Hello from BG! I've been here since Sunday, although I've been so busy it doesn't seem like I've been here for nearly a week... Tonight was really my first night staying home. I am leaving at 9:00, but I haven't gone anywhere today, and it's been wonderful!

Christmas was good. My family ventured to the megaopolis known as Pemberville. We ate a ton of food, and played quite the spirited game of Catch Phrase. My cousins were even halfway civil towards me. There was snow on the ground, and the air was actually pretty cold...it was a pretty good day. No fun stories though, nothing even close to unusual or amusing happened. So sad...

A week from tomorrow I will have to get back on a plane and return to Leavenworth...my sentence isn't over..ha ha... My flight here reminded me of the fact that I hate being stuck in the hollow metal tube with wings flying through the sky. But I really do prefer it to the train, the trip is so much shorter. I'm just hoping that getting through security won't be unbearable during my trip back. I understand completely, the reason they have to do all the security stuff, I just wish there was a faster more efficient system. I was very lucky on the way here because I got to the airport early enough to not have to stand in line. It wasn't bad at all, but fifteen minutes later the line was practically out the door and on the curb. Why can't world dominators as wonderful as me just get full security clearance...it would make sense to me!

If I cough one more time I am performing a lung transplant right in my bedroom. I don't know where I'm going to get the new lungs, but I will find them....somewhere, somehow...they're out there.

So do you think I've overdone it on the quizzes lately? I just didn't feel like typing I guess. So I use my lifeless Friday night to do it. What else is new? At least tomorrow I'm getting out for awhile, and then Sunday I'm jumping on a plane bound for Detroit and then Toledo where my Christmas festivities will begin! Woo hoo! I have way too much to do between now and then, but I'm not very motivated at the moment.

That's it! I need a scalpel! Cut me open now, I'm ready to give them up!

Sweet Weasels of Atlanta!!!

(Isn't that ingenious? I just made that up off the top of my head!) Anyway, just got done dealing with the wrath of a near two year old having a tantrum. I was trying to get him dressed, and I guess my ideas conflicted with his wishes. There's nothing like having a screaming little boy clawing at you, and kicking while you try to lay him down on the changing table. I ended up having to lay him on the floor and leave him there with absolutely nothing on because he wouldn't even let me put a diaper on him. This was the second 30+ minute fit today...I don't know how many more of these I can deal with before the evening. Somtimes I wonder if I'm really supposed to be doing this job....

Oh! I would write more, but the little monster's awake again. Maybe we can have a peaceful couple of hours or so. Hopefully his mother will stay out of the way! I will write more later!

So I forced myself to leave the house today. It took me awhile to unearth my car underneath the snow and ice, but I did it. I borrowed an ice scraper and some gloves (I had to buy some today because I always lose the pair I used the year before) from Sydney and Tim, and hiked out there to rediscover good ole Cassidy. It made me very cheerful when my feet sank in the snow, there really is about six inches out there! I thought Tim was just being whiny and exaggerating! The snow accumulation is from two snowfalls a few days apart, but I didn't realize there was that much! It's finally December! So yes my car did start, and after about ten minutes of scraping through a sheet of ice, and brushing the powdery stuff off my windshield I was off. I only went to Sonic for lunch (mmm Sonic!), Hallmark, and Wal Mart, but considering it's been about five days since I've been outside, that was tiring enough for me.

I have reaffirmed my hatred for Wal Mart at Christmastime. (Actually Wal Mart at anytime is quite annoying) I think the entire town of Leavenworth was there. Actually it wasn't THAT bad, but it was crowded enough, and I was getting kind of irritated with the parents who were letting their four year olds push the carts by themselves, and not paying any attention to them as they plowed into people and store displays. Then there were the teenagers hovering by the car stereo section (which I didn't even know existed at the store) and turning the volume up as loud as it would go so that that entire half of the store was blessed with the sounds of P Diddy or whoever it was on the station they were listening to. I did get out of there with most of what I went in there for though. I bought shiny blue wrapping paper because it was not red or green. So that's what I'm wrapping the presents that go to the people in this house with. I'll have to buy more when I get home since I can't take wrapped packages on the plane, and I don't want to try to fit the paper roll in a bag.

My goodness why in the world am I writing about Wal Mart and wrapping paper...I'm so boring. I think I'm just really tired. Maybe I'll go have a nap, and enjoy the fact that I have about 16 hours until I begin another work week. It is the last one before I leave though!! Woo hoo!

If ever I have been absolutely crazy bored, it's tonight. Well at least it feels that way. I want to get in my car and go somewhere, but it's buried under six inches of snow (yes snow!!! ) , and I just don't feel like going out in the cold right now. I'm not even sure the sad little vehicle will start, I haven't driven in a few days due to being ill.

I've tried calling a few people, but no-one's home because everyone else has lives. I need to find something to do. There has to be something...

