Take a Chill Pill, World

It's like when take a break from blogging, you all don't know what to do with your online time. My complaint department has been overwhelmed with angry readers, wanting more, MORE, MORE!

"More blog entries!" you cry, "Please write more! We live and breathe your blog entries and we are all dying off without our daily supply!"

"Relax, you freaks," I reply calmly. "I was just watching SYTYCD and cleaning my house. I'm back now."

In other news, Ricky the cat misses Rachel Handysnacks and is super annoying about it. He stares at me all the time. ALL THE TIME.

Rachel, come back from Philadelphia. Philly is silly.

Yes......... I think I even did this one when I was in like 8th grade.....

DO YOU SNORE?: No. Okay, maybe sometimes. Only when I am sick.


LOVER OR A FIGHTER?: Christina Aguilera's FIGHTER, obviously.


WHAT'S YOUR WORST FEAR?: Needles. Losing Snowy. Having a never-ending stomach ache.


AS A KID, WERE YOU A LEGO BUILDER?: Only at my Grandma Jobe's house because she had 50 million legoes and it was impossible not to play with them.


WHAT DO YOU THINK OF "REALITY TV"?: It is awesome if it is in the form of The Biggest Loser, SYTYCD, or SuperNanny. I also think that it is awesome if it is my mom and dad on Trading Spaces. I think it is very, very dumb if it is in the form of "Tila Tequila's Chance at Love" or whatever it's called.


DO YOU CHEW ON YOUR STRAWS?: No.


WERE YOU A CUTE BABY?: Of course. I need to find a picture so you can all ogle over it.


HOW IS THE SINGLE LIFE FOR YOU?: Why is this survey assuming I am single? It was not listed under "Surveys forLoser Singles." I could have a boyfriend. That being said, my single life is PHENOMENAL. Obviously.


DO YOU SING IN THE SHOWER?: I do not shower silently ever.


HAVE YOU EVER BUNGEE JUMPED?: One time I did this thing in Las Vegas where I was all strapped into this harness thing and they raised me and my brother and Tyler Zaichkin very, very high in the air and dropped us and we screamed. That is similar to bungee jumping.


ANY SECRET TALENTS?: If I told you what they were, they wouldn't be secret.


WHAT'S YOUR IDEAL VACATION SPOT?: Disneyland. Or DisneyWorld.


HAVE YOU EATEN SUSHI?: Yes. Kelly made me eat it before. I didn't love it, but I could eat it again.


CAN YOU SING THE ALPHABET BACKWARDS?: Yes. When I forgot my clarinet everyday for a whole week in junior high, I was so bored during Band Class that I taught myself to say the alphabet backwards.

WHAT ARE YOU ALLERGIC TO?: Amoxicillan.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU SAID, "I LOVE YOU": 2 hours ago when Kyle Facebook chatted me something mean. That is how I respond when he says inappropriate things.

IS SANTA CLAUS REAL?: Absolutely. If I stopped believing in Santa, I wouldn't get a Santa gift every year.


ARE YOU AFRAID OF THE DARK?: Yes.


WHAT ARE YOU ADDICTED TO?: Buying books. Cool Ranch Doritos. SYTYCD. Farmville.


CRUNCHY OR CREAMY PEANUT BUTTER?: Crunchy.


HAVE YOU EVER RIDDEN IN AN AMBULANCE?: No. I always almost die and no one calls the ambulance.


HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU BRUSHED YOUR TEETH TODAY?: Once.


WHEN'S THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED?: Last week when I was driving home from Puyallup, after driving home from Montana. Do you even know why I cried? Because I am a dork. I was crying because I had so much fun with my family and I was overwhelmed by how much I love them and how lucky I am to have such a wonderful family.


DO YOU LIKE YOUR LIFE?: Yes. Very much.


DO YOU PLAY ANY INSTRUMENTS?: Yes, half way on the following instruments: Piano, violin, clarinet, spoons. I own a guitar but Ron refuses to teach me.


IS A DOG A MAN'S BEST FRIEND?: No. Obese, tail-less cats are a man's best friend.


WHAT WAS THE LAST THING YOU ATE?: Ravioli with pesto and cherry tomatos.


And there you have it, friends. A survey of Nicole, straight out of the years when surveys were cool.

Today I was Interviewed

I like being interviewed. I just like when people ask me questions. Sometimes when I'm grumpy I have Carolyn ask me questions.

Maybe you think that's weird. So what? YOU'RE WEIRD. I'm just more open about my weirdness.

I was interviewed for Rebound for a promo video. I said some awesome stuff. I bet people will write $100,000 checks after they hear me talk about FC.

Oh, you know what I always secretly liked? Those stupid surveys that people sent around in high school that asked like 200 questions. Everyone hated them but I liked it when I got it.

I'll see if I can find one and then I'll post it for all of you to scour over.

The Real Footage of the Oprah Dance Party



I wish I was the girl in the front that was dancing by herself at the beginning. THIS IS THE MOST AWESOME.

Saturday, September 12, 2009

I have a new best friend. Her name is Eloise Miller.


Here we are.



And there she is - 2 hours old. She kept sticking her tongue out at me. It was a funny joke between the two of us.


I want a dog

And Then Rachel and I Got Up And Danced

I was flipping through the channels and I stumbled upon THIS. (Note: This is just a personal video from some person, not the actual footage from the television.) (Also note: You can't understand how surprised Rachel and I were.) (Third note: the real footage is SO AWESOME.)


It's time

I am starting to accept that it's autumn. Mostly this is because there is the pumpkin spice latte.

Also, only 4 months until Christmas! I LOVE CHRISTMAS!

First Day of School

Today was the first day of school for Bellingham, and therefore the first day of school for Flying Colors Afterschool Care.

It was long.

But we survived.

I am too tired to give details so I will give a picture of some dogs in costumes:

A Terrible Occurance

Something terrible occurred in our home. I could not find a picture online that accurately represented what happened to me and Rachel this evening. So I had to draw one myself. Here it is:


A spider monster crawled into our living room.
