My Name is Kylee

My name is Kylee. Only a few people are able to get this right on the spot though, so let me help you. My name is spelled K Y L E E. Pronouced KKKiiiiiiiilllllleeeeeeeeeee! Please notice the absence of an a. My name is not Kaylee. No a. Look one more time, there's still no a. I once had an art teacher who told me that since my name ends in two ee's that my name is Kaylee. Even though there is no a. He would not stop arguing with me. He thought he was right. I instantly lost all respect from him and didn't care when he gave me my first C in middle school. The sound of Daughtry automatically makes me angry because that's what he always played in his class.

I've pretty much given up on correcting people on my name though. I have three co-workers who I see quite often who always call me Kaylee and I don't correct them. I didn't bother to the first time they said my name wrong and now I don't want to embarrass them or come off rude. It's not really a big deal actually. Sorry if the previous paragraph makes it seem like it is, I just have some repressed anger towards said teacher.

My favorite thing is fitting rooms when the people ask you for your name and write it on the door. Yesterday my name went from Hilee to Kaleigh to Kalin in a few short minutes. I just nodded my head and responded. It's quite funny, especially when one employee is trying to 'correct' another one on my name.

I would like to take this moment to thank my dad and aunt Jerusha who shall forever be upset that I was born three days too late for convincing my mom that my name should be spelled with two ee's instead of ie. I like it so much better that way. Once upon a rare occasion that there were two Kylee's in my class I was referred to as Kylee ee while the other was Kylie ie. I love my name. It's Kylee. The end.

  1. When people at a restaurant or in a dressing room, or wherever, ask for my name I always tell them "Janet." Cause who knows how to spell Jeanette!

Say Yes?

Well. Today I went dress shopping. And it was a really fun experience! I went a few weeks ago, and that wasn't as fun. I almost fainted because everything was so tight! And I looked like a little girl playing dress up. This time though, I felt sophisticated, it was a much better experience, and I may have found THE dress. I know it's one of these ones, but at the store I thought I was going to get one dress. But as I got home and looked through the pictures again, I think another one will work better and is really THE one. I'm going to sit on it though.  I thought it'd be fun to put the pictures up here and let you all see! Tell me which dress is your favorite! If there's two pictures together, it's the front and back.  How was dress shopping for you?  I like the lace and buttons on this dress     Love the top and flowyness of this dress. Really love the neck, top, and ruching on this dress. Not sure about the train though. This...

Book of Mormon Musical?

Well, it's here in Denver. Kind of hard not to notice it with all the signs. The Book of Mormon Musical. I have very mixed feeling about this. I know that in the grand scheme of the universe, this musical shouldn't bother me so much. But it really, really does. The Book of Mormon is something very near and dear to my heart. And I know that people make fun of the LDS church on an hourly basis. I've heard all the jokes. Not a big deal. Plus, I'm blonde. I can take a joke. But this musical really disturbs me. I listened to the songs when they were released, thinking oh, I'm gonna be one of those cool people who fights for this play. But then I really started listening to the words. And they bothered me. A lot. Saying that missionaries who are out in the field make up things on the spot, like having sex with frogs will get rid of aids, it bugged me. I don't even want to talk about some of the other songs. I heard them and felt, just not right. I was comforted by t...
I'm not going to waste time talking about why I have a blog or how this is my first new blog post, because I like to have faith in the human race and the fact that they can read and can interpret these things on there own. I mean, there aren't any posts under this one so obviously this is my first new post. And having a blog is not a mandatory thing to live so one could hypothetically conclude that this is for fun. That is hypothetically speaking of course. I just used 89 words explaining why I didn't need to explain something. I hope I counted that right. Anyways.  Three years ago today on a rainy day I remember being in a basement with a bunch of little people and adults for a scout thing. And I remember them talking about how a certain friend of mine was going to be a senior and how that's so crazy. I was just going to be a freshman at the time and thought I was the coolest thing since duct tape. (Sorry sliced bread, duct tape is waay cooler.) Now that friend is get...
