Here it is...

Well, let's get this done before I get caught up in NaNo-ing...last night I posted that I'd be writing a blog at a later time, when i was on something other than a kindle. And here it is...
Well the last two Monday's my NaNo Buddy and I have been meeting up and "burning some creative energy", by attempting to write. Key word: attempting. It started out with looking at bats that looked like ballons...
We normally only get a few hundred words done, maybe a page. (I'm normally writing, and she'd have her netbook, or we'll both have our notebooks).
Well, last Monday was an interesting day. We wrote a little--while swinging on their kiddy swings--and then went over to this field and raked some leaves; which her family and neighbors had spent awhile using tarps and caring all their leaves over to the area. And we starting grabbing sticks and shouting harry potter spells at the leaves and jumping in. Avada Kedavra--a killing spell. Yes, we were killing the already-dead pile of leaves. We're 8th graders. xD Blame her, not me. She's the one who brought up this quote:
"I used to run around acting like harry potter. But now I can't raelly get away with that, so I put all my creative energy into writing."
She has a big wooded-area around her house.
And, mid-way as I was laying in a pile of leaves I looked up and saw her little neighbor staring at us. *Sigh*  She had a popsicle.
Well, somewhere in their she tried showing me this tree trick, which involves climbing a thin tree, scooting toward the end of the branch and pulling it down. She'd then jump off and let the branch swing back up. Kinda fun as she takes a trip down to the ground in mid-air, via branch.
Well, the first time she tried she got stuck. Quite funny, actually. A goood friend would've rushed over and helped her--a BEST and TRUE friend (like me) takes out their phone to get a picture while laughing hysterically.
Thing is, about a month ago I gave her an IOU for her birthday (I got her a sing-a-ma-jig that wasn't delivered yet--yes one of those 3+ Fisher Price toys. We both have one :D) and on the card I wrote a little poem, mocking the non-rhyming card she had given her mom a few weeks before.
It went something like this:
Beginning:"You knew this was coming, after your moms..."
Ending: "I love you buddyx3, but I would laugh if you fell out of a tree."
And she refused to fall out of a tree for me! I was just trying to rhyme. Buddy buddy buddy (buddy x3) refers to author buddies. I can't remember the middle.
Annyways, that was funny. XD I still have a picture of her dangling. She fell, but she only slightly hurt her ankle. She was okay..not like it was very far. If she was in a more dangerous situation I would've helped her but...yeah.
Then we went on to play on a wooden swing and a horribly putten (is that a word? Probably not) up tire swing by a bunch of kids. It touched the ground. Yeah, but I found a fun way to play on it. Either push your friend ever so slightly when she finally gets it to stand straight up with her on top and watch her fall (I'm so nice) --but later get pushed off yourself. OR get on and tilt to the side. Then you swing around on the ground--WARNING::You're butt will get dirty.
And chasing her cats. Ah, our Monday's.
Her step-sister and neighbors walked down to a really close Kmart and brought up a big bag of FunYuns and delicioso chocolate. :) Yes, if there's a word in Spanish that you don't know (I'm in Spanish |) just had o! :D
Well tomorrow's another one--but we're over at my house this time. More interesting times await.
It helps you get through the long month of November.
