I was tagged!!

Darn you Leaner for "forcing" me to blog!!
Middle name GENEVIEVE

G-Ghost. I have only told a few people this story. Growing up and even now I believe there is a very negative "spirit" that dwells in my bedroom at my parent's house. I will no longer sleep in there whenever we stay there. I believe it has something to do with the old dresser and especially the mirror attached to it. Get rid of that and I probably would have no problem with the room. (I HATE mirrors in the dark!) A couple years ago I tried sleeping in there and felt a horrible presence that was pushing on my chest as hard as any human could. I said "GO AWAY!" in a very direct, not yelling tone, (the kind you use when you are getting your point across with your kids) and it went away immediate. Since that night I haven't "felt" anything in there but I still will not sleep in there.

E-Elise is my name. I always though it would be prettier if it were spelled Elyse but I don't think I would ever change it. I was named after a sweet old lady in a trailer park that my mother would visit teach. My only memory of the lady is that she had a candy bowl in the middle of her coffee table with ribbon candy in it. If you took a piece, all the candy would come out in one huge chunk cause it was all fused together from old age and the humidity (yuck!)

N- Naughty. Sad to say sometimes I have a really naughty mind. Always joking of course whether it by sexual or violent. It is probably something I should work on before my kids get much older. Remember the movie "sixth sense", when the dead boy is walking down the hallway and says "Wanna see where my dad keeps his gun?" and then turns around and the back of his head is blown away? I saw that movie in the theater and I was laughing so hard at that part and people were looking at me funny. And what can I say but boobs are funny especially when you get me, leaner, and abenanna together.

E- Eventually. I am the biggest procrastinator. My best writing, homework, cooking, whatever, happens if I wait til the last minute. Sometimes it bites back when I do this but not enough to make me quit.

V- Violin. I have always wanted to learn to play the violin. Joe's dad gave me his old one but I just haven't taken the time. I just need to get off my butt and give out some effort.

I- Insecure. Sometimes I have a hard time believing in me. My weight, school, did I do anything today? If I did something is it good enough?

E-Eccentric. I am weird. Weird foods, colors, movies....weird is just more interesting.

V- Virginia.....hmmmm never been there.

E- Endings. I like endings. The ending to Harry Potter (awesome and worthwhile) The ending to Titanic.....sucked, I can't believe the old lady threw that necklace off the ship while these poor scientist guys were looking so hard for it. Ending to Top Chef this year was good but I wanted the gay guy with the mohawk to win. Never Ending Story is such an awesome movie, part 2 was pretty alright.....don't watch part 3 unless you want bad acting including a young Jack Black. Ending to "Paying it Forward", I still cry every time. My middle name is way too long so I am happy for this ending...

Virginia - went there twice this year but can't really say I've been there as all I saw was the airport, hotel and cox media offices - yeah fun. As for ribbon candy, it really doesn't have to be old to stick together. I learned that the hard way when I bought a nice pretty box of it last Christmas and put it in a candy bowl. By the next morning it was a stuck together mess.

LOL! You sound a lot more positive than that last post. I miss you. And your take on our lovely middle name is WAY better than my drug-induced one (a cold that just keeps lingering...)

Scary about the ghost. Mirrors totally freak me out, too. But you know that!

BOOBS!

OK, now I'm official so you're going to have to keep writing whether you're awake or not! And yeah, mirrors tend to reflect what I don't want to see...me! How did I get this old this quick!
