Dance of Soda Bubbles

Hello again my bloggy friends. I've just now escaped certain death via exploding soda bottle. lol O you laugh, but I've had it happen to me before--not that I've died I mean hehe. The first time a rather harmless looking specimen fell off the table where I was getting stuff ready for a day at the pond. It hit the floor with a BANG and somehow the top came right off the cap! True story; I laughed so hard I almost couldn't clean it all up. :D The second time the cap just popped off and hit the ceiling. I'm not actually sure if it stayed up there because I never found it. So there now, My concern is justified lols.
I do love the little bubbles though, and there is not so much I enjoy more than pouring a freshly opened bottle of soda. My favorite are the apple cider ones, but soda bubbles will do just fine for me most times.
I am pleased to report that my fridge is now stalked with food yay! ! ! ! ! You'd be this excited too if you had been half starving for almost a week ... shhhh don't tell. So now that I am properly nurished and safe from explotions, I'll try for some sleep. Not just yet of course, it is far too early for sleep now. I did manage to catch some last night, but then I think I woke up too early and so I fell asleep again in the morning and only just made it to my internship before two.
Toodles!

Getting Up To Mischief

O man, I am sooo glad we no longer use leaches for ... well anything. I just read a book where the main character had leaches put on her eye to get rid of some really bad bruising. I think I almost had a fit. I don't know if I've said before how descriptions of graphic violence doesn't much bother me to read in books unless it is on the hands. Well, same goes for the eyes, eek! But, on to my week.
Hmm, where to begin, maybe I'll work my way backwards. Well, Since technically Saturday was yesterday I can safely say absolutely nothing happened except that i read about three books. Otherwise I was sleeping. Yes, I actually slept through the whole day Saturday and hated it. Friend of mine called; most exciting thing since Friday so all in all not the best day, but ah well they can't all be grand
Friday I went to a party for One of the Main ladies who does the after school program I had been doing my internship with. It was very nice and there was quite a good number of people there. Mostly I was glad to be out of my room, since I hadn't been outside since Wednesday (shameful i know) heehee
Tuesday I went over a friends house and we made Cakeballs; a recipe I got from another blog I'm following. ... They were AMAZING! I'm so glad she thought it was a good idea to try them out too because I had been wanting to make them and trying to figure out how I was going to do it. I have only just finished mine *sigh* sad to see them go. O yes and of course I got to play with her cat before we got started. He's a very friendly cat who likes to cuddle which is fun because so do I.
I've been up to some other stuff too, but nothing really worth reporting--at least for this week anyway. So I was looking back over my posts a little bit ago and realized that I never got back about the stone clay. Well,I think it feels a little like stone in certain sculptures, but not much in others. It also breaks very easily, but I think I like it so far. I've only made one pin, but it turned out fine. At first I thought it was a bit heavy, but it turned out alright.
so, it is almost four in the morning and the sun is coming up. Of course it no longer comes through my windows this early *sad face* but it is getting lighter out. I'm going to see if I can't get some sleep before church. Wouldn't want to fall asleep in church now would I. Especially since I sit up front.
Good night my lovely friends--or more accurately good morning :D

Just a little Night Musing

It seems i am in that most peculiar of states in which I know exactly what is wrong with me, but I don't know why. That is to say that I am once again in one of my moods. I think I've already mentioned the whole being nocturnal and my theories on that. It isn't just sleeplessness anymore I don't think; I am extremely restless and unsettled. I haven't the foggiest idea why though. hmm
In happier news, I have gotten myself a bran new computer!!! He is all black and shiny and runs fast and beautifully, I am in love. I have named him Finn. I must confess that I have written a post on here with him already, but mostly I am still using Scott here for reasons slightly beyond my control. I can't wait till I'm using Finn fulltime and Scott and I can part ways. I'll have to have a final blogging with him just to say good bye. *sigh*
Tomorrow I'm thinking about bringing Eddie around and playing for people. It should be fun and maybe I can keep my mind occupied. Well, Back to my books it is then. I downloaded a bunch so I'll have something to do.
sleep well

Counting The Hours

I can't sleep and it is annoying me. I think at least every summer for the past few years now I've become nocturnal unless there was some reason for me to get up early, in which case I usually just fell asleep afterward. *sighs* Somehow I keep ending up in rooms where i don't any sunlight in the morning and I think maybe this is part of the problem. I know when I have my curtains closed from the night before, it is very hard for me to wake up and stay awake.
I like the night well enough, but there is no one to talk to and really nothing to do with my limited resources. Usually I just download lots and lots of books because I've always had trouble sleeping and this usually helps me. lately though, I've just been up all night, a book playing and not entirely holding my interest.
I had actually thought I was beginning to finally turn my sleep cycle back to rights, but I guess not. I fall asleep around 7 a.m. and have been getting up around 10. It looks like this is going to repeat for another few days so I really wish I could get some sleep. I am completely exhausted, but my body just won't give me the satisfaction of a night's rest. Also, I really hate sleeping when it is still light outside. I've always had an aversion to naps during the day, but when my body wants to sleep and there is nothing around to keep me awake ...
In the book I am reading now, the main character's love interest really started off as a complete jerk. So far he hasn't redeemed himself in my opinion, but i'm not the one he's trying to have a relationship with so I guess that doesn't Matter. Actually the only thing he said that really bothered me was that girls are supposed to like romantic novels. WHAT!!! I hate romance novels; they make me gag. The only reason I've read more than one of them is because sometimes people misfile them if the author writes in more than one genre. I've gone to the library for a good mystery and accidentally gotten a romance by the same author instead. I like to tell my brother, "well if no one dies before the next cd/tape is over, I'm going to stop reading this." lol
Well, enough about that. I suppose really all I can do is continue listening to my book and keep counting hours I must wait before it is polite to talk to people again.
Hope you are getting more sleep than I am.

Something To Pass the night

I know I know, all that about posting my fiftieth post and I haven't posted so much as a whisper since. I'll come back and tell you all about what I've been doing with myself perhaps tomorrow or later today. For now though, here's a little something I wrote up while I was listening to the rain.

She stared across the table at the man.

"You're late."
The man shrugged, signaled for a drink.

"Talk," He said.

As she outlined her terms, one hand slowly crept up the man's leg. She leaned forward, enhancing his view. His eyes suddenly widened, then he slumped.

She was long gone before they found the knife
Happy dreaming! And if you're up like me, get some sleep. :D

Weather Weather Weather

Woooo, hi there, crazy bit of weather we've been having here. We've had severe thunderstorm warnings, crazy rain and even a hurricane warning. It is June after all though, so this shouldn't be that surprising.
So I made it! This will be my fiftieth post, and I've now been blogging for a year last Wednesday. Ok, so that is a bit sad considering, but hey o well.
Friday night/Saturday morning my good friend Running Slippers and I went out to the beach and sat through the thunder storm. Yes, we really are crazy because it was freezing and we both got soaked. We also had hail; actual hail about the size of small marbles. I've never been out in hail before. It was lots and lots of fun though and I think my clothes are nearly dry by now lol.
Then on Saturday I went out to a friend's house for a Pampered Chef party. I had never heard of Pampered Chef before, but it seems to be kind of like Mary K for cooking. lol :D I didn't buy anything, but the stoneware was pretty cool. I think perhaps someday I may invest in a pizza stone hahaha! I eat pizza enough; it is the happy food of my soul. :0)
And then of course to top off the weekend this morning I went to church. Tomorrow my mom's taking me to the science museum. I can't wait! I really hope I sleep some tonight.
Alright, well that seems to be it for now,
toodles!
