Life in General
Mar. 1st, 2009 01:13 amSo today Mom and I went to PETCO to return some cat food and buy some. Plus we got Buddy a treat ball. When I gave it to him a second time tonight he only got two of the treats out before he gave up. There was only one left! Lazy bones! We also got him some crinkle balls. He enjoys those too. He still needs more toys tho because he's still playing with his food when he's in a playful mood. We think he didn't get enough toys to play with at the SPCA.
I also knitted a bunch. I don't know how many squares I actually got done today. But I have 7 or 8 out of 30 done. Well, it's more like out of 60 because I have to make 2 since the sister is having twins in about 6 months. So ya know.
I also wrote a couple of pages in chapter nine of Collide. That made me happy. I really want to get it done. I haven't finished a story in a while. Okay strike that. The end of last year I finished a story called These Memories, I Still Feel Them on My Lips. It was only, like, 5 parts.
What else did I do today? Oh, that's right. I bought some songs on iTunes and wanted to kill it for downloading so slowly. At least it had finished by the time I was done with dinner.
Then I watched the Lifetime movie premiere of Rosie O'Donnell's new movie America. It was really good. It's about a kid that's been in foster care since birth. Now he's 17 and about to age out of the system. Rosie is his therapist. It's a really touching movie. At the end it showed statistics on foster kids. It said that over half a million kids in this country are in foster care. A hundred thousand are waiting to be adopted. It also said that 2 out of 10 kids that age out of the system make it in this world. To be a good citizen. The other 8..... Well, they end up homeless, in jail of dead. I almost cried at the end. It was a really great movie which started again as soon as the first showing ended. It's only 49 minutes into the movie. I suggest everyone to watch this movie. It's pretty awesome.
Well I have to bs off to bed.
Sweet dreams
No nightmares
Ps we didn't get our wii or wii fit. My mom gets paranoid when buying something that expensive.
I'm falling asleep as I type this. My sleeping pills must be kicking in right about now.
See u in the AM
Love,
