You know you are Cori Buchholz when:

• you continually run into the same wall at your house even though you know it's there.
• every time your mother-in-law calls, she says "Hi Jess and Cori and Jack and Sally and Wonton. It's (in a deep voice) Mummy!" And then she incessantly apologizes for something that didn't even remotely offend you. EVERY time.
• your dish rack not only contains baking dishes but toy zombies.
• despite the fact that your legs are falling asleep, you refuse to move the cat from your lap because he's/she's comfortable.
• you have a whole shed full of Halloween decorations.
• every time you see a dog, you yell "PUPPY!"
• your husband caught you dancing like an idiot once and repeatedly laughs at you for it.
• none of your clothes are really that flattering, especially your "office" clothes, because of your giant knockers.
• your cousin and aunt constantly mock you for something that happened 10 years ago.
• you own more yarn than clothes.
• your cross stitching has curse words.
• this is your uncle and father (from left to right):
  

Amazingly enough, I haven't had any coffee today

Oh dear god, why do I do this to myself?
Why can't I stop goofing off and just get some work done? I know I am soooooooo behind, but I continue to procrastinate. I'm stupid.
I blame it on the corporate world.
The corporate world (which I am currently employed under) is trying to suck out my soul. It is an evil being trying to rid me of all my uniqueness and craftiness. How dare they not let me knit at work! It's an outrage, I tell you! An Out-Rage!
I'm in a weird mood today.
And, no! Mr. Jerkface, you can NOT talk to our president because you've been rather rude to me EVERY time you call. I can't make these guys call you. I really have no power whatsoever. Just deal with the fact that you aren't the most important person in the world. I know it's a shock, but, suck it!
I really need a puppy. I don't know if I can wait till we get our fence fixed. I either need a puppy or a kid. Or both. *sigh*
Ok, I better go now. I just thought I would write a little since it's been almost 6 months since I last wrote. Oops!! But a lot can happen in a short period of time. You know, like, getting married, buying a house, having a sinus infection for almost a month, etc. It's exhausting.
Hopefully I'll write again soon (not in another 6 months).
Au revoir!
***UPDATE***
Ok, I realize it has not been 6 months. More like 3. But give me a break. All I hear all day long is people talking about oil rigs and well fracs. My brain is mush.

We got hitched!! Part Two: Mad Tea Party

Sorry! It took me awhile to get to part two because I've been gathering (and waiting on) photos from everyone. I'm sure I'll get more even after I post this :) Thank you everyone who gave me pictures! I love them!
Anyway, back to the story.
One day Malachi was sitting in his backyard when suddenly, the Mad Hatter appeared He demanded a tea party He decided to show off his new socks and nifty shoesHe poured some tea for little Malachi Such an adorable little guy :) Malachi was wondering, "Who is this Mad Hatter? He looks really familiar." When his grandma and grandpa showed up and and started hugging the strange man in the top hat, he realized "Oh, I know that guy! That's Uncle Jesse! He's here to play with me! I hope Cori comes to play too."
Soon, lots of other people started showing up. Some he had seen before and some new faces. Everyone looked very nice. "What is going on?" he wondered.
"Hmm...there's cousin Drew, Viet, Daddy (Paul), and Uncle Tyler"Has everyone come here to play with me?"
Finally, things got quiet and Grandma (Beth) and Grandpa (Tony) came out of the house with Uncle Jesse between them and they walked to the gazebo where Jesse's friend Dustin stood waiting Next came Rachel and Uncle TylerThen Mommy (Melissa) and Daddy (Paul) brought Malachi to the gazebo. The sun was in his face, but he was having fun playing with Mommy's flowersAfter them came Brian (Cori's brother) and cousin KateNext was cousin Caroline and cousin Drew Then came Valerie and Warren Kellie came out with rings attached to her flowersNext, Viet came out and starting throwing flower petals. He was trying to throw them at the people watching, but he couldn't reach them. Silly Viet Cori's Mom (Gwen) and Dad (Gary) came out with a lady covered in lace. "Is that Cori?" he wonderedWhen everyone made it to the gazebo, Dustin started talking Then he read to everyone from a kid's book called "I Like You" by Sandol Stoddard Warburg Malachi thought it was a pretty good story.
Then Uncle Jesse and the lady gave eachother rings. They said things like promising to always make eachother laugh and that Uncle Jesse promised he would get the lady a dog as soon as they got a house. Finally, Dustin said something about them "successfully tying the knot," but Malachi hadn't seen them tie any knot. He told them to kiss and Uncle Jesse took off the lady's lacy hat thing. "It is Cori!!" thought Malachi Then they kissed. Ew! "Oh! I get it now," Malachi exclaimed. "Uncle Jesse and Cori got married! I have a new Aunt! Yay!"Everyone was so happy that they started hugging Uncle Jesse and Aunt CoriThey looked so happyMore and more people started showing up and the kept bringing more and more foodUncle Jesse brought some of his homemade "tea" in bottles. The adults really liked it, but the kids weren't allowed to drink itThere were a lot of silly people playing dress up and looking into the magic "looking glass" Malachi got his picture taken with his Uncle Jesse and his new Aunt Cori Everyone was having a great time! Suddenly, out of nowhere, the White Rabbit appearedApparently, he is good friends with the Mad Hatter Shortly after that, Malachi had to go with his Aunt Marion because it was his bedtime. So that is where his story ends. But I can tell the rest of the story.
It started getting dark so the candles and paper lanterns were litMusic was playing and people started dancing

Then the White Rabbit came back Everyone was having such a great timeThen all of a sudden, something came out of the shadows Look out behind you, Teri! Zombies have invaded the reception! But it was ok. They turned out to be friendly zombies! Everyone danced the night away, even the zombies. It was a very interesting tea party, definitely, but it is one that no one will ever forget
The End
