ok, making a new "my life" page...very scary considering i don't think i've changed the old one in like 2 years...anyway, it will take a little while to put together, but hopefully it will be better and more thought provoking (if that's possible with a page just about me) than the last one. so here it goes; a whole page dedicated to my favorite subject...me!

katie

katharine -- pure
elizabeth -- consecrated to God
(pretty, right?)

how'd i get my name (like you really care...) -- before i was born (way back in 1986), supposedly there was a mcdonald's commercial where a dad is in the pool calling to his little girl to jump in, and offers to take her to mcdonald's, so she jumps in. the whole point of this was that the little girl's name was katie, and my parents thought she was really cute, and i think they already had the name katharine, so they just decided to call me katie. so i was named after a mcdonald's commercial...how many people can say that?!?

another strange story about my name -- about 2 years ago, i was getting my hair done up for some dance, and i was waiting for my mom to come back with the roses for my hair, and some random lady came up to me and told me that i looked like either a katharine or an elizabeth...umm??? are you a psychic? it was kinda creepy.

chris

chris is my boyfriend of 9 (almost 10 now) months (are you disappointed?...that's ok, i didn't think so). we met at camp capers (were you wondering why i love camp so much?), but he lives more than 2 hours away, which really sucks sometimes. well, ok, most of the time. but really it's not that bad because it just makes me more happy to see him when i finally can, which is like every 2 or 3 weeks. but the time in between really isn't great (small tear and sad face). he's the most amazing guy i've ever met, and he knows i love him. actually i think everyone i know knows i love him, considering how much i talk about him, but they complain so much that i just have to talk about him more to annoy them...it's so easy! anyway, i'm hoping to put a link to his website here, but i can't remember it right now, so i'll figure it out and do it later.

chris...i love you!

january 13, 1986

the happiest day for all people of the modern age. not really, but it is my birthday, so it makes me very happy every year. i like presents. i really do. so you should file this subtle hint, and the date, in your head so you'll remember to buy me something pretty. also remember that my half birthday is july 13 (shame to all you who already missed it this year!). i celebrate that too, and i don't mind presents then either! but in case you were wondering, i wasn't born on friday the 13th, i was born on a monday...a very glorious monday for all of kansas city, MO, if i do say so myself (and i do).
