Breaking Dawn

SO, I just thought of this;

If Jacob hadn't imprinted on Renesme he would have killed her. The the Vamps would have waisted no time killing him. Then the wolves would have come after the vamps. There would be all out war between them and no reason for the Volturi to come unless Edward and Alice survived. Edward would have let them kill him becase Bella couldn't have survived. And who know what would have happened to Alice and Jasper.

Jacob had to imprint on her or the story would have been desimated.

One day long long ago last week a very keen and sharp witted woman sat criticizing the most famous colored man in the land to her mother when there was a knock at the door. Tired of the agonizing potential for the future, she said farewell and answered the other line.

"Hola!" She exclaimed to the mysterious caller.

"Hello" Said a woman who possessed dry nasally voice with a New York accent. "Is Jeremy available?"

"No he works during the day. Can I help you?"

"Is Jade McClenan available?" replied the old smoker standing over her cane.

"Yes"

"May I talk to her?"

The woman adorned in unusually bright colors said "This is she." While she wondered why people are so slow to catch on, especially around noon. Kids are usually with their tutors while most everyone else works. This odd sounding lady must be simply be slow.

"Oh! Good morn Jade!" For some reason the scraggly haired caller was surprised. Okay, so she wasn't slow per se. Thought the quick thinking girl. Her master who forced her to call at this time is slow and she's just dumb for asking for the employed person in the house.

"Hi."

"I am Annie from the Farm of State. The Earl in Arizona was doing his usual DHC checks and bid me to find why your license is suspended."

"What?" Am I slow? Did she just say my license is suspended? For how long has it been suspended? What did I do? No, she must be retarded and accidentally pulled out our file. She came all this way by accident. Thought the dark haired lady.

"We want to know why your license is suspended."

"I have no idea. What does it say on the record your Earl pulled?" asked Jade. All the while knowing this job was much too minuscule for an Earl.

"Oh, they don't have the details." explained the high pitched gravelly voice.

"Well, I don't know. To the best of my knowledge there's no reason it should be."

"It is. Would you please find out why." Asked the voice Jade was certain was really a witch sent by the colored man who thinks he could be a good King. She made this happen to my her day. Nobody really sounds like that. Besides she's too old to be called Annie. She must do that to distract the listener from her voice and make them believe she is a maid.

"Sure. How?"

"I don't know. Call on the DHC. When you figure it out send me the information please."

"OK. I'll do what I can."

Jade shut the door and grabbed her cloak and hood while she asked her mother to take her to call on the DHC as she was asked. The wait for an associate was surprisingly short. Just 7 minutes. It really must have been some sort of record.

"Department of Horse and Carriages, Licensing Division" Said the soothing mezzo-soprano on the other end of the handsomely adorned mahogany counter.

Who ever hired her was smart! Her voice automatically calms a person taking their attention away from this waste of taxes definitely approved by the Heir of Read. Decided sleuth like detective . "Good afternoon, I wanted to know why my license has been suspended."

The round face gave her a sympathetic look before asking for her license number. After giving the curly haired matron the information required. Jade settled in for a long wait. It wasn't necessary. The curly hired woman was back in very little time.

"I'm sorry to inform you that you will have to seek audience with the Viscountess of Records to obtain the information you seek. I shall escort you promptly."

Jade just nodded to the woman in the Viscountess' employ.

When they arrived at the door of the Viscountess one of her Lady's in Waiting met them explaining the Viscountess of records was ill and to seek her sister the Baroness of Records. The kindly woman was again directed to escort the young mother.

Apparently, whatever happened to warrant such action is so serious that only top level authorities have access to the information. This is a horrible sign. I will surely be condemned. Speculated the worried Lady.

They arrived at the Baroness' residence. While awaiting an audience Jade bade her servant to inquire at Parliament of any wrong doing that may be on record. [Okay, I know I just randomly made her a Lady so she can have a servant, but I don't feel like editing this much more, so Jade is now a Lady with a servant. Possibly several.] Before they entered the Baroness' chambers the servant returned reporting that there was nothing recent on record. The latest was two years past: riding an un-branded horse.

