SarahPLiz · June 2010

1. Is it raining where you are?
It was until about 5 minutes ago. We had a hell of a storm last night.

stoked is probably not the right word. Probably more like ignorant and thereby apathetic. I have never in my life watched a soccer game. It just wasn't popular where I grew up. I suppose this makes me uncultured.

If yes, who do you support? If no, go directly to jail, do not pass go, do not collect two hundred dollars.

Play volleyball (except for serving), but I'm learning

the splits! thank goodness for beginning dance when I was five

5. What's for dinner?
who knows, depends on when we get back from volleyball (see practicing)

I should go directly to jail. Never followed this at all. Though we watched Invicitus last week (rugby, not soccer, but still South Africa), and thoroughly enjoyed it.

His is for their new super spicy chicken sandwich. I HATE spicy food so much that the smell makes me gag. However, I do love me some chicken nuggets with Polynesian sauce.
