Violet, Not Violence

What am I listening to: Where I stood by Missy Higgins
What am I craving: nothing, I'm stuffed
Where am I: Mt. Juliet, TN
*New Question!* What time is it: 12:oo PM (yes on the dot)

Why hello everyone reading this!
Let me start off saying happy early Thanksgiving!
We had an early Thanksgiving last night for other reasons, and I ate a lot. No more food for a while, please. We had some family and friends over to help eat all the food we made, including: A turkey, gravy, 4 or 5 different kinds of casseroles, rolls, macaroni, 3 different types of pies, mash potatoes, soda, and probably some things I forgot. In the end, it was all very good.

Wednesday, I will be leaving for New Orleans with my mom and sister to visit my grandparents for the real Thanksgiving. Let me say that my grandfather is very sick, in the hospital right now, so if you would keep him in mind for me, thanks. My grandfather is also a wonderful artist, so I will post his website at the bottom.

Christmas is coming-I think I said this in the previous post, but people are rushing it this year- and the one thing I can't wait for is the school break I get. I don't know why it comforts me so much. But, at the end of the break, after New Years, I get to go skiing again. I love skiing. The city we go to is Maggie Valley, North Carolina, in the Smokey Mountains. I love that little town. It's like a little slice of heaven and I can't wait.

Again, Happy Thanksgiving!

Until next time,

In a World of Amazement...

What am I listening to: Raise Your Glass by P!nk
What am I craving: a cough drop
Where am I: Mt. Juliet

Today I took my first step into another world.
It was located next to a bar tending school and a hair stylist school. But, it doesn't really matter where it's located, it just matters that it exists.
With super hero action figures in the window and a $25 Captain America shield hanging on the wall, the place is none other than a comic book store.

Personally, I like manga better, but I'm crazy about zombies too, so I bought a zombie comic book. The comic book I got is called "Zombies Calling" by Faith Erin Hicks. I completely love it! And for all you other zombie lovers, yes I did get a copy of "The Walking Dead" too. When my dad first saw the trailer for the t.v. show, he said, "They made a show just for me!" and it was followed by a long wait for Halloween. With only the second episode out, I'm sitting so far on the edge of my seat, waiting for more.

On other news, I think that the Christmas season is arriving a little too early. My dad went trick-or-treating with my brother and he said he saw Christmas decorations up already. It's not even Thanksgiving! I say wait a couple weeks before you go out and buy your dead tree and decorate it with plastic shapes, glass ornaments, and kindergarten crafts.

I am going to go ahead and end this post with a question a friend of mine asked:
"Do sea bears exist?"

Until next time,
