Still Alive and Kicking

2008-11-09T06:44:00.001-08:00

Do people still read these?

No really, I feel as if, yup it's been 8 months since I have even visited this blog. That is a long time. I for some reason have lost the desire to blog my everyday events. So I guess i'll give u a 30 sec rundown of my life.

In june, I made the plunge. Which? I moved out! It's great. I am really enjoying being a "cellar dweller". I am at the bea's nest as it's been called. And or apt 1 of noni's house. RI will always be in my heart, but I guess I am CT girl now, well not according to my license plate haha.

Still pioneering, round 6, yeah that's right. Can you believe it? Nor can I ? It still has that new car smell, although mine doesn't. (prob should clean my car) Oh and Joe K is on the list today, which is very excellent. Shout out to King Nick as well who joined.

Speaking of, my parents are leaving next week for indo for 4.5 months. Holy Cow ! I'll be an orphan, well kind of. But i'm planning on making a small detour in feb to see them. After of course another visit to the OC. Ya I said it. Orange County has yet to see the last of me.

Still working at Verizon, still cleaning houses. So thats it. Oh and a few people got married, a few more had anniversary's oh and a ton more had kids, a real lot had kids in fact. That's it my blog buddies. Maybe again you'll hear from me, but prob not soon. I'll leave u with some pix of things that have happened. Oh and check out the new pix site. Jordankspix

You know you love me,
xoxo

Just so you know..

2008-03-26T13:24:00.000-07:00

I posted all my pictures from my 24 day adventure on my shutterfly.

I have so many stories, but so little time. I'm home in RI, getting ready to move, working, and well just catching up on life. More to come soon.

I'm Freaking Out !

2008-02-04T21:23:00.001-08:00

Why?
I leave in a day for California, Hong Kong, Singapore, Batam Indonesia, Bali Indonesia.

Ah so like I said freak out. Joe and Cheryl K have been over their already for 2.5 weeks. Were actually going to cross paths in the air. Which means i'm going to fly over them and or versa vice. So what has been going on?

Well working like crazy. I've been trying to save as much money as possible before I leave. I also have been trying to catch up on service (yeah thatll happen). I've been snowboarding a couple of times up to Vermont. And of course to sugarbush! Thank u bruce and kate. I also took my parents down to Jfk to leave. Spent some time in china town with justine, then flew up to patterson. It was nice to see alex and have lunch / a spanish tour. Holla at mary-luz and the other jersey girls for coming to visit.

Azu was so awesome. Thank u so much to all the ladies who came out for my last dinner. And of course the outstanding after party. Super bowl was a lot of fun. Too bad the pats blew it. I'm still sick to my stomach thinking about it.

Tomorrow is cleaning, then meeting with co. Then Wednesday i'm outta here. My plan is fly to cali for about 8 hrs, hopefully meet up with corto. Then get on a plane fly to hong kong. Then another plane fly to singapore. Then a taxi to Harbor. Then a ferry to batam, indonesia to stay with tk. Phew i'm tired just thinking about it. 2 Days later, i'm at my destination. I'm not going to actually get there till Friday afternoon.

Ok back to packing. I've been posting all of my pictures at Jordan's Shutterfly Photos.
Hopefully if all goes well, I will be able to update my blog and add pictures to my album from overseas. So check back again.

Love you all see you in a month.
~jk~

So This Is The New Year . . .

2008-01-02T09:38:00.001-08:00

and I don't feel any different. -death cab for cutie-

I always feel like when it's a new year that's a good song to listen to. Any who it's 2008 and ain't life great? bahh. My 2008 has started out pretty much how every other year has, i'm home with a sinus infection haha. I did have grand plans for myself involving a fireplace, chair lift, and hot ta tee's. But I takes what I can get.

Ok so the week of thanksgiving, or should I say thanksgiving I went ice skating in prov. It was super warm out I think around 60F, so the ice was kinda melty. I was trying to be fancy and bust out my Bryan Boitano moves, yeah I said it Bryan Boitano, but the fell a little. The fall itself did not hurt it was the fact that the center of the ice was a small pond so I just slide for a couple of feet, got up and shook it off. Of course to everyone else on the ice... I peed myself. My pants were pretty soaked. Oh well. Then wandered pretty much through the entire city looking for a place to eat. Note to self : Diners in coventry are the only places to eat on holidays. Good eye kanye we found it.

Black Friday was then upon us. It was also the same day as sarah and caleb's wedding. I worked in the morning and experienced utter consumer chaos demanding cell phones and remote car starters as well as "whats on sale"? Nothing is on sale, go away so I can eat lunch you savages! Wedding was a lot of fun. Congrats to the couple. I had a fun car group and pre-party which made it that much better. The yacht club looked really good. Ive been their a lot over the years for weddings and showers, but this was prob the nicest I've ever seen it. Tons of food, cup cake cake (yeah that's what it was a cup cake wedding cake), and beverages of course. Then I danced a bit and went home.

Sunday the 30th of November went up to Jimney Peak in Ma for 1st season ride. I was rocking my new burton ginger 137cm board. She's a beut. I'm so happy I bought it. Conditions were really good
for early season. Not a lot of trails open, but enough to get a full day in. In the picture I'm holding a giant snowball. I think we invented a new winter game. Basically you take a big snowball one person starts at the top of the mountain and you pass it while moving. And see how big it is when you get to the bottom, because people of course drop it. It was a lot of fun, although super super dangerous. None of us crashed though, thank goodness.

Service has been ok. It's been tough because it gets dark by 4:15 so it's tough to stay out and or get people to stay out when it's dark. Not only that but between black ice and snow storms it's very dangerous believe it or not. I'll tell you why it's dangerous in the next section.

December 6th was Joe and Cheryl k's 32nd anniversary. Aww so nice. I got my mom some stuff for her trip, and Joe k has been really wanting a car starter for those wonderful winter mornings. The next week (2nd week of December) We got our first snow storm. So what did i do? I was at work and was sent home early....so I went snowboarding, but of course. Me and Trev went to yagoow, yup I have enough pride to say I went to the good Ol valley of yagoow. Getting there, that was another story. The roads were horrible. The old saab couldn't get up 3 different hills that I had to take detours around. But once we go there, wow I love powder. It was like riding on pure fluff. I actually went off a jump once and messed up the landing and simply hit the ground, and it felt like jumping in my bed. It was fun till I smashed my pinkie on the chairlift. I didn't break it or anything just bruised the joint, or that's what Dr. Brown said. I just kept it rapped for a couple of days, it's ok now.

So that dangerous story I referred to before. The week of Christmas I go into work one morning and find that my boss was at the hospital. He was walking in front of our store that morning going to the laundry mat and slipped on the ice on the ground and broke his leg. In fact he cracked the the bone, so that he needed a ten inch metal plate put in ewww. I felt so horrible for him. It also served as a warning to be super careful on ice. And it was tough too because our store was so slammed. And we were a man down. Poor Craig is home recouping.

Christmas. I went to Okemo, Vt for some snowboarding. Miss Bria arranged a big group to go boarding, and I guess 2 other jw's had gotten groups together so the lodge was packed. Okemo is a good sized mountain that had 109 trails open. It was just fun seeing so many different people and riding with different groups all day. I got to go to board park at the end of the day and hit a fun box. Ugh and did my first Double Diamond (I peed a little). A couple of kids got pretty banged up though. One guy broke 1 if not two of his legs on a jump. Nicole's brother grant got a black eye. And poor Emily F collided with some obnoxious old man who thought he could snowboard. But everyone was ok, and surprisingly I sustained no injuries, at least this weekend. But have no fear, the season has just begun....

Oh and all these last pictures were brought to you by my super sweet new Panasonic 7.3mp 6x digital camera (heck yes).

So Long

2007-11-18T07:22:00.000-08:00

That's how long it's been since I updated.

Someone actually asked me the other day, remember when you used to have that blog thing that was funny. I'm thinking remember, I still have it. Wait do I? Well I never update it and no one reads it, ok so maybe I don't. So then I started to read it, and some of these things don't even make sense to me, you guys really should have told me how little sense I make.

I took my calender down to figure out what I've been doing. In my last entry I was referring to my next weekend. Which was an end of summer BBQ in westerly. The best part about it besides lots o food and people was the jousting. There was this giant inflatable kiddie jumpy room thing. Then after the kiddies went home there was these giant Q tips that the adults put in their hands and battle to the death, or till someone passed out. I played a lot, of course. The battle of the century or in this case was me vs meri. It was tied up 4-4. She hit me and I was going down, so like the coward I am I figured hey fall forward towards her and knock her off. Well when I did she hit me in the air, and I landed with my backside on her wooden platform. Let me tell you, I have experienced pain in my life, but this my friends, pain would have said owww man that hurts. lol. Let's just say this the bruise was unreal, and I still to this day, have pain when I sit down. CK said it's my own fault for being a 22 yr old kid. What can I say, shes always right.

Autumn tis the season for corn mazes and hiking. The next weekend I went up to Johnston to a corn maze. It was pretty much amazing. I think 4 acres. Me and LD got incredibly lost, till the point I said lets do this, and ran through a couple of walls of corn. In which "the man", some guy working there caught us and tried to kick us out, but he did not. Sorry my bad. After that went down the road and watched the sox in the playoffs...they lost. But it was 13 innings and I stayed and watched the whole thing. And I danced a little, nothing says baseball and corn mazes like dancing in someones living room. The next day I took a coma nap.

Good News I turned 22. I don't know why that's good news, like someone said to me oh your 22, one year closer to death. Hmm I think I'll go put my head in the freezer now.

Oct 20Th was our special day assembly. Don't ask me what is was called or about....ha. No actually it was about the master potter and being molded like clay. Good Stuff. And we had some baptized which is great news (i love the cheetah baby). After assembly went with shelia to a 25Th anniversary party. It was a lot of fun, although I don't think I'm a prime rib fan. Congrats to Mark and Lisa. Ps next time you have a 25Th party, don't let Joe K be the MC, cause then no one will get to eat and the salads will get cold, and the ice cream cake melts.

Next weekend the 27Th was sarah vajj's wedding shower. It was at the sisk's beautiful house. Good little sandwiches. Then I stayed to watch I think it was game 3 of the world series. Sox won, of course. Sunday went to six flags. I had free tickets, so I had to take advantage of that. Parking is 20 bucks, what is wrong with this world? But as a kittrick I talked some form of goodness, and got out of that (please keep comments to yourself) RED SOX WIN WORLD SERIES. Stopped in Hartford to see phil k's place and caught the end of the game. A sweep, I still can't believe it but I'm so happy, and want to learn the pappalbon dance.

The weekend of Nov 3 I went up to woodbury to alex d's hall. Cute little circa 70's building. A sister in his hall owns a horse farm, she trains and boards for people. So we got to go riding and help her with feeding, watering, etc etc. I very much enjoy horse back riding, it's been a while. English style saddle is quite the experience, I def was feeling that the next day haha.

The next week cortopassi came to visit! Which is always a good time. I picked her up at the airport on Tues night after the bookstudy. The best thing about it is that she didn't tell anyone that she was visiting. So we spent wed going to peoples work or houses being like hey whats up, bamm. Although there were a couple of confused looks, what are you doing at my house jordan....OH SARAH IM SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU. Mmmm hmm, but not so happy to see me, what's that about? j/k.

Saturday the 1oth went up to providence for a festival of sorts, that was fun then went out afterwards. (do you love the vagueness of that?) I will say this I learned the soljya boy dance. If you don't know what it is, look it up on you tube. I heard I was a hit, I'm just glad I didn't hit anyone with my awesome moves. Tuesday had a last dinner with corto at aphy's then watch Disturbia. I heart shia lepoooof, or whatever his name is that is a great movie. Wed brought Sarah to the airport *tear*, I'll see you in Feb. Then hightailed it home to meet the service group. Saturday the 18Th (last night) went to prov again for ice skating. But somebody didn't check the right dates, the rink open on Monday not Saturday. So ended up walking around thayer st, and the mall, although it was a solid 25F. Glad I worn the down vest.

Hoooray were finally up to date. This week is thanksgiving, I am thankful, for not having to work lol. Next day is black Friday and vajj is getting married, my how time fly's. And i'm house sitting for two people this weekend on top of that, let the chaos begins. I'll let you guys know how that goes, mmm in about 2 months when I write again. Ta Tah

Happy 2 years...

2007-09-20T20:44:00.000-07:00

to me.

Folks it has been 2 years since I started posting nonsense about useless things in my life.
And for the past 2 years you have been hanging on every word. So thanks for sticking with it. And maybe here is to another 2 years. That is of course if the computers haven't taken over and have turned us into cyborgs. So if were not cyborgs, i'll see you again in another 2 years. ~peace out~

Ha just kidding.

Wow, so much has happend since last posting end of july. The biggest reason why I have not posted is because I spent the month of August in service. No really. I ate, slept, preached, and went to the bathroom a couple of times. I did my usual..... Which was got myself behind on my service year. For those of you who don't know 840 hours is needed in a service year. As of August 1st I had 743 hrs. Math skill will tell u that 97 hours were needed. whoa. And I always like to try to hit more then that. And I am very happy to say with the support of many, lots of coffee, soup, and praying I made my time. I actual got over. This was a huge accomplishment and I am so happy I was able to do it again. So thanks to everyone out their who supported, I couldn't have done it without u.

In the meantime of all that. Phil k got married. Congrats to deann and phil. Now I can officially say wedding season is over. And what a busy one it was. Phil's wedding was also the same weekend as the west hartfort qb. So I was able to go one day and help out the sound crew with some wiring (if only there were more hours in a day).

Tommyk came to visit. I have not seen my brother or really spoken to him in almost a year. So this was a nice treat. Also the weekend tom came down my aunt and cousins came in from upstate ny to visit. Also another treat because I do not get to see them often or in this case I met baby grace for the first time. Tom and I went to Nh to contact some indonesians in service. I worked with the english hall and met some nice people while tom and mr justin gaines talked to them. We then went to spicy dave restaurant. I got to experience indonesian food for the first time, neat. I had the coolest thing an avacado smoothie? I know sounds weird, ney. It is delicious. So after a nice weekend with fam, tom went home, which I guess is asia and the other fam returned to ny.

August (18th) also brought salsa weekend. It's a big festival in prov part of waterfire. It is always a good time, and yes it was. So many people from all over the place were visiting. It was nice to meet up with the noho/spring/west mass girls. Went to trinity brew house mmmm. Then danced my little gringa heart out.

August (sundays) also brought kayaking and hiking. Care of miss nanny hassord, who loves to get me lost in the woods. One particular adventure involved a group of 10 being lost in the woods with nothing but a small flashlight and my cell phone in the pitch dark = not cool. Although the exercise was nice. But being chased by a fishercat was not. (later i realized it was my dog reba) I don't want to talk about it.

September! So happy to see it. I took a couple of days off in august once my time was completed, one beach day. Or should i call it a jordan sunburn day. Then it happend. I got a cold. Are you really surprised? So that's what i've been doing for the past two weeks, trying to beat that. It's finally leaving me, although I think it wishes it could stay another week.

We had the visit of mr roussin our sub co. Nice nice. It was a very encouraging visit, esp with the edition of a (maybe) but (prob) four new pioneers. The groups have been really good and it seems like everyone is in really good spirits. So that has been my life. 2 years of blogging, a lot of service, some fun stuff, some not so fun stuff, and a new service year and hope's for a summer off, the key their is hopes lol.

Oh and last but certainly not least. I'm planning my winter trip to indo to seem tom. I just purchased tickets to get me as far as cali. Perhaps a short detour to see miss corto, and then off to the orient. But don't worry I will blog the heck outta that vacation.

This weekend.......well you'll have to wait and read. C ya

3 Minute Update

2007-07-30T16:34:00.000-07:00

Here's a 3 minute update....

Have been very busy as always. Trying to finish my time for the year. Right now I need about 104 for the year, but i'm really going to push and get it. Socially: hmm. Went to flacos heard sugarfree play, so good. Went to waterfire featuring swing dancing, with new girl. Alex d went to bethel so mucho going away party's for him. Bri and Pete got married ! Then Sherri and Joe got married ! And this weekend phil and deanna will get married ! Wow, i'm almost wedding out. Tommyk is coming home next week for a couple of days. It's been a year since he's been gone, crazy.

Today: Just got home from service. Before that got home from the dis con. Wow I thought it would never get here, but yes it did. And it did not let me down. We had Tony Morris (gb) which made it that much better. And I got the new release, excited to read that. Last night after dis con stopped at nicoles for a body shop party. And boy do I smell delish.

Tonight: I'm home trying to unpack and get ready for another crazy week. And about to leave and go clean claw's. This week is going to be nuts between service, work, qb, and wedding stuff. Not to mention family coming in. Plus ugh it was 90F today.

