It's Fun Being Stupid

I was writing in here before and I didn't hear dad come in and he's like "are you on the internet?" and I was worried for a sec but then I'm like "no! Listen!" and I put the phone on hook so he could hear the dial tone. I kind of like being banned from the internet...the risk to my life when I sneak on...intrigue...adrenaline...it kind of gives me a rush.
Anyway, yesterday Zayne and I went to Katherine's grade 8 grad. It was so fun! We were in the front row, and we made these signs and held them up whenever Katherine was onstage (his said "Katherine you're my idol" and mine said "Marry me Katherine! I love you!") and we were trying to make her laugh. And this one kid went by in the procession and we're like "rock on!" and she just laughed. And the school was singing this blessing song or whatever to the grade 8's and Zayne and I were swaying in time to the music and Katherine was trying really hard not to laugh. And there was this little kid who was dancing by my chair and Zayne's like "that kid wants to dance with you," and I'm like "he's my boyfriend."
There was also this little kid who kept yelling "Yaaaaaaaay! Yaaaaaaaaaay!" and I was laughing so hard! I was also asked once or twice whether Zayne was my boyfriend, and once if he was my brother (no to both).
Katherine goes to a Catholic school, so they said this prayer and everyone crossed themselves but me, and Zayne looked like he did that all the time, and I'm like "I'm not Catholic." And he's like "me neither!"
And then we were playing this awesome guitar with three strings. Zayne was being chased by little girls. And I had to go to Katherine's afterwards and someone would pick me up, and on the way to her house we had a very interesting conversation. It went like this:
First, someone asked Zayne about his pants, and he's like:
"These aren't mine. They're Kerri's brother's."
Katherine: "What do you wear normally? Your underwear?"
Maggie: "Why are you picturing him in his underwear?"
Herb: "Because he's so hot!"
[laughter]
Katherine: "Well Dad, I didn't know you swung that way!'
Herb: "I meant from a young girl's point of view."
It was so funny! Katherine got really embarrassed, Zayne got really scared, and then I was like "I'm glad I'm not a part of this conversaton," and Katherine's like "we have to drag you in somehow!"
One the way home we were listening to dad's Ratpack CD and there's this one song by Frank Sinatra that's like "Old Mcdonald had a farm EIEIO. And on this farm he had a chick. EIEIO. And man this chick had lots of curves (or something)" Zayne thought it was funny, but I'm like "that's a really sexist song." And how did girls get the nickname chick anyway? It's not like its a compliment. "You're a fowl with a pointy beak, sharp claws, beady black eyes, and yellow fuzz all over you." Well, thank you. And you are a nice looking rooster as well. And the sad thing is, I like Frankie normally (how can you not love a man with Mob ties?) And dame (there was a song about that too. Those crazy fifties people) I hate that name too. Everytime I hear it, I think of the Hunchback of Notre Dame. Geez.
Rock on dudes!

Bark bark bark. Yeah thats right, thats my imaginary Aibo, I bet you wish you had one. I wish I had a real one, you can program them, so cool.

Definitely enjoying your random rants on this blog, but first let me say I checked your facts missy. Most people write rants when they know they have no idea what they are talking about, but you seem to be rather well informed. Pretty smart it seems. I respect that.

Ok, so what is the dealio with "ciao", I guess you could say the same about "dealio", but how do you pronounce "ciao" Sea-Ah-Oh? Its some sort of closing right?

I think girls are called chicks because apparently chicks are cute animals. Personally I don't like animals, so I'm with you on this one; I have no idea why guys call women/girls chicks, you shouldn't stand for it. If I had to be called any type of animal, I'd probably choose to be called a "Stingray", they are probably the sexiest looking animal I can think of. And, having a series of Corvettes named after you is always cool.

The Lion on an Antelope simile was pretty awesome, I had a pretty vivid mental picture. The fact that it was a fight between you and your sister was a bit wacky, but the subconscious dream generator tends to be that way.

So the line: "close the door, I don't want to hear Lindsay crying" is pretty powerful. Its too bad Star Wars Episode III is already out, this could have been amazing if Anakin said this about Padme, literally, emotionally and figuratively you are closing the door. I dunno if your a fan or have seen it, but Episode III, although a spectacular movie was a bit shy on great dialog, this line would have probably been the highlight.

Sorry about cutting into your study time, but you did call me a cherub, so I don't feel too bad.

So scared... I didn't want to post a long message. The length of my post is likely a good indicator of how hard you're going to attack me with the Grammar Hammer of doom. Its going to be a TKO tonight.
