9.16 a She woke me up at the crack of dawn. But only my mom can get away with it because she's 14! Happy birthday to my mom, although I sincerely hope she never reads my journal. We are going down to visit my grandparents today. That's another 4 hours in the car, luckily I don't have to drive. My grandparents put an article in 2 papers down by where they live for a card shower so my mom's gotten 25 cards so far in the mail. I'm jealous. But then again, this only happens once every 4 years. Look mom! I can type normal again! My mom went out and bought a super cool wireless keyboard and mouse. My sister and I were both impressed and wish we could afford $100 for a keyboard and mouse. Instead, I will just come home and use my mom's as much as possible. Dilemma #1: Where to go on spring break? Dilemma #2: Yes/no/what the heck do I do? I hope nothing comes of it. I guess we will just have to see. Dilemma #3: What to do this summer? Yeah, that's a big one. And anyone who doesn't think that it's soon, believe me, you better start planning now. Hopefully, Erica will be able to get me the stuff on Trek and I will be able to go on that, God willing. We will see. Dilemma #4: Should I shower today? he he he, just kidding. :) Yesterday, I drove my grandma around to run errands since she can't drive yet. She's so funny. At one point, she sat in the seat behind me because the parking space was really small and she didn't want to slip on some ice. I was like "The Grandma Express is ready to leave . . . toot toot" and she laughed and called me her chauffer. I told her to sit in the back and wave but she said then she'd look looney. I went out to eat with my mom, sister, grandma, dad, Peggy, and Phil last night. We went to Anthony's Steakhouse. It was funny because only one person ordered steak. I don't eat it but everyone else usually does. My sister, the beef queen of the universe (not actually, since we don't have weird titles like that in Omaha) suprizingly didn't order steak. She shared a pork chop dish thing with my mom. Anyways, afterwards, my mom, sister, and I went to Barnes & Noble (aka - heaven) and then to see Mystic River. It was like deja vu at the movie because I forgot that I had read the first part of the book once at the bookstore and so I was like "this is weird, I think I know what's going to happen". Yes, very freak-o-locial. you know you love me ;)