Sick, sick, sick! That is my current status...I think I just have a nasty cold, but I did think I had the flu at one point today. I've been miserable, and it sucks...okay I'm done whining now!

I get to go home in nine days! Yes I know I was just home less than two weeks ago, but I'm very excited about going again. I'm not so excited about living in our overcrowded house, but seeing family and friends will make up for that. I am flying this time, since the train was a trifle inconvenient for my employers who had to pick me up. It was a half hour late and I had to wait another half hour for baggage. Really that doesn't sound all that horrible, but when it's 11:45 by the time you're able to leave the station, and you live 45 minutes away, and you have to get up before 6am...it just isn't practical. So I'm flying which will take about four hours total (layover included) instead of 16, and believe it or not, I think Detroit Metro is more exciting than Union Station in Chicago. Granted if I were brave enough to leave the station I would find more to do than I would find at Metro which is basically in the middle of a field, but the airport itself has more to do. But there won't be any interesting Amish/Mennonite people to look at...they're always on the train, every train trip I've taken...kind of interesting.

We got our first "major" snow of the season this week! Words cannot express how excited I am! It's only three inches, but three inches is more than zero!!! It was kind of nuts because we were having heavy thunderstorms that day, and then we got the snow overnight...and I thought Ohio weather was crazy! I think it even thundered a little while it was snowing...silly Kansas and Missouri weather. So everything is pretty now, and it finally looks like December, and it should stay that way for awhile. I've also been informed that I will see lots of snow come January and February, because that's how it works here...fine with me.

Well I need to go to bed. I am determined to be healthy by morning, so I can work. I had to take part of today off because I was in so much pain, and I just couldn't do my job. I don't really feel all that bad about that since Sydney is still home, and should be able to handle both Jimmy and Molly, and I really didn't feel bad once Tim got home. I still got a bit of an air that I was dissappointing them...but oh well. Their children should not be around me right now, if they get sick it could be a lot worse for them. So anyway, must get better by tomorrow. Good night!

Okay, if anyone out there can tell me why in the world I saw sparkling deoderant yesterday I would love to know. Why would someone buy that? So what if your armpits sparkle, does anyone really want to see or know that...I don't think so! I can understand sparkling lotion, shower gel, hairspray, nail polish...but deoderant???? Some things never cease to amaze me.

I went to an SCA meeting last night, it was so much fun. These people are nuts, but I like them, and want to be one of them. They're very accepting, genuine, fun people, I could have walked in there with plaid hair, multiple piercings, and stark naked, and they wouldn't have batted an eyelash...not that I'm ever going to do that by the way! And they're going to teach me how to sew and make garb!! THAT is exciting! I can see it now, along with my knitting escapades ( which i haven't really done much of) I will be sewing like a maniac, and make myself an entire wardrobe of medieval garb! Woo hoo! The things that make me happy...amazing!

You are Form 3, Unicorn: The Innocent.

"And The Unicorn knew she wasn't meant to
go into the Dark Wood. Disregarding the advice
given to her by the spirits, Unicorn went
inside and bled silver blood.. For her
misdeed, the world knew evil."


Some examples of the Unicorn Form are Eve
(Christian) and Pandora (Greek).
The Unicorn is associated with the concept of
innocence, the number 3, and the element of
water.
Her sign is the twilight sun.

As a member of Form 3, you are a curious
individual. You are drawn to new things and
become fascinated with ideas you've never come
in contact with before. Some people may say
you are too nosey, but it's only because you
like getting to the bottom of things and
solving them. Unicorns are the best friends to
have because they are inquisitive.

Yes I'm in Ohio, I survived the train ride, and even managed to make a new friend! Isn't that special? It's been good to be home, and I keep forgetting that I'm leaving again on Sunday...only to come back again in about 20 days. I will have to whip up some train stories and post them later this week, there were some interesting happenings, nothing huge, but enough for me to write a story about! I'd do it now, but I simply must go to bed. I don't get to sleep as late as I want to tomorrow!

In twelve hours I will be riding in a car traveling towards the Amtrak station in Kansas City! I'm getting away, praise God!!!!! It has been a very rough and stressful week, and I'm looking forward to the much needed break. I can already feel the tension starting to diminish....

So today Jimmy and I went down to Crowne Center, for those of you who have never been here, Crowne Center is basically a big shopping mall in the heart of KC. But this is a cool mall, it's full of specialty stores and stuff that you can't find everywhere, especially a place called Fritz's Union Station. Fritz's is a railroad themed restaurant that is usually full of children. (Today was no exception either!) You're seated in booths that are supposed to make you feel like you're on a train, some of the booths even have windows with scenes behind them. You figure out what you want, and call in your order on a telephone at your table. Then a bit later a model train comes around the tracks and drops your food on a dumbwaiter that is lowered down so you can retrieve the food! It's really cute, and Jimmy loves it there. The constant activity keeps him entertained, and the food is stuff he'll eat. Not incredibly healthy, but good stuff! So I had a lot of fun watching his eyes get big as the trains would come by our table. Who would have ever thought you could have so much fun having lunch with a two year old!