**I would like to give a shout out to Sue. I don't remember your new last name. But I know your Nicole's mom. She said something to me last night about me writing about her on my blog, so guess what I am.**

Oh and I made a shutterfly account to post more pictures. The album I posted is Sherri and Joe's wedding. For now it's open to the public....until some freak screws it up. So please be responsible. So enjoy until then. www.jordank.shutterfly.com

That's it. Sorry for the messy posting but like I said 3 minutes. And even this took me 15 minutes. The topic pic is of me simponized! And the other is me and laura d at bri's wedding. hollar.

Q & A

2007-07-04T20:04:00.001-07:00

Q: Jordan where have you been?

A: Here, why did I miss you?

Q: No, no you didn't. Hey wait who's asking the questions here?

A: You, I thought?

Q: Yes I am. So why haven't you posted lately?

A: I don't know. It's summer and I've been busy.

Q: Well that's all I got.......thanks for clearing up, nothing.

Alrighty, now that that's over. Greetings to my internet friends and or supercomputers / government agency's reading this. So yes it has been a good 2 months without a posting. Rather then cover every mundane detail I figured just an overview would be good, that and yes I am ridiculously lazy when it comes to posting.

So I started a new job. Well new since last posting. Actually i've been there about 2 months now. Working at Auto Audio / Wireless zone... (cough) Verizon Wireless. I work for verizon will leave it at that. I enjoy it. Most of you who know me know I am a nerd and that I do enjoy a good cell phone to play with, so yes this job is perfect. Part time as always to keep up with the pioneering. Speaking of which. We've come to the home stretch. Now being July only less then 60 shopping days left till end of service year. So almost every mon-wed is dedicated to service (except today more on that later). That is my numero uno priority for the summer, making my time. Don't get me wrong making money and maybe even getting some form of a tan is on the list, however I have a commitment and by golly i'm going to try and make it. Thanks to jazz, ava bee, and their mommy's for working with me and even sharing their apples.

Besides working and service.....The usual summer picnics, gatherings, party's, weddings, clam bakes, bawn fires, scrabble meetings, chess club, guitar lessons, speech therapy, aa, whatever u call them. Speaking of weddings, lot's of people getting married. It's that season. I'm going to a wedding this weekend and another in a few weeks, then 3 weeks after that, another. haha. I am excited for all those going into matrimony..... It's just whoa, quite the season.

I have one more bill to pay off then after that hopefully i'll be purchasing a ticket to indo. My brother for those of u who are confused or don't know which country lives in indonesia. So hopefully early next year i'll be making a visit for a couple of weeks/ month. I also will make a special stop in cali to visit a special someone *wink* wink *.

Today is July 4th. And some kids and I went on a canoeing trip down the Ye old Wood River. I used my lovely necky kayak. The river run we did is about5.5 miles. It's long, tiring, and yes dirty. But it was fun. I had captain tyler riding in my cockpit directed me towards which duck to chase. There was this big duck or goose I don't know what he was following us. I called him quacky. When you get halfway down their is a dam that u have to take out at. He was their watching us with our boats. He followed Alex d and I across the street till we put back in. Then followed us into the water and began swimming down river with us ! My cousin even petted him. It was crazy. He got tired after a while and eventually stopped. But to think he followed us over a mile is nuts. Afterwards most everyone came over and we had pizza and beverages and well almost watched 007. A good day indeed, minus the rain which got everyone soaked but did feel good. And my arms as of now are made out of jello.

Q: Is this the end?

A: Yes, I have nothing left to write.

Q: When will you post again?

A: Hmm, prob in 2 weeks, or in 2 months, or in 2 years..

Q: Well thanks in advanced for nothing.

A: Of course, I wouldn't want to disappoint you.

Here and Back Again

2007-05-13T19:28:00.000-07:00

So not to rip off tommy k, but I thought this was a cool idea. Here's what i've been up to for the past 2 months. Or at least the highlights. Or at least the picture's I have. You guy's can guess where I was and what was going on. Until then enjoy !

No I didn't Die

2007-04-06T17:05:00.000-07:00

I know I promised to never go this long with out posting. But well... I did. A lot has been going on, but i've been to busy/tired to post.

So quickly. Cortopassi came to visit = Awesome. Circuit Assembly also very awesome. More snowboarding, but now it's spring so that's done. Lots and Lots of service. And picked up more work cleaning, so of course busy with that. Hopefully, I talked to Tk in indo we should be getting a shipment of drums in. Which would mean the jt drum our business will be off and running. www.thejtdrum.com So that's pretty much it, I know very chessy update. I'm expecting a very busy summer. A lot of people are getting married, and hopefully i'll be able to go to Cali one of these days. Not even any good pictures, I guess i'm loosing my touch.

Ps: Don't vote for Sanjaya. That's just not cool.

RI ->CT->MA->VT...... RI->CT->NY->NJ

2007-03-08T12:37:00.000-08:00

So yes, I have been doing quite a bit of traveling, but I guess that's the good thing about living in New England.

The weekend of the 24th, headed up to Sugarbush Mt for some snowboarding. But first stopped in E. Hartford to see the fam and meet phil k's new girlfriend, or significant other, whichever you prefer. Had dinner. Played wii. Ahh wii. If anyone out there want's to buy me something, a Nintendo wii, would be perfect, thank u. Watched sutherland bust out some fiddle skills then off to Springfield to a "Jungle Party". Ha when you think of jungle party, you think lots of decorations, funky clothes, and cool African music, or at least i do. Well this there were jungle decorations, a lot of jeans, and spanish music. Yes that's right. It reminded me of going to a house party's in willi, ct. But yes I heard, sauvemente, and yes I danced to it. So that was a really good time. Although it should have take me and alex D about 45 min from hartford. Took something like 2 hrs. Horrible horrible directions! You will be the death of me , mapquest. After that slept at brother williams house.

The next morning, Saturday she made us Choc O Chip pancakes mmmm. Then said our goodbyes and headed up to Vt. Got up there at like 6. After making a short detour to Killington, unfortunately not on purpose. Stayed with Bruce and Kate at there fabulous mountain side getaway. They got up there later, and we went and ate at the infamous "Hideaway" home of the one armed man, lol.

Got up Sunday and hit the mountain. It was a 10. Best conditions i've ever gone in. 3 ft of snow, no wind, powder, sunny, and not crowded. And not to toot my own horn, but I must say I boarded pretty stinkin well. Until, i hit my head, but that's another story. Went back to the condo watched the Oscar's and listened to Bruce's performanc in "Man fall's asleep during the oscar's", he shoulda won. Got up on monday said our goodbyes, and headed home. Monday got a nasty snowstorm here, and continued to have garbage weather. Tryed to finish up the month of service and failed miserably. Helllllo month of August my dear friend.

The Following friday, March 2nd, headed down to Jersey City to visit my old Pale Stanley. Got stuck at 10:30 in traffic on cross bronx expressway. What a shocker, traffic in nyc? Stayed at Lady's house in Jersey City. Got up kinda late on saturday. Didn't get to bed till 3, my bad. Went to work weekend just in time to have lunch ! Then met up with my crew. Got a huge assignment. Basically in a nutshell, I had to run 3 different cables (coaxRG-6, cat5, and power), across half the cafeteria down the hall into the boiler room. Fortunatly Lady helped. It was a dirty job, but mike rowe was not there to do it. lol. After finished work, went out and got authentica spanish, and then fell asleep. exausted.

Sunday. Got there earlier. Hooray. Did similar work on sunday. Ran more cable across the annex section. I found out they'll be using it so that whoever is watching the coat room during District Convention's can watch the program. So that's exciting. Finished early, went to lady's got primped then headed back to the theatre. In which I witnessed a homeless man peeing on the side of the building. It was actually pretty funny. I was about to ask him to let me in thinking he was a caretaker, but he fooled me, then walked away with this smirk on his face. GROSS. Went out to dinner with mary and leslie. Fun fun. Then went back to Mattykins apartment, playedgeetar, genesis, and swing danced. Go figure. Left way too late at 11pm. Got home around 1:20 made great time.

This week has been crawling by. There's a bug going around surprise surprise, i prob got it from my mom. So been home a lot resting and wasting time. Today, thurday my mom left for a quilting extravaganza in Minnesota, haha. And tomorrow..... Cortopassi's here. It's about time! And also tomorrow is pioneer sem, and this weekend is our circuit. So busy busy busy am i. And yes another weekend not home.

Such A Cold December...

New England is crazy!

As far as the weather at least, I have no excuse for the people. And yes I know, it's not December. It's a song I was listening to by Matt Costa, but it describes New England to a T. We go from almost 70F in January, straight to 18F. It really is amazing. I'll will miss you jacketless day's, no tights, no socks, no shorts under my skirts in service *sigh*. So wow a month without blogging, i'm sure something interesting must have happened...no it didn't.

After the wedding extravaganza, everything pretty much went back to normal. Took a day and a half to sleep, no lie monday Januaray 8th I slept a good 13 hours, dang. A lot of service and work as normal. Saturday Jan 20th went snowboarding for the first time this year at Wah Wah. I heart night boarding. But omg, it was so cold. We checked, at the top of the peak it was -10F. I had so many layers on, when you go on the lift they were making snow disaster! I had to hold my hands over my face, thank goodness you had snot to keep you warm. eww but true.

Vajj was busting out her new skill on the mt. I have to be honest, I left her on the mountain. I'm Sorry ! Call me selfish, but if you were that cold and you had to keep stopping for someone, it's every women for themselves. Plus that's why we have boyfriends..lol. Then went to the lodge to drink hott ta-tes, and listened to this really cool reggae band called " Roots of Creation" really impressed with that. Sunday the 21st I went to Bedford with vajj and K. That place is like little Portugal, but fun nonetheless. Watched the Pats Game with Jeremy and ate lots of pasta. Then went over mel's for a bit, then came home and had a sleepover, hahah.

On January 27th, there was a house warming for the Huckstables. I had been staying at there house while they were in Mexico. They got new curtains, which I know is cheesy but very exciting. They had a sheet. And it wasn't even a nice sheet, it was a sheet held up by thumb tacks. The next day went to a jewelry thing at Aphten's then out to Flaco's for diarrhea and drinks, I mean dinner, whoops my mistake?

In the mean time, Joe K left to go visit Tk in Asia, he was gone for 2 weeks. It was sad to have him gone for so long. But a special chance for cheryl k and I to bond? Actually we kinda did. I know I know what your thinking. But it was nice we had dinner together every night. Which is always ok in my book. For those of you who don't know, and again why are you reading this but.., My brother tom moved to Batam, Indonesia. And my father and him just co-signed a lease on a 3 bedroom-2 bath, condo on Batam. (batam is an island bordering singapore and malaysia). My dad went to see Tom and check out the condo, and they went to a Special Assembly in Jakarta, which at the same time was going through massive flooding. It's always an excellent feeling to turn on CNN and see "More Flooding in Jakarta" 2,000 people die. No ok, that was an exaggeration, I think actually very few causality's. But to know that your family is over-seas in a situation like that, well not cool. But anyways, hes back safe and sound. He brought me back gifts too, including "Dream Girls" on dvd. Gotta love asian technology ! I'll post some pictures of the condo, if I ever find them.

Superbowl was Sunday January 4th. Although as usual I would have rather watched the Puppy Bowl, and yes I did. Went over PP tights. Played guitar and ate more food then should be consumed in one sitting. Then stayed up ridiculously late to play wii and dance to excellent hip hop music. And to those of you wondering, Yes Gilda did bust out the butterfly Pancho', man I wish I had a pic of that.

The week of the 5th-11th we had Co's visit. It's always a good time to be around. Great talk's, Great Service support? Well you know. I went over nonnie's on Thursday and had lunch with them, it's always funny hearing about the "old day's" you know before electricity and trains. Friday night I went up to NoHo to see Jonasty and Mcgurn play at some Dive. It was a fun time. They both played excellent, and for 3 hours, whoa. It was nice seeing all that group, it has been a while indeed. Then stayed at the Jonas and Vee B&B, that place is really neat. And I shared a bed with Aud who insisted we sleep head to toe haha, I think that was the best part of the day. Woke up early on saturday drove back home to make in time from our pioneer meeting at 12:15. I'm so happy I made it back for it. It was one of the best i've been too, and it's always nice to get his viewpoint on things going on.

Sunday last day. I'm gonna miss you crispycream. See you next visit. After the meeting went ice skateing. Ohh so fun. Till I fell and broke myself. I gotta get used to my new skates. Jasamine was hysterical. She has little kids size K12 skates. Instead she just ran across the ice on boots and her giant snow suit. Very funny. After, the hazerdous family and I went to Bail village. Mmm.
So that's over a month of Jordan k' goodness. Enjoy. And I promise never again this long without posting, scout's honor.

W e d d i n g Mega Blog Edition

2007-01-22T08:37:00.000-08:00

So yes, I am lazy.

But it has been a very busy couple of weeks since then. But now the wedding review. And oh for the rumor that there is a "secret" blog. It's probably true. Let us begin our story in the Kittrick Home:

Friday night the 5th of December. Getting final things ready, packing, showering, eating gross soup and off to the Biltmore in Providence for rehearsal and dinner. Practiced everything we were gonna do in the ceremony, go to see the "garden room", and met up with the groomsmen, none of whom I had seen in months. The room was really nice, with gorgeous chandelier's. The groomsmen on the other hand, not so much. Moving on...

Walked down the street to a pub for dinner. I wanna say it was called Smith's but i'm probably lyeing. It was right across the street from Lupos, which was also where my car was parked. I decided to live on the edge and park my car on the street in providence, because I found out that it was gonna cost 22 Snack Wraps a night to park at the hotel. So I payed a homeless guy 2 bucks to watch my car, he also held my hand, it was kinda weird.

So we go into the pub and they have a backroom that was all our's with our own pool table and buffet. Good Idea. The seating arrangement I liken to the bibical event of the parting of the red sea. You had the Floridians and company on one side. Empty table in the middle. Then Local's and malek's on the other side. No one dare cross the middle zone. Yes, awkward my friends. But then the wedding party made up of both side's filled in the middle and it got better. Then we all ate and had beverages and it got a lot better. And by the end of the night both side's were exchanging pleasant banter. ha.

Myself, and my dear Marlene. Bounded. haha. Told story's and giggled a lot. Then after that walked down to Trinity Brewhouse mmmm, and met up with some friends for more banter. Then walked back to the Biltmore and went up to our Presidental Suite. Yup, we shared with the bride to be, and made of honor. More giggling then bed around 2:45 am.

The next morning began at 7:30 with the craps. Maybe it was nerves, or it coulda been the kielbasa that was purchased on the street, nonetheless there it was. Walked upstairs to the Ballroom, where the reception would take place and began to decorate. Then hair dresser extrodinar Spence came to do our hair in the room. So by idk 10:30-11 I was primped and good to go. Went back to the ballroom and helped decorate some more. When funny thing, on the top floor of the hotel could see my car, i'm like shoot there's a saab with a bright orange parking ticket. But ney' it was marlen's saab with the big bright orange ticket. So we put on huge jackets and headed down to move our car's. 15 snackwrap's ticket. Grrrrr. So I decided if it's gonna cost it might as well be at the biltmore. In the process the 100 mile an hour winds knocked a little some pieces of my hair over. It did not go over well.

So it's getting closer to the hour of 5:30. Linz malek hooked it up steaming my dress, thanks again. Kim did my makeup, thank u. Everyone was ready by 5ish, so we started taking pics. For all of you reading this from california, we've had a freak winter and the day of the wedding it was 68F. So we went outside and took pictures. Finally the moment comes, we get the call to go down and do this. All day actually the past two days, I was explained the walk that I would have to do. It's basically a one two step, pause, walk. Not to hard you say? You are a filthy liar, it is very difficult in 5 inch heels, in a gown to the floor, on a slippery red carpet, in front of 150 people. So be nice to me.

The order went like this, as I remember. Diva and Seth M-->Amy R and Jodi-->Luke ring child-->Sydney flowergirl-->Linz M-->Me-->Kim-->Marlen-->Bethany-->Kayleigh and Mr Roussin. Phew. So Linz go's and I watch her everystep. Then I get tapped and off I get. I can't really remember what was going through my head. Pretty much I just kept going 1, 2, pause, 1, 2, pause. And then looked around for comfort faces. Which is funny cause my mom sat right in front where when you turned there she was. So I saw her, and I saw tillie, who I noticed got a hair cut. I guess that's what I thought. Well I made it, and didn't fall. That was an accomplishment. Then everyone else came down. Kayleigh looked amazing, and so did the rest of the bridal party.

