i just traveled close to 300 miles north to my new home. i am safe and sound and to all the people who doubted the capabilities of my little, red 1985 toyota celica i have only 4 words: I love my celica! i LOVE my celica! i love MY celica! i love my CELICA! I LOVE MY CELICA! well, that may technically be 20 words, but still. my mom followed me up...just in case...and feff gave my mom's new honda accord a run for it's money. i am so excited.
so anyway, i am here. i will try to email my new address and phone number and such info to those of you who may care. and tomorrow i will be getting a new camera, and it will be my 100th post, so be sure to check out my blog in the next couple of days for an awesome adventure.
oh, new news on the home front...summer ended up finding me some cool people to rent my house. they are george and barbara (not bush) and they hail from pennsylvania (not 1600 pennsylvania avenue). barbara is working at the new hospital for a few months so they needed a place to crash. they seem like a terrific couple who will take care of my little home. thanks for the hook-up sum. speaking of presidents (sort of) my mom and i almost got ran over by the presidential motorcade on our way up here. they were on their way to meet barack on his tour. in a way, i wish they would have actually slammed into my car when they failed to realize i had applied my breaks to narrowly miss slaughtering a deer on the highway. not that i want feff to get ruined, but i wanted to be like, "hey, you ruined my cash for clunkers car!" and see how long it took them to get me MY money.
i left my baby, maggie, in the loving care of mitchel, hank, chantz and kentucky louisiana. i am super sad, but i know that she will be taken care of and loved while i am busy doing the school thing. she would be so lonely in my new house and she is a definite people puppy. (mitchel, please see if you can email me the photos you took and give mags a big hug from me and don't forget to sing to her. oh she's my baby, oh she's my girl. sniff.)
well, matt's probably sick of me hogging his computer, so i better go. i'm getting a new laptop for school, so i'll be able to keep you all updated on a regular basis. love you all.

about me
- Danelle
- i love to read, but only happy, fictional books. reading is my escape from the everyday stresses of life, so i want the story to be interesting, uplifting, and over with within 800 pages. no loose ends, please.
some quotes i find amusing
In a world full of Cheerios, be a Froot Loop!
I can't tell you if genius is hereditary, because heaven has granted me no offspring.
i hope your eco-friendly status symbol doesn't smash into a poor, innocent tree.
a good workplace safety rule is to keep employees apart if their weight differs by 11,850 pounds and the heavier one has two prior murders.
women are angels and when someone breaks our wings, we simply continue to fly. . .on broomsticks. we're flexible like that.
advice is a lot like deodorant, the people you most want to give it to are probably not going to use it anyway.
There is great need for a sarcasm font.
How the heck are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?
Map Quest really needs to start their directions on #5. I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.
Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.
You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren't going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.
I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page research paper that I swear I did not make any changes to.
I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Darn it!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voicemail. What'd you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away?
I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.
"when you use the word 'like' in inappropriate places all the time, it makes you sound like you don't know nothin'!"
"the happiest people aren't necessarily those who have everything, but those who make the most of everything they have."
"you were meant for me. perhaps as a punishment."
"the only consistent feature in all of your dissatisfying relationships is you."
"if you think the problems the government creates are bad, just wait until you see their solutions."
"genius is 1 percent inspiration and 99% perspiration, which is why engineers sometimes smell really bad."
"with focus, dedication and steroids, men can achieve impossible dreams. like breaking a world record. or growing their own breasts."
"the downside of being better than everyone else is that people tend to assume you're pretentious."
"quitters never win, and winners never quit, but those who never win AND never quit are idiots."
"when you wish upon a falling star, your dreams can come true. unless it's really a meteorite hurtling to the earth which will destroy all life. then you're pretty much hosed no matter what you wish for. unless it's death by meteor."
"since i can't be a good example to others, the least i can do is serve as a terrible warning."
"i can't wait for annie to get her first facelift. . .she's going to need 2 doctors." joan rivers about two-faced annie duke.

"why doesn't he try to kick our ass at being a good person?" -jesse james to dennis rodman with love
“once you can accept the universe as matter expanding into nothing that is something, wearing stripes with plaid comes easy.” -einstein (thanks trina!)
"it may be true that the early bird gets the worm, but have you ever stopped to consider that the early worm gets eaten?"

"rose-colored glasses are never made in bifocals. nobody wants to read the small print in dreams."
"intelligence without ambition is a bird without wings."
"i've always wanted to be somebody, but i see now i should have been more specific."
"the first sign of maturity is the discovery that the volume knob also turns to the left."
"how old would you be if you didn't know how old you was?"
"when i was younger, i could remember anything, whether it had happened or not."
"some folks never exaggerate--they just remember big."
"if you're yearning for the good old days, just turn off the air conditioning."
"i don't want everyone to like me; i should think less of myself if some people did."
"don't accept your dog's admiration as conclusive evidence that you are wonderful."
"it's no fun doing nothing when you've got nothing to do."
"some people are a lot like slinkies. they don't really do much, but it puts a smile on your face when you see them tumble down a flight of stairs."
"tact is for people who aren’t witty enough to be sarcastic."
"scars are tattoos with better stories."
"i’d give my right arm to be ambidextrous."
"the trouble with life is there’s no background music."
"light travels faster than sound, that’s why some people appear bright until they speak."
"people are seldom too busy to stop and tell you how busy they are."
"the sooner you fall behind, the more time you’ll have to catch up."
"deep down I’m a very shallow person."
"before you insult somebody you should walk a mile in their shoes. that way when you insult them you'll be a mile away and have their shoes!"
"dance, even if you have to warn others to get out of the way first."
"by the time you read this you've already read it."

Great to hear you made it safe and sound - you are sooo close (well, alot closer, anyway) to us now.
Are you rooming with Matt?
Ella has a skate competition in the SLC area Sept 18-19 you should come and watch her skate, it will make you cry (always does me).
xo
Glad you made it up safely and I can't wait to get together!
Happy Relocation Day. Too bad you couldn't take your pup. Have a great week.
Christin
I am so glad you made it! And you are probably just right down the street from me now. I hope you got your invitation!
I'm sad you had to leave Maggie, but glad you made it to your destination!
I am so glad that your little feff made the trip without incident. I think those old Toyota engines run forever. Glad you are all moved in and thanks for the e-mail with your new contact information.
i'm glad you made it! good luck with the start of school...you will do great!
Im so sad I wont see you around as much. You are super. Good luck with school.
