Oh yes. Ladies and Gentlemen, I present the return of Plerp (otherwise known as Medieval Middle-School Drama). It wasn't going to come out to day, but I ended up finishing it way sooner that expected. Lucky you. If you've never read the other Chronicles of Plerp, then I both pity and envy you. If you [...]
Sapless Sixteen
The doctor was having a bad day, the day I was born. All he was trying to do was have an intelligent conversation with one of his nurses, and some random guy insisted on interrupting him every five minutes to whine about some lady who was in labor. For pity sake, who did the guy [...]
Beyond the Hill
Hello, my people. Today I bring you another philosophical pondering which is both deep and dangerous. You've been warned. See, in my aunt's cow pasture, there's this decently large hill that's full of ticks and weeds and other such nastiness. When I was little, I would look up toward the top, and wonder what was [...]
A Brief Lesson on Canadian Culture
At this point, you all know that I'm a nut-case and speak sarcasm like a second language. You may also know that my sister Anna is an epic person who belongs in Lord of the Rings, and my mother identifies with a Mop. But something you may not know about me is that once upon [...]
A Lunatic Writer’s Anniversary
Guys. Do you realize how special this week is? Two years ago, sometime this week, a life changing event occurred. While my brother was in the hospital having his appendix removed, and all the house was quiet, I went into our storage room. Sitting down among the various piles of boxes and junk, a scrap [...]
Wild Road Trips and Prince Caspian Productions—Part 3
You thought I was done, didn't you? HA. Nope. I'm going to drivel on a bit more. See, on our way home from Greenville, we found the COOLEST little town in North Carolina. We stopped to eat, and take a walk through this park thing which turned out to be a college campus. (Oops.) There [...]
Wild Road Trips and Prince Caspian Productions—Part 2
Welcome to part 2 of our road trip. May the odds be ever in your favor. Okay. I said in my last post that we were in Greenville to see a play of Prince Caspian, and that was where my specificity ended. So, I'll elaborate. This is not just any cheesy high-school play. This is [...]
Wild Road Trips and Prince Caspian Productions—Part 1
I'm not slacking off on posting, really. (Though that wouldn't be beneath me.) See, last week, my family was traveling down to South Carolina to see a play of Prince Caspian (more on that later), and between that and having the brain cells of a flea, I wasn't able to write anything. Which, technically, was [...]
Soggy Photography
You may have noticed that I didn't do a post last week. I could launch into an extensively detailed explanation of why I chose not to write anything, but I think I'll spare you that account. The long and short of it is... I didn't feel like it. So there. Today, you get some more [...]
Mary, Monkey, and a Student Showcase
Last Monday was the last day of my homeschool co-op's art class. To commemorate my great achievement of making it through two whole semesters without dying from an overdose of people, I'm doing another art post. If I randomly yell "You shall not PASS!!!" in the middle of it, please forgive me. My brain is [...]
