Oct. 7, 2007 - Peanut Butter and Jelly
Peanut Butter and Jelly
Me: "You know, I don't really understand it, but I just have SO much fun being with Sarah! It's awesome. We just have a nice time together, and I'm not sure why it's so great to be with her... it just IS! hm?"
Laura: "I know why."
me: "oh?"
Laura: "Yeah. You're like peanut butter and jelly. They taste so good together, but nobody really knows why. It's just cuz God made them that way - they taste yummy and just go so well together. That's how it is."
I guess Janie is the milk. Orphan milk! HA!
It was so great to be with friends this weekend! Laura, Sarah, Janie, Bekka and I had suuuch a great time. We watched North and South. (What a nice nose! :^) ( 'O') We talked about a certain name, and how the people who own it generally have a common characteristic. We laughed for no reason... And sometimes we laughed with a reason. (Like the "love scene" in Janie's play...)
And visiting Calvary today was great! Hi to all you sweet Calvary people! It was so good to see you guys! Wonderful, actually. ?And I'm very sorry if you're a Calvary person and I didn't get to talk to you!
On the way home, we accidentally turned off 75 onto 285, but it wasn't a big deal, cuz I knew to just get right back on 75. lol. I can't believe we drove to Acworth friday, and then home from Smyrna today. Wow. And we're alive and well, and everything! And I didn't even whine and be crazy sad when it was time to go. I just smiled and said bye.
Anyways, it's been a LOVELY weekend. Really.
Have a lovely Sunday evening.
I'm happy.
^.^

Where do you want to be in 5 years?
Hm... I shall be 23. I should like to be married, and have a nice little home, and to have accomplished something "big"... like maybe publishing a book? Or learning a foreign language? But, anyways. Married.
lolHow do you handle a rainy day?
Read a book, sip some tea... cozy things like that.
Or lie around and watch TV and wish for some sunshine... it depends.
What is the truest thing that you know?
God is who He says, His Word is true, and a deep relationship with Him is vital for a meaningful and joyful life.
What is the most physically painful thing that has ever happened to you?
um... Maybe my costochondritis... felt like being stabbed with a knife. yay.
Who have you hugged today?
Would you like a list, or the most recent person? A list would be more funner.
Who has done something today to show they care about you?
Mrs. Lunsford was really sweet. She told me that if I ever wanted to come to Calvary without driving all the way, I could go to her house and ride with them.
If you could learn how to do three things just by wishing and not by working what would they be?
1. Play the guitar
2. Learn French and Spanish (I guess that was cheating)
3. Get a car. (or that truck I told y'all about)
Which do you remember the longest: what other people say, what other people do or how other people make you feel?
How they make me feel.
What 5 things do you want to do before you die?
1. Learn another language
2. Travel lots
3. Have my own family
4. Be an author
5. LIVE!
What book are you currently reading?
Nothing, actually... Weird, I know.
Is there a movie that you love so much you could watch it everyday?
Uh, no. But there are a lot of movies that I could watch pretty frequently. The Lion King, for instance.
List five random things about yourself.
1. I love my socks.
2. I like to say "mefinks" and "probly" and "dreffly" and other shortened versions of stuffs.
3. I don't really like my braces.
4. I like mustard. It's my favorite condiment.
5. I purposely use bad grammar. It's more funner.
Have you ever dreamt a dream that came true?
Not that I'm aware of.
What is your idea of paradise?
Besides for heaven?
I'm not sure...
What one thing have you done that most people haven't?
Apparently, most people haven't danced with a broom... I have.
What is the kindest thing you have ever done?
Um... I don't know. (Great, now I feel bad...)
Are you a patient person?
Not really, but I'm working on it.
Where is the most fun place you have EVER been?
The most fun place... the WILDS summer camp. But it would have been so much more fun if my friends had been there.
What is under your bed right now?
That is a very good question... I think boxes of letters, and ... I'm not sure. But I know have 2 or 3 shoeboxes of letters.
Would you consider yourself to be romantic?
Yes. But not hopelessly so.
What is the one thing that you love to do so much that you would make sacrifices to be able to do it?
See my friends! I shelled out 20 dollars for this weekend. And I need new shoes. lol.

