Fluffy 2

I saw the cutest white and black fluffy cat today. It was after bookstudy. I was walking to the car and Andy pointed it out. It was so cute. I was warned that it was a stray cat and could/probably would give me rabies. But it was sooo cute. I picked it up and it was really friskey. Then my mom yelled at me to put the thing down before I get a disease. I really want to try to give a kitten a ton of caffeine and see if it will stop growing and remain a small cat. That would be the best invention EVER. It would be like everlasting Kittens.

=( Drama Tryouts, Updated

I got a very bad part in the pirate play. I wanted to be a pirate, but no, I am one of the main character's mother and I am married to a rather large 6th grader. Not Good. I am very disappointed and I wouldn't mind quiting, but I'll stick it out. I only have 60 lines, yes ONLY 60 pitiful little lines, and I don't come on until more than half way throught the 1st scene. I really wanted a part were I could use my pirate accent. Hmm. I think I will just have this character that I got a really weird southern accent since she is from America. I really don;t like this part. When I was practicing for my auditions I didn't even consider trying to give this person a neat voice. She was so boring I simply passed over her. The part I in particular wanted went to this, another rather LARGE, actually vary large 6th grader. The drama teacher gave her 3 kids the best part. Like her son got the main guy who has 163 lines. Her daughter got this one cool poetic pirate, Dandy. Her youngest son got this one part parrot who gets to mimick everyone.

Drama Auditons

Yesterday I had drama auditions. It went really well. I had read the play book at least 3 times and I had practiced accents weeks ahead of time. When I got to the auditons (after school, in the gym.) I rolled up my sweat pants and aw what do you I was wearing grey stripish knee socks(to give myself a little bit of a pirate look). I originally wanted to be Sarah Huffington. She is a rich girl, who wants to marry a pirate and she is bored with her life, so she goes and searches for this pirate Bluebeard(who is actually a retired not so cool guy.) Now she is the best girl a part in the play(she has the mst lines)and the play itself is kind of naemd after her(Jolly Rodger and "the pirate queen") SHe is the pirate queen. I changed my mind about being her. First of all I don't have the same appreciation for her lines as other kids do. Second, I really like this one part of Long John Sliver. He is the real pirate, who has a reall thick accent, and gets to tutor this other guy to be a pirate so he can make Sarah fall in love wit him.

My favorite part would have to be this guy Dandy(yes he is named afer my cat, who is named after...)He is a poetic pirate, who says a few monologes that rhym, but they are very funny. He only has 50 lines though, which I don't really think is worth it cuz we have to have practices for about 4 months. But I wouldn't be disappointed if I got that part.

We find out who got what part on monday. Gives me time to build up lots of anticipation.


MMMmm I love coming home to Java coffee ice cream in the freezer. Yummy!

New suspect

Mr. Janitor guy didn't do the crime. So that leaves the Evil Science teacher. I suspected her from the start.

My OUST has been stolen.

Today I got to school and it smelt as usual. Awful! I went to the bathroom to spray my bottle of OUST everywhere. And Oh no!! My bottle of oust which I paid for with my own money which cost 4$ dollars was gone!. I asked the teacher if she knew where my oust was and she said"no." And then referred me to the other teacher. Well during the afternoon I told the other teacher whom I was referred to "I put a bottle of OUST in the girls bathroom because it smelt really bad. But now my bottle oust is gone. DO you know where it is?" She said "no. Maybe the janitor did something with it." OK well I walk around the class room looking for my oust. And I can't find it anywhere. I have no more work so I try to read a book, but I cannot possibly bring myself to read this book when I am thinking where on earth could my bottle of OUST be? A little later I ask my teacher if I could ask the janitor if he might know where my oust was. Well basically she told I had no business bringing oust to school and to defenently not bother the janitor. Psh. I SO did. If anyone has to sit in that smelly classroom all day they deserve a bottle of oust. And then I told her I didn't think it would affect anyone thus I didn't think it would be a big deal at all. And that its non carcinogenic so it wouldn't be hurting anyone. Nope she didn't care. And then she went on to talk about how she is a "febreze girl". (No I respectfully did not tell her of my opinion of febreze.)

The Google Geeks

So my scheme was unsuccesful.
No more need to give me "skcilca"(pig latin for that secret word which I can't say because the evil google geeks might see it and hunt me down and then who knows what. I might even take one of 'em geeks on.). That's my new name for them "The Evil Google Geeks". They certainly are evil. I was up to $48 and psh. Gone. Oh well, life goes on. Today was a very relaxed day. Nothing to drastic. Nothing to exciteful. Thus the reason for my short post.

Chiropractic Care. For Better, For Worse?

Many people are saying that Chiropractic care is an unsafe and unreliable health decision. I think otherwise. Yes, Chiropractic care may have it's downplays but in the long run it is the best form of western medicine we can give to our bodies. Chiropractor don't have a very big field to cover. They stick to what they know and do not exceed into others doctors business. Chiropractors for that reason are respected by Family health doctors. What do Chiropractors exactly do?

Chiropractors receive a general education on human physiology and biology, but their main focus is the spinal column. Chiropractors believe that the vertebrae of the spine and neck are routinely pulled out of alignment by everyday stressors, and these misalignments (called subluxations) can be the root cause of a myriad of physical and mental ailments. By physically manipulating individual vertebrae or readjusting the entire spine, chiropractors hope to relieve pressure caused by subluxations.

Critics of the Chiropractic profession point to all of this spinal manipulation as a potentially dangerous practice. Almost all joints will generate a satisfying 'pop' as gases in the cartilage are released. This doesn't mean the joint is more aligned than before the manipulation. Neck vertebrae are especially vulnerable to fractures leading to paralysis, so chiropractors constantly run the risk of causing serious injury for relatively few proven health benefits.

My conclusion...

Web Design In Central Florida

Web designers in Central Florida are charging way too much for simple web pages. They charge crazy amounts for such simple pages that a child could make in a week (if the child has DSL). If you just skip going to the local web designer and create the page yourself you could save thousands. All you need to create your own web design are very few. A good fast computer, a DSL internet connection, and a self explanatory book that you can get from the library.

Sounds pretty simple right? Then why do web designers charge so much for these simple pages? Because they can. The thought of having to do something new that they are not familiar with sounds way to burdensome for a lot of people. To everyone who's not too familiar with web design, "It's not that hard." Get yourself a book. Give yourself a solid afternoon. Save $ thousands.
