actually, mad, she gave me my money before she died. good thing too
'cause it turns out she threw her will out and i doubt i would have scored so well, not that i have any comments regarding controlling siblings or anything.

How did she feel about that, fourcats?
Did she cut you out of her will?

At least you don't have to live with her, Talion.
Needless to say, it adds another level of awkwardness.

Though I wold never write things like this about my family, I haven't told my mother about my blogging out of fear of her "editorial concerns."

Hopefully very soon, Rcky ...
In fact, I have a whole mess of stories/anecdotes awaiting "script approval".
Yet another reason I should be a much better blogger once I return to school: my mother will no longer be able to prevent me from posting.

Perhaps so, Whacky ...
Though the odor I'm referring to is more like Vick's Vap-O-Rub mixed with Ben Gay.

Humm...my grandma smelled of lavender...and old lace.
The other grandma used some perfume that was realy pungent. Are all grandmas like that?
Good early warning system though.

I think it was because 1) I saw taxis everywhere.
2) Someone falsely told me they made a lot of money.

I don't think I could, like, do a public performance, or anything.
But I wouldn't mind taking a class.

I'm not sure, exactly ...
There's just something about it.
I saw Suhaila Salimpour one time. And she just seemed so exotic and beautiful.

Possibly a combination of the two ...

Bratz. Those dolls? Aghhh...
Well, my sister makes like, weigh charts (she's skinny!), or when she reads something at work, she'd just make charts out of those information. She really enjoys it.

She's a lot of fun, actually.
She mostly talks about stupid stuff, though.
Oh, and she still plays with "Bratz". Seriously.

trading, selling stocks, funds, stuffs like that.
She has a weird thing, though. My sister loves making charts, graphs, and she highlights something, and then underlines it again.

So, if you are not here yet, I can talk to myself quite fine, actually. She's 25, a broker, talkative, and likes expensive stuffs.

That's what I'd like to know, Passion.
It's partly explained two posts previous; apparently, she's just sick of what she believes is a very inaccurate portrayal of the quality of my life.
