Mondays Weekend Too

Yay for three day weekends. Without them I would perish. I'm really happy about how mines been going, Yesterday mom and I spent the day running errands and shopping which was nice. We ended up buying a hammock which we've been wanting to get for awhile. It's now set up in our basement because it was rainy yesterday and even though we wanted to get it out we didn't want to get it wet. So I got it out in the basement. It's really really big though. We didn't realize the size of what we'd bought until we put it up. Anyway, I think I'll take it apart and move it outside later. Oh ya. My guitar got here on Thursday and I've been playing around with it since. I'm really happy about my purchase. I've never taken lessons before and I don't plan to though. I'm just going to be playing around with it, and reading about it online. Today is a good day. It's really nice and sunny out, and the temp is although chilly probably gonna get a bit warmer. Sigh* I love three day weekends. Even on Sunday I don't have to worry about how I'll spend my day, because I still have Monday to laze around on too.

I Promise That I'm Not Wasting Trees

Ok now I am completely convinced that we (as in me, laura obviously because she is a great singer, eric too cause we all know he can sing also(perhaps the part of the guy with mustard on his pants because that's a large part that needs to be filled and my thoughts are that we may have trouble getting some guys to do it), emma, and natalie, and sophia, and sheen and whoever else I can drag into a part will also be made a part of this) as I was saying before that ginormous parantheyse bubble, that we need to do "Can I Get A Napkin (Please)" for the talent show next year. It's perfect. The music is good, it's comedy, it's music, it's acting, and it's very easy to sing. Plus they offer the lyrics and backround instrumental to the song on the Improv Everywhere website. (I have now downloaded these essentials) Unfortunately it doesn't provide sheet music but that's okay because it has very simple pitches and since the backround music is provided you don't need to record your own or something. It's so perfect for the talent show. We've got to do it!! I will remember this till next year and I will beg (if need be, force=P) you all to do it.

Here's the song as the two guys who made it sang it through with the instrumental music it goes with.

Business Days

Well, I suppose that I should inform you that since the fever on Friday, I'm no longer sick. But now Spencer is. He caught my... 24 houritis illness which otherwise lacks a name but do to it's recent spreading it will probably earn itself a shiny new scientifical one, but for now it goes by the 24 houritis illness. Anyway, Spencer now has my 24 houritis illness complete with all the unwanted dressings, like the buns on a carb-counter's burger. Apparently, it's been going around our school. It's gone through students, and teachers who still came to school with a slight fever, and whom endangered my health! But now I am immune (I hope) seeing as I have already caught it. So everyone, I'd be a little careful for the next few weeks because this 24 houritis illness is attacking the schools. Remember to wash your hands, don't get coughed or sneezed on, wear a surgical mask to school, and everything will be alright. Ok so now that my advice on keeping healthy has been used up I'd just like to tell you that I hate business days! No, not like going to school or working. I hate business days for shipping. That's what you get with free shipping, it'll reach you in 4 business days which are from Monday to Friday, not on weekends, and not on holidays. I ordered my guitar online. It is a bargain guitar, not likely to play super well, not likely to last, but enough for me decide whether I want to buy the more like $100 kind(or at least put the $100 on my wish list) I ordered my guitar Wednesday night, so I'm going to likely get this guitar on late Monday or Tuesday. Phooey. Oh well, I can wait.

Diiiiet Soda, spilt across the counter top, there's ice and soda everywheeere now, I gotta clean it up.

That's the beginning of an awesome musical song, "Can I Get a Napkin(Please)" made for a prank done by Improv Everywhere. Never heard of Improv Everywhere? Here's a link! http://improveverywhere.com/ ... I wish I lived in New York City. That's where they're situated. (they have an improv everywhere global but there isn't a single good group near us) Why am I kept from being a part of this? The things they do are hilarious. Just surf their various missions. The mission this one was from is called "Food Court Musical" I think it would be a fun thing to do for the talent show.

Desert Feeling

Well, now I have a fever. When will the torture end? I'm at 100.7 last time I checked but it feels worse. It's kind of funny about the new colors on Mr. C's blog because they are probably the exact colors of my illness. Green for vomit and a burnt desert orange for the heat. This doesn't make them bad colors though. Gasp* I feel like I'm in the Sahara Desert. I'd been laying in bed since around 11. So I'd been just laying there, burning up, for almost six hours... I think. I haven't been thinking quite clearly. I kept saying to myself that I should get up and post or do something, but the heat was just making me too tired. Ugh, I just feel awful. My face is telling me to dip it in a sinkful of cold water. I think I'll just go get a nice cold wettish washcloth when I'm done posting. Mmmm, that sounds good. I'm also hungry. All I've had today was half a banana and like 3 glasses of water and two of sprite. I'm suprised I'm not dead already. First exhaustion and hunger, then heat and exhaustion and hunger. I can feel myself slipping. I guess now would be a good time for that washcloth. See ya.

Oh My

Well, last night, from midnight to around 4 in the morning, I spent my time projectile vomiting and having diarrhea. EEEW! I won't give any disgusting details because I'm still woozy as it is. But a more proper description for my night was, exhausting. I got up at least 15 times to puke and or do business. Quite awful. I felt like I was going to die from exhaustion or dehydration before the night was over because I couldn't get any sleep cause I kept having to get up, and I couldn't drink anything because I'd end up rejecting it and oh great more vomit! So now I'm really tired, obviously not at school, and drinking some sprite my mom got me because you know even if I throw it up again later I'll at least have gotten some calories, plus it's settling my stomach a little. Unfortunately I really just have to stay sitting still. If I walk around to much I get sickish again. I think I'm going to be losing some sprite and banana soon. (my meager, only food I could keep down, breakfast) I'm trying to keep it down, because I'm still starving but if I eat to much it's back the toilet for me. Groan* My stomach hurts. Also, I was wondering why everything in my life these days is being prophesied. For instance, in the two days before the earthquake we had an earthquake drill and the very day before it happened my mom was talking to our neighbor from California saying that we don't have all those earthquakes here as they do in California. And now the day before my vomiting spree, in science class we were talking about vomiting and I told the story of Spencer's morning vomit escapade. One thing I keep relating my illness to is this card a guy made among others on his site that explains the "1000 Blank White Cards" game. Here's the site to look at... http://www.geocities.com/nconner23/bwcards.html The card is on the site. Just scroll down. You'll be able to tell which one I'm relating to.


