No More Fire Charred Earrings
This summer has filled with owls and arguments. Oh and books and dust of course, but my summers are always filled with those. Mum and I haven't worked out a reasonable schedule for Iris. I mean, I understand that Iris is technically the property of Mum and Dad, but one can only stick their head in a fire for a certain amount of time. I think I singed my favorite pair of earrings last week. Prolonged exposure isn't good; at least I don't think it is. Besides, who wants to tend a fire in the middle of summer?

Mum, Dad and I discussed the other available options last week. The most popular alternative was for me to get an owl of my own. While I'm sure an owl of my own might come in handy, they can be, um, messy creatures. After all the dust and grime I've helped to scourge from the library this summer, I believe I have had my fill of cleaning things up.

Fortunately, I received the most wonderful package today. Well, actually Mum and Dad received the package, but the contents were for me. Provided that I take great care of it, I now have a lamptop. It seems that Mum's Great Edna's grandson's girlfriend Alice works in a shop that repairs and sells lamptops. I've spent the last few hours getting it all hooked up and properly connected to the journaling project. But it looks like everything is working just fine so far.
