Riding Elephants

What is cracka lacking? Ah, the hidden depths of improper grammar and pronunciation, I do so love them. What's crackalackin', people!? Hope you're all okay!

I've not started to pack yet. Went for dinner with dad last night. We got onto the subject of dating and other halves. We had a bit of an argument. Dad is only pissed off because the man I'm dating is older than his girlfriend. Apparently she has invited him to learn to ride elephants in September and October in Thailand (hopefully not a euphemism). "This'll be a learning curve," he says. More like learning perv, dad. She's 24. I look forward to meeting her, I said (oh so casually of course). He said no. Bastard.

My dad and I have never got on. While you're in Thailand riding elephants, daddy dearest, I'll be starting my second year of college and enjoying not being harassed for pointless conversations every day or so.

Currently I'm planning lessons for September... Thinking of taking scrabble in as a means to teach more kids how to spell and to be sure of themselves. This evening is filled with a game called boxes... I love it but my little sister (of sorts) is very competitive! We get on now, we never used to but recently she's alright and I think I'm less stressed, leading to a (somewhat) harmonious bond. Back to the game!

Still stunned by Thomas Harris' use of description in his Hannibal novel... insanely good.

Happy reading, folks!

The blog of mog, plus competition! waay!

so, I've heard from David B that this is a pretty awesome blog. Look away boys *and tiv, I see that in your trousers* so I can puff out my chest with pride! Okay, you can look back now...

Some things I have tried to do just DON'T work, do they? Like, running and jumping over a metal pole, Teaching tiv the lwas of fraternal twins (ask david, ross and kit, they enjoyed my attempt)
and staying warm in a freezing cold tent, those are examples. The person who gives the best example at the bottom of the page (I want some KIND of evidence, please) gets a chocolate bar!

I would like to thank Shana for my SPIDERPIG poster, as it makes me laugh and I love it muchly, and Tilly because her attitude to life makes me laugh even more. Pessimism is not the answer.

David Barnsley, are you a night owl? Meh, you are, methinks.

Shanice says a slightly freaked out hello to all you bloggers who are reading this, and also wonders if ross is coming round again as he is "big tall scary agh" as she once put it. Ross said he thought she was "intelligent, mature for her age, and trying to grow up to quickly." I think he can be.. the scientific name for it is "stupid git". but aren't we all.... Some more than others.... *tiv....joking*

YOU HAVE ONE WEEK TO GIBE ME FAILS AND EVIDENCE AND THEN I WILL SELECT A WINNER :)
