the other day i left neeki out in the back yard so she can play. i was so consumed in what i was doing (yahoo pool) that it started to rain and i forgot i left her out there. by the time i remembered to bring her back to her dog house, she had a mud splash diagonally across her face, her white paws were all black, and her leash was completely drenched in mud. poor thing. she was happy as hell though.

yesterday we went out to dinner for my uncle's birthday. i sat next to my cousins AJ and Roxanne. having conversations with teenagers just crack me up. AJ was checking out some girl in the table ahead of us with a baby boy. she couldn't have been older than 17. upon admiring the baby, AJ made a comment about how lucky she was and how he wanted a baby too. OH MY GAWD! he's only a sophomore in high school! then he told me about this girl that he likes and how he's already found his soulmate. i took one look at Roxanne and we just started cracking up! what's funny is that i used to think the same way when i was his age.
