Soon To Be Sweet Sixteen

Lordie be, I haven't blogged in so long. But, i'm here now and i'm talking! Ok well Ashley, my best friend isn't feeling very well so she won't be blogging. I haven't been up to much lately. Tuesday, i'll be 16. I don't feel like it. My party will be a week from tomorrow and i'm looking forward to that. I'm so used to my dad video taping my parties, but he won't be there so I really have no one to do it for me. I wish I did. I would love to have my Sweet 16 on video, but I may have to go without.

Last year for my birthday, I spent the day in Woodstock. It was amazing to see where Janis, and all the other people that don't matter as much as Janis played that weekend. Its a beautiful place. Even the shops that are there now were really something! Although, I found a lot more Janis items in Lake George.

(last year on my birthday in Woodstock with my dad and Erin)

This year for my birthday, I didn't ask for anything Janis. (God has been more than kind to me when it came to Janis) I have all the Janis i'll ever need. This year I asked for things with Jane Fonda's mugshot on it. Yes, I know - JaneFonda? YES! She's awesome. You can't NOT love her. And if you don't love her, well fuck ya then. Ok sorry...that was a bit much.



School starts on September 2nd. I do love my school, the teachers, the kids, but not the work. I manage merit list but wish I could do better. Don't we all? I can't believe I have only 2 years left before i'm on my own. College, to me is a MUST. My mother would kill me if I didn't go. I want to go, but not here. I know in my heart that I belong in New York. I've only been to the city once but i'll never forget it. I know thats where i'm supposed to be. Forget everywhere else. I can come visit my family, but God how I love to be alone. I never sleep in the first place which is why I want to be a 3rd shift ER nurse (dream big, right?) and New York NEVER sleeps.



Who knows what will happen? As for right now, i'm 15 for a few more days. Still in my "First Act" as Jane Fonda would say and Tuesday I will start the 2nd half of my first act. Time flies. Well, sweet dreams everyone! Until next time....

I Believe In Music

Hello loves! Ok, so i'm so tired but I just had to blog. I haven't blogged in a while, but neither has Jane Fonda! I'm going nuts without reading her blog. Anyway, today was my grandmothers birthday and we had a party for her. Ally (one of my best friends) came and we planned out new stories to write. Thats what we do. We're story writers, but mostly story tellers. Bette Midler once said, "I never know how much of what I say is true." Not to confuse us with liars. Thats not what i'm saying.

So, what else? Well...i'm talking to my other best Ashley discussing our next movie night. Wanna hear how sad this is. Ok, well she lives in FL & I live in RI so since we're both obsessed with Bette Midler, OF COURSE we own all her movies. So every once in a while we put the same movie in, press play at the same time, and watch the movie while we're on the phone. We take turns picking the movie, but its always BETTE!

How funny is that...shes 17 and i'm 15. Normal girls our age are into the Jonas Brothers (who by the way, i'm seeing Friday with my younger sister) and Miley Cyrus and blah blah blah. And we're into...BETTE MIDLER? Lol. Its insane, but we are! I'm not saying the other people I mentioned aren't talented, but God - i've never seen a talent quite like Bette!

For years I always thought she was just the Wind Beneath My Wings lady. Well hell, she is, but SHE'S SO MUCH MORE! Once I heard her sing Stay With Me Baby I knew she was something else. Her version of I Shall Be Released touched me, I Believe In You makes me cry, Twisted is a GREAT feel good song. And oh my God lets not forget about her insane version of Beast Of Burden. Wow! Bette...is really amazing! Not to mention the fact that she is gorgeous!!!

Ok, enough about Bette. I'm gonna wrap this up because Ashley is losing her shit over the fact that she has to choose the movie. Lord! Later babes!

Thank You For Being A Friend

Sophia: I need the money for my old age.

Dorothy: Old age? You don't leave fingerprints anymore.

Rose: My mother always used to say: "The older you get, the better you get, unless you're a banana."

Rebecca: I'm havin' this baby in a birthin' center. They emphasize natural childbirth without any painkillers.

Blanche: Honey, I know I told you where babies come from, but did I ever mention where they come OUT?

Blanche: Well, just tell him you have a lot of work at home.

Rose: I don't want to lie.

Blanche: When you get home, we'll make you clean out the garage.

Rose: Oh thanks, I owe you big for this one.

Rose: Well, I'm here if you want to pick my brain.

