All will be explained soon.

Dirty Pirate Hooker

:(Edit):

So. The F-Word girl.

Little Brother's Friend: I know the f-word, but I'm not allowed to say it. Here, I'll whisper it in your ear, L*!

Me (assuming what said 'f-word' was): No, no! (laughs nervously) Don't do that!  No corrupting him with cursing, evil child!

:(Okay, so I didn't actually say that last part, but I assure you I was thinking it.):

Later on that evening, the cute little devil decided to draw a heart for Valentine's day and split it in hald between myself and my cousin.

Little Brother's Friend: Okay, so one half goes to the skinny girl, and one goes to the f-word girl.

Me: Oh. !!! thinks: so that's what he meant by f-word.

I don't know whether to laugh because I assumed he meant what any 21 year old would, or whether to cry because a seven year old called me the *gasp* fat girl.

Children are amazingly blunt.

Now, as for the Dirty Pirate Hooker pseudonym...

Kris: So, Ashley found out that you told me she said I was so cute the first time she met me.

Me: So? She did.

Kris: She told me to tell you that you are a Dirty Pirate Hooker.

Me: Huh. Never been called that one before.

:(I know. It's not that funny, but as per usual, you had to be there.):

Yay, I explained it finally. You were just waiting on the edge of your seat for those explanations, weren't you?! Yeah. I didn't think so.

Later!

Things are looking up, and I'm starting to take control of the current situation that is my life, but I'm still feeling pretty small, metaphorically of course. 

Wish me best of luck, and pray for me if you're the praying sort. Just a little mention to the Big Man. I need all the prayerful intervention I can get.

...are ridiculously expensive. Seriously.

Tell me why exactly I buy a USED textbook for $80+, but when I go to sell it back, I only get around $10-15? It makes absolutely no sense, and I despise the textbook companies. They say furniture has the highest mark-ups? I believe textbooks could give furniture a run for its money. Literally.

I am going to bed. Night.