Nothing. **yawn** I wish there were.
Is there anyone you trust completely?
Yes.
Your favorite place in the world?
Wherever the people I love are.
What could a member of the opposite sex do to impress you?
Play a mean guitar. Or sing really well. Or BOTH! (I'm actually more impressed by gentlemanliness, though. A friend of mine held the door open for me and my sister today as we walked around church, and I was impressed.)
Do you ever have moments where you feel like everything is all right in the world?
Yes. I call those my "I just want to hug the whole world and everyone in it" moments.
Favorite verse(s):
You know, I'm not very good with favorites.
Person you admire?
Paul the apostle.
When you see a stranger on the street does your first reaction lean towards thinking of this person as a potential friend or as a potential threat?
I'm really not sure. When I see a stranger on the street, I simply think "Oh look! A stranger on the street!"
Vanilla or Chocolate?
vanilla, in most instances. Well... at least for coffee beverages. I like chocolate pudding and chocolate cake better.
Is it natural for human beings to fear and distrust each other, or is it cultural?
I would say natural... Not like I go around distrusting everyone for no reason...
You have to choose. Would you be happier marrying someone rich for their money or living in the streets and subway tunnels with someone you love?
I love how it says "you have to choose." Who's going to make me? but I will choose anyways. (don't hold me to this, y'all.)
I will say marrying someone rich for their money. And I say this because if you marry someone poor and live in subway tunnels, it's bound to stretch you, cause stress and tension, and damage your relationship. If you marry someone rich, even if you're not in love, you can learn to love a person. Especially if conditions are favorable, I would assume.
What do you feel unworthy of?
Everything I have been blessed with. I deserve nothing, and have so much more than I could ever say thank you for.
What makes you want to be someones friend?
that's a good question. I'm not really sure. But genuinness is a key.
Is fifty dollars a lot of money?
Yep. Most of the time.
Least favorite chore?
Washing dishes. Then peeling potatoes.
When are you planning to move to a new home?
In 3.5 years, 7 hours, and 9.6 minutes.
**shrugs** Whenever I get married, I suppose.
What instrument would you like to be famous for playing?
Guitar.
Which is more romantic: an expensive, glittering bouquet OR flowers that were hand picked as they grew beside the parkway?
It depends on what kind of flowers they are.
So, there you have it.
Feel free to copy it and do it yourself. I love reading these.

Oct. 1, 2007 - Promo!
So. I set up a little shop online to sell my wares.
If you would like to take a look, all you have to do is click these words.
If you wouldn't like to take a look, then sit tight, because I'm forcing you to!
**evil, but cute laughter**
First, we have my newest listing:
A slouchy beret-type hat. I think it's way cute.
Maybe I'll do a little promo for Avon, too...
I'm wearing my new makeup. It's awesome. Love the lipstick.
Next, we have my personal favorite listing:
Woo hoo! Pink Heather Cap! Yay!
But that's not all! This bracelet's pretty sweet, too!
Anyways. That's all I'll make you endure for now.
Just thought I'd do a little self-promotion.
And just a little for a friend.
so... Preschool's going well... And... I just bought some cute boots...and makeup...
And I haven't sold anything yet, so I didn't buy anything else.
lol
Later!

Oh, and I got braces, too.

Happy preschool picture post coming soon. :)

