Vintage clothing comes and goes. But what happens with vintage PEOPLE come back in style? Like one's own parents, for instance?
Yeah, can you believe that my parents happen to be cooler and more popular than I am? My mom has one of the funniest blogs you can come upon. Everyone loves her. Everyone wants to talk to TC. Everyone want's TC's approval. My teenage friends talk to my mom before they talk to me! Like we went to my friend Ty's house, and what does he do. He runs over to the car door and spills his latest doings to my mom. O_o Of course, maybe that's because my mom does happen to BE cool...
Because she is the only mom I've ever heard of who will drive her 15 y.o. daughter two states away to go to an amusement park with two guys they'd never met in real life before. My mom is one of the few moms left on the planet who would be willing to take all of her kids to a Toby Mac concert, and dance in the knee-high mud, or to a Switchfoot and Reliant K concert, and be able to sing all the words. She drives 6 days out of the week to ballet, hockey, and basketball practices, all 15-75 minutes away. How dedicated is that? Not to mention she treats teenagers like adults, and listens to them. She understands teens better than anyone else I know. Hm. I guess you rock, Mom. Just share the spotlight once in a while. ;)
Then, there's my dad. He's no teddy bear of a person. He's a 6 ft. grizzly, complete with mismatched teeth and and a scruffy face. But all the ladies in my town absolutely ADORE him. The 21 y.o. at blockbuster calls him her "sweetheart," and the head librarian is wrapped around his pinkie. She'll get him whatever book he asks for. *rolls eyes* The women at his job call him the "coolest dispatcher they've ever met." >.< And yeah, he printed the convo out on paper just to show me, and prove it to me. I BELIEVE YOU NOW DAD! Gosh, now quit being so famous...
When I ask them in awe of how they got to be so cool, and I'm not, what do you think they said? "It's cooler to be cool, than to wish you were."
Ok, I take back everything I ever said that was nice about them.
Never mind, scratch that last sentence. They're my way into college... hehe, I love you, Moma! And thank you for the new iPod, Papasita! x) Much love to you both, and this thanksgiving, I am thankful for you.

Aw, you are cooler than ur rants! They may be cool but yeah, just being under 20 is so cool that they don't have a chance :)
Merry Thanksgiving!
Chris doesn't know what he's talking about. He's obviously full of pumpkin pie. :P
Thank you for all the sweet things you said about me. You wanna be cool? Watch & learn, girlie, watch & learn. LOL.
You (and your sibs) are at the top of my "What I'm Thankful For" list. I can't imagine life without you.
@tc lol
@emma
heyo go look at the *cough* secret site :)
Okay, so, like, yeah, the first time I read the book I read everything Goldman had to say, but it's really so much more (for lack of better word) magical without it now that I can read it a second time and ignore that stuff. =]
And, so, rumor IS that there really isn't an original version of the Princess Bride... it says by S. Morgenstern, HOWEVER, if you look at the copyright in the front of the book, there's not an original copyright. My mom is of the opinion there'd need to be if there was an original version.
So, like, I've heard a ton of times, and I now tend to agree, that Goldman really wrote the book originally, and just STAGED it like that.
lol, I really don't know, but I just had to share, I guess. It's just something I've thought about for awhile, so, yeah.
The world may never know. xD
From what I have read, I think your whole family is cool... Vintage parents and hip 15 year olds...
Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!
