Happy New Year!
Interterm. Working out every day, rehearsal after dinner, party every night. Every day was an awesome day. Ashley and I were basically connected at the hip, because I didn't have any bedding I spend the majority of my nights with her. Elliott and I started dating at the end of January, and that surprised basically everybody. Even me. I was really happy though.
February:
Godspell went down this month, and my parents and Dave came up and they all met Elliott. Parents liked him for the most part- Dave? Not so much. But I liked him and that's all that really mattered to me. Prince performed at halftime for the superbowl and it was so amazing it gave me goosebumps. Elliott shared the love for Prince and his mom sent the Purple Rain DVD...haha...that's what I remember from February...
March:
Spring Break was good..I came home with Nicolette and Lindsay and we had a good time going shopping and hanging out and seeing Whitney and Mckinzie in Ft Worth. I missed Elliott a lot, and was happy to get back to KS to see him.
April:
It snowed in Kansas on my 19th birthday. I had big plans to have a really long exciting night- but Elliott took me out to dinner in Salina and I ate so much and got so tired that I was in bed by 10. The next night we had more of a party, but I felt old for not sticking through my actual birthday night. I went on a choir trip in April too, and Elliott missed me so much that his roommates got sick of him talking about it. That is the Elliott I fell in love with, and I was never happier.
May:
Graduation was so sad. I cried when I saw Sally in her gown and cap in the morning when the choir sang. She was beautiful. Elliott and I were a tiny bit late for the actual ceremony because he is such a woman when it comes to getting ready for stuff. We walked in right in front of the graduates and sat in the back. Sally and Amanda and Josh all graduated and it was reallllly sad. Sally and Amanda had a party afterwards and a lot of people went. I cried as I went around and had my picture taken with my faves. My dad got there and it was time for me to say bye. gahhh it was so sad. Dad, Elliott, and I went out to dinner before dad and I left. I hated saying bye to Elliott- but I knew I would see him over the summer, so it wasn't toooooo too bad.
June:
Got a job at the airport. Very lame. Went to Houston and met Elliott's family and immediately loved them all. I worked a lot...hung out with Jamie as much as possible. Mom was really sick and in and out of the hospital. It was really sad.
July:
Still working at the airport...Spend the 4th of July at Elliott's, which was really nice. It was rainy so the fireworks show was canceled...we still shot some off at a friend of his house, and they were awesome. I went back to Houston for Elliott's birthday. I went skydiving and loved it. I acquired a fake ID to ride in the stretch hummer all over Houston with him and a bunch of his friends. We convinced his mom to go too- and for the most part it was really fun. At some point over the summer I went to visit Heather in Austin. I don't remember what month that was- but I met Ernesto and Heather and I played scrabble because we are awesome. It was really fun and I was really glad to see her.
August:
Started school. Alone. Immediately fell in love with my wonderful Roommate, who I lovingly refer to as Roommate, but really her name is Laura. Went to Houston every couple weekends, but made a couple friends and had a good time in Nac. Molly had puppies, and boy were they CUTE.
September:
Really tired of SFgAy by now. Everything was so dirty, and I didn't feel safe anywhere. Elliott came to visit and we had fun. Roommate is still awesome and I am thankful for her. I become more and more unhappy with each passing day. Classes aren't too bad, but some of them are really overwhelming. I am really really missing my Kansas friends- as well as Elliott.
October:
I went to a gay Halloween party here in Dallas with my sister, Annie. We dressed up as musical bums. We had finger cymbals and drums- we took requests, and wore "Will work for.." signs. One guy thought I was hilarious and told me for Halloween I should be Bald Britney. I thought about it- then ended up doing it. I would have won the costume contest had the cops not crashed the party... I spent actual Halloween in Houston though, and we had a mini party at Elliott's house. I pwned him in scrabble- the real reason we broke up, probably.
November:
Went to Austin and partied it up with Heather. We always have a good time. It was awesome to see her and Ernesto was so generous and kind the whole time. It was really fun. I went to Houston a couple times this month too (surprise!). Thanksgiving went well with relatively no drama. The whole family was here, and it snowed. None of it stuck, but it was still lovely.
December:
I took my final trip to Houston on December 1st or so. Elliott and I got into a really big fight, which is always fun. I left on a kind of awkward/bad note- and we ended up breaking up later that week. I am still not very happy about it, but there really isn't anything I can do that I know of- so there is not much use fretting over it (even though sometimes I just can't help it). I said goodbye to Roommate this month, and I miss her every day. I also said goodbye to Cortney (another srgay friend) and I miss her in my life too. I really miss my Kansas friends, but hopefully I will go see them next month! I left SfgAy and it has been...interesting...so far, living at home again. I have spent the majority of my time with Heather, and I do not know what I will do when she leaves me and goes back to Austin. I have a couple jobs lined up that I will be starting in January.
All in all? On a scale of 1-10, this year was a 6. Not too great but not terrible. I met and fell in love with a whole other family in another city and they basically got snatched away from me. I have small hopes that I will see them again someday, and I put a lot into those small hopes. I fell in love with a wonderful man who changed his whole life, and seemingly his outlook on life when he moved home. I don't know what happened, but I guess it didn't work out- so in and out of a relationship this year...not my favorite thing. I got immensely closer to Heather, Aida and Alex- something I didn't know was possible- but I am so thankful for it. My mom and I's relationship fell apart and patched back up 100 times this year- and I wish it would stay patched. I changed my whole life a million times and still have little idea of what to do. I feel more unhealthy and more pessimistic than I ever have.
Tomorrow is a New Year, and although I would really like that to hold some significance, the truth is- it's just another day, just like yesterday, and just like today. Nothing will change until I make it change- but I am finding it more and more difficult to just be happy. Off to see Dr. Katzen this week and just talk some stuff over with him. Wish me luck.
And have a Happy New Year.

