   i hate having one subject
hey yall, yeah i hate talking about only one thing, so im not going to. yesterday when i got up my mom made me paint this old basket for 4-H. anyways after i finished the first coat we (mom, brother, and me) went to iowa city! yay! there is a mall there! this mall has a barnes and nobles. like all barnes and nobles, this one has a section for "graphic novels".....you would think that i would be thrilled. well, im sorry to disapoint you. i was not. i have given up on barnes and nobles as a manga supply. why you ask? i am happy to tell you. *deep breath* *lets out breath (no! this was not a sigh!)* well, barnes and nobles has a great selection of manga, but not a majority. what i look for in a manga store is quality followed closely by quantity. there is this store in the mall at burlington. this store, B. Dalton, you can count on. if you find a series that you like there, you ~know~ that they will continue to supply this series. yesterday i could have boughten the 3 remaining volumes to complete my Love Hina series, but barnes and nobles didn't ~have~ #12 or 13. no, it went from #10 to 14! that made me quite angery. *sigh* but i should stop complaining.

anyways while we were up there, we bumped into my aunts: Jean, Jane, and Jan. they are all sisters, but you can't forget there brothers: James and Theodore (the latter is my dad) and their other sister, Gwen (did i spell that right?). i think my family has a problem with J names. still being on my dad's side, i have cousins: Jessie, Laura, Sara, Beca, Seth, and Rachel (sp?). but you can't forget ~Becca's~ family: she married a guy named Josh, their kids are: Jaccob, Alyce, and Kamron. and Laura is getting married soon to a guy named John (more on them l8er). which is accutaly pertty good. but on my mom's side i have: Uncle Jay and Steven (but Steven died when i was really little) Jay's wife is Karen, their children: Carsandra (who's rather resent husband's name i can't remember) and her brother Ben (unmarried). Bens a lawyer! and Uncle Steven's wife is Becky, oh i love Aunt Becky. She has a new husband now, he is Gary. i know you are thinking "but thoes aren't very many J names" well here are some more. Gary doesn't have any children, Becky does. these are my cousins (i hope i get this right, i ~still~ have truble): John, Janna, and Sandy. John is married to Jackie, there children are (this time im in order): Bryant (who is older than me!!! my cousin has a kid who is older than me!!!!), Brytni, Brady, and Breagan. i don't know the names of Janna and Sandy nor which kid belongs to whom but here are their children: Steven, Shelby, Shawn, Jack, Josh, and Kenny. *sigh* and i would be surprised if you acctualy read this far. if so, then i am honored *bows* sorry i'll just skip a head to the next subject

so anyways we got home about 8 and i was on the net and playing around with some pics until 11, when dad made me get off.

i went down stairs and raed my new bible for a little bit, then i watched Case Closed. but i couldn't sleep, i think i drank som caffine earlier on so i thought i would put my time to good use. mom had earlier told me that my brother and i have to clean up our rooms and the basement living room, so i did just that. well exsept for his room of course. so i did laundry, cleaned up my room, picked up the junk on the living room floor, and at 3 i went to bed.

at 9 my mom woke me up to do another coat on the basket. after that my brother and i watched "the last samuri" man was it good! i loved it! i think everyone should watch it! i don't care if it ~is~ rated R (which it is) it was really good! there are some really cool morbid parts but hay! ya have ta understand that the movie is about the Japaniese Revolution. but it now is like 4:30 and i have to go pack cuz im staying the night at kira's house. we are going to something called "steam boat days" and im going to my first conserte!!! i can't wait!! *jumps up and down and all around!* yaaaaay!! but i gotta go now so see ya!
~Taleybo (sorry this post was so lon- hey i just realized that my boyfirend would fit right in with my family, his name starts with J too! oh and no kira, im not depressed)
