His name is Detrix!! Sorry, I'm so happy about it and the name suits him very well. I have Keora to thank for the idea!!!! Thank you Keora!! xd Oh and I'm writing more today....I've finished up on all the stuff I've typed and so I've got to type some more out of my notebook stare . I don't know if I'll have the time tonight, because I'm looking up this new type of music called Japanese Rock. I don't know much about it, but supanova suggested I try it. If anyone has some good band suggestions, do tell, because I'm sorta lost confused . I'll type some more later, possibly on Alan's new laptop .... if possible, because he kind of trusts me with it (since I set the whole thing up for him, but he doesn't look at it that way) and the family computer will most likely be full. I'll type as much as I can tonight, if not, tomorrow. And I've got twenty bucks!!!!I'm not totally poor at the moment!!!! I just got paid for a day of baby sitting, so I'm quite happy...I did have twenty-five dollars, but I kind of couldn't pass up a few records at a garage sale on the way home. Our record player is going to work this summer, I am going to get it to work (with the help of my dad), but either way it's going to work!!! and I'm gonna listen to the records I've collected over the past five years and yet have never been able to listen to!!! Wow surprise, surprise...anyways I found a Beatles album for a dollar at this garage sale and I'm gonna listen to it!! even though I kind of have it on CD already sweatdrop . I want to listen to it on our old phonograph if we can find the right parts to get it to run.

I have made some jewelry as well. I find them as alright, but their not my best I must say. I've got to get some wire and a new batch of beads so that they look really great!! See, Walmart does come in handy when you've only got twenty bucks!! I have the rock tumbler running on some "beach glass".....I did find the glass on Wildwood's beach, but they're still sharp and not at all like Lake Erie's. They will be much more wearable after about 4 days running in the tumbler. I've also got to pick up some more clear enamel for the shells to be a little stronger. I've run out on the last of mine, since the girls have used it all up as nail polish stressed .

Sometime before September we plan to visit DuBois, PA about some land we need to look at. Most of the land was previously owned by my crazy great-uncle George. The one who stole silverware from the Bonanza restaurant and also picked the bones out of his died toes in front of a friend after he was diagnosed with diabetes (You've heard the stories before, Lydia), and you really can't make these stories up. He's so crazy that I know he's related to me!! My dad inherited the land along with some other relatives, because George never married. Anyways, the land's got to be sold before the state takes it and I've got to look in the local historical societies and show them some hundred year old negatives of the old farmstead xd they can ohh and ahh all they want I'll never sell them!! I've got to get some more information on my ancestors from the town and the viewing of the negatives should bribe them into realizing that I'm not some ignorant kid taking up their time with stupid questions. They might actually tell me something I don't know about them and so I'm really excited!!

What else to say.....hmmm Tinkerbelle movie is coming out sometime (not as soon as I want). Don't hate me for loving childish movies, Lydia, I must see it. I'm thinking about getting rid of my old Nancy Drew novels. They're taking up space on my shelves and I don't even read them anymore. I'm definitely saving the super old copies that I picked up at a sale someplace... I mean they could be worth more later. If any younger siblings are interested (mine are not) you can have them... mrgreen
