Hanging around with my grandmothers lately has brought about so many mysteries in my mind, such as why do they always try to give me their clothes?
My grandmothers are 72 and 77 and yet they both seem to be convinced that I would enjoy wearing clothes that they themselves do not want!!!! They also seem to think that I want clothes right off their backs. If I ever compliment one of my grandma's on her clothes she tries to give them to me, I don't want them!! I said they look nice on you..you who are 72 and while you do in fact look nice in them they're just not my style. Last week my grandma tried to give me her winter coat, a very nice gesture indeed and it was a nice coat for grandma but not for me, I'm always trying to think of nice ways to say that I don't want the clothes but alas I've decided the firm way is best--I won't ever wear that seems to rebuff along with the statement, it looks fabulous on you though.
Here is a log of my travels and the adventures, dramas and stories that ensue. I've just finished up two years living in Australia and am headed to South America next, although that could change at anytime thus the benefit of this blog for constant updates on my whereabouts, state of mind, and my latest ramblings.
About Me
Cast of Characters (or friends who are often mentioned in the blog)
Eric- my little brother, I’m always dragging him into some nonsense and even though he complains I know he secretly loves it!
Joey-one of my bestest friends, we grew up together in Crowley, TX, Joey now lives in San Francisco, which makes it convenient for us to cause trouble together.
Claire-I wouldn’t have survived Brisbane or my masters degree without Claire, I think sometimes we share the same brain which can be a dangerous thing. Claire is now teaching English in Japan which of course I convinced her to do and then I didn’t end up going, but she forgives me!!
Danielle- Her and her boyfriend Conor were my flatmates in Sydney, being Irish they were always up for something and we had lots of adventures together, especially when Danielle and I got a hold of lots of vodka lemonades.
Soot Face-a Dutch girl that I did my masters with, when we were in a group together and supposed to present information about a company, she suggested that we put soot on our faces and pretend the company had burned down.
Mad Mary- my British flatmate in Sydney, Mary would drink lots of wine every night and be good entertainment for the house, and of course she is a bit mad.
