And it is quite time to write another post! My humble apologies to those of you who have come to my website expecting a new post and not finding one. I hope that you shall return again and see that your patience hath paid off.

I have been doing a lot lately but the memory of past events has faded a bit, as is not unusual. I haven’t exactly been in a writing mood, at least not as far as posts are concerned. I forget what I did on Friday, though I think I went shopping at Hamricks but I might have done that Thursday. On Saturday I went to Walmart(I usually remember Walmart Visits) and purchased sufficient material to make a broom skirt. I made the skirt with the intention of wearing it on Sunday but I don’t think Mom thought it turned out well especially since I did not have matching thread for the fabric. I highly doubt anyone other than Mom taking great notice of this fact though. If anybody else noticed it hopefully they would just think it was a designer touch. However I didn’t wear that. Much time indeed may elapse before my skills as a seamstress are great enough to enable me to actually wear in public something I’ve made. Though I have done it before…

I’ve listened to a lot of Lord of the Rings lately and though I doubt it is very noticeable a trifle bit of that style is creeping in into my writing, at least I know that my train of thought has been affected. And speaking of Lord of the Rings I played a rather impressive game tonight with my Lord of the Rings trading cards. I had built three decks from some of my “extra” cards and I played a game where I played all three players. That was somewhat of a mistake for since I played all players and I didn’t want to lose it made the game stretch out interminably until I finally looked at the clock and thought in surprise “IT”S ONE ALREADY!!!” The game ended with a truce shortly after that. So nobody lost and nobody really won and that was alright I hope. It was a fun game though. It’s kind of interesting playing with different the strategies that leftover cards can bring to play.

I haven’t really mentioned anything more about the title of my post, and that might be just as well. However my birthday is rapidly approaching and I will be turning seventeen! Mom does not think that I should post a wish list on my website so at some point I’ll probably post a “Suggested Birthday Presents List” instead. Note the plural “presents”. I know already I’m going to get at least two or more presents from Mom but I really enjoy opening wrapped presents. Though I may feel a little upset if all that is in them is a large rock which one of my brothers gave me for one of my birthdays. He was forgiven and allowed to be my brother again when an I O U note was discovered underneath the rock.

I will however (this year) try not to be too pushy about asking for presents, for a change. I’m probably going to abstain from asking for them in person and just leave lengthy hints on my website unless of course I’m talking to somebody who doesn’t read my website and therefore could not take notice of my hints:)

At anyrate, I really ought to be asleep right now so I’ll probably end this post now.
