I Thought That Running For 3 Miles Would Make My Legs Hurt

Well, running for those 3 miles didn't. Hurt my legs, I mean. In fact, I feel no muscle pain or fatigue whatsoever from Saturday! Sure Saturday night I did nothing but watch TV.
Channel 50 was Disney's Mulan.
Channel 51 was Dreamworks' Shrek
Channel 55(I think) was Titanic
Channel 56(I think) was Underworld: Evolution.
I sat on the couch with a pack of Extra mint Chocolate Chip dessert gum and watched all four of those movies with Tim. It's only cause I don't like to have to focus on just one thing at a time.

Last Friday, on my school bus, I finished reading Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter, which was surprisingly historically accurate. Also It was written as if it were a biography. The book was AWESOME! So now, I am reading Dracula for the second time in two years. It's definitely better the second time around. The book is fantastic and full of suspense. I highly recommend it... to my future self, as well as anyone else interested. The fact that the story is a collection of letters and diary/journal entries from the various characters adds to the horror(genre), and makes it seem even more real. Bram Stoker is also great at descriptions, and it's incredibly easy to get lost in the story.(so make sure all your homework is done XD)

News of my baby brother:
Emmett is finally getting some hair! He's spent nearly his entire first years completely bald :)
Mom calls it "Peach Fuzz" and it's wicked soft. Just the other day, I was feeding him Cheerios, when he said "Cheerios," while pointing at them! He pronounced the word so well, that I could swear it was one of my siblings saying it if I hadn't seen his lips moving. He said it twice, but hasn't said it since. He's also taken to signing "more" in sign language.
How to sign "more": touch your four fingertips to the tip of your thumb(like your gonna make a dinosaur shadow puppet) with both hands and touch both your hands in that formation together so your fingertips and thumb tips touch. Do it repeatedly.

See ya!

P.S. Maybe if I run farther my legs will hurt... Hmmmm.
