"I'll make a deal with you Grams, I will go to church with you when you say the word penis"
Hello Bloggers
I hope everyone had a PHAT-tastic weekend, I know I did. Anytime Purdue wins coupled with Notre Dame getting blown out, and IU losing to a 1AA team that's a great weekend. Purdue won 38-28 but it wasn't really that close, as in the 4th Purdue led 38-13 when starters were pulled. Incase you missed it Notre Dame got ROCKED at home it was the best moment ever! I hate Notre Dame, and I love to see them lose especially to a big ten team. IU lost a close one to Souther Illinois, and it was interesting listening to their play by play guy try to put a positive spin on losing to a 1AA team, yeah not happening. Alright enough of sports for this post. I was thinking what can I write about, because I really haven't thought of anything lately, and since I have quite a few new people coming here I thought i'd share 5 things you might not know about me. Lame, yes but I couldn't think of anything else to write about.
1. I only have 1 kidney, I believe most of you know this about me, but some of you might not. I had a kidney transplant when I was 12 yrs old(6th grade). My father was the donor and the surgery was the night before Thanksgiving, so no turkey for Phats in 89! My thanksgiving dinner consisted of ice chips yummy. My kidneys were shrinking and would eventually end up as nothing therefore were not taken out. I have a cool incision scar! I am better then ever now though so don't worry :)
2. I am incredibly scared of the following things. Fish, Snakes, and Feet. I have no idea where my fish came from or how it got started but to this day I won't go anywhere near fish. When we went to Disney I had to leave the living seas exhibit to get away from the enclosed aquariums. Snakes are just sneaky things and I want nothing to do with them. I am saying that's genetic because my dad is deathly afraid of them too. Feet, goes way back to when my dad had surgery on his toes and would chase my sister and I around the house with his feet, and they were nasty. I don't care if your feet are cute keep them away from me.
3. Most of you know I am 100% obsessed with Purdue athletics right? Well, I make my entire schedule around Purdue sports, being Football, and Basketball. I have had season tickets to football since I was 8(obviously my parents bought them then) and season basketball tickets since I was 6. I have recently dropped the basketball tickets just not enough time, I do still go to as many games as I can possibly get too with my schedule. My friends and family know that if Purdue is playing away and on tv not to call until the game is over, Nuttina will verify this. I don't care if people think it's too much or crazy they can get bent :) I missed my best friend's moms wedding because it was on the day of a Purdue game hahaha! Still paying for that one.
4. I was in my high school swing choir, and had major parts in every musical but my 8th and 10th grade years. Before you mock, swing choir was very popular at our HS, and at least 50 kids tried out almost every year for about 20 spots, it was very hard to make. Wendy, do you remember calling Katina a bitch into my lapel mic? haha! JAZZ HANDS
5. I am freakishly close to my family. I don't find it uncool and never did to do things with my family even when I was a teen. The way I was brought up it was often we would have big family get togethers at my grandma's and I guess it stuck. Although some serious strain has occured as of late with my aunt and uncle.
As always if you have any questions I will gladly answer them in the comments. Also anyone got any ideas of what I should write about?
Anyone watch the amazing race last night? I am sorry egan wasn't a fan of the ironman team, I liked her I guess but he was a jerk. My favorite teams are the Lesbian and her father, the model recoving addicts, and of course the cheerleaders! Not sure who will win yet should be a great season :)
Have a great day
Phats
PS if anyone knows what show the title of this post is from, gets extra credit. Steph you're DQ'd!

Hmmmmm that sounds like it was from Dawson's Creek, Jenn said it to her grandmom..aka Grams...I loved that show, they are now showing it as re-runs, it was when Katie Holmes was still cute and full of life, where has the time gone?
Anyways, whooohoooooo Purdue!
Love the 5 facts about you..I already knew most of them..and there is NOTHING wrong with spending time with your family..if anything, It's a wonderful thing to do. And more people should do it!=)
Sounds like you had a good sports weekend. I did OK until the effin' Cards lost to the Seachickens. You are a good egg, Phats, and I have no idea where that quote came from.
Nuttina- it was the lesbian and her DAD, he doesn't approve of her lifestyle choice
Cinderella- wow you're good! they showed the pilot yesterday since it was the last day of the WB. GO BOILERS!