So that's about as exciting as my life gets, again I'm leaving to go back to Ohio tomorrow! I have a feeling that it's going to be very odd. I've never gone home just to visit before. It will be nice to be able to sleep in for a week, and not have a small child to look after! And I should be ready to come back by the 30th, at least the grandparents will be gone! If only they would have left like last week! If you care to hear more about that just ask....

Well I need to get packing! I've put things off long enough! Have a fabulous weekend!

Okay I feel the need to announce the joy going on in Leavenworth with the blogging community! The world has a new person! Her name is Molly Anne Gilhool, and she was born at 8:41 this morning to the people I work for. Jimmy is now a big brother! The baby is beautiful of course, and mom is doing well! We went and saw them this afternoon, it was so much fun! They will come home Monday, and a new chapter in our lives will begin! How cool!

That's about as exciting as life gets at the moment. Although I am learning how to knit...can you see me knitting? I can't, which is probably why I suck at it! But then again, I could become a knitting maniac, wouldn't that be interesting! Everyone will start getting mishapen sweaters and caps for their birthdays. I could be pretty dangerous with a few balls of yarn and a new learned skill! Before you know it I will be knitting afghans, mittens, sweaters for the cat I could go nuts! I'll figure out how to knit a radio somehow conducting electricity through wool yarn...yeah, oh the things I'll invent! I could become rich and famous, you'll all say you knew me when...and I'll be sitting at the head of my knitting empire in my knitted mansion with my knitted husband and knitted children....okay I'm getting a little weird.
'
Next week at this time I will be on a train nearing Toledo Ohio where my parents will be waiting to retrieve me from the station. I will be going back to Ohio to visit instead of coming back from a visit. It will be very odd I think. This will be a first for me. I've been away from home for three and a half months now, and I'm adjusting quite well. Now it's time to go back and see how life is going where I left it. Craziness. I will keep you posted!

On November 11, 2003 at 0100 Isabel A. Deer of Moose Lake MN, met her sudden end on south bound I-35. Known to her friends as I-dog, and Dizzy Izzy, Isabel was the black sheep of her Moose Lake native family. A family friend described Izzy as "a little crazy, always living on the edge, Izzy was known to mingle with the much feared Duluth Deer flocks despite the wishes of her parents to remain closer to home." On the evening of her death Izzy had left her family's home in the woods of Moose Lake telling her parents she was gong to visit some friends less than a mile away. It is believed now that she was actually planning on hitchhiking to Minneapolis where some of her Duluth friends were gathering to meet with other Deer gangs. She was standing the left lane of southbound I-35 when a Chevy Celebrity named Andrew carrying two young women who shall remain nameless emerged from the thick fog hitting Izzy head on killing her instantly. Isabel's father and mother John and Doe were notified later that night by a neighbor who had discovered her on the side of the road. The family refused to comment. There will be no memorial service due to the current huting season, local flocks are asked to please go on with their normal lives and steer clear of the numerous hunters, and please keep all children away from the road.



So yeah, a bit of excitement last night after another spontaneous jaunt up to Duluth. We were both pretty shaken up, I think I may have been a little more traumatized than Ruthanne, but then again I could be wrong, as we both show such feelings in very different ways I think. We had a good time in Duluth though! We were only there a whole half hour if that, but hey it's tradition! We always just randomly decide to go to Duluth when I'm here, and it's almost always later at night so we don't get up there until about 11:00, and then don't get back to Minneapolis till after one or two! And why do we do it, you ask? BECAUSE WE CAN!!!

I leave here tomorrow to go back to Leavenworth, I would really rather stay, but I can't be here forever. I have a two year old who needs a nanny, and a baby coming that I want to be there for. Remember these are not my children! : ) It will be good to be back home, but I wish that we could just eliminate the entire state of Iowa and bring Minnesota down to border Missouri then I would only be a few hours away instead of nearly seven. Or maybe we could have Minneapolis and KC swich places then I could be here in less than an hour! Hmmm....why can't I figure out how to do this?

Yes I see the connection with all of those clearly! Well at least it made my giggle!

