Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!
I just realized I don’t have a picture of Paula. I shall have to remedy that.
The summer after I turned twenty Paula and I drove 200 miles to my university town to look for an apartment for me. We were driving my big green ford truck, the one I drove before I got my little red king cab (baby you’re much too fast…). we had gotten about fifteen minutes out of town and Paula was looking out the window. We live in a big orcharding area and both of us come from fruit families. She said, “that’s odd, there aren’t any blossoms on those trees…” So I said, “well maybe they’re nut trees!” She paused, looked over at me scornfully and said, “NO Lara, they’re TREES!”
A decade and a half later and it’s STILL good for a belly laugh…

that is funny. I love prince.
I’m a dork though. Because I read that literally thinking “but nut trees have blossoms”…god I’m such a dork.
bahaha

HA! That would have elicited a shooting of coffee from the nose, ‘cept i’d not had my first drink yet. heheh
oh, and I’M A LUMBERJACK AND I’M OK!
lmao

go to sunday bloody sunday… so worth it.
The nut tree made me laugh and you are beautiful. I have been reading your for ages but never knew what you looked like. I’m waiting for clevage. LOL
nut trees…! twenty?…and still a silly girl! silly girls are the best!
ok, first of all, that picture of you below is SO CUTE! And secondly, I can relate to the trees thing. When I moved to MN I was weirded out by how all the trees changed color and shed their leaves, coming from WA. And then I was like “THAT’s why fall colors are orange and red and yellow!” duh moment in the extreme.
I miss Trees(!) I’m not a big fan of the damn palm trees we have around here. yuck!
Oh, Lil Dude wants to know: 1) Why your profile pic is of a skull? 2) Is the lady a “booty lady”? 3) Why does the skull appear to be her skirt?
Inquiring 6 year old minds…
