Back by Popular Demand

...Well, maybe not popular. Maybe just one person said she missed my blog. But I'm back, anyway!

I'll not even try to catch you up on everything that has happened since I last posted. Just a brief overview.

In February, we went to the Rock & Worship Roadshow in Madison. That was a lot of fun, especially because that morning, we visited Redamte Coffee House and had the privilege of singing with Tenth Avenue North for their upcoming album, The Struggle. Then we spent hours and hours in line, waiting for our awesome seats.
You can access the entire Facebook album here. If you ask nicely, I'll even do a full post about the concert!

Spring has come very early to this neck of the woods, and I have to admit, I'm enjoying it fully. 80* days for the past week! Can the weather get any better than this?
The trees have their little green flowers, ready to burst into leaves any day now. Lilacs have leaves as large as my thumb, and the tulips have begun to bloom. I discovered today that we have a daffodil in the middle of the yard. Nobody knows what it's doing there. The former owners seem to have scattered random flowers at random throughout the yard, with no plans or flower beds. I had never seen this plant flower before, so I was very surprised to see one solitary bright yellow daffodil!

My job has been interesting, and busy, and tiring, and boring, and everything rolled into one. This morning I wrestled with wire baskets, inserting or removing dividers, reinserting, re-removing... Once I had them all in, the task went quickly. (I was just putting new products on the pegs or in the baskets.) But we didn't have enough dividers to make as many basketletts as we needed, so I had to Improvise. Hopefully my improvisation goes over well, otherwise....
I'm not doing that section over again! I am NOT!

And then the last thing I'll tell you about are my Plans for Tomorrow.
Because Tomorrow just happens to also be my Birthday.
It is my Twentieth Birthday, in fact.

And Tomorrow, in Waukesha, the Called To Love Tour is making a stop. (CTL Tour consisting of Downhere, Jason Gray, and Aaron Shust.) If you have been reading my blog for a while, you'll remember that I saw DH and JG on December 14th, 2008. You will also know that Downhere is pretty much my favorite band, and Jason Gray my favorite singer.
And even if you haven't read my blog before, that paragraph should give you a hint about how excited I am!
I'm trying not to use too many exclamation points, but a few more than necessary might slip out.

From what I've heard, the CTL Tour is going to be amazing. Not only are two of the three my favorites, I like the third, too. AND, I'm meeting some 'Downhomies' that I've only ever talked with online. After knowing some of them for over a year and a half, I'm eager to actually meet face-to-face.

I'll let you know how it goes!

And hello to Abbie, who demanded my return to blogging! Now you must surrender to my demand to write a letter back! ;)

Adios,
~Kiwifruit~

Black Friday Sale!!!! Doors open Saturday.

(Something's wrong there....^)
Yes, my friends, that is a true statement. I saw it on a Sears commercial last Saturday. I just thought it was odd...
Okay, so I'm working on a Christmassy tag. I'm not sure why it's Christmassy, but it has to do with "The Sound of Music," which is always played around Christmas (I'm not sure why), so it must be Christmassy.
I've been painting non-stop for the past four days, and now have three and a half Christmas cards to show for it! One of them is completely unlike any painting I've done before, yet it turned out (if I may say so) awesome!! So some of you will be getting that from us before too long, and the rest of you will have to wait until all our cards have gone out to get a glimpse of it on here. :) Actually, Most of you will get them in the mail.

Grandma and Grandpa said I should put my Christmas List on here, so here's a partial one. Maybe I'll stick the full thing on my sidebar. (* marks the ones I want, @ marks the ones I need, and # marks the ones I want so bad that I almost need them. :)

