BLOW IT!!!

I called Suzanne's house this week in an effort to ask a favor.

She is so amazing, of course she said yes.

I asked her to play the flute for the upcoming Primary Sacrament Meeting Program. She is going to play Families Can Be Together Forever!!

There are two things she will never blow - having her family together, and being a good friend!

She can still blow her flute next week!

Vampire Tales

I was at book group with Suzanne last week.  She even sat by me!  We were discussing one of my favorite books, The Historian by Elizabeth Kolostova.  I always love historical fiction and when a book makes me want to learn more about the history after I am finished with the story, I consider it a success.  This book made me want to find out more about Vlad Tepes and the vampire folklore surrounding this real life person.

Suzanne doesn't believe in vampires. 

I get a daily email digest from a source called, Help a Reporter Out.  Basically, you can submit items and get sources on your various topics to help you with articles.  Not long after book group a request came out asking for people that don't believe in vampires and think all this vampire stuff is bad for society. 

I thought for a second about sending the info to Suzanne so she could respond.

Then I remembered something very important that we learned about Suzanne. 

She doesn't want any fame and notoriety so her kids won't get kidnapped. 

I wonder what we should do about this blog?  It's only a matter of time before she has even more stalkers!

By Special Invitation

Invite F

I invited Suzanne to my 09-09-09 (on 09-08-09-- TONIGHT!)  party.  I really hope she comes.  She came to my 08-08-08 party last year and even won a medal!!!  She's so athletic.  Tonight it is a dance party.  I'm pretty sure she has some sweet moves from the 90's. 

I wonder what she'll be wearing?

Going once... Going twice....

Suzanne visited me in my house last week.

Immediately after leaving, I shellacked my couch to contain the awesomeness of her presence. NO ONE is allowed to sit there right now as the faint whiff of her perfume still lingers upon the cushion. (I just sit on the floor and smell... It's heavenly.) However, as I was getting up to go and do housework (I know, it seems so insignificant) I found a crumpled and used Kleenex on the floor next to the couch.

Suzanne's allergies had been acting up the entire time she graced me with her presence, and she had used several of these paper products to swipe at the drippage from her perfectly shaped pixie nose. Most she placed directly into the miracle bag she calls a purse, but this one managed to escape the confines of the leather and hid itself on the floor of my living room.

I ran for the kitchen, with all haste, to get some latex gloves. I put them on and returned to the living room where I picked up the Kleenex between the thumb and forefinger of my right hand. I looked at it in awe. Here was the DNA of Suzanne!!! (Hence the reason I needed the gloves. My own DNA would have contaminated the exquisiteness found inside this wadded up tissue!)

I am currently in quite the conundrum.

Keeping this Kleenex in an airtight presentation box holds a great appeal, for it gives me a little leverage over the other stalkers. It also reminds me that I am special to Suzanne that she would leave me such a gift, albeit unintentionally.

Whilst having the DNA of Suzanne shifts me to the #1 fan/stalker position, I must admit that an item this amazing would sell for astronomical values on such places as eBay and craigslist. (I mean, if people are willing to pay thousands of dollars for a bag that held pee for a sports athlete to fake a drug test, then obviously, Suzanne's discarded snot would be worth far more!!!)

On the other hand, were I to present such DNA evidence to a cloning machine, I would be able to have my own little Suzanne with me at all times.

What to do... What to do...

Things Suzanne Can't Live Without

My shoes.  Seriously.  Suzanne saw my new yellow shoes and she went out and bought them, too!

 Pictures 007 She got a better deal on them than I did. 

It's like she's golden or something! 

At least I had them first.*

*The picture is from my friend Deb's blog.  She actually had the shoes months ago and I copied her.

She's published!!


Check out this article in the Lincoln Journal Star!! I hope you subscribe, because I'm going out right now to buy any copies I can!!!

Lazy Stalkers.

I've been out of time for some time now and have been relying on the blog to keep me updated of Suzanne's comings and goings.  Apparently we're not very good stalkers because I have no idea what has been going on with her. 

Last I saw her she was taking pictures of me and being my stylist.  She even let me try on her jewelry.  That was awesome.  IMG_2199

This picture was taken BY SUZANNE in her VERY OWN HOUSE! 

It's pretty amazing when you think about it.

I miss her.

