MmmBop Mama's Day Off..

Note: This is from a really long time ago...we just forgot to post it. (November 3rd 2009 to be exact.) Consider it a lost episode post if you will.

We realized one day in Consumer Education class that our life was less like a Disney Movie and more like a lifetime movie, we needed to change this. So we devised a scheme to skip school one day, don't tell anyone.

First we had to come up with of codes and code names, which Becky excelled at. Beckys name was Wabash Fiscal, Emily was Shiloh Peppin and Abby was Falcon.

Our Codes were:

The eagle has landed: Called into school
The beans have harvested: Eat
Brinner is Burnt: mission failed
We survived the projects: Mission Accomplished
Our credit history is on the line: Someoene is suspicious
Riding the ghetto cruiser: I'm on the way
Mary gets her way: They're buying it
Baby in the backseat: Emily's dad's at home
Blanket pull hatch: Becky's mom is at home
Call insurance agent ASAP: emergency!

Who's got the nomad - someone stole my left sock
The swine dine at nine oh nine! - someone's actually sick

The turtle eats its shell - the blanket is covered in orange lifesavers (what???)

Then we knew we needed walkie talkies. After calling several little boys, we found the Craigs had some, and they were camouflage, even better. We met Becky secretly that night at a disclosed location, and handed of the walkie talkies, over and out. The next morning, we ALL woke up sick...what a coincedence. After our parents called us into school, our plan unfolded. Abby and Emily snuck out to Peoria, the land of neverending happiness, where you can always see the sun, day or night. Meanwhile Becky watched prison break and ate cake all day, while avoiding taking medicine. Emily and Abby had to sneak Becky applebees, so we parked in another culd-e-sac, and took the secret route to becky's, through a forest. We had to hide behind trees, because Becky's mom was in the yard. Becky used the walkie talkie to tell us when to run and when to hunker down. She also told emily that she needed to find a new tree or lose weight, because she could see her. We finally made it up the hill after the signal on the walkie talkie. Then we watched lots of prison break all day long. What a success.

Professor Milton Bernard Abraham...Noel!

Friday the 13th was a night we will never forget, the night we became parents, the night we set off on a journey that formed the rest of out lives. We decided we weren't very rebellious kids and once again our lives were not like disney movies. The solution to this problem: Get a Hamster...a secret hamster, and so our journey begins. That day after school we drove to every Petco around in search for the perfect buddy. Rowdy helped us. Then we met a little girl who told her mom that we were her new friends. Her name was Scout. Her mom looked concerned for us. Then finally in east Peoria we found him...or her. It was a Winter White Russian Dwarf Hamster. He was fat. We asked for the fattest one she had. the lady thought we were going to eat him. then she asked if we were 18. we said "sure are" and she said she would let it slide as long as our parents didnt care. we said "of course they dont mind." Little did she know that our parents were just as clueless as her. So Professor Milton Bernard Abraham has been living in our closets for 4 months now. In that time he has developed a tumor (dont worry it went away), survived malnutrition(hes a lover and a fighter), and suffered a gender crisis. We thought it was a boy. then korey looked up hamster anatomy and found that he was a she. Koreys mom was the first to find out. he screamed when she opened the bathroom door with a vacuum cleaner running. then emily's dad was the next to find him. he threw him in a shoe and laughed. Its a wonder he didnt find out sooner seeing as we talked about him all the time in front of him. he even layed down next to him and watched tv with him and didnt even notice. we have planned his funeral . when he dies were all gonna meet out in the country and korey will bring a shovel. he is a man.

Rainy days and Mondays always get us down.

The other day we realized that during 4th hour "A" day NONE of the seniors are in class. They are all mosyin' through the hallways, just like us! We're going to plan a huge game of hide and seek. Miss Nieuwkoop is in, as long as she doesn't have to be the seeker. This will be fun. We are excited.
Also, we found Narnia. It's in the little box above the drinking fountain, between the boys and girls bathrooms, in the spare room. don't tell anyone. We are making decorations for it in Art class. We didn't tell our art substitute. She lets us do anything. One day Nick asked her if we could go to the site of our new installation piece. She said "ok"! What if it was going to be on the MOON?! We could have gone anywhere. She isn't so smart. The weather today is cloudy, 2 inches of snow and its sleeting turtles. don't trust the weatherman

Old People.

Miss Nieuwkoop has an unhealthy infactuation with the elderly. We discovered this the first day of meeting her, when she confessed that instead of a baby she rather have an old person. Her sickness has worsened when she told us that she follows old people around at Wal Mart, trying to "help them", she's like Becky's mom in thinking all Old People walking are lost. She followed an old couple the other day that were holding hands, but still had to shout to hear eachother. We asked her if she's ever heard of Nursing Homes explaining to her they were large buildings filled with Old people out the wazoo. She then told us she first fell in Love in grade school, when her teacher took her to a nusing home. Then she started brining this old woman with a mustache and a mole flowers and those weird sticky pictures for her window, and she would get so excited that she would pee her pants (the old lady not Nieuwkoop). Later, her roomate in college used to live across the street from a nursing home and she used to watch the elderly in their windows. So we asked why she didn't work at a nursing home, she sadly explained that stalking was not OK there. SO, She was at Wal Mart again following another little old lady, when the lady finally turned around and told her "She was kind of a creep", and Miss Nieuwkoop answered, "I just wanted to play with you.." We are going to Wal Mart with her next time.

She also told us that Nursing homes have the highest STD rate...
