I had quite the eventful week last we. I had a job interview, and I got to go home and hang out with my brother and my sister Bethany. Some of the highlights of my trip home include: watching pride and prejudice at three in the morning with Brandt, attending the Emery High Drama classes film festival, going to the fish and wildlife banquet, going to see The Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, and shopping with Bethany. Also this weekend my family and Brandt's business partner were present for what will forever be remembered as the nerdiest moment in the history of my life. Many of you may think, "you can't get much nerdier" to which I say, "oh but I can."
The story goes like this: we were all sitting around reminiscing about the restaurant scene in Castle Dale. Bethany said, "Hey Brandt do you remember how the kids who worked at the cafe used to trade food with the pizza place? They'd call up and be like, 'hey we'll trade you two malibu chickens for a calzone.'"
We all laughed and I said before I could stop myself, "O my gosh, it's like freakin' Caddie Woodlawn trading her lunch to the indian kids for...." It was at that point that I had to stop myslef from finishing that sentance as I had just realized how nerdy that statement really was, plus most of the people present weere giving me the, "what the hell are you talking about?" look. We all busted up laughing and I had to acknowledge it as the official nerdiest moment of my life. I remember someone said,"I don't even know what that's from."
So, to vindicate myself to a small extent; Caddie Woodlawn is a book written in the 1930's about a young tomboy growing up in Wisconsin in the 1860's which my second grade teacher read to my class when I was eight. It was turned into a film which I watched about a billion times. So there you go.
