One of Those Mornings

Because you're a homeschooler, you have a strange need to do schoolwork on the weekend and skip Mondays. So when you wake up on Sunday morning, you start reorganizing all 5 billion of your flash cards, and mistake Adverb for something that goes in the Algebra pile.

 Once finished, you realize just how hungry you are, but you don't want to wake up the sleeper inners with the rocket-powered microwave and a strawberry muffin, so you go for the cereal. But there is no rice milk. So you have the dry, uninteresting brand of organic Chex knockoff. With some sugary organic Frosted Wheats knockoff for some sugar. You pawn one of the uninteresting cereal bits to you dog to shut him up.

 "Go back to sleep already."

 Then, because you're in a scholarly mood, you contemplate correcting Taylor Swift on Twitter for posting 'Tonight we ended a 13 month tour.' at ten o'clock in the morning, until you realize that she is in Aussieland or something and it actually IS night there. She has graduated highschool, she's old enough to recognize a subject/verb tense disagreement (that's what you call it, because it sounds more correct than subject/verb agreement) Isn't it ironic that Owl City and Tay Swift and everybody seems to be in the Down Under this week?

 Then of course, you have to go through a typewriter club photo album to drool at a salmon colored Alpina.

This is not my photo and I did not mean to rip it off from the owner for selfish gain I just wanted to share the awesomeness with you guys and not make money off of it for any reason in any country in any hemisphere the intentions were simply for drooling purposes and you can stop staring at me like that for making the worlds second longest run on sentence the first longest is probably in some paranormal romance novel which we will not mention here because then it might be considered slander by those stuck up teenagers on nanawromo young writers program and I'm tired for this sentence so it ends here.



Since your purpose for getting on the computer was to go scroll through Author Agent websites, your mind starts to wander and you wonder how much your going to want to yell at the agent sites. They said in their Writer's Digest profile that they take all young adult fiction, but you are very suspicious when you see their gallery of published works. So you check out their blog to get a more in-depth idea of their prefrences, and it is admitted that they really only like teen witch stories. Lather, rinse, repeat.

Post Script
The Wednesday Wars by Gary D Schmidt is a really good book.

  1. Haha! I love the caption on your ripped-off typewriter photo. ;) The Wednesday Wars sound vaguely familiar. I recall something about a sister's boyfriend who had weird hair and sang "We all live in a yellow submarine."

  2. [thank you]

    You're half right! The Wednesday Wars' main character has a sister who is a hippie and listens to Yellow Sub in every chapter. She does have a boyfriend who drives a VW bug. LOL