I have my second and final first aid class tonight, I can't wait for it to be over. For some odd reason I just don't enjoy sitting in a room with six other people who do not want to be there, listening to a hyper serious nurse lecture at us for four hours about chest compressions and proper bandaging techniques. Not that it's not important, it's really good to know these things, this is just the fourth or fifth time I've gone through this class. It comes with the job choice. I did keep myself entertained with the video, gotta love bad acting and accidents every thirty seconds. It was just a bad day at that daycare let me tell you. When at least seven children need CPR or mouth to mouth something is just wrong! And I got to demonstrate the Heimlich on this random guy in our class. I didn't want to get paired up with the only boy, but I did. And then he had to do the same to me, and I think he thought I was actually choking, because he tried to squeeze my vital organs out. At least we only had to do the Heimlich...it could have been a lot worse! I do love the new mannequins for the CPR section, when my dad used to teach the class he would bring home these full sized rubber people in jumpsuits, with realistic weight. We would always play on them and contort them into crazy positions when dad wasn't home. Ah those were the days! But they've had some budget cuts recently I'm afraid. Because now you get a plastic head of a person who is very pigment deprived and has a tiny hole where the mouth is, and that head is attached to a foam flap acting as the torso with a plastic bag for lungs and an accordian like thing for the compressions. First of all, when you try to do CPR on these things, you can hardly keep proper hand postion because they slide everywhere and the heads pop off creating even more of an emergency. They're really annoying, and do nothing to help with mimicking a real situation. At least with the babies, they have arms and legs, yes they're very light and decapitate easily too, as one girl found out when she went to give the back blows for the baby choking section. That would be so terrible, you try to help this poor baby get a piece of food out of her mouth so she can breathe, and her head falls off! The baby mannequins are very plastic and very silver with a blue foam flap covering the plastic bag acting as their lungs. If I remember correctly I do have a blog entry about my CPR class experiences last year for my former job, and I described them as alien babies, well these were the same ones. Bartholomew came back to see me! So anyway, it's all over tonight, and then I will be able to save anyone's life on a whim or something!

Well I should be off to Minneapolis this weekend to hang out with Ruthanne! Actually I'm not leaving until Sunday, but if I don't write for a few days, I'm sure I'm doing something productive!

I really should be cleaning my room, but my computer was just calling my name and saying...BLLLOOOOGGGG!!!!! Really it was! So I had to listen, because when my computer gets angry it's not a pretty sight!

So it's Saturday night, 8:15, and I'm sitting in my room with nothing to do. I babysat for awhile tonight, so my employers could spend some much needed time together, and that was good. But now I'm bored, and wish that I had somewhere to go. I spent last night passing out candy to greedy little children dressed in various costumes. Some of them were really cute, some of them were not! But there was one group of girls that I found fairly amusing. They were about 11 or 12, and very blonde, the conversation went something like this...

Girl 1 : You have a NICE house!

Me: Uh thanks!

Girl 1: Do you have like servants and stuff?

Me: NO...but I'm the nanny.

Girl 1: You ARE???? Whoa! What do you do??

Me: I take care of the children when the parents are working.

Girl 1: Are they rich?

Me: Not really.

Girl 1: Well the people in that house over there have servants. I should know, my school took a field trip there, and it was so huge.

Girl 2: No, that isn't the Carroll Mansion, you didn't go there.

Girl 1: Yuh-huh!!! They have servants, and they're really rich.

Girl 2: No, you went to the Carroll Mansion.

Then the girls continued to argue down the steps and back out to the sidewalk. They were pretty funny. I guess our house is big, and we do have servants quarters, although Tim and Sydney occupy them. And to have a nanny is a little rare, and a lot of people relate it to being rich and high class...even know this family really isn't. And I'm about as normal as they come...well maybe not....

I went to Wal-mart today, I hate Wal-mart. It was so crowded, and I had this stupid idea that I would drop my pictures off and wander for an hour. This was a dumb idea because #1 I had to deal with all the people who frequent the establishment and #2 If you put me in a store and just have me wander aimlessly for an hour, I'm bound to buy more than I came for. So I bought my batteries, socks, heat wrap for my knee, and pens that I intended to buy, but I also came out with Mountain Dew, a Lord of the Rings Poster, turtle beanie (it's REALLY soft!), pop tarts, an address book, and garlic pills (someone told me to try them, they help lower blood pressure) . You know, the necessities in life...bad Tracy! This budgeting adventure is really not working, but I have to keep trying.

I get to go home in 21 days! I'm so excited! I never thought I would say that, but I am. On the 22nd I will get on a train and head towards Toledo. 16 hours later I will arrive, and go home with my parents for a whole week! Don't get me wrong, I love it here. I'd stay here forever if I could, but I do miss home. I miss my friends, my family, my dogs, my cat...I'll have to leave poor Josiah here while I'm gone, but I'm sure he'll be okay. He doesn't think much of me anyway.

Well I should get cleaning. This room won't clean it self, and if I don't do it soon it's going to get beyond my control. Will I ever grow out of this extreme disorganization thing, it doesn't seem to matter if i really work on it, things just go nuts...ugh!