Sep. 12, 2007 - Life as of Now
Life as of NowAt the moment, I have an ache in my head, and chicken pie in the microwave.Since I've come back from Aunt Cindy's house, life hasn't taken a break. You may have noticed by my lack of posting. That's not to say, of course, that I haven't been online. Just not blogging. I've also neglected my journal, prayer book, and letter writing. I suppose my writing juices just haven't been flowing. They've been cut off. Anyways, for anyone who was wondering, busy though it is, life is good. Work is good. Cubbies is good. My room is not so good. But I'm not talking about that right now. At preschool, the little girls love Miss Jessica, but the little boys love me. Exactly as I would have it.  I think boys are more fun. Always have. I'll get pics of our preschool classes up someday. It's going really well, though. They all seem to like being there... Though Hayden does run across the room and hide when we do anything in a group. One little girl, Jaxon, calls both me and Jessica "mama." I guess it's just easier than learning to say Jessica and Caitlin.  In Cubbies, the little new boy that's the biggest, and the most trouble, knew his verses perfectly. I was astounded. The teacher said something about God, and David shouted "GOD LOVED US AND SENT HIS SON!!!!" Of course, he was supposed to be sitting still and being quiet. But he knew it. Very well. Good for him!I could tell you all of the driving mistakes I've made lately... going the wrong direction on 81, getting confused surrounded by one way streets, and others that I'd rather not share.  But, hey! I'm still alive, right? And that's what matters.More news: I will never look the same again after tomorrow afternoon. Wow. I hadn't thought of it like that yet. lol. But, yes. I'm scheduled to have braces put on tomorrow at 2. So... here goes nothing. I'm feeling rather like a growed-up lately, what with teaching children, filling out paperwork for myself, driving myself around, and being responsible for my braces payments. All except actually getting/having braces... "What? You're getting braces? Aren't you kinda old for braces?" lol. Better late than never. Oh, and I finally went to the "college and career" Sunday School class. I'm totally out of the youth group now. I liked the class, and think I'll enjoy it, but it's strange to be a "younger one" again. Just like it was strange to be one of the oldest in the youth group. I think being the youngest makes me feel a little more insecure. I'm a little used to being the oldest. Not that I particularly love it all the time. And I still like to go hang out in the hallway with my youth group friends. It's lovely when people say, "Did you have fun away from us? We missed you!"Tomorrow we're going to hear Ravi Zacharias. I'm really looking forward to it. I've heard that he's awesome, and pretty much everyone I know that's going is excited, but I've never heard him before. So, yeah. Like I said, I'm really looking forward to it. Another good thing lately is that I've made a new friend! Hoorah! Thank you to Sarah for introducing me to Rachel. But most of you don't know who Rachel is, so that doesn't mean a whole lot to you... Oh well. She's sweet. Well, I think I've rambled long enough. I hope this wasn't too burdensome for you all, and I hope you haven't given me up for dead yet. I'll try not to be so obscure in the future. Love y'all, and have a beautiful day. Caitlin |

So, I just wrote this big whole long post that was kinda sorted excerpted from my journal, about my trip to the beach last night. Should I post it all at once, or break it down into a little mini series?

Aug. 18, 2007 - Randomness for my Homies, Yo!
Fear not, for I do not usually use such terminologies as "homies" and "yo"...
I take that back... I do say "yo" when I'm feeling crazy. Which is pretty often.
Like I said, this is just randomness.
I'm drinking a cup of fresh brewed Starbucks Decaf House Blend ... black with sugar. Yum.
I need to pack tonight. I'll be gone most of tomorrow, visiting relatives after church. Then I'm leaving Monday morning, and I'll be gone for 2 weeks. I'll still be able to get online, though. And you could send me a postcard. LOL
Anyways. I do NOT want to pack. No, not at all. But I can't do it tomorrow or monday! But I don't want to go in my room by myself! I will be lonely! Which is why I wish I could call Bekka. But she hasn't replied to my message, so I don't know if it's ok for me to call! I love my Bekka. **sniff** She's my sweet little weirdo blob thing sister. And that is a pet name, not an insult. I love Sarah, too, but I don't call her a blob thing. She's too refined.
So. I'm going off to Florida. And my father is talking to a fish. But we'll just pretend I didn't say that... I talk to fish, too... But what was I saying? Yes. I'm going to Florida. And when I come back from Florida, I'm going to start work. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Preschool teacher! yay!! And some of you may have seen that I went to an AWANA conference today -which is whyfor because of the reason that I'm going to be a Cubbies leader! YAY again! So, I should have lots of cute little kid stories this year. I'm really looking forward to it, but being so busy is definitely going to be a change of pace. Welcome to the real world? Maybe so.
But I was just talking to mi papa, and he informed me that he's still 25 in his mind. I told him I intend to stay 19 or 20 in my mind for the rest of my life. What mental age would you like to stay?
In other news: ... um. I can't think of anything. It was great to see people from some of my old churches at the conference. And we heard this really great preacher. He used to be an evangelist. I like evangelists.
Oh, right, other news: My parents might let me and Laura drive up to Calvary every 5th sunday afternoon and stay the rest of the day. Just an idea, but they both seemed open to it. So, maybe like every 5th Sunday we'll come up and we can chill wif our friends at ... somewhere. CBC, or the ever-popular Starbucks... or somewhere. I hope it will actually work out.
Love to ya all!