A Lady of the Baroness invited Jade to come to her chamber. [is her the antecedent of Lady or Baroness? Either way it's meant to be Baroness.] Jade made a deep curtsy fearing the stocks for the mysterious crime.

"Please sit." Invited the Baroness.

[sorry to do this, but I gotta go the baby's crying]

Jerm's Birthday

Today was Jerm's birthday. The stupid jerk didn't want a party. How is that possible???? How do you have a birthday w/o a party. We didn't have one and he says it was a great birthday.

What's wrong with that retard? Pecan pie and Dave's Famous BBQ does not count! You know what he wanted?????? Money to fund his hobby car. Yeah, that's right he now has a hobby car. At least that'll distract him from Final Fantasy (Not football... you know who you are.).

He needs some reformation. Birthdays are great because they let the rest of s show you how special you are. That's why you have a party. Not for presents or stuff. A pick me up. That's why we celebrate birthdays to remind you you're especialae. Dumb guy doesn't even know now.

<> ~ a type of sigh

So, guess what?!

I just figured out that people can leave comments! Wahoo! Good for me! People really do read this! Weirdos. It's just me! Does that mean I have to put imprtant stuff on here. Great, that's gonna suck! Too bad! I'm just putting what I want on here anyway!

My kidlets

I have the best kids in the world. There are alot of contenders, but no one comes close. Sorry guys. I just can't lie, it's against my religion.

Rosie is very considerate of the people she loves. She's always willing to share anything with Jac. She may not cuddle on my schedule, but she cuddles all the time. Random kisses on the cheek are super common. Don't be fooled by all of this because she's her mother's daughter and very feisty as well. If you're doing something wrong she'll let you know. If you don't follow the rules she'll let me know. And, if you really piss her off she's willing to do the time in order to deck you. She's also royally stubborn. Thank goodness! All we have to do is get her a testimony... I hope. LOL! If only it were so easy.

Then there's Jac. He's already a man's man. 15 lbs and in 9 month clothes he's huge for his age and super duper strong! He lifts the back of his body all the way up in the air balancing on his breast bone. He rolled from his back to his belly when he was like a week old and held his head up from the beginning. He's sooo smiley! He's a generally happy boy who adores his big sister! He can't get enough of her. If I'm paying bills he needs a "bill" too. The same with books, blocks, and other things. He's pushing himself forward with his legs, but all he wants to do is walk. The fact that he can't really makes him mad. And he's a blabber mouth. He love to just sit and talk to anyone who will listen.

Today Rosie was in the tub using her telescope. Yesterday she mad a triangle out of some greeting card like things and was very proud of herself. Yeah that thought was random, but I'm bragging! I can do what I want.

School

School starts Oct 28th! I have about 2 years and 10 months left. I lost a ton of credits in the transfer of schools and change of major, but there's a light at the end of the tunnel. There's also no way I could go more than once a week. With five weeks per class, it's like summer school. I was always way better at summer school anyway. There's not enough time to get board or wanna ditch. This time there's nothing out of pocket. Phewww!

With "daycare" (otherwise known as watching my friends kids), weight watchers, dance classes (@ the gym), school, and church (which is going to become more regular) I'm busy busy. Yay! I LOVE being busy!

Fear not my family is not being neglected. I've been able to make one on one time for everyone daily! I really thrive when there's lots to do that doesn't involve cleaning. I don't sleep so much so homework will get done after everyone goes to bed. Jerm's usually in bed around 8. That gives me till like 12:30 to do homework and catch up on celebrity gossip.

I'm so excited and so is Jerm! Which caught me off guard. He was worried about nursing because of the schedual. Honestly, who can blame him. But, he's very very enthusiastic about education. It's really the right thing for us. It always feels good to his a home run with Heavenly Father as far as the whole revolation thing is concerned.