Shife- I was glad Idaho won woohoo! I was rooting for the cards, not a seattle fan
egan- the closet gay dudes? I saw the openly dating boyfriends, oh wait you are talking about the model/recoving addicts aren't you?! And you called me bad for the word lesbo haha gee hello pot meet kettle ;)
I can't believe I got DQ'ed from your contest. GEEZ!!
So does this mean that UPN and WB are now officially together?? When do the Gilmore Girls come back?
steph- yes it does, it's now called the CW!! I think the 26th
egan- oh brother! boy that just drips of sarcasm!
egan- haha ay dios mio! It's just ironic is all.
egan- it's just ironic to me is all, sorry that's really all I got. believe it or not!
Jef- I am obsessed at least I admit it right? haha awesome I want to learn the banjo.
Egan- No I meant ironic not unfortunate, because it was ironic.
What are those scores from? I thought at first andy roddick's ass kicking, but that isn't right
egan- hahahahahhahahahahahahaha oh man now you're dreaming. try 6-0, 6-0, 6-0 unless you want me to play lefty then 6-1, 6-1, 6-1! ha! :)
No i just thought how ironic that two groups who are a big minority in our country were the first two eliminated is all, nothing more nothing less, and now we move on!
BTW how come you stereotype people so much?
I like to watch the amazing race, but it's not on here at the moment, I think we get it a bit later.
I'm glad that you are close to your family, so am I, well my immediate family at least.
I liked the 5 things about you!
Hiya Phats I was waiting and watching fo r the sports scores last night and the only college football one they gave was Notre Dame. Of course it was motstly about the Saints beating Green Bay. I am very close to New Orleans uumm probably about an hour away.
I missed Amazing Race. I knew it was on but I got busy and forget. I will have to catch it next time.
Do you watch Survivor? I can't remember if you do or not.
That is cool you are close to your family do things with them.
BTW one of my favorite songs Drops of Jupiter. :)
oops there is suspose to be an and between family and do. LOL :)
Egan- you did it with me, you did it with the recovering addicts and some more. Not a big deal but if you're gonna call me out, then I must call you out right? haha :)
Egan again- Why is someone saying they hate me?
Carmel- the race is one of my favorites, hope you get this one soon it started out good! :)
Beading- I am a saints fan because Brees is the QB baby! He is a former boiler that led us to the rose bowl. I love survivor, will probably write about it sooner or later
hey beading i meant to tell you, my good friend loves this song so it was for her I added it :)
egan- OH GOD I have a comment limit on my blog hahahaha :)
Egan- whatever you should know me better then that by now, I like the comments
yep, Dawson's Creek. Saw it yesterday...the very first episode. Gilmore Girls comes back Sept 26th.
GaBelle was in show choir ("jazz hands") all three years in HS and all three years in Junior HS. It's a big deal here too. She loved it and never missed a show or competition. :)
I'm with everyone else. I just happened to flip on DC when Jen was saying that to her Grams. Ha!
Can't wait for GG to come back either!!!!!!!!!! Hopefully it's not the last year, but fear it might be. :(
Haha, so I see so far you are a "good egg" and an "interesting bird." Which came first, the chicken or the ...oh nevermind bad joke :P
Just thought I'd say helloooo :)
p.s. dont come near my site, I wrote about fish!
Pissy- did you enjoy her shows and competitions? we did those too it was fun
DG- I can't wait for GG!! :) I flipped to Dawson right when she said that too and cracked up I had forgotten about that
Tina- thanks for the warning, but I wanna see what it's all about
So I suppose a foot massage is out of the question, huh?...it's not like I have 7 toes on one foot, yanno !!...I'll have you know I only have 6....so there !!!
:-P
HEY!! welcome back spy, you were missed! I relinked you
Phats, do you ever wonder if Egan actually has a job or if he just blogs all day? I think its super cool that you are close to your family. Its the ones that don't talk to their families that I kind of wonder about.
Gotta be the Simpsons?
I think it's very cool how close you are with your family. I'm very close with mine too..always have been.
Snake fear is understandable..
Foot fear is hilarious!
Those puppies must have been awfully ugly to scare you so!
haha
Boiler Up!
Go Blazers!!
Burr- Yes I wonder that all the time Burr! :) It's awesome I enjoy my family, sure we fight like all families but most of the time we get along :)
Kayla- It's actually dawson's creek, Shannon got it right. It's good to be close to family.
