"I was a good fisherman!"

So my best friend and I got yo yos for Easter. They were BRAINS. They were awesome. Mine sleeps longer than his does. Which comes in handy for my SICK TRICKS. I only have one...FOR NOW. Anyway, my sister Sally seemed like she didn't even know what the hell she was doing at first, we were actually convinced that she didn't know how to simply throw it down and bring it back up. Then she just randomly busts this out.


Anyway. Let me talk about my Dad.
So, I was a little late for work the other day per usual, and I'm on my way out of the house when my dad was coming in from shopping. Now, my dad doesn't usually go out in public. He goes to work and he comes home. It's funny seeing my dad shopping at Christmas time because he just doesn't know what to do in malls. He just always seems so lost, and he asks questions like "what's THAT store?" and I'm like "dad, that's Best Buy."

But anyway, I guess he went to Dick's Sporting Goods and then he went to Walmart. Picturing my dad in a Walmart is probably the funniest thing I could ever picture. I can just picture him wandering around picking out and looking at random things. So imagine me, my mom, and my sisters reaction when he says "hey guys look what I bought!" and pulls out a Train CD. I wasn't there in the store with him, but I can only guess at what he was thinking when he was lost in the music section and unfortunately stumbled upon a Train CD. It was probably something like this, "Train...Train...where have I heard that name before? I think they sing that song 'Soul Sister'. I like that song. I only like it because everybody else does. I wonder what they have for food in this place?" And he wanders off. I'm not making fun of him, I just don't really know anyone who goes out shopping for an afternoon and comes back with a Train CD and a basketball.

Lucy was telling me that when they were leaving for work the other morning, my dad picked up a dead mouse that one of our cats got with his bare hands. Lucy, like any normal human being, offered hand sanitizer to him, and of course his reply was "what's that?"

Yesterday was Easter and for some odd reason, it's a tradition in our family to have Chinese Food. Nobody really knows why, and if you ask me, it's kind of random. So yesterday, for reasons unknown, Schroeder and I were elected to go and pick it up. Our entire driveway was a fustercluck, and a bunch of cars were blocked in. So Lucy says, "Take my car if you want!" which doesn't really make any sense, because who on earth would want Schroeder driving their car?

So we did and since Lucy's car is boss, we had the radio thumpin and bumpin on the ride home, and we happened to be rocking out to Katy Perry's "Firework" when we pulled into our neighborhood. Of course I had to turn it down because, you know, can't be ruining reputations.

Other than that, all there is left to say is that I think doctor's appointments are weird. Anything involving a woman touching my boobs while having a full on conversation with me is just plain awkward. Although if she wasn't talking, that might be even weirder.
