blah blah blah (i have a feeling this will be a popular title.)

tell me. how many people do you know that can eat 18 otterpops in the time of 1 minute? huh? no one. thats what i thought. 18...that aint the little leagues my friend. so what else have i accomplished while im home alone for the week? well. i have found the best place for voice echoes would be a close tie between right by the garage, with the door opened, not closed. and leaning over the railing in the loft upstairs....incase anyone wanted to know. i have found out that the 39 cent burrito i was bragging about in my other blog entry (incase you get confused, that would be the one titled "numero uno...that means number one." i know there's so may to keep track of. thought id help you so you dont have to look waaaay back in the archives) well, it was a no go. that's right. sorry to dissapoint. but no eating of the 39 cent burrito! that thing was so sick looking, and no it wasnt my cooking ethics that ruined it (you only have to microwave it for 2 min to 2 1/2 min, not hard). it was just originally gross. i wont get into detail incase if someone is eating right now. for future reference, dont eat and read jennifer jollEy's blog okay? because i tell you what, gravy and soggy dog food wrapped in a tortilla is not very pleasant on the eyes. that is all im gonna say about what will now be known as "the cheap burrito incident". ALSO, while im on the subject of food, another tip from your friendly food screw up, i buy a bag of Mrs. Grass's (that right there should of been a good indicator of non edibleness) chicken noodle soup. "just add water!"...this thing makes 8 cups. i thought i was almost set for a week of dinners here. (the burrito was supposed to be the other. dang.) well i, once again, follow directions very thouroughly ("stir in 8 cups of water, bring to boil, and simmer for 18-20 min") i cut the bag and pour in its contents. what do you suppose drops into my pot of water??????noodles. dry noodles. no more, no less. i look on the back of the bag, in FINE PRINT it reads "for flavor you may add chicken". so since i had already thrown out "the cheap burrito incident" i ate bland, soggy noodles. the curly ones.
good thing i have my movies to consume many hours of this long, uneventful week. sad. if im not sitting down watching an entertainment movie, im standing up watching a workout movie. sad.
but not all hope is lost for a social life. tomorrow i babysit then go to FHE with the singles' ward.woot.sarcasm. naw, its not so bad. and thursday i have a date to go see a $2 movie at like 9:30 a.m. hahahaha. well actually jason has to call and tell him first...so i guess its not a date yet, but i thought it would be hillarious. im up for it. so i hope that pulls through. then i have institute that night which i genuinly do love. its such a good class, so i am exited about that. then friday i have another date. wow. look at me!.....actually that date is just with the frozen pizza i have been saving in the freezer. it is my last hope for a non otterpop-and-toast meal :). watch, ill take it out of the box and it will be just the toppings. fine print on the back will read "for any reasonable possibility of cooking this product will require a crust like foundation. sold seperately." perfect.

Poor, poor Jennifer. You are a hoot!!! I'm glad you have figured out the best echo spots. When I get there we can get straight to the yoodeling and not have to mess with scoping out the best spot. Way to plan ahead. As for the culinary (that means like cooking food stuff) disasters, lets just hope that any future husband prospects aren't reading this. They're probably long gone now. I'll have to introduce you to the wonderful world of ramen when I get there. They include seasoning. Have fun on all your hot dates. Wow! I'm glad you're getting hooked up with institute and YSA stuff. Hopefully they have lots of good refreshments to sustain your life. Stuff your pockets before you leave. You know that you can always call your old sis if you get REALLY board with your movie selection. I love you tons cutie and can't wait to see you THIS WEEKEND!!!

Hi Jennifer, this is Jamie's friend Jodee. I just wanted to say hi, and let you know that I think your blog is pretty fun. You are a great writer and even when at home for a week alone (sorry, that could be partially my fault, I am the one they came to visit) You can still write a pretty good post. I have to agree with Janessa, Ramen is the BEST tasting 50 cent meal you can find- Hands down! I hope your enjoying having your family back, say hi to them all for me!

I just realized I never commented on this one (I've got to keep up with the comments in order to give you the necessary positive reinforcement to keep up the blogging :) Sorry to have abandoned you in your time of need, but look on the bright side-atleast now you know which foods to definately avoid when you're really on your own. It was a good trial run. We missed you, though!

Jennifer - where's the blogging? Don't tell me you're dropping out after only two posts. You're too good to quit now. I need my weekly Jennifer laugh. More, more, more. We want more!!! Love ya!!!
