El Mono

This is me.
This is my murderous cousin. He is currently serving time in the zoo for bad behavior.
We don't expect to hear of a release date anytime soon.

Just to let you know, this is another joke that originated from my goofy answers that I tend to give. In my Spanish class, our conversation time comes straight from the book and it tends to get a little boring. So I started making up my own questions using the term "el mono,' which means "the monkey." Now, the other two girls in my class kind of expect me to ask with "el mono' in the sentence, and they have also started using other animals, like la vaca (the cow), and el puerco (the pig), and el pollo (the chicken). There are some girls that are known as monkeys (not very literally), and they each have their names. Well, I decided to be a spider monkey, and today, I was named... El Mono! It's not the disease, mono (MAH-noh), it is mono (MOH-noh). Just to clear that up. I klnow this is stupid and going onm forever, but just thought I'd share. I haven't written in forever anyway, and you're probably wondering where I've been anyway. So now I have posted for you.

It's Me!

Well anyway! This is me for you poor people who have never seen my picture on this blog! Haven't you been so underprivileged? J/K. Anyway, I just thought I'd post this for you. I'm the tall, darker haired one in the pink...not that y'all don't know that already but thought I'd share.
P.S. I stole this from Callie's blog, in case you were wondering.

Homecoming

Hey, peeps! Tomorrow is homecoming. This week we've been working on our booth, practicing our songs for choir, and trying to remain a Chrsitian among all circumstances. Sheesh! I feel like I'm in the middle in just about everything. Hopefully, our booth will turn out nice and we will all remember our songs and everything will turn out well. Our class, the seniors, are doing a Western theme. We'll all be dressed in Western outfits. I'm wearing a black cowboy hat, black boots, a black bandana, black leather vest, fringed/beaded shirt, and long jean skirt. Our booth will be selling hamburgers, baked beans, corn on the cob, and I think some beverages too. Don't worry... they are not the adult beverages. Pray that everything goes well with our booths and the song service.

Frankie

I forgot that there may be people who do not know who Frankie is. Don't worry, Charlotte; it's nothing serious. Frankie was invented some time last year. Monte was being silly last summer, and asked our Sunday school class if any of us got married or anything over the weekend. I said that I had, and that's where the invention of Frankie occurred. I do not know why I chose the name Frankie (guess i just like the name at the time), but as a joke I have developed the story further. There have been rumors that Frankie an I are divorced. They are untrue. Last year for Consumer Math, we were given a project in which we had to have spouses and children. Once a week, we would draw chance cards, and occasionally, a child would be added to our family. By the end of the project, I had four kids. So for our tax papers, I named them. So this is how things are.
Frankie Jones, Junior, is my husband. Joshua Seth is my oldest. Then is Caleb Jordan. Then Elizabeth Renae. Then Heather Nichole.
So that is my explanation of Frankie.

Wedded Bliss!

No dear viewers, I did not get married over the weekend. (Frankie and I are doing just fine. I think most of you know who Frankie is.)
However, I did play at a wedding Saturday. I really did not know the family. The groom's great- aunt was the only person in the family that I knew, and unfortunately, she didn't come. It all went pretty well except for the fact that the seven bridesmaids were standing right in front of me, and I didn't know that the flower girl had not come down yet. I stopped playing, only to begin playing again. The flower girl did not even end up sprinkling the petals down the aisle; her mother, the matron of honor, pretty much had to walk her daughter down the aisle. Other than that, the wedding went okay. It was a pretty nice gig for fifty dollars. I was shocked.
I will do my best to keep you updated on the boring facts of my life as much as possible. Who knows? Maybe I'll have more exciting things happen soon.

Dear Blog Viewers,

So terribly sorry I haven't been able to write anything new on here. I've been busy with school and other various unimportant things such as that, so my correspondence is sadly lacking. I'm doing pretty good with school. Life is interesting to say the least. Tonight I have a rehearsal for a wedding that I'm supposed to play for. Last night is was after one o'clock before I was able to go to sleep. Great! I know you'll all be extremely proud of me... I've been driving! I don't think I'll drive today as we're in a big hurry so I can get home in time for my ride to the rehearsal. I'm actually writing this in my Spanish three class. We got done early today, so I had some extra time. Seriously, this is the first time I've had the opportunity to do this. They won't let us get on here as much as they used to. They've been cracking down on us more this year.
I'll do my best to stay in touch and try to keep up with all of your blogs too.
Apologetically,
Amy

School Days

Well, the lazy , hazy days of summer have passed us by, and all we teenagers are back in school.
Today is the first day of a three day weekend. This Monday is Labor Day for those of you who might have forgotten. I am doing just fine in school (if you were wondering), and don't have to take advanced math or Physics now! The way things worked out was really great. So now I'm not so stressed. I am actually having fun and enjoying all the new teachers. They are really great! I'm enjoying getting to see familiar faces on campus once again, and seeing some "new" ones such as Amber Cutler, Gretchen Pickett, Ezra Byer and John Lee.
I had one of my spells Wednesday night and only got two hours of sleep. It was awful. The doctor couldn't find anything wrong with me on the test she did, so she is trying something else. It may be due to the food I eat, and she gave me some medicine to use when I have my "attacks."
Just to let you know, if you already didn't know, Oscar Johnson passed away. I really love that man. He was the closest thing to perfect I ever saw, and I'm sure he's in heaven now. If anyone would have made it, it would have been Oscar.

Since this Monday is Labor Day, WEBN is putting on fireworks Sunday night. I think I'm going to be able to go with Kyle to see them. I went with him and the Miles and some other people last year, and even with all the walking we did, it was lots of fun. Have a wonderful holiday weekend! Enjoy!