Today Jimmy discovered the world of paint. We went out and bought clear glass plates, and I helped him put his hand and fingerprints on them (with the paint, he had no problem putting fingerprints on them without!) and then I let him add his own personal touches. My toddler began his own dinnerware line within minutes it was amazing. So his parents will have two signed originals when they come home today. It was fun. We also discovered the fun of shaving cream, which was more amusing for me than him. I put some on this tray, and he just stared at it, when I put his hands in it he about had a nervous break down. I think it scared him. He thought I had turned his hands into marshmallows or something. So we'll have to try it again another time. Yes I am slowly becoming super nanny, just don't call me Mary Poppins!
I decided to go try a new restaurant yesterday. I visited the Sante Fe Depot Diner, and it was good eatin let me tell you! Great food, great prices, and the waitresses called you sweetie, hunny bunny, and other forms of sappy endearments. But the thing I noticed the most was how odd it felt to eat alone in a sit down type place. I've only done it one other time and I don't really count it because there were only two other people in the restaurant at the time, and it was in a hotel on my way out here. But I went in there yesterday, with my bookbag with my journal and Bible in it, and sat down at a table for two all alone. And I was fine with it. (yes I'm aware that I'm starting my sentences with and and but! ) People just stared at me as if my hair were plaid or something...it may have looked like that actually I need to dye it again! I ate my food, looked around a bit, wrote for awhile, enjoyed some time alone, and then left, but people were just staring the whole time. It was weird. I guess when I think about it, restaurants are generally places people go in at least pairs. The tables are normally set up for at least two people so it is a little weird to see someone sitting alone. But then I also thought about how it would be so out of our society's comfort zone to offer to sit with someone who was by themselves, or to invite them over to your table. Granted, nine times out of ten the person flying solo would decline the offer, maybe... We don't want to butt into people's lives, and that's probably okay, but I'm sure there are some people who are genuinely lonely out there who wouldn't mind if someone tried to butt in. I don't think I even would have objected to someone sitting down with me yesterday, it may have scared me a little at first knowing me. But it would have been nice to have someone to talk to. It's interesting that we are so into getting along with people, and giving peace a chance, and we would rather stare at person sitting alone in a restaurant than maybe reach out and try to get to know them. I think someday when I'm rich, famous, and have some time I will open up my own restaurant. I'll call it something cheesy like Table for two or more, or Two's company, three's even more...or something weird like that. People who come in alone would be seated with someone else who came alone, or with a pair or something. A restaurant that promotes getting to know people...hmmm.... It probably wouldn't last a week, but it's a fun thought. Someday...
Okay I've went on about that long enough, it was just one of my observations from yesterday, those happen from time to time. My brain does work in spurts! : ) Leavenworth is a good place to observe things. There are a lot of very interesting people here. I guess if you live in Kansas you have to do something to make it interesting.
Well Jimmy is napping, and it would be great if I could get a quick nap in as well before he wakes up more energetic than he was when he went down. If this ends up being the case, he will kill me before the day is out. So I will sign off here. I will try to be more frequent in my blogging. Try is the key word here!

So I woke up at 5:45 this morning, and got out of bed and walked down the hall to check if Jimmy was awake. He wasn't, so I wandered back to my room to get a little more sleep. As I went to step into my bedroom, I saw this little dark shadow dart back and forth across my path. I stared at the threshold for a second trying to convince myself that it was just my eyes, when I saw it happen again. I flipped on my light in time to see a little pink tail disappearing under my piano. I had been greeted by a mouse, a rodent that I didn't own and that wasn't welcome in my room. I have to admit though, since having Josiah (and what a labor it was...) I have grown less afraid of mice, but I still don't like them near me. I figured I had no chance of catching this little animal since he was much faster than me and wasn't about to let me come near him. So I told Sydney about the visitor, put my mighty sheep slippers on, and went back to bed. I haven't seen Issac since...yes his name is Issac. Remember Agatha the spider, Hubert and Claudette the crickets, and Gomer the Groundhog...so you don't remember Gomer, but he lives in the shrubs next to the house. Matthew the fox shows up every once in awhile, and last night we smelled Penelope the skunk, hopefully she won't be back for a visit anytime soon. Every animal has the right to a name, and I'm the one to give it I guess.
So that's my story, I was actually planning on a more exciting one, but I'm not energetic enough to do it right now. It's been a long, but good week, and I'm so happy that I get to sleep in tomorrow!

Here's how the cookie crumbles
Thu Oct 2, 9:45 AM ET Add Offbeat - AFP to My Yahoo!



LONDON (AFP) - Scientists in Britain have discovered why biscuits seem to break so easily.


Using sophisticated laser techniques, physicists at the University of Loughborough, in the north of England, found that a biscuit develops "fault lines" a few hours after it comes out of the oven.


As it cools down, it picks up moisture around the rim, causing it to expand -- while at the same time, moisture at the centre makes it contract.


The result is a build-up of strain forces which pulls the biscuit apart, making them vulnerable when handled, moved or packaged.


Doctoral student Qasim Saleem said the findings -- published Thursday by the scientific journal Measurement, Science and Technology -- could revolutionize the cookie industry.


"This will help biscuit manufacturers adjust the humidity or temperature of their factory production lines to change the cooling process in such a way that the biscuits won't break up due to normal handling, and hence producing the perfect biscuit," he said.