PS- Harry Connick Jr is lumpy and unattractive- in my opinion.
Lisa Kudrow plays Holly's best pal, Denise- and I don't know HOW they did it, but SOMEONE or SOMEONES obviously followed me around for MONTHS without me knowing, because every DAMN line she said was either something I HAVE said, something I say REGULARLY, or something I most definitely WOULD say in those certain situations. I cannot tell you how many times both Heather and Jess looked at me in amazement as if to say "it looks like Lisa Kudrow but if I were blind I would swear it was you.." or something..
I didn't like it because it made me sad. I liked it because of reasons unknown. I will probably never watch it again, but I am glad I did. No regrets.
....Harry Connick Jr REALLY IS LUMPY and UNATTRACTIVE, and it is amusing because I don't think Hilary Swank is much to look at either (except damn, what a nice bod). However, because both of them were- well, normal looking- it made the movie more real and more comfortable, because let's face it- in real life, not everyone looks like Jessica Alba, Jennifer Aniston, or Halle Berry (except you, Aida
Mixed review? Maybe. But give me a break. It's late.

"I can definitely see you calling me to tell me I am not invited to your wedding if I was ignoring you completely.."

Question:
Can Mandy Moore do a movie and....*gasp*...NOT sing in it?!
I am watching "Because I Said So," and I have a sneaking suspicion that she may bust out in song at any given second.
*shudder*...
aw but so far- cute movie, really.
****EDIT****
Yeah. She sang. ugh. Pretty voice, Mandy Moore! Tired of hearing it in every movie you're in. But okay.
**EDIT 2**
Still though. Cute movie.

Well...If You Must Know...
I am single-girl again. Ugh...
and I am hurt- but not mad. Neither of us see the end to the long distance, and so maybe one day we will find ourselves better suited for each other, but right now- elliott has problems that he needs to address, and I need to focus on school and my life more...it really really....really sucks. But that's life sometimes.

