Memoirs

Memoirs, as someone put it, are slices of life. They're just a small but significant portion of the whole story. And that's what this is -- snippets of my story.

In which . . . MOOD RING!

Last night at Perkins, I was reminded of this song . . .

Mood Ring
We all know the girls that I am talking about.
Well they are time bombs and they are ticking
And the only question is when...they'll blow up!
And they'll blow up, we know that without a doubt.
Cause they're those girls, yeah, you know those girls
That let their emotions get the best of them.
GO!!!

And I've contrived some sort of a plan
To help my fellow man...

Let's get emotional girls to all wear mood rings
So we'll be tipped off to when they're ticked off
Cause we'll know just what they're thinking,
Just what they're thinking...

She's so pretty but she doesn't always act that way
Emotions swinging on the swingset almost everyday
She said to me that she's so happy it's depressing
And all I said was "Someone get that girl a mood ring!"

If it's drama you want, then look no further
They're like the Real World meets Boy Meets World meets Days of Our Lives.
And it just kills me how they get away with murder
They'll anger you then bat their eyes
Those pretty eyes that watch you sympathize
GO!!!

And I've contrived some sort of a plan
To help my fellow man...

Let's get emotional girls to all wear mood rings
So we'll be tipped off to when they're ticked off
Cause we'll know just what they're thinking,
Just what they're thinking...

She's so pretty but she doesn't always act that way
Emotions swinging on the swingset almost everyday
She said to me that she's so stressed out that it's soothing
And all I said was "Someone get that girl a mood ring!"

Cause when it's black means "watch your back" because you're probably
The last person in the world right now she wants to see
And when it's blue it means you should call her up immediatly and ask her out because she'll most likely agree
And when it's green it simply means that she is really stressed
And when it's clear it means she's completely emotionless
And that's alright I must confess

We all know the girls that I am talking about
She likes you Wednesday, but now it's Friday
And she has to wash her hair
And it just figures that we'll never figure them out
Well, first she's Jekyll and then she's Hyde...
at least she makes a lovely pair.

Mood Ring, oh Mood Ring,
oh tell me will you bring the key
To unlock this mystery?
Of girls and their emotions
Play it back in slow motion
So I may understand
The complex infrastucture known as the female mind


I was reminded of this song because Ashley had a mood ring, and she let Nikki K. try it to see what her mood was. She was blue. (That means, according to the song, that if she is asked out, she would say yes. Hm . . . ) Then I was like, "Can I try???" So I tried and it was blue for me too. (Hm . . . ) Then Andy tried it and it was blue again. Unfortunately, we don't know what the colors mean . . . We were pretty sure that blue is calm. But since we didn't know for sure, I said it must mean that we're dilusional. Ashley put the ring back on, and it turned green for a while. We don't know what that means, but someone told me that some say that it means you're horny, which is very disturbing. I like the song's definition: really stressed. Yeah. That's cooler.

Yeah . . . not much new around here. I have a speech tomorrow and I haven't even started. AHH! HELP!

    hehehe crazy fun huh? I always had mood pencils. really, since my hands are usually ice anyway, they never changed color for me. they were only dark blue. if i loaned them out though, they'd be green, sometimes red, orange and yellow.

    oh and you can so get that speech down. :) I have faith in your Lord! hehe. He'll get you through! -kb
