Some Say The World Will End In Fire, Some Say In Ice


I am re-reading the Twilight series (again) and I can't help falling deeper in love with it. Seriously, if you are female and you haven't read these books yet, you probably A) live under a rock, or B) cannot read yet. And now that I've dubbed myself the "Twilight Missionary" (spreading the message to those who have not yet heard of this fantabulous book), I have finally come across a road block!!! I really REALLY want to give a copy to my friend Rika who lives in Japan, but I can't find out how to get it in Japanese. I know they must have it because my friend Gina (from Thailand) found it in Thai, and after she explained the story to me (as I haven't a clue what the sqiggly lines mean) I am confident that it is in fact my beloved Edward and Bella. If anyone knows how I might acquire Twilight translated into Japanese, PLEASE let me know!!!! I really want to give her that book. I know she will love it! And maybe she might spread the word in Japan. That would be AWESOME! They LOVE this kinda stuff!

From The Mouths Of Babes



Background Story: A couple of years ago I was babysitting JT while mom was out running erands. JT wanted to watch a movie so I turned around to get the DVD started. In the few seconds that I was not watching him he found and tried to swallow a marble!!!! I turned back around and his face was turning purple and he couldn't make any noise.... he was choking!! I went into panic mode and I hardly remember doing it but I quickly sat beside him with one hand on his back and the other made a fist quickly "punching" his diaphragm... the "Heimlich Maneuver". It worked and the marble flew (at a good distance,too) out of his mouth onto the floor. I think this was by FAR the most traumatizing experience I've had while babysitting.

The Reason I'm Telling You All This: Tonight while everyone was eating dinner JT was entertaining everyone by retelling this horrifying experience. "... and then I found the marble, and tried to swallow it, and I CHOKED!!.....and then Megan came up behind me and did the BARF DANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!" Where he came up with the "Barf Dance"???? I have no idea.
