I realized something

Sorry I haven't been really writting like I used to. I've been sort of sad. I did realize something the other day while I was eating breakfast though.Since the recession there have been a lot less marshmallows in Lucky Charms. I also did a taste test to see if the generic brand of Lucky Charms tasted better and it does. The non marshmallow stuff is way better and less soggy. I think they might have a little higher quality marshmallows too.

Treasure!

Do you remember those random movies from when you were little that no one else remembers but you? Well today I was strolling through the ARC store and found "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Turtles' Awesome Easter" on VHS! I used to love that movie.Thrift stores are so fun. I also bought a Guns N Roses record. I don't have a record player but want one real bad.

Singing Lesson

My friends Trina, Katie, and I wanted to learn how to sing. We thought Youtube would be a good place to start and this is who we found.

This time of year has got me reminiscing...

Penny Lane was a special Beta fish that lived in a bowl, on Stacey’s desk. She loved to watch TV and Stacey doing homework. The days went on leading up to November 28th Stacey’s birthday! Stacey was going to have a very special ugly sweater birthday party the week before.


It was finally the night of the party. The keg was tapped and the sweaters were on. Everyone was having such a great time. Stacey wanted to share her great time with Penny Lane. She brought up Penny Lane and fed her a little bit of birthday cake.


The next morning Stacey awoke to a fish bowl full of birthday cake! “How did this happen?” Stacey thought. She new at once she must clean out her fish bowl. During this cleaning she was talking to her roommates about how one time her sister dropped her fish down the sink. She looked down and realized Penny Lane was gone!!! She was down the sink! Stacey reached her hand down the drain and felt Penny Lane flopping around. After many failed attempts, Stacey pulled Penny Lane out alive. From that day on Penny Lane swam like a cork screw.


When it was time to visit home for Thanksgiving break Stacey brought Penny Lane along with. Stacey’s mom thought that it would be a good idea for Penny Lane to stay at home until Stacey returned for winter break. It was a sad couple weeks for Stacey without her friend. She counted down the days until she could see her again. When the day came for these friends to be united, Stacey raced home to her parent’s house and ran through the doors. She looked everywhere but could not find Penny Lane! She asked her mom who nonchalantly told her that Penny Lane died the day after she left back after Thanksgiving break. She forgot to tell her! It was a very sad day indeed for Stacey.

It's events like these that make me realize how awesome my life is...

Last night, roommate Kaitlyn and I went to this speaker thing on Mental Health awareness for this campus project we are a part of. We went early because we had to volunteer. We were in the bathroom talking about how Kaitlyn couldn't pee because she was pee shy. It was one of those stall to stall conversations. When I was washing my hands she was still in the stall telling me about how it sucks to have a tiny bladder and was going on and on. In the middle of her story a lady walked in the bathroom. Kaitlyn kept going with her story until I "shhhed." This lady heard about Kaitlyn's small bladder issues. We laughed and thought “no big deal we will never see her again.”

Fast forward 15 minutes...

At the beginning of this presentation the opening speaker welcomed the first lady of Colorado to this presentation. The first lady stood up and IT WAS THE LADY THAT WAS IN THE BATHROOM!!! So now the Governor of Colorado’s wife knows about Kaitlyn's peanut sized bladder.

Tool of the Week

***I decided to delete the tool's pictures because I didn't want to be a cyber bully.

A tool and proud of it!!!!

Quotes:

It's been a while

Some things I would like to tell you:

1.Today I walked around the entire library before realizing my pants were on backwards.Just another day in the life of Stacey.

2.I woke up sunday morning with Michael Vicks signature on my arm...NOT OKAY!

3. At Taco Bell the ther day I slipped on the ice and ate it. I threw my food at my roommate on accident. My knee popped and it still hurts.When I got home I realized they put beef in my food when I specifically made clearly not to do because I am a vegetarian. I had to go back and they gave me free cinnimon twists (probably because I was so nice to them even though I was secretly LIVID!)

4. I was Lady Ga Ga and Luigi for Halloween. What were you? I will probably put pictures up cause I worked hard on the outfits.

PS I didn't wear a Luigi hat due to my abnormally large sized head and I was not being a slut intentially when I was Lady Ga Ga...she really wore that and I love her.

Spooky Story

I am going to tell you a story that happened to me last night. I’m going to tell it so it feels like it is happening to you!