Aug. 13, 2007 - Speaking of Waiting...
Speaking of waiting (recall my last post), I shall be waiting some time for my Prince. Ask ye why? Read on, dear friend, read on.
"Caitlin! Caitlin! We found your prince!" They cried. Leah, Rebecca, and Tabitha had sought a prince for the princess all the day before with no luck. They even yelled "Frog!" multiple times, in a vain attempt to find an eligible young man who would answer to the call. On Saturday morning, they met me running with wide arms, to share this momentous news. "Where?" I asked, doubting. "Over there! ... He's dead."
~The End~

Aug. 10, 2007 - This one's for the girls...
I was strolling along online and I came across The Burning Candle. Girls, I recommend you take a look. Even if you're not struggling, it's really encouraging.
Once upon a time, I had a list something like this one. Experiencing God's responses is overwhelming... Being content in Christ is lovely. (for lack of beautiful, flowery, intelligent speech.)
I want to be loved.
"I have loved you with an everlasting love..." Jeremiah 31:3
I want someone to adore me.
The King has brought me into his chambers to adore me. (Song 1:4)
I want someone to hold my hand.
"I will uphold you with My righteous right hand." (Is. 41:10)
I want to be accepted and valued.
I am accepted in the Beloved (Eph. 1:6. KJV)
I want a place, a nesting place that is my own to create and use.
We can rest in the shadow of the Almighty. (Ps. 91:1)
I want help in my days of trouble.
"And call upon Me in the day of trouble; I shall rescue you..." (Ps. 50:15)
I want to share my life - the joys and the struggles - with one person.
God will share with me the treasures of darkness and hidden riches. (Is. 45:3)
I want a champion of my causes - one who is willing to fight for me.
The Lord will fight for you. (Ex. 14:14)
I want someone to meet my needs.
God is meeting all my needs. (Phil. 4:19)
I want intimacy.
The Lord is intimate with the upright. (Ps. 140:13)
I want someone to help me in my life.
There is no one like God who rides the heavens to help you. (Deut. 33:26)
I want to walk through life sustained and carried. I don't want the whole load of life.
Even to my old age, God will sustain me, carry me, and rescue me. (Is. 46:4)
I want a companion for this life.
God invites us to humbly walk with Him. (Mic. 6:8)
I desire children.
God gives us spiritual children like the numberless grains of sand if we invest in lives. (Is. 48:19)
Everyone longs to give themselves completely to someone, to have a deep soul relationship with another,
to be loved thoroughly and exclusively.
But God says to the Christian, "No, not until you are satisfied, fulfilled, and content with being loved
by Me alone. Not until you have given yourself totally unreservedly to Me, until you have an intensely personal and unique relationship with Me alone.
Not until you have discovered that only in Me is your satisfaction to be found.
Then will you be capable of the perfect human relationship that I have planned for you.
You will never be united with another until you are united with Me,
exclusive of anyone or anything else,
exclusive of any other desires or longings.
I want you to stop planning, stop wishing, and allow Me to give you the most thrilling plan existing,
one that you cannot imagine.
I want you to have the best. Please allow Me to bring it to you.
Just keep watching Me, expecting the greatest things.
Keep experiencing the satisfaction that I Am.
Keep listening & learning the things I tell you.
You just wait,
that's all.
Have a good weekend!
~Princess Caitlin

Aug. 8, 2007 - No Ideas
|
|
No IdeasWell, today I feel like blogging, but I have No Ideas. So, what I do is this. I sit down at the computer, and I start typing. I really don't know what I'm going to say next. I was talking to Sarah last night. She was telling me for how the sake of time, she writes down her posts if they're going to be more than a paragraph or so long, and then just types it in when she gets to the computer. I thought Anne was the only one that did that. I guess not. I wonder how many other people do. Do you? How many other people do like me, and just open up the editor and wait til the words come? Ever just been typing and then realized "oh. Probly shouldn't say that."?
lol Somehow it seems like the 20th is coming up awful fast. What's important about the 20th, you ask? I'm flying to Florida on the 20th, that's what. All by me little 18 year old lonesome. Then I'm going to spend about 2 weeks with my aunt, uncle, and cousins. They're nice. My little people are already asking when's lunch. It's only 10:30! I would say nice things about people, but I'd be afraid of leaving someone out and then they'd be unhappy. This is the weirdest post... maybe I shouldn't just log in and start typing again anytime soon.
Have a nice day Me |

