Birds, Bees, And other lovely things....(there austin)
July 02 2007
Ok, so about those birds again. Well, as I said they have a nest on our front porch with little birds. What has happened is that now the parent birds are starting to dive bomb at Jarred, My dad, and Evan. It is the funniest thing in the world!!!!! lol...it's so awesome! They don't dive bomb at me and my mom so that is a good thing. : ) They have cute babies though.
Bees. I hate them. They annoy me so much. Jarred says that they can't kill me so I shouldn't be afraid of them. Sorry, I still don't like them and I still swing my arms around like a weirdo and yell whenever they come near me. : ) Yes, I'm kinda weird. : )
Lovely things. The beauty of nature. I love it. The sun setting is the best thing in the world. : ) I like it. Oh, and I like pizza. Vegan pizza, mind you. I made it and it was good. Too bad, I had to share. darn. I want some more. Â

I watch the mother build the nest and now I get to see the birds grow up...it's pretty awesome! I like birds. My mom doesn't. : PÂ
I want to go to sleep....well, not really but I thought I'd say that anyway. I want to eat more food. And yes I actually do want to eat more food. : ) I'm weird.

I went horseback riding. It was fun. I got annoyed but yeah. Don't say a word Grace! I'm happy. Just thought I'd let ya'll know. : )
I wasn't going to but....
May 25 2007
So, my sister brought up an interesting topic tonight on her blog and I thought I'd post about it.
Adoption. Yes, the question of what you believe about adoption. It runs through my mind sometimes. Like, I wonder what my friends think about it. I don't discuss it much but tonight I think I'm going to. :)
It's weird to think that so long ago I was put up for adoption by my birth mother. But, it's nice to think about it. The thing that bothers me the most is the fact that people just come to their own conclusions without finding out what the truth is. I mean, just because you are adopted that doesn't mean that you weren't wanted by your birth parents. That is the most stupid thing I've ever heard. If anything that shows how much love they have for you. Ya know, it's weird to even think of it differently. Lol....I'm laughing. I just thought about the first time I actually realized that i was a different color then all my friends. But, it lasted for maybe 10 seconds then i was off into something else. : ) Adoption is cool.
But, I honestly want to know your view. What do you think about adoption????

Politics
May 25 2007
: ) Don't we love politics? grrr....some people in the whole political realm are so annoying sometimes. Life would be easier if they weren't so darn stubborn. I've never really thought about it, but I'm a Republican and I've come to realize that whether I want to or not, it's kinda important to know what is going.
Here's a song that makes me smile.
Follow your Leader, John Reuben
They've got me pinned against the wall
it's political and predictable
anything you say will be exaggerated and completely blown out of proportion
ignore them if you can but I doubt you will
they're out to control how people feel by pushing their agenda on you sub-conscience
while you're unaware they start the brainwashing process
time to call out the unwilling
the ones that need to be cut deep in order to have feeling
you're not used to facing opposition
you've done all the talking now it's time to listen
I understand you want to make a difference
well you can start by sticking to your own business
you're an entertaining man trying to be a politician
stop abusing you position
Follow him
follow them
follow me
follow you
follow who,
follow your leader
do you even know what your buying into
before you follow your leader
it's the blind leading the blind
don't be so eager to follow your leader
know the truth before you try and turn me into a believer
and make me follow your leader
conservative, uptight right wing republican
last time I checked I was none of them
but that's the brush you want to paint me with taint me with
some aim to please but you aim and miss
A.D.D maybe but I can't tune you out
I would change the station but your signals too loud
and you're too proud to realize you're a moron
defend what you want whether it's right or wrong
and this applies to both sides of the equation
arrogant men in power sure are frustrating
on a pedestal you hear them ranting and raving
proudly proclaiming what they know nothing about
I hear you talking loud
but I will not allow tinsel town to show me how to live my life
sure you can sing and dance
but that don't mean that you are qualified to give America advice

Puff, The Magic Dragon
May 17 2007
ok, I heard this song and then asked my mom about it. It's kinda sad.
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called
honah lee,
Little jackie paper loved that rascal puff,
And brought him strings and sealing wax and other
fancy stuff. oh
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called
honah lee,
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called
honah lee.
Together they would travel on a boat with billowed
sail
Jackie kept a lookout perched on puffs gigantic tail,
Noble kings and princes would bow wheneer they came,
Pirate ships would lower their flag when puff roared
out his name. oh!
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called
honah lee,
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called
honah lee.
A dragon lives forever but not so little boys
Painted wings and giant rings make way for other toys.
One grey night it happened, jackie paper came no more
And puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless
roar.
His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like
rain,
Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane.
Without his life-long friend, puff could not be brave,
So puff that mighty dragon sadly slipped into his
cave. oh!
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called
honah lee,

So, I'm done with the tomatoes.... : ) By the way, did you know that when tomato juice gets in a cut it burns???? Yup, I found that out the hard way.
We have a presentation at Elizabeth's church....grrrr kid....Making us get up so early. J/k Actually, I think it should be fun. I hope!!! : P Anyways, I'm doing Carmen's part in Take You at Your Word....need I say more?? Ok, I'm almost positive that she does it a whole lot better then me. And since I didn't get a chance to practice it at our actual practice time I'm left to figure it out by myself. This should be interesting. Hopefully I won't mess it up too much...please pray for me. : )
Did I mention that I'm going to the Amish tomorrow? Yes, it is that time again. This will be our sixth or maybe seventh, I can't remember, summer going out to them. Every year we do the same thing, get the same stupid flies and the best strawberries ; )
