Haven't posted or been active in awhile. I did warn that would probably be the case. So here is an actual entry!
1. My recently divorced, 49 year old, fundamentalist Christian Aunt, who has 8 children (all of whom have names starting with the letter A) that up until she kicked her husband out she homeschooled because public school is too secular, who wouldn't let her kids play with power rangers back in the day because power rangers have magical powers which makes them witches which makes them devil worshipers.... is getting a boob job.
And yes. I mean implants.
This is the most mind boggling news I have ever received in my entire life. Out of everyone, LITERALLY everyone I know, she is the person I would have least expected to get a boob job.
She just finished a really REALLY intensive Masters program in Science/Nursing, and she is using her extra student loan money to pay for the surgery. She graduated on Friday. Sunday she went in for the surgery. She's starting her new job at one of the most prestigious Hospitals in the D.C. area on July 6th. Giving her just enough time to heal up. Apparently she managed to finagle a "professional discount" out of the surgeon, because she's a nurse. (And not just a nurse, but like a SUPER NURSE!). She was not only doing the Masters program, instead of normal nursing BS, but she was also in an honour society and graduated in like the top... five of her class. She had a job lined up 5 mos. before graduating. (Nursing shortage = people WANT WANT WANT the highly qualified nurses).
Anyway, if you met this women... you would agree she is the person least likely to get implants.
Apparently my ex-uncle was really good at making her feel like crap about herself and her body. She's been planning this for almost two years, though we all just found out. She started wearing padded bras to prepare us.
This is still so strange and mind boggling to me.
She is a wonderful woman though, and deserves to feel better about herself.
2. This happened awhile ago, but I forgot to write about it. Probably just because it creeped me out and I didn't want to think about it. It brought up sad memories.
While I was in Hilton Head back in March, my Cousin Ellen's boyfriend of a few years came over to her apartment to visit and died. Mid conversation. Literally. They were talking, then he was dead. She performed CPR for 45 minutes until the police showed up, to no avail. He was 27 years old, a non smoker. Drank rarely, didn't do drugs. Physically active.
Autopsy turned up absolutely nothing. Zero. My Aunt Nancy, Ellen's mom, who is a nurse practitioner (umm, I have 4 Aunts. They are all nurses.) says that the only thing she can think it could have been was a sudden arrhythmia.
Ellen graduated from college yesterday. She and her boyfriend were going to be getting an apartment together next month, and going to Grad School together at Ohio State.
What makes this creepier?
September 2006. My friend Griffen and his roommate are talking. His roommate goes to take a shower, and Griffen sits down watching TV. The roommate comes out 15-20 minutes later and Griffen is dead. He was 19. A non smoker. In good health. Did some recreational drugs, but you don't hear about people dying of pot. He had a girlfriend at the time. He was one of the nicest, funniest, happiest people I have ever met.
They did three autopsies. None could determine a cause of death.
Griffen and Ellen's boyfriend both went to Drexel in Philly. They lived within three blocks of one another.
3. My mom bought herself a Wii. Apparently the middle aged women at her school told her how much fun all of the little sports games were. So she went out and bought herself a Wii. I found out the day it arrived. She had pre-ordered it a month before.
The day I found out? In my creative writing class somehow the topic of Wiis comes up. Three or four people in my class said "My mom wants a Wii." I literally thought to myself "My mom may have told me to tell my father to get her an i-pod for mothers day, but at least she doesn't want a Wii!"
Then I got home from class and got a phone call from my mother stating "Tell Dad I don't want the i-pod after all, my Wii arrived today. I ordered it so long ago I had forgotten about it."
So for mothers day, I got my mom Tiger Woods golf for the Wii. What did you get your mom for mothers day?
My mom has a wii and I don't. This makes me sad. I want a wii.

That is really strange, and you would think that would be against her values somehow right? But if it is something that she TRULY wants - all the more power to her.
2. Um, that's horribly creepy, and it gave me goosebumps and stuff...
3. That's awesome! I want a Wii
