FINALLY!

I've done it I have survived the first week of 8th grade. I am in desperate need of a nap, But All in all I am in one piece. I haven't been blogging for a while because it is really hard when you have a very limited amount of time during your average day. Tomorrow, if you want to come to a very intense and most likely going to be out of control football game tomorrow. I play at Jefferson Junior High at 1:30.

I'm going to pee on the grave of your ancestors!

The other day my mother and I traveled down to the Blockbuster looking for a movie. But it wasn't just any movie it was a Jack Black movie. But it wasn't just any Jack Black movie it was a movie called(dun dun dah dah) "Be Kind, Rewind". so Jack Black gets "magnetized" trying to "stick it" to the power companies and erases all of the video tapes at a dying video store where his friend works. So, they have to remake all of the movies in the store. "Sweding" titles like;"The Lion King", "RoboCop", and my personal favorite "Ghostbusters". It wasn't the best movie, but it falls right up there with Napolean and Nacho to of the all time greatest movies. I would really recommend seeing it. It will make you happy!!!

So close, but yet so very far away

It is almost here; the homework, weird science teachers, the smell of PE, school is knocking on the door of reality. We went and registered today. It was much easier than last year. But it makes it seem alot closer. I do have a top locker this year which is very nice. And for the most part I have very excellent teachers. A very nice thing is that when school starts, football practice goes from 3 hours 6 days a week, to 2 hours 3 days a week. Last night was REALLY hard and i can barely stand today, my legs hurt so bad.

Have you been watching the Olympics; the great comeback for the Americans in the relay against the French, the badminton doubles, the ten year old Chinese gymnast. If you ask me China is just one big cheater. They take young children away from their families at age 3 to "train" them. Force tall people to marry in hopes of tall children. It is totally ridiculous. At what point does the Olympic Committee kick them out. They kicked out Iraq why not the big cheaters. Oh well.

Times in the life of Willie - by a guest blogger

Willie says he doesn't have anything to blog about so I decided to take over the reins and share some of his news with you. I guess that as his sister, I have the right to commandeer his bloggie woggie every once in a while.

Right now he is watching some crazy Japanese ninja warrior show where they are going through a wacky obstacle course.

He does have a lot more going on than that though.

Last week Will the Thrill got braces and in spite of the fact that he thinks he looks like a goober and even used the word (gasp!) "Hate" in reference to those braces and some of the people involved in the process, he seems to be settling in to the metal mouth world of teenager-dom. He can still eat, still smile, and I think that they made his voice deeper.

He also started football practice last week and even though he's really tired and missed one day of practice last week due to heat exhaustion, I think it's going well. He is the center - his number is a family favorite #75 and dad is one of the coaches and all is well - no puking and he's not last! Yes! Even if you can never find anything else to strive for...not being last is a good one.

This morning he was babysitter extraordinaire whilst I was on a LONG conference call for work. He kept the monkey entertained and did a great job soaking him with the hose, one of Elliott's favorite past-times.

We also ate chicken fingers from the Arctic Circle for lunch. I blew 13 points on two chicken fingers and about 12 french fries, but it tasted pretty good.

Peace out....
