Rocks and Socks

Hi, it's me again! I realize I forgot to mention my beloved dog, Fox! Here's the scoop...
                  Our story began one fateful day, as we set out to our state's capital to get our new golden retriever puppy. On the way, list of names were made and debated until we decided upon just a few out of forty. When we arrived at the breeder, low and behold, there was a huge wire cage with four of the cutest golden retriever puppies. Three wore collars and were content with eating their dry dog kibble, but the collar-less fourth one (the most golden and cute of them all) saw us and went berserk. She jumped at her cage, her tail wagging and her ears back. The breeder let them out and the three ambled off, but the fourth one stayed with us, licking and jumping and wagging her tail. And so our journey began.....
                The journey consisted of getting up every four hours at night for three months, to let her out to do her business. Fox was an energetic puppy, bounding to and fro, hither and yon. And very, very "mouthy" as our vet put it. "Yeah", we said, "Mouthy, bitey, chewy!" Fox was bright and chipper with every intention for mischief. What does hair, socks, rocks, ropes, wires, paper, magazines, cats, clips, pencils, and grass have in common.? It's apparently part of the Fox diet! One day, Fox got sick and we didn't know why. We drove her to the emergency vet place. We were all so scared and prayed for our little puppy, but it passed and she came back lively and chipper as ever....
              Fox is still a puppy, but most of her destructive eating habits are over. Except for rocks and socks, of course...
                  Even though Fox bit us, ate up our magazines when we weren't looking, and tried to eat Kitty, we still love her and we've forgiven her. As Christians, God has already forgiven us. When we become a Christian, Jesus' blood pays for our past, present, and future sin. Not that we should go on biting and chewing up magazines, because we've said no to that and yes to God. But praise God, that He saved you, because no one can do it themselves!
                          Anyway, thanks for reading this! You'll probably be hearing about the escapades of Fox. Now if you'd excuse me, I should go see if Kitty's all right....

The Good Dinosaur

Hi, Page Turner again! In case you were wondering, I had a blast on Valentine's Day and I'm now back for a brand-new movie review! Today, I was able to watch the Good Dinosaur and was left with feelings of Jurassic proportions...   The Good Dinosaur starts out with incredible CGI landscapes inspired by the Wyoming mountains, as a green dinosaur couple looks over their three eggs that are starting to hatch, in a moment akin to the very beginning of Finding Nemo. Each of the eggs hatch out three young dinosaurs, but Arlo is the very smallest of his family. As the summers pass and the farming family grows, Arlo's brother and sister place their footprints on the side of their corn silo, besides their parents, indicating they've 'made a mark' on the world. Everybody in his family has one except Arlo; everything in life scares him. His kind Papa tries one day to help Arlo prove his bravery and earn his mark by capturing and destroying the critter that eats from their...

Marvel Movies Review

Alrighty, a movie review! It's been a while, but I love doing these...      Okay, so I've recently watched the Avengers, Avengers 2, Winter Soldier, and Iron Man. (Do you see a pattern?) Here's the rundown: Avengers is really good. It's got violence, and some language, but a lot of funny dialogue, heroic deeds, and suspense, plus a good ol' superhero/modern-end-of-world feel to it. Thor's brother, Loki, teams up with an alien-robot race to take over the world, so S.H.I.E.L.D. must contact Iron Man, Black Widow, Captain America, The Hulk, Thor, and eventually Hawk Eye to save the day. The problem? They don't get along well. In fact, mayhem and dissension could appropriately describe this band of strange heroes with tons of emotional baggage. The team must learn to work together, or the world will suffer the consequences. Avengers 2 is once again riddled with violence and some language, but again has the same redeeming qualities. Hydra springs up once more...

An Ode to My iPod: Part 2

iPod, you were in your plastic baggy I stared at you as I cleaned the kitchen How broken you were! The rice could not fix you, it seemed A friend suggested I get a new one Replace you, dear iPod? I had no other choice! You've been with me through a lot, dear iPod Through my first couple basketball games Through that terrible thunderstorm I listened to you during my sad times I played you when I was happy Your music reminded me of good memories Why, wonderful iPod, why did I let you get wet? It was such an innocent thunderstorm I held you as I listened to your song But was it for the last time? I listened to you as we drove long miles Your ability to store music astounds me So many memories are in those songs! My little iPod, you played as we grouted the porch You were beside me in the late nights when I couldn't sleep You lie on my pillow, supplying me with audio as I draw Dear little iPod, your music kept me running I guess I shall have to say good-bye,...
