It is sleep time, so I'm going to try to make this quick

Few fun things I've learned/heard today:
Richard's shorts are frontin'
The turtle is eating the sheit!
Craig Ferguson is appauled by Regis's impression of his accent.
Oh yeah, and my tag expired in June.

Okay, I think that's all for today, if you want to know more of what I learned, you can check out Rodney's blog, it is quite facinating.

A quick look into the future:

Tuesday, at the butt crack of dawn, I leave for Florida, I won't be back until like 4 in the afternoon on the following Monday. Whoo! My first 'business' trip. I know that probably doesn't mean a whole lot, but I'm kindda hoping to get to go to Hawaii with them one of these years, because that would be incredibly awesome. It's incredibly awesome that I'm going this time actually. I mean, they're paying for my food, and my hotel room, and the rental car (since I'm not yet old enough to rent one) is my boss, and it's gonna be fun, I hope. But either way, it's an experience, that will look good later on in life. Plus, I'm hoping to do a good enough job at it, that they 'need' me to go to others in the future. What can I say? I love airplanes, and I love to travel. The one big down side to this all, is that I'm going to miss out on all the fun that you guys are having around here for a week, including Tuesday lunchday, and as I understand it, I'm gonna miss Richard, Alex and Sheena for a grand total of two weeks, since they are to be leaving just before I am arriving. It is sad, I know. I'm gonna be all like boyfriendless for two weeks. But he will be having fun, and that's definately a good thing. I will hopefully be having fun while I'm not working, also a good thing, and definately be sleeping more, a wonderful thing as well. In the end, I don't know if this is gonna be as fun as I hope it will be, since I'm the only one under 30ish who will be there working, and not on a team, but it will definately be an experience, and it will be not OK. And I'm gonna miss Richard, but don't tell him that.

Anyhow, it is time for me to sleep, gotta be at work bright and early at 9 am tomorrow morning. Goodnight, sleep well, sweet dreams, take care. Bye, MEO

PS. I'm sorry it was so long, it was alot longer than I intended it to be.

Duck pond!

Have you ever noticed how great the duckpond is? No matter how out of it, or whatever you are, you can go there, and throw some bread in the water, and suddenly it feels alot better. It is just soo relaxing. Whooo! I love the duckpond!!! Oh yeah, and I saw a cop in the duck pond today/this evening I guess. It was getting to be quite dark, and he was just walking through. He was really nice. He said 'hi', and asked how I was doing and everything. I was kindda expecting him to tell me that the park is closed after dark, or how I shouldn't be out there alone after dark or something like that. But he didn't. He seemed in a good mood, and kindda to be in a hurry. But it made me happy. Conclusion: the duck pond is really peaceful, the only cop I've seen there is really nice, and it's the next best thing to camping.

Over and Out, MEO

words can never hurt me.

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me. Funny how false that is, huh? You know what's even more funny though? How the lack of any action can be worse than a bad action.

Later,
Elizabeth.

Happy Fourth & the duck I call Earl!!!!

Okay, so today was kindda alot of driving around and everything. Just alot of bored, what the hell is there to do in Norman. Anyhow, somewhere along the way, we ended up at the duckpond with corn flakes. We were planning on just feeding the turtles with it, but then, the ducks just came up, and they looked so hungry we had to feed them. We're trying to let them off easy, so tabs holds a bit above them, and this little duck, the one that first saw us and came running, does a little hop for it. It was really funny, so we tried it again, and he did it again, he was really funny lookin'. He was great though. I named him Earl. He's fun. He can also catch corn flakes in his beak. He rocks my world, and sparklers, illegally burnt on the fourth of july also rock my world, and drawing on the sidewalk with chalk on the fouth of july rocks my world. Just so many things that rock my world, so few that send it crashing to the ground. It is a good thing. but as for me, now, I really, really must sleep, I'm really tired, and exhausted. so goodnight, sleep well, sweet dreams, take care, and goodnight. Elizabeth.

Marvin the Duck


Marvin the Duck... what to say? we met him only briefly, and decided to name him Marvin, or at least, I decided to name him Marvin. So, it's hot out, we decide to go for a swim, so we're swimming around, for a good 40 minutes or so, and in flies this little brown duck. He's not fat, but he's full grown. We look at it, it looks at us, as if to say, "Duck off, and get out of my swimming area." It starts quacking at us, "quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, QUACK, QUACK, QUACK, QUACK, QUACK!" What an incessant little bugger. So anyhow, we get out, to try to coerce it into getting into the pool, since that's what we assumed it wants anyhow. He just continues to look at the pool and quack. We slowly make our way around him, behind him, towards him. He freaks out, and up and flies away. Poor duck. To Marvin, whereever he should be, come back, and you can swim in the pool.
