A: As much as you want as long as you say it on the internet!
As long as we are on the topic of the Amish I will tell you about my struggles from becoming a big black hat Jethro-in-every-name Amish Guy. But first the conclusion to the heart-wrenching story of the adorable cat. We took the ADORABLE kitty to the Humane Society
on Tuesday(now three weeks ago) and found out it was chipped! the Kitty was neutered male, seven months old, named Toby, and it turned out he lived a block away with a disabled man in the opposite direction of the houses we went and asked if they owned poor Toby. There is a happy ending for Toby! Now the following Wednesday night I was babysitting my brothers and sisters I had just finished cooking the food and was going to clean up the house after supper when I heard the storm sirens. So I turned on the weather channel and saw a severe thunderstorm warning for most of Minnesota. Literally seconds later the power went out and I heard a high pitched whirring noise.( this was probably a straight wind ) We all bolted downstairs into our family room. thankfully our Mom had called and told us to get flashlights out. In God's providence
my Mom and Dad just got new cell phones and hadn't canceled the old one out yet. I ran to my room and snatched it and rushed back to the family room. I then called my Mom and Dad who were at prayer meeting. The thing about this cell phone is that the place it got the lowest reception was at our house. Once the cell phone stayed at one bar long enough to make a call the bar would go out, 20 seconds later it would come back ect. ect. After much annoyance I was finally able to call my mom and dad. the call was choppy and we couldn't understand each other very well but it did it's purpose mom and dad came home. 15 minutes later still cuddled together in our family room I got a call from Mrs. C( The annoying phone decided to work fine then)
her son who helps take care of an austistic young man was at the Library and was headed towards my house. I was still on the Phone with Mrs. C when my parents came in the door. They had arrived right after Mrs. C's son got into the driveway.
The storm had subsided substantially now so we headed upstairs and lit candles to my Mom's horror a very unclean house became illuminated. for the next boring five days nothing really happened except that on Thursday we got a Generator because our power goes out at the sign of a drizzle. On Monday night our power came on! yay!(our first victory in withstanding the power of the Amish) this being a very long blog already I will skip to Friday with the exception of a video game recommendation for a game called "Katamari Damacy" and it's just as fabulous sequel "We Love Katamari". On Friday and on the following Tuesday my family celebrated two of my Sister's Birthdays! Happy Birthday! let's rewind back to Saturday now. On Saturday I tested for my Red belt in Tae Kwon Do. now I'm only one belt(and probably eight months) away from Black Belt!
fast- forward to this week, my Dad overcome with dreams of being Amish turned this week (except Saturday) into a no tv, video game, or computer week. To show resistance to the Amish I will give you a review of"Sharkboy and Lavagirl" in three words "Corniest Movie Ever!"
This movie is filled with terrible puns and horrible lines like:"my instincts tell me this is so"
or "my highly sensitive ears sense it too". Well I need hurry up and finish this blog so I will save Harriet Meyers for my next blog.
P.S. Congrats if you happened to read all of this post. have a cookie.

You need to say more about We Love Katamari! Because you did not say enough about the BEST GAME EVER the king shall zap you with lasers several times and you will lose six cookies.
I read the whole post. Are you going to give me a cookie. No? Thats cheep. So you mean I have to go all the way to my cupboard and retreave a cookie that I made with my own bear hands. Thats a crude joke.
You are the first person to exercise manly dominion so you get everyone's cookies! Cookies will fall from the sky somewhere near you soon!
I get to go eat a molasses krinkle made by my children. Thanks for giving me permission for that and I'm glad there are actually cookies to eat in there!
Thanx for the cookie. Man was that good.
Whose Mrs.C?
