story time, children.

Once upon a time, a boy and his friend were biking. They were about 14 years old. I was walking down the street. "She looks weird," the boy snickered to his friend. Apparently, it was hysterical. The end.

I will not lie. I was a little rattled at first. Mostly because I wish he said that to my face. I would have punched him. And let me tell you, I could have. But then I laughed. You see, the poor boy is already going through so much. Not only is his non-existent girlfriend taller than him, but his voice is also going fluctuating more than... something that fluctuates a lot. I'm glad I made him laugh. Even if his laugh is an octave higher than my own.

In conclusion, I would not want to be a 14 year old boy. I would also not want to look "normal." So, thank you little boy. I wish great things in your future. Like legs. (Chicken legs aren't real legs, my friend.)

Close ups of my pretty awesome accessories, such as, um, a BALLOON BIB. And HIPSTER GLASSES. Need I say more?! (I think that the "uniqueness" of the balloon bib serves as a pleasant contrast to the generic hipster glasses and, therefore, I CAN BE FORGIVEN.)

Oh, and since I'm so hipsterish - y'know, hipster glasses wearer, indie music listener, er, political ranter (?!) - I thought it'd only be appropriate to pay a proper homage to my other dear hipsters via hipsters have to pee pose. America's Next Top Hipster? Duh.

Sibling. OH HEY. Sibling's feeling a little self conscious about writing a guest post, so can some of y'all PLEASE give her comforting advice. Tell her she's funny. Or something. She's afraid she won't match my wits. But let's be frank, NO ONE IS AS WITTY AS ME. Except for, you know, every other person... but that'll be our little secret. SHUSH. In conclusion, can I get a "Let's go Sibling, let's go!"?! Boo yeah.

We're so cute. Don't you just want to squish our cheeks? Please don't answer that.

Future?
For the record, I've never watched Jersey Shore. Probably why I spelled "Snooki" wrong. But it's NOT MY FAULT SHE CAME UP WHEN I GOOGLED "SNOOKIE," CONSEQUENTLY CAUSING ME TO THINK THAT SNOOKIE WAS HER NAME. So, SHBAM! Blame Google. What does it know, anyhow?
future?

I think "FML" would be a suitable caption, but I hate when people say that. I'll just leave at... Go life!

Hands and Laserz.
It'd be SO MUCH FUN if we could shoot lasers from our hands. It'd be like LASER QUEST24/7. (I love Laser Quest SO MUCH that I dress in black and sweat! ... I probably shouldn't have shared that... Um, it was... a joke! Yes. I don't actually wearing black and sweat, pfffffshhhhh.)

Climbing trees proved to be a very, er, unique experience. But it's okay... it's not like STUPID BOYS HIT ME WITH A BALL OR ANYTHING. Like, it's not like they had TERRIBLE AIM OR ANYTHING. Oh no, that CERTAINLY DIDN'T HAPPEN. (In case you didn't catch on, YEAH THAT DID HAPPEN.) It secretly pleasured me that Daisy continuously intercepted their game by attempting to catch their ball. Oh, don't blame me... BLAME KARMA. b1tch3zzz.

Necklace. I like it. It looks similar to a bracelet that I may or may not be giving away. OH SNAP YOU CAUGHT ME. I AM giving away a bracelet! Ohhhh, youuu! (read in a flirting, uplift-y banter)(enter giveaway?!) (Putting it in brackets makes me seem "chill" and "nonchalant" and "cool.")

Oh, and two posts ago, I posted two truths and a lie. Which read as:
1) Lexy finger nails currently have happy faces on them.
2) Lexy's favourite vegetable is peas.
3) Lexy obsesses over Sims 3. It's not healthy.
An overwhelming percentage of y'all (being 100% - YEAH THAT'S RIGHT, I'm talking about ALL OF YOU), thought the lie was 2. And you know what? I thought you knew me. I really did. You all should have known that I happen to LOVE PEAS. You can read it between the lines. NO YOU CAN'T. But hey, now you know! I love peas. And I have happy faces on my nails. And I've never played Sims 3. Ever. NOW YOU KNOW. So if that comes up in your conversation (i.e. "Hey, did you hear that Lexy from Quirky Explosion may like peas?"), you can now continue the conversation seamlessly (i.e. "But of course she does, it's her favourite veggie!) It's okay. I FORGIVE YOU. Now go out there, and make me proud, you conversationalists!

Dear Peas,
Despite the hating that you may have had to endured on this blog, I still love you oh, so very much. Your roundness mimics my face shape, and therefore I think we can relate to one another. I can also lift you tenderly when I am in a cloud of joy. Or stab your guts out with a fork when I am in a state of anger. And count how many of you I can stab in more fork at a time whilst enduring boring adult dinners and grown up-y things. You were also on an episode of Arthur and he is my hero. You are my hero.
Love,
Lexy
