Christmas

Christmas was wonderful. I got a cell phone, yeah! , to bad we don't get service in our town, the dead zone of New York. I also got an easel so I can paint the wooden hand and the wooden man, thanks again. And a portfolio to put the pictures in. Spencer got me a book called wicked German, so more German sayings will be coming. Stephen got me winter gloves with no fingers only the thumb and a save Africa bracelet. Samantha got me nail polish and a scarf. We ate cheese danish and sticky buns, gotta love the buns. We also got a computer, hopefully I will be able to post pictures now, trust me I have a lot of pictures. Christmas with the family was fun, way to much food but it was fun, our freezer is still full of cookies, lots of cookies!

Death by Car

I've received bad unfortunate news. The little puppy that we dog sat, Cricket, has passed away. Cricket was killed by a car when she ran across the road chasing a cat. Thankfully the cat made it unharmed but he needed therapy to recover from the tragedy that he so regrettably witnessed. Cricket has already been replaced by a surprise Christmas puppy, and the family seems rather happy.

Snow, Snow, Snow!

Snow. Winter is here, it came even though I didn't want it to, and it brought with it the cold and the wet and the snow. Right at this moment it is 10 degrees out and if it gets any colder we mite as well move to the north pole and hope Santa as room for us. we would at lest be able to give him our Christmas lists, speaking of Christmas I need to go shopping. I'd still have to deal with all the snow. At least Samantha is enjoying it.

Slacker, (sorry)

When it comes to this blog I am a slacker, I don't want to be but I am. I never remember that I have a blog, well that is a little bit of an over statement, I just forget to write stuff on it, sorry. Nothing at all of interest ever happens in such a small town, so interesting things to write about are few if not any. Ok, I have one thing to write about, if it is interesting that is up to you, I want to a play called the "The Snow Queen" why it was called the Snow Queen I am still not quite sure. It started with little children I thought were brother and sister leaving there grandmothers house to play in the snow, but the devil showed up and made the little boy bad so he ran off with the snow queen to live in her palace, the little girl travel the world to find him with the help of a crow and a deer after the robber girl let her go after taking her captive, she found the boy at the palace trying to get out by spelling the word eternity with letters that moved, she cried, the devil left the boy and she helped him spell the word, then they went home to grandmother, The End. After it was over I found out the they weren't brother and sister but just friends, I think it was the little girls grandmother. I didn't get the part with the snow queen, was she bad or good ? why did she take the boy? who made her the Queen? was she working with the devil? So many unanswers questions. It was all done with really large puppets that looked weird, I know that the people worked hard to make them but they were just plan weird. This is not a play that I would recommend to anyone over the age of ten or lower. So far that is the only interesting thing that's happened all week and the week is over.

My Birthday!!!! :^)

Today is my birthday, yeah. I am 18 years old, I can bye stuff off the TV. I had my first birthday party ever, another yeah. My friend brought her Wii and we bowled, I never won but I only lossed once, it was a lot of fun.
We had chocolate cake with white icing and sprinkles. The cake on the way to my house had several problems, it was transported in a box and the box ended up on its side so we had slightly smashed birthday cake, it still tasted good.
I got a really amazingly cool camera that I haven't put down yet. My cat has been a main target, but everybody is starting to run away from me. I also got a CD from my big brother and some other random stuff from my friends, including an sucker in the shape of a snake. :)

Hamlet, whats the point?

My home school group is now studying about Hamlet, yeah for me. I though Julius Caesar was bad, but no Hamlet is worst. He is so crazy and messed up that he doesn't seem crazy anymore, you begin to think like him, scary. Polonius is the real crazy one though he is so mean to his kids, esp. Ophelia, he tells her that she can't see Hamlet anymore, but then tells her to flirt with him so he can find out what is making him crazy. All Polonius wanted was to get on the king and queens good side so they're nice to him, loser. I feel bad for Hamlet, he is the only one that seemed bothered by his fathers death and what makes it harder for him is that he knows that his uncle killed him. His mother doesn't help at all, Hamlet is so mad at her for getting married only two months after her husband died, to his uncle, and all she tells him is to get on with his life. Hamlets only true madness comes from his grief and he feels like he should do something about his uncles murderous ways. They all die in the end of the play anyway, the king, the queen, Polonius, Ophelia, hamlet's friends, Ophelia's brother, and then Hamlet, so what was the point anyway.

