what's going on.

I'm just going to tell you whats happening around here. So I spent the night at the cousins house, and they have a mouse problem. I was down stairs, reading a book. JJ and Fall called for me, so I went up stares. When I got there there was a little brown and white thing sitting on the floor. "It's a gerbil!" said Fall. It was not a gerbil, it was a mouse. Fall had never seen a brown mouse before, all the ones she had ever seen were gray.  So she thought it was a gerbil. We discovered it was a live when I poked it with a pencil and it bit the pencil. I put a cup over it, then grabbed a plastic box and forced the mouse in to that. After a little while we took it out side and left it in the prairie behind the house.

Other things that happened, I entered in a novel writing competition. I have to write 50,000 words bye the end of the mounth. I already have over 10,000. I think I can do it, I just have to write a lot. You get pep talks from various authors, and I was reading them. There was Meg Cabot, Gail Carleson, and a few others that I knew. Then there was Lemony Snicket. His pep talk was not very peppy. He mostly talked about how hard it is to write a book, and that we should all just give up. I ignored his pep talk.

 I'm going to spend the night at Neg's house this weekend. I'm excited because we're going to do a skit at their church. I have more lines in the skit than I do in the whole play I'm in. I play a lady named Marge who talks on the phone. JJ and Morgie Play Bears who chase Daboy around the stage. It should be interesting. Bye Bri!
