Besides stuffing myself with turkey and all the trimmings, besides writing until my eyeballs bled, besides doing all my shopping on Black Friday…this weekend, I did the bird tree.
What the heck is a bird tree? And how does one do it, exactly?
Well, Minions, the fam and I decided we wanted some family time together and we also completely adore the birds and squirrels that frequent our back patio. So we put up a tree back there with pretty lights and then commenced to stringing popcorn and cranberries, and pasting pinecones with peanut butter and rolling them in birdseed. The cranberries and popcorn became garland, and the pinecones became ornaments. And now…one particularly chunky lil squirrel is pigging out. The birds are sure to follow.
We had a blast.
But today…today it’s back to writing, and the ever looming deadlines.
What did you do this weekend, Minions?

Thanks. It’s kind of confused right now but I don’t really need to think much on it until the third part of a story I’m writing (like the third book) and I’m in the beginning of the first 0.o
I know this is completely off-topic, but is it too late for me to enter for the short story contest?=x
no i think auntie said that we can enter until jan 23….by email i think it has to be recieved by snail mail like jan 17, check the ‘win things’ page and it will tell you…. that is cool RJ, i am doing a series, if it even goes anywhere, (meaning my book even gets a few sales,) but i’d prob write more anyway, at least so i’ll know how the story will end
#_0. what is your book bout?
Luv AVL
Ohh ok!
I just started yesterday, but i wanted to submit within a week.
I'm doubt mine would win, but thats probably only cos i dont have much confidence =p
Mine's about the usual, human<3vampire thing =]
LoL. i have no confidence either, my mom is always like your good at this or something and i’m like no i’m not.. ::))=. i don’t think mine will win, i’m sure a much much better one will win.,
Luv AVL
Aw i’m sure your’s win
I’ve never won anything before, so..xD
I’m gonna attempt a story for the contest, but I seriously doubt I’ll win xD My mom always tells me I’m a great writer, but that’s how moms are, y’know? Apparently my English teacher thinks I’m a good writer too, but I really don’t. Wow, I fail at confidence, huh? xD Good luck to everyone who’s entering!
I’m submitting mine soon…hopefully…
I doubt that i’ll win, but i have low self-esteem (i think) so confidence is not really my deparment…all the time.
i say we wish each other luck, whoever wins at least it will be fair.

And I have more to say, it’s a (from my limited knowledge) a new (well, in some areas) take on vampires.
“They’ve existed for a century. And soon, they’ll be among us.”
Take from that what you will. It COULD be a tagline of sorts I guess… kinda.
Hi. I learned how to juggle this weekend! My fourth grade teacher started teaching us how to do it, but I gave up after fourth grade was over. I barely started again, and I’m pretty good, actually!
Good Luck! =)
i know this is EXTREMELY off topic and that we mentioned this like FOREVER ago, but i was think Cheslea staub would be a good Meredith, or somebody like that, if no body knows who she is (which is prob the case) she was in minutemen and an episode of wizards of waverly place,i know her from minutemen, like u can look her up on images.google.con of imdb (google has MUCH better pics, and more), just a thought.
luv AVL
man i keep making mistakes, images.google.COM OR imdb.com, man what is with me today?!
Luv AVL
Okay. I’ll look her up.

You’re not alone, RJ

Luv AVL
Thanks! I have the unfortunate tendency to write at odd intervals during the week and other things like that so I don’t have very many readers.
I’ll read it….when i find time (life has o extra time handy lately).
I went with my friends to see Dark Night cause nothing else we wanted to see was out….it was awesome!
