"you can have an extra dum-dum just for having cool parents"

my youth group helped with this kids club for daycare kids the past four days.


on Tuesday, a kid came in with arrows on his forehead and hands. they were those little washable tattoos.


It was extremely exciting for all of us leaders to see an Avatar fan that young (the real avatar, not the one with those freaky blue cat people....) so our leader decided to ask him about it.


Michael: hey, the Last Airbender! what's up, kid?


kid: what?


Michael: you've got those arrows, like the avatar guy.


kid: I'm not "Av-uh-tar"....my name's Drew.


Michael: I meant you have those arrows like the character Aang from the TV show had on his head and hands....


kid/Drew: *blank stare*


Michael: you know...it was on Nickelodeon...


Drew: my parents made me get these....I just thought they looked cool.


Michael: oh.




needless to say, we were all very disappointed at this kid's obvious lack-of-culture, but we had to give his parents props for being possibly the coolest adults ever.


let's compare them, shall we?

I didn't actually think to get a pic of Drew (plus, that would be kinda awkward) so this random kid from the internet will have to do. I drew what the kid's tattoo looked like on him......

see what I mean? he must have some hardcore parents....

Sunday, July 18

wait, who are you again?!

well....this is awkward....

its been about three months since I've posted anything here.

if you noticed and are really upset and would like to kick me in the stomach and/or claw my face off, good luck with that. I would also suggest that you visit a therapist to discuss why exactly you have an unhealthy obsession with my blog.

if you didn't notice, disregard that paragraph and we can just pretend none of this ever happened...

I never meant to take a break like that without any warning whatsoever....I was going to take a week or two off, and then come right back, I swear.

it turned into me having almost the entire summer off, and it was fine for the first month.

It was all downhill from there.

I would be watching a random show on TV (aka Phineas and Ferb...don't ask) and my
guilt over not posting anything would take over....


                                             Phineas: Hey Ferb, what should we do today?
                  Ferb: Well, we're definitely not gonna write a blog post, if that's what you mean.


I would be taking a nap, and suddenly wake up, freaking out that I hadn't written anything that day.


I would spend hours brainstorming, trying to think of something, anything to post...coming up empty every time (you don't really think about it when you're sitting at school, waiting for june so you can sleep in and stay up late....but summer gets boring real fast, and then all you're left with
is 24 hours a day of staring vacantly at a wall...)

it was so sad.

I finally gave in, and here I am.....with absolutely no clue what else to say....


but don't worry, I'll be back.


maybe.

 UPDATE:
 and you know, this re-starting of my blog deserves a blog make-over....again :)

oh, and I can finally change the quote of the month....its been stuck on May since, well, May
