is it possible? and Glasses

K- So I was doing my duty as Primary President and was at primary softball this morning(6am) and I was asking my councelors and parents around if any of them have a vampire wig that I could borrow. They said no, but then asked why and I told them that I want to dress up ( alittle) for the Borders Breaking Dawn party. (from the Twilight series) and 3 of them said that they couldnt even get thru the first chapter, it was so korny and unrealistic etc etc. I was like WHAT??? Is that even possible? How could anyone NOT like /LOVE this book/series of books. I was beside myself that they could think that. I dont think we could be friends anymore. hahah. Just kidding. But seriously, something is wrong with them if they think that.
And now for the glasses- I was visiting with a very dear friend of mine yesterday( she came over and we were talking for like 2 1/2 hours) I totally lost track of time. Anyway while I was chatting with her my boys pretty much had run of the house. And little did I know that Conner had gone into my bathroom and pulled himself up on the counter enough to reach my glasses. Let me tell you, that they are about 4 years old and they currently are being held together with gorilla glue on one side. And so only one side folds down to close. NOT ANYMORE!! Conner decided he wanted to take the good side and bend it backwards. I almost flipped. I can't afford to go get an eye exam plus new glasses. I fixed them to the best of my ability and they work (for now) but honestly I dont know how much longer they will hold up.

Maybe that's why you've been having head aches.jk. About the Twilight series. I don't know a whole lot about it I do know that Carli's sister is about into it as you are. If you are wanting to sell your highchair let me know. $20 sounds good.

I hope this doesn't affect our relationship or how you feel about me but....I didn't love the series. I can see the appeal but there were some things I couldn't get past. Anyway, I just needed to get that off of my chest! :) I think I need to read them again. I was in such a hurry to get it over with that I didn't take time to enjoy it. Sucks about the glasses. I need glasses SOOO bad but like you...I can afford them. Oh well. I'll just keep squinting. :)

I can't believe that people don't like Twilight! It's the best cheap entertainment. About the glasses, Lily broke mine as well last week, so we're making due. :-)

Hey, I noticed on your friends list that you have a (cory chiles) didn't he use to be married to a girl named Kate? Or is it a different Cory?

Maranda Whittle said...

Ok, just wondering. The Cory you're describing is the one I'm thinking of. Yah maybe you can ask Jessica. I was really good friends with Kate from Jr. High and High school, but havn't heard from her since graduation.

Cory♥Jessica said...

Hey Calrie, I just read your post, ya he is the Cory Chiles from MHS. He graduated in '99, so a year before you.

Man, that's sad about your glasses. I hope the hold on a little longer. If you know your prescription you can go to 39dollarglasses.com. And pretty much all their glasses are $39. It's awesome. That's where we gets Pete's

Beluga said...

Oh no! Well if you still have your prescription you can get them for $39 online,I will email you the website. Or, if you have insurance or can go to one of those discount places get an eye exam and the prescription. By law they have to give you access to your prescription for 1 year.

Beluga said...

oh my gosh, I just saw someone else already told you .hehehehe. I thought I was giving you such original advice :)

Maybe reading so much has to do with your headaches?! Does your presription need to be updated (since you had your boys)? I have to say I was so skeptical when I started reading the books last year. I honestly hated the idea of vampires. Umm...can you say obsessed as well now??!! Gotta love it!