Ah! Cristina Asked If Laura Has A Blog....
Hmm. How to answer this question.
It is on a semi-daily basis that Laura asks me how to spell a word. The most recent one was "Lacey, how do you spell definitely?" yesterday...or maybe the day before. I will shoot out the letters faster than we can blink, and our lives will go about being awesome.
In the bulk of the school year, she would procrastinate the hell out of writing any and all papers....and she had quite a few of them. So no- Laura does not blog, although she does read mine- and laugh and recall our amazing times together.
Ask me to multiply any number by 12 or anything above it and I will tilt my head, furrow my brow, and bark at you- but Laura knows math without really thinking about it. That is why she helped me with my math homework. A lot.
"Laura who is Factor and what function does he have?!"
She does math. I do english. We're a perfect match.
*Lacey Jane*
"I look like a man."
"I look like a lesbian"
"Let's just get our food to go."
"Agreed"
-Laura and I at lunch today. Then we get into the caf:
"We're out of to go boxes." -lunch lady
*confused, dumb stare from both Laura and myself*
"So...what you're saying is....we have to eat our food....here..?" -me
so we did. we snagged a miraculously empty table- and it stayed miraculously empty because well- remember what we looked like. goodtimes with laura. i will surely miss her.

You'd Think After 19 Years, One Would Be Able To Control Such Things...
So basically- Here I am back in Nac after an eventful weekend in Houston (Elliott and I will be in town THIS weekend instead of this last weekend...obviously..). I have..
*sigh*
Why do I do this?
I have this desire to inform you all of something quite unfortunate- and unless you can pretend I am a wee baby right now, please refrain from reading for your sanity and my pride (What pride?) (oh yeah..).
..I have a diaper rash.
(Or something like it)
Laugh it up- laughsters- but the thing is- I have been getting them all semester. I go to Houston or Dallas or Austin, and the tender raw achy part... is immediately cured and happy and not sore.
I come back and after two or three pee-pee trips....there it is again.
I swear it is not some ST(D)(I), but...
Sometimes it bleeds a tiny drop of blood when I wipe.
I am not a rough wiper. I am actually quite gentle. But it's just that the damn toilet paper in the bathroom....well..it is so cheap you can't even buy it at the grocery store. I would be glad for a 42 pack of Bath Tissue for 2.99 at Sack N Save....The toilet paper you buy to decorate the trees of the less fortunate. GLAD FOR A PACK OF THAT.
But no. We get this. Or...something like it. And because of that. I need this. Or something like it.
Cherish your Charmin, folks. Adore your Angelsoft (2ply!!), Cuddle your Cottonelle closely...you make look insane for a time- but at least you do not have one of these (or something like it).
*Lacey Jane*
"Lacey- just don't wipe with the bumpier side!"
"It has another side?!"
-Roommate and I...she's smart sometimes- so maybe I will try this feeling of the toilet paper before wiping myself...apparently, there is a bumpier side that I just may be using...

19 Days Til Christmas Break
...but really, who's counting? Laura and I returned to our faithful dorm room last night- weary, but not especially tired, and willed ourselves to unpack (okay okay- Laura always unpacks...I willed myself to follow suit), before watching a tiny bit of tv, and (in her case) surfing the web on her lovely laptop (that hasn't broken for no reason) and (in my case) reading a Jane Green book that I've already read, but it's what I had...Sleep did not come easy for me...and when Elliott called at 2ish, I answered and was talking- and noticed that every time I said something, Laura responded....She was still pretty much asleep, and it was pretty hilarious. She giggled and responded to everything I said...then she woke up fully and realized that I was on the phone and she looked a bit confused..."Oh!!! I thought you were talking to me.." hahahaha.....that generally happens to me- because when she calls someone she just goes right into conversation, and I figure she's going into conversation wtih me...usually she doesn't correct me, and just laughs when I realize that I am, in fact, an idiot.
Gee I missed her.
Math and Sociology this morning were very difficult to get to, because 1- they are at the crack of dawn (8&9) and 2- I had to tread through arctic conditions to make it to class. Sweatshirts and jeans aren't cutting it, people. But I have no other choice. I suppose later when I go work out (!!!!) I will have to *shudder* bring a gym bag and change in the locker room.
I have an insane fear of someone stealing. my. stuff. because it has happened oh- a lot- and of course I do not have a lock- what do you take me for? Someone who has had their stuff stolen a lot? Weirdos.
Anyway that is all for now...I took a really ridiculously long nap, and now I have to venture into the frigid outdoors to second floor Rusk building, and see what I can do about getting the itself out of here.
*Lacey Jane*
"Shut the hell up! The movie is on! Make me a sandwich! Bring it to me!"
-Sam...the guy we rode home with. he was funny.
when i say rode home, I mean- I drove, laura rode shotgun, and he curled up in his backseat and watched one of my movies.
we were definitely a lez couple with our son.

