Rachel.

I also met a girl over the weekend who had never seen Titanic!!!!! Sara Hola's cousin. Of course, she was born years after us, and seeing as I was in the fourth grade when it came out, it's understandable. Fourth grade, Rachel. My mom covered my eyes for that one part, but she didn't cover my sister's eyes. I felt so degraded.

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na. Thanks for getting it in my head again. You know what I am going to sing for you now? The Nanny theme song. The "The Nanny" theme song, to be more grammatically correct. I will never not love that show.

She was working at a bridal shop in Flushing, Queens
Til her boyfriend kicked her out in one of those crushing scenes
What was she to do?
Where was she to go?
She was out on her fanny!!!
So over the bridge from Flushing to the Sheffields' door
She was there to sell makeup, but father saw more
She had style!
She had flair!
She was there!
That's how she became the nannyyyyyyyy
Who would have guessed that the girl we've described
Was just exactly what the doctor prescribed
Now the father finds her beguiling (watch out, CC!)
And the kids are actually smiling (such joie de vivre!)
She's the lady in red when everybody else is wearing tannnnnnnn (do do do do do do doo)
The flashy girl from Flushing (bum bum!)
The nanny named Fran! (bwoooow!)

The other day they made a Sporcle for this. Finally I could utilize my wonderful and normally useless knowledge! #affirmation

I ate some sushi for lunch today. Sushi and strawberries. I feel healthy. I mean, I ate SEAWEED. That dark green sea grass has to be healthy. I'm really enjoying being able to eat normally again. Wisdom tooth -- your attempt at killing me with carbs is OVER.

Want to know how the Lord provides for me? I was babysitting West-Eb while Kristen was at a seminar last night, right? Not much to do while he slept... so I watched episode after episode of Cake Boss. By the time Kristen returned, cake craving was overwhelming. BUT do you know what she had for me? A PIECE OF CAKE!!!! Or a brownie. Whatever, close enough. #thanksJesus It's also ironic that this paragraph followed the health paragraph. Hey, your last post had paragraphs!

So I'm very upset. I like being informed about the world. But NOW the NYTimes online is making you SUBSCRIBE to read articles, and NPR is losing its federal funding! Where am I going to get my news, Rachel?! I need to be a well-rounded citizen. Plus, how can I pray for things if I'm uninformed, hmm? Speaking of news, I read an article today about how your fav Applebee's is changing its policies after one of their locations (in Detroit, of course) served alcohol to a BABY. That's right. Instead of getting apple juice, that poor child was served a mixed drink. Parents became alarmed after he started "acting strangely". His BAC was .1 -- over the legal limit for adults. But he will be fine, don't worry. Keep it comin, Detroit. If you think about it though, how would you tell if a baby was drunk? Stumbling about, slurred speech, vomit... all normal for both a babies and drunkards.

The nanny named Fran!
