So today’s post is almost more of a ‘I’m not worthy’ post to my niece. Yes, my niece. See, she’s just too cool. First off she made a fantastic video/music/thingy of my daughter through the years of her life. So cute and gets me all sappy/sobby.
Second, my niece is smart and talented. 4.0 in school and a darn good writer. Like I’m surprised she didn’t beat me to selling to NY. And she LOVES the book Twilight. I mentioned that in an earlier post. She loves it so much she entered that MTV2 ‘react to the movie trailer’ contest thing, and she was picked. Yup, she was on a commercial spazzing out over the Twilight trailer. I don’t really ‘get’ fanfiction, but my niece loves it. And has delved head first into writing fanfiction for Twilight. Here’s a quick snip if you’re interested. Oh, and keep in mind it’s written by a 13 year old! And she says she’d love comments ;)
I can’t imagine what she’ll be like in a few years. Of course (brushing an imaginary piece of lint of my shirt) I did give her advice and constant encouragement over the years.
So, off topic of my amazing niece, and onto my upcoming trip to Disneyland. Holy Macaroni am I excited! And I’m contemplating something totally insane. I may…leave my computer at home. *Gasp* Can I do it? Should I do it? Yaaay I leave on Monday! Or maybe even Sunday. It’s standby. So it’s hard for people like me who are ‘planners’. I’m trying to relax and be more laid back about the whole thing. Heh. Ask me how I’m doing Sunday. Squee!
Hi! LOL, you’re too kind. But seriously, I remember last time you posted about me and my Hilary Duff obsestion. That was a phase. This is not. TWILIGHT!!!!!!! NEW MOON!!!!!!!! ECLIPSE!!!!!!! BREAKING DAWN!!!!!!!! MIDNIGHT SUN!!!!!!!!! STEPHENIE MEYER!!!!!!!
A wee bit excited, are ya, kid? :) Hilary Duff was NOT a phase. You still have posters and listen to her. Which is okay, she’s not cracked out and sleeping around. She’s the only little pop star who didn’t tweak. :)
Oh heaven forbid you leave the computer! LMAO
You can do it. I think…
;)
We can do this, Shell. I’m a planner too. I haven’t even packed. I haven’t straightened up my house. (Read scrubbed everything from top to bottom.) But I’m okay. We’ll be okay. The no computer for a week is kinda freaking me.
I read your niece’s work. O.M.G. Talk about talented. It must run in the family.
Oh let’s be real, Emma, she kicks my ass.
Yeah, total spontaneous flights are freaky.
Oh and the no computer thing… I don’t know guys, I just don’t know. I need to reply to blog posts…and what if I get a major important email? Oooh I really should leave it home. I can just do a cell phone for emergencies..
You’re going to be close to me! We plan to bring my kiddo to Disney this summer. Not sure when.
Ah Kelley wish we could meet up! But the schedule is so dang tight. And I know it’s probably hard with two kids now!! I hope you’re going to San Fran!
Le sigh. Still don’t know if we’re bringing the computer. Don’t know. Wah! :D And yep Shell, your niece is majorly talented. :D
Disney!!!! Woot!!!!! Kiss Tigger for me!!!!
