Hey everyone! Jen here... Sorry about that last post- very angst and stupid of me. I have no idea why I wrote all that stuff anyhow! It is gone now... so if you haven't read it- you're lucky and I envy you! HA! Well everything is as slow as molasses and I think I am in a rut right now. I fell in by mistake but I realize that part of my problem was that I cared too much about myself to think about other people. Somehow for some reason that is unknown, it wound up hurting myself. Hm. Sort of like 'Live by the sword, die by the sword.' I am glad that everything has opened my eyes though. There is always a silver lining.
Right now I am in Biology. Oh Joy! I just took the exam: EASY! Ha! I thought exams were supposed to be horrifying and so far, in all my classes, not one to fear yet! I am looking forward to the next semester- we are halfway there! YAHOOS! Well I enjoy most of my school, it is just the drama I hate. Most of the people who I talk to say they hate it too, but they are the source of it!! Idiots! No, if you are reading this, it isn't you, just someone else.
I really want cheesecake right now. Mm. That sounds delicious, scrumcious (sp?), and perfect way to end a bad month. Oh by the way.... HAPPY HALLOWEEN! I am supposed to be Isabella from Twilight after she is changed. Barry did an awesome job dying my hair brown, and I even am wearing 2 shiny vampire teeth (evil chuckle from the back). I am so bored and I hope all of your guys' day is better than mine! Chow!

Nothing Interesting to Name This Post (sorry)
Aloha People Who Read My/Our Blog --
It's a weird, strange, freakish type of five days. But most of the baddness has been for Jen (unfortunately) and so I won't tell you about it. Though I will tell that any prayers you send out to either of us are be-yond highly appreciated. It's hard to cover your friends' backs you know but when, in the Bible, God speaks of Spiritual armor he covers everything except your back, which is where your Christian brothers and sisters belong. I'm doing my best but the more the better, you know?
Any way about my last couple of days. On Friday I went to the football game (in the rain *sigh*) and woohoo WE WON! Go #3 who scored the last touch down (I know like no one's number and even if I did know thhe name that went with that number I wouldn't say it online!)! So we have another game this Friday and I want to go. But I have to work. Which is sad. And I can't skip work to go. Which is also sad. But the reason I can't skip is that I'm going to go to Florida for a week in November. Which is happy. On Saturday I... can't remember what I did during the morning but at night I went to Worldveiw Weekend. It was so so cool. I got to see Ken Hamm (like KEN HAMM!!) speak, you have no idea who he is so I'll link you to the site he works with (along with many many other very smart people who believe in literal Biblical creation) , look around on there a bit, it's impressive. On Sunday there was churchin the AM, my cousin hung with me in the middle and then youth at night. We watched the new Ben Stein movie Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed, it's really good, he interviews a lot of scientists that believe in Darwin's evolutionary theory (smart smart men) and basically asked them about what they believe about the origin of species and none of them had a sensible answer (seriously "piggy-backed on crystals?" where'd the crystals come from?). And that was my weekend! How was you weekend readers? Please feel free to tell me. Or give me you feed back about what you believe about the beginning of th Universe and why! I'm not promising to believe whatever you say but I promise to, at the very least, think about it.
Wow that was the least random post from me thus far... sorry if it dissappoints you! I'll try to be more outta my mind next time but my straight jackets at the cleaners so...
Toodles!!

Less Depressing (a very mcuh more to this sites general theme!)
Hola everybody! -- Barry
Sorry about the major gap in postings this crazy little thing called life got in our way! *lesigh*
Anyway on from crazy things (well probably not but you can hope), there's an election coming up and in Jen's last bolg she asked you about who you were voting for. Know how many responses she got??? ZERO! That's pathetic and sad and... *sigh* (sorry I say *sigh* a lot even when I'm writing non-blog type things, I always feel melodramtic but whatever sorry if it bugs you). In any case, if you won't tell me (us) what you think I'll tell you what I think. GO MCCAIN AND PALIN 2008! NOBAMA!!! OBAMINATION!! hahaha sorry I'm like seriously anti-Obama, he bugs me. Also he's smooth and it'd scare me to have a smooth President, like it'd scare me to have a smooth boyfriend, because you'd never know if you thought what you thought or if he made you think you think what you think, make sense?
Moving on, my life's been good lately... a little bit nutso what with all my ankle stuff and arranging my trips (yep plural) to Florida this year. I get to go once for a week in November and for about three weeks in Feburary, with is awesome to me because if I stop homeschooling next year I might only get to go for a week or less from 2010 on into the entire rest of my life (sad no?). Also Christmas is coming soon and I'm trying to plan my friends and my (semi)annual Christmas bash. This year we're doing a movie-a-thon of all of our Christmas favorites and the not-so-secret-Santa (because we can't keep it secret but don't want to just call it Santa)gift exchange. I love the hols I think they're awesome! It's so fun it starts at like Halloween and then straight through until the first of the new year, *happysigh*, only problem is that I have to get gifts now (like purchase them, I don't mind receiving!lol) and I never know what to give people! We haven't even drawn yet but I still have no clue what I'm going to get whomever I draw! Worse than not know what to get my N.S.S.S.F. (not-so-secret-Santa Friend) is that I have no idea what to get my best guy friend! I was thinking a CD (mix of course because I never buy whole CD's anymore) but I don't know I got him one a coupla years back that I think he really liked but I don't his musical tastes as well now, I just don't know! I've gotten him to good of presents in the past, I just can't top them (for his last birthday I got him these wicked awesome drumsticks, then last Christmas... well last Christmas I thought he stopped liking me so I got him nothing, the B-day before that I got him a hat signed by several players on the Detriot Tigers, including his favorite, and the Christmas before that was the mix CD, so see hard to measure up to)! I don't know, he'll probably like what ever I get him but I want him to like it because of what it is too, not just because of who it's from. I'm whining like a chick...
Wait no I don't say negative things about the female gender anymore so I take that back. I'm reading a book right now about how women have lost sight of the purpose we were created for, it's called Fight Like A Girl and I'm like four chapters in so I'll let you know how it is once I finish it. I'm doing a lot of reading as far as Bible studies right now, and I've got to say I'm loving it! It gives you just a generally better veiw on life and your role in it over all. I've also read a book recently called For Young Women Only which is about guys. And the ladies that wrote the book base pretty much everything they say on what guys said (in an anonymous national survey) and what the Bible says (the two don't always see eye to eye you understand), I've got to say I was fascinated and am now trying to practice some of the things I've read. For example, it talks about how visual guys are and how that's not their fault, it's the way they're wired to be, so dressing slutily (word?) isn't just disrespectful to yourself but to them too, so I've been trying to dress really modestly (rather this extreme than the other, though I never ever ever was the other extreme even a little to my knowledge).
toodles!
