ah! forget anything i ever said i wanted! i have come across the absolute coolest, most perfect thing for you to get me for christmas (my birhtday is in february if you need more time).if you don't know already, it's time you knew i have a box full of cheap-ass action figures in my car. they go everywhere with me. i love my action figures. i'm addicted to them. i buy them dirt cheap all the time... once the weather gets nice again you might even spot me lurking near garage sales... though used action figures are bound to be kinda gross...
anyhoo... i will own one of those someday...
(that link represents yet another tidbit snatched from elise... if she wasn't so damn cool, maybe i wouldn't find myself doing that so often!)
i am SO almost in florida... i can taste it! hopefully i'll be embarking tuesday afternoon... if The Mike gets his butt in gear and is able to finish his nerdy little programming project in time.
why don't you send The Mike some encouraging e-mail telling him to hurry up and finish already. hehehehe.

i have a 6' one eyed snowman in my front yard... do you?
it occurs to me i haven't been 'writing' much here lately. i haven't been putting myself into words like i used to... i haven't really been being true to myself or to any of you.
i think i started getting that notsoanonymous feeling. not that i am anonymous here... i mean, it is directly linked from stephanie.sweitzer.com... but still, i know most of you don't really know who i am or anything about me... so i am usually uninhibited in my posting.
anyway, sometimes this page is a great communication tool. sometimes i have things to say to people that i have a hard time saying. i can say them here knowing that the intended person/people will see it.
i think lately i have found myself in the opposite situation though. i feel like i have been holding back because i know who will be reading what i have to say. i don't want to feel like i have to censor myself here. this is my therapy at the end of the day. i feel all stifled and like i'm keeping secrets from myself. i have things i want to say to most of you whether some of you take offense or not...
i greatly value the feelings of other people, but i value integrity too... what is more important? saying what i have to say and being true to myself... or protecting the feelings of innocent people? that is a really hard question for me.
blah blah blah
check out the very last blurb... starts about halfway down the page:
"the fans with a plan"
go izzone... go izzone...

over a month later and still i have to move to canada... *sigh*the sad thing about the end of the election debacle is no more of letterman's "classic clinton jokes".

i'm reading breakfast of champions right now (snatched right off mike's dresser). i don't quite know how i feel about kurt vonnegut. i think i might just be a little too idealistic or naive or something... but i can't quite stand him. regardless, i found this pretty quotable (snatched right off elise's dresser):
"be careful what you pretend to be because you are what you pretend to be." -kurt vonnegut
to my bedroom wall... and beyond! (i wish)
really it doesn't get better than your tongue sticking it's tongue out at you...

so, it literally hasn't stopped snowing for about 24 hours here in michigan. now i know it has been snowing all over the midwest... but let me reiterate: LAKE EFFECT SNOW. you have no idea what we're dealing with...blizzard conditions and nippy windchill. reports have us between 12 and 16 inches of snow... drifts up to 4.5 feet already. and no signs of stopping.
the real trippy thing is looking out the window here to see the huge snowflakes swishing past the window with a backdrop of lightning and an accompaning soundtrack of thunder. too weird.
oh, look! it's me... only someone else.
you can tell it's not me though because the page doesn't open in netscape and this person isn't afraid to say what's really on her mind. i guess unlike me she figures maybe someone cares. or maybe unlike me it doesn't bother her if no one does...
this link is for brian.
ok, skinny panda is the most amusing thing i have seen in... awhile. i swear i went through almost all of the archives and was just way entertained by all of it... and that panda is too freakin cute...

ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll.ahem.
speaking of random skills and knowledge...
if there is one thing i have learned from being in a sorority it is this:
no matter how well i get along/don't get along with you... no matter how many drinks i have had... when 2am rolls around i still have what it takes to practically carry you home, strip you out of your stinky bar clothes and find your pajamas, hold your hair back while you vomit, force feed you 2 glasses of water and as many advil, put you to bed and be on my merry way as if nothing unusual happened.
you should all be so lucky as to have friends like me.
ok, i've heard drunken blogging is a bad idea, but since i am a bad typer and a bad speller even in my most sober moments... what do i have to lose, eh?
i am pumped about msu's win, but who couldn't beat loyola these days? what i am really pumped about is iowa's win over iowa state.... why do i care so much? who knows... let's chalk it up to brainwashing....
regardless... iowa is going to have to suck it up and accept the fact that they are going to be a top 25 team next week... (who needs dickie v. when you have my predictions...)
-----------------------------------------------------------
now with another glance at today's upset-filled results, i am also pumped to notice this tastey morsel. not only does msu currently own the nations longest winning streak, they also own the nations longest active at-home winning streak (which would be 34 games if i'm not mistaken...). i have been long awaiting that news. woohoo! bring on kentucky!
and who was the only big ten team to be defeated on saturday? you got it... those skanky wolverines... hahahahahah...
it has to be a very sad and lonely feeling knowing you are ranked 11th in the big ten....

it's about time i get off my butt and party like the rockstar we all know i am... i have been slacking in my sorority-girl-esque responsibilities... but no longer. i think i'll do a 'fake glasses' test...

