My plans as mayor and a letter to the cat...


Dear Cat,

WHERE ARE YOUR MANNERS SIR! didn't anyone tell you you can't just jump onto the table and sniff at other peoples food? your conduct makes me sick! your only redeeming quality is that you are so darn cute! and funny... and cudly...
Don't sniff at my food again!

Best regards
Lil' Miss Hungry


So I decided that since Jón Gnarr (a comedian) can be Mayor of Reykjavík... I most certainly can, and should, be mayor of Hafnarfjörður. Although I am not as popular or funny as Jón Gnarr, I am certain I have amazing and brilliant ideas for this town!
We have been having a few nice looking cruize boats at our harbour (ok, fine... ships) and the harbour could be so much more tourist friendly. I am also convinced that if it were more tourist friendly, people who live here would also enjoy it more.
The political party which was in control in 2007, when money grew on trees, decided to make the north bank of the harbour into little Soviet. They built a few apt. buildings all squished up together with the ocean in the backyard. The buildings are nice, but the area as a whole is lacking something magical and exciting!
As I was walking by there the other day I couldn't help but immagine a couple of things that would make the area so much more enjoyable.
Right in the middle of all the apt buildings there is a foundation for one more building, but due to lack of moneys they have not started on it yet... also, who would live there! Most of the other apartments are empty. So I say, take the money that would have gone into building this pile of crap and use it for making the general area more desirable. Begin by making another man made beach, yellow sand and all that jazz. Right next to the beach there is an area already being used for fishing. people just put up their fishing poles, and sit in the sun enjoying life! its wonderful! Where the foundation for the building is, I propose we put some fountains, and make an area where street artists can perform (dancers, musicians and such), people can set up booths and have a market.
The cherry on top of the icecream would be the pier. It would have a beautiful resturaunt and a paris weel. ohh how romantic!
I predict these changes would make the people in Hafnarfjörður the happiest people in the world!

Vote for Unnur!

Letters to P, Guðmundur Vignir and Body

Dear P,
please don't have a seizure! sorry I am always yelling at you...

Your D



Dear Guðmundur Vignir Þórðarson,
I saw your picture in the paper today. I find you super attractive.

xoxo
Me



Dear Body,
You must think I hate you. Especially after yesterday, I got you sunburned and totally went way over the line with my bending over while painting kids faces for the independence day celebrations. I am sorry I made your back muscles work so hard! you did a great job, and I am sorry you feel bad today!
Please get better and know I love you... inspite of your fat bum and trunky thighs... But just so you know, I think you look like a larger version Marilyn Monroes body! totally awesome!

Much love,
Unnur

I am thankful for LUNCH!!

At lunch time today I was super hungry! I went upstairs to where my brother and my nephew were working. Ususally there is some food there I can eat. But ALAS! today there was none! My newphew Danni gave me half of his hot dog with no bread but thankfully there was some ketchup and mustard. I must have thought the half a hot dog I was about to eat was bigger than it actually was because I squirted a whole lot of the ketchup and mustard on my plate. When I had finished the hot dog Danni (my nephew) pulled up a bag on Tom and Jerry crackers and cheerios... he said he didn't like the crackers so he gave them to me... I dipped them in the leftover ketchup and mustard (which sounded so good to me at the time... but now that I am neither hungry nor pregnant, it sounds gross!) He couldn't believe I just did that! so gross! we finished the crackers and went through the kitchen cabinets to see if we could find some food... we found cookie frosting... in little tubes... and Danni had some cheerios... so naturally we made tiny doughnuts! which then evolved into tiny doughnut towers. once we had finished the cheerios we found some dried/baked bread (called Bruður, its supposed to be dry...like toast...)... it was about 6 months old... but my brother Binni assured us it was fine! we also had some tuna... and the combo of those two things didn't taste too bad! but then Danni decided he wanted some frosting on top of his six month old dried/baked bread and tuna... I had to laugh at him... I mean... which is worse/weirder.... animal (tom and jerry) crackers with ketchup and mustard.. or old bruður bread with tuna and frosting?

Letters to Ash, Bed and Solitariness



Mr.Ash,
Although you made the scenery very interesting and in a way beautiful, I must say I don't miss you one bit! You hurt my lungs, and bothered my eyes. In fact, I sort of hated you!
I know, I know, hate is a strong word. But honestly, why would I love something as filthy and damaging as you, even if you make the harbour look like a magical place. It was just an illusion!
I hope you never come back!

sincerely,
Not A. Fan


Darling bed of mine,
I feel as if I have not seen you much at all lately! I tried to spend more time with you last night and this morning, but it just got me into trouble. But I don't blame you, I blame myself. You are always there when I need you but sometimes I am affraid I am just a bit too adventurous and tend to spend my nights in other places. Just know that I still love you! I can honestly say my life would suck without you and I can't wait to see you again!

Loving regards,
Sleep Deprived



Dear Solitariness,
I wish I didn't like you so much! We have been such good friends for so long, and I do enjoy your company. But I feel like it's time for us to go our seperate ways. It's not you, it's me! I have changed in the last few years. I want to experience things I am affraid I wont be able to experience if we continue our relationship. I know you will be fine without me. You have always been able to manage on your own and I am sure you will have no trouble finding someone else who is fine with being alone! It just wont be me!
I am so sorry to have to do this. Just know that some of my best memories are from times spent with you.

Much love,
Moving On

I can't help but smiiiiiiiiiile!!

One of my favorite people in the world is my friend Kim. She was my roommate at BYU and somehow she (along with my other awesome roomies) always knew how to make me laugh... even when I was extremely... not in a good mood!
I got access to her blog recently and enjoyed reading it so much that I think I might just take up her style of writing! call me a copycat... I dare you!!

but I just ran out of time... I broke a glass instead of writing my blog... and so I had to vacuum and since I vacuumed I decided to mop as well.. :)

going swimming! wish me luck!!