EhhhHHhHHhHHhHhhhhHHHhhhh
Yesterday I saw Enchanted with Cristina. Really. Freakin. Awesome. Movie. I loved it. Heather told me that when she saw it, she thought about me a lot and said I would play that part really well. hahah...it was such a great movie...haha.
Anyway, xangaland...things have been uh..perplexing...these last few days. they will get better though. I am pretty confident.
....My dogs are so cute. they are fighting right now. in a playful, puppylike way. :o) So So So cute.

Have a nice night everyone...Tomorrow I head back to Nac.....ick..

I'm "Home"
I call today to get my schedule.
I am scheduled TODAY (monday), Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday.
....really? Because I have school on monday AND tuesday. I informed my boss that I said I could work Wednesday on and she said "Well that's just how it worked out babydoll." Really? Because that's really unprofessional. I am very very upset with this. I wanted to work Thanksgiving. THEY TOLD ME I COULD WORK THANKSGIVING. I did NOT want to work Tuesday- and now I have lost a day of wages because I couldn't work Monday.
dsaklfj;sdlkfj it is all very very frustrating.
Also I recently (half an hour or so) got into yet another argument with my mother about Elliott. Really great. Get me the hell out of here. I wouldn't be here if I weren't working. Sounds harsh. I am not happy with my family right now. They are great people and I truly love them. That doesn't mean I can't be mad at them right now.
6 more days of this? Please no.

Being Stupid With Roommate at 4:45 am...
At 4:45, we both wake up with a start. There is a really loud obnoxious noise blearing into our minds. I grab the remote as we both glare at our seemingly possessed television. I turn it off. The noise continues!!?? So I turn it back on and then off- trying again. At this point, we both realize that it is the fire alarm that we are hearing, and not the tv like we previously thought. We roll out of bed and head downstairs.
Barefoot.
In boxers and t shirts.
In the rain.
and it is cold.
Cold cold cold.
and our hair is still wet from our showers.
So we stand across the parking lot where we're supposed to.
In a large puddle.
Huddled close to each other trying to stay warm.
When we realize how stupid we are for 1- not putting SHOES on, and 2- thinking it was the tv that was being obnoxiously loud.
20 minutes later- we are back in our dorm, realizing just how disgusting the floors (especially the stairs) are. We grab our flip flops and head BACK to the showers because EW EW EW we have Syphilis and Herpes and gonorrhea and other STD's that haven't even been discovered yet (all retrieved through our feet..duh).
By 5:15, we're back in bed- pissed off, but STD-free!
we wake up around 1230 and laugh again at our stupidity.
I sure am going to miss her.
*Lacey Jane*
"LACEY HOLD ME I'M COLD!"*hold. shiver shiver.*
ps-
it wasn't a fire drill...someone left something on that smoked and set off the fire alarm. how very awesome.

Happy Birthday Keshia!
It is Keshia's birthday, and now everyone is 19!! Everyone here turned 19 within the last couple months. I will be 20 in April so I am the old one...that's pretty funnny.
and now a word from everyone at this little partaay...
Rickey Says:
That wearing a regular hat makes me look older but extra sexy! Woooooooooooooo!
Laura *roommate* says:
That since Thanksgiving is so close, she wants to say that she is thankful for Lacey Jane and for not dying when thrust in the path of death not too long ago! LOVE!
Nicole says:
lacey made my eyes look pretty! and i can't wait for no classes next wed!!!
Keshia (*BIRTHDAY GIRL!*) says:
wooooooo hooooooooooo i'm 19 bitch yay.. lacey is a lovely young lady!
Hooray! that is all for now! I will have a good update tomorrow...Roommate and I are looking forward to PACKING!!
but im going to miss her lots :o(

Because I adore board games, duh
29 days until Christmas break! YESS! I will just be working. A lot. Probably more than a lot, actually. I have to go to the office and inform them on my decision to NOT BE HERE next semester....which office? Registrar? Probably. I will have to find it. There are so many buildings...
Hope everyone is having a good week...off to PWN Cranium. YESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!
*Lacey Smith*
"Are you working on homework?""OH no. It is xanga. duh."

