I am happy(Day 16)

Thanks for all your kind comments on the other post. It makes me feel better. (stews in anger) Uh, yeah.

Whales! They always manage to make me feel better. (sniff) And Nico. and Star Wars. And fish and seals.

I have a sore throat.
But I'm happy, because my cousins Caleb and Alex are coming this weekend. They're the cousins closest to my age. They're awesome! They live up in Northern California and are coming down for Christmas. They're neutral about Star Wars and Percy Jackson, but they love Adventures in Odyssey, just like I do.  Here's a transcript of a typical chat.

 me: go read percy jackson.
 Caleb: no.
 me: why not
  :P
 Caleb: no.
^
period
9:05 PM 
 Caleb: 2 busy
 me: and whne you do,
 Caleb: whine? wine? when?
9:06 PM me: and WHINE you do.
  says yoda
 Caleb: no, "and when whine, you do,"
9:07 PM The reason I don't want to read Percy Jackson is because, by your own confession, he is a seaweed brain.
 me: Reading is a discount ticket to everywhere.
9:08 PM Caleb: reading certain things is an instant turn-off anywhere.
 me: "turn off"
  ?
9:09 PM this does not fit in with my analogy
  i reject it.
 Caleb: certain things meaning Seaweed head books.
  like percy jackson
 me: Seaweed BRAIN
  BRAIN
9:10 PM ooh ooh ooh ooh
  did you hear the ads for the new album of adventures in odyssey
 Caleb: A list of all the words within brain
  rain
 me: rain?
  Bran
 Caleb: ran
  bran
  bin
 me: air
 Caleb: ban
 me: nab
 Caleb: nab
9:11 PM you stole mine!
 me: Mine was first.
 Caleb: rib
  barn
  nib
 me: ooh, barn is a good one
 Caleb: thank you, [bow], thank you
9:12 P
 
 Caleb: My mom forgot who played in the super bowl.

9:15 PM Caleb: speaking of T, did you know that the world record for centipede (video game) is 16,389,547 points?
9:16 PM I bet you didn't know that
now you are a bit smarter
you're welcome
 me: I'm not sure I knew that.
  I'm not sure I know that now.
 Caleb: I bet you didn't know that
now you are a bit smarter
you're welcome
9:17 PM me: Would you like a list of seaweeds in South Africa?
 Caleb: I'll give you two guesses.
 me: gee, thanks.
  Um....no?
 Caleb: Wow! first try!
 me: They are in kingdom Plantae!
 
 Caleb: I would never have guessed that plants are in the plant kingdom
9:19 PM me: PlantAE
  Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
 Caleb: a ae ae am aA ae arum is as is
  o s t mus tis nt
9:20 PM me: Unk?
 Caleb: Bok?
 me: Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
9:21 PM Caleb: If we must.
 me: Thank you.
9:22 PM I really appreciate it
 Caleb: now that we have agreed upon the assumed points, we may continue with the debate.
 me: Do you ever feel like a plastic bag, drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
9:23 PM Caleb: No, but I do feel like a plastic bag wanting to be turned into usable energy by a machine some Japanese guy came up with.
 me: Ah.
  Do you ever wonder where butterflies go at night?
 Caleb: Sleep?
9:24 PM me: Do you ever think that they become mosquitos?
 Caleb: umm...
  they shrink and get big noses?
9:25 PM umm lemme think ummm NO
 me: good night
  :(
  g2g to bed
  read percy jackson
9:26 PM Caleb: Bye  It would be really sad if I was sick when they came. :'(. 
A song that makes me cry....well, I love listening to sad songs, but when you listen to them too many times, they loose their effect.
Here are some that I love:




Ooh, here's my new favorite song:

three amazing--and relatively little known--psalms

So I'm reading Psalms in the Bible right now. Well, Psalms is one of the three places I read from. I'm reading the Bible all the way through and read two chapters from three places--the Old Testament, the middle of the Old Testament, and the New Testament--every day. I'm in Deuteronomy and Romans in the other sections, but in the middle I'm still right where I started from-Psalms. Cause Psalms is really really long. I was getting kind of tired of Psalms(which isn't really the right attitude to be reading the Bible in). But I realized there are some really breathtaking passages in Psalms, and I'm glad I read them. These are my three favorites: *Buck Forester on Flikr Psalm 65 This one is about God's spectacular creation. What mighty praise, O God,      belongs to you in Zion. We will fulfill our vows to you, 2       for you answer our prayers.      All of us must come to you. 3  Though we are overwhel...

Howl's Moving Castle book analysis

“I feel ill. I'm going to bed, where I may die.” ― Howl, upon having a cold. I've decided to call them "book analysis" because they're not really reviews that tell you how much I liked the book, rather,  me taking the book apart and looking at different aspects of it for my own entertainment. Read on. Also, read Howl's Moving Castle. This is the original cover of Howl's Moving Castle and I have got to say it is the UGLIEST thing I have ever seen. I like the new one much better. Ahem. First of all, I should point out that Howl's Moving Castle is a children's book. However, I like to hold all books I read to the same standard, after all, they're written by adults. I had biased expectations of Howl's Moving Castle from the start, because I kept hearing from several sources how amazing, how fantastic, how hilarious and how romantic the book was, and hearing the perfectly gorgeous soundtrack by Joe Hizazi(somethin...

Her Universe

  Before I start, let me just say this. I appreciate what Ashley Eckstein is doing. It's obvious she really cares about and is enthusiastic about her line, and she's using her position to make our days(and wardrobes, apparently) a little more cheerful. However, I don't think Her Universe is the huge movement she expects it to be. The website   talks about how female SW fans have a hard time finding merchandise designed "just for us" and the trials of having to wear either "very girly stuff" or "men's stuff in small sizes."   This post from Club Jade clearly favors and is enthusiastic of Her Universe. Vivenne's comment,(the 6th) says everything more eloquently than I ever could. "However, it’s NOT our turn. We’re NOT getting what they’ve got. I STILL don’t wear Star Wars franchise stuff because there is no way I can afford Her Universe. $30 for a TEE SHIRT? No. No no no. I’ll keep buying the $9.99 shirts for g...
