The cold is slowly but surely leaving me - Thank you Jesus! This weekend is packed full - Saturday I have a class reunion to attend - my best friend Lisa is organizing the event for her class but I am crashing it because I am friends with all those people too. I'm sure I will hear "didn't you graduate a year after us?" and I'm going to say..."No! Where did you ever get that idea?"
Also on Saturday morning I'm getting my long over due highlights. Laura, my hair girl, is awesome. I always look forward to what she is going to try to talk me in to. I wish she was a tad bit cheaper though - seems like everytime I hit the salon it hits me with a $100 credit card charge not to mention I am in dire need of the $15 a bottle hairspray. Schewen, I think we have to blame Jill for our hair frenzies. She is our dear friend that is a Hair Artist - she doesn't just cut your hair - she gives you a look all your own. Unfortunately, Jill's cuts went up to $50 (she works up north in the rich section of town) and I had to find someone local to so my daughter could get the proper food groups on a daily basis. Fish sticks and mozzarella cheese are good for most days, but I gotta get eggs and fruit in there too.
Since Wendy is the only person reading this, I might as well make her laugh. Do you remember (well, I know you do, but anyhoo...) that time we took my convertible (conveerrrtttalbe) over to Marengo at midnight, on 71 South and almost got ran off the road by a Semi truck??? We were praising Jesus the whole rest of the way there! Then we decided to stalk a fellow - I can't even remember his name - but he had a crush on you - and we drove by his house with my binoculars in tow:
Nat: I can't see anything.
Wen: Stop slowing down, they're going to see you.
Nat: I can't drive fast and see.
Wen: Hurry up, they'll call the Sheriff.
Nat: Wait, I can see...something...
Wen: Hurry up, they'll call the Sheriff...
Nat: No they won't...wait...
Wen: Hurry up, they'll call the Sheriff...
Then a car came and we got spooked, drove up the road by these silo thingys and found a couple parking.
Oh my.
So we drove in town by the pool hall and guess who's truck we found...the crush guy. We weren't brave enough to go in were we Girlfriend?
Since it's friday, I have the lovely BBC bulletin to do so I should quit rambling and do my job.
xoxo's to my Schwen.

and for some ODD reason, i was thinking yesterday when i read your 1st post..."i wonder how long it will be til she writes about the midnight drive to marengo." his name was bill, by the way. and that whole thing sort of creeps me out nowadays. remember how he showed up at family math night and shelly laslo was like, "he totally has a crush on you!" weird.
have you been watching the gymnastics? remember me eating 3 boxes of wheaties so i could get that mary lou retton poster for free? last night i was thinking of rudy galindo. lol
you are going to find this whole blog thing so therapeutic, my friend. and who isn't in need of a little bit of therapy every once in a while???
Your comments are wayyyy better than my blogs! LOL. Rudy! Rudy! Rudy! (Don't forget your hula hoop!)
Yes, it was Bill! And you had his kid, Ryan, in your class. Oh Miss Kline had quite the crew that year! Good old Amanda Bednar and her leaning tower of pasta!!
I so love you and I miss you tremendously.
Thanks for humoring me by commenting my blog - since no one else could even begin to understand our memories!
Love you!
