I'm writing because Amanda told me I have to.  No, actually I haven't written in awhile, so I will (not that anyone is interested!)  Um...where did I leave off...Wednesday.  Well Thursday I woke up early and drove my mom to work.  Then...off to play tennis with Jess.  (I am horrible at tennis by the way!)  Then we swung on the swings (because swings are great!)  Then I picked up other Jess and we went to New Hope.  It was some good fun until I had to drive home on those curvy country roads in the rain! But I survived...didn't run over any pedestrians or squirrels. Then I went to work (big surprise!) Friday...hm...Friday I took my grandma grocery shopping (good fun guys!!).  Then I came home...my dad made me help him around the house (which is what i usually have to do when he's home...) and then i ...went to work (another big surprise) .  Saturday I worked....all day.  And it was crazy with everyone shopping for easter.  And I had some lady come up to me.  She was like, "Wow..you have beautiful hair.  Have you ever cut it?" (meaning in my entire life)  So my mission now is to get a haircut.  Soon...as soon as I possibly can..hopefully Friday.  Sunday was Easter and i went to church..obviously.  um...yeah. then easter dinner we had my grandma and my uncle and desiree over.  ham...ham never ends. there is always more ham to eat.  and then after you eat that ham...there's more.  and after the more ham is gone...there's still more!! (I will be eating ham until christmas...when there will be...yes! you guessed it! more ham!)  although you could always sing the camp song about ham...."fried ham fried ham cheese and bologna..and after the macaroni we'll have onions and pickles and pretzels and then we'll have...more fried ham fried ham!"  good stuff! Yeah....anyway.  Sunday night Jane, Jess, Ehhus and I all hung out at Jess's all night.  We read Jess's book on how to speak southern.  I don't need a book for that...Monday I went shopping and then...went to work! (anyone noticing a pattern here?)  Tuesday I had to go back to school...it was really sad because break was so long and nice...and school is...not so nice.  and that brings us to today...which is wednesday.  We had a PB&J practice after school...and we're horrible.  Sounds of Silence, Build me up buttercup and i'm a believer (which are suppossed to be our best songs) are horrible...and yet "8days a week"...which has always been one of our rockiest...sounded okay.  and our gig is tuesday...less than a week away. but we did have almost everyone at practice today..even renee and melissa which was pretty amazing.  and sammy cookie of course!! (everyone needs a sammy cookie) i think he's a little less afraid of us now.  that's always a plus. the downfall...he doesn't remember how to play some of the music...so that should be an adventure!!  And May 1st is the camp retreat...yay!! Anyone going?!  I hope some of you good camp people out there are going. I cant' go til Saturday afternoon though because I have to take SATs.   That makes me sad because I've been to every camp retreat since 7th grade.  I haven't missed a single one..and now i have to miss half of this one.  So hey..any of you camp people out there want to sign me up for your cabin so i dont end up with strangers...that would be great....(hint hint)  Hm...oh! i didn't talk about the strange little kid.  I was at the park with Jess (swinging..not the same day as the tennis)  and this little kid comes up to us and is talking to us.  and after a few minutes, he's like, "hey...I can't talk to you.  You're strangers and my mommy told me I can't talk to strangers."  It was the greatest thing ever. I mean, I know we're strange but hey! Anyway! i've rambled enough.  It's time for bed.  I'd like to be able to get up tomorrow morning.  Adios!
