So...let's say that you are doing laundry on a Sunday afternoon. You're a little distracted-not really paying attention to what you are doing...
Then you procrastinate folding your laundry all day...finally, towards 10 o'clock at night, you decide to finally start on it. You get done folding all of your clothes, start to put them away and then you think to yourself...
"Self, I don't think that you folded that skirt you wore yesterday that you definitely washed today...hmmm...it is definitely not here" (panic!) "oh, gosh! Where is it? Did I leave it in the laundry room? Did someone steal it? I have to go check!"
You go back to the laundry room. What do you find?
Your clothes. A whole load of them. That you forget all about.
"Self! How could you!"
And what else do you happen to notice?
Your clothes are FOLDED.
This means someone has not only taken your clothes out of the dryer but they also took the time and effort to carefully fold them for you.
Creepy.

Cute Things My Brother Says Part 2
Johnny Cash Himself:
Here are some things Rachel thought I left out:
"Let's get out of here"- when there's a storm
"Why you call me George?" HAHA
(Doctor, it hurts when I do this) "Don't DO that"
"Gerce"
and last but not least...
"Liz kissa him" - Every time Trenton's name is mentioned.
Oh, and I forgot to mention that he randomly turns to me and says "Trenton died. Sorry, Ziz" Trenton did not die.
And here are some pictures of the precious little boy!

David After Dentist Again
So, ironically enough, right after I post about the David After Dentist video, I see this:
http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/29892601/?gt1=43001
This is an article on MSNBC about whether David's parents were wrong to put the video up. I find it kind of ironic.
Perhaps they shouldn't have put it on youtube. Maybe David will regret it in the future (for now he says it makes him feel "like a rockstar"). Maybe it is a violation of his privacy. Well, I don't really see what that has to do with anyone else (i.e. all of the people that think doing such things are wrong). Do you see what I mean? If his parents wanted to share this moment with everyone...well, that was their decision. People make wrong decisions all of the time. Making a big deal about it just brings even more publicity to the poor boy, am I right? It isn't hurting anyone for these parents to have done this. It is not causing David any physical or emotional harm. I suppose it could potentially cause him emotional harm but if that were to happen it would be because people keep telling him his parents shouldn't have done this. I think that would make me a little emotionally upset.
Am I wrong? What do you all out there think?
Oh, and P.S. I have no life. Well, I assume this from the length of this post about how I dislike people that ramble about things that don't matter to them personally...um hypocritical?

David After Dentist
This is really cute and funny.
For some random reason, our computer class teacher showed us this today. He claims it is pretty popular so you have probably already seen it but you know what? It is new to me and I feel like sharing.
David After Dentist
P.S. This reminds me so much of my little cousin Luke. I can so imagine him being like this after his surgery to remove his extra tooth. Which I'm assuming he has done, Rachel?...mom? anyone out there know?

Trust me, it works.
Stressed? Need to relax?
Try this:
Soothing Sounds!
Sure, maybe it is to help you sleep but it also lets you relax when you are feeling stressed.
My touching testimonial:
I was having a bad day and a friend suggested that I calm dowm by listening to some soothing sounds. Boy did it work! Now that I have Soothing Sounds, I will never be stressed again!

Step by Step
Day by day, a fresh start over, a different hand to play...suddenly an old sitcom's theme song is stuck in my head...and I suppose it is kind of fitting...
So, this "nub" thing. It can be confusing. I had to figure out how to use it on my own. I will attempt to help you understand its mystical ways.
Step 1: This is what I have on my laptop. I can only assume this is how most others are...I'm not too familiar on other styles. This is my first one.
Here is some of my fancy labeling:
Step Two: I place my hand like so (notice placement of fingers on buttons):
Here is an aerial view just so I'm covering all the bases:
(and don't mind that string...it's from my camera)
Step 3:It is just like a mouse, I promise...only it doesn't move. Your finger does the movin'. Just simply place your finger on the "nub" and tilt your finger in the direction you want the pointer to go. Give her a try!
Step 4: Clicking. "Nubs" have "clicker thingys" just like a mouse. And you know how some mouses have the little wheel thingy you can use to scroll with? Well, "nubs" got 'em too! Only it transforms itself into a button. Here is a picture to tell you what is what:
***Oh, and a helpful tip to you! Make sure your hand is not resting on the touch pad...it may create problems. You may get confused as to why your pointer is going crazy...I know from experience.
Now, just go about your normal business and you are set to go. Use your "nub", point, click and be merry!
If you have any questions feel free to ask. And tell me if I wasn't clear on anything, please.

Dem dare do-dads....
So, I love these little red thingys...whatever they are called....I know a majority of people hate them. And I get it. I used to be one of those people... But, now, I love them!
They are so much more fun! Though they are harder to get used to...and now that I have, I changed mine to one that suits my fancy a bit better.
***Thank you, Trenton: http://xkcd.com/243/
AND CHECK THIS OUT! I came across this photo after googling "rolly mouse thing on laptops" (in an attempt to figure out what the heck they are called). And I have to say...this made me LOL. I would love to see someone actually use this:
And...ppsst, don't tell anyone but...I want one...
