| My Family and Pets... |
| Mom As usual, moms are the best people in the world. Mine has helped me with all of my issues and everything else. She's also really good at baking, sewing, and anything that has to do with research...go mommy. Dad Oh, yes. Dear dad, he can be a butthead. He is really nice most of the time though. Talk about a right wing conservative! Of course, Dad's the one who taught me all of the sarcasm, stubborness, and buttheadedness I have. Nona The only grandma I have. She's really nice, in fact, almost too nice. But she isn't your typical grandma...I won't explain. It'll just take too long. Papa The only grandpa I have. He is a World War II veteran, in fact he got out of the war without a scratch. He has a heart of gold and loves the company of his family. I don't know what else to say, except that if you ever want to get him something, make it peanut brittle. Uncle Bernie We're talking the coolest uncle on the planet! Uncle Bernie is single, but that doesn't make him any less fun. He is so nice and would do anything to help--he's even given big things to people that he has only met a few times! Uncle Mark Yet another really cool uncle. He has a great sense of humor, so naturally we get along great. One thing that he is great at is doing impressions. He loves to do Mr. Hankey from "South Park" and all of the characters from "Hogan's Heros". Uncle John This is a guy who loves to travel. In fact, he and my aunt just bought a house in Austria! They spend more time in Europe than America. He is really nice though. He loves to tease, and he is REALLY smart! Uncle Logan Well, I don't usually see uncle Logan. He lives with his daughter and wife in Berkeley. I do remember that when I think I last saw him was at a wedding when my cousin and I were really little. He danced with both of us and we had a lot of fun. Aunt Mary Uncle Mark's wife. She is really nice and thoughtful. She loves Mexican art, food, and everything else. I know that she is also really into natural things and healthy food. I guess you can also say that she is really into other cultures. Aunt Judy Uncle John's wife. She is also really smart and loves to travel with uncle John. She has a heart of gold and is also into really natural things. We recently bought her a yoga set for Christmas--she thought that some of the positions were impossible to do. Aunt MaryAnn Uncle Logan's wife. Like most everyone else in my family, she is really nice. I remember that whenever her daughter Alison and I would put on plays, she loved to watch us. She is a very devoted parent. Selena My older cousin. Ok, well, what can I say? I've told all of my friends about her. I guess it's safe to say that she is a blond ditz. Hey! She's proud of it! She is also in love with Toby Keith (a famous country singer). I think that I've said enough... Alison (a.k.a. Elizabeth) My other cousin. I don't see her very often. In fact, I'm lucky if I see her once a year! Oh, well. We communicate with each other very often. When we do see each other, we love to put on plays for the adults. We also do magazines. (more on that later) Tootie Just about the sweetest person you'd ever want to meet! She is my aunt Judy's mom, so she isn't immediate family--yet I consider her almost a second grandma. She also puts on a killer chippino feed every year. She is the best cook when it comes to that stuff! Last but not least...CHRIS! This 22-year-old dude is really my neighbor, but I think of him as my big brother...and he thinks of me as his little sister. He is really nice (most of the time) and he is especially devoted to his work...school work. It seems that he never gives himself a break from that! Ned Only the cutest little Australian Shepherd to hit this planet! Ned is a little puppy--well, he's about ten months old. He is so crazy, and even idiodic at times. I don't mean to be graphic, but he tried to "do it" with my cat...my CAT!! Oh, well, just hope it doesn't happen again. Pete Pete is the new addition to the family. He is the cutest little puppy (half Kelpie, McNab, and some Border Collie). Everyone who sees him just falls in love with him and wants to keep him. But he causes to much "#2" problems for me (I'm sick of cleaning it up!). Tiger My cat. She is so cute and fat. Since we got Ned, she hasn't been around as much, but we still see her. One time she actually ate out of the same bowl as a tiny little mouse--without even harming it! But it was reported missing the next day...when we stopped looking! |
