Hey look! A tick!

I am not a normal sane person so that is why I am posting this picture. I went out to feed Puppy lunch, and while she was eating I was petting Snickers. I felt a large bump on his shoulder and thought "my thats a big one!" Sure enough, he had a big brown tick on him. I want inside and mentioned very causally (causally as in: oh Ben, Snickers has a lady bug on him) to Ben that his dog had a rather large tick on him and perhaps he should do something about it. Ben said rather loudly "WHAT!!, EWW, THATS GROSS" So I got the Revolution stuff and put it on the dogs and then brought Snickers to the porch. I took the tick of with tweezers, and, after examining it, I took some pictures and then flushed it. My mom's reaction to it was:

ME: Hey mom, there is a tick on Snickers, it's this big.
MOM: Thats icky
ME: It was big as a pea, you know fat.
MOM: Thats icky.
ME: You wanna see it?
MOM: Thats icky.
MOM: Did you here me?
Me: What?
MOM: Thats icky.

So now you know how bored I can get when I'm done with school and I'm avoiding cleaning the bathroom. I sit around reading books, playing computer games and taking pictures of ticks. I am also waiting for Dad to get home so that they can start building in my room. They are building a bunk bed, but instead of two beds there will be a closet, dresser like thing and book shelf underneath the top bunk. I am greatly looking forward to that being done cause I cant stand clutter and I like places to put things. I will also be able to get rid of that ugly couch and that table thats slowly breaking in half. And then eventually, dad will get me a new mattress, and I wont have to sleep on one that smells like ammonia so bad that I have to put two blankets on top of it so that I can't smell it. Whats funny is that the mattress was made in a Texas maximum security place. Sadly the tag was ripped out long before I could prove that to my doubting friends. I am not going to post my permanent resident card picture. It looks bad.

Ben is very carefully making roads in the driveway. I think he has forgotten that he isn't allowed to do that. Oh well, its a pleasure for a season I guess.

Ah, dad is home.

Boredom is every than I see, but building in our room sounds cool, something I didn't get to do very much. I got to change it thats about it.

The bathroom is still dirty.... Oh, well. I KNOW you'll do such a thorough job on it tomorrow that there will not be one molecule of rust in the shower, and the toilet will be SO clean you could...well, you know what I mean. And I'm sure the floor will be scoured as well.

I can't miss youthgroup, its something about me where I have to go, like my body says no to missing out on it for anything. Its the same for church.

Yeah, I know how that is. It feels strange when I miss a service, like I missed something very important. Its like I missed getting my batteries charged:) And theres no way I'd miss the opportunity to hit people with golf balls:)