The Talk. It was long. I'll be honest. I thought I was gonna fall. My shoes were really high, I wanted the height, and well they were on sale. So the more he talked the more I got dizzy. I remember 5 things. 1. The cellphone of the person behind me ringing for a good 30 seconds. 2. The obnoxious boy's behind me laughing and talking during the ceremony, great friends. 3. That it was about 134F in the room, gehenna style. 4. Mr. Roussin making silly faces at me and linz. And 5. The Brother who gave the talk calling Kayleigh , Kayla. Not once but actually throughout the entire talk, even when he was corrected. But vow's were good, some people cryed. And they are married. And not that i'm one to say, but I would prob say that was the best wedding kiss i've seen. It was hollywood style, so congratulations to the bride and groom for a great wedding kiss.

Picture Time. The Biltmore is an awesome place to take pictures. We took some on the stair case, and what not. Then we headed up for a private cocktail hour. Then some drama happened. The day was very overwhelming and busy, without little boys being well little boys. I had an idea, hey lets walk into the reception wearing these sombreo's and use shakers. But apparently other people thought that was stupid. Whatever just say it. Don't take my stuff and hide it then claim you haven't seen it. What's that thing in the bible about liar's not inheriting something something. Exactly. But whatever it was handled. And yes, I got my flip flops back. And no one got beat down, although maybe they shoulda?

Reception: We made our grand entrances. Then kayleigh and brian had their first dance. Then I got to sit with my girls and relax. The reception went by so fast. Pretty much did meet and greet with a bunch of people. Then had a bowl of pasta, looking back I really shoulda had more to eat. Then danced a lot, and props to spencer who is a pro at salsa/marenga. That was fun.

Headed out of the reception and got outta my dress! Put pants out and headed out with the girls for beverages and more good times. Went again to Trinity Brewer. Drinks care of eli, who lost, hey I bet I can throw this little pearl in a that glass, he couldn't. So like 11 of us or more were there. When oh man, i haven't eaten all day. But the kitchen is closed. But have no fear thayer st is open till 2 am or later. So 11 of us got in Spencers huge truck and drove up there. 4 to a bench seat is amazing. Best was keller who was yelling at the people in the back of the truck to get down "nowish". Went to Antionoes and had the best pizza you can get at 2. Then some girls wanted to fight Keller the vegan from RISD. But they wimped out.

Back to my 2nd night at the Biltmore. Funny thing in the elevator up to the room I met some cast members from the play "Wicked" so random. Stayed up giggling with the girls and discussing kate's next husband, im sorry but it had to be said. j/k.

Next morning woke up and jumped on Nicole to welcome her to morning. Went with kate and nicole for brunch. Then met up with Marlen at her meeting in W. Warwick. Cool Hall. Then home for a little while to shower and get changed. Then went to house sit at Huckstables for the next week. Bonded with KK. Who loved to jump on my bed everynight. And I ate all of sheenas frozen oreos. Man did I miss my bed. So I guess that's pretty much it. I know i'm missing many details, but oh well.

In conclusion: A beautiful Occasion. Kayla and Brian jumped the broom. And I met a very nice homeless man, got a parking ticket, had the craps, almost got beatup, met the cast of wicked, and Did Not dance to cha-cha slide. A good weekend indeed. Goodnight

My Dear Friend Stanley and 2007 ,The Year of Jordan K

2007-01-05T10:33:00.000-08:00

Hollar at 2007 !

But first, this is gonna be a quicky cause holy deuce, tomorrow kayleigh's getting married so I gotta head up to the rehersal dinner in prov.

The weekend of Dec 16th, I went down to Jersey City to work at the Stanley Theatre. They have special work weekends scheduled a couple of times a year. So I joined the ever growing crew of sound. Headed up by Sparky and his brother Short Circuit lol. Actually Fred and his brother Henry, good guys. But when I went on saturday they were busy on another project, so I worked on cooper crew headed up by Janet. Oh Janet. So I went down to NJ with the King family, and we stayed with Janet and her husband. Janet is the most interesting lady i've met to date. She is a newly apointed italian citizen working as a tour guide here. The crazy thing, Janet is legally blind. But you would never know this. She knows her house and the Stanley theatre, better then I know my bedroom.

So Janet still gives tour's of the theatre, even though well, yeah. So working with on her copper crew was fun. Although very tireing, you basically sit for 5 hours polishing this tiny tiny area of copper, trying to make it shine with a toothbrush. At the end of the day, you can see a difference. Saturday night, I went to bed at 5:30 cause I was so tired from being useless.

Sunday returned to sound crew. Me and my amiga rewired the tv's for the elderly that were in poor shape. The funny thing is when she asked me how I knew all this stuff, and I explained that I was a closet nerd, and that if she told anyone I would dump her in the east river. Watchtower study on sunday was awesome. 350 people were there. I even got to comment ! And the food, (the real reason I go) was awesome. After we went to a diner for dinner and then came home. The next day I got up for service, even though exausted as ever from running up 9 flights of theatre stairs. And oh man it was amazing, I placed 1 book, 1 brouchure, 2 mags, and a tracts in 20 minutes. I know bragging is bad, but it was such a boost and a fabulous ending to a great weekend.

The next weekend was the annual Sugarbush, Vt trip over chirstmas. But I didn't go. Why? Well there is a nasty bug going around, And around 1 am on wed, I got it, and well without details, I no longer eat egg salad. So I missed the trip, stayed home and caught up on top model, and The Deul. Oh and Project Runway that I watched with my mom, I still don't know why. And on the 23rd my friend Karen from the Spanish group married Greg. I went to there wedding at Groton hall. It was really beautiful, a bi-lingual wedding. And the girls dresses were gorgeous. And karent with her fur coat, was hott.

The next weekend new years. Pretty low key, hung out with K and Vajj. New years hung out with aphten and Brutus, oh and ray was there. Fireworks was cool too. Then at 2am vajj came over for a sleep over. haha. Start off the new year right I guess.

Monday Jan 1st! We had Kenyon family dinner in hartford. It was nice being with the fam and having turkey and vino. Then the kids all went downstairs and played phil's wii. haha. Marsha and Phil got a nintendo wii. Let me tell you that may be the funniest thing i've done all year. I played bowling against my mom, too funny. So up to now, in between wedding stuff, i'm staying at The Huckstables while there in Mexico. Today friday the 5th, running some errands. Then staying at the Biltmore all weekend, and tomorrow kayleigh and brian are getting married. Don't worry story's and pics sooooooon to come...

A Very Special Day, Shower Power, and a Fairy Tale of White Trash Proportions.

2006-12-23T09:02:00.000-08:00

So much to say so little time.

So i'm back from florida, and I literally have 10 sec to get ready for a busy weekend. Saturday the 2nd was our Special Day Assembly in Natick. It was really nice. They recently combined our circuits, so now all of RI and about hmm 1/4 of CT are together. It was a packed house. I was able to snag the last 4 seats in the front section, I don't know how but I did. Oh that's right, I rode up with Danimal, Vajj, and K. So the auditorium was completely full, I even heard that some people at to sit in the cafeteria and listen. There was some really nice parts, I really liked the ones directed towards the youth, cause well I am one. Durrr. Some kids got baptized, which is fabulous. My cuz Justine, Emily, Phil, Angelica.

And then 2 other people from Westerly. After the assembly we went to Cav in Prov. Ha that kinda rhythm's. The restraunt has one of the coolest atmospheres i've seen, food was good but kinda pricy. And I was still kinda hungry. Weird.

The next week got back into my routine. Started doing service and getting back to reality of not being in beautiful sun and sand. Wednesday December 6th was my mom and Dad's 3-uhh 3-umm Thirty-Blah Blah Anniversary! No I'm pretty sure it was 31st. Yeah i'm saying 31'st. Well anyways, My dad and I got my mom a new digital camera. And I got mom flowers and a card, and dad says I can just buy him a 6 pack. So that's a good deal.

That weekend December 9th was Kayleigh and Brian's Jack and Jill bridal Shower. (wow that was a mouthful) It was at Fenner Hill Golf Club. It was gorgeous, that whole candle light feel to it. And a pasta buffet, which I didn't eat any of, stinkin taco bell does me in everytime, I have to stop eating there before I go out.

Anyways, a bunch of people came. And I knew almost all of them ! Which is cool. There was dancing, rusty flipped me, thanks for the warning, jerkface. And D and James left me hanging, story of my life, but it's ok I let them have it the next day or at least Ryan. lol. All and all a really nice evening,

i'm glad we were able to do that for Brian and Kayleigh. Oh And the girls from mass came down which was fabulous. Except one who was missing, jordank2.

This brings us to the White Trash version of my blog. Gather around kiddies, i'm going to tell you the story of how you can take the boy outta the trailer park, but you can't take the trailer park outta the boy. Sometime on thursday evening, a nice young lady returns home from her day to see a scary vehicle leave her driveway. A vehicle of someone not so familiar.

Let's call him Chris. Well Chris had been stalking our hero for quite sometime now. Well being scared she circled around the house and then eventually went home. In the mean time her phone be blowing up yo like it the 4th of july or somethin' shoot. Chirs continued to call, and jordank 2 told him to please leave me and our child alone. Jordan k 2 responded, if you come here again my former love and baby's daddy, I will have to call the authority's. In which Chris responded, My dearest I am in the bushes already. Jordan k 2 called the proper authority's who soon showed up. The female officer, came in to discuss proper custody's arrangements with our hero, while the male officer calmed down chris. Chris began to become very much a stinky pants and yell at the police man and even shove him, not very nice of him. Soon chris became very agitated and pulled a 9' from his automobile, that's a gun for all of you not from the streets. Jordan k 2, threw herself in front of her mother and pushed the lady officer outside, not very brave. haha. A standoff began. And the plot thickened. Chris was arguing and yelling yo mama jokes at the police, who were not impressed the least. More of the King's men showed up to help the police persons. One who was holding a James Bond 007 style sniper rifle, who at any moment would bust a cap in his aspirin. Man I have a headache, I should take some tylenol. Anyways. Chris is holding his gun around like a little pansy, the police persons eventually convinced him to drop it, or they would "drop him". The police persons, then discovered that his gun was fake. After eveyone including the paperboy and milkman had a good laugh, he was quickly arrested, flogged, and sacked. And he is now in nearby stocks, where eveyone can laugh and throw old food at him. Full custody of the child has been given to Jordan k 2, who has since moved on. Her and her new love are now perusing a happy life, in full time service, and no one really remembers what's his name.

That was a true story, but told in the 9th person jordan k. Don't believe me? Well read then watch this White Trash News

That concludes this week's edition. Next week, my visit to my friend Stanley, and T-minus 2 weeks till kayleigh is one hott housewife.

The Sunshine State, Go Gators !

2006-12-10T07:52:00.000-08:00

So yes here I am, again I didn't die. Maybe my blog's sometimes are just like N'sync, on indefinite Hiatus. But here is a comeback tour blog entry. GO!

So from the last entry you'll know that I went to Florida. We flew into Jacksonville, at a very early hour. Well, it wasn't that early maybe 9, but I went to bed at 3:30 (yes I was out too late partying like a rockstar) and nonnie insisted that we go to the airport 3 hours early. You do the math. So anyways into Jax we go. We get there to rent a car at the Devil aka Budget. Yeah you heard me Budget, I hate you. Apparently if your under the age of 25, you should be sent to an island and executed, you have no rights well at least not the right to rent a car. For real, even though I am 21 in order to rent a car I need to pay like $29083430 dollars a day, it is obnoxious. So after I got really angry with the women, I moved to the right to Thrifty. Ahh thrifty, they also charged me a load, but it really wasn't bad. And bum bumm bummm (that's a trumpet sound) We got a Red Pt Cruzer. Which is like the official senior citizen car of Florida. Haha that car was piece, but it did have an mp3 jack (to tune out nonnie). So from there drove down to see nick k (not nick king, nick kenyon, yes I have a lot of cousins) and Patrisha. We stayed at there house one night. Next day, I got to have lunch with Vee, and K dog. Who I haven't seen both of them in over a year, miss those girls. Then headed down to Ormond Beach / Daytona Beach where we were staying.

Our condo was kinda circa 1980, but the view was amazing. That is the view from the hotel room, it was the beach. Unfortunately we really didn't have great weather the first couple days. It was chilly. So if we can't go to the beach what do you do? Well if your 81 years old, a fun game to play is wakeup your 21 yr old granddaughter every morning at dawn, and then tell her she has to stay in the room and watch Golden Girls. Or drink wine out of a box. That's what you do when it's cold in Florida. But I was able to convince her to let me take the car back to Nick's and go to the movies. Deja Vu was good. I enjoyed it. Then I went to the bookstudy with them. They had a good bookstudy 7 little kids and 6 Adults. After the bookstudy they have a screened in pool outside. Well I was dared by a kind gentlemen to jump in with my meeting clothes on. He offered me $20. I was in the water no sooner then the words let his mouth. Hey I'm poor. Nick jumped in too, and Patrisha's mom eventually got thrown in. Then I got thrown back in after I was dry, that wasn't cool.

That night was thursday or the beginning of black friday. Down in Florida it starts at midnight. So I meet up with some girls down there and we took a mini van and started shopping at "the premium" outlets. They were sweet. A lot of sales. And a lot of people. I went to Banana which had 40% off everything in the store. And I ended up waiting in line to pay for 30 min. But it was so worth it. Gap was insane. I think a women got trampled for a pair of caprie's. (she prob deserved it) Went to a bunch more stores and finished at 3am. Oh oh a side point here. Yes I am poor. The money I spent that evening, well that is another story. One morning, I think it was a Wednesday. Nonnnie comes up to the room, and says "you wanna make $100 bucks"? Umm Does Kirsty Alley want Chocolate? We went to look a condo. Some wanna be slick guy brings us to this cute Restaurant and buys us lunch. Then gives us a 2 hour pich about why she should do this. Being the good italian she is, she refuses him very well. We walk out he door with $100. Plus the $2o from going in the pool, and now you have shopping money. It all works out.

Then Friday we had a last family dinner/brunch. We had ham and other things, delicious. Got to see the coon's and a bunch of nick's boy's. It really wasn't any different then here. Here all the boy's crowd around a tv and yell and scream about video games or the Red Sox, etc. Down there they crowd around a busted vehicle and hope that they will get it work, oh well. We headed out back to Ormond beach, and left the next day for a great journey down to Marco Island, which is off the coast of Naples. It was about a 5 hr drive down the coast. I did the first half. Nonnie argued and posted a fit but did the last half. We stopped in Tampa to have lunch. Then to marco. I've been there once before. It is so beautiful. I could def see myself living there, at least in Naples area. Nonnie has an awesome time Share. It's right on the bay side of the water. Beach is 5 min away.

So I went swimming, and to the beach, and rode my bike around, got a haircut, and argued with nonnie. Oh and we drank wine. That was the trip in naples. We went to the Naples Pier, it's a beach down there. And I think it was the most beautiful beach i've ever been too. Granted i've never been to the Caribbean or Indo. But it was a long white beach. With a pier through half of it, that you could buy ice cream and what not. The water was shallow, it's the Gulf of Mexico, and you can swim with fish, and crazy pelicans that I kept chasing cause i'm 10. Nonnie kept asking me to take her into the water because she was too shaky to go in alone, so I did. But she didn't tell me, the reason she wanted to go into the water is so she could PEE!

I'm holding her hand and I see her lift up her skirt/moo moo thingy, and go I gotta pee. GROSS, let go of me nonnie. No I need you. So I let her hold onto my pinky and try to run away. In this picture if you look at her face, you know what shes doing, I think I saw a fish float to the service after that!

I got to go out in service my last day there. And I'm glad I did. It's always nice to be out of your element with other people doing other territory. Almost every door I did was spanish. Which just confirms to me, that english is going to be the 2nd language of the USofA, that and I need to study more. We drove up on wednesday the 29th to Fort Meyers to stay at a crap hotel before our flight. It was a little sketchy. And nonnie didn't like it. And I said what do you want from a hotel that rents by the hour next to the airport....haha that woulda been funny. No I really said "what do you want from a hotel that's $60 a night?". Then we got up at the butt crack O dawn and flew out. We had a lay over in Jersey. And then we ran into a JW who was on our flight, irony.

So it's good to be home. Although I'm so behind on everything, including my suit case which a week later, is still full of clothes on my floor. Oh I miss you sunshine state, 80F days of service, and Naples Pier. However I have determined if and when I get a roommate, they will NOT be 80 yrs old. Tahh Tahh.

Ps: New entry coming soon, featuring: Special Day, Sleeping, Shower, Pioneer Dinner, and puppy's. Ok no puppy's.

OH SNAP... A new blog entry

2006-11-14T21:36:00.000-08:00

Here Ye, Here Ye.

A new blog entry for you. I'm covering a lot of ground here, because i'm realizing that I have not posted in a long time. Which is sad, because with all my tv watching, and laying on my couch, you would think that I would be able to post more often, but ney.

