2am news flash!

lol well, as you may or may not have noticed, i'm up at 2am. i'm reading Brisingr (3rd book in the Eragon series-i had started reading it a while ago, but one of my family members moved it and i sorta forgot about it, so now i'm just starting it over.) so anyways, as i was reading i came to the realization that parker isn't the person ranked lowest on my list of people! in fact, he never has been! he's somewhere around 4th from the bottom, or second, depending on how you look at the people ranked in the bottom slot(s). either way, it's quite an accomplishment, because if the scale goes from -100 to 100, these people are -105, and parker is only like -85. i'm not even sure what prompted a thought like this...wait! ...nope....nothing. i'll let you know if i remember. but anyways, the champions of the "i dislike these people" side of my people spectrum are....
drumroll please!
Cameron, Jesse, and Robert Meyer!
these three obnoxious people lived down the street from me when i lived in Virginia!

They were all pompous, obnoxious, "i'm so awesome" jerks and i had to deal with them ALL THE TIME. cameron is a year older than me, jessie is victoria's age, and i'm not entirely sure how old robert is. i think he was a kindergardener at the main time i was around him. maybe not, because alexandra was only in grade k, so maybe he was a preschooler....idk. it doesn't matter that much, because the point is, he was an obnoxious idiot and he was really young.

in fact, he was such a fantastic person (as my voice drips with sarcasm) that he would ride around on his big wheeler, flip people off and curse them out. oh, and try to hang out with alexandra. ALL THE TIME. (creepy!) but you may be saying to yourself, "oh he's young! he was probably just mimicking people and not knowing what he was doing!" but TRUST ME. he knew.

so either the meyer brothers are all tied for first, or i have to rank them from worst to "best". and now that i'm thinking on the topic of people i dislike, another person comes to mind that is quite possibly still below parker. (and by below i don't mean above. i mean they have a number lower than whatever i gave him above-i'm too lazy at this point to try and scroll up to see. lol) and that person is amanda l. for those of you who are unaware, she's matt's (my friend in virginia. ) sister. mandy gained the favor of alexandra (she's easily swayed.) but i don't like her.

mandy spent the time she was around me (and i was around matt) to taunt both of us. she was constantly talking about how we were such a cute couple and crap like that. i wanted to kill her. needless to say, it was completely obnoxious, and eventually, others followed suit. such as his other sister sam. most of the time sam didn't really pay much attention to us, so she's kinda a little (like a few points) below neutral. but she got in her remarks too.

plus, mandy just over all wasn't very nice to most people. she was the meanest bus patrol ever (i was in either kgarden or 1st grade (i think) when she had her rain of terror.) adnd when she "graduated" from Bennet Elem. she would stand at the bus stop and curse out kids on the bus that were talking out the windows at people. and one time she flicked someone off. idk why though. i did my best to try and ignore her most of the time.

and then when i went back to visit some of my neighbors like the summer after i moved, i was walking by their house, and their mom was out trimming trees and she was like "HI! have you seen matt?" and i was like no and she said "well he's down in the cul-de-sac if you wanna go talk to him" (their mom was a nice person.) and so victoria and i were walking back to go down and talk for a couple minutes, and i barely got to the edge of the fence that bordered the corner of the cul-de-sac, and i heard mandy and cameron (my 2 favorite people. not) talking, along with a few other people, and so me being the brave person i am, i turned around and decided that it wasn't worth it, and hoped i'd see matt wandering around before i left. and i heard this evil shriek (not really, but it was really loud) that was like "RACHEL!" and so as i tried to speed up and act like i hadn't heard anything, a whole gang appeared behing me and mandy was like "HI!" with this really weird look on her face that was sorta friendly, but had a "MWUAHAHAHAH!" that went with it. and victoria and i turned around and were faced with cameron, his gang of loser friends, mandy and matt (who looked serious, as usual).
it was kinda funny in a way, because if we had a table in between us, which we unfortunatly didn't, we could've been going through a drug deal, because our "gangs" were facing each other for like a 30 seconds, not really saying anything, more like observing each other. but anyways, after the 30 sec observation period, i was about to say something, when mandy pushed matt forward half like he was some sort of offering, and half like she was trying to shove him into me (you know like in movies where guys and girls' shove two people together, forcing an awkward hug) and mandy snickered, and cameron smirked, and matt turned a little red and half turned and glared at mandy. and by doing this, she TOTALLY ruined it, because we probably could've chatted or something, and it ended up being really awkward and it was kinda like
"hi"
"hi"
"soo...."
"yeah"
"so how's it goin?"
"good"
"cool"
"yeah"
"well...um...bye..."
"...bye"

and then i kinda fled the scene. so i don't like mandy.

in fact, i'm debating ...and....i've decided. mandy and cameron are tied for 1st, and then robert, and then jesse. and then someplace floating around 4th (or 5th, if you skip 2nd since there are two 1st's . which doesn't really make sense to me, but i've seen it done.) is parker. i think.

i very well might think of people...wait! i just thought of more people that top him. felix and curtis lee. i'll put it this way since it's almost 3am now. they're both really annoying losers that i would very much enjoy beating up. or paying someone to beat up so i could watch. i don't know which one i would get more enjoyment out of (now that i sound like a total freak show jerk.) and i think felix is at 4th and curtis is at 5th.

i'll just leave it that way. at this point, i'm done with thinking this out a ton. i know i don't like them, not quite as much...you know what screw it! actually no. neveremind. i haven't been blogging for an hour this late at night just to say screw it. so this has been quite an interesting night! or morning....whatever. so in all reality, parker is at like 6th (or 7th-see the reasoning for this in the paragraph below the convo block.) , which migt make some people happy. maybe not. maybe they won't really care. i'm thinking they aren't gonna care. but anyways,


maybe its just the fact that i have like no patience most of the time, but there's a lot of people i dont like...

btw, if you were wondering, that's a "dazed+half asleep+"oh wow"+pissed off because i was warm and comfortable and now i have to go to the bathroom+wanting to get back to my book because this post turned out longer than i thought" face. yeah. i know. it's messed up, but at 3am, so am i.

