THAAAAT'S MAAANDI'S SOOOOOONG!!

:D

And on that note, I recently bought Diana Wynne Jones' newest book: House of Many Ways which so happens to be a sequel to Howl's Moving Castle. Yesh, I am most excited to read it.

Four days and eight hours left

Yeah, that's right! Four days left! Four! You heard me! FOUR!!

What do you say to that huh? HUH? What do you say to that you mean old tomato! I DON'T GET TO EAT YOU! HA! Because guess what!

I finished my story. Including the epilogue! Eight notebooks! It took me five years and three months to finish it but its done!!!

(Don't ask how many pages. Even I don't know that.)

So take that! And that! Aaaaand THAT! *pokes and kicks tomato* I'm done!

And I feel exactly how I feel after finishing a really good book. Only difference is that I know what I'm going to do next. I'm going to try to get as much typed up as I can before my mission. It's a shame my lappy went haywire. . .literally. But I'll try to commandeer Chris' or the laundry computer.

I just can't believe it! I'M FINISHED! The rough/first draft is out of the way!

*Francis hopes onto desk* Jekka, now that you're finished what are you going to do next?

*traps Francis in a jar* I am going to read. I'll start typing tomorrow.

Butterfly nets and faeries

I finally bought a butterfly net. Ever since Kayleigh and I saw them at Lin's I've been wanting one for no other reason than just to have it. Well, I was at Macey's yesterday with Mummy and Chris and I saw them there on sale for 69 cents. So, after much begging and firm explanation that I want it just to have it (a perfectly good explanation in my opinion) Mummy let me get one.

I love it! When I got home, I caught Midnight with it, or tried to. She ran away before I could do it. But I caught Peej. She gave me a funny look and tried to run away, but she only got more caught in the mesh. The silly kitty. But yeah, I have a butterfly net and it's cool.

Now that I have a butterfly net, and Zoie chan kindly reminded me that today is National Fairy Day, I'll go catch meself a fairy or two. I'll let them go, don't worry. I don't want to keep a fairy indoors overnight. They turn into ugly things.

I see the confusion on some of your faces. . .read Fablehaven.

Winston, put down that Thesaurus and come fairy hunting with me. Maybe we'll end up in Neverland!

*grabs net and runs off*

Polly wanna cracker!

What does the title have to do with anything? Absolutely nothing. Really. Nothing whatsoever. I'm just sitting around in the Doldrums, not really doing anything productive. Which is the best thing for anyone to do in my opinion.

Okay so I have been somewhat productive in the thinking sense. I finished the Phantom Tollbooth. So good! People should go and read it, right now. And I also read The Foundling by Lloyd Alexander, also way good. I enjoyed all the stories, with characters I knew or didn't know so well. My favorite was Kadwyr the Rascal Crow. And now I'm going to read Brave Deeds which is a book about my Oma and Opa Braal when they were part of the Dutch Underground Resistance in Holland during WWII. So, we'll see how that goes.

Yeah yeah, I'm still writing. In fact, I should probably stop doing nothing and get out of these Doldrums to do something. Fear not, I won't think too hard. That's painful stuff.

Come Rupert! To the car! And start thinking!

*struggles with radio collar* NO! I won't be part of scientific research! No! No! Nonononononononono! Mononoke? :D

Well, Mastah tagged me, so some of you will be eager to know about my favorite authors and whatnot (see her blog) but guess what! I'M NOT TELLING YOU!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!

Why? Because I can! That's why! It's pure and simple! Tee hee!

Fraaaaancis! Oh, Francis! We must go and play with the side walk chalk! Why? Because it's fun! Let's go! *grabs goat by the horn*
