tryptophan

spelling on that? well, turkey didn't make me tired this past weekend. it was such a good weekend...and it went by in such a blur.

i got home tuesday night after some roast beef and curly fries as my last post stated. then wednesday i woke up at 10ish and proceeded to get ready for my day. my number one thing to do on wednesday was to go and get my passport taken care of. i finally had enough money to do so and once i was ready, i went to get my birth certificate, the official one, the one i ordered so that i could get my driver's license so i know it was in the house.

unfortunatly it was no where to be found. not in my baby book, not in my file of important stuff, not in my couple of boxes in the basement that were haphazardly thrown to the side of the storage room in the basement (i felt so loved).

so still no passport. but i did pick up pep band music for friday and talked to T and i mailed squares bday present a whole month and a week late.

wednesday night my family went to the pep rally for our high school football team. can i get a GREEN WAVE?!!?!! they were heading off to the section AAA championship game thursday night, which hasn't been done in 19 years. i opted to stay home and play the sims, i wouldn't have much to do there and the sims are addicting.

thursday i woke to last minute cleaning for turkey day. after the house and myself was all cleaned up, zerek and i ran to conquer kmart, the only store open in the grand cities, so of course, everyone and their mother was there. our mission? harry potter and the prisiner of azkaban on dvd. mission accomplished, after much struggling and teasing of the old guy who was apparently sleeping the the van parked in front of us...we thought he was dead for a second and then he licked his lips, must have been anticipating the turkey to come!

thanksgiving that night with the stadems was supurb. we had 2 turkeys, one for my mom that was gluten free and another seasoned one for the rest of us. the mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing and everything else was wonderful. i even had wine with the meal, but it seemed very strong...not used to it i guess. the rest of the night was spent talking and watching the apprentice.

friday morning started at 7 am which i woke up showered and then it was off to the bus to head down to the cities for the championship game. it was kind of funny because once again, i was on bob's bingo and booze bus, the same bus i toke 2 weekends before to the mall of america. though this time the bingo and booze wasn't there...at least the bingo anyway. it was a long ride down and it was snowy and icy, the first we've had for the year...winter's finally here! we arrived at the metrodome at around 2:45 and the game between pierz and another school was in session still and it was halftime. the pierz dance team came out and entertained us and they were good..except for the 2 who kept kicking the wrong way, but that's ok. pierz won and then i was over with the pep band for the warm up for the waves!

the game was great, it was kind of like high school again, with all the colors and the cheering, except i was sitting with my mom and brother, which if i was in high school still, i probably wouldn't be. we had all the girls with the slutty greenwave shirts they had made just barely hanging on them. one girl had her pants rip and she despretly tried to keep those together in the back. other than that, it was a great game! we won 31-14 and it was our first football state championship! which this is huge for a small town that has big competition with all the schools in the cities. you can click here to see my sister in all of her greenwave gear.

saturday i slept in, needing the sleep after not getting home until 2 am. we waited at the metrodome until the players came out to their bus to congratulate them. mr.nelson came on our bus with the trophy and we all cheered and it was all good fun. saturday was spent slowing taking out xmas decorations and then zerek, my mom and i hit up target where she got some shopping done but i didn't find anything. then that night we went over to stadems to have dinner with my grandparents who were in the cities for turkey day. then we retreated to pop culture trivia pursuit which zerek found out he doesn't like...basically because, well, he's not good at it.

then i did a mock up for the championship sweatshirt for the welcome home rally for the football team that night and then the next morning it was church at good old sharon lutheran. it was wonderful...it's the start of advent! and then i pretty much headed straight back for btown from there, i had a ton of homework to do, which frankely, i didn't do too much of. tv's addicting, don't start or you'll never stop.

peace.