C'mon stalkers.  Give me an update!

Things Suzanne Can't Live Without

Beautiful toenails are important to Suzanne.  Unfortunately, she cut her toe (don't ask her to show you the cut) so she's been limping around.  At least her toenails have the perfect french manicure. 

Because I want to be like Suzanne, I'm going to wear these.

What do you think?  Almost as good as the real thing, right?

July 9th.

I saw Suzanne tonight.  We went to a dinner celebrating the birthdays of some of her other stalkers (Corinne and Jill). 

Suzanne and I were both dressed alike.  I was in my signature color (green!).

She suggested that I must have been stalking her earlier and planned my outfit.

She's on to me.

Fourth of July Parade

Okay, so everyone thought that I was standing at the end of the parade route to take pictures of my own kids and my neice comin' on down...

AS IF!!!

heehee

I completely fooled them all by stationing myself so I could capture Suzanne videotaping the parade herself. And, because I have sous-stalkers, I was able to get some really great shots of Suzanne, and she didn't even notice it was me... (GO H&K!!!) I even got a picture of fellow stalker Christy in the SAME FRAME as Suzanne... (you totally lucked out... that or I'm just a genius photog... hmmm)

So here they are, the July 4th pictures.



Suzanne's a Plucky Gal

I found out today that Suzanne and I have something in common. 

We pluck every day. 

Suzanne keeps her eyebrows nice and shapely.

I keep my beard and mustache in check.

This is why I stalk her.  She's so classy.

Things Suzanne Can't Live Without.

This will probably become an ongoing series as we delve deeper into Suzanne's psyche and discover all of the wonderful things that make her unique. 

MAC Lipstick

When Suzanne was in the hospital she always kept her lipstick close by.  She doesn't really need it, but that makes it special. She loves it so much she can't be without it.

June 30th.

Yesterday I was invited to bring my car to Suzanne's house for a car wash.  My car wasn't that dirty so I thought I'd make it a little messy so I could get my money's worth.

Move over bacon. . .

Hey, hey, hey! Guess who's leading the music at the baptism? Yep, ME!! I have been practicing non-stop in my mirror to get it just right. I can't figure out what to wear? Something from Banana for sure! Hey, Christy, maybe you could lead the left side of the room, and I could lead the right? OH, on second thought, I'm sure it will be a packed house and they'll have to move into the Chapel! We will probably need Shannon too! Now I'm even MORE nervous. . .

1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3. . ..no, with more emotion in the arm this time. . .

I drove by Suzanne's to try and catch a glimpse of her or her miracle baby-now at home where she belongs!  Instead all I saw was this welcome home message in their driveway. 

Reminder to self: Suzanne loves chalk messages in her driveway.  Keep chalk in the car at all times.

The Other Day

I've been practicing piano a lot lately.  You see, I knew that Suzanne's oldest daughter was getting baptized soon.  There aren't a lot of pianists to choose from in our ward so I thought I would be a shoe in to get the call.  Imagine my excitement when Suzanne called my house on Monday evening!  This was it! 

 

She asked to talk to my husband.

Guess who is playing piano at the baptism?

How long until her next kid turns 8?

Tuesday, June 2nd.

IMG_2067I spotted Suzanne at lunch and took this picture of her.  I wonder what she ordered? 

In other news, I heard her talking the other day about an injured bird being on her porch.  She had to call the humane society, some wildlife place, and this crazy bird lady just to get it off of her porch. 

Next time I'll remember to get her a different kind of gift.

The Offspring!

I got to see the miracle baby! I know you want to hurry over to see my eyes, that saw the baby first hand, but just wait. . .here's the story. . .tonight, after the whole Suzanne family came to dinner over at my husband's aunt's house (I know, right?!), who lives close to the hospital, I heard Suzanne utter these words. . .

"Do you want to come up and see the baby?"

Uhhhh. . . . . .YES!!!!!

So we scooted on over and got buzzed in the secret door to see the wonder baby. . .and I'm tellin' you, when Suzanne pulled back the little pink blankie from her little isolette house, I was amazed at that beautiful babe. . .tiny, perfect little babe. I even did exactly what she said, and was totally obedient and only looked (babies don't need no germies). I'm tellin' ya, someday someone is going to have a blog called Stalking Amelia. . .srsly.

