Rain!!!

OMFG!!! Rain!!! It's the most awesome thing ever. Maybe we can get out of this drought.

In other news, this new kid, Michael, is so fucking weird. He almost never talks. He just sits there with a look of horror on his face.... I think Kevin finally explained sex to the poor kid. Seriously, what kind of parents let their kid get to be 15 without giving him "the talk"? It's fucking ridiculous...

Anyway, I'm going back to reading Roman erotic poetry, like a normal teenager.

~~Anne

Because we are awesome and we can

I'm so excited to have Alyn living with us again! We can cause so much trouble now that her devious mind has joined our consortium of mischief.

~~Wynn

Indeed! My penchant for chaos and destruction rivals that of the legendary Aria and Nona in their teenage years. In days to come we shall lure my dear cousin to the dark side. Victory is upon us, sisters!

~~Alyn

Y'all are ridiculous... that's almost as bad as "Come sisters! Let us leave this place in a manner most Wiccan!"

~~Anne

"Text your mom to come pick us up."!!!!

~~Cambri

Hey, we're not that bad. Anyway, since when did you become all serious, and such?

~~Alyn

Anne's just pissed because she's in "old cat lady" mode. She's convinced that she'll remain single and unsatisfied forever.

~~Wynn

Hehehe!

~~Cambri

What's that about, Cambri?

~~Wynn

Oh, nothing... I'm sure you'll figure it out in time :P

~~Cambri

Right... whatever.... So, are you in on our devious plans to corrupt Michael?

~~Wynn

The cute new guy? YES! OMG! This will be so much fun! :D

~~Cambri

He's gonna be tough to crack. That kid IS the buckle of the Bible belt. Pretty much every stereotype of fundie Christians I've ever heard exists in him. Hell, I'm pretty sure he doesn't know about sex, or that boys and girls have different body parts....

~~Alyn

O.O Seriously?!?! We must rectify this! Get that boy some porn!

~~Cambri

Y'all do realize that you're sitting right next to each other at the same computer, typing your conversation into a blog post instead of actually speaking, right?

~~Anne

Yes.

~~Alyn, Cambri, Wynn

Y'all are fucking insane....

~~Anne

Says the keyboard hijacker...

~~Wynn

Well, fuck you, Wynn :P

~~Anne

*Giggles, then runs off to the other room to laugh hysterically*

~~Cambri

What was that about?

~~Alyn

Umm....

~~Wynn

Yeah... umm... well... Splunge.

Overcoming Jealousy: Anne

Well, being single, I don't have much to say about jealousy in relationships. But I can certainly talk about being jealous OF relationships.

As mentioned in my last post, I'm one of two single people in the house (not counting the small children). It sucks. Everybody's got somebody, but I have to sleep alone. No cuddles for me. It's easy to see how someone in my situation would be jealous of those in relationships. The fact is, I do get jealous.

I don't really know what to do about it. There really isn't anyone I know right now who I'd want to be in a relationship with. I'm homeschooled, so that kind of reduces the dating pool.

Come to think of it, I'm not even sure why I want to be in a relationship. I guess that's my advice. If you're jealous, ask yourself why you want the thing that someone else has.

~~Anne

HA!

Cambri just posted about how someone's getting laid every day in this house. Well, it ain't me. Despite what everyone seems to think, I'm still a virgin. That's right, I did not have sex with Gilbert! Good thing, too. He was a misogynistic asshole. Much like his father was, or so I've heard.

But still, I'm sick of being single. I'm the only one (other than Cambri and the little kids) who is. But finding someone is the hard part. Whenever someone finds out about my family, they think either that I'm Mormon or that I'm a sinful pervert. I am DEFINITELY NOT Mormon. I suppose sinful pervert is subject to interpretation. If believing that consenting adults can do whatever they want (so long as it doesn't infringe upon the rights of others) makes one a sinful pervert, then I guess I am one.

Sunday mornings

I think one of the greatest things about not being Christian is that you get to sleep in on Sunday mornings. Why would anyone want to get up early to listen to a boring old man drone on and on about heaven and hell and sin and Jesus and stuff? Granted, not all churches are like that. When we lived in Ireland my mom was adamant about us pretending to be Catholic. I didn't mind that so much, because unlike Baptists, Irish Catholics are pretty cool.

Of course, there is a downside to Sundays: chores. Mom says that since we got to sleep in, we should have plenty of energy to clean. It's just so much to do! Do you have any idea how much of a mess fifteen people can make? Terri says that if I did a little bit every day of the week, it wouldn't be so bad. But she likes doing laundry. I can't understand why.

Well, I suppose I'd better go. I've got laundry and homework to do. Though I don't get why home schooled kids would get homework....
