My fish is attacking the plant in the aquarium.

Hi Everybody! I am proving to be super unreliable. I think we can rely on that fact, at least. I got to spend time with Amanda thursday during the day and went to dinner with her, Michael, Dina and my Dad (Indian foooood. soooo gooooood). Yesterday I spent more time with Amanda and Michael and we went and saw the worst and most emo bullshit I've ever had the misfortune to hear. But at least we were out of the house, and my coat didn't get stolen this time so I'm okay with that. Anyway, like usual I'm going to write responses to multiple prompts :3 (the title has nothing to do with this post but I looked up and that's what Phineas was doing and I decided that would be my title)

Day 34: Your favorite quote

This would have been an incredibly short post. My favorite quote is "Semper Gumby, Megan" which is something my dad always tells me when things are rough or I'm overwhelmed or have to make big decisions. For those of you who are unfamiliar with latin, Semper means "forever" or "always". If you don't know who Gumby is....



This is Gumby. He is a children's toy that is super bendy and flexible. SO, put those two words together and you get... Always Flexible. Be pragmatic and willing to negotiate/compromise. There you have it folks, my favorite quote. <3

Day 35: A letter to an ex

Dear ex,
I don't really like using that term, since it makes it sound like you're anonymous, like "Mister. X" instead of "ex-boyfriend"... I will start over.

Dear Previous Boyfriend,
I'm sorry I slammed your fingers in the door after we watched Spice World. I honestly didn't see your fingers in the hinges...that was kind of stupid of you. Thank you for introducing me to peanut butter and honey sammiches, they are still one of my favorite things to eat for breakfast. Whenever I hear that backstreet boys song I think of you, and us holding hands while we skated around the roller rink. I wish that I had known my mom definitely knew I liked you, it would have saved me a lot of trouble. I'm also sorry that Dina and I forced you into a hero position when we would play on the jungle gym and that we would compete for you to save us. I shudder to think I needed someone to save me from woodchip lava, because I could have just made myself invincible instead of being a damsel in distress. Clearly you were distressed by all the pressure that we put on you. I'm also sorry for breaking up with you, although you were okay with that. I didn't know you liked boys until high school, although I think even then you had some kind of knowledge of it. Thanks for getting the "accidentally date a gay man" thing out of the way for me when we were in 4th grade, you probably saved me some grief. It's too bad that we didn't manage to stay friends, but you seem to be living a really awesome and fun life :) I'm happy that you were my 4th grade boyfriend, playground rescuer and fellow spice girl enthusiast
<3 Hugs and Kisses (but really all we did was hold hands)
Your 4th grade girlfriend

So there you have it folks, a letter to an ex. I don't know what people would expect, like some kind of hate-filled rant about why a relationship ended, or goopy "i'm sorry I hurt you" stuff. Maybe you guys expected me to do something silly, since I definitely don't want to share all the dirty details of my heartbreaking campaign towards world domination (you're next, Rupert Friend)
:3 <3 til tomorrow,
MeggyB
