Clarification: Joe didn't not "hack" my blog. I accidentally left myself signed in.
What can I say? Brothers make life interesting.
Randomness 1: Mom, Luke Joe and I are leaving (ideally) at 9 to go to Ohio for a speech and debate competition. This is regionals and I'm really hoping to qualify for Nationals, but if we don't I'm sure we'll still have an amazingly awesome time.
Randomness 2:We got a video camera so you can go to Joe's Blog: http://southpawinthehouse.blogspot.com for video updates.
Randomness 3: Mom, Susie and I just answered all three of the phones at the same time.
Randomness 4: Speaking of Susie, it's her birthday today! Happy Birthday Dear!
Randomness 5: Another one of my classmates is engaged. That makes 5 (I think). I'm super happy for them, but it's weird. We're all growing up so fast.
Randomness 6: Cowgirl_E is in TX. We made a grand scheme for me to go down there with them.... it sounded lovely but it was not meant to be. *sniff*
Randomness 7: This is my new favorite song from a musical:
Randomness 8: I'll be home Sunday night in time to see the last episode of Little Dorrit (my new favorite mini-series) I love Dickens, but sometimes he drives me bonkers. I have NO IDEA what's going to happen. All I gotta say is Arthur and Amy better end up together or I will be MOST DISPLEASED!
Non-Randomness 1: I promise someday soon this blog will become less random.

A Clarificatioin and Some Random Thoughts.

This Evening I Said...
Debi: Sure
Joe: Can I go too?
Since I am a very kind and benevolent sister I said: Yes.
Fast-forward about 10 minuets as Joe and I pull out of the Wal-Mart parking lot.
Me: Joe will you check the cell phone?
Joe: There's a text from Debi, it says "Come Home quickly..."
*What???*
Joe: "...Sarah B. is doing complex mathematical formulas."
*sigh of relief*
Me: "It says that?"
Joe: "Yep."
Me: "She must have said 2+2=4 or something like that."
Joe: "I don't know... it said complex."
We discuss the possibilities of the meaning of the text during the short drive home.
Me: "Hi Mom, so what's up with Sarah?"
Mom: "Sarah?"
I repeat the messages I received.
Debi: "I didn't send that, besides YOU have my cell phone."
All eyes turn to Joe.
Joe,
who is laughing
hysterically
at me.
Me: *sputters*
Susie: "You mean... you were pulling her leg??"
Mom: JOE!!!
Joe: *laughs more*
Me: *sputters more* *hits Joe with bag*
Debi:"I can NOT believe you."
Susie: "Lydia how could you be so gullible?"
Mom: "Joe how could you be so mean? Apologies!"
Me: "I'll forgive him on one condition."
Joe: *still laughing* "I'm sorry, what's the condition?"
Me: "I have to blog about this."

Clarification...
Bravo Mrs. I!!! You got it right. The italicized words were french.
"Bad news ladies and gents My Brain is now an endangered creature, it's close to extinction!! It's predators school and life are growing in numbers and are overpowering this helpless creature. Please Help!!"
As explanation, lets just say I was tired and my brain was fried, and I never wanted to see another research paper again.
Thank you all for your concern, I feel quite loved:-)
Yes, I can be a goose sometimes....

Grammar, To Being or Not to Being
Remember the English assignment from the beginning if the school year?? Well I've written more assignments since then, but nothing too interesting. Last week's chapters assignment was to write a piece supporting a subject, but completely mean to oppose it. I was to write something by meaning something else. It's an interesting venue of the written word. Although often used in sarcasm, C.S Lewis used it in his classic "The Screwtape Letters" which I am currently reading. By writing from the view of a demon, and through that trying showing evil to be good he was actually showing how sickly evil, evil really is! I'm not aspiring to be be C.S. Lewis, but when I learned this venue was to be used in my assignment I decided to enjoy it by attack a pet peeve of mine, (a pet peeve I am ashamedly guilty of..) BAD GRAMMAR!
Hey’s me is so happy your is reading this here wrote paper. I is written it to speaks to all you that good grammer ain’t worth at all the work and trouble and all that. You who wants to messy with pronouns and nouns and verbs and proper tenses. Why you worry about the difference in seen and saw? What matters is it was looked. Was were what were the problem with it if it was that a way or were that way. Past present and future make none big deal, ain’t they the same? and in that there thought whats with capitalization and punctuation all big trouble i’s say I could be ,any trouble to figure which of whole much tenses to use when you is written when you’s could just wrote what you feels like and let the reading person figure out what you’s meet hisself that’s how come i’s going to being start a club for non-grammulacerists calling
“grammer ain’t worth it none”
Care’s to join i?
“grammer ain’t worth it none” is a corperation of “spillin shud bee otlaud”

1. I LOVE leaving footprints in newly fallen snow.
2. I've worn the same pinafore constintly since I got it... 5 years ago. I wear it over what-ever outfit everyday I'm home.
3.I have a birthmark on the inside of the little toe on my right foot.
4. I like to think I'm a country girl, and love horses and all that... but the truth is the longest I've spent on a farm is 2 weeks.
5.I work at a library, and, believe it or not, a loud library, we talk and laugh. We never tell patrons to be quite, in fact they've been known to "shush" us!! "
"Marion... madame librarian"
