Mental Health Moment
















As my bff so eloquently stated a few weeks ago:
" wowzee, using your brain gets tiring sometimes..."
Now while her own intelligence could be put up
for debate after a quote like this,
I think there is alot of validity behind the sentiment.

Which is why I am spitting out the following.
because "wowzee, my brain is tired".

1. I am trying to figure out how to construct myself into a giant donut for this tuesday's youth group "fall festival".
any mechanical advice on configuring an outfit of this sort would be much appreciated. (something to consider: I have to take the El to get to destination)

2. it is so freaking cold. while boarding the Western stop tonight after youth meeting, a "gentlemen" hollered at me from across the street, proposing "I'll keep you warm baby, yeah that's right..."
Had it been 2 degrees colder, I think I might have actually taken him up on the offer.
(mom. i am kidding, i wouldn't have...but if hearing real life stories like this makes you want to send me long johns, then i am ok with that....)

3. note to self. the night you wear pig tails, ratty sweater, and clompy boots, is the night a young, georgous brazillian literature professor will sit next to you and dial his sister to talk about that morning's church service. further note: the fact that he caught you in the middle of mowing down on a piece of roommate intended pumpkin pie will not play in your favor.
things to keep in mind, jensen...things to keep in mind.

4. school, i am coming to get you, sooner than you know. just wait for it. i miss you too.

5. in children's church today i saw an eight year old boy eat more goldfish crackers in a two minute period than i could ever hope to eat in my lifetime. it was pretty incredible.


this list is so lame.
i didn't even make it past five
and it is more a diary entry than anything.
shameful.

but weather.com says it is supposed to snow tommorrow.
so i'll consider this my winter lament,
scold myself for a day or two,
and then move on.

you have me cracking up and its great to be smiling so early in the morning.

i will try and envelope a little warmth and sunshine for you but it might get squashed in the post box as all the long johns will be taking up the space.

as for being a donut... take the EL normally but have a pool noodle stuffed into a bag and have a tin of caramel handy. also have an item that will keep the pool noodle tied into a circular shape. when arriving at destination, make a circle with the noodle through your legs and over your head. cover yourself in caramel and proceed to the door. wear a price tag that says "special edition with added appendages aka extra yummy bits. $priceless."

when inside proceed to find the little boy who ate the crackers so quickly and dare him to eat all of delicious you : ) and see how long that takes him.

i have to leave a comment. at the bottom of your post it says '1 comments'. 1 item isn't plural! that was bothering me. so now it will correctly show '2 comments'

have a good day miss jess!

your weird ocd friend. (not that ocd is weird, just that i'm weird about some of my ocd things.)

This is the Brazillian lit professor-- I noticed you. I like pumpkin pie, pony tails, and ratty sweaters. But I don't like doughnuts. Too bad. I thought you were the one.

Missing you more than you can imagine,
School

Steve said...

Misunderstanding... I am a heating contractor on the north side and I install furnaces for a living. I was advertising my services on the El because the economny is so bad.

Chris said...

Lol you sound just how I feel. I'd be pleased u was even able to make cohesive sentences. Thanks for the laugh :)

Chris said...

Ha, and judging from what I just wrote, I can't form cohesive sentences!

your post is hilarious.
so are your dad's comments.
i think you two should co-author a new blog.
"Father-Daughter Banter" perhaps?

i'm a BIG fan of the light stuff like this. no one writes funny like you, Yessica—and that is a COMPLIMENT!
