Mi hermano

Well, I met my new brother this week. I now have 5 brothers. My newest one- Dani (pronounce dah-KNEE...[with emphasis on the knee]). He is AWESOME!!! His little broken english is the cutest thing. he has had such an overwhelming week...he flew on a plane for the very first time, he saw snow for the very first time, everybody around him is speaking english, he doesnt know when he will be back in Peru again....I for one would be a basketcase. Heck, I was a basketcase just moving across the country...he moved to a NEW country. He is doing so great though and I am surprising myself at how much spanish I can understand.

On a different note....I want a baby NOW!!! I'm so excited ...Friday I get to go shopping with my friend Ana and her baby Esseny to find her something to wear. here is nothing I love more than babies r' us.....that store is fabulous!!

Alrighty...

Looking forward..

Well, this is going to be a crazy week! Mattie finally starts his EMT school, so he will be gone T, W, and Thursday nights from 6-10. What's great here is I work until about 5:30 soo...I wont be seeing him at least 3 days a week. (I really don't think thats great, it was sarcasm in case you missed it...). And dont ask why I abbreviated T, and W, and not Thursday. Thats just the way I wanted it...

Also on Tuesday my favorite Mary in the whole wide world gets into Tulsa from Peru!!!! I havent seen Mary since February and she is my bestest friend here so yay!!! We are all glad to have her and her husband back.

I think I've gained about 10 pounds since we've been housebound from ice...I had sent Mattie to the store to get bread, soy milk...he comes back with oreos and a humongous cookie cake. Thats my husband..he cant ingore the sugar side of life...

Umm....school is going good. Remember my nutty nutrition professor that I mentioned last post? Well, i had my new one yesterday- and he wore spandex pants to class with a t-shirt. I was worried the whole class his t-shirt would ride up and I would see a sight I do not want to see. You know what I mean. I guess it's just int he rule book for nutritionists to be sort of weird...maybe I would fit right in...

On another note, I am desperately wanting to be in NC when Olivia appears in this world. But, situations (money, school, 1, 125 miles) say differently so I guess I am stuck here until possibly next Christmas. Unless a free plane ticket and money to cover a week of work fall from the sky.

No, that was not a plea for you to send me money.........i was just talking.

Well friends, I have another blog for pics taht I havent used in FOREVER but I am putting some on of mattie and me in the ice storm if you wanna take a gander. Here is the link: http://www.mypassionpics.blogspot.com

Off to do homework!

Fact or fiction?

Picture this..

It's about 7:30 pm, on an unseasonably warm January night...I am in my first night of nutrition class. My professor is rambling on and on about his theories of food dangers that the government is covering up. One such theory is this.....we've all heard the thing about reusing bottled water bottles can cause cancer, right? Well, my professor goes further into this theory to tell us that consuming mass amounts of bottled water and pop (thats coke or soda for you non-Okies) during your third trimester will dramatically increase your chances *like almost 100 percent* of your child being born gay!!!

Yes, you read that right.

He then went on to say that that was a study...and he belevies that is not true, but homosexuality is in your dna. You can't help it.

_____________ insert 10 minute break

While the prof is out of the room, I ask my fellow students.."Did he just say that drinking bottled water will make my child be born gay" and they all said yes. It killed me! Nobody even doubted him! I am sure I made a face because this woman asked "Why, do you not agree?" and I said "Of course I dont agree, I believe homosexuality is a choice! You arent born that way!" and she replies with a "Well we'll just have to ask God some day" and I said "I'm pretty sure God would not approve of this theory...but I'm no professional on the matter". I didn't want to get in a huge debate becaus thats not what the class is about but......come on people!!! The Bible clearly states that homosexuality is a sin, am I right?

Needless to say I have switched profs and classes..

2007

Well, it's a new year now...in case you hadn't noticed yet. This year I will hopefully end up with my associates degree in my hand...and maybe a baby in my belly. I will hopefully have a fireman husband or at least an EMT....I will move to a new apartment..I will keep exercising. I will mature more.
