The Extraordinary Education of Nicholas Benedict

I’m reading the Mysterious Benedict Society prequel, The Extraordinary Education of Nicholas Benedict. Nicholas is now wishing for a long-lost brother. Anyone who has read MBS will agree with me on how heartbreaking that is.

Anyway, I’m driving to Dallas! Yay! *intense sarcasm* I love driving! Yay! No wifi!!!!!!!!!

I should be writing my novel instead of reading… Oh well

Why I Hate Home Depot

I hate Home Depot.

You see, my mom is hopelessly obsessed with redoing the house. Honestly, I’ll wake up on a Saturday at like six in the afternoon or something and walk into the living room and plop down where my couch USED to be and I’ll be in a kitchen and I’ll be like, “MOM, WHERE DID OUR HOUSE GOOOOOOOO??” And my mom did these rearrangements herself because she needed a hobby. So she often journeyed to Home Depot.

And I was taken with her. I probably spent 90% of afterschool time in Home Depot for a year and I’m seriously not exaggerating. Home Depot sucks because it has adult stuff, but not ADULT stuff. Like, knobs and 2x4s. For those who don’t understand, I’m probably explaining it all screwy. Donald Glover AKA Childish Gambino explains it best.

Packing For Trek

I’m packing for my vacation in a few days. It will include Dallas, horses, assassinations, Vegas, Area 51, helicopters, large holes in the ground, Roswell, Las Cruces, Tombstone, and the place where airplanes go to die. Cool, I know. I promise annual updates this time. For real.

On an entirely different note, look what my sister made me for breakfast one morning. His name is Fudgy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Best. Breakfast. Ever.

Vlog Will Come

Vlog tomorrow. Maybe.

Thanks for commenting, Sam. Not really. Thanks for drawing the me/Abed drawing. Really.

Taking over the world is very much coming. I almost played Risk today. And I beat this kid at Battleship.

It’s the last day of school and we’re not doing anything, so that’s why I can post here in 3rd period.

Mark Owens

Mark Owens is in jail for about seven years for basically being a d-bag. This is amazing news and all but we found out something else. He is a sex offender. Knowing that, I have to wonder what he would’ve done to me if Don and Jackie hadn’t of shown up. It’s terrifying.
When I take over the world, I’m gonna cause chaos but no way am I letting sex offenders run loose.

LA: Day Thr- OMFG, It’s Darren Chris!!!

*THIS POST IS REALLY FROM A MONTH AGO*

I’m not going to skip around but just saying, I met Darren Chris. And Foxface. And Portia. And Wes Bentley (Seneca Crane). And yes, I’m serious, like this is the best thing ever, Suzanne Collins. So, yeah.

ROBES AND SCARVES AND HOODIES!!! AHHHHHHH!!!!!!

Anyway, we started off the day going to Warner Bros. It was freaking awesome, because I got to see all this Harry Potter stuff. And Gilmore Girls. And I actually hung out in Central Perk.

We also went to Universal, which was awesome, for numerous reasons.

1) I got to actually GO to the Sock Market, which has been my main supplier of socks for years. I got robot socks. Which is awesome.

2) Maddie and Maxx got engaged at a Universal Studios (bridge between Harry Potter World and Jurassic Park at midnight on New Years Eve), so going to Universal, any Universal, is special.

Maxx, Maddie, and I were on Friends... I wish

Universal? Universal... Universal!

3) It was freaking UNIVERSAL!

Then we went to the hotel to change. And then we went to the movie. I’m not going to spoil anything but I will tell you what happened before. Jen, Josh, Liam, and Gary Ross were on stage when Jennifer tripped a bit. She had on this beautiful golden dress with a long train. Anyway, when they were walking off stage Josh kept on jumping on her train and she turned around and flipped him off. It was HILARIOUS. And whenever the nameless tributes died the kids who played them would just giggle. Heh.

Those heels... Ow

Anyway, we went to our temporary home and up to our rooms when Dad’s friend Maria, the woman who got us the tickets in the first place, called him and told him that, guess what?, we’re going to the afterparty.

 

 

 

 

 

Yeah.

YEAH, THE FREAKING AFTERPARTY,

Uh, so, yeah, that’s new.

Like, really new.

Anyway, the afterparty was spectacular. There were so many famous

Me and Jackie... yeah, I can call her Jackie now

people! We saw ALL of the tributes, not Jen or Josh though. We saw Liam in a corner with Miley Cyrus though, surrounded by guard-like people. But we met Wes Bentley who was sweet and busy so I didn’t get a pic but still incredibly awesome. We’re from the same state. And I met Jackie Emerson who plays Foxface. Jackie was FANTASTIC. Probably one of the nicest people ever. Then Dad, Maxx, Maddie, and I had a thirty minute convo with Latarsha Rose who played Portia. We talked about Bones… and you know, The Hunger Games.

And then I met Darren Chris. You see, I like to believe I am cool and collected even around the most famous people (I mean, look at who I’ve met) but around Darren I kinda freaked. I mean, AVPM is kinda what got me addicted to the internet. But the night was yet to be purely awesome.

Fangirls are going to murder me...

Because then we saw Suzanne Collins. She also had one of Liam and Miley’s security men and her agent was shew-shewing people away but we went anyway. And we got to meet Suzanne Collins. Later Maddie, Maxx, and I were talking and we decided the only thing more awesome than meeting Suzanne would be meeting Jo. And that would kill me.

So that was quite possibly the best vacation of my life. (It still ties with when Dad and I went to go see the shuttle take off…) There’s not much for me to say about Day Four so I’m not going to since all we did was leave.

So… yeah. That was awesome, and it’s kinda bittersweet to be home… but I missed my spot on my couch. And my pretty 10.6.8 version Mac OS X. And my map of world domination.
