Awesome!!! Lucky you!!!

My prayers will be for your Uncle Bob. Hope he continues on the road to good health. Did your roomies clean out the cage really, REALLY well before they put the new chinchilla into it? Please have them do more research, and if they cannot find the answers they need, I have a close friend who owns a pet store. They can get excellent information with just a phone call to his store. He is an expert with chinchillas. Shane sounds like the type of guy you deserve. A guy who is willing to go the extra mile for you. Bus, train, etc., now that sounds like a guy who is most interested. You deserve a guy who will treat you like a princess. Hope he and you find you want to date... he sounds like a nice guy.

*hands TBFOF The Blue Moon Award* Those are phenomenal photographs. I love them all!!! What a spectacular view!!! The picture from the sidewalk shows such creativity. That is such a great picture. Thank you for posting them. Thank you! I keep forgetting to resize them! Three more outstanding pictures!!! Resizing... that would help a little. By the way... that last picture has a bike rack that would make that the perfect bike for Jesse.

Staying informed, voting, all great ways to implement change.

You get a bike lock and chain it to something outside. Also, invite them over to *your* place sometime. Great advice. Texting is such an easy way to stay in touch. It is actually much easier than picking up the phone. Definitely not tagging along, but just staying in touch. The bike with a backpack might take about five minutes of getting used to. Once you have the straps adjusted to where the backpack fits you properly, then the backpack becomes a non-event. You feel the weight, but then you forget about it. This is very similar to having a backpack on my motorcycle. I had to make sure that it didn't slide around across my back. Once I adjusted the straps, it took about five minutes because of the weight, then I forgot about it. Mathematics textbooks seem to be about five times thicker than every other course.

Haha. It doesn't bother me anymore. ~Liz That's good news. As a matter of fact, I thought about you yesterday. I found an old Elton John album. Are you still looking for those? I have pretty much a complete collection now, so unless it's the "Thom Bell Sessions" ep, I have it. Thanks for thinking of me, though! Which one is it? ~Liz Actually, I found two. I will get the names for you later my brain is fried at the moment.

Yes, it has been a long while! But you have posted with such a terrific post, that I'm happy to see life is treating you well!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Your permit! Now you should be feeling pretty good. Sorry that fall break is over, but drama club will make you smile! As for all the other news... glad things are going great for you.

What?

Great, inspirational poem. Thank you for posting.

I was thinking of the same ideas Jesusfreak was. Texting is a fantastic way to keep up to date on things that are happening. You have just started school, perhaps things will improve. Bicycles are a phenomenal way to get around.

I'm friends with a few of my ex's. and as of last night at the homecoming game i have a current tonight's the dance, but I'm not sure if he's going. he decided last week he wouldn't so I'm not sure if he'll change his mind now that we're together. I'll have fun anyways, lots of my friends are going and one of my best friends that moved away over summer just flew in last night to go to the dance so I'm excited to see her. oh and we one our game, when i left at the beginning of the 4th quarter we were winning 31 to 8 i told my parents they had to come to the show so they could see what i did. haha. but i'll take pictures after fall break Yeah for pictures! Congratulations on the win!!! It is always nice to see old friends. haha, we had work days over fall break, but i didn't have a ride. and i'm a loser and i'm sixteen and i don't have my license. i'll get pictures once school starts up, it's gonna be awesome Sorry you missed the work days over fall break. Not having a ride is tough. You are NOT a loser! Not everyone has their license when they turn sixteen. Throw that notion out the window. You are just feeling a little pressure. I can wait for pictures! It WILL be awesome!!!

Sounds like your life does not have a spare moment! Thanks for posting the awesome poems! You are so talented!!! They are phenomenal!!! *hands Krisluvsdogs The Red Rose Award*

I tried that and it still didn't work. I must have missed something. Let me go back and look.

Outstanding story. I tried to fix the italics, but I could not find where there might be a problem. If you want I could try and break it up into two posts to see if that helped. Anyway, your story is absolutely phenomenal. Please do continue.

When I found the Elton John album, I also found a two year old issue of People Magazine with a picture of Elton getting married.

For theatre majors... Wagner College on Staten Island has an excellent theatre department.

Those sound like great schools!!! All of those would be great to attend. Homecoming King... how awesome! TBFOF you rock!!! Pictures... we want pictures. How about one of the bleach dyed shirt!!! Please!!! Nice to know that things are going great for you. You really deserve a great life.

Truer words have never been spoken. Some people could have an almost perfect life and they would complain about that. Amazing.

I think that TBFOF has taken a picture of that bridge. Of course, he has taken lots of pictures of various bridges. One of my favorite things is to jog across bridges. Pittsburgh, Harrisburg, Cincinnati are a few examples.

Haha. It doesn't bother me anymore. ~Liz That's good news. As a matter of fact, I thought about you yesterday. I found an old Elton John album. Are you still looking for those?

I showed you a picture of me in my Wonder Woman outfit, in the human form, and also in the hamster form. Besides if you saw the real me, you might never post here again. The photograph just might scare you away.

True!