• @Paint brushes (Mom has a set that I like. It's Loew-Cornell brand, and it has 10 brushes in it. The reason I like her set is because the bristles are stiffer than the set I own. I guess just about any watercolor brushes would be great, especially if they're rather stiff.)
• @paint palette (porcelain or plastic, either one works well for me! 
• @watercolor pad (I'm half-way through the last page in mine! I love the way this one looks, or one of these three books would be nice. Except I don't care whether or not it's wind-powered paper.)
• *knee socks!! (How can you NOT like knee socks?!?!? They're so much fun! And if you get one pair of every color and pattern, you'll have one pair for every outfit you own.)
• *Diary from Walden Books. (I was there the other day and found this super-cute diary there! I wanted to buy it, but I was already buying another book for myself. Wish there was a picture online, but Walden/Borders apparently 'doesn't have' diaries. >:P Maybe I'll take a picture of it to put on here sometime.)
• #fluffy fleece bathrobe (Sis has one, and I want it! Mine was pale pink [and not fleece], but now it's kinda dirty pink, and no amount of washing is going to get all the little fuzzies off!)
• *#@volleyball 
• *Emily Climbs and Emily's Quest by L.M. Montgomery. (I found Emily of New Moon at Goodwill the other day and read it in 36 hours. Now I want the other two in the series!)
• *pretty much any interesting books
• #waterproof pens for my pen watercolor work
• *jewelry
• **Downhere cds: "How Many Kings?" "So Much for Substitutes" "Thunder After Lightning" 
• **Jason Gray cds: "Everything Sad is Coming Untrue" and "All the Lovely Losers"
• **Daniel Kirkley cd: "Let Love Win" (only $5.00 in his online store! :D)
• *Kutless cd? "It is Well" and possibly "To Know That You're Alive" (ya, they weird looking, but he has a good voice!)
• @@@snazzy new car (It has to be large enough for me and at least 3 friends, it has to be able to drive on the road legally, and it has to look cool. I specify the first two because, knowing my relatives, they'd think it funny to give me one of THESE.)
• @@@laptop computer (identical to this one, only with a better temperament.)
• #diamond earrings.
• **bandannas and scarves!
• #gloves
• @@@dishwasher (electric. to put in my kitchen and wash all them dishes for me!)
• **##@@Bermuda. The whole island. 

Okay, that's most of it. I'm sure I could think of some more, but, given the time, I'll quit now. :D For some of those things there's a very fine line between wanting and needing them (Bermuda. Laptop. Dishwasher.). 

what are some of the things that are on your Christmas lists, all you readers?? Let me know. :D

Ta-ta

p.s. the background on here is going to change again on December 21st, just to give y'all a warning!

Happy Ganksthiving!!!

Howdy, everyone! It's that time of year again, when we gather 'round and munch till our hearts are content. And until our hearts are no longer content and burn within us. And that once-in-a-year'stime experience of turkey. My grandma knows how to make a gooood turkey. And we have our family recipe for Dressing (with oysters:), and fruit salads, and sweet potatoes, and I'm not sure what-all else we're having this year.
Pie. I like pies. We get four this year; pecan, pumpkin, cherry, and apple.
Mom and Grandma are saying that this year, everything will be ready to eat by 12:30 at the latest. LOL out loud! EVERY year they say the turkey and everything will be cooked and on the table by a certain time. And I don't remember eating before 2:00 on Ganksthiving. Ever. Let's see if they can get it on time, shall we? I'm taking monetary bets on this......;)

Why do I keep calling today "Ganksthiving"? Allow someone else to explain:


Most of the movie is irrelevant, but I think you'll spot the part that is relevant. :D

Um.
I'm working on a new post series to start on here in January, probably. But I can't tell you more, 'cause it's a s'prise. :) Which is too bad, 'cause it's really looking like a good idea!

Lastly, I'd like to know what made my last post so special? I got ten comments!! I haven't gotten ten comments in ages! What made y'all like that post? Tell me so I can do it again.

Happy Thanksgiving!!
~Kiwi~

a tag from Judi

1. Leave me a comment saying, “Interview me.” Please include your blog address unless I already have it.

2. I will respond by commenting on your blog with five questions. I get to pick the questions.


3. You will update your blog/website/whatever with the answers to the questions.


4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.


5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.


Here are my interview questions from Judi:
1: If you could choose any place in the world to live, where would it be?
Well, if I could move all my friends there with me, Tennessee would be nice. Or maybe a bit further south. But if all my friends would have to stay behind, I'll just stay here. :)

2: Favorite animated movie of all time?
The Incredibles or Ratatouille. Or maybe Finding Nemo. I think those are my top three in that order.

3: Can you play an instrument, if so, what kind??
Nope.

4: Who and what inspired you to first start blogging??
My good friend Dagmar got a blog a little over a year ago, which drew my attention to blogging. (Oh, speaking of you, Dagmar.....post again!!)

5: If you could interview one famous person/group, who would it be and why??
If I have ever heard an unfair question in my life, and I've heard plenty, this one must be the least fair of all! Which ONE, indeed! Ummmmm.....of the famous people I can think of, I guess Daniel Kirkley or Jason Gray. I've met both of them before, but, of course, forgot all the important questions I should have asked. :P Group? Newsboys or Downhere would be my top two picks.


