Talk about an awkward word. I haven't seen this word used yet but I bet it looks douche-baggey - no matter the context.

One day, I was acting a fool on my sister's bed while she was ironing something or other and I decided to land on all fours while I was jumping. This resulted the iron falling on the back of my right hand and staying there for at least two seconds before I jumped to the ceiling and to the floor screeching my little lungs out.

Its still kinda visible if you look hard. I also have two very fine lines next to my belly button from when I fell on a bottle when I was very young. My mom was so pissed both times, like what the hell was I doing jumping on the bed while my sister was ironing and what the hell was I doing running around like a freak in our backyard back in the motherland. This kinda makes me realize how much of a willful and stubborn little bugger I was... though it translated pretty well into adulthood (I think) I'm still sort stubborn as a mule. I totally lost where I wanted to go with this. My mom's nickname for me is "little demon" in Spanish. It sounds cuter and makes me laugh.

Kim came over yesterday. I missed her. I told her about my costume for Halloween. Not much of a costume but still... it's not something I wear everyday. Heels are involved.

And shame on me for watching The Girl Who Played With Fire before reading the book.
