Phew! Glad that’s over with.

By the way, thanks to everyone who crossed their fingers and such for me on friday. I ended up doing fine on the GRE, I was quite happy (and relieved) about my scores. Didn’t do magnificent, but I surpassed my goal. Now I can finally read Harry Potter instead of studying vocabulary words!

Robin’s birthday

Went to the Bob with Robin and her amalgamation of friends friday night. It was fun! She finally turned effin’ 24.

Test taker, test taker, take me a test

I take the GRE tomorrow at 1:00pm. Everyone cross your fingers, pray, chant…whatever you do.

Actually I’m not that worried about it. I’ve kinda given up on getting brilliant scores, and now I just want to do decent. I’m being realistic about it and about what my scores reflect (basically nothing important). And I want it to be over with because it’s one of the last steps for my application process. Woo hoo!

We were exhausted!

My and Brad’s workout yesterday:

15 minutes walking around the gym
20 minutes playing ping-pong

(He’s getting a credit for this, it’s great!)

Going through old pictures

Finally got some pictures off of Brad’s camera. Thought these were cute.

 

Oh my god, could my niece and nephew be any more adorable? They came to visit me with their aunts awhile ago.

Aren’t the women in my family gorgeous! That’s Kelli, me, Andrea, mom and Emily (drunk bitch!)

Here’s Em before she got wasted. Doesn’t she look amazing! This is at her best friend Kara’s wedding.

My obligatory cute couple picture. This is us on the way to dinner and the symphony. God we’re so sophisticated. Oh wait, no we’re not. I could barely find anything to wear and Brad has a hole in his shirt. That’s my house though. White picket fence and all!

Finally, here’s Brad in a turban made out of our bed sheet, demonstrating our true levels of sophistication.

At the Lions game

Here we are at the Lions game. I was confused about which cat we were cheering for and Brad apparently thought we were going to a college game. Oh hahaha! I’m so hilarious.

Yeah. 

That’s the mean old man who told us to stop holding hands.

“None of that hand-holding stuff. Be a real man.”

Did you know that real men don’t show affection for the women they love? Especially not when watching football. This according to the old man behind us at the Lions game. Fortunately my boyfriend pays no attention to such things, and he continued to hold my hand, rub my leg, put his arm around me and even kiss me (hopefully to the old man’s extreme discomfort).

On a side note, there is a strange noise coming from my desk. My theory: some strange exotic insect has burrowed it’s way under the mess and is trying to escape.

EDIT: the mystery noise was nothing more than air escaping from my water bottle. Dumbass.

So this Jerry Springer show.

I know it’s been on for years, but I don’t think I’ve ever really watched it. Until today. I was home for lunch, flipping around on our six and a half channels, and I see these two somewhat overweight women fighting. Cat fighting. Clawing, scratching, ripping at each others clothes. Within a few seconds, they were both standing there in little more than their bras and mini-skirts.

Meanwhile, they’re yelling a string of expletives that translate into one continuous *bleep* for the home audience. Then one of the women says, rather rehearsedly, “I’m damn sexier than your ugly butt” to which the audience chants “Take it off. Take it off.” And she did, she shed what was left of her shirt. To that, the audience chanted “Go to the pole!” And this woman begins dancing on a stripper pole!

Now the title of the show was “No car, no pants, no nanny” and I’m not exactly sure what that means, but I believe it had something to do with cheating and children or something. So this woman went from yelling at her boyfriend’s ‘mistress’ to dancing on a stripper pole. And the studio audience loved it! What the hell?

I wish I could say I was completely appalled, but I was actually only 90% appalled. 10% of me couldn’t turn the channel until they went to commercial. I hate that show now.
