Guess Who's On Crutches!

Yup, it's me. I fell on the stairs this morning (surprise surprise) and really hurt my foot. As time passed, it felt worse, so Mom let me use a pair of wooden crutches that we own until dad can take me down to the hospital to get it checked out. This isn't exactly how I planned to start today. I thought it'd be more like me bouncing off the walls all morning in excitement because my friend who I haven't seen in a year is coming down from Minnesota to spend the weekend with me. Won't she be surprised when she get's here! I just hope it's not really hurt so we can go to the festival that my town is having this weekend. I want to see the hypnotist this year, cuz I missed him last year. I guess I'll just have to wait and see. Even if I am stuck on crutches all weekend, I'll probaly go anyway. Why let something so little ruin my fun?

My Hero

IT'S OVER! IT'S OVER! LA LA LA LA LA LA! The worst day of the year has finally passed!

So, I thought that me and the fam were going to have it pretty easy this year. WRONG!! Our neighbors went out of their way to find the biggest, loudest, most illegal fireworks they could get and lit them off at the same time we were lighting our little ground flowers and fountains. One kind that they got shot fire balls into the air and each one made a huge BOOM! Each one went on for a few minutes, causing not only my 4 year old brother to cry, but I almost did too. Big fireworks, especially LOUD ones, at a close ranges scare the crap out of me. Once they lit off their second loud one, Dad grabed the phone and called my g-ma, who let us come over and light of our dinky little fountains at 11 o'clock at night. She's my new hero! So this is my thank you to the awsomeist grandma ever! (am I allowed to say that?) Thanks for saving my fourth of july!

This title has double meaning. First is that it's fourth of July again (America's independance day for those of you who don't live here ) and it is my least favorite holiday. I mean, I'm all for the freedom thing, but whoever thought it was a good idea to give all the pyro yahoos explosives should have to live in the house next to them. Almost every year I can remember, I or someone I know almost gets their face blown off! When I was younger, my cousins and I went to go see a fireworks show one 4th of J and one of the artilery shells tiped over as it exploded and waves of colored fire came rushing at us. One of my cousins got caught between the legs so the crotch of her pants were singed and I almost got hit straight on, and would have too if Chirs (on whose lap I was sitting) hadn't rolled the chair over and out of the way. So my response to this holliday? RUN AWAY AND LOCK MYSELF IN MY ROOM TIL IT'S OVER!!


Now, the double meaning of this title is the fact that the sequal to POTC comes out in THREE SHORT DAYS!!! I have been waiting for this before they started filming it! Not only this, but Dad said that I might be able to go to the midnight premiere! That would totaly make my year! now if only I can convince mom...