This is a little after I just finished this post. I've decided not to double post and just add on here. I was looking around my blog and, guys remember on "The Thing About Fancy Restaurants" when someone posted anonymous and said they were Laura but it wasn't Laura? Well, obviously this is the same pest who said my blog was good or something like that and we still don't know who it is. Also back to my phrase from the other day, heck, I just don't care. I don't mind having someone I don't know on my blog. Hmm. It seems as though I should, but my guess is that I have some relation to this person because otherwise if were someone who I didn't know, they would put their name. Plus, I think the anonymous person left, or died, or fell down a well and broke their spine, oooor...Whatever. Heck, I just don't care! And now I'm off to vomit and have diarrhea. Urrrg, I hate sickness.

In Limited Stores

Hello all. Everything seems to be a little more focused right now than that last post was. I wasn't in a very good mood when I wrote that. Not necessarily happy but not sad or angry. Just bored... and really tired. I think naps are a very impostant thing. So is music. Hmmm, still a little rambly. That's been happening often recently. Not sure why but I'm talking a lot again. I remember around last or last last year I just didn't talk as much. But before that I wouldn't shut up. And Now again I wouldn't shut up. For awhile I just didn't talk nearly as much as my old blabbering and current blabbering self. But now I'm back to "Gemma the girl who never shuts up, and who is always bothering people with her constant incessant talkyness" which is fine by me. Though sometimes I can't get my point across on one thing at a time because thoughts and things I'm supposed to say and stuff I need to mention always pop up in the way of my original topic. Anyway, today in band Mrs. Pote (the band teacher) was telling us about how her son were talking about cat names for the cat they're planning to adopt sometime this year. Three names her son had chosen were Twinkle Sparkle and Rocko. She asked him where he thought of Rocko and he told her he meant like "Rocko Bama"(Barack Obama) Hehe. Hmmm. Oh ya! Happy Happy Half Day!! I love half days. I needed this one alot because for some reason on Monday at the end of the day I kept talking about how I was so happy it was Friday. I don't know why, it just felt like Friday! This is kind of like me forgetting my age, and also forgetting my art teachers name. I think I have a tumour or some sort of parasitic legion that is eating away at my brain. (haha. fun right?) Before I finish up this post I also need to tell you about my need for an acoustic guitar. I'm not sure why but I have the constant need to learn to play the guitar. I really like how they sound and I often enjoy fiddling with my cousin Kelsey's. And various others I can get my hands on. Oh ya, Kelsey is now in her friends band. Cool right? (Apparently. No really I'm guessing they're pretty good. She recently got an electric guitar (and she had an acoustic before) well not that recently. But anyway she plays very well so I'm sure they're doing well as a band.) Anyway, to get to the point. I'm planning on getting an beginners acoustic guitar likely black or a coffee brown that fades into the middle. (Kelsey's acoustic is really cool. Aqua blueish dark on the outside getting lighter as it goes in but not much lighter. It's very nice, but I'm going for more likely black or very dark brown.) My mom and I have decided that depending on the price, she'll pay half and I'll pay half for the guitar. Unfortunately I'm pretty broke. $153 dollars is all I have(boohoo)(Once I finish my book of poetry and start up my online business on which I will sell the amazing, awesome, super fuzzy, super cute plushies and scented trademark "Sachettes" that I sew, I will become rich, or at least I'll have some money.) I still don't understand though, how Spencer has accumulated somewhere around $800 and counting. So back to the topic of guitars. They actually sell them at Walmart and Target. And they're nice guitars and guitar packs. Obviously not a professional type thing, but something for someone who wants to learn as an offhand hobby. At Walmart there is this really nice black guitar. It comes in a pack with a stand, 3 picks, a tuner, and extra strings. It's a good size. And all the reviews said it's very nice... And it's only $67.88!!! Yay! Must buy! This is by-far the best one I've seen. But wait! What's this? OUT OF STOCK ONLINE?!?!?! WHYYYYY?!?! So later Mom and I are going to Walmart to look at guitars. I will be praying that our Walmart is one of those "In Limited Stores" that has this amazingly in my budget, just right, beautifully perfect, guitar pack.

Walking In From All Directions

There are many things that bother others, things that unsettle them, that I don't even give a second thought. I guess it's mainly because, heck, I really don't care. Plus I am often thoroughly assured by my own precautions that I am perfectly safe. Ya. You just heard the gears in my head turning. Yep, I'm pretty sure that's what that little bit of drivel was. And now all this mindless confusion. I'm sorry, I'm not thinking straight. Dunno why. Too many different thoughts, too many ideas filtering in at once. Maybe I'm just tired. Obviously that would explain some of my lack of detail, and my rambling. I mean as I type this I'm guessing that I sound a screw too many loose. Maybe not. I certainley feel confused. I'm drousy. I am currently unable to stay on and explain one topic. Hmmm, this does not make for good blogging material. Oh but wait! This revisits my first statement. Heck, I really don't care. I'm bored and I don't feel like working with math homework and oh great just realized my project due tomorrow. Oh well, I'm basically done. Well, since I have nothing else too say, see ya.
