Someone is having a birthday today....

This is Amanda. She swings from strange balls.



And she sits in things much too big for her.



And she's getting married next June, and she will be such a beautiful bride:



And we have very interesting discussions. For example:

We were having computer issues due to a virus our boss downloaded, and our internet went down so we went out to the parking lot to unwind and smoke, and the conversation went like this:

"Computer Guy says the internet issue is a result of the virus” – Julie, being informative.

“It’s a backdoor Trojan…” – Amanda, in a very sinister voice.

“What??? OMG, how do you even know that phrase??” – Julie

“I saw it in a movie once” – Amanda

Serious laughter ensues to the point of crying and snorting….then….

“Oh my God!!! Somebody hit my car!!!! – Amanda

“What???? OH MY GOD!!!” – Julie, seeing the huge hole Amanda is referring to in the side of the car.

…Dramatic pause while we access the situation in horror….

“Oh wait, that’s not my car” – Amanda.

“LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL…oh my God….LOLOLOLOLOLOL…we’ve finally lost it!!!!” - Julie

But she's my friend and I love her. Even if I am old enough to be her mother, and she *is* half my size. Skinny bitch. Eat a cookie.



Happy 28th, Manda Panda. My little girl is growing up.

Great pictures, Judy. Happy birthday, Amanda. And Butler and I have our hands firmly over Bagman's mouth so he won't make some inappropriate comment about the concept of a backdoor trojan.

Screw the cookie, eat a burger or twelve!

Happy Birthday 'ball swingin' Amanda. I think that should be her new name by the way. It just flows off the tongue.

That backdoor trojan thing sounds REALLY naughty. Maybe you can get one for Amanda for her b-day!

Happy B-Day, Amanda!

I hope she has a wonderful birthday! Personally, I think she's too young to be swinging on balls that size! :-O

I love the pictures! May both of you have a great day today!

Stephanie said...

OMG that is funny shit....Happy Birthday Amanda. I have to tell you what I did once. I drive a red Suburban, went into the store, came back out, keys in hand. Walked to the red Suburban, tried my key fab, wouldn't work so I stuck the key in....Could NOT get the SOB to turn, almost broke it in the door....Finally my daughter says, "Mom is this our car?" Nope, sure wasn't, close but not mine..same color but that is all...duh

Heck, have 10 cookies, Birthday Girl!!

As for the backdoor trojan, I thought you were talking about some perverted maneuvre the computer techie was doing behind closed doors, and then I felt sick to my stomach.

She looks so sweet! It's important to have young girlfriends--they keep us young, too, eh?

EH! HAHAHAHA! I hope you saw my comment back to you. We are freakin' twins separated at birth.
