DEAF!!

While recovering from my tonsillectomy, my voice was very off. In fact, it sounded as if I couldn't hear myself....in other words it sounded as if I were deaf. This is a bit of a hindrance when you factor in that I was receiving phone calls from possible employers. Thank goodness a family member or my fiance was there most of the time to answer the calls for me.....but of course, the most important phone call came when I was home alone. There was nothing I could do but answer. After saying hello there was a pause on the other end, then a puzzled the woman asked for me. I told her it was me and that I sounded funny because I just had my tonsils out. Man, was she relieved. I mean, just imagine ..... you dial a number and the person who answers sounds as if they were deaf....Really? Why is a deaf person answering the phone?! BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Oh and I got the job!! SPED at Northridge High School baby!! I'm a teacher....WEIRD!!

New Jersey...who knew it was so entertaining?!

Under normal circumstances, there is no way anyone would catch me watching any of the television programs featuring the state of New Jersey. But getting your tonsils out and having hours and hours, days and days of nothing better to do....I was destined to be a Jersey Junkie. Now this doesn't mean I watch every Jersey show, no- only "Jerseylicious" and the "Jersey Shore"- I love Snookie. I still have my priorities and shun "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" and "Jersey Couture"- those are just not the real Jersey, I'm sorry!
Jersey Shore= TRAINWRECK No matter how hard you try, you can't help but watch it!! Whether it's Snookie.....just bein Snookie or it's Mike "The Situation" showing his abs for the millionth time... it's what I like to call "good comedy."
Jerseylicious= Girl fights what do you get when you mix a bald man who cuts hair; a crazy make-up lady, a mother-daughter managing team; a marriage/baby hungry hair stylist; a free spirit, jungle print loving make-up artist, and a BEEEEYOTCH hair stylist who hates the free spirit...even though they're the exact same person....except Beeeeeyotch has a good 60 lbs on the free spirit......The answer, my friends, is THE GATSBY SALON in Central Jersey. I would also accept, Robyn's guilty pleasure. It is true. I love Anthony and that shiny head of his. I sorta like Alexa with her crazy "glam fairy" antics and her countless "celebrity" stories. I love Gayle and Christy. Gayle is a fiery red-head who is about to become a grandmother, all thanks to Christy. I love GiGi and the fact that she puts up with her crazy boyfriend because she wants to be married and have lots and lots of babies. I LOVE OLIVIA!! Despite her nails, leopard/zebra print clothing, and overly tanned skin. She is hilarious and such a sweetheart....Now, I don't love Tracy....the Beeeeeyootch. She should be cut. I'm just saying, it's something that everyone wants to happen to her.
New Jersey has a whole culture of it's own, one I would love to explore. Thank goodness I had these shows to help me throughout my recovery...if not I would either be writing about cartoons or talk shows....barf.

I live at HoGwArTs!!

The Man 'breathing" at the Airport.....

Adventures On Airplanes Pt. 4

Hi, my name is Robyn Lynne Jeppson. I am 22 years old. I'm not a ma'am. Thank you 15 yr old boy sitting next to me for calling me ma'am while squeezing by to use the rest room. I'm not old enough to be a ma'am. Boo.

Adventures On Airplanes Pt. 3

I was waiting for my last flight, I was so so ready to just be in my hotel room and go to sleep! There weren't enough seats at the gate, so I had to sit on the floor by one of the big windows. My flight was to Portland, so there were a few hippies waiting as well. One of them came and sat by me. I was on the phone with Travis and didn't really notice him until he started stretching and breathing! He stood up and reach up to the ceiling while he would inhale, then he would bring his arms down as he exhaled! And before starting the process over he would twitch his head to the side a couple times. So weird. He did this for like 7 minutes....all the while with a silly smile on his face. I don't care if it was relaxing for him or not, it was sure stressing me out!!

Adventures on Airplanes Pt. 2

I'm pretty small. Airplanes aren't too uncomfortable for me, so I do feel bad for those who do have trouble getting comfortable when flying. My dad is one of them, if you've met Papa Large....you can just imagine the poor guy flying!! Well, my dad is also not one to complain, no matter how uncomfortable he is or if he's in pain, he's a champ no matter what! I wish that everyone were like my dad....on one of my plane rides the man sitting in front of me was really tall, but also really skinny and he was having trouble getting comfortable. Instead of quietly and discretely moving around and situating himself, he made a big fuss over every single move he made!! Good heavens!! I had my head down on my tray table and he would throw all of his weight back and jostle his seat and my head!! Really?! Is that necessary?! NO!! If that wasn't enough, he had to make noises and loud sighs with every move he made. Instead of just him being uncomfortable....he had to make everyone around him uncomfortable. What a meanie!!