"I've also decided that the hamster that runs in my brain runs normally at hyper-drive. When it comes to talking to girls, though, the hamster slows to a pace of a safari truck in a forest." -brianfurther proof bri and i will not get together (attn: mike and nathan). clearly he has no problem talking to me.

this is me all in awe of my new ip address... mike is a badass.i haven't decided which is cooler... the domain name or that fact that i have an ip address. you can tell i'm only a wannabe nerd.
domain names that i should have gotten first:
www.allstar.com
www.galactichero.com
www.alwaysthinking.com
www.starcommand.com
domain names that i should weasel out of mike's possession:
www.galactichero.net
one of the best parts of the game tonight were the posters and such. who knew you could come up with so many election/basketball jokes?
well clearly there was no need for a recount. UF played some good ball but we gator-haters sent them packing back to the land of electile dysfunction.
maybe they just didn't have what it takes... or maybe they were terrified by dickie v's halftime performance. as far as i'm concerned, that man has about as much rhythm as credibility.

and i am to reply to that how? even if they are a pain in the ass i guess boys can be pretty cute too...
top 5 reasons NOT to move to ohio
-you could never convince me to move to ohio by insinuating that your autumns are better than michigan's, or that the freakin' buckeyes are better than the spartans, or that ohio even has tourist attractions...
i don't know if you know anyone from iowa, but i do. several. and i have yet to meet anyone who really wanted to be in iowa.
i've been to iowa. it's a very pretty state. it didn't seem so bad. i wouldn't mind moving to iowa. i bet i could even make a list of reasons to move to iowa. but i'm not that ambitious so it'll just be a top 5 list.
top 5 reasons to move to iowa:
5) yummy corn
4) cheap midgrade gas
3) the second coolest big ten school
2) the chance to recieve this honor
1) living inside the same state lines as this guy
pork queen link handily snatched from this funny 'you might be an iowan if' list. though you might also be a michigander if much of that applies...
lameguy8: wanna chat?
StepheeJoy: i don't know... do i?
lameguy8: no
StepheeJoy: oh. i guess not then...
lameguy8: ok
yeah for hidden mickeys!

Top 10 ways to solve the Election10) Gore is President Monday, Wednesday and Fridays. Bush: Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday and alternate Sundays. Bush gets Presidency for two weeks during summer, Gore gets all major holidays including Jewish holy days.
9) Laura Bush and Tipper Gore mud wrestle for Presidency live on pay per view.
8) Get Martin Sheen to play the President, and outside of the improvement, most people won't notice the difference.
7) Bush & Gore sue each other in Federal Court. Winner gets the Presidency. Winner's lawyer gets Oregon, Indiana and one of the Carolina's.
6) One round, paper scissors rock, no flinchies, no do-overs.
5) Person chosen to co-host with Regis Philbin also wins Presidency.
4) Run the election again on Thursday and Saturday. (Best Two out of Three Wins)
3) Two Words: Swimsuit Competition
2) Al Gore and George W. Bush ride Disney's Splash Mountain continuously until one of them falls off. If both fall off simultaneously Ralph Nader is named the winner and gets to declare the Disney ride unsafe at any speed.
1) Just let Bill Clinton keep on being President. You know he wants to.
random facts about me, things i know, things i have, and skills i posess (one of which is not spelling):

StepheeJoy: i think i might be a player...Sara BG 711: a hardcore player
and what an impressive farmer's tan as well!
they did leave out one important detail... andre hutson is hot!
i'd also like to state for the record that there are two men's basketball teams in the big ten that are as of yet undefeated. the secret to their success? they both boast waverly warriors! yes, folks. my high school is undefeated in the big ten.

woo hoo! impromptu trip to bowling green to see mike and sara! hahahah. fun fun fun fun
today i saw a car with a custom license plate that read 'JAMBO'. god, am i homesick!
i was in the disney store today and familiar music came on. ('imagination....') well, i'll be damned if i didn't nearly bust into tears right there and then being the emotional mess i have been temporarily reduced to...
hey, you! yes... you. look right down there, below this post... see where it says the word 'discuss'? that is actually meant for you to use. yes, you! you too can add cheer and excitement to my life by clicking that little word and telling us all how it is. go on... do it. pleeeeeaase
sara needed an entertaining excuse ("All late papers must be accompanied by an entertaining excuse. Very late papers risk heavy sarcasm*, reduced grade, or defenestration") for her late term paper... i hope this will suffice:
Attn: Prof. Crow,
Please excuse the lateness of one so-called term paper written by Miss Sara Williams. Miss Williams has not been herself lately, in the most literal sense. Please allow me to explain.
My name is Dr. Sweitzer. I am a research scientist in the field of neurokinesiological transportation. Miss Williams has volunteered in my lab on weekends for about 9 months now. Unfortunately last month she was involved in an incident of equipment failure in the lab and the entity that is 'Sara' was cross-transdiluted into the labs 'neuronet'. During this time you may have seen 'Sara' around campus, in class even, however her physical being has merely been operating in somewhat of an 'auto-pilot' mode. Not until last night were we able to reimpose Miss Williams's 'self' into her body during a dangerous test run of a new neurokinesiological transportation method.
Because of this unfortunate turn of events I'm afraid Miss Williams has been unable to complete the aforementioned term paper by the appropriate date.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions reguarding this matter and I do trust you will maintain the appropriate professional confidentiality regarding this matter.
Thank you for your understanding,
Dr. S. Sweitzer

*now you have to love a teacher who openly threatens heavy sarcasm.
i was going to go on a 'diet' (hahahaha) so i look all cute when i go back to florida and not like i've been sitting on my arse for three months... but it will have to wait until after this week of chocolate craving, hormonal imbalance, and generally bursting into tears at the drop of a hat... you know what i mean... (wink wink)