The feet were nasty I am not kidding! Do the blazers finally get a break, I can't believe how tough their schedule has been.
Phats, when my son was in high school he had a pirana for about 4 years....when we got him he was the size of a quarter and in 4 years he grew a lot. Fish dont really scare me but I never wanted to get my hand in the tank with the pirana!
And snakes....well they are just nasty!
Being close with your family is great. I love being with my family...they are great and we have some really good times!
I couldn't believe how Notre Dame got their ass handed to them. Angry Joyce roots for the Irish but since the Raiders lost my gloating was somewhat dampered. Congrats on Purdue's win.
Catch- I don't think I would have ever gone in the room where the pirana was kept ever. haha I can't believe he had one! ever get bit?
Fuzz- ND getting beat so badly was the highlight and will be the highlight of my year, unless somehow someway we go to south bend and do it too. Tough loss for the raiders I even picked them!
Thanks for sharing all that info. with us Phats. I feel like I know you and your kidney much better now.
I think Egan has a thing 4 U.
:o
Well, I finally get to reading blogs again today and look how MUCH I have missed right here!
Let's see . .. a little bit of catch-up--
I like the Seahawks; my boy, Shaun A is a Bama guy!
I LOVE Gilmore Girls. Ready for the season opener! (We considered naming Sydney "Lorelei," but never could quite decide on it or not. Obviously, we didn't choose it, but . ..)
There is a team on Amazing Race from Birmingham. So, I;d be rooting for them I guess. Although I missed AR the other night and I was upset about it. (I really think AR is probably the best reality show out there!)
Spiders are much worse then snakes Yikes.
Feet ?
I don't like snakes, spiders or rats.
I can imagine you are close to your family....you all have been through a lot together.
Ben- you're welcome :)
Star- I do too, and it freaks me out a tad
Cheryl- Good win for the seahawks over the improving cardinals. That is why I root for the Saints, because Drew Brees is there! he is awesome. GG is great, loralei is an awesome, I hope she ends up with chris. YOu need to watch the race!!
Mimi- Snakes give me the willy's! No thanks :) Fish phobia started at a young age, as did feet
Pixie- I don't mind spiders those are easy to kill, yes FEET! haha
Lee Ann- Rats are okeh, but I'd never want to be in an enclosed space with tons of them like on fear factor. That certainly brought us all closer that is for sure
Thanks for being cool!
Phats: we adored their shows and compeitions and never missed one! We traveled to Nashville with the group her Senior yr. They also went to D.C but I didn't get to go on that trip. She opted out of going to Europe with them (summer). I always chaparoned their retreat at Panama City Beach, Fl....that was where the choreographer was brought in and they learned all their dances for the year.
Show choir was a big deal then and still is here in Enterprise. Lots of the kids go on to Auburn and are in the show choir there~ The Auburn Singers.
That was very interesting Phats, thanks for sharing with us! I too am scared of snakes and SPIDERS! Have a good one!
Yes, I do remember mentioning that name in a mic that I thought was off. Also that same year - remember when I kicked Missy? OH that did not turn out so well!
Swing choir rocks - we were the best in the state! Woo hoo!
:-)
wow... 43 comments on one post... i'm very jealous dude!
that quote sounds so familiar- i'm thinking it was a blonde chick, and i'm pretty sure it wasn't a movie.
so- did they ever know why your kidneys weren't working?
i like to think i can sing...
and i'm exceptionally close to my family too!

Steph- thanks for not being a jackass! hahaha :)
Pissy- that's awesome they got to go on fun trips! we performed at Union station haha
NMOTB- You're welcome :)
Wendy- HAHA! I totally forgot about that, that was funny. I remember you throwing tic tacs at people following the swing choir party our freshmen year(was it that year) Remember winning cutest dance couple! we rocked man
Angel- It was jen to her grams on Dawson creek, so yes a blonde :) They just stopped functioning.
I LOVE SNAKES MAN! they aren't sneaky- they only strike if they feel threatened. my mom won't let me have one though... she likes them too- but she says we have enough animals now. and i want to be a marine biologist one day- specialising in sharks!
Damien- Just keep em away from me haha :) they scare the living piss out of me
When are you going to post something new. I have class on thursday nights and I'm so sad to be missing Grey's Anatomy. I wish I had tivo.
you forgot cats...you are afraid of cats...
I am not afraid of cats, I am simply allergic to them therefore I hate them
