Well, then...

My family had the family birthday party for me, Peanut, and Mom today. Since we all have birthdays in October, we all get the same party. Whoopie.

As you know, I come from a family of nutjobs, so what happened was pretty odd for anyone sane to comprehend.

I'm telling you for the last time, NO ONE in my family is on drugs. I think that clears things up for you.

Now on to the stuff I feel like writing about!

On Friday, the most recent day that I had Art, something funny happened. Since we just finished our last project, we were having a bit of free time today. We were still forced to sit in our assigned seats. Drat.

My assigned seat is next to Mr. President(have I told you about him yet?), and Slush came over to talk to him. Apparently, they both have put off doing their outside-class project off until now, even though it's due Wednesday. I can't really blame them. I have, too.

The project is to take an old masterpiece (Mona Lisa, The Scream, etc.)and redraw it into something modern, like giving them an ipod.

So they were both completely clueless as to what they should draw. They sat there for ever, just coming up with stupid ideas that would earn them both Fs. Finally, they asked me what I was going to draw.

I hadn't come up with anything, so I told them the first thing that came out of my head, I was going to draw a talkshow with Mona Lisa AND The Scream. I was surprised by the ingenious of the out-of-the-blue idea. They were, too.

Slush asked me if I was actually going to use that idea. I told him, "If I can come up with a -spur-of-the-moment ingenious thing like that, do you really think I'm going to give it away that easily?" He stared at me and said, "Did you really just come up with that on the spot?"

I said yes, and he said, "Aww, I was thinking that if you were joking, I would do that." I spent the rest of the period comforting him. Wasted time. Seriously. I mean, I was drawing caterpillars until then! See? Absolutely wasted.

Sayonara!
