i was just

in the office and me and my mom were talking about my walking. She did the whole, "I'm proud of you thing" and I kept reminding her I've only been walking for a couple of weeks. Chances are I'll quit when it starts to rain. Anyway, she asked if I bring my cell with me and of course I don't. It weighs my pants down when I run every other block. I should have just said yes because then she was all like, "You don't bring your phone with you! You could get abducted!!!" Um, Mom? Fat girls don't get abducted. Especially in a neighborhood populated by senior citizens. In Salmon Creek. When was the last time there was ever any crime up in these zip codes? Yeah, never.

So Alex and I forced ourselves to go to French class today. Probably not the smartest idea. I basically wanted to rip out the lower half of my body (I hurt my hip yesterday) and I was on some painkillers and I was just super giggly. By the way, yes, I know that is a run on sentence. I do that on purpose because it is the way I talk, and I write the way I talk. Back to my story, Alex and I were just laughing away in class, doodling in each others books. Well, I guess I was doodling in hers and she kept trying to steal my eraser so she could erase some of my wonderfully artistic drawings of stick figures. Madame Blankinship called us out on it and she started calling us infants. She ask Alex how old she was. 16? 17? Well, Alex is 20. Needless to say, she was a little offended /embarrassed. It was funny though because then she started singing, "When I young, I never needed anyone..." It was absolutely hilarious. Since she had been singing that song in Hanna before class started and then it just got stuck in my head all day. And not the good version either. The one by Celine Dion. Yeah. Not so good.

Like I said last night, I went online to see the results of the Men's 4 x 100 freestyle relay. I saw that the US had won so I wasn't going to watch it. But of course I did and it was the greatest race of all time. Even though I knew they won, I got so nervous for them at the end because it looked like Jason Lezak wasn't going to make it there before Alain Bernard. But when he did I was so happy for them I almost cried! I was glad I watched it.