Anyone want to be interviewed?

Big, long, over-due post/I Think I'm Going to Turn Vegetarian

Hi, I'm back! The computer (formerly Angus, then Fritz, and now Angus again 'cause he's not "on the fritz" all the time) has returned to my clutches and is now mine-all-mine for the moment. Guess what I'm doing. I am listening to Jason Gray. On the computer! It's still weird hearing sound coming out of him. (Rapunzel says to specify 'the sound coming out of Angus, not Jason Gray. ;) But weird in a nice sort of way. :-)

I shall do a quickie over-view of the past few weeks. The Wednesday after Easter we went to Madison and the Tea Party.
What was the Tea Party? Well, Wednesday was April 15th. Tax day. People all over the country gathered at the state capitals, or other large towns to protest against raising/unfair taxes, big government, lying officials, stuff like that. What happened in Boston a few hundred years back, when King George raised the tea tax? (Hopefully you remember your Boston tea party hstory lessons) That's where the name came from. TEA also stands for Taxed Enough Already.

So we drove up to participate in that. We had to park 2 (?) miles away, then walk up to the capital. We could have ridden a shuttle bus, but the lines were so long!
When we finally arrived, the square was covered with people with signs, people with tea party tee shirts, people, people, people!! One news station predicted 100 people standing on the steps of the capital. They were right, there couldn't have been more than 100 people standing on the steps, but there were7,900 more on the lawn!

I don't remember the names of all the people who spoke, but y'all can look that up if you want. I do remember one, however. Melika Willoughby, 17 years old and homeschooled! (Don't you just love it when you see other homeschoolers doing really well at something? Despite the fact that we are 'undersocialized' and 'poorly taught', we can still do things! :)
Here's her speech.





So what do you think? I think she did pretty well.

After the 'party' was over, I got my first ride in a school bus (Drat! Broke my perfect unattendance record!) back to the lot our car was in.

On Sunday before the service started, Dad motioned me over and secretively pointed someone out to me.
"Isn't that the girl who spoke at the tea party Wednesday?"
I wasn't so sure, but he shooed me over anyway ("It can't hurt to find out!") and, waddayaknow, it was! We got to talk quite a bit before and after the service. She has two sisters, they are all in competative debate, they are all homeschooled, they know some people at our church and were visiting them.... Anyway. We exchanged emails, so hopefully we can stay in touch.
I just thought that was quite a coincident!


And now just a (very) quick telling of my past two weeks. Week before last we didn't do much. I got aquainted with my new bike. (which I love.) I found that padded handlebars are infinately better than unpadded ones, but they both work equally well.
Angus went in for a check up, and came back working well. We're having to re-install everything from pre-repairation (is that a word?), which is taking forever to do.
Um, this past week we watched a movie or two. Today we cooked freezer meals. Mom purposefully chose me to cut up the stew meat, e'en though she knows full well that I don't like handling raw meat. She says I should get used to it. I say I'm going to be a vegetarian cook.
I don't mind eating cooked meat, it's just when it's raw, bloody, etc. that I dislike it.

We also went to church to meet the Associate Pastoral Candidate. He's not a football-watching person (HOOrah!), he's a baseball-watching person (HaHa!!) who roots for the Cubs. :-) Good fer him. (We missed most of the Q&A part, so that's most of what I learned about him! I didn't just neglect the important parts)
So that is, in a nutshell, what my past two weeks have been like. What have y'all been doing?

~Kiwi~

P.S. A discussion question: Why is there a dollar sign ($) at the top of the keyboard, but no cent sign? Please explain it to me.

Happy New Year!! / After the Concert, part 2

Happy New Year, Y'alls! Isn't it a wonderful year? I sort of expected it to be a bit different than last year, with all the hype and celebration. It feels like 2008 still. Now I need to practise typing '2009' 2009 2009 2009 2009............

I still catch myself writing 2007 occasionally. It'll take me forever to catch onto this 2009 thing.

A quick overview of the New Year celebration at church: We had two hours of singing/prayer to begin with. I nearly died of smothered laughter twice (thankfully during the singing, not the prayer! That would have been embarrassing!). The first time needs a lot of explanation, so I'll skip it. The second time, we were singing "Everlasting God" and it kept getting higher, and higher and higher so that even the worship leaders were having a hard time singing it! I was sitting next to a friend, then Rapunzel and two other friends. We all started giggling a bit, but the friend next to me and I got it the worst, and I laughed so hard I was crying by the end of the song. Thankfully, it was the last song....