Hmm so let's see, the weekend of October 25th, I went up to hartford, or should I say East hartford for Joey's going away party. Joey is a male mammal that I know, that just got accepted to Brooklyn Bethel. Hooray for him. So I went to that and danced a bunch then went out with some kids to go do more dancing. Well this was the weekend I guess you would call halloween, even though clearly halloween was on tuesday. So we went to some spanish dancing/eating/dive/establishment. I think it was called El Cassona. Or in english "The Cassona". lol. We were there for about 5 min before some people thought it was a halloween party, (mexicans dont celebrate halloween or so they say). So we made a scene then abruptly left. It was much funnier in person. So we went to some sweet diner in which I stuffed my faced. Then just pretty much sat there and made fun of other people who were in halloween customs on a saturday night not on halloween. Next day went to the meeting in hartford whooops, east hartford. Then came home and went to the kings for dinner. Lonnie was visting from "Boston area". That's easier then saying the actual town, for now on i'll just say hartford area. Anywho. It was A MEXICAN FIESTA! Which i'm always game for. Corto, tights, and aphy-poo also came. Then we went to tights after for more beverages and eating snacks on her bed, HA! Put that in your vacuum and uhh clean it? I don't know.

Next weekend went to the first Spanish meeting in Rotten Grotten. I hearted it, saturday meetings rule. Then went to see Death Cab at P-PAK in prov. First went out to some trendy place for dinner, in which mac and cheese costs $9 bucks. And grilled cheeses were $12 bucks. Funny. But I still would go back. haha it was actually really good. Death cab and Ted Leo and the pharmacists played. Our seats were literally, the people in the nose bleeds laughed at us. It's true I was starting to get dizzy from the altitude. HA, but if you know me like I hope you do, otherwise stop reading my blog!...I got us better seats! J-rod and Asa were there and they had fantastic seats so I sat with them and then found an empty row so the rest of my group could sit with us. Death Cab played a really good show.

Ben Gibbord the lead singer of Death Cab and I have never gotten along. Ever since the last time I saw them play live. (basically i met him after the show, said something he got all offended, ever since I haven't been able to listen to there music, hey its not my fault some people are so stinking sensitive. Grow up lady!) Well some freakO was throwing glow sticks in the crowd and I got one. At the end of the show, Danimal dared me to throw one. We were close to the stage but not that close, it was quite the toss. So after the encore I chucked it up, and it went in between Ben gibbords legs and hit the bottom of the drums! OH SNAP! Did i make him angry again? Would jordan k be ejected from the arena? Who would bring her home? NEY. In fact none of the above. He turned around picked up my gloss stick, walked over to the mic and said, Hey glow stick guy, thanks for the glow stick! In which i screamed, i'm not a dude i'm a girl. But he didn't hear me!! Ha but we made our peace, and I can listen to there music again and maybe even illegal download it. kidding. maybe.

After the show Vjj and I had a sleepover, good times. Week went pretty good with the tract campaign! Oh how could I forget! I hearted it. I placed something over 300 I haven't counted yet. But the winner of the pioneers for the most placements goes to my bud Sista Tiven. Congratulations! Theirs a margarita at Flacos with your name on it. So the week went good until thursday night hit. I started feeling gross. Little did I know I was about to get the Bird Flu! ewww. No, that would be awful. I actually got this stomach virus that was going around, its garbage. So I spent the next 3 days in bed. It's pretty much your sick to your stomach, you can't eat, your dizzy, have a headache, don't poo, (did she really need to say that), and all together feel like trash. So that was my weekend.

Until sunday the 12th came. I got out of my pjs, went and bought a cute dress and shoes and got dolled up for Corto. If you didn't know, again you shouldn't be reading my blog, but my dear friend Cortopassi is moving to cali. Why? Because she hates me and everyone else here. HAHAHA Gotcha. Actually no, her uncle and aunt had a kid and offered her an excellent job as a live in Nanny. (dont act like if your family wasn't WT you wouldn't go do the same thing) Shoot. Anyways so we wish her the best, where was i going with this? Oh yeah, so we had a Not Surprise going away party for her. I know I know, we all make mistakes. Hey my hair was blonde for a while. Mistake.

But before the party Tights, Aphy-poo, Shelia McClean, Aud, Corto, and I went out to dinner at Spains. And we took a limo. It was awesome. Champagne and good food. Although I just had soup do to the Bird Flu. Then we went to aphy-poos for a sweet party. A lot of people came, thanks guys. And food, dancing, beverages. Lots of Fun. And SURPRISE, there was a chocolate fountain. Haha. Then some of us sleptover and went out for breakfast the next morning. Mmm Primetime. Whats not mmm, is that while we were eating breakfast, across the street 2 people were crossing the street and got hit by a truck! It was really sad/scary they were laying in the street and we watched the EMT's come. But fortunately I found out today, that both people were Ok. The man had a couple of scratchs, women broke some ribs, aww. Hope you get well soon.

So today is tuesday. Still battleing the bird flu. Counting down till I go to Florida, which is in a couple of days, and the last time I see Cortopassi, awww. But I need some sun if I don't get some soon, i'm afraid youll be able to see through me, and that would be just weird.

Ciao!
*Ps: the black and white photo, was of 2 "people" who were caught snuggleing at the Death Cab concert. tee hee hee.

This is a boring Post

2006-10-22T08:48:00.000-07:00

In fact if it wasn't my blog I wouldn't read it.

I just am filling the void of 2 weeks and no post.
When we last left our hero she was 21. That's still pretty much the most exciting thing that's happened in a while. So friday the 13th (ooooooooo) it really wasn't that scary. I went to see "Employee of the Month". I'm not sure how to review this movie without offending anyone. Ok let's put it this way. If you have been a Dane Cook follower since the BK Longue... Now i'm not talking about watching it on Comedy Central, i'm talking about the boot leg cd that you got from your friends boyfriend. (thanks gaygay) Then you will be very disapointed with this movie. Now if the first time you saw Dane Cook was on SNL or Leno, then it's your movie. Jessica Simpson makes me angry. There I said it. No Bj's or Sam's club or super walmart employee looks like her, or even has a friend that looks like her. In face they prob will never in there lifetime. (you get the point) Therefor, do not show up to work in tight sweater's that make your fake Ma-ming-esh look good. Not only that, but her acting is about as good as the Tower Street Elementary School Production of "The Trial of Hanzel and Grettle". Yes, I was the judge in that production, and even at 8 years old, I was a better actress then she.

Moving on, after that went to Crapplebees and Perk's for Drink's. PP's brother was there. He's the best. And he bought me a Mojito, and a black and white cookie mmmmm. Saturday went to the hall cleanup. Then I drove to brooklyn, (not nyc). K2thelee and her significant other are leasing a house. It's wicked cute. And it's on an acre or so of land with a river/stream going through it. I'm looking forward to kayaking there this summer. So I stayed most of the day/night, moved boxes and painted. I am quite the little wall divinci.

Sunday went over va-jj's. She had some bedfud friends. Ha i think thats how you say it with the cheesy acent. That was fun. FYI if we have to someday live on fire's, I will freeze to death, a bottle of lighterfluid later and nothing.

Monday ! Started the track campaign! I hope the kingdom message reaches the entire world. That's the big goal. My individual goal, is to defeat shannon. Now, I know we shouldnt stir up competiton. But I tell you what, when it's 4:30 in the afternoon and raining and you've been going since 9am, that small goal makes you get to steppin'. So yes shannon, you will loose. I will place more tract's. Oh Oh, monday night I went spinning with Meg and some other ladies. Omg. What is spinning you say? Well if Satan wore spandex and road a bicycle, that would be spinning. Spinning is an intense class of extreme stationary bike riding with techno music and fancy lights. And a women in the front who is miserable, and wants to make you miserable by yelling commands and making you ride faster. The next day I struggled to walk. Yeah it was bad. The bike seat is this tiny excuse for rubber. I am a full figured women, that thing can not support me. No bike seat can hold me! haha moving on..

This weekend. Friday the 20th. Hung out with my cuz Nk. Then went to Dylan's for drinks. Then went over huckstables and watched Click. It was pretty good. It was funny but had a very sad sequence of scenes that I did not like. Saturday got a flu shot!! I am excited about this. I refuse to die this winter. I went to walmart for this. ugggh. Yes I know. But when your poor white trash like myself, you takes what you can gets. But when I got to the walmart in town, oh were sorry were not doing that. You have to go to groton! (insert punching fist).

So I drove to groton and got it. Ahhhh. Then I hung out at my aunt's for most of the day. Ate at North End Deli, great food. Then saw another movie The Prestige. I really should rename this blog to the weekend of the movies. I liked it. Main favorite parts. Christian Bale. mmmmmm McMagician. Hugh Jackman mmmm another McMagician. However, leaving I still am confused on many things. So if you've seen it and understand the movie email me Jbumps@yahoo.com. We will discuss you know whatever the movie, daughters, coffee, barbara.

I told you this was a boring one.

T-W-E-N-T-Y * O-N-E*

2006-10-09T20:36:00.000-07:00

Can i get a lil Jon, Yeeeeeeeaaaaaaahhhhhh.

Ok good, let's move on. But before that. This weekend, Joe K bought a sweet kayak for the two of us, it's a Necky. We got an excellent deal, it's 13.6 feet, with a rad rudder system. So I met up with my aunt and uncle and my cousin on Wednesday and we went kayaking at Bluff Point. Joe K showed up later and him and Tony attempted a two person kayak, sooo funny. Then I had dinner with them and Netty who was visiting.

Thurday I turned 21. I've decided I do not want to age anymore. I'm sastified with 21, no older no younger. ha but anyways. I worked with spaz, went to the meeting, then went over corto's. It was cool, some people were their to watch Grey's (mmmmm mcsteamy is mcgorgeous, i would love to put him in a mcgridle)anyways. Had some dinner, watched tv, had my first drink, A margarita. Slept over corto's (which is tradition). Next day, friday, worked, came home for a bit. That night went out to Go Fish with some girls. Then after met Ac and a jewish guy at maragrita's. There were games that you could play to win stuff. Needless to say, I am master of the world. I won a blender, tshirt, beer glass, a day planner, and a sombreo. I rule ! You never know when knowing the ingredients to guacamole will come in handy, well on this evening it did. After another night of giggels went back to corto's and went to bed.

Saturday slept in. Went home again for a bit, then got ready and met up with D and James and went to Boston. We also met up with Fluf and Fluffett, who came too. We met up with another random person and went to eat at Giacome's. It was wicked good as usual. In the line to get in, I met this really nice girl and we got to talking. She was there with her Bf. We ended up sitting next to them at the very small restaurant. When she got up to go to the bathroom he told us he was going to ask her to marry him. So the whole place got quiet, and he purposed. She said Yes, and everyone cheered, it was so awesome and very romantic. I took some pictures of them, and I emailed them today. I got a very nice thank u email. After that we headed to the Paradise to see the Brazilian Girls play.

They were amazing as usual. I saw them last year at the same place. There just a very fun dance, technoish band. I got on stage, haha, I dont know how lol. We met some other people from boston. Including Pinto's GF. We were instant friends, and dance buddies. Some other "people" were there who we payed no attention to. After went back to D's and got home after 3 yuck.

Sunday went to the meeting. Then came home and went with Joek to Jonathan Edward's Wine tasting. My first one. It was a lot of fun. Tryed some nice wines. And the food was so delicous, esp the tomato fancy something something soup. And Sugar Daddy was playing so I danced a bunch more. Then after went to Ang + Al's and had dinner with the fam and watched tv.

Monday (today) ended up sleeping in SHOCKER. Got up and went kayaking with a bunch of people. Literally 20 of us in canoe's and kayak's, it was nuts. And it was an over 3 hour trip. All down wood river, hopeless vally area. My arm's were on fire at the end of the day. The water was freezing. I got stuck a couple of times and had to pull myself out. All and all it was a great trip and i'm so glad we all went. After we all went to brita's and had dinner. Played card's, salsa'd, swing danced. Then ended up curling up with sarah vajjay on the couch. A fabulous end to a fabulous weekend.

The Raconteurs...The Big E...Jamie Cullum... And HAPPY 1 YEAR OF BLOGGING

2006-10-02T16:01:00.000-07:00

I posted 8 days ago, yet I have so many updates...

Starting with, I've been blogging for 1 year. That's right, over the past year you people have continued to waste minutes if not hours each week sitting at a computer reading my useless story's and trying to understand my inside jokes. I salute all of you out there, getting fatter by the moment. haha, but no really thanks for staying with me for a year of blogging and onto another one. And for kicks, click on september 2005 and read my first Big E post, not a whole lot has changed.

Thurday night, I went to see the Raconteurs at Lupos. The opening band was Dr. Dog or as I called them Dr. "Db". They were horrible. I clapped and cheered when they said it was there last song. Ahh but the Raconteurs, there were amazing. I was impressed too, because I assumed it was going to be the Jack White show, ney actually Brendan Benson, the other guitar player, ended up doing more singing and more solos then jack white. I really enjoyed his voice. After the show, some idiot at the idea to go to the after party. The Alt vault, blah, I felt like if I touched the walls, I would get herpies. Stayed literally 10 minutes, just long enough to score free junk from BRU, then made my way home.

Friday went to dinner at Billias. Now I know the name Billias in spanish mean Biles, ie vomit, but I gotta tell you the food was Moi Bien. Then I went to Perks and Corks and saw some guy's I went to WHS with playing music. They were super good, and I even sat in on drum (djembe) with them. Saturday did not get up for service, instead met up with Marsha and her friend and went to the big E.

Ahh the Big E. I heart it more and more every year. We got there walked around, I ate a Corn Dog, it was good. Then met up with a bunch of people. No I am not naming them all, and even if I did I would use nick names and you wouldnt get it anyways. The Big E had a circus. It was actually very impressive, because the Quick Change Magicians (they were on America doesnt have talent) were there and they performed. I wish I could get dressed that fast. Then we played some games, I rode the swings a lot, general marymaking of sorts. I have a video of us on the swings on my phone, If i can figure out how to post it I will. Ate some more food, fajita's, and on the way to the bathroom found a slushy, haha. Then someone had a hint of crack showing, I grabbed a quarter, ran over and made a wish. No it didnt come true, but it made for great laughs/me apoligizing a lot, BIG SHOCKER.

The Next day, Sunday went with the Kenyons to there meeting. Then poped into Chinease to say hi to some people, when I run into AC, who clearly is not learning chinease. That was funny. Went on a chinease call, had some lunch, then headed to New Haven for Jamie Cullum.

Jamie Cullum. I went again with all of my family, pp's brother, and Billy G. In a previous post, I saw Jamie play about 4 months ago at Foxwoods. We had front row there, and I joked how I got to touch him, (shook his hand, whatever). Well in New haven we had 2nd row. But it was straight out of a Dane Cook sketch, because I was in the woofer. I couldnt hear anything, so I moved to a farther back seat. I ended sitting with PP's brother who I just met, talk about funny. But at the end of the show, Jamie once again called everyone on stage, and me, nick, and little lisa rushed it. I'm dancing next to Jamie's piano when oh thats right, he said excuse me and walked past me to play. So i'm standing 2 inches from him while he played. I got some nice pics and a great video, that I will try to post. And yes again I touched him. His hair was really nappy, but i still heart him. His show was great (see i told you gavin) Oh ya him and his possy was there as well. hollar. Jamie even played Sexy Back, which I thought was great. After the show went to a Greek diner and stuffed myself. And got home at 130 and to take a coma.

Today I did nothing! Im still in my pj's at 7pm. I'm waiting for my monday night shows, then back to bed. Tomorrow back to reality. But I gotta say it was one heck of a week. Oh and for anyone keeping score, 3 days and couting left!

Driving Slow on Sunday Morning

2006-09-24T08:04:00.000-07:00

and I never want to leave.

Wow so my last posting was 21 days ago. So i'm going to try very hard to remember (as usual). Speaking of 21? ha that's right. http://www.jordank.net for more information on that. Moving right along...

So September 5th through the 10th was our Co Visit. As usually i hearted it. We also had a brother "in-training" visiting us from the great north. I got to work with his wife in service. And I got to work with Mella another day. And we went to DQ and split a blizzard, I really felt the bonding. Then we went to visit Dorris, who made us all laugh and was very inappropriate. I did a whole bunch of service that week, of course of course. Also I started a new cleaning job, which I really like and is pretty good $$. Saturday did morning service with Co. Then saturday night went to boston. There was a free Taking Back Sunday Concert in front of the Town Hall. It was a lot of fun. Went with J-rod and Sara Vajjay. We met some other people up there. It was funny I saw these two girls standing, and one of them looked really familiar. And I couldn't figure out why, so I asked her if I had met her at a party? She looked at me like my 3 heads were showing again. She's like no I don't think I go to the same party's as you. Then I asked her if she was a J-dub? And she said yes. And then it was good times from there. Such a random world we live in After boston went to the patriot and saw Nacho Libro for free. The ceiling was falling down and I broke the chair next to me with my leg, but it was still good times.

