Just Things

I am just going to write about a bunch of stuff, so (if I may quote Narnia yet again): "BRACE YOURSELVES!" *sigh* I do that WAY too often.

OK, I am back from Philly! It was torture! I love the city, I hate the Eagles! I am a die hard Steelers fans, but I kept my mouth shut in fear of the crazy insane fans. Then I would really be a DIE HARD fan! Hehehehe... My mom lost her voice today ("Mum's the word!" I am tooooooo funny...), my new nickname is 'Gothica' (MY COAT IS NOT GOTHIC. I AM THE PEPPIEST PERSON ON THE ENTIRE CHEERLEADING SQUAD. DEAL WITH IT.), and I am very pleased with my Narnia/art themed Easter basket.

Chapter 3 of 'The Gentle' is underway, I promise! I somehow manage to find the time to post and e-mail almost every day, and yet this story takes forever! (Elwen: TEA is almost done! "Huzzah! An adventure!") Now, here are some more Narnian things that have been on my mind.

THOUGHT #1 - My Favorite Narnian Characters
I was knitting and thinking for 4 hours on the car ride home about Narnia. I was just pondering who my favorite characters were, and I think I've decided.
1- Puddleglum! I just love that guy... I think the reason I like him is he ends up being so loyal to Narnia, even though he doesn't seem like the most cheerful guy on the face of the planet. Who doesn't love that guy!?
2- Good ol' Reep. He's just so amazingly awesome! Definitely a lot braver than me. Plus, who doesn't love the whole 'honor' thing??? Also, he's the only mouse I think I wouldn't be scared of.
3- Peter Pevensie. I know what El is thinking: STOP, PLEASE! Yes, Will is very cute, but that isn't why Peter is my favorite. I am obsessively jealous of Susan, Edmund, and Lucy because they have the one thing I don't have and want most of all: an older brother. I am very, very, very jealous of Gracia, a.k.a. Georgie-who-is-not-Georgie, because she has every single thing I don't have, and that's an older brother, an older sister, and a younger brother. Stick me in between Ed and Lu and I've got it made! Doesn't it sound lovely? Anna Pevensie... SHUT UP ELWEN. I CAN READ YOUR MIND, REMEMBER!!!

THOUGHT #2 - Voyage of the Dawn Treader
I can't take it any more! JUST COME OUT ALREADY!

THOUGHT #3 - Bruce Springsteen
My sister and I are having a Brucediction. Perhaps Vi can help me stop... His music is just so amazing, I must have listened to it for at least two or three hours total over Easter break.

I think I'll let you all go now. "A lady of Narnia must try and remain calm when she takes her cousins' dog on a walk and finds out nobody knows how to clean up after it."
