funniest/worst christmas present ever (to copy shannon's title)

everyone has a funny story of getting a hideous gift from a grandma or great aunt.

but mine was from my mother. who gave birth to me and knows my taste.

so why on earth would she get me pink pajamas covered with monkeys and bananas?

it's a mystery.

also a mystery is why she would get shannon black, pink, green, and blue Tinkerbell pajamas covered with tacky stars.

i think its because she forgot that we are not in 4th grade anymore.

i was planning on pretending like they were cute, and then breaking the news to dear Mama Leith later, but Shan just lifted hers up, speechless, and then burst out laughing/crying, so I went along with her.

but she had good, honest intentions...so...it's the thought that counts?

here is what they looked like (after the precious bree pictures)

invisible children

most of you have probably heard of the invisible children of africa...
they walk miles and miles to a hospital to sleep at night so they won't be abducted and forced to be child soldiers and kill innocent people.
most are brutally tortured and murdered.
and for a long time, no one even noticed.

but things are changing...
and you can help.


tomorrow

december 14th
7:00
The Vault
come to a Sun From Shadow (and other less important bands) benefit concert!
pay just $10 that will all go directly to the children
and support the millions of invisible children in africa.

BE THERE OR BE LAME!

questions/comments/statements i cannot stand.

i hear these all about 6 times a day (each.)

"what happened to your arm?"
(it's my finger.)
"oh....wait. then why do you have a sling?"
(to keep it elevated.)
"ohhhh. that makes sense."
(yeah, it does.)

"hey, why are you flipping me off?"
(hah. hah. hah.)

"heather, put that finger down!"
(oh, you're so original!)

"is your finger better?"
(well, i don't have x-ray vision, so i can't really tell if my bone is growing back together.)

MY HEADER

IS AGGRIVATING ME.
BECAUSE IT WILL NOT COOPERATE.
AAAHHHH.

Friday, December 7

oh, firsts

i have had a lot of firsts in my fourteen years of thriving...
hoooowever, i can only think of one...
my first broken bone.
my finger!
it happened during water polo.
when my finger hit the goal during an intense block.
but my arm is in an inconvenient sling...
so i am crippled
for 6-8 weeks.
which means no water polo.
but after christmas break
i will attempt to get in the water.
BUT
i will soon be ambidextrous,
for it is my left hand that i injured
so i am forced to scrawl with my right hand.
THE
END.

ohhh, alex.

this is the alex quoted a couple of posts ago...he is an absolute crackup.


"linguistics...possibly even a new language, i'm not really sure..."
and this is him conducting a religious survey...


plus, listen to this scream...

thank you lord for coyotes.

{i babysat last night}
[the kids and i were saying our prayers before bedtime]
{we were saying thank you for mommy, daddy, our dog, etc.}
[little carson interjects:]
{thank you for coyotes.}
[the proceeded to ask if angels could go in water]
{after he had stealthily stuffed 10 cookies into his pocket}
[while i wasn't looking]
{he is only two.}

STAR STRUCK!

Walking out of the LAX airport.
Passing by Security.
What do I behold?
Amy Roloff.
The mom.
From Little People, Big World.
I was truuuuuly star-struck.
I couldn't talk to her though.
1. She was going through security.
2. It would be obnoxious if I yelled "AMYYYY!" across the quiet airport.
But
nonetheless
I was super excited.
Though I'd share.

Two Great Quotes from the Past Two Days

{on the show kid nation}


"do you think I should trust you with my atlas and my Navajo-English dictionary?"

-alex, the one-toothed asian wonder


{at the tournament}

hannah mullins (about the other team): they're so big!
heather leith: just because they're fatter than us doesn't mean they're better than us.