Sunday was the Voodoo Grille (mmmm po boy pork sandwich) with phil and julie. Then band practice.

The rest of the week was trying to be as positive as possible. Biggest things I took, Comment at meetings, and invited people OIS. Tuesday went to a lunchin for Kayleigh shower/wedding stuff. Thurday went to the meeting. After met Julie at Crapplebee's. But in the process there was some other people there so we sat with them. And then afterwards went to Walmart. Mmmm nothing like milling around walmart at 11 at night on a thursday. Then went to the beach, haha. Went 4-wheeling all over Atlantic Ave, then went down to Watch hill. Someone had the genius idea to drive up to the lighthouse. Lighthouse = Softest deepest sand. Needless to say we got stuck. Ah 1 am knee deep in sand pushing Tommy's Suv outta the sand. Oh the best part of all this was, I came right from the meeting. Fortunately tommy volunteerd an extra pair of pants. But i was still wearing his size 12 sandal's and his huge Af jeans. So i'm sinking in the sand in giant clown clothes. I got called a skate rat. I Resent that. Finally got out and got home by 2.

Friday went to Flaco's with Huckstables, Aud, Wilbur, Nat (my future husband) and Corto. None of these names are actual people Then went to corto's and fell asleep. Next day saturday, no service, instead Olive Garden and Savor's. Good mix. Saturday night Worked at Perk's and Cork's. We were packed. Like whoa. But it was cool cause I made a bunch of tip's. A couple of $10 spots from some nice boys. Then around 1 when we closed me and King Nick went to Wendy's, perfect end to the evening.

This week started the 18th. I think I just did the usual, meetings, service work. Friday night stayed home and hung out with Joe K caught up on some stuff. Saturday pretty much the same. Selling some junk on ebay. But on a plus I finally go to see the premiere of Grey's. I had to watch it online because stupid me I missed it. But it was really good. Then went to the mall bought some stuff I don't need. And then went to Aunty M's and played cards. So now it's sunday. And i'm gonna get ready for the meeting.

Oh a stupid story. I was out in service on a tuesday. All was well the sun was a shinning. "Someone" got out to go to a door, I had my hand on top of the door. The door slams, I feel intense pain, Oh my hand is stuck in the door! I begin to yell. They come back open the door. And all I can see is completely flat thumb lol. I can laugh now, but ya it hurt like Phil Collins music. Thumb is healed, but funny thing i was cleaning on thursday and I cut that same thumb on a vacuum. I'm just gonna amputate.

Happy New Service Year !

2006-09-03T20:53:00.000-07:00

Hollar at 2007, at least the new service year that is.

So i finished up the service year, with flying colors that is. Friday night (the 18th) was the oh so fabulous pioneer cocktail party. It was very fancy and I enjoyed it. I also enjoyed the dirt cake. I'm kinda sad I dont have a pic of the dirt cake or as Tilly calls it "Dump" cake. (I still dont know what kind of cake she was eating or where she got it from). Afterwards went to Flaco's. GOOD TIMES AT FLACO's. After that around 3 went to bed at corto's. (Nothing like sleeping in your fancy cocktail party clothes) Next day woke up at 9. WHY!? I don't know. Who wanted to watch saturday morning cartoons at 8:30? Aud made me and corto and jockstrap some sweet breakfast. And then the Huckstables came over and their was great rejoicing. Then went to Bean Counter for more fiddles. I heart Bean Counter. GOOD TIMES AT BEAN COUNTER. So I went home and slept. And then Bathed. I said Peace to Tommy k who was off to Jersey to pack for his trip or should I say move.

Later Met up with Sara Vizzle and some other girl to go to Swing in Prov. It was totally different group then Salsa night. But it still was fantastic. I forgot how much I really enjoy swing dancing. GOOD TIMES AT SWING DANCING. Funny moment of the evening, swing dancing with Men's Club aka dancing in a circle around girls. Afterwards got some dinner, Is it dinner if its after 1? I dont know. I dont know how but some how 6 people ended up in the Saab? Including some random guy from Florida who got me into Dave and Busters! But the best moment of the evening was seeing Stanton throw his shoe up in the air like he was gonna try and hit us. Sorry I need to set the scene here: Everything was closed and locked at the mall. There was one of those "coming soon" sections up in front of a store where the top was open. Well, when he threw his shoe, it bounced off a wall and landed inside the front of the coming soon locked store front. GOOD TIMES AT PROVIDENCE PLACE MALL. Anyways so after almost peeing myself, not believeing the one and a milllion shot. Stanton proceeds to climb the front of the chain on the store. I run, because when the cops come, I dont want to be near this kid. lol. He never got his show back, and had to walk bare foot through the grossest parking garage ever.

This week was my vacay week. IE, i did nothing and loved it. Went and bought some service stuff was the most exciting. Oh actually no, I got the coolest new cellphone, 3.2 megapixel camera, what what. So on tuesday me and my dad decide to go to NYC to hook up with TK, because hes leaving on wednesday for good. So we take a bus to NYC. (stupid stupid bus ride) We get there walk around the city and got a bit of food. Then took the train from NYC to JC (jersey city). Had more dinner. The said goodbye for real. We took tom's car and phone which were keeping. And drove back home.

Thursday watched movies and ate chinease at cortos. Actually did that thursday and friday. GOOD TIMES AT CORTO's. Saturday went to an engagement party for Brian and Kayleigh. Congratulations to them. It was really nice. Very similar to her grad cocktail party. Always a blast seeing the Malek clan. And meeting some kids from New York. Oh and there was chocolate spoons, so I was content.
Today Sunday, went to dinner with Julie and phil. mmmmm po-boy pork sandwich. Came home and Jarod and Adam came over. And we rocked hard. I was trying to play hendrix and blew it. Oh well at least I can still playing anything by weezer.

Service all day tomorrow. Pff your holiday.

Updating This Piece...August Edition

2006-08-23T20:35:00.000-07:00

Holy Deuce ! It's been a long time since i've updated. I'm going to try and remember as best as possible, but i'll probably fail miserable..here we go.

So August is here and it's saturday the 5th. I've been really pushing in service to finish the month/year. Starting the month of August I need 83 hours. Today I went kayaking near Bluff Point. It was the first time i've ever gone, and it was rad. I think it will become one of my new favorite recreational expensive hobby's. Me and Alex d went out to this little island off near the groton airport, where we met up with some other people. It was a nice little beach, I even layed out a little (mouth dropped open). And we caught some horseshoe crabs and what not. Then I went to my aunt's for a picnic which was sweet. Then I went and met up with Skins to pick up corto at the airport. (so glad she's back).

Next weekend was salsa weekend. We had some people come up from NJ/NY for it. Including Danny who came up! It was cool he came up. He told me all about his adventures in the city including, washing the hair of the Fab 5. Ha I guess you would have had to be there to appreciate it. We hung out, met up with the kings later. Then went to see the metor shower in the borough which only happens like every 3,000 years, so too bad about that suckas. (all scientific facts are all purely nonsense I have made up) . Saturday, the rest of the bethelites came up and we all went to the beach. Fun Fun. Me and Danny went swimming. I've never seen anyone so afraid of jellyfish, i'm sorry it's true. But that also might be because I told him that The Man of war kill people and he if gets stung he will probably die. NO BLOOD.

Salsa in Providence gets better every year. If you have never been, I recommend it. Literally I saw about 200 people I knew. And I got my dance on. Funniest moment of the evening I was talking to Mr. George about this chick I met in NYC. And up next to me walks this girl. It was so random. (good thing I was not talking junk about her, she woulda used some crazy polish death grip on me)

Next week. Well Thursday's I work all day cleaning with Spaz. Well we clean this really really really gross house. The people smoke, and have animals. It's just a diaster. So i'm sweeping the steps to there basement and I'm looking at this room i'm in, the stickers on the wall. All of a sudden, Hmmm it smells like dog crap in here, wow I really smell it. Well, I look down and realize OMG i've stepped in it. No big deal, but oh wait, I wear Flip Flops to clean, oh wait not only is the ish on my sandle, but on my bare foot and pants. !!! After yelling and maybe some cursing, I run outside to use a hose, to well hose my foot off. GROASS.

Moving on. A whole bunch of more service, getting close to finishing my time. Saturday the 19th, was Sav and Jarod's wedding. It was at the Rhodes of the Pawtuxet. Very nice wedding. So happy to see everyone, esp Miss Lockhart. I danced a bunch, and ate a bunch, and at one point tackled the bride. Whatever she was looking at me funny.

Monday the 21st went kayaking again. This time with the King's and some other people. (too lazy to name them all, but Zoe was there.) It was really cool, we went down the Mystic River under the drawbridge, to another beach. Had lunch on the beach, everyone took off to go to Ram Island, but I was lazy and stayed to Lay out. Well Well Well, i'm stupid and forgot that i'm white, in fact i'm almost clear. I only put sunblock on my arms. I got the most obnoxous sunburn. I've been in extreme pain the past couple of days. Gew.

Today is Wenesday the 23rd. And lady's and internet geeks, i'm happy to say that as of 6pm, I finished my service time for the year. I have 840 hours! I would like to thank all those who were there to support me. Tim Horton, for making delicious hot and fresh breakfast biscuits, and coffee tasting of dirt. Bean Counter for always taking my bad checks. Sophie, for your beverages, ahhh your beverages. Even if you are 40 minutes out of my territory you still would always bring me back for more. And to all my pioneer partners: Skins, Corto, Pony tail O death, Shelia McClean, Sara V, Aphy-Poo, Tim Horton Jr. and to anyone else who I forgot.

...that I've been missing, give me the taste, give me the joy, of summer wine

So I just realized that that summer is 2/3 of the way over. Which is crazy because I really think that it just started. But enough of my daily deep thoughts.

So two weekends ago was Salsa Dancing in Nyc. FABULOUS. I had a great weekend down in Nyc, actually I spent the majority of the weekend in Jersey. It was fun seeing everyone down there. And got to hang out with Danny aka the best hair stylist ever as well as Jessie oh and I got my hair did. I had this crazy A frame hair style like I was coming right outta so-ho, but I opted to shorten it and tone it down, because I think the world is not ready for that yet. (or at least im not lol). I saw AC and his boys at salsa dancing and we got food at Cabana. Delicious although I'm still not sure what I ate. I think there was rice in it.

Last weekend, I went to a picnic. ha ok that was all. Sunday went to Shakespeare in the park round deuce. Good show, then a lot of drama. But what weakend would be complete without it.

And Just got home, well last night from the Dis Con. One word, One syllable, ok maybe two.....AMAZING. I really really enjoyed it. And it was great hearing it in english this time. Hung out with the chicopee/no ho/Hull/East Hampton, well the all over areas. We went to a bonfire at Juannies house on saturday. And let me say there were drums there. And I played for 2 hrs. And then Jammed with nasty, I enjoyed it. Then went on the tramp-o-line and fell/jumped off to chase jordan k 2. Whatever it was her fault. Oh and when and if u see, ask me about My Hanson, mmmmmbop story. Too funny to type. haha.

So great weekend. It's monday night, went out in service today, it was crazy hott. Finished the month at 80 hrs. Now it wasn't my goal of 90. But ha it was my best month ever, so good for that. Heres some pics enjoy, esp the pics of my Hull Family.

HAPPY AUGUST

I'm gonna touch Jamie Cullum....

2006-07-13T21:09:00.000-07:00

was my phrase of the weekend, but before that, let's catch up.

So it was the weekend of the 4th. On friday night I went to a kicking party at TBG house in Willy. It was excellent. I went with Tights, Phillip's , and J rod. Saw a lot of peeps. And got my dance on and on and on some more. It was crazy hott.

Saturday night, went to see Jamie Cullum at Foxwoods. We got hooked up by the Cooper's, thanks for that. Front row tickets! and free drinks! The opening girl was awesome, a cool jazz singer, but i forgot her name. Jamie Cullum.... was amazing. I went with cheryl k, king nick, and christine. All night nick kept jokeing with me because I said I wanted to reach out and touch Jamie Cullum. Well sure enough being in the front he came over singing, I reached my hand out and BAM... it was magical. Then Jamie was asking out everyones requests, well I yelled one, he said hold on I cant hear you, he came over to where I was and let me tell him the song I wanted to hear! Which was "The wind crys mary" and yes he did play it. The best part was at the end he invited everyone in the front to come on stage. And We jumped on stage and danced for the last song. Jamie even pulled Mandy onstage haha.

Admist all the beautiful weather, while everyone was enjoying the beach, I was out in service. But I do heart the track campaign so it's all good. The 4th, I did tract campaign with the Spanish Group, then I went to Maryann's for her and Tony's 30th anniversary picnic. While there we went to Best Buy, where I got a snazzy new laptop with GPS. Technically it's my "familys" as in my mom, dad, and I. But I guess technically i'm using it right now. So their.

Friday did service in the Am, bible study after that with nonnie. In fact me and Nonnie spent most of the day together. Then I went to the beach, it was beautiful out. Saturday went to Justin's party in Fall Riva. More dancing, all 4 of us that it lol. And I played Home Run derby, and Volleyball. Then drove to springfield to summers house. Went to Spanish Dis Con on Sunday, which was moi bien. Esp the drama. And after that I cruzed back home to see Pirates of the Caribean II. Good, yet long flick, i heart johnny depp, and Orlando Bloom, but not Davy Jones or his Monkeeys. Why did he have a locker? he ain't no athlete

WHOA, that was a lot of information. Now it's thursday night 7/13. So that's it. I'll ad pictures later when I get a chance. I need to sleep.

4 Weddings and a Funeral

2006-06-25T20:28:00.000-07:00

Ok, more like 1 wedding and no funerals. When we last left our hero, she was getting wet in Stafford Springs and going to a Fluffy affair.

Nick K came up for Fluffy's wedding. So me and tommy k who also was up for the wedding picked him up at TF Green, then went to Trinity for food. It was so great to see Nick and catch up on the years it had been since we had really really talked. Friday night (6/16) went to Fluffys for pre wedding events. The boys went out for some no girls fun, so I stayed behind and watched "Never Been Kissed" which I swear gets better everytime I see it. Saturday did cleaning all morning. Caught a bite in the afternoon with phil k. Then went to the rehearsal Dinner at Fluffys dads house. So tommy k , the best man, flat out falls asleep at the rehearsal dinner. Which was the funniest thing I saw all evening. After that went to Perks and Corks for more festivities. Sunday was the wedding, a hott, hott day. I was quite a fancy nancy at this wedding. Corto and aud assisted me with hair care, gracias for that.

The wedding was really beautiful. It was outside in the Gansit. I filmed, nick k was on audio. I'm still working on editing the video, it's coming out really nice I must say. Reception was a lot of fun. I dance, and danced, and danced. And then they made one of those circles where people go in the middle and make a jack rear of themselves with their sweet dance moves. Well anyways k2thelee, said "jordank do your move" which I have named the white girl move. Basically I just grab my leg and hop up and down. You have probably seen it at a party near you. Anywho, I go to do this move, and well my balance was way off. lol. So down the great wall of Jordan k went. I fell onto my knee and samshed it. Causing some serious pain. And now my knee is black and blue and looks like poo. Peer pressure is a dirty dirty tramp.

Ha so enough of that. Next day took the day off, thank goodness. Brought nick k to the airport, bye bye (tear). Worked the rest of the week and went out in service. I got an offer to clean once a week with Flash. And I took it. So I gave my notice at the attorney's office. Sad to go, but cleaning hopefully i'll make some serious dough. But on a plus, cheryl k is taking my job. Which was cool. So I trained her this week to take my job. Ironic training your mom haha.

Ok so then this weekend (6/24) went rock climbing and to margaritas. And today sunday the 25th, went to the meeting and had lunch with Sara V. Then she came over and later on the boys came over for band practice aka: underaged sunday. Then went to applebees and ran into some old friends from highschool awww. So i'm finishing this and going to bed. Starting my first long day of service now that I can do long days of service again ! Hollar at that.

I'm not quite Dead yet

2006-06-17T07:23:00.000-07:00

Yeah I havn't posted in a while.

Super busy with, work, work, service, beyonce audtion. Oh yea, i'm going to be in the band baby. Anyways i'm going to clean now, then more fluffy stuff this evening. Tomorrows the wedding, i'll post picks and stuff for that.

Peace out

Quick Build, went by quick

2006-05-28T21:57:00.000-07:00

Our last build together as one RBC, tear.
(Warning this is a nerdy entry)

It was in Stafford Springs, ie nowheresville, ct. I got there thursday night cause I was going to be on an evening crew. So everyone's finishing dinner, its about 6 oclock. I find out that, their were delays and that none of the wiring had been done! Oh, fyi i'm on sound crew, we make it possible for stuff to be heard, anywho... The state inspector is scheduled to come at 7am the next morning and the entire wiring had to be done for the entire building and here's the best part, it was me and one other brother do this. Even better, he had to leave to check in where he was staying, so he left for about an hour. Leaving moi, lol. Fortunately I was able to recruit phil k, who assisted me. We were able to run a ton of wires and what not, and he got some electricians to do the main hall. Then the other brother returned and by about 11 we finished. IIIIIII was sleepy. Not to mention that it was 100F no less, in the building.

