Sketch and Edit's Excellent Adventure is quickly approaching.
Which is awesome as I haven't seen her in months.
We're gonna jam out, drink, eat, take some pictures...I'll come back with quotes and stories of pure awesomeness. Even though we don't have any definite plans, we're better at just making it up as we go along.
As for today, it was awesome. I guess. Not like stellar awesome, but not awful, okay so it was more like mediocre. According to Ellie if you use the word "awesome" for everything it becomes mediocre. She's the one engaged to "Captain Awesome" on Chuck, he calls him that because everything he does is awesome, even flossing.
So I guess my day was mediocre.
I got all the way through the Summer Reading manual. It gives all these activity ideas. Our theme is darkness and night, but their ideas are completely morbid like tour a morgue, talk to a coroner, design your tombstone, write your epitaph... seriously? Creep factor.
Also switched out my display and cleaned the YA area. I had a books to movies display, now it's "The Name is the Game" where I went through and pulled a bunch of books with clever titles, "Jesus in your Backpack", "Death by Latte", "Then He Ate My Boy Entrancers" - i have no idea what that one's about but I'm intrigued.
I also ran into a bunch of fun titles about getting over your ex, I'm saving those for Valentine's Day, that should be fun.
So that was work, after that I watched Castle - oh my god hysterical when they find the hidden camera I died at their conversation - then finished my homework, woohoo! We had to evaluate 3 online catalogs and make a chart.
I actually ran in to the easiest catalog I've ever seen which was new and exciting, but also - and this is a shocker - a catalog from hell.
THE catalog from hell.
It's pure evil.
And it's not ours.
OH MY GOD, you can't place holds through it, you can't tell what format an item is unless you go into the physical record, the search results aren't sorted, you can't limit your findings, there's not advanced search option, I was like seriously?
I mean, I know our catalog is confusing, but at least it gives you results, with this one you're screwed if you don't know the exact title and author.
Anyway, rant over.
I still have to add some stuff to a group discussion thing but the physical assignment is done and posted, woohoo!
"Fortunate Son" Bruce Springsteen & John Fogerty
live 25th anniversary rock and roll hall of fame concert
amusing to see these old guys jamming like they're teens, but they still rock.
great version, and even though the original is the best, my favorite is still: Jeffster on Chuck They're in full protest mode at the Buy More.
Dude, Hetty just kicked Callen's butt on the climbing wall. She's old but she's fast.
Yeah, I'm back to NCIS:LA cause I went all the way through SVU, don't feel like watching American Pickers which means it's either this or Kitchen Confidential and that was one requires me to stay awake as I haven't seen it.
Out!

Lutherans in the Outfield
Emotional Rollercoaster.
Battle of the Lutherans Take Two. We dominated.
AND, apparently it's possible to be both cursed and play good defense as I caught three pop flies, but got out every freaking time I went up to bat.
But we won! For the first time...ever! We've officially beaten every team and it's awesome!
Or it was awesome, until we played with E-Free and my defensive skills completely disappeared. I was, however, able to bat, it was backward. Well, normal actually. Usually that's how it is.
But they were super short on people tonight so my brother and sister-in-law stayed to play with them as well. And, we were all in the outfield with Nic, so it was literally Lutherans in the Outfield. Awesomeness. We're mercenaries, get used to it.
Oh well, it was a fun game. And they brought us hot apple cider. We jammed after the game, shook everybodies hand, talked about icecream, I got asked out, talked some more about icecream, joked around with the Pastor, then Nic and me went for ice cream...
Yeah, you read that right.
Although I said no. As I don't go out there all that often anymore.
Plus it's doomed from the start as he is not Catholic.
Neither am I, but that's not the point.
I'm destined to marry a Catholic. It's KFC. Kimbrough Family Clan tradition.
All my siblings have married Catholics. And, at one point, have had two kids, two pets, big houses, the whole white picket fence and all that.
Oldest Sister married the first Catholic. They have two kids, two cats and a dog. I'm not counting the dragon or the fish as they belong to the children. Yes, a dragon, it's a long story.
Big Brother married a Catholic, has three kids, and a dog.
Second Sister married a Catholic, has 2.5 kids, and two dogs.
Therefore, I'm destined to marry a Catholic, have at least 2.5 kids, and get another animal somewhere along the way. Although I don't know how Carter would take that. He is larger than most small dogs. Even though he's a cat. And currently sitting on my lap. He sleeps on me as well.
But who knows? Maybe I'll break the tradition. I am the odd one out in our family. Came 11 years after the other three. Went to private schools all my life while they went public. Getting my Master's - first public school experience ever along with working in a very public library.
Maybe I'll start my own traditions. Nah. At this point it's a nice excuse for when my mother asks me about guys. "Nope, wouldn't work. He's not Catholic." I'm sticking with it. Until I find one that's Catholic, then I'm screwed.
Quotes of the night:
"Are they glittens? or Mloves?"
sister-in-law has gloves inside mittens. she says they are mloves. i said they'd be glittens if it was church-league-cheerleading.
"Yeah, she's not an athlete. I see pom-poms in her future."
i died laughing at this point. e-free member talking about her children. cheerleading is not a sport. period.
All in all it was a good day. Shelved for three hours, watched some NCIS on Mom's DVR - although I was tempted to watch Swamp People. Dad even called me this week to tell me he had taped some new ones.
Aannnd got my wrapping paper for this year. Last year it was black, year before that it was Charlie Brown, year before that it was red and silver candycane stripes. This year I'm back with the silver but it's with blue. Stoked. I'm big on Christmas. And when they start putting the candycanes out on the shelves it pretty much takes over my life. But I love it. Because I love my family. And our crazy traditions. KFC included.
"Centerfield" John Fogerty
Softball gloves go back in the trunk in anticipation of next year, next to the camp stuff. According to Oldest Sister it's weird that I'm still not unpacked from a camp that took place in July. It's not like a lot, it's just some blankets and a pillow and then all the boardgames and a tent. And they stayed in my old car, why not Jarvis?
Alright, should probably crash and burn. Long day tomorrow.
OUT!
