Yesterday was my son’s 4th birthday and even though he didn’t have a real party I know he enjoyed himself. Wow, after buying all this birthday stuff and christmas gifts I am officially broke! We all had our chance to try and make our way through his spider man tunnel yesterday. The funny part was when my dad’s friend bet him $50 if he could make it through the tunnel. My dad got stuck half way through. Oh, and then my son got a hold of my camera and my dad’s camera and took about a total of 200 pictures. It was interesting to see things from a 4 year old’s perspective.
So, to be honest I think I am addicted to A&E’s the First 48. The first 48 comes on almost every day. Every time there is a marathon I have to watch the whole thing. The show is interesting really. Before I started watching the show I never realized how many people are murdered. The first 48 is about finding suspects to homicides within the first 48 hours. So many teenagers are charged with first-degree and capital murder all the time on the show. The thing that I really love about the show is that it’s REAL. No fake CSI Miami or anything like that. They show the dead bodies too! Maybe I’m weird but hey I grew up living with a paramedic who exposed me to all the crazy things that happen in “the streets”.
So it’s now 1:24am and I happen to think that I have a slight case of insomnia. Every night it seems like I stay up until about 3:00am even though there are days when I have to get up at 6:00am. It amazes me that I am able to survive on 3 hours of sleep, go to school, and still deal with a demanding three year old. My days are so long because I’m “lucky” enough to have to deal with public transportation. I really need a car and a vacation. I’m ready to pull my hair out!
So Friday I was feeling quite spontaneous. So what did I do? Of course, I went and got my third tattoo. Falling cherry blossoms and petals.The tattoo starts on my collar bone goes to my back. I took my brother with me to get it and the whole time he kept saying “Briana, you’re freaking crazy.” I know I’m crazy but once you get one tattoo it becomes addictive.
so i’ve been at home all day in my pajamas writing on index cards….studying for my psych exam tomorrow….i think i’ve gone through more than half the pack of index cards and i’m still not done….i’m ready to sit in a corner and pull patches of my hair out….my hand hurts from writing all day and i have a horrible sinus headache….please, someone help me! lol
Okay, so today was my great grandmother’s 95th birthday party and man was it - hmm…how do i say this - very very interesting. Everytime there is a family get together it is always interesting. So, the whole family is sitting around eating and talking and of course my uncle (who is in his late 70’s) brings up his “girlfriend”. Now the funny thing is is that my uncle thinks he’s still a pimp and everyone in the world wants him. Everytime he brings up his girlfriend we all just have to laugh and today the only thing he kept saying was that she was nice and skinny. How can a man who is in his late 70’s have a girlfriend and still has enough energy to take his butt outside and smoke a cigarette? Wow, I have a very eccentric family but I love them to death.
