theres something so nice about sitting in my little red and white jumper, at my computer, attached to speakers, on ashley's bed, right in front of the cool breeze of the air conditioner. i haven't done much else than this since i've been home. i've watched a little bit of supercable downstairs on the big screen tv, but i dont' have too much of a desire to watch tv lately. not since all my shows ended. now theres only the hope that one of the hbo channels are playing a good movie.
things are happening though. today my sister didn't have school so instead of letting her play video games all day, we baked the most amazing chocolate cake. i think it's the most delicious cake i've ever baked. i wish i could prove it, but cake doesn't travel well through the mail. then i exercised while eri played sonic, but then i made her do some stretches and weights with me because shes scrawny and she really needs to stop playing video games. i can't believe my mom is just letting her stay at home during july because camp doesn't start until august. it's so bad for her. i told my dad we should ship her off to bolivia to live with our step-grandma and have her work on a cow farm or something. he seemed to think it was a great idea. it would be so good for her to just be forced into a situation like that because those people down there are very traditional and strict and would never take her bullshit or let her play video games. i wish i had the power to make that happen. just ship her off, it's the only option we've got left to fix her at this point. she's on a very dangerously anti-social spiral which can only end in her being very non-self-sufficient and have no communication skills.
if she wasn't going upstate with my dad this weekend i'd maybe take her to the mocca festival thing, at least peak her interest in comics. because its one of few things she's interested in that i approve of and would want her to get more involved in. she needs a good influence. a friend her age she can look up to to get her motivated. but no one can stand being around her. she's so annoying and awkward. its really unfortunate.
i need a good book to read this summer. summer is the only time i'm ever able to sit down and read. any suggestions?
