Procreation!

"You're gonna' make them fight!" Gretchen says from the top of the steps. I turn towards the family room to shied my guilty look.

"..no..." I make a be-line for the door as Gretchen starts yelling at me.

Okay, so this time I did nothing to provoke her. It was all Kayla's idea! We had to think of a cool idea for a racism project and we thought "blue or red, black or white were still all the same" and the have two blue and red betta fish fighting. You know, symbolism.

No need to call PETA though, they didn't fight at all. We (meaning Kayla, Alison and I) named the two fish Theodore (blue) and Cinnamon (red).

This is Theodore. He's blue.

This is Cinnamon. No, he's not a girl.

Mom said she didn't want two betta fish in the house, because that would mean two tanks. So I gave Theodore to Meghan, she was happy. How's he doing Meghan?

Doctor Who

Meghan, you cry during whale videos and I cry during my first ever episode of Doctor Who.

Which is here ---> Video

He's an alien and she fell in love with him. Then they decided to save the world instead of staying together. Oh, makes me tear up....

Yuck...

The past 24 hours I've eaten: (Thursday night to Friday night)

-walking taco

-peanut butter crackers

-apples

-stickers

-girl scout cookies

-more girl scout cookies

-more stickers

-whip cream with a spoon

-maggie moo's chocolate ice cream (with m&m's)

-nasty chicken cordon blue stuff Mom and Gretchen love

-green beans

I then proceded to feel gross, and after I reviewed what I had eaten I felt even worse.

Dear Group

Dear Group,

Thank you so much for helping me while I ran around the school looking for a stupid pigs tail for our presentation.

Thanks for using the time I was out of the classroom to take pictures with my laptop.

Yep, you're real winners.....

Tuck...Everlasting!

"How about Tuck?", Courtney looks at me determinedly. Sure, Tuck and (now thanks to Hannah) Emmy. Tuck and Emmy, what cute kids!

So, for those of you who aren't in my lunch, this is how it all started. I announced that I was going to name my kid Luy (LuLu for a girl, or a second boys name) because it doesn't have any broken letters in it. For example B is a broken letter because it has two holes in it and D is also an example. i is another type of broken letter. It doesn't have any holes, but it looks like somebody broke a lowercase L in half.

In the end the only vowel I can use in my kids name is U, because all of the others are broken. Then with consonants that makes it....15 and one vowel. And well, Y I consider it not a vowel, so I counted that already. There are also letters with unbroken uppercase letters. Like I and E. I can use thoes

Okay, now I'm doing the probability math in my head, and if their are no repeats, there would be 16! = 20,922,789,888,000 (plus the I and E)

That's a lot of possibilities. So, anyone have any ideas?

No Trespassing

"Man, there's been a lot of death recently.", Courtney stated, in her blunt way, this morning on the bus.

It's true, think of all the earthquakes (which Courtney also brought up) and some of my closest friends have family members dropping like flies. Yet (as Tessa cried) all I could do was freak about my sweatshirt....Meghan I think we need to check before we wear it to school just so this never happens...ever again.

Happier news: I trespassed today during sixth hour. When I told Mrs. Drew that Amanda and I probably did something illegal she just laughed and welcomed me to Cutaway Productions. oh joy.

p.s. Mikaela, LOOOOOOVE the pictures!

Necklace

"Do you wear that everyday?", Meghan asks me at lunch. I look down to see what her finger is pointing at and am pleasantly surprised to see she's pointing at my necklace.

"Yea. I got it from my aunt and this -I point at the pearl attached by a blue string- I got from Nora as a christmas present because I'm a pearl of great worth."

The silver necklace is 12 inches long (I know this because Gretchen broke it one time and the jeweler told us it was 12 inches.) and has a little charm at the end that's round with the word believe written on it. The other side of the charm has dream, but I alway wear the believe side out because I not only dream, but I believe.

Then the makeshift charm is from Nora. She gave me a little pearl on a blue string for christmas because I'm a pearl of great worth, so I cut the string short and tied it onto my necklace. It's one of my prized possessions.

Other thoughts: How will Meghan deal with no Bolgger over Spring Break? Don't tell me vote on the poll (you can chose more than one) to your right. --->
