that they can just take it....and is trying DESPERATELY to be that person at any cost.

So I get up, after countless hours of NOT sleeping, and not doing my readings, becuase lets face it after nights of sleepless struggle, my eyes are a little wonky, and I cant see all that straight. Forgive any typos....and I head to class.

Luckily the last couple of days havent been ALL that stressful lecture wise, calssroom movies have been a blessing in disguise this week as I have had to only HALF pay attention. I go to one of my sociology classes, and as the prof is lecturing on Durkheims Anomie theory, a man in a full chicken suit, comes barreling through the doors of the lecture hall, runs straight up the middle of 500 people, and out the door at the back. I dont know...when It comes to things like this, I dont ask questions.

I go to my next class.....Cultural anthropology......and being the absolute personable lovely that I am, have made a cute little 18 year old friend. So she's asking about how my week has been and how the debate of east and west canada is going. *these 2 people in my life that are making me want to join a convent*....and blah blah blah....shes all caught up. I'm ALSO telling her that another friend of mine has bought the first season of Fraggle Rock on DVD....and do you know what she says??? "Whats Fraggle Rock?"...To which I slap my hands over my face and respond "Oh my god, i'm so old"......

She doesnt know ANY of the good shows....and has NEVER heard of the Gummi Bears...poor girl.

At last class is over. I'm on my way home, and becuase I never BUY milk, when I do, I always forget to check the expiry date....so I always end up getting milk that is 2 days away from the expiry date...as is the case presently. I'm walking home from class, and I think to myself...Self, what am I going to do with all that milk?.....To which the voice in my head, the one Natalia refers to as "The BAD Self" says...Lets go home and make chocolate pudding in the blender.

Well....ALLOW ME TO INFORM YOU....you CANNOT make chocolate pudding in the blender, and if you ever try to disprove this....PLEASE make sure the lid on your blender is closed.

I turn the blender on, and walk away, because with a hand mixer, it takes like 5 mintues, and I figure with a blender....Same time. So I take off for 5 mintues, except when I start to make my way back to the kitchen.....It's like something out of the funniest, and most horrifying "funniest home video's" youve ever seen.....

And becuase I was so tired....I sat down and cried.

Maybe this weekend will prove to be better.....but if it isnt, be asured, you will be the first to hear about it.


Amidst later recollection, I decided on adding this picture, EVERYONE needs a little love in their lives sometime...Happy HNT people....

I am outraged for you that your friends are putting you in the middle. Isn't that against friend code?

Lindsey said...

"Gummi Bears, bouncing here and there and everywhere. High adventures that are beyond compare...they are the Gummi Bears..." I love all 80's cartoons. I'm collecting them on DVD as they come out.

Your friends need to chill the hell out and realize what they are doing to you. I wouldn't blame you if you stopped talking to both of them.

I'm sorry it's been such a shitty week. Hope you feel better...

....It makes me grouchy....

Berley, if you're outraged....you cant even BEGIN to imagine how grouchy this makes me

Linny...LOL...I needed that laugh girl. I didnt realize that there were that many 80s tv shows on DVD

Whats HNT?

I like this post. Its kind of pulp fictiony. The first para is of course about me and hernesto fighting over who gets to protect you from the bugs.

Anyway, in US they dont sell us expired milk in a store. I guess we win.

Here is a bad joke thaT I hope you will forgive me for. Just trying to make you smile.

How do you spell Canada?
CND!
How's that?
C eh N eh D eh!

hahahahahahahahaha. I laugh at it still. hahahahahaha!

Lindsey said...

Oh yes my friend, slowly but surely they are putting them on DVD. Currently available is:
He-man, Transformers, Thundercats, Jem, GI Joe, Fraggle Rock and I know some more are out but it's late and I can't think..

Px said...

it's got to be the muppets, although fraggle rock was so cool, the muppets rule
but then i'm very much a kids tv person, i love the cartoon network and disney channels
Linny, you are fast becoming an idol of mine...be warned
PP...chill baby, remember youcan always bug me about anything

Katie said...

I love the gummy bears and the muppets. I watched them all the time. How could no1 know about them. O my

I like to make people happy also but sometimes you cant please every1, so I'm with Linny. I would not talk to them till they worked it out with one another.

I've had the same thing happen to me when mentioning a childhood tv program. It is just sad. Even among people my own age I have trouble finding anyone who remembers my favorite program -- The Great Space Coaster. Anyone? Anyone at all? I loved that when I was a kid and now it is lost forever!

Also, I sympathize with your blender experience. I have killed 3 blenders in only a matter of a couple years by trying to get ...ummmm.... creative. Stick with it!

Yrautca - HNT = Half Nekkid Thursday....Its a load of fun....And YES, I get your Canada Joke....although it's unfunny. But it made me smile, and toll my eyes, and shake my head....

Hernesto - Oh get over it....its just lips.

Linny - I know theres' transformers, and I ALSO know that there's Jem on DVD...

PX - Chiil about what boy? I'm not bugging you at all....

Clairssa - LOL!!! I've HEARD that the English prefer Canada...but I suppose it's becuase we're still commonwealth, and didnt revolt against English rule for independance, and then basocally have so many years of political freedom, only to Elect fucking idiots, who screw up our country. LOL!!!!

Katie - I agree...i'm going to let my friends sort themselves out.

S.Subs - THE GREAT SPACE COASTER was my FAVORITE!!! NO ONE remembers The Great Gnu!!!! Oh god girl...you're awesome!!! Does anyone remember Jeremy the Bear???

I wonder how many "My favorite *80's TV shows as a child" posts this is going to spawn.....

Princess Pessimism said...

Hernesto...

Canadians say "Eh?"...Like as in, "that's cool eh?" After living in the states for some time, I relized the american obsession with saying Eh, as Ameicans say "Huh?"..."That's cool huh?"

Anyway its C Eh? N Eh? D Eh?

Anonymous said...

homigod, i totally have to get fraggled

Anonymous said...

oh, and I remember gary gnu... do you remember Willo the Wisp?

Not many people I know remember that one.

Muppets are my all-time fav. My boy had to order the old DVD set from Time Life in 2001 - and had to get them sent to a relative in the US because they wouldn't ship to Canada. I call that love!
