Week 13

My family has a ton of traditions that everyone has to follow or my mother becomes very angry. My mom always has to prepare the house for thanksgiving. She goes into cleaning mode like it is spring time or something. First she demands dad and I to power wash the outside of the house and rake up any leaves that were left behind from fall. Then we have to clean the windows and shine the door knobs. after outside work is done, then it is on to inside work. Polish the fine silverware, wax the wood floors and dust all of the curved crown molding so the wood work of the home looks nice (as mom always preaches). Then after all of the cleaning and dusting and putting away things. It is time to invite the guests for Thanksgiving. "Do you know what I am thankful for? That I am finished cleaning the damn house!"

    But when you grow up, wouldnt you appreciate a nice house to walk into for thanksgiving instead of a dirty one?

Week 12

Guide for small talk The best advice to give a person. (Is that if the coffee maker doesn't make hot chocolate then the only answer is that it is just a coffee maker.) My favorite advice to give is... (Sometimes a fish has to swim to get food but since the fish is food, it's OK to stay in on place.) If someone is sad just tell them this one... (It's going to be OK because I got your doctor on speed dial if you get hurt.) If anyone is angry about something tell them this... (If the fat kid -Boston- wants a Chocolate bar give him an apple instead.) If you don't know what to say, a safe sentence is... (Hell is a place where satin lives,  -person's name-  should visit him.) I am very good at small talk, I use this guide all of the time. It is so helpful.

Scary Monsters

When I was little I was terrified of E.T. My brother loved E.T., he had the movie, all of the memorabilia and a little robot doll. The part in the movie where he is hiding in the closet among all the stuffed animals, scared the crap out of me. I used to think he was hiding in my closet ready to jump out and attack me or something. There was another part in the movie that really grossed me out. It is when E.T. runs away and falls into a creek. When they finding him, he is like a pasty white and his heart is pounding red. Also my brother would chase me with the robot E.T. until I would start crying.

I used to be very passionate about trains when I was little but, I have kind of grown out of that stage and now I just want to build cool stuff. I tend to get on youtube a lot and look at stuff other people have made. Then I try and figure out how they did it, and what machines did they use to build it. Probably the coolest machine I have is a drill press. That machine can do so many things, I can drill any size hole, in just about any kind of material. It is great for building very small things because of it's precision guided setup. Plus it has a depth stop so I can do milling and sanding with different attachments. Every time I use my drill press I feel like I am driving a yacht or something because of the big spinning handle on the side.
