Where did the time go?…

Seriously, where did the time go? It’s been forever and a day since my last blog. About 4 months I think. But all in good reason. Gees, I don’t even remember where my last blog left off. Well Lucy, we have a lot of explaining to do…

To start everything off. Just after Thanksgiving my grandma started to get sick. She wouldn’t eat and she slept all the time. So after about a week or so of her being sick and not wanting to go to the doctor. We decided to make her go. Well the first hospital we took her to that will go unnamed for now just sent her home after about five hours of pretty much nothing. So the next day we all realized the she was sick and still needed to go to the doctor. So my aunt (LaVaughn’s mom) took her to a bigger hospital a few towns over. Where they immediately stuck an IV in her arm and gave her a room. This story if pretty long so I’m going to make it as short as possible. She was in there for 14 days and during that time she had a few different infections and her kidneys were failing. So after about a week of the doctors trying to get her kidneys to function, they decided to just put her on dialysis. So now she has to go to a dialysis clinic three time a week. But I think that’s a small price to pay. At least she’s doing good now.

After all that happened things started to go back to normal.

First, we got another ferret. It was in the pet store and was oh so cute at the time. So of course, we had to have it. We brought her home and she and our other ferrets got along so well. Then after a while we were talking. And moving came up a time or two. And we were thinking, “No one would rent a house/apartment to us with all of our animals.” So we were thinking about maybe trying to find some of them a nice new home. After about a week of that we decided to drop the whole “moving thing” and forget about getting rid of our animals. So we went on out way. Then we were talking one day about how much Ginger would go to the bathroom in the floor. And ever since we got Ginger (our Chihuahua) we’ve tried to potty train her. We tried walking her, getting puppy pads, and we even thought about a puppy litter box. But nothing would work. So we though if we could find her a nice home, it would be better for everyone. So we had some friends ask around for us. Then one day we were talking about how 3 ferrets is way too many. We can’t even play with them for very long periods. So we tossed the idea of getting rid of Luda and the new ferret around. So after about 2 weeks of having people ask around. We finally found some homes for some of them. So, we found our outside cat October a nice home on a farm where she‘ll be the only animal there. We found a great place for Luda and our new ferret. The guy said that he had ferrets in the past and knew a lot about them. So that was cool. And we also found Ginger a home with a couple that didn’t have any animals. Hopefully they’ll be able to potty train her. So now that leaves us with Milla (our German Shepherd), our cats (Zoe, Mischa, and Oona), Hollis (our hamster), and John Rambo (our gerbil). Oh, stupid me for forgetting. Our other finch died. No clue why. He just kicked the bucket one day. And a while after that we seen a couple love birds that looked pretty cute. LaVaughn really wanted them. But we backed off at first. Then like a week later the same love birds were still there. So after we talked ourselves into it, we decided to get them. They are so cute but still a little on the unsocial side right now. And I think that concludes all of our animal news.

Oh yea. LaVaughn took her eyebrow ring out and I took my left lip ring out. We were just sitting there one day talking about how more that one piercing on the face is a little too much. For us anyway. And I must say, it does feel loads better.

Hmm, what else? Well we’ve bought loads of new movies since the last time we’ve blogged. We really buy a lot from amazon.com anymore. But man, you can find DVDs so cheap there. And extremely rare. Like for example, Evil Toons. A really old comedy/horror movie of the early 90s. It was a bit on the pricey side, but totally worth it.

Oh yea. We seen The Last House on the Left. The opening night. Well it was more like day. But we got to see the very first showing. It was cool. There were only two other girls in there with us. Weird huh? But anyway, the movie was awesome. With a well assembled cast, great plot and an awesome director. This makes for a great movie. So the next chance you get, please go see this movie. If not for yourself, for me.

Man, I know there has to be more, but I just can’t think of it right now. Well, if I think of anything else, I’ll just blog about it later. So until next time, keen on rockin’.

Finally, some pictures...

Hey Japanese (said with a voice like the butcher in Hannibal Rising)! Ah, good times, good times. For those of you who haven’t seen Hannibal Rising, there’s this butcher on there yelling, “Hey Japanese!” at this lady. He says it really weird so we like say it all the time. I know I said I’d add some pictures like a week ago, but I’ve been really busy. So, that’s mostly what this post is going to be about. These pictures were taken between 9-1-08 to 9-29-08. So pretty much the month of September, lol. Thus explaining why there are so many. I had more but didn’t feel like uploading all of them. So, here you go. Hope everyone enjoys them. Until next time, peace out! - Megan

Photo and movie updates...

Yea, the last two blogs were a lot of yapping. It's time for movies and pictures. Well first I'll start by talking about the new movie, Prom Night. Well, on a scale from 1-10, one being not extreme and ten being extremely extreme, I'd give it a 4/10. Dude, I could barely keep myself awake through this boring ass movie. Well first, the acting wasn't very good and second, the plot was so gay. They really didn't try very hard on this movie. So if you want a good horror movie, for the love of god, don't waste your money on this. Ok, now for some pictures. As usual, they'll be posted below. So rock on! - Megan
