Poisonwood B-i-b-l-e: Yes that's the book we read...

SOOOO I may not be a pastor's kid like Bre Rae but for a long portion of my life I felt like one. (My Grandpa's a pastor and he was super involved in raising and on and on yada yada yada)

But anyways, that's why this book makes me laugh so much. Making fun of "papist" Catholics. Quoting and misquoting Scripture. "Father's blessed Apocrypha which he has a hard time getting other Baptists to go along with" Mother's "pagan appreciation for the Bible" I just love it. It just makes me laugh, some of the things that happen in here kind of remind me in ways of my childhood....or are so starkly different that I just have to laugh!

Long Days...

Well... tomorrow will be fun...
Someone please call me this summer and tell me not to sign up for so much crap next year.

At least PWB is good.

PWB *rant*

I have decided that the only thing I hate about this book is the fact that I can't tell what is really in the bible and what isn't. I'll be reading along and it will reference something from the bible and I'll have to ask my dad if that's really in the bible or not. Ugh. I guess in a way it's good because I have to explore my own knowledge more, but still..couldn't they either choose to copy from the real bible all the way, or make up one? But even so...it's still a pleasant read :)

Poison Wood Bible YAY!


found this picture and thought it was a nice touch to our blog... being poison wood and all...

My Personal Fail Blog

I took a look at my portfolio today and realized I put in some of my sisters plaques from the Math Tournament. Even though I apparently nailed 5th year math as a freshmen... I felt really dumb.

Attractive Old Men For Teesha-

Hugh Laurie (a crowd favorite)

George Clooney (Oh he'll never grow out of being handsome)

Pierce Brosnan (uh-duh!)

Colin Firth (For the accent, talent, and face)

Robert Redford (I would marry Redford even if he was long dead and frozen)

These are my personal favorites. However, I fully respect your opinion because attractive old guys are all up to an individuals tastes!