Character: You are a 20 year old (almost 21!) short blond girl named Stacey. You are not that strong physically but super sassy. You tend to get scared really easily.

Setting: Greeley Colorado. It’s a small rural farm town that is full of so many gangs! You live a little too close to the railroad tracks if you know what I mean. Next to your house there is a concert venue. Your back lot is a scary and dark. It is 9:30 at night and really, really dark and cold.

Situation: It is Wednesday and you are taking the 1/4th Latina you have in you to make a meal for your friends. You decide to taste test the green chili. It was the spiciest food you have ever tasted!!! Oh no you are out of tomatoes to help neutralize it!!! You have to drive to the grocery store with your friends to get more! You hop into your Jeep to drive to the store. On your way to pull on to the street you look to your left. There are two gangsters spray painting “18th street gang” on the concert venue. One gangster stops and just stares at you. He has a mean fearless look in his face while his friend continues spray painting. You drive off really scared and call your roommates to tell them to lock themselves inside. Then you call 911. The dispatcher is really worried. Your roommate calls you and tells you the police want to talk to you. When you get home you see a super sexy police man whose muscles seem to be about to pop out of his uniform. He asks you to file a witness report. You tell him everything. You think to yourself, “what if this gangster gets mad that you told on him and kills you!?” The end

I was scared. Now reading this story I feel that I overreacted.

I with wish that I would of thought to tell the police man that as a witness, I do not feel safe at home so maybe I should sleep at his house ;) He can pull me over any time.

Not sure if I should be offended or not....

Have you ever gone to the website textsfromlastnight.com? It is a really funny website where people submit ridiculous texts they received. Each text starts off by the area code. I logged on expecting many laughs but instead found a text that possibly could have been about me!!!! A not nice one I might add.


(303): She said she had a thing for dinosaurs.Come get me now!

303 is my area code!!! I love dinosaurs. I love to talk about dinosaurs...especially when I drink. I’m not sure if I have ever said that I had a "thing" for dinosaurs. Dinosaurs are not a fetish of mine...It is just an interest of mine.

Anyway, there are probably many girls in the 3oh!3 that love dinosaurs but this made me very sad. Maybe this is why I am still single.

Also, I think tomorrow I will write a blog about why dinosaurs are so cool.

Just a few things

1. I went to visit my sister this afternoon for lunch cause it was her birthday yesterday. She told me she won a Snuggie yesterday. I tried it on.....feels like a hug from Jesus.

2. This is a very funny video you should watch.


3. On my way to see my sister I accidentally cut off a former professor of mine. I got nervous that she knew who I was so I pretended like I was crying so she would think I am just having a bad day and forgive me for cutting her off.

Videos to watch when you are sad

Cool things I have

I got this Shannon Sharpe mask at the Broncos vs. Browns game a couple of weeks ago. They had these because Shannon was being inducted into the ring of fame during half time. My whole family cried when we saw it. We get very emotional about the Broncos.

I really love this mask a lot because he is my favorite player ever! He is really funny too. I think I will post a clip of him doing something funny.

Ohhh and I think that Shannon Sharpe and I have a lot of things in common. Our initials are the same and we are both full of sass.

Don't Judge, and Some Dog News

My roommate Kaitlyn has had her jaw wired shut for two months. This is her last week. My other roommates and I are only eating liquids this week for support. This means I will have to drink protein shakes. Don't think I am a tool.

I also have some other news. I was talking to my dog Millie today and I decided to do an experiment. I wanted to see if she could understand me. So I thought that I would speak her her in English and then in a made up language. I first said, "Hey, can you understand me?" She wagged her tail. Then I said, "Chang chong wang wong." She didn't wag her tail. I now know she can understand me.

Sorry

I'm sorry I haven't written in a while. I've been taking a lot of naps. I had to go home to my parents house this weekend cause my little sister had homecoming, I am going to the Bronco game, AND I'm getting a haircut. I thought I would let you know that my parents are annoyed again with me.This time its cause I keep singing "Dirty Diana" by Michael Jackson. Oh boy, I sure do miss him. I also thought I'd let you know that I thought the words to the song by Billy Ocean were, "get out of my fridge, get into my car." The words are really, "get out of my DREAMS, get into my car." As you can probably tell, I've been listening to a lot of 80's music lately. This is because my roommate is having an 80's party Wednesday.

I just figured out something about me

I ALWAYS walk in on people before they hookup. Not on purpose. The mood is always ruined. That got me thinking that I am birth control in human form. Who knows what these peoples shenanigans could of led to if I had not intervened. Babies could be popping out everywhere! You're welcome friends.

