If you're going to eat a brownie, eat it cold

And if your going to eat a frozen burrito, make sure you heat it up all the way.
Sometimes I sing to my dog, okay? It happens.
Fine, when I'm home alone I sing pretty much everything.
And I sometimes dance, too.
Yeah, all this snow was cool... at first. Now it just kind of sucks.
That is also how I feel about my orange glasses.
And several TV shows.
And black olives.
But not crunchy peanut butter!
Kids, listen up: crunchy peanut butter IS better.
And now teenage girls: If you're driving in bad weather, and your breaks aren't working... DOWN SHIFT.
It really works.
As does hairspray if you are trying to remove permanent marker from plastic.
Sometimes, I really just wish I was Zooey Deschanel, like... really bad.
It's like, how weird is The Bachelor, right? <3 it.
And garden salsa sunchips are pretty much the best thing that has ever happened to the world.
This just happened:
Mom: Will you please walk Zoe?
Brother: Mom! I just ran 2 miles on the tredmill!
Mom: Son...
Brother: Okay fine, 1.5 miles, you caught me.
I love my family.
Idk why I left their names undisclosed.
And the green smarties ARE the best. Despite all you naysayers who claim they all taste the same.
Girls cry SO much. Like, holy cow.
Anyone else out there love the taste of NyQuil? No? Just me?
This post has taken me longer than any other to write. jsyk.
Now off to bed I go!

I love you all.

Maybe?

Hey, it's only January, and this is crazy, but I love summer, so be June, maybe?

Thanks.

I can't stop watching How I Met Your Mother. I've watched every episode at least 3 times in the past 2 months (wow, that's embarrassing).

In honor of MLK, I give you my dream. Except, like, a literal dream... about Martin Luther King Jr. I took a 4 hour nap today, and I do my best dreaming while I'm napping. So, I was going to a missionary farewell, and a whole bunch of my friends showed up at my house because they need directions to the farewell (the dream could have ended right there and been pretty funny). My friends were all waiting in the drive way for me to get ready (which was taking me forever - I had a lot of cute shoes to choose between). While I was getting ready, my dad made all of my friends come inside so he could lecture them about MLK. When I was finally ready, I went into the living room where my dad was lecturing, and cheered him on while wearing my MLK t-shirt and an emerald green skirt with blue and white stripey shoes. It was cool.

Also, I should probably delete my budgeting post because I suck at budgeting. Like, I truly suck at it.
And one of my second graders told me I was his Valentine today. Adorable. And that is why I love my job.

This is quite possibly the only time I will ever say anything about politics, so pay attention. Nah, just kidding, you don't have to pay attention. You can actually skip this if you want (that's what I would do if I was reading someone's blog and they started talking about politics). Okay, enough of that. So, I work with 2nd graders at an elementary school, and the other day we were learning about Martin Luther King Jr. For the activity, the students were instructed to write down their dreams for the future - just like MLK did in his I Have a Dream speech. While they were doing this, one little girl in my class came up to me, and asked me how to spell Obama. On her paper, one of her dreams was "No Obama". It blew my mind. She's 7 years old, she doesn't know anything about politics, or Obama. I couldn't believe it. It was like her mom was standing in the room telling her what to dream about for the future. It was crazy. And it is my firm belief that you should respect the President of the United States no matter who he is or what party he is affiliated with. That is the only political view I have.

And I got a twitter @ali_hancey. Just in case you are interested. And I promise I'll never talk about politics.

Adios amigos.
