My family and I went out to my favorite restaurant for my birthday dinner. It's called Gumbeaux's, and it's the best Cajun place that I know of. I wanted to try frog legs, so we ordered it as an appetizer. I picked one up, and bit into it. It tasted a lot like chicken, but you could taste the lake water in some bites. When I bit into Frogger's thigh, swamp juice shot out at me. It was odd, but something I wanted to try once. I ordered my usual Jambalaya for my main meal. It was delicious as usual. I even got free bread pudding for dessert! When it came out, the waitress and customers sang "Happy Birthday" to me.
froggy legs
The best Jambalaya I've ever had.
My lovely Grandma!
Grandpa!
After we got back, I opened my presents.
Finally! Skeleton-hand Hairclips.
My Mom said the necklace was sacrilegious. Nuh uh, lady!
Lightbulb earings!
Sassy bag
Psyched for Dead Poets
I love this movie. It's the best bildungsroman...props to you if you know what that is.
The best card
My main man, Colbert
I love my ghosty stuff.
Take the wrapper off first? No way, I'm cutting out the middle man!
I also got an itunes gift card, so I can finally buy many of the songs I want. Chameleons, I'm coming for you! And you're just one click away, Feeding Fingers! Clan of Xymox, you're mine!
Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes by the way! You guys are the shit. ;)
Ew frog legs! Ew ew! You're braver than I! And not vegetarian...Just wanted to wish you a happy birthday and a great year! Your face is really cute in the picture with Dead Poets by the way. :D
haha Unfortunately for vegetarians, Cajun food doesn't offer many options. Everything that moves ends up on your plate in this cuisine. Thank you very much, my dear! I don't try to be cute, but it occasionally happens that way. ;)
I think she said that because it has a cross on it, and I don't believe in organized religion. That doesn't mean that I can't appreciate religious imagery though.
Happy belated birthday!! You've got so many cute accessories, I love the lightbulb earrings. I've been meaning to buy america again but haven't gotten around to it. Stephen Colbert cracks me up!
Noonday Missionary Baptist Church's Cemetery is also known as "Devil's Turnaround." It is located along a little back road in Kennesaw, Georgia, and most of the graves are scattered in the woods. It is easy to miss, but some of the gravestones are visible from the road. The cemetery has graves from the 1860's. I wouldn't doubt that some of its occupants were slaves at one time. Many say the land is haunted by malevolent spirits who hurl objects and make physical contact--shoving, scratching, and even biting visitors. I could understand why any lingering spirits might be upset: These grounds have been terribly neglected. Much of the graves are broken and toppled over. Some are barely visible through the overgrowth of ivy and weeds. People also say the root of the haunting may be related to rumored cult rituals performed on the property. Located right by the cemetery are huge power lines (high voltage transmission lines). I could hear them b...
Many people may not know, but I rarely use the term, 'Ghost Hunting.' Usually I prefer to use 'Paranormal Investigating,' 'Paranormal Research,' or simply 'Investigating.' There's actually a specific reason for this. I feel that the term is inaccurate to describe how I perceive the field. The word, 'Hunting' is defined in the as "The pursuit and killing or capture of game and wild animals, regarded as sport." 'Hunting' is obviously an aggressive word, and I do not associate it with what my group and I do. 'Ghost Hunting' may accurately describe the 'investigating' style of the Ghost Adventures crew. If you have seen this program, you know what I am talking about. The team, especially Zak Bagans, are what ghost bullies would be. They aggressively confront and hunt down whatever entity may be on location. This, unfortunately, seems to be the style nowadays with many groups. This makes it that much harder fo...
I've been working in The Writing Studio at Georgia State today, when a worried student came in for some assistance. She was assigned to write an obituary for her Journalism class. This obituary was to be written about the professor of her course. I'd never heard of anyone assigning something like this (probably because it's morbid), but it's very practical to learn for Journalism. From there, I had an idea. I thought what a good tag/challenge it would be for fellow bloggers to write an obituary about themselves. (not to mention a bit of morbid fun) So, Here's the rules: Link back to whoever tagged you. Put these rules in your tag. Write an obituary about yourself (it can be as funny or as serious as you like). Write about a paragraph or two (or more if necessary) in length. You may tag up to 10 people, and be sure to link to them. Have fun, because creative writing is one of the greatest joys in life! My Obituary: Katie, age 18, perished on Septembe...

DeleteFrog legs are delicious. Glad someone tried them. I am envious of your necklace and hair clips. how is the necklace sacrilegious?
