the smart sachs animals
So the funniest thing just went down in the sachs house. Earlier, brad and fran were in his room doing his homework and then realized his phone, which was on the ground, had gone missing. They looked around but couldn’t find it and thought that ranger had possibly stolen it. But really guys, what kind of dog steals a cell phone? The really smart and conniving kind? Yes aka my dog ranger. So we are all (minus sleeping beauty brad) sitting in the kitchen cause the rest of my fam just got back from the flyers game, and brian says “well this explains a lot” and pulled brads phone our of Gretzkys water bowl. i cracked up. And then we were talking about which one did it, and my dad like well its in gretzkys bowl… and brian goes, “yeah, but what if ranger put it in there because he’s trying to frame gretzky!” and we all just died. Funniest thing. Poor brad is asleep and missed this though. you had to be here.

yeah, i'm this bored
Dear Followers,
I want first to take the opportunity to make a shout out. Dear Quail, I would like my sleeping bag back. I have not asked in person yet, or online, because I haven't spoken to you. Why? not sure, but It wasn't funny as funny as you tried to make it, but yes it was funny. and we werent really friends in the first place soooo overall an awk situation. prom date 2008 scenario? yes.
talk to you soon! or not.
Quote of the week comes from environmental science class. Let me just tell you a little bit about this kid, he is a gfs lifer. He is completely underrated, and he is hilarious. But he doesnt mean to be, I think he's serious. So in environmental science we have been discussing how humans use the earth. One day while discussing mining, the town that will burn for centuries came up. This town sits atop a PA coal vein which was accidentally set on fire 50 years ago and is still burning.
Lifer boy: So when will it get here?
Ian: what?
Lifer boy: The underground fire
Ian: It won't because there is no way for it to travel to us underground.
Lifer boy: (short pause) ...what about the subway?
(Class laughter)
Ian: *sigh* it needs coal to get here, something to fuel the fire.
Lifer boy: so it wont get here...
Ian: no.
could not make that up, he was dead serious.
Anyway, allow me to quickly talk about what's been going on in the world....
Returned: Juniors, and with them wall ball, obnoxious voices, and over-all ugliness.
quenched: S-S romance, my bad...
current: thing between GFS star athletes (i like)
not acceptable: hooking up with 6ish people in a weekend...
lock it up seniors? Oh, i guess I cant say that.
snow days are good because you get a day off from school. snow days are bad because your family gets the snow day too and you are stuck inside with them all day long. they bother you, ask what youre watching, why youre talking to, what are you doing, what do you want to do. it drives me insane.
love,
setsy
Back??

Week Summary
Friday, October 2, 2009
rules of life
1. I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option.
2. More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I can think about is that I can't wait for them to finish so that I can tell my own story that's not only better, but also more directly involves me.
3. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.
4. I don't understand the purpose of the line, "I don't need to drink to have fun." Great, no one does. But why start a fire with flint and sticks when they've invented the lighter?
5. Have you ever been walking down the street and realized that you're going in the complete opposite direction of where you are supposed to be going? But instead of just turning a 180 and walking back in the direction from which you came, you have to first do something like check your watch or phone or make a grand arm gesture and mutter to yourself to ensure that no one in the surrounding area thinks you're crazy by randomly switching directions on the sidewalk.
6. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.
7. The letters T and G are very close to each other on a keyboard. This recently became all too apparent to me and consequently I will never be ending a work email with the phrase "Regards" again.
9. There is a great need for sarcasm font.
11. I think everyone has a movie that they love so much, it actually becomes stressful to watch it with other people. I'll end up wasting 90 minutes shiftily glancing around to confirm that everyone's laughing at the right parts, then making sure I laugh just a little bit harder (and a millisecond earlier) to prove that I'm still the only one who really, really gets it.
13. I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in.
14. I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.
15. The only time I look forward to a red light is when I'm trying to finish a text.
16. A recent study has shown that playing beer pong contributes to the spread of mono and the flu. Yeah, if you suck at it
17. Was learning cursive really necessary?
18. Lol has gone from meaning, "laugh out loud" to "I have nothing else to say".
19. I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger
20. Answering the same letter three times or more in a row on a Scantron test is absolutely petrifying.
21. My brother's Municipal League baseball team is named the Stepdads. Seeing as none of the guys on the team are actual stepdads, I inquired about the name. He explained, "Cuz we beat you, and you hate us."
22. Whenever someone says "I'm not book smart, but I'm street smart", all I hear is "I'm not real smart, but I'm imaginary smart".
23. How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear what they said?
24. Every time I have to spell a word over the phone using 'as in' examples, I will undoubtedly draw a blank and sound like a complete idiot. Today I had to spell my boss's last name to an attorney and said "Yes that's G as in...(10 second lapse)..ummm...Goonies"
25. What would happen if I hired two private investigators to follow each other?
26. While driving yesterday I saw a banana peel in the road and instinctively swerved to avoid it...thanks Mario Kart.
27. MapQuest really needs to start their directions on #5. Pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.
28. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.
29. I find it hard to believe there are actually people who get in the shower first and THEN turn on the water.
30. Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.
31. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.
32. Bad decisions make good stories
33. Whenever I'm Facebook stalking someone and I find out that their profile is public I feel like a kid on Christmas morning who just got the Red Ryder BB gun that I always wanted. 546 pictures? Don't mind if I do!
34. Is it just me or do high school girls get sluttier & sluttier every year?
35. If Carmen San Diego and Waldo ever got together, their offspring would probably just be completely invisible.
36. Why is it that during an ice-breaker, when the whole room has to go around and say their name and where they are from, I get so incredibly nervous? Like I know my name, I know where I'm from, this shouldn't be a problem...
37. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you've made up your mind that you just aren't doing anything productive for the rest of the day.
39. There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.
40. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten page research paper that I swear I did not make any changes to
41. "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this ever.
43. I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Damnit!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voicemail. What'd you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away?
44. I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.
45. When I meet a new girl, I'm terrified of mentioning something she hasn't already told me but that I have learned from some light internet stalking.
46. I like all of the music in my iTunes, except when it's on shuffle, then I like about one in every fifteen songs in my iTunes.
47. Why is a school zone 20 mph? That seems like the optimal cruising speed for pedophiles...
48. As a driver I hate pedestrians, and as a pedestrian I hate drivers, but no matter what the mode of transportation, I always hate cyclists.
49. Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.
50. It should probably be called Unplanned Parenthood.
51. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.
52. I think that if, years down the road when I'm trying to have a kid, I find out that I'm sterile, most of my disappointment will stem from the fact that I was not aware of my condition in college.
53. Even if I knew your social security number, I wouldn't know what do to with it.
54. Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey - but I'd bet my ass everyone can find and push the Snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time every time...
55. My 4-year old son asked me in the car the other day "Dad what would happen if you ran over a ninja?" How the hell do I respond to that.
56. It really pisses me off when I want to read a story on CNN.com and the link takes me to a video instead of text.
57. I wonder if cops ever get pissed off at the fact that everyone they drive behind obeys the speed limit.
58. I think the freezer deserves a light as well.
59. I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lites than Kay.
60. The other night I ordered takeout and when I looked in the bag I saw they had included four sets of plastic silverware. In other words, someone at the restaurant packed my order, took a second to think about it, and then estimated that there must be at least four people eating to require such a large amount of food. Too bad I was eating by myself.