Red Robin sighting


I was lucky enough to eat dinner with Suzanne last Tuesday. It was a little birthday/going away get together. Karen and Elizabeth are both moving away. Suzanne suggested Red Robin (yum!), she has great taste in eating out! She had a chicken wrap and just water. I had the california chicken burger and some fancy blueberry/pomegranate drink that cost $3.99. In my first slurp I drank up all the pomegranate juice and the rest was just like a Sprite. . .I should've just gone with the water, like Suzanne. Enough about me, and back to Suzanne, she was looking cute, as always, with her little green and yellow skirt, and her cute purse (so cute that I kind of. . .ok, totally, copied her and found one on ebay. . .but not TOTALLY copying her, mine is dark brown and hers is more of a camel yellow (see it in the picture?). Back to Suzanne again, she is a great friend to these gals. She will miss them so much. They've had some good times together. (You can check out a flash back to our Time out for Women weekend in KC back in 2007 here--but just check out the pictures, don't bother reading, it's not about Suzanne!) At dinner we chatted about houses (Karen trying to sell hers--and she did, the next day! Elizabeth packing up hers to move to Utah that weekend), and kids and food and all that good stuff. We talked about Suzanne's little Amelia, and she spoke so sweetly of her. That Amelia is one lucky little girl to have Suzanne for a Momma! I sure hope I get to stalk Suzanne again, especially at Red Robin! But without that blueberry/pomegranate drink thingy.

SHE CALLED ME!!!!!

Oh my GOSH!!!

I never knew how thrilling it would be to have the person for whom I am the crazy paparazzi contact me - instead of my waiting behind the nearest rose bush waiting for the perfect picture...

It all happened the other morning.

I was helping my mother when the phone rang. Because I ddin't hear it initially, I had the proveledge of capturing her voice on my voice mail, thereby making it available for me to listen to over... and over... and over again.

Nothing simple, just a little message asking if she could.. EGADS!!! come and visit little me in my home, or perhaps over ice cream... and confirming her child's attendance to my home weekly over the summer.

ARE YOU FERAKING KIDDING ME!!!

I don't even have to follow her around...

She will come to me...

I'm so excited!

Friday, May 22nd

I'm learning my lesson after digging through Suzanne's puke-ridden trash and then eating 3 bags of Skittles Crazy Cores.  I'm not feeling well today.  It is quite the shame, really, because I was going to have the chance to interact with Suzanne in real life!  I got in her same carpool for an outing up to the Winter Quarters Temple.  Two hours in a car with her to find out all sorts of great new things and now I'm not feeling well enough to go! 

Someone told me that's what I get for being a stalker. 

Whatever.

Wednesday May 20th.

I decided to go and see what Suzanne was up to today.  I didn't bother ringing the doorbell.  I just looked through her trash.  That girl always has the best trash!  Now that she is recycling (so environmentally conscious, that girl), I can go through her old magazines and catalogs with ease! 

While going through her regular trash, I found something a bit disturbing.  Underneath some cottage cheese-like puke, I found an empty package of Skittles.  These aren't your average ordinary Skittles.  These are something new.  How is it that Suzanne finds out about these things? 

Skittles Crazy Cores.  I couldn't tell much from the puke covered package so I had to come home and use my google powers.  Apparently these skittles have one flavor on the outside and another on the inside!  I'm not as glamorous as Suzanne and I'm sure my palate isn't as gourmet, so I'm not convinced I will like this mixing of flavors.  However, I'm willing to try it on Suzanne's recommendation.  Yes, I know she didn't *really* recommend these to me if I found out about them digging in her trash.  But, I think she knows I do it so I'm wondering if she left it near the top on purpose?

Any Monday Night.

I don't know for sure if this is what Suzanne is doing tonight.  I mean, I didn't drive by her house and look into the window.  But if I know Suzanne, chances are she's spending it with this guy.  He's the host of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette.  The 2 hour season premiere was tonight and I think Suzanne would be hard pressed to stay away from this show.

Will you accept this rose?

Sunday, May 17th.

I spotted Suzanne on Sunday.  She was looking lovely, as always.  She was at the first hour of church with her family, rocking a green top and curled hair.  I was *not* rocking a green top like I normally do.  I digress.  This blog is about Suzanne, not me.

Did you stalk Suzanne?  Where did you see her?
