Revealing what's within

My titas from the States came to visit and they stayed in my room so my mom had it thoroughly cleaned--changed my bed, added new furniture and fixed my mess by placing them in boxes. So anyway, the aunts have come and gone and i am now staying in my refurbished bedroom and while i was dressing up this morning, i accidentally glanced at my newly organized bookshelf. I noticed an unfamiliar book between my Paulo Coelhos and advertising books. To my chagrin, it was 'Finding the boyfriend Within!!!" It was neatly stored in my shelf for the past 3 months! Ever since my aunts stayed in my room!

I knew it i should have burned that book years before! CURSES POOX O KEEFE!!!! CURSES!!!!!!!!!

by the way poox, i just checked, there was no dedication so it really looked like i bought it myself. Hahahaha.

MOO with me!!!!!!!!!!!!

Come brothers and sisters! Come kindred spirits! MOO with me!

Just saw RENT the movie on DVD and there's a part where Maureen was rousing up the Bohemians against their building's foreclosure. And they did it by Mooing as one. This eventually caused a riot. When did Mooing become a cause of bloodshed? Anyway, i just remembered u guys when they mooed. Keep on Mooing everyone! Ü

***************

I'd like to take this opportunity to give my hearty congratulations to the wonderfully unusual couple--Mr. and Mrs. LMNO' Keefe! May the Goddess Mother bless you and may your hamsters flourish forever!

my white-people bridal shower!

Aaron's family threw me a shower lately and I didn't realize that the objective of showers here in the US wasn't to send singledom status off nor welcome the formalization of a sexual partnership, but rather to prepare you for the home you were about to build. They gave me an array of chopping boards, cookbooks, utensils and other appliances (which I returned for cash because in this day and age I've learned that a sturdy home must be founded on well placed investments, over and above cleaning gadgets. Plus I'm just lazy and undomesticated :p).

The only person who had other thoughts was the grandmother. She gave me large aqua-colored underwear (hopefully not a family heirloom).


Exhibit A. A for Aqua Panty

2 other persons misunderstood the occassion: earlier this week I received a joint card from 2 aunts sendng a gift card to accompany their deepest regrets for missing the occassion. The apologies and salutations were written on a greeting card that read "babies are a joy..."
