Saturday

Weird. Saturday. Okay. Good I did spell it right. For some reason I couldn't remember how to spell it!

So I've started making stepeheniemeyer.com one of my daily checks for website. I've always seen this book randomly on there but never knew what it was about. So anyway, it is coming out May 6th? I think. BUT- what caught me was...they put an excerpt from the book online. I decided to read it since I had nothing better to do and it was actaully way good. I totally want to read this book when it comes out. From what I can tell, it is about these "souls" who invade earth and take over people's bodies. Now I know that sounds way creepy...but when I was reading it, it didn't feel creepy. Anyway, I think...THINK, the souls eventually don't feel the human's feelings or memories after a while, but there is one soul that has kept feeling these human's feelings- there is a boy/man that finds her and thinks she is still all human. (there is like a war or something and the souls win...there are few REAL humans left...this is sounding way corny and stupid when I explain it but I am telling you, just read the excerpt. ) anyway, the soul is experiencing human things and I am thinking she is experiencing love with this man that thinks she is still human. Make sense? Probably not. The point is, it sounds pretty good. Besides, it will be a good fill while waiting for twilight in AUGUST! yessssssssss! I guess it's actually called something else that has now left my brain. Gosh what is with me?

I am feeling a little bummed this weekend simply because I know that my entire family is hanging out right now except me. I'm trying not to think on that too hard though. It's good that they get to see each other.



I only have 2 months left of my internship. Hooray and Huzzah! Oh yeah- I totally said something about politics the other day. I probably sounded like an idiot. Anyway, they were talking about how retarded it was that republicans were supposed to be conservative and good with money and that when Clinton was president the budget was good( or something like that) and that as soon as Bush gets in we go to war and have a huge deficit. Well- I just wouldn't have that because my mamma and pappa taught me well. And Bill O' Reiley:) I said...ever so timidly... well, I think that if some presidents didn't ignore the fact that terrorists were about, we were getting threats, and that we needed to take action, 9/11 could have been avoided...that maybe the reason we had to go to war and had to go into a deficit is because the Clinton administration played it so that everything would look nice from the outside but on the inside there were many warning signs and big set ups for what came after he was gone. I said something like that anyway. Then the boy said- "YEAH! I've actually heard that before.." Then she says, "well that is true, I just don't see why we had to go to Iraq. The terrorists didn't come from there!" So what I WANTED to say, was: "HELLO?!?!!?!?!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE HAD PROOF that Suddam Hussein was in cahoots with the terrorists, he himself was a TERROR to his own people, he was a HORRIBLE person to have on this earth. The people were basically slaves, it would've been a situation where in teh future, if we hadn't done something, we would all say- WHAT WERE WE THINKING?!?! Where was the USA? They could've done something! Well, even if Iraq isn't where the terrorists of 9/11 came from, there are still terrorists and groups that are a complete threat to us and the entire world." Okay, but I didn't say that. I just thought it and breathed in and out. I just don't want to cause contention.

I was looking online and thought this was funny.



Alright. I guess I will go read or something. Love you all!!!!!!!!

Okay now I want to read that book...I probably will because, like you said, it's something to do before the last book comes out.

Good job on speaking your mind...don't be timid!

Hey girl thanks for the advice. It does make me uncomfortable,but he just ignores me when i talk about it. It will be ok. If it goes any further i will say something,but i want to make sure that i wont be angry at the time. She comes over on sunday every week so tomorrow i will watch her,but still interact with the family.I love that you stick to what you believe and what you were taught. Everyone has their views,but you are the only person i know who will stand up for their beliefs. I have always like that about you. I love you and miss you. I wish we lived closer together.

Love the Hillary pic!! I'm afraid she's a goner. Dad says she would be so much easier to beat.

I don't' know about the book, sounds strange. I'll let you be the pioneer!

Good for you for standing up for your beliefs, it sounds like you handled it well!
love you!