Tool of the Week

*** I decided to delete the Tool'spictures because I didn't want to be a cyber bully.

"Yea that's Jack Elway's towel on my bed."

"Which Range Rover are you talking about? A lot of kids at my school drive Range Rovers and Hummers"


"I don't have a girlfriend.... I don't even like that girl so come here and kiss me already" (meanwhile his gf is at home and just got her wisdom teeth out)

"It's okay if you're not as good as me, it's hard to beat me because I'm good at so many different things"
 
*A special thanks to Kate for submitting the TOTW

RUDE!

I was watching TV and this thing came on that reminded me of the movie Ghost. I told my mom I really missed Patrick Swayze. Do you know what she said? She said, "You don't know Patrick Swayze Stacey, so you can't miss him." I was offended.  Even though she said something so rude, I will still forgive her because I love her a lot.

If you don't believe me I will be really mad

So I would like to tell you that I am one fourth Mexican. I really like how I am Mexican but a lot of people don't believe me. My great grandparents on my mom's dad's side were from not only from Mexico but also Apache Indians. I may have blonde hair, blue eyes and skin that burns easily in the sun, but I do have a little Latina in me and I can whip up a batch of salsa like you have never tasted. To help you understand, I have included a family tree.

Its kinda hard to see, but the red smiley faces mean Mexixcan (I put this color cause it is in the Mexican flag, and is easier to see than green)

Cool things I have.

I decided to show you some cool things I have. My room is one giant treasure chest.

These are my dinosaur jammies. My friend Heather told me that they had them at Target so I rushed out and bought them. They have feet! I like to sleep in them not only cause they have dinos but also cause they are warm.

My day has been filled with more tools than a Home Depot

I like most people. There is one group of people that annoy me and they are the “Tools” or in more extreme cases the “Douche bags.” I have come to find that many people do not know what a Tool/ Douche bag is. Let me explain.


Tool-ology 101

• A “Tool” is a mild form of “Douche bag.”

• The word “D-bag” is commonly used for “Douche bag.”

• While most of these puzzling creatures are easily identifiable, you cannot always tell a Tool from appearance alone.

• Most Tools do not know they are Tools. In fact, many mistake their douche bag-ness for coolness.

Has this gotten you questioning yourself? Are you a Tool? Below is a checklist of tool behavior. This list is for men only. Woman Tools are harder to identify. This may also help you recognize a tool if you see one.

Tool Checklist (Men)

_ You own a pair of white sunglasses.

_ You wear, or wish you wore Ed Hardy clothes.

_Your favorite food is a protein shake.

_ Most pictures of yourself were taken by you, in front of the mirror.

_One or more of these said pictures is of you gently lifting up your shirt to show your “ripped stomach.”

_ You wear giant faux diamond earrings.

_The gym is your natural habitat.

_You use more hairspray than a girl on prom night.

_You speak with a New Jersey accent and are not even from the East Coast.

_ People can often smell your cologne before they even see you.

_You love to drive around in your pimped out car listening to dirty hip-hop songs, and “holler at fine bitches”

_You still pop your collar

If you checked two or more these you need to have a self-evaluation to make sure you are not a Tool. If you have checked more than five then congratulations, you skipped Tool and went right to Douche bag.

I wish he was my friend

1. He is so friendly and caring.
2. That green is a really nice color on him.
3. His voice is very soothing.

Gangs are scary

I like to watch gangland sometimes. There was this really scary gang that was really really really mean. I don't want to watch the show anymore cause now I get scared when I sleep. I think that these gangs need to be nicer. I am thinking of a plan to make people nicer but I'm not sure what yet. I wish that a big group hug would help things. Maybe I will just hug sad people then they won't want to be mean.

Funny things and life lessons

I was thinking about how funny it is when people fall down. Even if they get hurt I still think its so funny. It's like that one time in the dorms when I was trying to do calf-raises on my desk chair and chair fell out from under me. It hurt really bad but I'm sure it looked hilarious.


This incident of mine reminded me of some life lessons I have learned and I think you should know them.

• Don't do calf-raises on chairs.
• Don't spray your pepper spray in the toilet to make sure it works.
• Don't stick a penny up your nose.
• Using your rollerblades on ice is not the same as ice skating and is very dangerous.
• If your gel deodorant is clogged do not continue to twist the knob while it is pointed at your eye.
• Be very careful while using a paper cutter in the darkroom

BREAKING NEWS!!!