On a completely entirely different note- have y'all ever heard of Jodi Picoult? Elliotts sister, Allison, highly recommended her to me and she let me borrow 3 of her 10000 Jodi books. I read "19 Minutes" on Sunday, "The Pact" on Monday and Tuesday, and "The Tenth Circle" today. Really really good books. The first two are terribly sad and I warn you that if you have any resemblance of a soul (oxymoron? Resemblance of a soul?) you will most likely cry your eyes out.* They are all crimes that need to be solved...They are almost mystery books, but they are also really dramatic...stuff that you don't want to read about, but once you start for some reason you don't stop because you have to know the outcome (A Boy Called It, anyone?).
Allison also let me borrow a book called "Something Borrowed"...all these chickbooks are going to make me soft (hahahah because I am a hardass, duh)...but I forgot how much I like to pour myself so far into books that it makes me forget everything that is going on around me. I have to take a break from Jodi Picoult until I can borrow more books from Allison...after 3-4 days of reading strictly her novels I am noticing her favorite phrases ("shaking like a leaf" being one of them) and how funny it is that so much personality can be put into books. Had none of the books had her name on them and I read a couple other books of the same genre as these- I probably still could have picked out these three as being written by the same person. For some reason I found this interesting... I don't think I have really noticed that before with any other writer. I guess it doesn't hurt that in a couple of the books she used the same town or the same defense attorney...eh..
Anyway, thought I would throw that out to internetland.
*Lacey Jane*
"Roommates computer doesn't automatically spell check my xanga like my computer did. No wonder she can't spell."
-me. in my head. just now.
...and then I spell checked it. Other than the proper names and the words "y'all," "hardass," "chickbooks," and "internetland"- I spelled everything correctly. YES!
*this will definitely be true if you are a- a menstruating woman or b- depressed at all during the time of reading

Roommate and I watch Arthur on a routine basis. Go ahead. Laugh.
I was going to go home this weekend. But I probably won't now. I will go home for Thanksgiving break, and work as much as I can. I will come back to school and finish the couple weeks left before the semester is finally over. I have been searching for internships for next semester, but have found none that I can do, because I don't have a car. I will figure next semester out. I need about 10 more credit hours to be a junior, so even if I just take 10 hours next semester at some community college and get a job somewhere close to wherever I will be living, I won't be behind in school and maybe I can save enough money to buy a car and go to St. Thomas or some other small-school-big-city combo.
I will do my best to work hard when I am in school and save up money, and maybe I won't have to move back home again. This is all pretty unlikely- because saving up money to buy a decent car is virtually impossible. Guess we'll see what happens.

This Weekend Was Great- And Then...
Coming back to Nac, or even going home from Elliott's house is always really hard for me. I hate doing this long-distance. It is no good, people. But at the same time- I know I just have to be patient and things will work out. We don't really fight that much- it's just difficult to do this. I don't think a lot of people understand our relationship, and I think I complain a lot about it I guess- but I really shouldn't, because honestly- I am so happy when I actually get to be with him- and so sad when I have to leave
Off to mope and take a shower and throw myself the grandest of pity parties. Roommate isn't home from Dallas yet- but when she gets here- my pity party will have to turn into HER BIRTHDAY PARTY!! Because she's finally 19 TODAY and I am glad I get to see her and hug her on her Birthday So Happy Birthday Roommate!! (but not yet. because remember- i have to mope and be pathetic).
*Lacey Jane*
"Heather! Look at me!"

