kristen: "Don't sing that. It makes me want--want to eat potato chips."
kristen: *says something funny*
me: "When I turn 18, I'm going to adopt you."
kristen: *won't stop laughing*
*walking out of the tasty freeze and smelling manure*
kristen: "It smells like P.A. here."
me: "You mean it smells like P.U!"
(I actually love the smell of manure! Maybe I'm weird?)
*a little boy at church runs up and shows me his toy*
little boy: "Do you see this?"
me: "Wow. That's neat!"
little boy: "Don't touch it. It's priceless." *whispers* "I got it out of a toy machine."
kristen: *singing* "I fixed my bookmark because I'm sooooo amazing."
