Hippo Lingo

This week I've heard/learned the meaning of several new phrases I was previously unaware of. I've tried to use them in everyday convos but usually find myself errupting in uncontrollable laughter which is ironic considering the words in consideration. So, here are the words. Learn them, use them, love them, laugh at them.

ROFLcopter

LOLer Skating

Failboat

I'm roflcoptering and loler skating all over the place right now just typing this out!

Windy, with a chance of...BBQ?

This is from our lovely "no-budg" Witchita Falls newstation affiliate. I understand that Thursday there is a 30% chance of showers, but on Friday there is....???

Dreamless

I'm feeling a bit tired lately.
Uninspired and unable to dream.
My mother would probably say that I'm anemic.
But if you think that I'm gonna go get stuck with a needle to find out, you're crazy.

Sicko

Me: "Ugghhh, how can I blogstalk if no one updates on the weekend?!"

Friend: "Well it is the weekend, people probably take a break from blogging on the weekend because they have to get back to their 'real' lives."

Me: "Well, that's what makes me a true blogstalker. I don't take a break on the weekend from my stalking because I'm genuinely interested in knowing what some people are doing every day. I'm a for real stalker!"

Friend: "Gah, you're so hardcore."

Team Chelsia and James!

Wopsle and I are grotesquely obsessed with Big Brother. It would seem inevitable that one of them is going home this week, so in their honor I put a pink stripe in my hair. This picture doesn't really show how pink it is, but trust me, it's awesome.

Also, we're both sending in applications and video tapes to audition for Season 10. Get ready for Team Wopsle! We each have to make a 2 minute long audition tape and are thinking of creative ways to present who we are. Any ideas?

D. Le. Shuz!

Quick! Go to Maggie Moo's and get a heaping helping of their new Grape Bubblegum ice cream. Guaranteed to change your life!

"OMG girlfriend! I just passed my driver's test!"

This past weekend I realized that my driver's license had expired...back in September. Now, see what had happened was, uh, that since I had it renewed right after we got married (almost a year and five months ago, thankyouverymuch) I thought I was good-to-go for another couple of years at least. (Point of Interest: I had one of the old laminated licenses up until I renewed last, yucky.) Well, apparently the expiration date stays the same from when I had first gotten it. So, I had been one of those "illegals" for almost four months now and was informed when I tried to renew today that I would have to first go to the Stephens County Driving Test Office. ErrrrrrrrrrT. Wait just a second, hold up there, you mean, I might have to take some kind of driving test?!?
Turns out no, but I did have to show my passport and got a lengthy lecture on my expired license from the driving instructor who was no less than 109 years old. What does he know about driving anyway? So, I'm legal again and this weekend me and my homies are planning on cruising the drag. Peace out, yo.

COUGH ON, COUGH OFF

I received an early Christmas gift last night from my wonderful husband. I have secretly wanted this item for awhile now and my wish came true at the clap of my hands. The Clapper! You know the 1990's gadget with the "Clap On! Clap Off!" commercial! It really does work and significantly contributes to my laziness of getting up to turn off the light. But you know, after a long hard day of work, it's nice to just give a little clap and POW! the lights are off!

So, last night we tried it out. We said goodnight and I clapped twice to turn out the lights. Well, I have been very sick for about a week now with all sorts of congestion, cough, and sinus issues. I still have a lingering annoying cough that worsens when I'm laying down. Each night I have fallen asleep with a tickle in the throat that causes a raucous of a cough. Just as we were both about to fall asleep though, I must have coughed hard enough to trigger the clapper and, what do you know, LIGHTS ON!
