The Goggie

My sister's 16th birthday was on Wednesday. All her life, she has wanted a pet dog, but hasn't had one. My mom said when we got a house of our own, we could get a dog. We moved to a new house and lived here for a year, still without a dog. So for her birthday, Suzie got a dog.

For some time now, she has also wanted to get a pie in the face. I made her a super amazing chocolate cream pie to throw in her face when she got home from work, but when she got home, she had a doggie, so I had to wait to throw the pie in her face. :( But it was done!

And Then...

...Rain. Now we can breath, and it's not so dry.

Fire

When I grow up and have children, I can tell my children I survived the apocalypse. Like a BOSS.

That second picture there, when I look that direction, I can usually see mountains...

It's not really the apocalypse, there are just fires all around. None too close to where I live, but it's snowing ash. And it smells dreadful.

And the pictures didn't get it very well, but it's all yellow-y outside.

Wild Parties

When invited to a birthday party, make sure you know who will be there. One must be careful not to attend parties where 'questionable things' occur.

Actually, this was just a party for six-year-olds. I was being a helper for one of the games.

Dang . . .

I missed a ShowChoir performance. With only twenty people, and specific dance formations, it's easy to tell when someone's missing. >_> I stayed home from school because I feel lame today, but today we were performing during second and third period. I hope it didn't look stupid.

Finally

I have been wanting to write and illustrate a picture book, but for weeks, I could not think of a plot of any sort.

And then I could.

But I shan't tell you.

Yes, That Moon Landing

Me: "Grandma, did you see the moon landing?"
Grandma: "What?"
Me: "The moon landing. In '69."
Grandma: "That doesn't ring a bell . . . "
Me: "Well, um, NASA got some men, and they landed on the moon..."
Grandma: "Oh, that."
