Blogging? What's that again?

Knock, knock.

"Oh, hi! It's so nice to see you!"

"Definitely. We haven't seen you in forever, Abby."

"Oops. Sorry. I've been kind of busy, finishing school, and finishing school. You know."

"Of course. No apology necessary. So how was Independence Day?"

"Great, we saw some fireworks, even though it was raining, and we went to a friend's house and we ate some food, and we almost swam in the pool, but it was raining again, so we didn't get to."

"Cool."

"Yep, it was fun."

"Mmm-hmm. And how many days until summer break for you?"

"A few more, I think about four. We're done with Latin, finally, and I'm almost done reading the curriculum books. I'm almost finished with my math book, too."

"Okay, Abby. This is boring. You can't just post about what you're doing."

"Well, what do you want to hear?"

"I don't know, maybe, uh... your life experiences or something."

"Um... I saw a lizard today. It was striped."

"Oh, how interesting. Can't you think of anything better than that?!"

"Not really. I don't have a very interesting life."

"I'm sure there's enough."

"Uh... my sisters and I learned Dixie on our instruments, and played it for our friends on the 4th of July."

"Right. You play Manolind or something?"

"Mandolin. Haven't you ever read my posts?"

"Sort of. Kind of. But not that well. And you really don't post that often."

"Well, excuse me. I'm trying to change that."

"Get to work then. You don't keep up a blog by lying around."

"I know that."

"Well, I've got to go now. It's been nice talking to you... sort of."

"Goodbye, then."

Slam! 




How was your Independence Day?

Grace be with you,
Abby :D

A Bird-Brained Guide to Thanksgiving

In four days, it will be Thanksgiving, a holiday where hundreds of helpless turkeys are slaughtered and cruelly eaten. That's why we have compiled this handy list. It tells all of you turkeys what to do during this horrible holiday.

~A Turkey's Guide to Thanksgiving~
a list of helpful options for scared turkeys

1. Temporarily move to Brazil- it has a nice warm climate and thankfully only Americans celebrate Thanksgiving.
2. Come to my house- we are having a nice thanksgiving party--I mean, uh, turkey refuge party and we would just love to have you over.
3. Dress up- some disguises you could use are: chicken, a funny looking man with a pointy nose, a mascot for a sports team, a piece of furniture. These are all simple easy disguises you can use in a pinch.
4. Join the TRP- the Turkey Refuge Program (TRF) is a program just for all you confused turkeys out there who just want a home during the holidays. It sends you the address of different vegetarian families around the States who take no part in this barbaric holiday and will take you in as part of their family.
5. Write a petition- standing out on a busy sidewalk, taking signatures and addresses, and finally sending it to the White House to ban Thanksgiving-- what could be more patriotic to your cause? Beware that this method could lead to you becoming a dinner somewhere. After all, as we have shown in the above picture, there are millions of Americans who will attack and capture a helpless turkey.
6. Lose some weight- getting thin might stop the thought of a plump juicy turkey from running through people's heads.
7. Stay inside- this one explains itself.


Well, as you can see, there are lots of options for frightened turkeys such as yourselves. Following this list, there is no need for panic as Thanksgiving draws closer. Have a happy Thanksgiving! *evil chuckle*
