wow... a good two hours later and I haven't done anything but continue to read all throughout solo en bici. From his newsletters, to his info and inspirations... I'm still not through with the vast scrapbook of photos! I can only try and encourage you all to give it a closer look, an open mind, and a lot of time!

While chatting with family friends (my dad's highschool classmate,) I found out about bike it solo: an amazing story/fete a young man accomplished all on his own (aside from God's strong hand.) One can't help but be inspired by his bravery, faith, and determination! Heck, I can't even ride a bike...

wee!

funny thing is: I seriously wanted to be a lawyer all through growing up!

I found out how to make my butt long entries (or lists of silly quizes) expand/collapse as opposed to always sending you to the archives! Enjoy!

this whole "day of the week" collab things is cool and all, if I could stay on top of it... and they didn't confuse me with funny dates and stuff! *grr-y tone* Errr...

So who out there is as a fan of Scruples as I? Any game worthy to be mentioned at a funeral is good in my book! (more on that later, ask if you need to know)

saturday scruples:

1. In a "must win football game, your coach tells you to target the rival quarterback's recent knee injury. Do you obey?
   depends on what "target the injury" means. If it's "go at it and make it worse" no, if it's "know your opponent's weeknesses" yes.
   
2. Your cool new look gets you nowhere because your best friend looks like trailer trash. Do you avoid being seen with him/her?
   no, First off, when's the last time I got such a knock-out new look that it was worhty of butt attention? Second, friends are friends forever *starts swaying as old-school Michael W. Smith overcomes her*, and I pride myself on being one that's true blue!
   
3. When a young waitress leans forward to wipe tables, you have a magnificent view not meant for you. Do you keep looking?
   um, no! I'm a girl... even if I were a boy, my mottos are "Avert your eyes!" & "Keep your clothes on, boy [substitute: 'girl' as need be]!"

better late than never, right? I admit that last week I wasn't all gung ho for some reason, the 5 just didn't tickle my fancy... so I skipped (don't tell the principle on me!) But his week is neat-o speedo *yuck image popped into mind*, scratch that rhyme, um... cool!
So, without further ado, I present to you a saturday edition of the friday 5:

JJ is actually in the ICU. Don't fret, they just wanted to make sure thay could observe him often enough to know if he needed to go into surgery. At this point that is highly unlikely, so hopefully he'll be into a real room for the rest of the weekend. Meanwhile, his spirits are amazingly up! Aside from the fact that there's not a whole lotta convo, since breathing is still difficult due to the pain. I left my dvd player with LOTR and the Matrix (we tried all the finaggling we could muster. Alas, he's stuck with the tiny screen 'cause the hospital's a/v equipment isn't up to par!)

On the Tar-Tar front, she's left us all a message o' farewell-ness on her upsaid/sundried site. I hope this isn't really g'bye... I mean, where's my hug!? *sigh of relief* She did say she'd be at Danno's bon voyage... so she better!