New Southpark nights are my fave
whew....ANYWAY- YES I did go work out today. For a long time.
And then I came back and had a bowl of cereal.
HEALTHY SMART START ANTIOXIDANT CEREAL!! And later- Roommate and I may or may not do lunges and other terrible, scary things that I will not mention.
Won't lie kids. It was cold today. Very cold. Brrr..I would tell you the temperature- but I don't have my wonderful laptop anymore. It is temporarily dead. So I guess we could say it is in a coma. But then I feel bad saying that, becuase that is like me calling someone in a coma "temporarily dead" and that just sounds awful.
Yes- I did make a reference to my laptop as being a person...because, well, to me? It so is.
HAHAHhahahahahHAHhahah oh Southpark...your hilarity distracts me so...
Roommate went to the movies tonight. I miss her so. She needs to get back soon and tell me to stop eating. And then ask for crackers. Last night we shared a shameful ritz-crackers moment.
This entry is so pointless. I can't help it...Southpark has me all entranced and stuff.
Oh but hey! Elliott says he will have a new video up on YouTube soon...He hasn't had a new one in awhile. Maybe I will link you. If I like it. And then everyone can see my boyfriend in all his wisdomosity(ish)(maybe).
Really I love you all- I just cannot multitask when something so worthwhile (Southpark) is on something so wonderful (the tv*)
*Lacey Jane*
"Lace..watch out for that bug.."*nod*-Laura and I. Today. What a pal.
*I would just like to say that during the summer I watched a collective 4 hours of television. I would even say it was less than that- but just in case I am er...rounding up. But somehow here at school I watch a LOT. MORE. TV. It is cheap, and a nice distraction from homework**.
**I have a psych paper due tomorrow that I am about halfway done with...but xanga calls...

You should be proud of me!!!!!!!!!!! And then very...very ashamed
Today was uneventful. Classes and lunch with roommate and walk with roommate and such. It is always amusing walking with her. It is almost like walking with Aja, but Roommate is just a TAD bit shorter, and for some reason, that tad bit seems like sooo much of a difference. I feel like an amazon woman named GRAUGG, stomping along with my midget pal, Skippy*. But it's amusing and fun.
Oh- and today, we were on our way to dinner. Me on the right and her on the left. DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ME we spot a HUGE TERRIFYING BUG (I think it was a grasshopper?). It wanted to pounce on me and tear off my face with its razor-sharp claws..
In a fit of insane FEAR- I GRAB Roommate (or...Skippy*..) and attempt to THROW HER into the PATH OF TEH MON5TORR!!! Surprisingly, with strength I didn't know she possessed, she stood her ground, and I snapped out of it. Then we laughed. A lot. And she was offended, and I was sorry, but it really was funny. She even saw it first, and pointed it out in order to save me from stepping on it, or just to keep me aware that it was there. How do I thank her? I try to kill her. This place does wacky things to my brain.
Oh man.
Is it really only Tuesday?

-Roommate/Laura/Skippy
sorry roomie...
*Roomate isn't, nor will she ever be (uness under the influence of alcohol or under the impression that she may soon get Jack In The Box) Skippy. But it sounded like a shortish name.

Still don't have my computer....
Watching "My Best Friends' Wedding"
Such an awesome/sick movie.
Also um- My boyfriend has a cell phone. He hasn't had one since August. What's better? He knows how to USE it. Which is really really awesome. He called me yesterday. Three times. It was strange. I was not used to hearing his voice that often. Pretty cool.
I really have nothing to say. Roommate and I were terrible today and went to Jack in the Box. Sick. And delicious. And I napped for 3 hours. But because roommate can't go work out with me right now- I will probably (definitely) just go to bed, unless I feel disgusting in the next couple hours and just go work out anyway (optional-but not likely).
still figuring out my life. But one thing I did think about today- the world 25-30 years ago? Different than it is today. In lots of ways. Whodathunkit?