I asked my mom and she said she loves me AND likes me. So does my dad. I'm still not sure about my sister thought but I will ask her tomorrow.

I'm not sure if my parents like me

I know they LOVE me but I don't know if they LIKE me. Trina my roommate thinks that they like me but I'm not sure if she is truthful or trying to be nice. I think its because I always spill stuff on the carpet and eat all the cupcakes when I come home. Sometimes I eat chips in their bed and watch Nickleodeon and I think that I might get crumbs in their sheets. I can't help it that I lost the remote for the TV in my room and that their bed is more comfortable. I think that they also might get annoyed when I get really hyper and scream loud when I see my dog. And my mom says I need to stop singing so loud. My little sister might like me or might not Im not quite sure. I love to hug her really hard and she yells at me. Sometimes I punch her in the butt as a joke and she does not laugh.

Maybe I will try to not spill stuff. I also think that I might make them a cool present but I don't know what yet.

I had a really scary dream...more like nightmare!

My dream was really exciting at first because there were bats in there. Bats are probably one of my top 10 favorite animals. Why you may ask?

• Bats are the ONLY flying mammal in existence. If you are thinking "Oh Stacey you are so dumb you don't know anything. What about flying squirrels?" I would have to say to you that you are not only rude, but also very WRONG! Flying squirrels do not fly they just glide.

• One brown bat can eat up to 1000 mosquitoes in one hour!!

• Bats are more related to humans than rodents

• Bats can live 32 years!!!!

So yea to say I was excited in the beginning of this dream would be an understatement. All of a sudden the bats turned slimy and really really mean. They kept biting me. I was surprised cause bats are usually very non-aggressive creatures. Then I realized, these are not bats they are monsters that look like bats. I was so scared. Then I woke up. Thank God it was only a dream.

A really good message

Five euros and two dollars richer

I had to wear my roommate's onesie pajamas to the grocery store. People stared and laughed. Its ok though because I got five euros and two dollars. Hopefully my roommate will let me have one of her cookies too but I don't know yet. I wish I brought my wallet the the store so then I could buy some orange gatorade. I also wish that I could drink orange gatorade all day everyday.

Too much Hatorade

I've been feeling bad about how much I hate Colbie Caillat and Natasha Bedingfield lately. I'm sure they are nice people. Its not nice of me and I need to try to overcome this. I just needed to get this off my chest.

I just saw a man dressed as a dradle and it got me thinking

Everything on TV right now is about Jewish people. This one guy was dressed like a Dradle and dancing. This show made me really happy. It made me want to play the Dradle game even though I'm not Jewish. One time when I was little, I won some chocolate from the Dradle game and that is my main reason for wanting to play it again.

This show also reminded me of questions I have for God about heaven.
1. Do I get to meet all of the aliens from other planets who have died when I go to heaven?
2. Are the dinosaurs in the same heaven as humans and if not is there anyway I could visit them?
3. Do bugs go to heaven? I get mad at them a lot but it would be sad if they didn't get to go.

98% sure I'm a Wizard

So I've been thinking a lot about how I might be a wizard (technically a witch but wizard sounds nicer). I guess looking back on it everything makes sense.

I have compiled a list of just a few reasons I might be magical.

• When I was eight, I had my own little bubblegum machine. One day I put an American penny in it and it got stuck. When I turned the knob back it was a Canadian one.
• I have many dreams that come true the next day.
• My most recent experiences have been at my parent’s house. I think the minister of magic is trying to give me clues. The other day I went into my kitchen to find a pyramid of snack packs. The next day I find a mountain of Einstein bagels. Definitely magic.
  

Either my parents are wizards and just wanted a normal life, or they hid the letter of my acceptance into a witch craft and wizardry school. Oh and I forgot. My last name is Sidebottom. If that is not a wizard name I don’t know what is.

All of this magic talk got me thinking of things from Harry Potter that would be really cool in real life.

• Apparition (teleportation)- What would this solve? No traffic, gas, accidents, or air pollution from vehicles just to name a few.
• Marauders map- Once at work I really needed to text my mom and was nervous my manager would catch me. If I had the Marauders map I would be able to see where my manager was at all times.
• Ron Weasley
• Accio [insert thing your are trying to find or summon]- I lose things a lot and this spell would help me.