I slept in a little on friday at the kenyons. Until I heard yelling at 7, "don't yell your going to wake jordan" was what I heard. Went Friday got their about 11, and it was pouring and cold. Fun Fun. We only had a little work because it was busy inside. So I had lunch and walked around and talked. I was going to go out friday night, to Carolyn's house but I got back to the kenyons and died.

Saturday, did honestly like 15 min of work. Cause again it was "busy" inside and we had no ceiling to install speakers into. So walked around more, talked to some peeps had lunch, hung out in first aid with K 2 the lee, what have you. Then flew back home to bartend this benefit deal at the park, for shelter harbor. It was good, the best part besides the money of course was that I got to eat all the extra sushi mmmmm. And let me tell you, it was sushi-rific. (ok that was dumb)

Sunday, I don't remember what I did, so i'm going to say the meeting and nothing. And the best part of the week monday, I was at corto's house when my car died. Ya thats right, the Saab hates my face. It would not start, so I had to have it towed. Apparently it needs a new fuel pump. And I thought it wouldnt be that much money and be done quick. Then i find out it also needs a gas tank and of course holiday weekend delays. So I still have no car. I've been driving the fan and creeping out people everywhere.

Oh oh better news american idol finale week! Taylor won! Soul Patrol Soul Patrol! I went to the AI party at the kings which was so much fun, and fantabulous food. And then a bunch of service the rest of the week. Including my finest hour, I was able to convince my entire service group to go to Sophies, a coffee shop, which btw is not even in our territory. We go the best frozen iced chocolates, ever.

I'm very tired and going to bed. But that was the week in review. I forgot to mention some other stuff I know. I'll cover this weekend, in next weeks blog. Peace out.

The Circus......is never done !

2006-05-19T17:15:00.000-07:00

Giggity Giggity Giggty, High five random black lady!

But i'll get back to that later. So I went to the greatest show on earth this weekend. Well I don't know if I would call it that, but it was the circus. And no it was no the 3 ring circus, in fact from what I can figure it was a half ring circus. So we headed up to Springield on saturday corto, and I that is. We met and Al and jordan k 2 at some house sitting establishment. We headed over and got some sweet parkingspace via AXIA. haha. Damon had the idea that if you have an axia pass you can park wherever you want, but I guess it did work.

Once we arrived at the circus, their was people selling stuff everywhere. Swords, hats, masks, everything. But no one had $100 bucks to buy any of that. But when walking to my seat I saw this fantastic mask of a clown wearing glasses. $7, I said NEY! So I said Summer, who was with us (waiting for stanton i presume) and I said give me $3 and she said ok. So a sweet clown mask for the price of $4 I think YES. When we took our seats, oh this was the part of the story I forgot to make. Earlier in the evening I made some predictions to corto. They were the following: People would drink and be silly, A certain girl and her boyfriend would get mad and leave, Summer and Stanton would break up, but then not, but then again, and this african american lady with braids would be mad at us. Now that fact was probably the most interesting of the story. Because when we sat down, I saw this lady with braids, and I said shes going to get mad at us I can just feel it.

The show begins!! I'm wearing my clown mask the entire time. The lead clown who's in charge of everything, sounds just like Turpeck, honestly I think their cousins. So we all yelled back at him in his voice and laughed and screamed as loud as possible. Well the lady in braids, proceeds to yell back saying she has a headache and the circus is not the place for yelling and headaches, apparently she wanted some pickles. ha No but apparently she's been attending another circus that has no yelling and everyone is sad. Well after being yelled at by braids, a certain person and their boyfriend get mad at us. So far, were silly, getting yelled at, and people are mad, so i'm up to 3. As we leave someone has the idea to buy plastic light up swords, that were amazing. So the 4 of us run down the streets of Springfield, in a battle of epic proportions. At the same time, on the other side of the circus, Summer is breaking up with Stanton for the first time. (DRAMA) Then more people got mad because they needed a ride home.

We get to where we were staying and much more silliness and sword fighting. The angry couple left. HA. Summer and Stanton come back in, Round 2. I just wanted pizza and that was the task for the rest of the evening. The boys left, and some how I lost a round of rock, paper, stupid, and had to share a double size bed with summer and jordan k 2. We slept in the next day, and made our way back home. And that was it. OH and the quote of the weekend, from one of our angry circus goers was, "Remember who you are"?.......Jordan K III.

PS: When the clown yelled alright at us. I yelled back ALRIGHT GIGGITY GIGGITY GIGGITY, and a friendly african american, not with braids, proceed to go YEAHHHH and give me a high five. And along with yelling we used the Lil John voice for WHAAAAAAt, OKKKKK, LETS GOOOOOOO. Remember who you are !

Un Poste nuevo

2006-05-08T19:16:00.000-07:00

Ok super quick.

Did service this week. Had another band practice which was good. We wrote a new song which i think is gonna be really good when its finished. Kinda sounds reggaeish. Someones gonna have to rap the lyrics, but clearly it will not be me. Ever since the whole jordan can't touch the mircrophone policy went in to effect.

Friday did a bible study. Then had dinner with my rents at Vetranos. awww. I saw like 3 chicks I went to school with, which caused me to proclaim once again, "I have to get out of this area". Food was good then went home to bed.

Saturday was the Spanish Assembly at Natick. It was fantastico. I got about 30-40% of it, which made me very happy. Saw some of my amigos and amigas. Which made me feel like a tool for not going to spanish. So the goal list has changed. Actually I don't have a goal list. So i'm making one. And going back to spanish, that'll be #1 followed closely but #2 kidnap Wentworth Miller. Indeed. Came home from assembly and died because I was so mentally exausted from spanish.

Sunday. Did not go to the meeting. I umm had a headache. Ha. Went to Hali's shower. It was nice. Beautiful day. Lots O food and friends. She got a bunch of stuff. Which will be good for making brain muffins or whatever natural stuff she likes. So that was good. Then came home and fell asleep. And woke up at 11:30 for a late night phone calll.....wink wink. And thats it.

This weekend is going to be so exciting, i'm gonna kiss a clown. MORE TO COME.

Zox, Brand New, and a New Entry For You!

2006-05-01T21:18:00.000-07:00

So I guess i'm covering two weeks in this entry.

Which will put us back to weekend of the 21st. On friday night went to Newport to see Kevin Devine (not to be confused with little kevin) and Brand New. Show was fantastic. I bought Kevin's cd which is my latest obsession. Brand New played all there oldies and a couple of new songs, but mainly it was one big sing along. Show ended with Tommy Gun, which I sung all the words at the top of my lungs. lol. I stayed in Newport with maryanne who had a condo. It was nice, right downtown on the water. Milled around then went to warwick and went shopping. Then came home for our 1st spanish bookstudy. (all of nagging finally payed off!) unfortunately its on saturday nights at 6! Who does that? But anyways, there was like 35 people their, only 8 were spanish (4 adults, 4 ninos). haha.

The rest of the weekend I just layed around the house because I was tired, and really didn't feel like going anywhere. The next week did a whole lotta service, because I was behind and waited till the last week to make it up. Wednesday some kids from New Bedford came down and we had a jam session. It was fun to play music with a band again. They'll be down again this week to play.

Saturday (the 29th) went out in service till 3 then "Summer" came down for the weekend. We went to spanish bookstudy and then went to the Zox concert. State Radio from boston opened for them, there a really cool reggae band. Saw a bunch of girls there. In fact there were a lot of girls in general there. Zox was amazing. They played for almost 2 hours. And I danced on the balcony. And saw Stanton crowd surfing, no one was impressed. Then went to Thayer St with Al, jordank II, and summer. And I got 2 spike junkyard dogs. mmmmmmm. Just thinking about them makes me happy.

Sunday more service in the Am. (Made my time!) Then Special talk. I enjoyed it. After went to a "gathering of sorts" at Lisas. And played volleyball. Which means summer is here! And then played a bunch of music and got home wicked late. That's it. Today is monday, I worked and took the day off from service to nap. Now back to bed I go, sorry this blog makes no sense, its pretty late.

Beantown, Skip Bennington, Maine, Sunday River, and Rog and Ray

2006-04-20T19:25:00.000-07:00

Well that title says it all. Although i'm sure your thinking jordan k, what is this craziness you speak of?

Have no fear my friends. What a busy weekend it was. Busy week of service and such friday night watched Mean Girls with King nick. Saturday slept in, because well i'm a very lazy human being. Saturday night Tk came up from Jersey with his friend Simon. We headed up to Boston actually it was Somerville for a fabulous gathering of sorts. (aka a good ol fashion house party) It was really cool because it was in this old Church downtown that they are converting into condos. How cool is that? It was an island party, which is funny in itself. I went dressed as a Rhode Islander (hey I thought it was funny) People got really into it. Saw some peeps from boston that I haven't seen in a while which was great. Including Skip Bennington, Yacht enthusiasts, and cleaning entrepreneur. He summer's in the Cape. Salsa danced, played pool, what have u. Then I stayed with some Haitian Chicks who were awesome, and after having no lie -4 hrs sleep we got up for morning meeting. With Co of course of course. Then lunch in Harvard square and off to Maine to see the fam.

So I have relatives in Maine, we drove up there sunday afternoon. We stayed with them, they had some people over for a dinner party. Then they have a movie theatre, in there garage. They install home theatre systems for a living so they had one of the best demo setups i've seen. (and i'm a big nerd) Watched a movie and then went to bed.

Monday went to Sunday River !! It was the last day of the season so it was free lift ticket day! Normally $40-50. I did about 3 runs before I fell and go the wind knocked out of me SHOCKER But I was determined, I caught my breath did a couple of more runs, then fell again, this time harder and got the wind knocked out of me again! If you've never had that happen to you, phew, its scary. The conditions were slushy so when you would try to stop it was hard to carve. So when I fell I went down and just slid (thank jah for my helmet) And when you stop and try to catch your breath and can't breath....horrible feeling. So I went back to the lodge to eat/rest up. While there there was a two guys playing music Rog and Ray. They were a Jimmy Buffett style band. They played guitars, bass, pianos, everything. Well they had congas setup and they called people out of the audience to play. They had me go up, and they liked me a lot lol. So I played the first set, then they called me again and played the second set ! HA. It was fun I heart playing and it was good times, they gave me a shaker egg. (whoooo hooooo)

Rocking out in Snow Gear!

Left Sunday River and my concert debut. Brought Anthony home, then headed home. It was a quick trip which was nice. Spent tuesday recovering and catching up. So that was it what a weekend. Yesterday wednesday had band practice with a new kinda of sort of band it was fabulous. So that's it, im off for now. Can't wait for tomorrow.
"don't you dare forget" ~Brand New~

Quick one for ya'll

2006-04-15T13:55:00.000-07:00

Two weeks since last posting, yet nothing exciting.

Sorry. So let's see, nothing really. My weeks have been so full lately that the weekends I've just been staying local. Last weekend, bartending on friday and saturday went over the fluff's had dinner and hung out. Then watched what about bob. mmmmmm, love that movie. Sunday I was inspired by the WT so I went for a hike with some peeps from my hall. Well, I met them their. They failed to mention that there were 2 paths, they went to the right. Well stupid me, I followed Reba and went left. 1.5 miles later, (most of which was ran) I realized that I was on the wrong path. Two hiker's who said No ones here, confirmed this. So went back down to the begginning and started on the 2nd trail. Why do I do this to myself? After that went to hoptown, then passed out from exhaustion lol.

The memorial was this week. Always exciting. 246 people came! I know. It was a packed house. Service was really good this week. I think the weather and the memorial season always puts everyone in a good mood. So hollar at that.

Last night, Friday, watched Mean Girls with NK. Great Flix. Now i'm home cleaning and packing. I'm going to a party tonight in Beantown, then going to Maine. yes i'm crazy It's the last day of the season for Sunday River, so it's ride all day free and BBQ. So i'm sleeping up in Maine and boarding all day monday! So pscyhed for Spring Boarding! And I have a helmet now, so I don't think their will be any concussions but if there is, I know who to call....K 2 the lee just passed her state board's. So congratulations to K 2 the lee, RN.

In other news, the Kittrick's household has come down with a pandemic of cold nastiness. Mainly just my rent's. So i've been taking airborne like it's my job. Stuff tastes pretty good, but I doubt it works. Let's hope that it misses me.
Here's to you airborne, and everyone have a fabulous weekend !

New Jersey....Only the strong survive

2006-04-02T20:19:00.000-07:00

Yeah so I know this was last weekend. But whatever i'm a little behind as always.

I left friday night to go down to New Jersey, Jersey City to be exact. I went down to see my bro and to see the Stanley theatre because well I never have. OMG ! This place is fantastic. Brief history hmm. Well it was built in the 1930's (warning my memory is shot, so do not quote any of this) It was used to have play's and even some movies. So it has amazing wall paintings, crystal chandeliers, fountains, the whole 9. So eventually the building got very run down and was just left to be. Well it was bought by the Society in the 1980's and completely restored, looking even better then before. It now holds 5,000 people and used for assembly's.

Enough history. So I took a short tour friday, then headed a block over to stay with Lady Parada. Yes thats her name . Saturday was work weekend. Over 400 volunteers from Jersey and New York Rbc's came to help. I was put on my excellent crew of sound. With two brothers who I have named sparky and short circuit. It felt just like home with Richy Jar. So it was cool because I got to see the entire in and out of the theatre, and got to fix some stuff. At the end of the day the "stanley" family as I call them, which were the caretakers and some locals all had dinner together. It was really cool, tons of food, beverages, and then we played mafia. haha good stuff Then Danny came to visit the theatre, at like 9 and cut Reem and I hair. i'm cute Then I brought home danny, and stupid me I left the keys to lady's apartment at the theatre. Well it was 2 in the morning and the theatre was closed and all the caretakers were asleep. What do u do? Go to the theatre wake everyone up, call the super, or sleep in the car? Well we decided to go to Lady's parents house down the road, but when we went to open the door it was still locked and we woke her Columbian Mama-seetah up. OI DIOS MIO, QUE PASO, QUE PASO ha that was a good laugh.

Sunday after only a few hours of sleep. We went to spanish meeting. Moi bien. Then went back to theatre for WT study and experiences. On sunday there were 500 volunteers. Then we had lunch together. After, went to Lady's and took a coma aka a super super long nap. Woke up, went back to the theatre said my goodbyes, and headed to Holobokyn. It's this cool little town right on the water on the other side of Manhatten. That's where I took the pics. Went to a thai restaurant with Tk, Pk, and my african uncle ben. I should know my lesson not to eat ethnic food before a long car road , oh well. All and all a spectacular weekend. Jersey has not see the last of me. We didn't have time to do anything in NYC, even though it's less then 15 min away, so that's the next adventure. StAy tUnEd.....

Oh and this week we had the Co for half the week. And then Sub Co for the other half. So ive been super busy with all that good stuff. Dat's it.

Two Blog Entry's for the Price of 1

2006-03-20T14:31:00.000-08:00

I know, I'm updating. In fact, i'm doing two at once. So read this and scroll down, or read the previous first so it makes sense.

I'll call this one, A lot of spiritual food.

Friday was the pioneer Seminar. I always look forward to these every year. The information is outstanding. Honestly, its just so great how you come away from their, I know I'm always beaming. And ready to do some serious door to door. And studying, because that was the theme. And it's cool because you see all the pioneers from the circuit. I believe their were 186 people there, but I'm not sure on that one. It was cool to see people from pioneer school. I saw a few I hadn't seen since then. My favorite sister Mayben! She's awesome, "Shooot I thought you fell out of the truth or somethin'" haha, not quite. So that was nice, then went out to dinner with tights and corto.

Saturday. The circuit assembly. Which I can not remember the title too, cause i'm a loser, but hey I asked my mom and she doesnt know either, so thats ok. Again so much good information. King Nick got baptized. I was so excited. But sad because I can't count time with him anymore. haha Totally kidding nick, but congratulations. Saw so many friends from the circuit and some well uhh other's. I stayed up with nonnie at a hotel. I was so sleepy I think I went to bed at 9:50 on saturday night.

Sunday got up at 8, so nice. The needs of the circuit were really good, gave everyone a lot to think about. Myspace = the devil. And the public address from the Do was awesome. And theres some rumors going around about me. So yes, Im dating. I heart NM. And thats that. Went out to dinner after the assembly on sunday. It was great. The union street brewery in prov is great. Watched a movie on the car ride. (best car ever wilbur) Today I had an awesome service day. Which was the iceing on the cake of a very uplifting weekend!

One for the books, Indeed

2006-03-16T07:46:00.000-08:00

What a beautiful weekend!

