Wazup?

Here I am again. I was planing to post yesterday, but forgot that that's the day Dad works from home and uses the internet hook-up. It's nice when he's home. Even if he is in the office most of the day, I like knowing that he's just in the other room and not three or four hours away.
So. Yesterday was a hot, sticky day (thank goodness for air conditioning! I don't know how I'd live without it!) and I was hoping it would rain really hard in the afternoon so I could put on my swimsuit and go dance in the rain. But it didn't rain until past seven, and even then it was just a pitiful drizzle. I went and hung out at the baseball diamond with my friend Kim for an hour or so in the afternoon. I don't know what we did for a whole hour out there, with no-one around and not really anything to do.
We devised a way to break into the concession stand (if we really wanted to) and leave no trace, but decided against it.(We couldn't figure out a way to get back over the wall without a ladder.) It'd be bad if we got caught! I don't think there's anything in there to steal since there weren't any ball games this year. Not that I'm thinking of stealing anything, just that if we were to break in and if we were to get caught doing so, I doubt anyone would think we were trying to steal anything.
I might get to babysit Kim and her sister this summer. Kim is 12 (I think) and her sister is 2. Their mom is taking courses at a local college and needs someone to watch them on Thursday nights. I hope I get to do it! Anything just to get out of this house!
We finally got to watch Chicken Little yesterday! That movie was great!! I loved it. I think my favorite character was Fish Out of Water. Especially when he's playing King Kong and flying paper airplanes. It's a good movie.

I have decided to put my butterfly painting project away for now. It's too hot out on the enclosed porch right now to sit out there for long. And the other day while I was putting on the black outlines, my hand was shaking so bad (I haven't the foggiest why) that I was afraid I'd mess up big time. I'll get it out again when it's cooler and I have more time to work on it. Now I can only paint in the early mornings while it's not as hot.

Well, the results from the survey I put up are in. Newsboys won with the most votes (28%), Downhere and Stellar Kart tied for second (with 14% of the votes, each), and in third place is a eight-way tie (Several people commented with their favorites): Air Supply, Foreigner, REO Speedwagon, Dizmas, Number One Gun, Falling Up, Rotterdam November, and Relient K. Five of which I've never heard of. So what's wrong with Sanctus Real and The Afters, people??? They're great! Listen to them, sometime.

I found a cool website the other day. We were walking through Walmart and I came across a bag of Doritos chips, saying 'guessing the flavor is just the beginning' and telling us to go to http://www.snackstrongproductions.com/ for more details. It turns out that the Doritos company was giving away $100,000 to whoever made it through this big long puzzle game. The contest is ended now, but you can still try and figure out the puzzles. When you click on the link it'll take you to a page with what sort of looks like a city. Click on the mountain labeled 'QUEST' at the upper right-hand corner of the page and it'll take you to the start of the puzzles. To save your progress, you have to start an account, which involves giving an email address. We didn't want to give them our real email, so we made up one and they accepted it. I did have to cheat a little bitty bit here and there by googling certain stuff, but hey, it's just a game and it's not like I'd win anything at the end. Even with the answers, it still takes a lot of work to figure it out. If anyone else wants it, I can give you a web address that'll help you with the first five puzzles.
I'm going to go work on the Doritos Challenge now. Have fun out there in Bloggyworld!

P.S. Wow, this is a long post!
P.P.S. I put up a new poll today. You can pick multiple answers so you don't have to pick just one favorite.