P.S. and now that i think about it even more, (i thought i was gonna stop thinking. i guess not.) since all of these people are below him, parker is only like a -75 or so (possibly higher), because there has to be room to space out the other people, because there's a little bit of a gap between some of them i'm sure, and i'm not gonna mush 'em all together, because that messing everything up and leaves the amount of dislike for a number much too high. that's the point in a bigger number range; to leave enough room to distinguish between different levels of annoyance. we wouldn't want someone in the middle of the lower half to be grouped with the upper part of the lower half, because they're DIFFERENT LEVELS. have i lost you yet? because i'm not even sure i've been making sense. oh well. sigh. good night. or morning. WHATEVER!

lol wow i'm sad.

so today, i went to home depot because i needed bird net for my summer project (a garden). one of my strawberry plants has lots of cute strawberries (ranging from decent size to just starting, so i won't really specify a size) growing on it, and i need to protect them from the birds, and Alexandra (she's a fruit monster and I'm kinda worried that she's gonna try and eat them before they're even ripe. or at all. lol)

oh wait! have i introduced you to my sisters? I'm pretty sure i neglected to mention them when i did my first post.

Victoria-12, sassy, 5' 11"-ish (holy CRAP!), fairly decent most of the time, just kinda talks to my friends without hanging on them.

Alexandra- 10, bossy, pushy, cranky, preppy, annoying, significantly less than 5' 11" lol. well, maybe not. idk how tall she is. i know she's taller than Queenie by at least a couple inches, but most people are..., very hard to get along with, tries to suck up to my friends.

it's not that i don't love my sisters equally (well..that's not entirely true...jk!...maybe.) it's just that most of the time, Victoria is so much easier to get along with! but ANYWAYS!

wait....where was i? oh YEAH! and so i got the bird net, and i started un-rolling it. it was a hassle from the start! so i started breaking little stick thingies to hold the net to the ground (don't worry, it's all relevant!) and eventually, i was looking at it, and some of the net was drooping onto the plants because I'm incapable of doing something like this right, and i was already sick of that crap. so i grabbed my scissors, some of my stick thingies, and pulled back some of the net and scooched forward so i was under it. like an idiot.
so once i got my stuff all tied down or whatever, i was like "ok, now i can just cut this and tie it closed.
problem is, the stuff was all bunched and twisted behind me, so i was trapped in. AND i couldn't tell where all of the stuff was, because in the right lighting (which just happened to be most of the light outside of course) it kinda "disappears". and so i grabbed my scissors and started cutting, but thanks to the amazing disappearing net, i couldn't tell where i had cut, and i was cutting blindly. and then the little screw thing holding the scissor blades together would get caught on the net, and it was a DISASTER!
i swear to god, it took me 20min to cut myself out of the netting, and i was pissed off when i got done!

so imagine a 5' 9", 14 year old girl in a t-shirt and shorts with wild hair and filthy bare feet trapped in bird netting with a couple little strawberry plants, sitting in the dirt with scissors, cutting madly at what seems like practically nothing, and thrashing a little and muttering to themselves angrily as they try to hold up bunches of black plastic net.
SURE! you laugh now, but how about i trap you in an area that's about 2x2 (feet) and then wrap some practically invisible, stubborn, plastic-ish netting! and then, tie it down, give you some scissors, and tell you to get out! we'll see how funny it is after that!
well, actually, i think it's pretty funny now, but at the time it wasn't! it sucked!

and in the mean time, my broccoli and chives are growing like crazy and my mom is freaking out about the one flower on the tomato plants. lol

so that's my story for the day.

and also, i went to my aunt's campground yesterday (well, technically, its not HERS, but she practically lives out there in the summer, so we just call it hers.) and there were some army guys there that had just come back from an Iraq tour or whatever, and most of them were CUTE! lol
my mom and aunt were like "if you were like 3 years older, you'd be having a field day out there!
but anyways, they were all over the place, fishing and talking and hanging out at the canteen and stuff, and i guess when Victoria was over watching my baby cousin and she was going back to my aunt's camper, there were these guys playing football. she said she was kinda watching them, and this guy kept like looking at her, and he missed a pass or whatever and he started doing a bunch of push ups super fast all of the sudden.
lol i was trying to tell her that he was probably trying to show off for her or something, but she was all like "no no. he was probably in a contest or something with his friends." i. think. not.
who knows? maybe I'm wrong, but normally, guys do stuff like a million fast push ups when they're trying to show off, and since Victoria is a giant, and has been mistaken for a high schooler more than once, i wouldn't be surprised if he thought she was older than 12. lol
so yeah. now i feel all boy crazy because it's not like i wasn't thinking about being older than i am. but it was like 100 something cute guys all running around! and Victoria was thinking it too!
lol i am SUCH a weirdo.

hopefully i don't have to re-open that netting to water the plants, 'cause i might not make it out if i do...
