So--hi! I'm home!
And--I have Lots of Stuff, including but not limited to a Random Silly Thing for Snowy that she may or may not appreciate, and a hostess gift for Manon that I think she will really like so I am excited about it. ONLY LIEK THREE WEEKS. :D :D :D
And my socks sent oodles of postcards, by the way, some thirteen or fourteen. And I have lots of photographs, although my camera died halfway through the Nashville Zoo, right after the cougars and the red pandas and before the lorikeets, sadly. I think Aunt J. got photographs of the lorikeets, though, so possibly she will send some to me and I can post them, because SQUEE. THEY WERE WALKING ON ME. ^________^
Also, there was a Bunny who I got to Cuddle and Hold and Squish who was named Geraint (Jerry for short) who I have a ridiculous number of photographs of. He was two weeks old! He opened his eyes Saturday! And we pretended he belonged to me, just for while I was there, so I got to hold him all the time and watch films with him.
Oh! NEW CELEBRITY CRUSH: Sandra Oh. I think she is gorgeous. We watched A Lot of Gray's Anatomy while we were there, in case anybody wondered. And everybody had random favourite characters: Johanna's was O'Malley, and Waen's was The Shepardess (she called her that the entire time) and of course mine was Cristina and I have no earthly idea who Will liked because he was being coy. But I think he liked Addison, too. She was pretty badass.
And everyone made fun of me for liking Peter Ustinov.
We went, we went to the rez three times and there was this huge snapper there and Johanna was scared to death (Johanna is, bizarrely enough, scared of frogs as well as snappers) and so I had to keep telling her that if there was a bear in her swimming pool she'd wait quietly for it to go away before she decided to go for a swim, and that was exactly how the snapper felt about us, so he probably was not going to come out and eat her toes. And then Aunt J. told her that she'd felt the snapper nibble her backside, and that undid all my good work.
AND MY GOD THOSE KIDS ARE OVERSEXED. Just for the record. Sheesh. Every time someone made a joke that was not sexual it honestly came as a surprise, and Johanna was as bad as Will. I do not remember being like this when I was a young teen! They cannot even ride in the same backseat together without groping each other, or accusing each other of groping, or making comments about one another's private bits, and frankly I am not all that keen on sex and smacked both of them several times and told them to shut up, whereupon I got leers and comments about S&M.
Really. Are all twelve-and-fourteen year olds like this?
Finally, or not really finally but I am so tired, I drove five hours on the interstate to-day and my back is killing me, so sort of finally--
I meant to telephone people, I really did, but Nana stole my cell phone (she takes shiny things and hides them, frequently in her shoes), and after two days of search we discovered it in the dishwasher, which had just been run. Repairs are still being made.