Then some friends and I played a rousing game of Pit. It's an awesome game we got for Christmas from Mum and Dad. I won twice. Next, I played a lot of Apples to Apples and won two green cards in a row. I ended up with three, I think.

During the Apples to Apples game, one girl was trying to take pictures of another, who did not want to be photographed unawares. That was quite entertaining, trying to get pics of her. And then, after we got bored with it and some people had to go home, I stood around talking with my friend and her friend, who I'm not quite sure what to think of. He has a very confusing effect on people. Sort of a talent for getting your mind muddled. It's really hard to get a coherent sentence out around him.

Then, it became 2009, and the three boys left there (my bros and another kid) blew noise makers and laughed and clapped. Woo hoo! Somehow, it doesn't feel like the future. No flying cars, no hovering cities, no transporter beams....what's the point of '09? *sigh*

So. On to the "After the Concert, Part 2" part of me post.

*ahem*

Where were we? Ah, yes, I had just met one Daniel Kirkley. After chatting with Daniel Kirkley some, we moved on in the line to Jason Germain, who is tall and makes me feel short even though I was wearing two-inch heels. Here is us meeting him:

That's my book he's signing. I look sad, don't I? Well I wasn't!
Inbetween this picture and the next, he asked us:

"Sisters?"

*nod heads and answer in unison* "Yes."

"Twins?"

*laugh and shake heads and answer in unison* "No!"

"Oh, do you get that a lot?"

Ha! Argh! I wish we had used the answer that we have practised many times, but never had a chance to use: "Yes," I say, "She's the older by two years...." I thought of that, just as we were shaking our heads.

He also asked if I'm a musician. Because of the necklace I had on. (note to Mom: And you said no one would notice my jewelry! *reserves the right to say 'I told you so'*)It's some sort of musical sign, but you can tell from that description how much I know about music! I said, no, it's my sister's, but I do sing a lot.

Jason figured out that Rapunzel, Owan, and I could form a band.... :D He's really nice, too.

And here are, from left to right, Miss Kiwi, Mr. Jason Germain (all bent over so he could fit in the same picture with us and not have his head cut off), Miss Rapunzel, and a bad picture of Miss Owan. (Sorry, Owan! I don't know how to edit the picture.). Look at the guy in the background. Behind and to the left of me. Doesn't he look like Jason? When I first caught a glimpse of him, I thought it was Jason, with a bit of lip fuzz.

And then, we casually sauntered over to Jaime Jamgochian and Lanae' Hale. We enjoyed a good talk with Jaime. Rapunzel was in a musical year before last which included a song by Jaime. I'll give you the song title once I get it from my sis. Jaime asked Rapunzel to email her a link to it, or if we had Facebook to show it to her on there. So far, we haven't found it on the Web. :( And, somehow, Jaime avoided the camera and we have no picture of her. :'(

But, here're two of Rapunzel and me with Lanae' Hale and Daniel Kirkley:

This is a good picture of Daniel and me.

And this is a good one of all of us. I thought there were two messed up pictures, but I guess there weren't.
Y'know, here I look a lot taller than Daniel, but if I hadn't worn heels we would have been almost the same height.

And that's all I'll say about The Concert for now, because I still have material for one more post, plus copies of autographs. :) I'm getting quite a bit of Blogger Fodder out of this. :)

Note to Soul Skittles Regarding her Last Comment: Sorry I 'lied'. :) But I think you lied, too, in your last comment, about me having "like one thousand" up on you.

Note to Owan Regarding Several Things: This is a warning. Be very careful in all you do. You do not want to anger me. The last person to anger me.... well, let's just say that her movie collection was raided and it was Not Pretty. That's all I have to say. That and, how are your 'poachels'?

Note to All who Read This: My friend, HMS Avalon, wishes me to tell you that she wants a few more readers and y'all are all welcome to visit. At least, I think that's the message I'm supposed to give you.

And now I must go to Bed. Ugh. I don't like Bed.
Last thing: I'm going to try to blog on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and possibly once on weekends.
There. I'm done. Y'alls can comment now!

