MONDAY MORNING!(Bada-badadadada) So good to me...(Bada-badadadada)
It's bright and early Monday morning and I am glad to be posting. I'd like to note that being off from school is such a wonderful thing, that it simply must happen more often. Brains need rest. Children need to play. It's their nature. Or used to be. Before books, and calculators, and projects. I've been thinking about the musical front. What else have you got to see? Well, we've hit The Sound of Music, Oklahoma, My Fair Lady, The Music Man, Annie, Singin' in the Rain. Is that it, folks? You still need to see Chicago, West Side Story, Funny Face, An American in Paris, The King and I, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (It's a good mockery movie.) And I'm sure there's more. Your musical adventure has just now begun. Oh, yea, and you need to watch the newer Annie, because Victor Garber tap-dances. Anyway, we do need to get on that. So, I wish I was the type of person who could make herself write a book, because I always have ideas for them, but I don't think I could ever sit down and write a book. See, you can, but I have no work ethic. I resent you for that. I have all these little traits and things that I would like to make characters have, but I couldn't ever create a whole character, so a whole book seems absurd. Same with a lot of things with me. Like my room. I'd like to completely redo my room and have things hanging from the ceiling and make curtains, so on and so forth. Oh, or I'll want to design clothes, but not do the work of actually sewing them together. So I always have things going that I can't finish. Books, clothes, letters, songs, paintings, anything. I'm lazy. And people try to convince me that I am not. But, I really, really am. I know myself better than anyone and I am a flat out lazy bum. I want a baby. Because I would do anything for them, even if I was too tired. Because, my goal is to make them happy. And that's how I can tell I was meant to be a mother. And now, I am out of things to say...
So, this is Elle Benny signing off at 11:27, telling all that sometimes you just need to get up and dance. |
Hello, Laura my dear.
Wow. I thought I was doing good on the musicals...that's a lot that I haven't seen.
Which one should we watch next? (I'm definitely looking forward to seeing Victor Garber dance :) )
Haha...You do have lots of little quirks that make good book characters. I know, because I steal them. I base lots of characters on you. Or at least some aspect of you. Sorry. You're just too interesting not to.
But anyway, I'm too lazy to write a book too, honestly. I've started several, but I just get bored with them or say, "I'll write some other time." And I never get anything done that way. I get quite depressed about it, sometimes.
I'll not try to convince you that you're not lazy. I don't think you're as lazy as me, however. So, maybe that's cheering.
You're most definitely, without a doubt, certainly, going to be just about the most excellent mommy ever. It's very obvious. Besides the apparent love of little kids, you're also insanely great at reading out loud, and that's a necessary skill. I would go on about your motherly qualities, but, I think you already know them. Tell me if you'd like me to list 'em sometime.
Please explain the last line to me, cause I'm ignorant.
