chapstick. Not just for 12 year old girls.

There is a rumor out there that my Mother has a livejournal. Really. chedoen
She just has a couple of entries but this should be entertaining. (I believe she will mostly write about her music and what not) I need to make her a couple of appropriate icons. My Mother is a nice lady. She plays the organ at church, swears like a sailor, appreciates bourbon and soothing books that are filled with gardening essays. She has four children, too many pets and little patience for allergies. Say hello to the lady. (and no she will not give you the family recipe for rice pudding)

In other news I found a great coat for a little boy I am buying christmas presents for this year. And it was on sale. I now need to find the kid the DVD he wants and maybe another trinket.

Signing papers was pretty dull. (though I was distracted by the fact that our lawyer had very chapped lips) Now they are sending the papers off to the nice people at the INS and we wait. Then Mr. Jenner has to go and get finger-printed and we show some further documentation that yes indeedy we are a genuine couple and not an Andy McDowell film (you know I only liked the movie 'Green card' for the garden she had) and then then then we have an interview where they take a proper look at us and see if we are really a couple because yards of paperwork just doesn't matter enough. If all goes well we may have a green card for Mr. Jenner sometime next year. Pray hard on that one if you are so inclined.

Maybe I should make an apple and pear tart. (how very cockney)

Applied for some more crap jobs. Meh. There is a certain novelty at the moment in not having to actively deal with the public at large this holiday season.

I say hello.

the recipe

[sarahparah.livejournal.com]

I tried to winkle it out of her at the wedding. She wouldn't budge.

[gfrancie.livejournal.com]

we keep cynanide capsuls with us at all times in case people try and get it through torture.

We are that hard-core.

your mother likes C/W music?

[gfrancie.livejournal.com]

dude, my Mother adores real C/W music. Not that Faith Hill "cross-over" bullshit but serious stuff. The Loretta Lynn kind of country music about shooting someone you love and raising too many kids on nothing and your dog died kind of music.

[lightprincess89.livejournal.com]

This is a lady who wrote a country song about a chick who ends up killing her boyfriend and dumping him in a river. Mostly because mum thought it was a cool idea. heh.

[ekdogg.livejournal.com]

that is real country there - as a country as a backcountry stump fucking.

*cracks up* oh man....

Face cream

Just remember: Monticello, not Monte Carlo.

Wouldn't Andrew have done a lot of this kind of thing in order to work for Microsoft or is that just for a work-type VISA not a living in the USA VISA??

[gfrancie.livejournal.com]

He has a work visa at the moment and he was on a waiting list to get a green card through his job, but it is quicker and cheaper to do it as a marriage application. Microsoft pays for all of it so it isn't a great worry in that respect. It is just a hassle. His work visa expires anyways in about 18 months.

I have a question! I am going to send it to the email address in your user info. I hope this is okay. = ]

[gfrancie.livejournal.com]

quite alright.

If you lived in a Sitcom right now an INS agent would be knocking on your door saying "Oh I'll be living with you for a couple days. Just to make sure you're really a couple. Don't mind me."

At the very same moment your wacky next door neighbor would be suffering from short term memory loss due to the head injury he recieved in the previous episode. And thus remembers you 'cause you lived there longer, but doesn't remember your husband. Hilarity ensues.

[gfrancie.livejournal.com]

But I do live in a sitcom.

[unopeneddoor.livejournal.com]

No you do not. How do I know?

If you lived in a sitcom you would have to have wacky neighbors. I am a superlative wacky neighbor template. You know me, but we are not neighbors. Therefore you must not live in a sitcom.

That's logic.

Yeah, there's holes in that logic big enough to drive a truck through. I intend to deal with them by ignoring them.

[gfrancie.livejournal.com]

I do have wacky neighbors.

[unopeneddoor.livejournal.com]

Ah, well ok then. I'm glad someone is filling in for me.

[gfrancie.livejournal.com]

someone has to.
I have one neighbor who is working on an initiative to change the current laws regarding strip clubs so that there isn't the 4 foot rule and so we can open up more strip clubs in Seattle. He is a nice married man with two adorable kids and a really sweet wife. I like them a lot.

[pink-aster.livejournal.com]

I liked Andie McDowall's entire apartment, in the movie Green Card...as I recall.

And I laughed heartily during the scene where he was pounding on the piano keyboard, but he like...really could play.

[gfrancie.livejournal.com]

Too bad the rest of the film was sort of meh. Wait the film wasn't meh, Andie McDowall was.

[pink-aster.livejournal.com]

Yeah, she is drab. I thought the movie was kind of cute.

[gfrancie.livejournal.com]

she does that to movies.

[pink-aster.livejournal.com]

Yeah. It's like, "Move your face woman! Wrinkles are ok, really!"

[gfrancie.livejournal.com]

I keep thinking Four Weddings and a Funeral would have been better if Julia Roberts had done her part.

[teddyeddy.livejournal.com]

have you seen these bunny adds?
sooo cute

[gfrancie.livejournal.com]

oh those are cute!

[closh2.livejournal.com]

Yay for the green card! Boo for the paperwork and all that. I still think you should start the catering business, but that's just me. I'm so excited your mom has a LJ! I'll have to peek at it!

[langerdan.livejournal.com]

One of her interests is 'drinkin and cheatin'. Interesting!