The weather was so nice outside. I busted out the capris to celebrate this momentous event. Which is funny, because today thursday, it was snowing. So lemmie see a lot of service and such this week. Friday night I went to Middeltown and got dinner with the Kenyon's, Melody, and Chris (who was visiting from pa) We got sushi at this place Japaniak II. It took 3.5 days to get our food. No seriously I think they went on a boat to catch it first. But all and all it was delicous. Then phil k took us on some ridiculous joy ride to see a view of the city. And when he got out of the car to get a map out of the trunk. I jumped in the driver's seat, locked the doors and took off with him chaseing the car. I drove around for a bit when I came back he was standing in the dark looking at the map. haha. Also in another randomness. I had hmm 4 glasses of water at this restraunt, marsha as well so 5 min into the ride home we needed a restroom. The only open one I guess was at this dance studio. They were having a recital, but said we could use the bathroom. So we had to go across their little stage thing to go. Putting the A in Awkward

Saturday got up to go out in service. Had the best group Lisa, Stephanie, Jasmine, and Gel. We did borough territory. I told jasmine if she was good she could pet a seagull. So we headed over to that point and found some seagulls, but alas they flew away. Later on went to the mall with chris. Did a little bit of shopping. I got new flops ! Thats pair number 6 I believe. Went rocking climbing at night at olley's. I heart rock climbing. And it was nice cause the young boys came and were being ridiculous with their climbing skills. I was able to get up the little wall, which took much effort but I was able to conquer it.

Sunday went to the meeting with phil k and chris. Then came back home hung out for a while. Phil k hooked up my new computer and I got all my old files back (hoooray) I was afraid I would never see my old service time or pictures again. Later that night we went to Fluffys to hang out. Good times as always to be had. Ate, played pool the usual. Caught up with fluffy who had just gotten home from Mexico. Then phil and chris left (tear) All and all quite the weekend indeed. I learned a lot in such a short period of time. I learned this weekend, unfortunatly somethings in life well they won't be as picture perfect as u think, never forget who your true friends are, and when in doubt enjoy some thin mints. (i know i did)

I have returned !!

2006-03-08T14:56:00.000-08:00

I know its been way too long since an update !

At first, I wasn't updating because nothing had happend. I was supposed to go to a wedding but I ended up getting sick and an ear infection (big shocker) so I stayed home. But all that nonsense is over and i'm healthy again.

So let's see what I have I done. Well I went to a hoedown in Enfield. Which was ridiculous. It was lots O fun. At a barn, and everyone was dressed to impress. The ride up was interesting as always. I went up with k 2 the lee, brian, and Big nasty. I missed the turn for the road, so the next driveway I saw I turned around. I was thinking their was a turnaround in the back. And it was all dirt, so I proceeded to turn around. It looked they may have grown corn or something, but it's winter and everything was frozen. Well as I make my way down the drive way "Farmer John" the homeowner comes out and stands in front of my car blocking the way. (OH SNAP) He had this look on his face as if he had just found out that his daughter was his sister. (which in his case was probably true) I did not want to roll down my window, cause honestly I was a little scared. So I just kinda waved and when he came over to my window I stepped on the gas to get out of there. Well he proceeded to PUNCH MY CAR ! It was loud. And it sounded like he may have hurt himself, cause he hit it hard. Which is what he gets. The lesson, don't let hick's cross breed. Oh and i'm happy cause Brian, almost thought about thinking about getting out of the car to say something (phew)

Hmm what else. I have been doing a lot of service. I didn't make my time last month (tear) Hey it was a tough month, and being sick didnt help. So i've been out a lot this month and I'm going for 90 which will probably end up at 75, but here's trying.

Last weekend, I spent Friday-Sunday in New York at Walkill. Ahh young love. haha. It was nice to see those boys and hang out. And I got to know Becky very well. For those of you who don't know her, shes crazy. That's it. I heard about some women who is a friends of her's that I do not know, and her puppy about 27 times (no less) . So that became the long running joke, and From the Gap chicks sketch. (Mmmmm that looks good, can have some? mmmm these are good. haha) Oh and I went to the mall and got Aqua teen Season 3 dvd ! I'm so excited !

And and I got a new computer ! It's so rad. My other one crashed. Sad but true. But we got a very good deal on this one (free is always good) So I heart it.

Ok well thats the best I have for you. This weekend, is going to be good, I know this. Don't worry more updates are soooooooon to come.
k bye

Tis the Season to be sick...or on vacation

2006-02-16T18:32:00.000-08:00

That seems to be the current trend.

I just got home from the meeting in which their was about 45 people there. Ok so maybe I am exaggerating, but i'm close. Seems like most people these days are either sick or on vacation. Unfortunately i'm part of the latter group. I've had this stupid cold thing for a week, it's finally leaving my body (thankfully). I've had a steady diet of Dayquil then Nyquil. My mom is telling me to stop taking it, but for some reason I can't. I don't have an addiction, I can quit anytime. I can. Look i'm stopping now.

So that's it. I know not very exciting. I just wanted to update, because I know its been a while. And I don't even have anything exciting to say, because I've been home, so, so sorry sir. This weekend should be good, i'm going to a wedding in Cambridge (beantown), which I think i'm guest/bartender. And were staying at a hotel so good times will be had, i'll report when I return. So now i'll leave you with a joke.
Have a good weekend...

A salesman is driving toward home in Arizona when he sees a Navajo man hitchhiking. Because the trip had been long, he stops the car and the Navajo man climbs in.

During their small talk, the Navajo man glances surreptitiously at a brown bag on the front seat between them.

"If you're wondering what's in the bag," offers the salesman, "it's a bottle of wine. I got it for my wife."

The Navajo man is silent for awhile, nods several times and says, "Good trade."

Swing Dancing...Mike Rotch...and a very Super Bowl

2006-02-09T07:27:00.000-08:00

What a weekend !

Friday was the first friday of the month which means, swing dancing in hartford. I went with the fluffetts and my (date) or (cousin) whichever suits you Caleb. We managed to get there and not get lost. It was amazing esp cause it was my job to naviagate, and I had no idea where we were or what was going on. Swing was lots of fun. Saw a lot of peeps I hadn't seen in a while, like springfield and Tiverton kids.Here's some pics(i'm not in any of them, excellent). Afterwards most everyone went to Brazas a salsa club. But we just went home and of course it Wendy's first. Causing Fluffy to go into a panic of what to order haha.

Saturday, oh sweet sweet saturday. Well I was supposed to go out in service, but that didn't happen. So I slept in and went to a baby shower for Bethany. It was at the vfw in preston. I took the wrong exit and ended up in nowheresville Ct hoooray. Got there talked to Debro, and the girls and had some snacks. Then I was outta there and off to Corto's. Waited for Al, brianna, and tights to come over. Went to Go Fish, which I def need to stop going there, because I go there at least once a week. Went back to Corto's after, which is where the fun began. This is all i'm going to say. Our friend Summer* has been talking online with a mystery boy name Mike Rotch (haha). Well Mike called her on saturday night, and proceded to talk to her on and off until 3 am. Quote of the evening "If summer doesn't meet me at the 50's diner I swear, bodies will hit the floor". All and all one of the funniest nights umm on this planet? lol.

(Pic of Ben Cohen aka Mike Rotch )

Super Bowl Sunday ! And I didnt even know who was playing. Went to Fluffys, Liz came with me, which was cool and some other kids were there. Played about 234234 games of pool. And I actually won a couple, cause we played teams. Listened to music, I danced, and then watched Vermont footage. By the end of the night me and Liz wrestled, I dont know why. I was winning, (i think) until she put my arm completely behind my back and shoulder, causing me to scream and lose feeling in my arm. I got her back next round when she tryed to body slam me and instead, slammed herself onto a hard wood floor. So that was it. It's thurday now, i'm home with a cold,(so mad at you brianna for giving it me). But getting better hopeing to be back out in service and hopefully snowboarding this weekend.

*some names have been changed to protect the naive.

If You Thought American Idol Was Bad...

2006-02-01T20:38:00.000-08:00

So American Idol is back on.

I've been sucked into it, no thanks to my mother. But i've been trying too avoid it at all costs. And I can say i'm one week free of AI and it feels good. (oh how i miss sweet sweet Randy).I thought you all would find this interesting. Apparently the U.S. has spawned other Idol shows ripping off American Idol. I've heard of things like Australian Idol or Canadian Idol, which lets face it Canadians are americans and australians attractive americans. But then there were so not so good ideas, like Indian Idol or the popular Indonesian Idol. Ha yeah I had quite the giggle over all this too.

Other then that its a new month. I was happy to finish off my service time for January(hooray for me). Which is what i'm supposed to do anyways, but it's been a tough month weather wise, so I was happy. And got some new snowboard stuff so hopefully some boarding soon. Thats all for now.

Note: It has been neither confirmed, nor denyed that Tommy K has entered Indonesian Idol competition. Stayed tuned...

Pa is A-ok

2006-01-25T15:59:00.000-08:00

So I've been a little behind in posting.

My last post actually took place 3 weeks ago, even though it was dated last week. I have been working a lot. Still keeping busy at the law office, but also some other work. Bartended the last two weekends in a row at Perks and Quirks. I really like it, I always have a good time, and i'm getting my expresso martini's down. (mudslides are another project ! don't hate) Made some sweet moolah with that. Then for two nights, I went and stayed at this lady's house uptown. She's recovering and just wanted someone their in the night to watch over her. So I would shoot the breeze, get her coffee, and juice. Then go to bed in my own room with cable! (oh how i miss mtv) Then the next morning would make her breakfast and made $100 for that ! Hollar. Needless to say I went to the mall, and that was the end of that.

So on saturday morning, phil k, marsha, and I headed down to Lebanen, which I have been calling Lebanon, which is not right, you say tomatoe, i say shut up o . First day went and had dinner, with the whitickers. Then Kenyons whipped up a fabulous dinner. Then we just hung out and I got to play Kevin's drums.

Sunday went to the meeting. Mark did an awesome job with his talk. No really, I was really impressed. Phil k commented twice in chinease at the meeting, the best part was that this was a meeting in english. I dared him, I just can't believe he did it. Then we went out to this random wanna be steak house with my fam and like 30 memebers of the Cooper family. Mark's new family . Then Chris, Stephane, and Kevin (local pa boys) all came over and we watched movies and played music. And then a late night trip to Wendy's which I guess, is nothing new then what I do here. Said our goodbyes, and got up super early the next day to drive home. It was a nice change of pace, and good to see everyone. Drive home was interesting, then again its always an adventure with phil k. I got the day off of work, so I went to the mall. I guess that's it. Sorry it wasn't that interesting, but yeah it really was... Giggity Giggity Goo

PS: Oh and I saw a horse and Buggy going down the street, by far the greatest thing ever. And i've done a ton of updating to my website including a lot of pictures, check it out.

A visit from NC (part deuce)

The recap of kayleigh's

from the best or most interesting point of view.....mine

It was a very fancy evening to say the least. Cheryl K made me an excellent little blue dress with fancy lace and pearls (my idea). It was kind of a flapperish style, which I was told was the theme, but later I found out it was not themed (the themer or themer's have been flogged). Anyways so me and k dog went to Corto.'s (who i have been told would not like to be mentioned, but i'm sorry it's part of the story) to get fancy hair do's. So my hair got curled, and when I say curled i'm talking watch out shirley temple. For real, it was crazy I was terrified of it, but in the end I really like it, it reminded me of my youth and my little curly fro. So got hair did' then went to Taco Hell, then home to finish getting ready.

Cheryl K and K-dog and I finished getting ready. They assisted (or did all) of my makeup. Its pretty sad that it took 3 women for me to get ready, but I guess so is life. We headed off to the party cheryl k drove (tee hee) me and k dog sang the entire way their it was awesome. Finally arrived. I was wearing my bubba teeth, as seen in the photo. I figured if I had to look that fancy, I at least was going to have to do something to keep it real.

Everyone looked really good. The Roussins house looked good. The Food was good. Oh and did I mention, I looked good? (feel free to stop reading anytime). I had a lot of fun. I danced a lot. Mrs. Mcgurn was the offical assist Jordan K from revealing too much of the evening.(strapless bra = Piece of crap) THANKS SHEENA ! By the end of the night I had lost my voice, because through no fault of my own, I was being egged on doing my lil Jon Impressions. WHHHHHHHHAT, OKKKKKKKAY, LEEET'S GOOOO and who could forget YEEEEAHHHHH Followed by dropping something. So all and all good times had by all, next time you see me i'll tell you some tales from the evening or i'll just say WHHHHHHAAT, OOKKKKKAY Oh and any rumors you have heard from the evening are prob. true, inless there about me.(so mad at Dr. Huckstable)

Got home at 3 am. Slept for 3.5 hrs then brought K-dog to the airport. awwww. Miss you long time. Visit was a lot of fun tho. Then went to meeting and had pioneer meeting and my house later. And an excellent dinner. I fell asleep at the end of the dinner, on the couch. (big shocker) I told you it was a long weekend.
PS Their is something in the water in Westerly, anyone who drinks it will instantly have a significant other, BE WARNED !

A visit from NC

Kirstin and her New England Debut

Very fun week. K-dog came in from North Carolina on wednesday. Me and k2thlee picked her up at the airport and went to Providence to go Undergarmet shopping. (i was against it). And after eating Johnny Rockets aka Cow Brains, we headed home. When I got home there were 4 strangers waiting. I'm still not sure who they were, but I think originally they were coming from Jersey. 2 guy 2 girls but no pizza place. We had fun hanging out what have you, then one of them played piano, the other guitar and me on drums. Then we went to Tim Hortons and picked up Meghan, and each ate a dozen donuts. Got home and Danny (who was my favorite one) cut my hair in the living room. (i heart free hair care).

Thursday me and k dog went boarding at Wachussett. It was a lot of fun. Conditions were pretty good. I ran into lil Lindsay and her sister Stacy. And lindsay headed down the same trail as us, I was cruising down the Mountain to catch up to her. I had just gotten behind her when I lost my footing and went down. Unfortunately, I fell and landed straight on my head. My hat went one way my goggles the other. It really hurt. I got up a few minutes later. Dazed and confused, and I was seeing double vision (not cool). So I finally made it down and the girls were already there waiting, I told them what happened. We did one more run (big mistake) then headed home. That was the longest ride, I had to drive, and I had gotten so tired from hitting my head, all I wanted to do was fall asleep. Went I got home later that night, Dr. Cheryl K determined I got a minor Concussion. Were still not sure, but I have a lump on my head as a trophy for not wearing a helmet.

Friday went to work, then skipped service to rest, cause I was still feeling like crap from hitting my head. Then went out to dinner at Go fish with Fluff, Tights, D, corto, me and K dog (don't u love nicknames). Sushi was fantastic as always. Then milled around Mystic Village then got a movie and watched it at Fluffs. We played pool, salsa'd and watched The Island. I hearted it. Esp. Ewan McGregor (gorgeous).

Next day was Saturday which was service and Kayleigh's Party. That will take a posting in itself. Stay tunned for Live play by play, stats, pictures, and me looking cute.

So this is the new year

2006-01-03T20:44:00.000-08:00

And I don't feel any different

I never expected to make it to the 6th grade let alone 2006. But hooray for human beings not blowing themselves up yet. I have been gaining quite a fan base i've been told. Which makes me very happy, so you die hard junkys out there making minium wadge and signing the blog, I salute you, and keep it up. haha. But no seriously thanks for the love.

This weekend I think I went to Perks and Quirks twice. Its kinda like Cheers, because everyone there really does know my name (i cant help the fact i live in a small town). I got to play with the family band (me, lil nicky, and kenny). I was on the djemba rocking out as always. The next day my hand was bruised from the all the playing. I think we playe a total of 1.5 hours maybe more, it was two sets.

Monday I worked for a bit. Then I surprise k2thelee with her graduation gift. I don't know how I managed to do it. Because as everyone knows im horrible at keeping secrets, but I got her all the way to the front steps of the Dunkin Donuts center, without knowing that we were seeing Disney on Ice, which is what the gift was. She was convienced it was Monster Ball haha which I dont even know what the heck that is. Disney on Ice was awesome. Seriously I very much enjoyed it. They did all the major Disney movies (Aladdin, Beauty and Beast, Cinderella, etc) and then Small World and Main Street parade. And fireworks at the end. Then we went to spikes and had delicous hot dogs, which I have still been experiencing discomfort from (make it Pepcid Ac Kids).

The rest of the week is going to be crazyness. I'll update it again when its over. Kierstin's coming from NC. I replaced the drawing section below (sorry cortopassi) the website that hosted it was always down. So enjoy a funny/cool video. This one is Dane Cook on SNL.

2005-12-25T07:52:00.000-08:00

And i'm completely exhausted.

