Living Off the Land

My friend Katrina who I haven't seen in about three years came over today for a couple of hours.  We were best friends in kindergarten and remained friends for years after she started going to a different school.  Then she moved to a different state with her mom, and I didn't see her for years.  She came back to visit her dad and other family, but something was always going on so we never got to see each other.  We had a lot of fun though.  She says that she'll be spending the whole summer here, so we'll get to see each other a lot.  I'm excited!  She's an awesome friend, and I really miss her.

We went out to eat today for my mom's birthday.  We went to Cracker Barrel.  Usually, I get the same thing everytime we go, but this time I decided to try something different.  I wish I had stuck to what I normally get.  The food wasn't bad, but I don't think it was as good.

After we ate, we were looking around the store, and I found a Brady Bunch DVD that had the first seven episodes on it.  I wanted to get it because I was obsessed with that show when I was younger, but my mom wouldn't let me buy it.  She said it was too expensive which it was, so it's probably a good thing I didn't get it.  My dad did find this book about "how to live off the land" or something like that.  It tells you how to do a bunch of stuff like grow a garden, make a rug, skin animals, and a bunch of other stuff.  I have no idea why we wanted it, but he got it.  All I ended up getting was a stick of lemon flavored candy.  I love the flavor of lemon, just saying.

Then, we went to Target.  I wasn't going to get anything, but we passed the books so I had to look.  I ended up buying City of Bones by Cassandra Clare.  I've heard so many things about this series, so I really want to read it.  I have so many other books that I need to read first though.  It may take a while.

I watched episode 140 of Naruto last night.  I actually watched it before I posted last night's blog post, but I forgot to mention it.  *SPOILERS*  The thing with the heart really creeped me out.  I couldn't even look at the screen, but I had to read the subtitles.  It made it difficult to watch.