The Biscuit, Cake, Chocolate and Confectionery Alliance, an industry group, puts the size of Britain's biscuit industry at 1.82 billion pounds (2.59 billion euros, 3.03 billion dollars) in turnover terms.

Wow! Science has come a long way...

I would like my nanny to be a member of the family. I will treat her as the respected older daughter of my younger boys.

Okay...ooh give me that job, I want to be paid $400 a week to be an older daughter to younger boys! I just thought this was funny, I think I know what the person meant, but it was entertaining anyway! : ) Just for the record, I am not looking for another nanny job, I just like to go back to the websites from time to time and see what's out there. So far I've discovered that I still have quite a good deal...not that I ever doubted that!

Yes Tracy is still in Kansas. Nothing has changed really, no friends, no life, but still loving my job. I'm checking out a new church on Sunday, and it looks like I'll have a better chance at meeting people at this one. It's a bit smaller than the current one I'm at, and they have a small group program which is always good. The only negative thing, is that it's in Kansas City, and about a 45 minute drive. But I'm willing to do it if it means that things will get better out here. If God wants me there, then I will be there!

So next time I write, I will tell a story...I think this blog is getting a little dry! We can't have that now can we??

Okay kids, it's story time! I got my first speeding ticket yesterday. Not a happy thing. I was just out driving around, minding my own business when the flippy flashy lights started to blind me from behind. I uttered a choice word and pulled over. Now let's pause for a moment to review the previous times Tracy has been pulled over by the flippy flashy lights....picture it Wooster St. 1997...a young girl driving home after a horrendously long day of drive thru madness at one of the three local Burger Kings. She can still hear the unmerciful bing in her ear as car after car comes thru to order the incomparable delacacies that only true burger royalty can offer. She's exhausted, aching, a trifle insane, but she runs one last errand before driving home. She has to fill up the gas tank. It's about eight thirty, and dark, and she feeds the car, and pulls back out onto Wooster street to begin her triumphant drive homeward. She gets less than a quarter of a mile down the street when she sees the flippy flashy lights. In a panic she pulls to the right and stops, hoping that they weren't meant for her. When she sees that they are, she immediately bursts into tears and starts to hyperventilate. The officer walks over to the weeping girl. He explains that her lights weren't on, and he just wanted to make sure she wasn't drunk. He is immediately concerned about the hysterical girl in the driver's seat who is apologizing profusely. He asks for her license and registration, she opens the glove compartment, really not sure where the registration is since she's never had to get it out before. She proceeds to hand him the entire contents of the glove compartment including a red velvet hair scrunchy that hung by a single strand of her reddish brown hair. The officer smiles and retreives the registration explaining that it's all he needs and hands the remaining contents back to the distraught maiden. He leaves her to retreat back to his car, the girl, still quite out of sorts waits for her doom. Will she go to jail? Will she be handcuffed? Beaten? Executed? As the panic rises in the girl's heart, the officer returns and hands everything back. He's only going to give her a warning, he sees that this is a first time occurence, and she's obviously upset enough. He tells her to calm down and drive home, get some rest he says and then walks away shaking his head....true story....how pathetic am I? : ) I will spare you the other story, because I don't feel like writing it out!
So anyway the officer came over to me last night, I greeted him with a shy smile and he nodded his head back. He explained to me that I was going 49 in a 30, my first instinct was to disagree with him, but I didn't think that Tim would want to pick me up at the justice center, so I said "Okay, I guess I missed the sign, it looked like at least a 45 zone to me." I explained that I was new here, and not familiar with the strange speed limits, this didn't impress him and he took my stuff back to his car and wrote me up a ticket for $120!!!!! What, was I weaving in and out of cars too? I mean come on! $120 is a ton of money! This is Kansas, not California! But I took it with a smile and a thank you, because he had done me a favor by shaving two miles off the speed limit so I wouldn't have to pay $150 instead, and I went on my merry way. Sydney thinks I should go to court, it is my first ticket, and my driving record has been completely clean for almost four years now. I have to think about it for a week or so, I'm still rather emotional about it! If I had been knowingly speeding I would have thought it completely justified, but the last sign I had seen was for 50mph since I was just coming off a country road. Damn Nazis! People were passing me right before he pulled me over, why didn't he get them! Did I have a neon sign over my car that said "Pick me! Ooh pick me!!!
So yeah, that's my most recent adventure in the land of Kansas. I just got my Kansas license two days ago, I'm now an official resident. It's really scary! Who would have ever thought I would end up here, and actually like it for the most part?

So here I am in Kansas! It's not at all like I imagined it, but I think that's because we're on the East side near Kansas City Missouri...There are hills here, the town I'm in is not too shabby, I'm less than an hour away from Kansas City, the house we're in is beautiful, I can't think of many negative things to say about the situation. My days are long, but not at all boring, and the child I'm caring for is too cute for words. The family I'm living with is super nice, I've fit in just fine. Life is good out here...other than the fact that I'm up to my ears in debt, but I'm trying not to worry about that too much at the moment. I need to focus on adjusting, make some money, and then I will be able to take care of things!
I will have to write more later....need to go do something productive...