It was a very busy week. Between job at lawyers office, roofing, trying to squeeze service in, and house sitting (although that didnt take any effort). Watched sheena and jons house while they went to mississippi to do relief work. Me and KK (kitty kat) bonded as always. Although she slept in the living room and was not allowed in the bedroom, I learned my lesson from last time.

Thursday began the long weekend. Went to the meeting and did a sub house holder talk with cheryl k. Left the meeting, packed my stuff and headed to E. hartford to uncle marks. Got there at like midnight, stayed up and watched Leno with Marsha. Then got up at 4:45 (oi dios mio) to meet the chickopee girls. Met with there car-a-van, Devin rode up with me. Which was cool, we also bonded and got our dance on to the 4 hr mix's I made. Got to the mountain finally after some complications of going to Mt. Ellen instead of Lincoln Peak (i dont wanna talk about it). Met up with Kierstin and Bria (BRIA). So then the 5 (me, kierstin, BRIA, Al, and Brianna) of us took the lift up. I was scared, because I knew I was gonna die. It was my first time riding this year. So Bria and the "aunts" (still trying to confirm who they were and if they were aunts) followed me down and Bria taught me the point method to turning. Then boarded more and saw more j-dubs on the Mt. including fluffy and the boys. Saw goldy locks (holly) in her crocheted hat, we were supposed to do a run but it never happend.

Stayed with Bruce and Kate at there sweet condo. That place is awesome, literally and I mean literally you got off the lift, and there it was. The Rinehearts came over and gav and liv we had dinner and played caps. I scored the first ever 4 leaner (whatever that means) gavin knows the rest. Whoa i'm tired, but thers more. Next day took my time waking up. Everyone came back over, some went out riding, not me, so sore, and def did not have $67 bucks to board as opposed to the $5.50 from the previous day HA. Said my goodbyes, stop and got a sandwich and some goodies and begun my drive home. Stopped in E. hartford again, had some food, saw the fam. Then came to westerly for dinner party aka Dinner #deuce. Fabulously good italian food. Me and lisa played a duet on the piano. And then the pullos told me all about bethel service, and hanging out with the GB. Then home to take a coma (a really really long sleep.) I told you it was a long weekend.

You are my Family Tree..

2005-12-19T12:00:00.000-08:00

Take care of me BOP BOP

Tis the season to be completly broke. The crazy thing is that I dont even buy gifts for people. I checked my bank balance today and it was $1.71 !! It gave me quite a giggle. So needless to say I picked up another Job. I have been working for CMS construction. I also offer counseling during that time. Or go to Home depot. Just some of my duties. Along with being out in the rain while picking up lumber. Good training.

Have you ever had the thought to yourself, the drive there is better then actually going. Ive been having that thought lately. Goldylocks (holly) had a gathering of sorts (lol) at her house. I road up with Fluff and D. Or should I say I drove up. They can make anything thats not a party a party. After almost driving into the Atlantic Ocean (very very close call) and almist hitting Kierstin and Bria we arrived. It was fun, tons O food, and bethelites. Ha food and bethelites. I got my dance on as usual. And then a bethelite dropped me on the ground, which was nice, thank goodness for all my padding. Asha jamela shaniqua lafwanduh destiny shampoo, was playing man-hunt cept none of the brothas knew that they were playing. Then we left and Fluff had to pee and we left him on the side of the road in the dark. haha enough said.

Sunday was the day of Dinners. First I went to a Brunch with my my closests 18 relatives (joy). Food was good at Seamens Inn. I saw Geoff and he bought me cake ! But thats nothing new. It was good to get together though, i'm happy for my parents celebrating 30 yrs. Then went to maryanns for a bit and heading to dinner # deuce at Sherrys house. All and by all I mean not Lone Ranger pioneers were there. We had a good time I was swing dancing with Linda. And then performed my arcobatic tricks for everyone. All and all a good weekend full of lots of food and probably offending a few bethelites....mission accomplished.

Gathering of Sorts

2005-12-10T22:23:00.000-08:00

Lol no it's a party.

Super busy weekend. Tk came home and the villagers rejoiced (yeaah). He brought with him Richard (dickey) from England who was staying with us. And yes we did our best to show him true americans oi oi. So we had as tk calls it a "gathering of sorts" at our house. Just last minute some like 15 peeps came over. It was fun tho played some music, food, beverages, mafia game, more beverages and called it a night. Mafia was histerical if youve never played it, play it at your next party. Poor fluffy kept getting killed every round first person. And Dr. huckestable (mcgurn) usually was the one doing it.

Saturday last minute again, went to Boston. Walked around it was wicked cold. Then went to Jacamo's (def spelled wrong) and had dinner. And I must say my ravolies were very good this time around. Props to k2thelee for again making me go there, it was delicous. Then went and chilled at J-gains apartment before heading out. Which then we drove home, changed and went to New London. haha. Got to the house party at 10. Lost of dancing. Good food good times. Fav scene of the night, umm tk doing the cha cha slide. Oh man so bad, yet so good too. Oh and at 12:30 dancing with Leah to Aqueous Transmission, which was actually more of a tai chi movement. I'm beat off to bed. Spanish meeting tomorrow and maybe band practice?

Oh and in case you were wondering the below posting was updated. Anyone who would like to edit content on this blog let me know, because I am a horrible judge of crossing the line. Oh well, at least anynomous loves me.

All I heard was blah blah blah

2005-12-04T18:11:00.000-08:00

Just returned from our special day assembly. Really good information. And saw some old friends. Saw some new couples and some soon to be mom's. And the circle of life continues.

Its been a ridiculous busy week.
I sold that timeshare that I advertised. And I made a $100.00 comission, which is sweet cause i'm partically homeless. I got a new cell phone, then I thought it was broken, so I got another new phone. Ive had apx. 4 cell phones in 2 weeks. And it all comes down to Olley's cats = the devil. My message to you youth of america, take care of your cell phone because when its gone you will miss it, esp after a cat has pissed on it. (tee hee that rythms). I'm still dreading my credit card bill for all stupid phone stuff I had to buy.

My parents 30 yr anniversary is tomorrow. WHOA ! Thats a long time. But i'm very happy, it gives me hope that marriages in this world can last. Even if you do have a two punks for kids (me and tk). And uhhh oh saw an excellent concert last week. Piebald and Hot Rod Circuit. Both bands were amazing. So now im stuck on listening to Grace kelly w/ wings, and havent tryed it. Which is my new ringtone. Went with k2thelee, Brian mcbrian, and miss jackson. ( i am for real )

And that's more then a dress, it's a Grace Kelly movie...

The Chick-tionary

2005-11-24T18:07:00.000-08:00

After reading a comment, saying that my blog isn't as interesting or funny, i'm posting this. I decided to put something that I think will better Mankind.

Gentlemen, I give you passages from the Chick-tionary:

FINE
This is the word women use to end an argument when they feel they are right and you need to shut up. Never use "fine" to describe how a woman looks this will cause you to have one of those arguments.

FIVE MINUTES
This is half an hour. It is equivalent to the five minutes that your football game is going to last before you take out the trash, so it's an even trade.

NOTHING
This means "something", and you should be on your toes. "Nothing" is usually used to describe the feeling a woman has of wanting to turn you inside out, ripping out your guts and serving them to you on a baguette (bagel will work if baguette is not available). 'Nothing" usually signifies an argument that will last "Five Minutes" and end with 'Fine'.

GO AHEAD
At some point in the near future, you are going to be in some mighty big trouble

LOUD SIGH
This is not actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A "Loud Sigh" means she thinks you are an idiot at that moment, and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over "Nothing".

THANKS
A woman is thanking you. Do not faint. Just say you're welcome.

THANKS A LOT
This is much different from "Thanks." A woman will say, "Thanks A Lot" when she is really ticked off at you. It signifies that you have offended her in some callous way, and will be followed by the "Loud Sigh." Be careful not to ask what is wrong after the "Loud Sigh," as she will only tell you "Nothing."

*alright, giggity, giggity, giggity*

Shameless Promotion

A new happier version of an Old Post.

Nick and Trish are visiting from Florida so i've spent almost every day with them. Which was really nice to see them and catch up on things. Friday was work then service. Night was all the sushi I could consume ( and let me tell you its a lot). Then went to Perks and Quirks hung out with some acquaintances and friends. Andrew Spats was playing hes wicked awesome. And for his second set I went home and busted out my Djemba and tambourine and played the second set with him. It was so much fun. We played beatles, neil diamond, Bob Dylan and other stuff I didnt even know. People clapped and I made $5 bucks in tips (alright giggity giggity) I may play again next wednesday, hopefully I can start playing out with peeps again, I miss that.

Saturday, Mall Rated it. Went to PP mall and D & B is the devil. Ok its 1 oclock in the afternoon on a saturday, I nor anyone with me had any intention of getting drunk so why cant I come into your establishment to play video games? Thats what I thought. So I had a plan to get someone over 25 to bring me in, after 20 min and failed attempts, I gave up and we left. Went to Fluffs and watched Black Hawk down.
(tv version of course). Home now, and just got my new battery for the phone. The cat pee phone is almost up and running. Battery was just shot from all the acid's lol. I bleached and Febrezed it, it smells quite good. And a new cherry cover, makes it complete.

If you thought peeing your pants wasn't cool..

Oi Dios Mio

Its been a very fun weekend. I got to go visit Walkill on Friday. Which was excellent because ive never been there. Went with meghan, klee, and asha-lawfawnduh-shaniqua-destiny-jamila. Brian Mcbrian gave us the tour. And I kept seeing guys I knew or that I thought I know, which is always fun. Then we hung out in Brians room and he got a hair cut, which looked very good I might add. And then some rednecks showed up and talked about there hunting skills, (noone was impressed).

Saturday slept to an early Noon. Hung around cleaned, then headed up to Olley's for Autumn Fest, although Autumn wasnt there so, Im not sure of the name. It was fun we were on the beach with a fire. That's when things got out of control. Me and Fluff went on a secret mission, to pick up someone. Before we left I went to get my purse to see if i missed any calls. I picked it up and noticed my phone was off. Which is weird, because I NEVER turn off my phone, not even in Hospitals (i aint scared of no DR.) Then I noticed that my phone was WET and SMELLED. So i took the battery out and let it sit on a vent while we picked up Mystery Guest. But picking up the mysery guest wasnt the important part of the story. I find out later from Olley, my worse fears. Olley's Cat's Tag-teamed it and pee'd on my purse. Not only was my purse soaked and smelled like an @$$ but, my phone had this mystery liquid on it. So now my phone shorted out and doesnt work. It makes for a good story, but not really cause im so irritated right now. On a good note the nice lady from verizon transfered my loaner phone over for free (usually $20). Because she said I had a very good story (so mad at her).
Oh well, thers always ebay I guess.

~Jk out~

Oh the mystery guest was Brain McBrian, but i didnt think that was as interesting as cats tagging my purse.

Good evenin'

Feels like sucha long weekend, although I didnt do very much. Work and service on friday then went to k to the lees and watched a movie. Sisterhood of the traveling pants, or i titled it (pants). I heard the books better but who reads those things. I give the movie 8 out of 10 fingers up.

Saturday slept super late. Boys came over for band practice. Got a new song down, sounds good. If we ever finish it ill post it. Then went to Beakers for a bawn fire. Why do they call it bawn fire? If you know please tell me. Hawkins had a sip of mikes and was acting very silly. And Loco Stephanie and her crew were on the tramp, and playing DDR which was funny. Oh and the highlight of the evening was watching foolish boys walking on a door that was on fire. No one was burned, (darn). Then me , klee and the noho girls went on the tramp, where someone who will remain nameless pee'd a little. I cant help it i had a lot of water. haha

Tomorrows spanish meeting and hopefully working on cleaning my room a little bit, (yeah right). Cause im a wishful thinker with the best intentions

The Longest Day of the Year..

Friday was fun, went up to the Greater Fall River area to reconnect with some old friends. I really dont know where I was, I think at one point Taunton and some other parts of Mass im not sure. I hired a personal assistant named Gwen. I'm paying her $5 a week to answer my calls and do my bidding. I gave her the first two weeks off, (im the best boss ever). Watched Kicking and Screaming. Will Farrell is nuts.

Saturday Slept in Cranston and went to the re-build at Cranston Hall. It was really nice and came out really well. Was there until 5 when I had to pick up reba and head to Perks and Quirks to bar-keep. I had so much fun working. I love being able to say that. I really like Bartending, and i think im getting pretty good at it. I made some crazy martinis and attempted Flair. I had support from westerly's finnest, who came in. I think me and Mcgurn may play at the shop next month. Stay tuned Ill let you know.

Sunday- Drove to Boston to picked up the rents from there cruise. Came home and took a coma, (4 hr nap). Then all my wildest dreams came true... I went to a corn maze. And that was it. haha. The Alex's were running through corn and being foolish. Fluffy two minutes in proclaimed, "where am i?" not different from every other night when he says "who are u , where am i"? But it was fun. Itll be better next year (wink) i'm not sure who i just winked too or why. Peace out.

Let the Rain Fall Down..something something

I think that's a Hillary Duff song.

Not a very exciting week. Keeping busy with the normal day to day nonsense. Oh, we had a special Pioneer Day this week on wednesday. And it was quite the success I might add. A total of 52 people went out for different parts of the day. Which is very exciting. I'm finding that I spend more time at my hall then at my house. Go figure.

I got this crazy new matress topper thing with the pillow to match. I'm very excited because it's re-donk-u-lously comfortable. It's the one where you put your hand on it and it sinks in memory foam I think it's called. I just keep calling it the bed of the future or the bed of the atronauts. I'm looking into becoming a spokeswomen.

And I just saw "Batman Begins" again. Three cheers for Christian Bale. Tell him to call me. If you havn't seen this movie, I highly recomend you do. It's quite good. And tomorrow my rents leave for Bermuda. Party? ehh I won't be home this weekend, but there always room for a
corn maze...

Noah's Ark Called

So we had a ridiculous amount of rain this week.

I saw the honorary title play on thursday night. Soo good. We stood about 3 inchs from the stage. And k-2-the-lee requested "snow day" and they played it, which is great because it wasn't on the setlist. I would know because I got the set list and signed. (my original set list was stolen by a very large angry fan). Show was played well and the sing along with BG (brian green) was enjoyed. And then spikes and a piggy back race back to the car.

Saturday went to the 2nd annual three legged race in Bean Town. Which was cancelled due to rain! Instead there was a big party which is always apperciated. And the remains of duct tape from the race were used to decorate out fits. I spelled out Hunter on Hunters arm in tape. He is still waiting for his arm hair to grow back. Party abruptly ended at 12:30 (for reasons I cant disclouse pending investigation). Which was fine I was exhausted. So walked back to where we were staying where I was promised the notebook, which I never watched (darn).

Sunday took TK to a brunch in Attelboro then went to Papa Gino's (mmm). End Scene

A very exciting week.
But an especially exciting week for now I, Jordan K III, am a mature woman, sound in mind and no longer a teenager for I am 20. (when your done laughing your head-off continue reading)

Yes I am excited to not be a teenager anymore, even tho it means my excuses are running out. I. E. Why isnt your room clean? Who ate all the chocolate frosting out of the pan? Whos that boy hiding in your closet? I no longer can answer, i'm sorry its just so hard being a teenager. This will no longer fly.

Oh the band i'm in (j-rod, and master Hawkins) has choosen a name. "Kit-Kats Hazardous Hawks" Which came from all of our last names. I give it a week before its changed again. But at least we have a sweet logo.

And in other news, The mini mortocycle ride's again. I bought purple tassles for it. I need to buy a new headlight bulb which I already went to 5 stores to find this "mystery" bulb. I better do it soon because sparks were coming out of the headlight last night, which i'm pretty sure is not good. At my funeral I want there to be cake and a Dj. That is all.

The Big E

2005-09-30T23:42:00.000-07:00

Oh man so much fun.

For any of you that are not familar with the greater Springfield, Hartford area, there is an event every year called the Big E. Its basically a massive fair of sorts. With every food, game, and ride possible. There was even a very cheesy "scary" house, which for some reason we felt the need to go into.

The highlight of the evening, other then the slushy falling off the top of the ferris wheel. haha. fluffy. Was the carney games. Thers a game where you have to through a ball and hit three blocks off a table. You all have probably seen this. Well, if you win this game, most incredible prizes. Not some cheesy stuffed creature looking like sponge bob, but a motorized scooter or motorized motorcycle. Lafountain aka Fluffy is the grand master flash at this game. Needles to say a few dollars later I was riding my brand new scooter around the park, a few more dollars later and I was riding a new 18mph mini motorcycle.

Can i get an allllllllllllllirghty giggadee giggadee giggadee.

My First Post

A: Very cool.

Anyways welcome to my blog. Ive finally sold out into putting one of these up. But at least I didnt put a up a livejournal or myspace. (no offense to anyone who has one but lets be serious now).