Cricket

We are dog sitting this week for the whole week...yeah. Cricket, the puppy, is so cute but unfortunately she pees on everything. I don't know if she is house trained at her house and just doesn't like ours. We take her out some twenty times a day and she still manages to pee on the floor four or five times, every room and every carpet, no joke. Every time she reenters the house she has to re meet everyone like its the first time, with lots of jumping, kisses, and running like a mad woman. My cats love her...not, I haven't seen Stuart in days and Newman has somewhat stopped hissing and showing his claws, he just sits and takes it now, good man. Sunflower, our dog, feels a little invaded and barks and snaps every chance she gets. Only five days left, only five days, no I love her, really.

German sayings of the week.

1. Simple converastion starter,

Das Wetter ist schrecklich.

( The weather is horrible. )

2. Sometimes telling the truth is the answer,

3. Something I'll need to say to my mom more often than not,

Kann ich mir dein Auto ausleihen?

( Can I borrow your car? )

Julius Caesar

I Went to see the play Julius Caesar . Julius Caesar was such a stupid man and didn't listen to anyone but himself, Brutus should and did kill him. I felt bad for Brutus though even after he committed murder, he has such a hard time and was a little unsure about everything, Cassius didn't help. Antony is my favorite character out of them all, he was so sneaky about he got the mob against the conspirators "But Brutus said he was ambitious and, sure he is an honorable man", good stuff. And when he said " O, pardon me thy bleeding piece of earth" I died laughing and it was a sad part in the play but I couldn't help it, and the fact that it was sad made it that much funnier. I love the argument between Brutus and Cassius that was the best scene in the whole play ( I couldn't stop laughing ) . In the end they all killed themselves ( it was so sad that I had to laugh) Shakespeare must have had a hard time ending the thing so he just kill them all, great ending really. Antony live so I was OK with everyone else dieing. If I had to summarize the whole play in one word it would be Hilarious.

Homeless Brother

My brother, Spencer has decided that he is going to become homeless. His whole goal in life is to live on the streets in boxes. My older brother Stephen went through this phase around the same age but got over it relatively quickly, but Spencer already looks homeless so more power to him. A poor homeless man noway, he is going to be a rich homeless man, befriending rich friends along the way so he can use their bathroom, shower, and crash on their couch at night. He'll be a party animal and party with his rich friends taking their money and food; what a life. I was going to help him start his career a little early after we went to the movies ( he thank us for treating him to such delightful evening, homeless people don't get to do that often) I was going to leave him in the parking-lot, but he said that it wasn't nice to take him so far away and leaving him there so he couldn't come home with us. I saw no problems with it, seeing he is homeless and has no home. I pointed out that it gets really cold here in the winter for just a box, but don't worry he'll move to California where it warm. I give him less than a week before he changes his mind.

Mothers

My Mother told me that she would only give me three minutes of humor time, meaning that she will only humor me for three minutes a day. That is the length of one song and that is what it usually is about, my mother really doesn't like my music and I really can't find out why. My music isn't bad, loud rock, whats wrong with that.

Fanny Parker ?

Fanny Parker in case you were wondering,is my bowling name, yes I bowl. Not that I'm the best bowler in the world but my scores are pretty high up there ha ha, forty's and fifty's, if only we played by golf rules. Everybody on my bowling team has a nick name, I'm not really on a Bowling team but saying I am makes me feel better, more professional. Seeing that I am in a wheel chair I got Fanny Parker- as in parking your fanny. ha ha ha.
