I've woken now to find myself
In the shadows of all I have created
I'm longing to be lost in you
(away from this place I have made)
Won't you take me away from me
Tomorrow we clean, have church at 7 and Theiss/Michalk people over 'till latelate. Christmas Day we're opening "Santa's" presents here and then heading up to Frisco to spend Christmas Day (and the day after) at my aunt and uncle's house. All of mom's family will be up there, so it'll be good.
Monday I pack, Tuesday I leave for Tim's! :-D

Nathan and Kelsey were here Sunday evening through Tuesday morning... that was FUN. I'm glad they got to come down. And now I'm further addicted to Evanescence... thank you, Nathan. ;-)

I think... that's all... Oh wait. Here's a FUNNY quote from Devon, Bekah's best friend:
"Guys, think about Mary for a minute. I mean. She was pregnant... but she was a VIRGIN! I'd be like... 'Dear GOD, *PLEASE* send an angel to my MOTHER!!!'"
You've got me feeling hella good
So let's just keep on dancing
You hold me like you should
So I'm gonna keep on dancing
Happy daaaay!! :-D I made a 1250 on my SAT! Not that... it matters... since I'm not going to college. ;-P But it's still awesomely cool. And m'love Timothy still has a 4.0 GPA. Mwahaha, we're gonna have genuis children... his math and my history/english. ;-)

Anybody know the average rate for puppy training classes is? The Casters have two 5-ish-month-old puppies that are really hyperactive and need training. They're good dogs, they just don't know that jumping all over people is bad. Heh. I'm thinking about offering to train them, but I have NO clue what to charge...

Got my Amazon order today! Weee. It got here fairly fast, for getting free shipping (on orders $25 or more ;-)). So now my Christmas shopping is done, except for Annaloo, who still hasn't given me a list. *pudge*

Off of schoool! w00t w00t! Yesterday was our last day. Off 'till sometime in January, hehe. We all get home from our various winter destinations on the 9th... so we may start the 10th, but we'll see.
+ + +
I need to spend some time with my driving book... I HAVE to get my permit by January 10th... I don't wanna take an actual driving test with an instructor, which is what I would have to do if I get my licence after I'm 18. Bah. 20 chapters by December 28th? I can do that...
Come on baby, baby let's go
Where we get the money honey I don't know
One more baby's alright by me
We'll just add another limb to the family tree
Frederick Wilhelm David Thomas Stuckwisch was booorn this mooorning!! :-D I'm a godsister! ;D Happy days!
And yes, that song is the Stuckwisch's theme song. ;-)

Took off of school today to clean house. Everything's nice and sparkly now! We decorated the ADVENT tree (it will magically become the CHRISTMAS tree on Christmas Eve ;-P) and the living room/entry/etc last night - it looks so puuurdy. :-D Getting into the mood now, finally. Tomorrow mom's taking me shopping for people's presents. :-)
+ + +
I took the SAT last Saturday... I think I did pretty well on it, I'll get my scores back on the 17th. I made a 1330 on the practice test, so hopefully I won't make much less than that on the actual test. Not that it matters, since I'm not going to college anyway. ;-) But still, it'd be nice.

I reallyreally like Creed. Not such a fan of Alter Bridge... but I love Creed. I want their Human Clay CD. Speaking of CDs, I also want the Village soundtrack. I've almost bought it like... twice... but I keep talking myself out of it due to lack of money. ;-)
Lately I've rediscovered Baroque choral music. MAN that stuff is gorgeous! There's these two pieces on my Norton's Anthology of Western Music CDs that are just... amazing. I LOVE classical music! :-D
Hello, hello (hola!)
I'm at a place called Vertigo
It's everything I wish I didn't know
Except you give me something
I can feel
I can feel your love teaching me
Your love is teaching me
How to kneel
I'm baaaack! :-) I had a TON of fun at Anna's... *grins* If you wanna know stuff we did, you can IM me - I'm too lazy to type it out here. ;-P
+ + +
I got caught up on all my stuff except MH mail... 199 emails. *groan* I s'pose I'll work on that today or tomorrow... I also need to do email totals for, what, November? Maybe October, I can't remember.
+ + +
Nathan and Kelsey are coming!! w00t! :-D December 19th - 21st. Then there's Christmas, and then I go to Maryland the 28th! I'm so loving this fall/winter. Got to see the Stuckwischs in October, Anna in November, and Nathan, Kelsey and Tim in December! Mom, dad, Bekah and Hanna are driving up to South Bend in January for the baby's baptism (mom and dad are going to be the baby's godparents) while I'm in Maryland... I'm kinda disappointed about not getting to see the baby (and Beeean!), but hey. I'll be with Tim, so yeah. ;-)
+ + +
Right when I get back from Maryland I'll get my permit... I have to get it before January 12th or I'll have to do some sort of different test because I'll get my liscence after I'm 18. As long as I get my permit before the 12th, I'll be able to get in the 6 months of driving time and get my liscence before my b-day in June. Sooo, I just have to read the Texas instruction book thingy before I leave on the 28th, and it'll all be good.
+ + +
Current reading listish thing...
Jerusalem's Heart (finish)
Thunder from Jerusalem
War and Peace
Mandie books 35-40 (light reading)
The Book of Lost Tales I
The Shaping of Middle-Earth
Somewhere in there I may read The Ark and The Black Arrow, too, since I've been wanting to re-read those for awhile. And I'm also being pestered to read Watership Down and the Series of Unfortunate Events, so those will get thrown in somewhere in the middle, or at the end. ;-) I need to get going, though... I haven't just sat down to read in quite awhile. Hopefully I'll have some time to do that over Christmas break.
Aaaand I believe that's it! PANTS! :-D