Aug. 5, 2007 - Lately
Well. I know I need to update, but I don't really have a ... plan... of what to say. So, I'll do my usual thing, I suppose: start rambling and see where it goes!
Wednesday morning I got up a little after 5 AM. Laura, Mama, and I left for Calvary Baptist Church, from whence we all went to the Student Prayer Advance in Virginia. I was sorely disappointed that Laura and I didn't get to ride in the bus Mama was driving. We rode up there with the Johnston girls. They're sweet, but I didn't know them very well, so I was feeling a little unsure. As it turns out, I really enjoyed the ride. Those girls were so sweet. They told some funny stories, and we talked about different stuff, and sang, and it was just really nice. I'm glad that I didn't get to ride the bus.
We made it to Virgina sometime around 8, I think. I'm really not sure. The whole weekend was wonderful. I confessed some pride issues I've been dealing with, and got totally right with God. The greatest part of the weekend, considering the spiritual aspect, was learning about the power of intercessory prayer. I've always loved prayer, and the fact that I can help my friends by praying for them, but a lot of people, myself included, really came away with a deeper burden for other people, and a strong desire to intercede on their behalf.
Highlights include(and I'm afraid that these are not in chronological order):
- heartbreak (cchhshrrrrriiiip!)
- being a princess with bodyguards, a minion, extra, secondary bodyguards and minions, and loyal subjects.
- finding my Prince on the last day. Dead and Squished on the pavement. (pictures to come, one day)
- giggling for absolutely no reason
- using the elevator walls as mirrors
- midnight trip to get an extra pillow
- giving an unwanted stack of cookies to a whole group of guys playing volleyball, then watching them try to eat as they played
- receiving a lovely book from the Johnstons for my eighteenth birthday
- pretending to be a Calvary person, and singing with their choir (YAY for Pastor Powell!!)
- becoming friends with girls I've never really talked to before (Justine, Payton, Rosalie)
- breakfast at the hotel: eating those weird eggs "for protein;" trying a bagel, being in shock over the fact that there even exists such a thing as "fat free cream cheese," throwing it away, then watching about 3 other people throw theirs away; warning Bro. Palmer about the rubber bagels
- running up and down the 4 flights of stairs for excerise.
- visiting "the Fake Jamestown"
- praying in our hotel room
- talking about the events of the weekend, and other things, on Friday night, when we all ought to have been getting ready for bed, and packing
- mama making Bekka get in the shower next because she needed to chill out lol
- okay, so I can't even tell you how much fun it was hanging out with Sarah all weekend
- Janie, Bekka, Payton, and I "entertaining the guys" as they stood in line for the cafeteria
- Janie, Bekka, Sarah, and I "seeing ourselves on tv" (the reflection), and taking pictures of each other
- going for a walk down Random Road
- rejoicing for being able to ride home on the bus!!!
- the amazing weirdness of Solomon Fontenot at TacoBell/KFC on the way home
- discovering that Sarah, Sollee, and I are "one" (
that cleared up a lot of confusion. LOL) - the abundance of polite, young gentlemen
I liked the evangelists there, but I have to say, I still found myself really wishing Brother Rich Tozour was there again this year.
He is such a blessing. Anyways. I don't think I'm going to really get anywhere by rambling more about it. The point is, I was really, really blessed, and have a greater burden to pray for the people I love. God was definitely with us. I also had TONS of fun. And, seriously, if you have any thing at all that I can pray for you about, please let me know.Oh, and in case you were wondering why Laura was not really "in" with a lot of the stuff I listed, it's not because I don't love her. It's because she's such a blessed little social butterfly that she was always off galavanting (well, socializing) with different and new people!
As a side note: Today is my 18th birthday. No bells or fanfare or anything... Today is just a normal day. It's a little weird for such a "big" birthday to not be a big deal, but honestly, I am so tired, and so happy, that I really don't care. Today is a day of rest, and rest is what I intend to do.
Hopefully I'll get my driver's license soon. And I guess I should catch up on the political world... but I shan't worry about that now. I'll enjoy my popcorn and upload pics from the Advance.
Love y'all, and talk to you later!

