When I got home from work and picking the kids up and pulled up in the driveway… it was hard to not notice that our neighbor across the street (who is a Vice Principal at a local HS here) was hosting marching band practice at his house… in his driveway… for two hours!!!  Are you serious with that shit?  Don’t you have a place for that, oh I don’t know, AT THE SCHOOL?

I took the test and scored a 130.  Now you do it.  Go to IQtest dot Com, and take the test.  Don’t cheat!!!  You have to answer all the questions without using a pen and paper, or a calculator or looking anything up online.  Tell me what you score! 

Here is the breakdown of scoring and percentages of the population that fall into those scoring ranges:

Genius: 144 0.13%
Gifted: 130-144 2.14%
Above Average: 115-129 13.59%
Higher Average:  100-114 34.13%
Lower Average: 85-99 34.13%
Below Average: 70-84 13.59%
Borderline Low:  55-69 2.14%
Low:  <55 0.13%

This is a video of my sister (the one and only pro-soccer playing one) down in Florida, singing a song by The Weepies called “Somebody Loved.”  She just texted me and told me the video was up on YouTube, and also said “It doesn’t sound great, I sound better in person.” to which I replied “It sounds GOOD!!! I’m totally blogging it!” HAHA!  I love that girl!!! Anyways, here you go:

I need to ask her if that was her sweet-ass feather boa on the other microphone stand! HA.

Here are the lyrics to the song:

Rain turns the sand into mud
Wind turns the trees into bone
Stars turning high up above
You turn me into somebody loved

Nights when the heat had gone out
We danced together alone
Cold turned our breath into clouds
We never said what we were dreaming of
But you turned me into somebody loved

Someday when we’re old and worn
Like two softened shoes
I will wonder on how I was born
The night I first ran away from you

Now my feet turn the corner back home
Sun turns the evening to rose
Stars turning high up above
You turn me into somebody loved

...just sayin.  They do.  I don’t need to go into any details or long drawn out explanations for why I feel like that, I just do.  Every time that I start feeling great and get my hopes up that people are great, I end up disappointed and lose my faith.  I wish that I did not put so much into people, I really wish I didn’t.  I have high standards for the people in my life and when they don’t live up to those standards, it sucks, and it effects me big time and in every aspect.  I wish I was not such an emotional person that takes everything to heart, that I could just let shit roll and move on - but that’s not me - I take everything to heart.  When I let you into my life, I give you 110% every chance I get and when I do not get that in return, I feel jilted.  I deserve 110% - period, just like you did when I gave it to you.  That’s it… it’s simple.  Do what you say you are going to do, be the person that I thought you were - ALWAYS.  If you have no idea what I am talking about, then you can assume I am not talking about you and that I am just venting.  Sometimes I just need to vent.

Okay I am done - changing subjects…

Today it was cold enough that I needed to cover my toes and wear boots.  My toes have been sad all day and my feet are having a rough time adjusting.  I cannot wait to get home and put on some flip flops!  That is the photo that I used today for my 365 photo project on Flickr, exciting stuff, huh?