The Bethlehem Skyline Concert

Okay, I have no clue where to start, so I’ll try starting at the beginning. Oh, wow, so original! But I’ll only go about half-way through the evening. I’ll be able to get some good posts out of this.
So. We arrived just as the doors were scheduled to open, but some people managed to get in there earlier and so the front rows were taken. :( We got some pretty good seats off to the left of center stage. =D
While waiting for the concert to start, we played a hand-clapping game where the loser had to get up and do a fifteen-second ‘random dance moment’ as penance. That was fun! I only had to do it once.
Then, the pastor (or I’m assuming he was the pastor) went up and announced that the concert was starting. Ten seconds passed, and no one appeared on stage. Twenty seconds. Thirty seconds is as long as impatient people like me can wait, so Owan, who came with us, started a slow clapping rhythm that slowly grew louder and faster as more people joined in. That was cool! I’ve never been an instigator of something like that! Behind the clapping, we could hear sheep and angel voices. Jason Gray came out after what seemed like an eternity and said something like “I heard that and it sounded like a rock concert starting, then you hear angels going ‘aaaaahhhh’ in the background!”
Jason was the emcee for the evening, and he did a great job at that. Jaime Jamgochian came out after Jason did “Miriam”, and she sang “­O Come, O Come Emmanuel” Next, Daniel Kirkley was called out. He’s amazing! Centricity got some really talented artists for this tour. He sang “What Child is This?” I’ll post a video of him doing this song, because I haven’t got a clue how to describe his voice.
Lanae’ Hale came out next, and she did a nice song. She has a pretty voice, but she’s a little more country-music-style than I usually listen to.
An’ den….. Downhere! Their first song was “Glory to God”. I’ve only heard it twice before Sunday, but I know most of the chorus already. Here's a pic of Marc:And another: We didn’t get many good pictures, but I do have to thank Mom for loaning her camera. Without it, the pictures wouldn’t be even this good!

I’m going to just post a few more pictures of the concert here, because otherwise I’ll end up writing up the entire concert. You can watch video of the last Bethlehem Skyline concert at www.mogulus.com/downhere if you want. Here’re the pics!

I’ll post more tomorrow or day after. Have fun!
Kiwi da Happyfruit

TONIGHT!!!!!!!!

AAAAAAH!!!!! IT'S TONIGHT!!!!! I CAN'T WAIT!!!! I'm soooooo excited, thus the exclamation points, all cap. words, screams, jumping up and down, and excited look on my face!!!!!

We are leaving in about ten minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This will be my shortest post ever!
BTW, the reason I haven't posted in a while is because I was banned from the computer for a loooong time. :(

See ya'll later! I'm going to a CONCERT!!!!! YEEEEHAW!
~Elated Kiwifruit
okay, I'm not actually going into hysterics or anything, but I am really excited!
Bye bye!

Joy!! Happy Day!!/New Poems

Rejoice and be merry, me fellow bloggers! Yours Truly is going to see Downhere. Live. In concert. In 26 days. Wooooohoooooo! I can't wait!! *does a little happy dance* After I get this posted, I'm going to try to find a countdown thingymajig that will actually work on here (for some weird reason, unknown to mankind, animalkind, and most likely alienkind also), set it for December 14th, and host a party every time it counts down one week. Big party on the 13th. Y'all'll have to party without me on the 14th. Why? Because I'll be at The Concert, of course!!
=^D =^D =^D =^D =^D =^D =^D =^D =^D =^D =^D =^D =^D
And Daniel Kirkley will be there, and he's got an amazing voice, too, and Jason Gray, and Jaime Jamgochian, and Lanae' Hale.

Like I said. Happy Day.

Now, here is a brand-new poem, written just this afternoon, never before seen by anyone outside of this family. I hope you enjoy the privilege. ;) Please ignore the dots. Those aren't supposed to be there, but it was the only way I could get the words to align correctly.

..........................I wish I could be
.............................................as happy
.........................................................as
...........................................................a
...........................................................CLAM
...................................For then,
..............................................when
.................................................people say
...................................................“you look
.......................................................as happy
...................................................................as
.....................................................................a
.....................................................................CLAM,”
...................................................I can say
...................................................................“I
.........................................................................AM!”

There is my masterpiece. D'you like it? I've always wanted to write a 'stair-step' poem--one where the lines sort of end up looking like stair-steps. And now I have. But now that I have fulfilled my "life's dream", what else is there to live for? I am no longer as happy as a clam. There's no reason to be. ;-(
Anywho; this was the third day in a row that I wrote a poem in. I think this is the best poem out of the three. Here's my second favorite. It was written on an envelope to some friends back in Iowa. (Catfreak and Avalon: if you have not yet received my letter, wait to read this.)

I say 'How're you?'

To my friends back in Iowa

And wonder what they do

Without me there.