Jul. 10, 2007 - Culinary Fun!
I decided to be the lunch maker, but couldn't find anything to make. We have tons of squash and zucchini from a neighbor's garden, and lots of frozen chicken breasts. I've been wanting soup since I got sick, so I decided to make some experiment soup. Boiled some chicken, sauteed some veggies, tomatoes, and garlic, cooked some orzo noodles, and threw it all in a pot with some vegetable flavored boullion and a can of random white kidney beans. Salt, pepper, and onion powder, too. It was SO good.
It could have done without the beans, but it was still good even with them. I wish I had taken pictures of the sauteed stuff. It was pretty. The Food Network is a lovely inspiration for my culinary expotitions. Last night I watched someone make a coffee granita. It was funny, because in the middle of what he was doing I said "hey! I've done that before! I already know how to do that. Ha. I just didn't know it was called granita..." And I decided to make more today. Brewed some strong coffee, added some sugar, put in a splash of milk to lighten it a little, and set it to cool before I froze it. Then I decided that it would be nice to put in some little mint chocolate chips. So I did. I put in a bigger handful than I meant to, but that's ok. I think it's time to stir up the flakes again. Be right back.
... Hokay. Back. Not quite as succesful as my other endeavors. lol. Too many mint chips. I can probably get the kids to eat it if I don't like how it turns out. Then I'll make more like I did last time. The last stuff turned out good.After brewing the coffee (and having a cup), I decided I would like to make something else. I've been wanting brownies for a few days and never had a good opportunity to make them, so I decided today would be good. First I mixed a bowlful of normal brownies. Doubled, of course. I love the recipe we use. Then I ground up some hazelnut coffee beans reeeeeally fine and made another small batch. For mwa.
With the coffee in it. oooooooh, it smelled so good. And I cooked them in a pan a little smaller than I was 'poseto, so they're fudgy. I call them Hazelnut Mocha brownies. I tasted them almost as soon as they came out of the oven. So good. Will definitely be making them again. Soon, probably. Unfortunately, we don't have any ice cream to have them with. Oh, and the plain ones turned out great, too. I'm not usually much of a chef, especially when it comes to baking, but sometimes I just have days when I feel like making something, so I figure I'd better seize the moment or whatever, before it decides to go away. lol I'm glad someone else is cooking dinner.
We had to clean the house today. Or, um... well, hide all the clutter. lol. Somebody had to come do an appraisal. So, it sounds like I was cooking all day, but I wasn't. Lots of cleaning, too. But now it's 5 o clock and everything's done, so I can just chill! Yay! I warded off my sickness all day, so now that I'm not busy, I think it's catching back up to me. Maybe I can manage to retire early tonight.
Methinks I'll take my leave now. Love y'all.
Caitlin
EDIT: I spoke too soon.
Guess who made dinner? lol. But it was easy. Tacos!

Jun. 8, 2007 - Art
I made this using a feature called "graffiti" on a social networking site. (Facebook, if you must know.)
I thought it turned out pretty cool, so here I am, posting it for you to see.
That's all.
I'm going to my Katey and Marmee's house today. That shall be lovely.
But now I must go take a shower.
Goodbye!

Jun. 5, 2007 - Can't think of a witty title...
Last night, I babysat two adorable little boys. Luke is 4, and Evan is 1. They're both good little kids, but Luke enjoys testing the limits. He laughs when you scold him, and says no when you tell him to stop whatever mischeif it is that he's getting into. He told me a story:
Maria arrived soon after that, and they loaded up and took me home. We pulled into my driveway, I got out, and told the boys bye, and then Luke said "Can I see your girlfriend?" I was a little confused... He gets boys and girls confused, too... He calls his mom "he" sometimes.
So, I could tell he was getting something confused... "Huh?" I said (ever the brilliant one). "You know! Your girlfriend! Could I see her?" And then I realized he meant my sister. (No idea which one, but, anyways...) I laughed, and tried very feebly to tell Maria the joke. My signs got all mixed up, though, and I think I just confused her... It was bad. (and then I felt stupid. lol) I turned around and told Luke, "She's not a girlfriend, she's my sister! And you'll get to see her again sometime." Maria's an excellent lipreader; she started laughing. So. That's all I have to say for now... Oh, except for I walked into the kitchen this morning, and Abby was making waffles. Emmie yelled from the den "hey, isn't it Wallace?" "Yeah. His name is Wallace!" Abby replied. "Who? Who's Wallace?" says I. "Oh, Ben. He's my cat."

I thought maybe I could set this up somehow so that it automatically recieves new posts frommy xanga and posts them here... I know other sites do that. Maybe it has the capability and I can't figure it out. **shrugs**
For now, copy and paste will suffice.
Have a nice day.
