The envelope game

So, before I left Kansas, my friends held a funeral in my behalf.  It was so much fun!  I walked in and they had a shrine to me with candles and my ashes.  Each person at the party took turns telling what they were going to miss about me, like I actually was dead and would never return.  Dubya is always so creative in her party planning!  We had funeral type food, such as "funeral potatoes", that were sooo good, we had green jello with marshmallows (typical Mo food!) and a couple other things.  After the funeral commenced, we had time to play some games.  Dubya had been telling me about a super fun game that her friend made up.  It's called the envelope game.  The way it works: each person has an envelope, they write a question on the outside.  They pass each envelope around and each person puts an answer to the question in the envelope.  Sounds boring, right?  Well, the answers to the questions have to include someone that's in the game.  It was kind of confusing at first, but it got to be so much fun.  We all had to promise before the game started that we wouldn't get offended and that we were all just joking by the "zings" we were throwing at each other.  Once everyone has had a chance to write an answer to the questions (without letting anyone else see their answers), the game leader collects the envelopes and reads all of the questions and answers aloud.  Below are some of my favorite questions and answers.

Who's most likely to let themselves go after marriage?  You know, gain weight, get ugly...

-Morgan because his wife will tell him on the wedding night "never again"., 

-Brett, he's already started

-Jacob, he won't get a pretty girl, so he'll have to ugly up

-Missy, but how can you let yourself go when you never had it together in the first place?

-Some of you have done it BEFORE marriage!  Yikes!

-Is it already happening?  You aren't even married Suzy!

-Jake, he tries so hard already, he won't be able to keep up the maintenance!

Who would you want to go on a road trip with?

-Suzy...if it's an overnighter!

-Morgan, so he can bring his guitar and sing more depressing songs

-Greg, if I had ear plugs!

Who's likely to be a dirty mistress?

-Missy is a dirty mistress

-Jake, the sex change is coming as soon as his hair gets long enough.  Fake hair, not okay.  Fake everything else...perfectly fine.  And who is dirtier than Jake?  Exactly!

-Missy, she currently is...with her boss!

Who's most willing to make out with someone of the same sex and like it?

-Whitney, she's so desperate and is willing to do anything!

-Morgan, I'm pretty sure he did enjoy it.  Ask Jake!

-Suzy because she'll be sick of her guy friends not making  move, so she'll make out with a girl to get noticed

Who's most likely to be arrested and for what?

-Missy, indecent exposure

-Sadly Suzy, she stole my heart

Who would you like to be your super hero and why?

-Whitney, she'd be Super Boob Hammock girl.  She can make anything disappear when strategically placed between her super boobs!

-Julie, she could be the invisible woman.  Let's face it, the less we see of her, the better!

Who's most likely to pick up a prostitute?

-Whitney, I mean she picks herself up every time she's down

-I dunno, but Jake is most likely to be a cross-dressing he-she prostitute

-Suzy, only if the prostitutes name is Jake...wink!

After reading all of that you probably think that our friendships are so twisted, but try it!  It's so fun!

Life in Pittsburgh

Ok, so I finally moved to Pittsburgh.  After months and months of waiting, it happened!  Hoorah!  I left Kansas almost 2 weeks ago and the moving company is finally bringing my belongings today.  No more sleeping on an air mattress in an empty apartment.  Dubya and my friends threw me a funeral before I left, which was fantastic.  I'll be adding a post later about an awesome game we play.  It deserves it's very own post!  I've been working out of hotel offices for the past week and will be doing so until the end of next month.  Then I'll finally get to move into our brand new building and my brand new office...can't wait.  

Shelly got me reading the most intense books of all time!  The Twilight series.  I'm almost embarrassed to say that I'm actually reading them because basically they are teenage romance novels.  Eek!  Shelly convinced me to read the first one "Twilight" because it was awesome.  I was very leery of this, because all in all I'm not a big reader.  I never have been.  In school I would buy the notes from the books so I wouldn't have to read them!  So, I read "Twilight" (about 500 pages) in about 3 days.  I couldn't believe it!  I got sucked in.  Then I decided that I HAD to read the next one to see what would happen.  I read New Moon (almost 600 pages) in 1 day!!!!  Seriously?!  I started Eclipse last night and read about a third of it.  I don't know what it is about these books that just lures me in, but I'm obsessed!  I'm sure there will be posts dedicated to these books.  The 4th book just came out and I can't wait to get it, and then she's writing a 5th as well!  I guess it's good that I have these books to obsess over because as of right now, I have no friends!  Boo!
