Hi all- I was just in a fun mood, and wanted to post about my sister- also known as "D". My sister and I used to have nothing in common. She is skinnier than a wire hanger, I'm best known as having a little extra junk in my trunk (not too much, but compared to her? im a fatty). She is a sportsaholic- playing soccer now for Div I school Western Illinois University (go Westerwinds!) and I am more comfortable sitting my (slightly larger) ass on the couch. For a long time I was quite jealous of her (she was born when I was 7, an only child at the time) and still am of some things. Mainly because she is only 18 and has her whole life ahead of her- and those damn legs. Anyway, we call her D because for some reason in our family the name Daniel/Danielle is incredibly popular, and there is a "big" Danny(Daniel S.) , my sister Danie(Danielle G.) , and a "little" Dan (Daniel M.). The D mainly goes for which of the Dan's are around at what time.
Anyway, I was talking to her last night, (all the way in Illinois at college, by herself, playing soccer...) and just thought of how proud I am of her, and how much fun the next 4 years are going to be for her. Everytime I talk to her, there are a million people laughing in the background, so I know she has made some friends and probably is having fun... So I am super happy for her. Anyway- just for big sis revenge though- I hope some of her friends are as nasty as her- because her feet stink like a rotting garbage can, and when she farts, she can take the paint off of cars. : ) OK- thats it... really happy- but also having to make fun~ Talk to everyone later.

Nobody's Gonna Break My Style
It has been a couple of days (weeks really, but I am super boring) so here is an update!
I have been super emotional this week- for those of you who know me, you know what a big shock this is. I'm serious- I thought I had lost all "girl crying" genes in some freak accident at birth. It takes a lot to get me to be emotional- but lord, when it comes- it's like a flood. Anyhow- so- life has just completely caught me by surprise, and I haven't gone a day yet this week without crying for some reason or another.
Anyhow- so I went to look at a rental home today in Bridlebrook Farms, which is on the outskirts of Montgomery. And by outskirts, I mean way the hell out there. So- in consideration of the fact I had no IDEA just how far out, I alloted myself 15 minutes to get there to meet the realtor. I was late. Just by like 10 minutes, but still late. Instead of a cajoling "Did you get lost?" by said realtor- we'll call her the BBWSA for Black Bit*& With Serious Attitude, I get a "we'll have to see if the tenant is still willing to show the house since you are late". Then she goes up to the door and bangs on it. After letting the tenant know- and I can hear how she tells her that I'm late and its my fault- the tenant agrees to have the house shown at that time. Now- BBWSA has still not given me her name, has not shaken my hand, has not in one ounce satisfied me with any sort of customer service still at this time. We go into the house, she hurries me along, names only the bedrooms, doesnt offer any sort of information on said house without (by the way- these tenants let their disgusting cat piss all over everything, enough to ruin the carpet which was torn up and BBWSA still had no explanation or timeline to replace when finally asked about it) and in summation- was horribly smelly and not where I would for one second want to live. Then, as we are walking out of the house, the BBWSA asked me about the second house I had scheduled to look at today. I straight up looked at her and told her that I wasn't going anywhere else with her showing me anything. Then, I called Aronov Home Rentals, and soundly blessed them out for her incomprehensible rudeness. I hope she gets fired. There is absolutely no reason to act the way she did, and it reflects poorly on Aronov the fact that she is out showing homes. Hello- you stupid bitch- you are going to make a commission on the rental of this home- you need to be nice to the sweet lady that comes to look at it... Dumbass.
In other news- War MFing Eagle! And- yes- Notre Dame? I am very disappointed. At least Auburn came through, but some horrible play calling in the last AU possession! When running Kenny Irons doesn't work for the first half, and then barely works in the second- the LAST thing to do on the most important possession of the game is to RUN KENNY UP THE FREAKING MIDDLE THREE TIMES. Should have passed to get the first down, and then knelt for the last minute and a half. You don't give LSU the ball with 2:15 left on the clock and think for one second they aren't going to score. Okay- last I will say about football. Okay I lied- Brady Quinn- my gorgeous- what have you done?
Alabama weather- I keep reading blogs about folks in other areas of the country, that are starting to feel the full effects of fall. My mom was telling me the other day that it was cold and they cut the heat on. And then I go outside and it is still 100 degrees. It's true what they say, Alabama has four seasons- Almost Summer, Summer, Still Summer, and Winter. Bummer- I have some really cute fall clothes that I want to wear, but would be sweltering.
Congratulations to the Montgomery Biscuits- DBF (dear boyfriend for those not "in the know") and I went to see the championship winning game last Friday. Was really cool except for the strange woman who HAD to stand up every hit, although we were directly behind home plate and could see everything sitting down. DBF and I will be in DT's until next season.
TV- so House is better with every episode- I truly am addicted. TiVo is on standby on Tuesday nights, but I'm usually right there in front so it is wasted. Also- new shows I like- Til Death, Standoff(right after House and with that gorgeous Ron Livingston), Vanished, Justice. Still refuse to watch Grey's Anatomy- sounds too much like a daytime soap, and I missed Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip last night... Anyone see it? Was it good?
Is anyone else just amazed with the way iPod or some variation has seeped into the vernacular? My boss- god love him- is mid-60's and made a comment about a podcast today. He doesn't even know how to look up a contact in Outlook, but wanted to see if he could watch a podcast on my computer. Apple certainly has cornered the market, but I'm sure everyone will be sick of the whole "pod-revolution" at some point. Right?
Okay- I have come up with enough things today, I think... Maybe I will post again in a couple of days... BTW- Glad to see that Sherri is still alive- Whoopee! And my "blog to read" for this week is DadGoneMad
