Mental Leftovers

Oh, good Lord.
Apart from being in a turkey coma, this friday is going pretty good. I keep looking around the house for familiar things, because I keep thinking I must be in the wrong house, since mine has never been this clean! I wonder how long it will last.... I'm listening to Enter the Haggis's Soapbox Heroes album in their multi-media center; you can check it out here:

ETH is so awesome! They don't play just one kind of music, it's a mix of fusion, bluegrass, celtic, rock, and pretty much anything you can think of! A lot of the songs are tradtional Irish (Star of the County Down; The Minstril Boy; etc.) and Scottish (Martha Stewart --no, not the lady who was put in jail). However, there are a good bit of political and society based songs, or something like that.
Hang on- I got on here to talk about Friday, not ETH, but then, how could I resist? lol
Last nights dinner was pretty good. A lot of it consisted of my grandmother and her mother-in-law rolling eyes at each other.... but I won't go in to that. After eating, we shared stories about chicken-houses and liquor stills-- no, I'm not an alchoholic, just so you know. lol

My mother refused to let me play our Greatest Hits of Queen throughout dinner. *Pout*
Queen rocks.

"Ainge" Belt

Well, Taekwondo (a Koren martial art) class was today. A good many
people recieved their orange-- or as we girls sometimes joke with our cute
little southern accents "Ainge"-- belt today. I'm still a white belt b/c this is
my first year. Oh well. I still think purple belts are pretty than "ainge" (lol!).
