Two random blogs and a loss of sanity...

So, I wasn't planning on writing a blog entry today, and I certainly don't plan on writing one everyday. That would be like trying to write a daily diary, which a lot of people do of course, but I remember the last time I attempted that, and it was basically a sentence a day. Having said that, it was in Year 8 in high school, and I'm not sure my writing skills were really at any great level by then.
It was a really funny day today, with the family over, and friends too. My friend's little boy is the most fascinating kid in the world. Four years old with the most exuberant little personality. He's smart, too. I know that when my siblings and I were kids we were called smart, but I just haven't met a smart kid in a long time (not that I actually know that many children), so it comes as a surprise. He kept telling me that I was under arrest, and when I asked what I'd done he said "Nothing, you're under arrest." If you think about it that's a pretty insightful commentary on today's society, not that that was his intention. He likes to call me his best friend, and he's already becoming a mini me. Like today I was talking in a range of different accents, I think I was feeling particularly silly with all the visitors there, and by the end of the day so was he.
Plus, my twin sister was over. I noticed that we seem to have these very "us only" conversations, that can occassionally include our younger brother, but don't really manage to include any one else. Just an observation, we're just crazy twins, what can you do about it? lol We certainly had fun entertaining our little half-sisters for a while. Unfortunately they have a lot more energy than us 21 year olds do, which made the resulting noise more annoying than cute. Plus the littlest one kept chasing my dog (Snoopy) around, and by the end he was hiding in the laundry. Our cat (Xyna) had the right idea. She hid somewhere in the house all day and wouldn't come out until everyone left. She doesn't like change. Any time we move something around, or mow the lawn etc etc she gives us a look as if to say "I did not grant permission for this change to occur." (Said in a rather haughty voice). Whereas Snoopy's like "Hey guys, love the new look. More exploring for me to do!" (Said in an enthusiastic voice).

Well, that's a short run-down of the days events. I feel like I had something to say, something potentially meaningful and life-altering... Or just random, who knows? It's so frustrating because I've been doing a lot of writing lately, but every time I have an idea I have to race to the computer, or write it on whatever I have handy. But with this I was like "It's all cool, I'll remember." HA! Good luck with that one genius. Don't worry, one day my rambling will make so much sense that everyone will appreciate the crazy lengths I took to get there...

Au revoir