I talk and talk

'Bout random things

Like how I want to walk

O'er to their house like I used to.

Sadly, then, I write 'Goodbye'

And wonder how long

Till I can say 'Hi'

And stand there right beside them.

And then here's my least favorite. It needs more work on it, like on the last line of the first stanza, but I can't find anything that'll work better.

Angus

Although you came into my life

Just a few short months ago,

I feel that I know you well,

As if you were my beau!

The reason for our meeting

Was not a happy one*

But we got past that quickly

And went on to weeks of fun.

Me, clicking happily away,

And you just sitting there

following my every whim

With complementary flair.

My every wish

Ends up as your command,

To get what I want from you,

I barely need raise my hand!

Occasionally, however,

for reasons unknown on earth

You provoke me nearly to tears

Making me wonder about your worth.

Is what I'm doing

Worth begging your co-operation?

Or would I be better off

Sending you on extended vacation?

Yet when all is said and done,

Instead of making a fuss,

I will love you (almost) forever,

My dear computer, Angus!

See what I mean about that last line of the first stanza? But there are no other words that rhyme with 'ago' and still make sense in the poem! Doe, foe, low, mow, moe, snow, bow, beau, go, hoe, joe, no, oh, poe, row, stow, sow, sew, toe, tow, woe, yo. None work! A large virtual high-five to someone who can give me a better line.
*The story behind this poem goes like this: I wrote a eulogy for Bob and Larry, and I fear that Angus has gotten a bit jealous of them. He won't work consistently for me because of this jealousy, so I wrote him this, hoping to appease him.

Oh, before I leave, I was tagged by Soul Skittles to tell 7 random things about meself. So here goes.

1: I hate being trapped inside by cold winter weather.
2: I discovered that chap stick works well to keep your nose from becoming raw when you have a stupid cold and have to blow your nose fifty times per hour. But it's best to use clear stuff, not blue or purple. :-)
3: I'm waiting (rather impatiently) for the day that LOST comes back on tv, 'cause I'm addicted to it.
4: For some reason, I keep waking up at some time in the middle of the night, but I don't know when because I don't have a clock in my room. (hey, you wanted random...)
5: I LOVE listening to Christian music. To name just a few: Newsboys, Downhere, Kutless, Stellar Kart, Paul Colman, Paul Colman Trio. I could continue my list for a few days, but I didn't think y'all'd appreciate that
6: I run out of random things very quickly, and dread finding more.
7: I'd like to visit Australia and New Zealand someday.

So, I tag:
Judi
Catfreak
Avalon
Zoe

So ends this insanely long post. Will this keep you all happy for a while longer?
~Kiwifruit

P.S. It snowed yesterday, but didn't accumulate. I don't like snow right now.

Hello, my friends!/Cancellation of Comment Blitz

Sadly, I must cancel the Comment Blitz. Well, actually I guess it's a good thing, as Avalon has finally posted again. But I was looking forward to blitzing her again! ;-D (I wish I could put little emoticons on here. Their faces are so much more expressive.) Thank you, Avalon, for posting again!!

Ho hum bug.

Sorry, I'm just a little bored. I had a great idea of what I wanted to say today, but it just up and left.
I'm bummed. Downhere, Jason Gray, Daniel Kirkley, Jaime Jamgochian, and Lanae Hale are coming near My-ville on a Bethlehem Skyline Tour. Tickets are only $20, for five artists plus dinner, but I don't got twenty extra bucks! So donations are accepted, the larger the better.... Just kidding. But I'm trying to buy Christmas presents now so that if I can get my sticky fingers on $20 I can spend it on a ticket instead of presents. So I need to finish buying things, and make twenty bucks, but then I need to actually find where I can get tickets, 'cause I've been searching the Internet for 'em. But THEY'RE NO WHERE TO BE FOUND!!!! ANYWHERE! I searched Downhere's website, Jason Gray's, the Bethlehem Skyline Tour site, and HMPH.
WAIT A SECOND!!!!! I FOUND 'EM, THE TRICKY LITTLE BUGGERS! Hahaha! The Kiwifruit triumphs yet again! I found them on the website of the church that the concert's gonna be at. But that's odd. This website says tickets are $12, whereas I was informed they were $20. I'll have to research that, but this'll make it easier to get to go!!! Happy Day!

I'm going to publish this now, to appease the public (namely Judi, whom I think is just itching to bug me into posting :-), but I've got a poem to put up later, so keep checking back.
TaTa For Now!!
