Hello,

I am volunteering at the Ocala Civic Theatre in the Sound Booth.  The play is (Horn trumpeting here), “The Beloved Dearly” Abby is in it and Dad is running the light board.  The Light Board is in the Sound Booth but it isn’t attached to the Sound Board.  The Sound Board has 72 channels, 4 amps, 2 CD players, and zillions of other small things that I don’t know any reason for them to be there except to confuse me.  Today was my first day in the actual booth but not my first day there for this play.  I’m not sure if I did a good job but the guy who is teaching me is confident that I’ll be ready come performance time.  I am getting hints from my parents that perhaps I ought to be moving in the direction of bed but I need to finish first.  It is a cute play with a handful of kind of funny parts.  Including people rolling around on the ground crying, “I prom’se I’lltryharder. Ipromise!”

Hopefully it won’t be to hard.  Dad says that I’m in “seventh heaven.”  I’m not so sure quite yet because they are still yet to bring the cake and ice cream up to me during performances and practices.  I’m gonna talk to them tomorrow.  In the meantime I hope that anyone, everyone, and all who read this have (had, will have, did have, or any other sort of tense for that meaning) a good night’s sleep.  Chao!

Hello Everybody (and that is anybody),

I’m here on Thanksgiving and ready to Rock (and sock)! I’ll probably do some socking once we make it to Mema’s house later today. I’m gonna bring my Xbox 360 and bring this awesome (hence the title) video game. Hopefully I can rock the Orcs and clobber the Uruk-hai when I play. Hold on, I forgot to tell you what game it is. It is (drum roll please) Battle for Middle Earth II. Yeah, I did the Tutorials and burned the goblins to ashes as the Continue Reading »

My post that I did last night wasn’t all that true, It was distorted due to several items:

I was upset with my Mother for not letting me play on the Xbox 360,

I was trying to prepare myself for what I hoped would be a good night to possibly write a very sarcastic post about Fantasy Football,

and I was a little depressed after a hard day of School. Continue Reading »

Hello to anyone who is reading this,

Last Friday night Dad and I had a sort of Birthday Party at the family’s lake house. There were 12 people there (just like the disciples). There was Dad, Grandpa Gary, Cousin Ben, Mr. Crishon, Mr. Sam, Mr. Bartow, Mr. Phil, Mr. Ken, Mr. Ross, Pastor Jim, Mr. Stuart, and myself (the man of the hour). So we had Hamburgers, beans (I’m still trying to figure out why that room smelled so bad), three different kinds of chips, pretzels, corn, and several different drinks. Then after dinner we talked and talked, and talked, and talked (do you get my point?). It took a while and I got a lot of advice (I only remember bits and pieces of it). Then we all prayed and that took another ten minutes. After that we filed into Continue Reading »
