Aahh... Morrissey, just once... but does licking count as

Big hugs,

referring to her as Amander Holyfield.
She's wittier than I am! I aspire to
have so quick a tongue (make a lesbian
joke and I'll kill you). However, her
mind is fading quickly, and I shall soon
be forced to take over for Amanderella
here. I believe I am the only suitable
successor; am I correct?
She's crazy. Beware!!! The woman will
kill you and your children and then
torture your spirit. I'm looking forward
to it muchly!
Oh, and by the way, I'm ALWAYS correct.
these...lessee...i met aman-duh in o-
chem my jr year. jared, our TA, said he
was from socal but he was really from
bakersfield and called
altoids, "toids". o-chem is NOT
supposed to be that fun--ditching in
the middle of TLC plating to steal
donuts from the, who was it? physics
club? and austin. and psycho-mike-o. he
really was psycho. oh man. the best
time i ever had with mandy was in SF
when we got piss drunk at the elbo room
and snuck backstage into the green room
and there was a guy in the band who
came backstage real quick and i think
we threw ice at him and he dropped his
pants and we saw his wee wee!!! LOL.
that was fun. and taking turns in the
morning to puke in the one toilet after
too many mango margaritas and tequila
shots in rosarito. and yeah, vegas
birthday was the shiiiit. i'll always
be down for blackjack. best coworker i
ever had.
she spotted me up late at night,
stealthily sneaking up and down the
decks of our ship, what I was up to...
trying to corner her and her darn
gambling ring! I learned so much from
this fiery poetess and beautiful
friend during our long, intellectual
talks. =) I love you, Amanda Bear! You
are truly something special.
skateboard with her down Boardway Blvd,
so she could scam on the
skaters...Jejeje.
age of 13. Some of you may not know
this tid bit about her... She was my
Siamese twin sister!!! See, her
forehead was connected to my right
shoulder. (I was a bit taller than her
during our youth). Nowadays, my head
rests on her shoulder when I need to
cry, cackle, or simply take a cat nap
(imagine los estiros de gatita q' hago
cuando me dispierto, hermana). One more
thing, her favorite quote from a movie
was "the donger needs food. Wait, one
more thing, for the record, I out-drank
her last Saturday. And, yes, we were
doing shots of tequila. Hellz yeah!
