Even MORE of the Wizard of Oz, plus the obvious is stated

We're actually getting somewhere Wizard-of-Oz wise! Here is some news:


  • Some of the taller flowers are going to double as trees.
  • The trees are going to be stagehands, too. As far as I know, we just really quickly move the props around when the scenes change. All of the props are going to be on wheels, so we don't have to take twenty minutes to change scenes. 
  • There are 10 performances. 
  • We have dedicated about 9 hours, 15 minutes to the play so far. 

Stating the obvious, nothing works, my feet are freezing, and it's 40 degrees outside! The thing that doesn't work of the day is the E-mail thingy! It's stubborn and won't send anything. Not my fault if you receive my replies this time a century from now.

Corrections! Corrections!

For One, apparently Bandito Chinchilla is English. Hm.
For Two, I am too tall to be a flower.So, I am going to be either a tree or a lady-in-waiting. Jacob is still a Kalidah. Kalidahflower!

First practice is on the 27th, according to the calendar! So far, we have dedicated... approximately 5 hours and 30 minutes to the play. Or was it 6?

It's Freezing & The Internet Is Slow! What else is new?

Well, for one it snowed about a half inch of snow. I got a bowlful of it and Mom made snow cream. It's tasty and VERY FREAKING COLD!!!!!!!!!!! My tongue is numb.

Jacob's Song:

I have no idea, and I really don't care.

Encore!

According to the weather, it's not going to get above freezing for a long time.

What everybody in the house is doing right now:
Jacob: "You're making me angsty by using the Internet. Give me the internet now, or I shall dump a bucket of freezing water I got from outside over your head."
Ben: Eating snow cream.
Mom: playing Animal Crossing: City Folk because today is the Festivale in which a peacock that dances named Pave (pah-vay) asks you to gather candy from the villagers by playing games with them and then you trade the candy for Pave furniture.
Me: blogging and loading LOLcats at the same time. According to the T-shirt of the week, a balanced breakfast consists of pancakes, pancakes, and waffles.

Continual Randomness!

Here is something I did with a plastic loom and some nylon loops.


6 red loops, 9 white loops, 9 black loops and weave them together in the CENTER of the loom or else you get this:

Which also works as a hat for Slowpoke.

Usdom Inc.

A few weeks ago my friend Emily and I wrote a letter to the Topco company from my house, complaining about their juice pouches they make and how hard it is to get the straws into them. Emily had the bright idea to, instead of having the return address be to Chandler, to have the name be Usdom Incorporations.

They took it.

They sent a reply and two 2$ coupons for any Topco product.
