DISCLAIMER:
Brittany wrote the following at four in the morning. She apologizes for any and all of the awkward and/or insensible things you are about to read.
This post is long and weird. Feel free to skip it.
In fact, I suggest you skip it. Thank you in advance. Come back later, when she has written something that makes sense.


I have to go to the dentist at 9:30.
I should probably go to sleep, seeing as that's in six hours.
......................
Today, I beat the Order of the Phoenix game on the wii. YAY ME!
Now I can just run around Hogwarts and find all the secret things.
My father is currently playing gobstones. He's been at it for an hour or so. It's amusing.
......................
Flora came over while father was at work today.
It was slightly awkward for a while.
She gave me a necklace. I like it.
We painted pine cones together.
I still can't understand half the things she says. I feel bad, asking her to repeat herself, so most of the time I just nod and smile.
She told me about how she moved to America when she was young, and she had to learn English all by herself. I admire that.
She needs to move in, already! Ughhghgh.

Signed up to get a holiday CHEER card from Maureen Johnson.

I am afraid of the dentist.
Seriously.
Every time I think about it, my heart starts beating really fast. :\
Dentists are scary people. I don't want some guy poking around in my mouth. They always say, "oh, this won't hurt." but they lie EVERY time. It ALWAYS hurts.
It probably doesn't help that I wrote a story about an evil dentist once.
Although I know this guy.
My mom started working with him right after he got out of dental school.
....................
Sydney and I were on the phone a while back, both on facebook.

Sydney: Who is that Adam J.M. Eagleton guy?
Me: You know, my pen pal.
Sydney: I want to add him. Would he think I was creepy?
Me: Um, I doubt it. Ethan added him. He won't think you're creepy.
Sydney: I just want to see if he's attractive.
Me: That's pretty much his only picture.
Her: Oh. Well. Never mind, then.
oh, how I laughed.

That's how our conversations go.
"I met a boy today."
"Is he attractive?"
At which point we get on myspace/facebook and look them up.
I just love hanging out with her and gossiping.
It's so nice to be able to talk about trivial things, like who so and so is dating, and oh my goodness did you hear Jimmy broke up with Ashley?
....................
Father gave me my Christmas present early.
It's a new ipod. :]
I named him Charlie the Nerdfighting Ipod.
Although I may change the Charlie bit, as I just realized that's what Allie named her new laptop.
Any suggestions?
.....................

Father keeps saying "just one more game, then I'm going to bed!" but he's said it about seven times already.
.......................

The top five words I use on twitter are: going, want, oh, love, and time.
Interesting.

Wyatt is following me on twitter.
Not sure how I feel about that.
I usually try to avoid people I know IRL (besides Amanda, she's alright, as I don't see her ever) on twitter, because I sometimes say awkward things.
Twitter is like the place I can say things I'm thinking, y'know?

.........................
Have been thinking about the vegetarianism thing for the past few days.
I could do it, no problem.
The thing is, I don't think I'd be very healthy.
My mother and stepfather are big meat eaters. We raise our own cattle to butcher. It is extremely difficult to find food in my house that doesn't have some sort of meat in it.
Okay, whatever. Their eating habits shouldn't affect mine.
But, my mother would be completely unwilling to buy me any sort of food that is different from what they are eating.
So I'd be eating grilled cheese and cereal forever.
Not so healthy.
I don't know.
........................
It is four in the morning.
I have to be up in four hours.
I'm going to sleep.
Sorry for the long and disjointed post.
...............
EDIT:
Also, I got a C in reading. *happy dances*
Normally, I wouldn't be so proud of a C, but I honestly thought I was going to fail that class.
I hated it.
It wasn't anything like I expected it to be, and it was graded way too heavily on attendance, and I missed quite a bit.
It's a good thing I kicked ass on the midterm and did all that extra credit.
:]
SLEEEEEEEEP.
.................
Fuck it. I lied. It's 4:16, and I'm still awake. Father is still playing gobstones.

So Greg keeps calling me and asking if I'm going to church and/or youth group.

I haven't been to youth group in almost TWO YEARS.
I went to church a few months back, and only because Sydney had to, and I am such. A. Good. Friend. (Mean Girls quote, anyone?)
I really don't like church anymore.
That's cool if other people want to go, but I feel extremely hypocritical when I'm singing those songs that are like "God, I do everything for you!" because, well, I don't.
I'm not exactly sure what I believe right now, but I can't sing those songs when I don't mean it. It's disrespectful to the church.
I also can't listen to my pastor tell me not to watch TV shows with bad things in them.
I'm sorry, Les, but I watch Desperate Housewives and Grey's Anatomy. One of my favorite movies is about suicide.
I also curse like a sailor. Fuck. Ben Folds' Bitches Ain't Shit is one of my favorite songs. They wouldn't like that.
I was talking to Cassie, telling her about a book I was reading, and she said, "The only book I read is The Bible."
SERIOUSLY? I would shoot myself.
It's really creepy when the old ladies start speaking in tongues. ugh.
I keep lying to Greg, telling him I'm busy.
I know if I told him the truth, he'd have the whole church out in front of my house with candles or some weird shit like that.

I definitely wouldn't consider Sydney creepy. And I really should get more photos of myself, but I'm never bloody happy with them. Oh well.

Well done for your C grade, Brittany. Again, I think that's extraordinary. :]

Also, if you want an interesting name for your iPod (or for anything, really), I find that this website is very useful. It randomly generates a name based on your preferences.
