So I decided to go look up the word "meme" (see previous post) because for some reason it struck me that perhaps that word wasn't being used quite right on lj. But I guess after reading and rereading the definitions that I found, I guess they do pretty much describe the stuff that floats around here. I'm really guilty of this "meme" issue, if nobody has been able to pick up on that. For some reason I get very high levels of amusement out of taking those quizzes. But I guess the one I have trouble understanding is the one where you post comments for people on your friends list, leaving them to sort out if they're on the list and if so, which comment is for them (thanks and much admiration to foxmagic for actually filling it out for all one hundred and fifty four people!). I've seen several people on my friend's list do it so far, and I'm so paranoid about what is being said about me. Am I the only psycho with this problem? Probably. I can pick out some things I hope are about me, but then I feel presumptuous, cos of course, they're always very positive things. What if I'm the one where they are saying "you are selfish and self-centered and you're going to start losing friends if you're not nicer to people"? Eeeeep!

By the way, I've gone through my friend's list and added everyone's Yahoo and AIM IDs to my buddy lists on Yahoo messenger and AIM.

If you want to talk to me, I'm Vlagirl1 (on both services). If you don't, well then... can't help ya =D

What a weekend, what a weekend.....


Friday night.


Ummmmmm.... yeah.

That's all that I will say.


But tonight was nice. I went to dinner for my niece's birthday with her (Brandy) and her boyfriend, my brother (her dad) and my dad. It was nice, we went to Ki's on North Avenue, in Glendale Heights, I think. She turned 22. I can't believe it. I mean, I know she's only five years younger than I am, but by now we're all adults together, so it feels a little weird. We're as different as you could imagine two people being who are blood related, but she is a wonderful person, and I'm glad hang around her these days. I have to say, I like this boyfriend much better than her last. Sean is nice to the family, and actually has table ettiquette. I think he even ordered a salad with his dinner! I'm impressed.


Who wants to go with me on Friday, July 11th to watch Brandy race in the powder puff races at the Sycamore race track? I know pheret1 will probably want to go, and I know dust_wind_dude will be there already with his buddy Kevin. So..... are we on? We gotta go cheer her on, man! It will be much fun, i can guarantee. The race starts at 8, time trials start at 7, and I think she said it is $9 to get in.

Who's with me?
