Alrighty, welcome fellow friends and family to another great edition of Breakfast at Emily's!
On tonight's show: My weekend escapades! YAY! (I am sorry if I seem very animated...it is actually the total opposite of how I actually feel right now...I just find it funny that I can make it seem that I am more alive since I am typing and not actually talking.....)
Let us begin at the beginning (according to a very fabulous source, that is a very good place to start)....
Friday evening. Lindsey came and picked me up. We got all dressed up and went to Taco Bell. Actually we got all dressed up for the theatre but made a quick stop at taco Bell for dinner. Then we were off the the theatre....or at least we tried to get there....The theatre is located on Monroe street. So there we are in downtown Phoenix in the midst of all the president streets (Washington, Van Buren, Jefferson, etc....By the way, Van Buren got a main intersection and Washington only got a side street.....that is because Van Buren is where all the prostitutes go and Washington I guess was too good of a president to have a prostitute street...I would have been honored...JK) anyway, Monroe was this little itsy bitsy street with an even tinier sign.....so we drove right past it, once we started getting streets that were no longer presidents we kind of figured we had to go back. I noticed the street as we were passing it so we had to make our second u-turn to get back to Monroe again. On Monroe, I turned to Lindsey, "Do you know what the theatre looks like?" and she replied, "No, I don't." We drove a bit more and came across this huge building that said on the side of it, "Herberger Theatre Center" or something....."Look Lindsey I found it!" was my smart ass remark. As we were walking up to the theatre, they have this naked statues (which was strange), and I was about to walk up to them when I noticed one of them was not a statue but was instead a lady singing opera ballads (she was still there when we left the theatre too...I wonder if it is a good business for her)....The show, now that I wasted time with the unimportant "you-had-to-be-there-funny" stuff, was AMAZING. I love this play. I am going to buy it and use monologues from it for the rest of my life! It was just so intense and well written and the woman who played the main character was so good. I thought going into it I was not going to be able to enjoy her performance because i am biased (Meryl Streep will be playing that role on the big screen on Dec. 12) but she was so good! I am so excited for the movie now!
Then we went back to Lindsey house, after first trying to get smoothies but failing miserably when we saw the place was closed. We had an interesting phone conversation with Kristen, I was nursing a sore tail bone, and Lindsey was throwing things on the ceiling fan....(You know what I am referring to Lindsey)...
Saturday:
Lindsey and I woke up fairly early to go to Gold Canyon to visit Blair and the babies, which are growing so fast you almost can't call them babies anymore! I love those children so much! I miss them already and I saw them yesterday! We stayed a little while and then we were off to the Sanchez house so I could do my little sister, Jessica's hair for her homecoming! I, personally, think she looked really fabulous! She looked so grown up though, my little sister is growing up! :( She had a great time and I was so excited for her! I love you sis!
I went to Allison's house after that and my other little sister, Nicole, also looked all grown up and pretty! Allison and I watched Johnny English (Love Rowan Atkinson...so funny) and started, finally, to make our dolls. I ended up with skin (we are making them out of t-shirts, and they take forever to sew, by the end of the evening I had "skin" because I had finished sewing but had yet to stuff it. Also, Baja Fresh went out of business, which really freaking sucks!
Sunday morning, I stuffed my doll, almost all the way. Allison has to finish stuffing when she closes me up. And then, someday, we will finally finish them. We went to church. Went to youth group. Then Allison and her dad dropped me off at the dorm (around 3). I went on the computer checked my email, realized that when I sent my teacher my monologue to help me cut it some more I didn't send the monologue attached....so I will hopefully get her suggestions by tomorrow so I have time to work on it before Tuesday morning.
I started playing Bingo online but realized I was falling asleep, so I took a nap at 4. I set my alarm for 5:30, when it went off I turned it off and told myself, "Why are you waking up? If you are tired sleep, you have no where you need to be..." So I did just that, and woke up again at 7:15 ish (I don't remember exactly when I woke up but it was sometime after 7). That was a really nice nap, I needed it. Now it is 10:30 and I am feeling drowsy still so I will be able to sleep more! Dad was telling me he took a nap and now won't be able to sleep tonight...but I am different and can sleep all the time!
I wanted to go to my mailbox because I have a movie there for me but I will go after bio and watch it tomorrow afternoon before rehearsal.
Tomorrow I have English, and Bio-lecture. Fun stuff let me tell you!
I also plan on going, after english, to get a big breakfast because I am kind of hungry now (but not too badly) and I am too tired to make something and eat it....so I am looking forward to breakfast!!!!
I really wrote a lot, what else is new, and am getting tired again. So, I will go. Hope everyone is doing just fine and I will write again tomorrow....
YAY, Kristen just figured out how to post on my blog using her AIM account....I have been on the phone with her, but not talking to (because I cannot multi-task) the entire time I have been writing this. SO, I do not have a winner of the last mad-lib yet, because no one posted and Kristen just did. So, no mad-lib on this post....sorry!
Bon Appetit!

Em, you know that one picture of me "smacking that" on a statue? I was at the Herberger Theate and I was smacking the butt of one of the naked statues there. LOL
I had fun with you this weekend. :) I like us and our chillness with each other. Hope to see you in a couple weeks. I love you. <3
GET SKYPE! DO IT NOW!!
Aw. It was nice hearing about your weekend Em. Not everything you say is boring. :) I'm sad I wasn't there with you to enjoy it but I'm sure our month of reunion in December will be all the better because of my prolonged absence.
Yeah yeah, blame the sign for being too small. You don't have to cover up for Lindsey's directional mistake but that was nice of you to try.
Call me sometime soon Em! I love talking to you.