Dorothy: Rose, honey. Maybe we should leave it alone and let it heal.

Rose: Sophia, why are you in such a bad mood?

Sophia: Excuse me Rose, but I haven't had sex in fifteen years and its starting to get on my nerves.

Dorothy: Hi, ma. Where are you going?

Sophia: To the boardwalk. I like to watch the old guys rearrange themselves when they come out of the water.

Hello boys! I haven't blogged in quite some time. Whats new with me? Not much. I might be heading to six flags on Saturday but i'd rather have car insurance. I painted my nails today while watching "Friends." I saw another frog and wanted to run but I was in heels, so I just...sprinted. I'm reading The First Wives Club, by Olivia Goldsmith. That is one of my favorite, favorite, favorite, favorite, movies. I had a first date with someone while we watched that movie. Its one of those movies I've seen a million times that I can say every word along to it. Brenda's my favorite. Why? Because BETTE plays her! Duhhh.

Alright, so everytime I watch Micheal Jackson's daughter speak at his service yesterday, I cry. No, I don't cry - I sob! The poor thing. God bless his children right now. I will be praying for them for a long time. RIP Baby! We love you!!!!

Lily and Bette...and Lily and Bette!

Today I decided that I was going to put 3 pool rings around me and jump in the pool at 8 o'clock at night. It was freezing. So I jumped in and sat in the tubes for a little bit, then decided to get out and jump in again. Well - when I got to the ladder, right in the wood was a frog and it croaked at me. I hate frogs. So I screamed!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I tried to get out of the pool by pulling myself onto the deck, but because I had the damn rings around me I couldn't! So Erin, my sister was trying to pull them off and she was laughing so hard that she couldn't. Then I was screaming for my mom, but she was no help because she kept trying to figure out where the frog was and yelled at me for having all these rings on. So then my mom pulled them off and I got out of the pool screaming. Oh man do I hate frogs. I'm not and out doorsy type really. So we couldn't find the frog, but later my mom said there was one on our deck. Ewwwwwwww!!!!

Then later on, I watched Big Business starring Bette Midler, Lily Tomlin, Bette Midler & Lily Tomlin. (They play twins seperated at birth) It's HISTERICAL! Lily and her snake rattle bracelete and Bette with her press on nails that she should have pressed harder on. Its so adorable!! I love both of them. Well, what I was going to say was that I watched it while I was on the phone with my best friend Ashley. She lives in Florida so sometimes we have "Movie Night" where we watch a Bette Midler movie (because she is GOD) and we watch it on the phone. Its easy because we both own them all....well most of them. The First Wives Club is one of our favorite. We hear that they may be doing a First Wives Club2. That'd be awesome!!!

Okay, so tomorrow is the 4th of July and i'm going to Connecticut! Maybe, if I get some...I'll post pictures from tomorrow on here. Sunday is our big 5th of July cookout. I hope the frogs gone by then.

Goodnight everyone!

xoxoxo

You can reach me by railway...I mean, ambulance.

As the 4th of July nears, I realize that a lot of people have birthdays on July 4th. My family friend's son Tyler will be 11. I remember when he was 5! Wow. My dad's uncle will be 60 which means we're all going to Connecticut Saturday to visit, and my new adopted mom, MamaKat will be....? Hmmm. Older. Anyway, tonight I want to write about nothing. I'm tired, I had a long run night last night on the ambulance. Calls at 530om, 730pm & 4am. I honest to God love that! I could run the ambulance all week if I just got some sleep. I was talking with one of the girls this morning at the station (6am if you were wondering) and we both agreed that when you sleep at the station, you never get a full nights sleep. It sucks.

When a call comes in, we have to find the place, exam the patient there, if it is bad enough we have to get them ready to take to the hospital, put them in the ambulance, get them to the hospital, talk to the nurses about what happened, then we clean out the truck, put new bedding on the stretcher and off we go. Rhode Island is a small state, but MAN - it takes forever to get from point A to point B. The whole process from when we recieve the call to when we're back at the station takes about a good two hours. You'd never know it though because so much is going on and the time flies. It is really something though. I can't imagine myself ever quitting.

Okay, I said I was tired. I am! I'm getting off now. (No, Ashley...come on thats not what I meant. Don't think I can't read your mind. Perv!) Oh Ash, one question - Did you ever get a final price for the Divine Miss. M's tampon on ebay? Did you know who spend her last pennies on it? Hahaha

GOOD NIGHT ALL!