Bald Britney
Are there really words to describe how awesome it was?
*yes...there are...duh*
Last night had its bad point (really do I ask for too much when I request one phone call a day? I obviously do)
Other than that- It was so fun.
I began getting ready around 7. I crafted a censor sign using felt and paint and left it in front of the fan to dry quickly. I took a shower, avoiding getting my hair too wet, and then I was really to begin the balding process.
Step by step pictures to come later when I have my laptop back.
Becoming Bald-Britney in 10 Easy(ish) Steps:::::
Step 1: Realize I have no bobby pins and go down the hall asking for contributions to the Bald Britney Bobby Pin Fund. Return to my room with 6 bobby pins. Using gel, a pink headband, and said bobby pins- successfully arrange my hair to ensure as few bumps as possible.
Step 2: Using copius amounts of spirit gum (really nasty but efficient stuff) on my neck and forehead, apply bald cap. Freak out for a couple seconds because ewwww...I'm bald!!...Realize you can see the pink headband through the very light-tan cap, and hope the make-up with cover it.
Step 3: Sit on Roommates computer while she paints my bald cap using some old Loreal base make-up that is now too light for me, and my base-brush.
Step 4: Stand in front of fan, bent over, feeling rather...falic.
Step 5: Sit on Roommates computer while she dusts my head with powder. Repeat step 3. Repeat step 4
Step 6: Repeat the first sentence of step 5
Step 7: Marvel at how weird it is.
Step 8: Apply the too-light makeup all over face, neck and ears. Take pictures because I REALLY LOOK BALD AT THIS POINT.
Step 9: Apply rest of make-up and don the Britney dress.
Step 10: Safety pin the censor sign to the proper place over some nude colored underwear. Create make-shift baby out of a balloon and a pillowcase. Put on 4 inch heels that are a size and a half too small, and VIOLA!
By 9:45 I, Britney Spears, was ready for a night out to flash my nether-reigions and let my kid drive (He was DD- go figure)
*Lacey Jane*"Lacey???""It's Britney, bitch.."
(check back tomorrow to hear about the costume contest! And how I got around that night without owning a car or having many friends)

Monday, November 06, 2006
oh..right...xanga...so...i have mono. im fatigued and whatever. thats just my life. also im behind in classes because i missed three days of school. once again- my life. GUESS WHAT XANGALAND?!?!?!*imagines everyone guessing* Oh! oh I heard someone say it...who said it?? ...someone in the back...Yeaaaaahhhpp.I am having what is commonly referred to as a RELAPSE. I would like to refer to it as just...MY LIFE. It is really no fun. It may sound like fun- the whole...sleeping 12-15 hours a day thing- but IT'S NOT, LET ME ASSURE YOU. It is VERY difficult to make it to my 8 and 9am classes, although my 2pm shouldn't be bad, UNLESS I HAVE THE OVERWHELMING URGE TO SLEEP!Do you know how to get over mono? Take a couple aspirin and Rip Van Winkle your life away.Because antibiotics don't help. GOODNIGHT XANGA-XANGALAAAANNNDD!!!! *blows out candle with a raspberry**Lacey Jane*"I hope someone notices my reference to "Hook" in the last line I wrote"-Me. Just now. In my head.**EDIT** A Letter To My Professors::Good Afternoon, I am writing this e-mail to explain my frequent absences of last week and this week. I apologize for any inconvenience they have caused, and I want to assure you that I am doing and will be doing my very best to stay caught up. Last year I came down with a very bad case of Mono. I got it from over-exerting myself, but once you get it, you never get rid of it. It seems I am having a relapse. I sleep for 13-17 hours a day, and have a fever that I struggle to keep under control. I have a sore throat and a headache, and it is very difficult for me to get to class. Antibiotics do nothing for Mono, and the only thing I can do is continue to drink plenty of fluids and sleep as much as my body needs. It is very awful but I ask you to please understand that I WILL go to class if I can. I am not one to miss class for a bad reason. I am just a really unhealthy individual. When I had mono last year, my doctor encouraged me to drop out of school for the remainder of the semester, because all my organs were enlarged, and I was in danger. I didn't drop out then, and I won't drop out now. I just wanted to explain a little of what's going on with me, and I will see you in class ASAP. Thank You, Lacey Smith I'm such a good student.
