today has been surprisingly eventful. allow me to go on, won't you?

i bought some pants at the thriftstore yesterday... and i wore them around today. this was clearly a case of "well, they looked good in the store." i don't know what happened... but thinking about it, there are some things that died with the 80's that should stay dead... at least to me. straitlegged pants may be on that list. i guess my butt was never all THAT big, but when my legs look so much smaller, my butt looks way bigger. yes, today i was a member of the BB club. i don't know if i come off this way in my diary, but sometimes i'm vain. very very vain... and a person who often doesn't look good shouldn't afford to worry about appearences. so all day i made a hilarious spectacle of myself looking in mirrors to see if i really looked that bad. weirdness. i don't know why i put that in there... but i don't know if i'll ever wear these pants again. shame pants.

after work i had an orthodontist appointment. guys. there's a light at the end of the tunnel. i might actually get these things off of me before i die! ! ! that's right... my braces may almost be done. in 6 to 8 weeks, i may have the bottom wire removed that's right. there was talk of rubber bands to fix the last few gaps where teeth came in. there was even talk of straitening my jaw! you can't really tell but my bottom jaw doesn't line up with my top one. it's not an overbite or and underbite... it's like a sideways underbite. sidebite. so yes... there is a light at the end of the orthodonture tunnel. see me run to it.

after that mom, the brothers and i sort of meandered out to town for a while. we went to the mall and found a book for my dad... got bourbon chicken... good times. then we went to hottopic and i was sad that kevin wasn't working, but glad too because i wasn't feeling confidant in my weird pants. the boots i've been visiting are gone:( sold out. buckles and zippers flash poof gone.

then, we went to petsmart to get some stuff for my brother's hamster, and i came home with a new friend.

yes, today i am a mommy. i got a beta fish. he's bluish red and beautiful and i love him. but he doesn't have a name. i got him a little tank with some rocks and a little plant. i bet i'll be a good fish mom. i could easily draw, color and lable his fins and their functions all thanks to mrs. lowe... aw. my little baby. he was the best fish. i swear. i bet i can teach him to do tricks.

i have to clean my room. i got tomorrow off from work, but my ride to warped tour may be crapping out on me. good thing i didn't buy tickets yet.

barb says i can call her if i can work tomorrow. i have to finish my english homework. editorials are boring. politics suck. bleah. anyone know where there are some actual interesting editorials for me to write an essay on for english>?

hey, what should i name my precious baby fish? sign the guestbook if you have a good one. or... just sign it anyway. smell you later.
