We saw swans in the Pawcatuck River. And then Annaliese fed her shoe to them. She's so stupid. (No offense.) So she was so excited to see swans that somehow her shoe came flying off of her foot and into the river. We were lucky because the river wasn't moving fast. We were unlucky because guess what? No don't, I'll tell you. We didn't find them. They got stuck in the bushes or drowned. Annaliese wanted to be lowered in with a rope to find them. We reminded her about our lack of rope situation but she didn't seem to care. She asked 10 more times. Then we went home defeated. Annaliese with one shoe.
More bad news. I got bit or stung by some sort of bee or a flying something else. Here's the story. Ok so we were on a boat enjoying the sunshine when this thing kept annoying me. This thing was a bug. An annoying one. I thought it went away. I continued to enjoy the sun when my arm started to ache. Kind of like when you're about to get sun burnt. I looked in the general direction where the pain was coming from and on my sleeve there was some blood. (No this is not to the tune of Old McDonald.) I thought it was blood but I wasn't sure because there wasn't any on my arm. There was, however, a tiny white bump like when you get a bug bite and there's a tiny white circle that itches a lot. This was the same except it ached. I told my mom and she said it looked like a bite or sting of some sort. I remembered the flying thing. Then we put some stuff on it. It was all better. Not the end. At school the next day I felt like I was going to pass out. A little. It was that feeling when you get a shot and afterwards you think you might pass out or throw up. My arm was like that all day. It was awful.

"O"
I got to be the photographer for the before and after pictures of my dad's yard. When he's done with his yard in a year or two we'll take new pictures and then look at the old pictures and see how much work was put into it. I also got to learn how to mow the lawn. I've done it before but it doesn't scare me now. Except for the part when I thought I was about to mow over a wasps nest and just let go of everything and ran. But I did it in the most mature way possible because I am mature.
We also almost missed Annaliese's soccer game. We missed half the game and they lost 2-3, but she still got to play so woo-hoo for her. I learned the proper way to eat a tic tac at the soccer field during her practice. Turns out there's a little thingy on the opening that the tic tac is supposed to balance on when you flip the box upside down and open it. It's not exactly full-proof because sometimes two come out and one falls. Or both fall. And then they land on the soccer field where oh so many cleats have stepped before. And another thing. You can't play try-to-get-me with them in your pocket because they make the most annoying sound.
And here is part 1 of my new...I don't even know what to call it. I'll call it "O." So "O" is pretty much the random-est things I could think I of and it pretty much describes what goes on in my head. I understand if you have no idea how to read it or what it means because I can't even do that myself so enjoy part 1 of "O" by Melita.
hey dumby fish over there with the tuna sandwhich all covered in scales and the breath of a vampire…vampires sparkle with the glow from a ranch after daylight has spoken with a question mark and then u sit on the grass with a banana in one arm and a pepsi can upon the foot of the right side of the monkey who is your best friend and u cannot shall not ever set foot on the mcdonalds premises of glitter because u know their secret about how u cannot feed your monkey tacos and this book is to the tune of sexy and I know it if u didn’t read that like that I suggest u start over just because u can and u know your dumb if u pet a gorilla…. and then it tells u your dumb cuz then u know its true and your also kind of creative if u can speak Swahili and not English because that would be just the way it is so have the day u have and continue yourself because u are what makes it all slippery in the kitchen so stop it right now and write a book if u want but make sure the pasta isn’t that salty because the ocean is made of salt and then u probably just killed a panda with a tiger in the study at Disney world because that’s the way youtube was meant to be so take it or leave it but make sure to recycle it so that the world becomes better than it is and that u make that happen

Fried Oreo Cookies!!
School started and I have been super busy! Well actually school started and I have been super tired! I am on the....wait for it.....Hurricanes team! Did I already mention that? I don't think so. It's funny to think of school when it hasn't been school for a whole summer long! Think about it! "I just got back from school!" "At school today...." "My dog ate my homework!" Sounds weird right? Hmmm....... Nice word choice, right? Hmmmm. It just works with every paragraph. Except this one. So I'm just going to pretend this one never happened and move on.
My aunt Christina visited! And is still visiting! And will continue to visit for the whole entire weekend! :) We went to the Rhythm and Roots festival yesterday. I didn't know how to spell that so I just chose to spell it wrong! Or maybe I chose to spell it right....? I got an airbrushed tattoo on the underside of my wrist. It looks like this. --------------------> Cool, right? Also, I got to try my very first Fried Oreo Cookie. It was actually better than a normal Oreo. Annaliese made a new friend who went to the circus camp she wanted to go to in New Hampshire. She was showing her how to do all sorts of impressive things that I'm sure Annaliese will be happy to show off later.
At this very moment, people are chopping down our tree with very loud chainsaws at 10 in the morning!