It's very difficult for people to sleep with you around and sometimes you just make people outright nervouse and anxious.

    Polar Bear Turns Purple After Medication


    Oh that's sad! It won't let me show the picture! I just thought that this was amusing! Some vets sprayed this medicine on a polar bear to treat a skin disorder, and his fur turned purple!

    I have finally returned from my adventure to Minnesota! And what an adventure it was! We saw the Spam museum, the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota, and the entertaining border crossing at International Falls. It consists of a man in an orange t-shirt, with a clipborad, sitting in a folding chair...that's some high tech security! The whole nine days was wonderful! Now it's back to real life....yuck!

    So here I am at the union, on the campus of BGSU reliving my fond memories of my college days.....yeah right! Actually I'm sucking of their resources, printing out my Human Biology lecture notes here, because it's fast and doesn't use the ink in my printer ink thingys....sorry I just can't come up with the right word at the moment. I probably could get into trouble if anyone cared to catch me, but I would argue that because of their stupid rules, I have to take this stupid online class from another school, and since I have to pay $450 to do that, the least they could do is provide me with paper and ink for my notes.... Yes I know I wouldn't win, but I would argue anyway. God, I love this place!
    So anyway, Tracy is a tad stressed right now, because Tracy's finances are in such scary shape that she's surprised that the cops haven't hunted her down and carried her away. Actually they're probably not that THAT bad, but they're bad enough. So if anyone out there knows of any great ways of making money fast (preferably $100+ at a time) I would love to hear from you. Yes I have a job, but I'm not able to work enough at the moment because I'm merely a substitute. Plus they only pay bi-weekly, so I have to wait 14 days for the meager amount to end up in my checking account. I'll be okay....
    The fire alarm just went off, but I think it was only a test, so I'll just stay here, and in the event that there really was a fire, Hey! I'll just go down with the building...that would solve everything at this point....or would it?

    What Type of Villain are You?

    Happy Sunday! I'm taking a break from the cleaning out of the garage....woo hoo....our garage is such a mess. What's even worse is that I'm supposed to get rid of stuff....I already went through everything, and threw away what I didn't want. There just isn't room for everything though....this is sad...
    I had a very interesting dream last night....Hitler was in it. Call me Charla! Hitler had come back from the dead to convert us all to Nazis....he was at my house. Yes I had Hitler in my house, and he didn't like me. I was rebellious in his eyes, and I wouldn't convert. He locked me in my room, and went through the house spreading his gospel of fascism...I was afraid that he would kill me, so I pretended to change my mind. We suddenly became friends, and he eventually decided to drop the Nazi get up, and become a Christian....wow! I "evangelized" Adolf Hitler successfully! Who can say that? Then the scene changed, but I was still in my room with a bunch of people. I knew some of them (though who they were I could not tell you). A Sasquatch (spelling?) a.k.a Big Foot, had come to Bowling Green, and decided to explore my house. Wow....I had Hitler, Big Foot...who's next? This animal was attacking everyone, and we were all hiding in my room. We knew that he would eventually get in, so we all went out onto the porch roof which was a lot bigger than it is in real life. There just happened to be people there with ladders that we all had to climb down. Then suddenly I was on campus at some 20 story dorm, and the Sasquatch had come there. No one was running though, because they didn't believe in him. I ended up hiding in the elevator with a bunch of other people. We made the elevator stop between floors, but it never really worked. Then I was at church, no more scary people or animals...but the church was set up differently. And these children were performing a skit in the front. Everyone was talking though, as if nothing was happening, and I thought it was really annoying. So I left, and was walking in this inner city area. Then I woke up and realized that it was noon and I had actually missed church for about the fifth week in a row....not good....
    Well I should probably get back downstairs, before my mother decides to come up here and tell me how lazy I am as usual. Gotta love living at home....

    So many exciting things have happened since I last graced all of you with my presence. The most exciting of which, (well at least for me) is the fact that I've found a nanny job!!!! The fascinating part of this is.....I'M MOVING TO KANSAS!!!! I never thought people actually moved to Kansas I figured they were just born there and couldn't escape. (Kind of like BG!) So yes, your friend Tracy will be hanging out with Dorothy and Auntie Em down on the farm in Tornado Alley. Well actually I'm not living on a farm, more like a military base, in a large victorian house....it should be interesting! I'm terribly excited, I never thought I would get excited about moving from BG to BG's twin....hmmm.....
    I'm sitting here at work enjoying the conveniences of owning a laptop! I don't have to be bored during overnights anymore! I can check my e-mail, and write silly blogs like this one. Although I should probably be careful, knowing my luck with mentioning work on the blog, someone random will read it and tell my supervisor and then I'll get in trouble or something! It seems that I find enough trouble to get into with this job, then again, most people in this field do! There's these high up types that expect perfection even though they're sitting in their posh offices while we slave around in the homes.
    I should go to bed, I'm working the morning shift tomorrow, and there's rumors that licensing is showing up....joy of all joys!

