Just because I'm up...yikes...
I have had the wonderful privilege of living with my family for the past few weeks...well on and off in between trips to A-town. And while the free food has been great, and for the most part, the 'rents and I stay out of each other's hair, and I get to spend lots of time outside with my aging cat, all of this homeliness has another amusement. Yes, folks, I'm talking about my younger sister.
Now, for anyone who knows me and my sister, we look semi-alike until you see us both together, in person. So, picture resemblences are about where it stops....
My sister while watching Annie, "why is he doing that? who is that guy? what about that girl? why are they dancing together? etc...etc...etc...."
On boys: "Adam & I are just so in love....wait, is Joe built? I mean, is he like, ripped and stuff....I love Adam, he's the best!....I'm going to run off with your brother!" (Adam is her boyfriend, Joe is my boyfriend's younger brother).
On her relationship: "I've taken to smacking him in the face. I don't think he likes that very much."
On herself: "I'm like, a beast!"
And, finally, a conversation about sarcasm:
Setting- Living room...I'm sitting on the couch reading Cosmo. I get very involved in reading, and tend not to pay attention to anything around me.
Katie: Okay, I'll see you later.
Lauren (half-enthused): Bye.
Katie: What's wrong?
Lauren: Huhwhat?
Katie: You seem...sad.
Lauren: Uh, I'm fine. According to you, I *always* seem sad, but that's 'cause you always get me when I'm busy.
Katie: You're not very talkative, either!
Lauren (laughs): That's just because when I'm with you, I'm trying to refrain from being sarcastic because I know you won't understand it.
*pause*
Katie: Why are you so mean to me!?!?!?!?
Lauren: Katie, you've totally illustrated my point.

Yes, that's right, I live with Jessica Simpson version 2.0. :)

I suppose I should go to bed 'cause I have to leave tomorrow at 10am to go to Green Bay for a job interview. Blah! Wish me luck :)
