Is 130 a significant number?

Blog post number 130! I think it's safe to say that at least 70 of those were probably interesting. :)

Chopped off my hair... the feeling of air on my neck is nice.

So last night, a massive group of my friends (don't laugh! I have lots of friends!! :)) and I saw Inception, and it was awesome (especially the ending), but a tad bit trippy and long for me... it was interesting enough to make me concentrate though, which is good. I will never sit in the front row again though. Ever.

Well there you go Jo.

Genius College Friends

So today I got to hang out with some friends from college who were passing through. We got ice cream at abbotts, because one of the girls had never heard of it, and had some amazingly entertaining conversation (and some about soccer!) Here's a sample, for your entertainment:

Shelby (pointing out window): "Look, a blue-footed boobie!!"
Allison: "That's a seagull!!!"
Shelby: I know, i just wanted to say it."
Chorus: hahahahahahahaha
Brittany(now forever known as Boo): "Shelby, what's a boobie?" (she said this with an entirely straight face. not even a smirk...like it was totally a serious question)
Shelby, in a stroke of comedic genius, just looks down at her chest. Laughter explodes. The abbotts people glare.

Don't worry, we later told her a blue footed boobie was a type of bird.

Independence Day

So, I haven't blogged in a while...I've been kinda busy...but mostly lazy :). At least I didnt make any overzealous promises (and put them as my blog title!) like 98 posts 100 days lol no offense Meredith.

So anyway, July 3rd is pretty much my fav day of the year. It always rocks. At the end of the day when ur washing off all the sweat, bug-spray, chlorine and grass stains, you can't help but think wow, today was pretty awesome.

This year my family went to Watkins Glen State Park, swam in the pool, explored redneckville (aka the town on race day lol... such and  abundance of tie-dye and wolf t-shirts) and then got ice cream at "Mr. Twisty's" in Dresden.

Then I raced back, picked up Joanna, got lost, and went to fireworks, where my friends and I played some frisbee, then sat around for a long while and ooh-ed and ah-ed at all the pretty fireworks (which set off my ADD like you wouldn't believe!) And it only took Mary and I like 20 mins to get out this time!!

Return to Keuka (only sorta thankfully!)

So now that I know that Joanna reads this blog religiously ("Only when I'm bored!!" sure. nice cover.) I can't really say anything bad about this trip...lol jk, it was awesome.

So Joanna, Haley, Leslie, Nicole, and I went to this awesome lakeside cabin/boathouse (believe me, establishing what to call this mysterious building was a lot harder than you would think.)

So Joanna, Haley and I arrived first, and subsequently got the grand tour from our wonderful Danish host, Jorgen Overgaard. I kid you not, the man's name was Jorgen Overgaard, with two A's. Two. He had the most hilarious accent, and the most interesting way of explaining things...for example, the toilet situation. Apparently there was only so much water and an iffy septic system, so we had two rules for that:

1. No tampoons in the toilet. (that is how he said it, tampoon, like harpoon, and it took me about halfway through the rest of the tour to figure out he meant tampon. lol)

2. this is not so much a rule as a warning... the pipes make a rawr rawr rawr sound. Not only did Jorgen do his dinosaur impression once, but twice. With a straight face. Not even a chuckle. It took every ounce of willpower in my body not to laugh at the man while he was standing in front of me. Don't worry, I laughed later. A lot.

So after Jorgen (finally) left,  we proceeded to waterlog our brains with lake water for the next 3 days. We named some fishies (spot and morgan freeman were my favs. they were brothers.) and noodle jousted on the giant raft for svimming (that's how it is pronounced) of which I was the champion!

So yeah, there you go, I finally blogged again. Now Joanna can occupy her time.