    You are a flower (in a negative way)
    You're a Flower. You are very emotional and think
    that is good. But its not. Emotion alone is
    suicide...which you may have even contemplated.
    Stop being so vain. Suck it up and seek truth
    and you may find out that life is about more
    than "Bright Eyes" and your own
    pathetic, self.


    Allow me to label you within my understanding of reality

    Bubs
    You are Bubs. You are the disco dancing king.
    People like you because you sell them food.
    Actually you eat most of the food yourself,
    that's probably why you're fat. It doesn't
    matter though, cuz your voice is awesome!

    Ah it's been awhile hasn't it? Well let me update you! I'm currently living in my parent's house although it feels a little more like prison than living.....now Tracy Tracy Tracy....You need to be thankful that they were willing to take you in. You have a roof over your head...yes I know that...but my room is a public room. It's the computer room, exercise room as well as my bedroom. It's been nothing less than interesting.
    I continue to look for a nanny job. I almost had a job, but the family backed out right before my second in person interview. It was a tad traumatizing for me. So now I'm back to searching. I've applied for jobs in Tuscon, NYC, Seattle, LA, Columbus, Boston, San Francisco....everywhere, and I haven't heard a peep from anyone. So I'm a little discouraged, but I'm trying to keep cheerful about the whole thing. There's a family out there for me somewhere, and sooner or later I'll find them, or they'll find me! I feel like I should make a musical of this whole experience or something....okay maybe not....
    I've been babysitting a little here and there, working a little, sleeping a lot, trying to find a lab science to take online...why you ask? Well for fun of course! You know me, Miss Science maniac! Well more like Miss Maniac really..... I ended up failing my Geology class, which puts a bit of a damper on the whole graduation thing. So I've walked and gotten my empty diploma cover, but they're not going to give me my empty diploma until I take one last class. I think it's a bunch of crap, but they don't care what I think. So that's been a little frustrating.
    So yeah, life has been a little frustrating. I miss my friends, I want a nanny job, and I need to get out of my parent's house. But I'm still here, and happy for the most part. I'll make it somehow!

    My Immortal
    My Immortal.

    Your Lyrics



    I'm so tired of being here
    Suppressed by all my childish fears
    And if you have to leave
    I wish that you would just leave
    'Cause your presence still lingers here
    And it won't leave me alone

    These wounds won't seem to heal
    This pain is just too real
    There's just too much that time cannot erase

    When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
    When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
    I held your hand through all of these years
    But you still have
    All of me

    You used to captivate me
    By your resonating light
    Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
    Your face it haunts
    My once pleasant dreams
    Your voice it chased away
    All the sanity in me

    These wounds won't seem to heal
    This pain is just too real
    There's just too much that time cannot erase

    When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
    When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
    I held your hand through all of these years
    But you still have
    All of me

    I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
    But though you're still with me
    I've been alone all along

    When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
    When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
    I held your hand through all of these years
    But you still have
    All of me

    Diary of Josiah...the stir crazy hamster....

    If I have to stay in this wire box for much longer I swear I'll lose it! Every night I wake up to a world with white stripes, and that dumb girl chirping at me in that gibberish tongue that she thinks I understand. What IS she saying to me? Is she taunting me in my imprisonment? She fills my food bowl with that bird seed, and locks the door again...the sadist! I know that there has to be a way out of here. I know if I chew on the bars long enough, I will have to break through sometime right? Oh, screw it! I'm going back to bed.....

    Does anyone out there wanna pack up my apartment for me? Anyone? Anyone at all? The place looks like a warzone, and I am too exhausted to do anything about it. I feel like I'm 87 or something...I'm not sure what's wrong with me! I took my last exam today, and all I wanted to do when I got home was go back to bed, but I had to babysit, and it's not like that was stressful or anything. Whatever...
    So I'm graduating on Saturday, after six long, practically hellish years, I am escaping the Nazi regime known as Bowling Green State University. I am planning on burning every reminder of the school except for pictures and things having to do with my friends. Then I will dance around the fire, casting curses on every building on the campus. South Hall will finally collapse into worthless rubble, the administration building will suddenly be abandoned, and students will be free to take their money back that the bursar's office steals, the music building will burn down, the twiggy sculpture near the education building will suddenly come alive and eat the Ed. Building, East Hall, the BA Building and Olscamp, the union will turn into a giant heap of mash potatoes...in fact the only building left standing would be the little visitor center out by lot 6 and that will be used to imprison all the faculty that made my BGSU experience so terrible! Ah, I feel better now! I think I'll go to bed now!