Random Ramblings

So, I pretty much figure Heavenly Father likes me and He's satisfied with the progress I've made and am making. Not only me, but my entire family. However, I have noticed going to church is getting harder for us, because interacting with people there is hard. We are PEOPLE PEOPLE. It's absolutely ridiculous that saying "Hi" makes us feel awkward! I don't even really know these people, and frankly I really don't care what they think. I just prefer not to put myself in an environment where I feel unwanted. Which means I care a little even if I don't actually feel it or understand.

Our ward is like Romeo and we Juliet. They're on the prosperous side of the spectrum. We're to the left of poor (really, really poor). They're mainly educated. We're mainly... not.They're stable. We're trying to get it together. All opposites. Makes for a fiery love story, but a horrible friendship.

The weird thing is; we genuinely like the people we've gotten to know and everyone we've talked to seems to agree with us. We all think everyone is pretending to not judge us. Weird huh?

Personally, I've never fit in at an LDS Church. But, it was okay with me in the singles ward because I really didn't care. Family ward is different. Maybe it was that time there was some problem in my Sunday school class and everyone knew except for me. Nobody felt like telling me til the shit hit the fan. Daddy (that's what we'll call him) apologized for yelling at me and I really appreciate it. But maybe I could have fixed it if someone (the parents, Primary President, or the Bishop, who all knew) had told me. I've been yelled at my whole life. The yelling really didn't bug me so much. Maybe it was the day at play group where Mommy Mormon kept her kid from playing with my little girl who got her feelings hurt so badly that day she cried about it later that evening. She was only a year and something and couldn't stop thinking about it. We don't go to play group anymore. And, maybe I'm the worst because I'm playing this stupid game instead of demanding the apologies my family deserves like I normally would. Besides if these people don't know they've done anything they deserve to. If they don't know they would then, and we could prevent it later.

I don't do it because people don't respond well to confrontation. Even kindly gentle confrontation. Nobody taught them how to handle pure honesty. They get defensive when you talk about how you feel and why. Really when you're offended by someone it's not so much about them. It's you and your coping strategy and doing everything within your power to forgive them. Even if it was you who was actually in the wrong. How do you know if social codes build a barrier your too chicken to break? Talking about the issue is how yo get your reality check.

This is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo dumb! But, I don't feel like it's okay to talk about. Woe is me!

Breaking Dawn

As a responsible reader I'm putting up a spoiler alert so there.

ANYHOW... I loved it. Despite there being no bloodshed I loved it. I was entertained the the whole book. The only criticism I agreed with was that the "My brother, my son" line was to cheesy to put into words. Oh! And Alice, I missed Alice.

I adore these characters and I believe they do have depth and are complex. I was surprised to find people thinking otherwise. It's hard for me to explain myself because I honestly cannot see the other side. I'd be happy to participate in lighthearted banter with someone who disagrees. Maybe I'd understand better that way than reading their thoughts.

Bella loving Edward and vice versa has been a real question for people too. They must have never ever seen an action movie in their life. Vin Deisel looks like a monkey, but he's a sexy hero so we love him. Moving on... Have you never felt that pull toward another person? The books illustrated it well. After they acknowledged it and began sharing their secrets those ties became even stronger. Throw in some teenage angst and learning to trust another implicitly with a dash of noble life saving on both their parts. How could one not fall for the other?? And that's just the first book. By book three there should be no doubt why they're in love. Go read book one again.

Did I want blood? Yes, I desperately wanted someone to die. Aro maybe? Jane for sure! I'm not the biggest fan of Peter and Charlotte, Tanya bugs me. Personally I think the Cullen Family couldn't have lost they have too many advantages against the Volturi. But honestly, it was brilliant to have them conclude with out bloodshed. No one expected it. I wasn't disappointed.

I missed Alice. Besides my girl crush on her she (and Emmit) give the series more humor. There were times when it got pretty dark and Jacob was not helping lighten thing up this time.

Oh yeah! Team Jacob you lose suck it up! Be a man! With that said, how can anyone think that was dumb!?!? Of course they'd be drawn to one another! There was a piece of her waiting for him. And he was obviously hanging around for some reason why couldn't the part of her meant for him (otherwise known as the egg) be it? Especially in fiction.

That's another thing. "Rules of the universe she created". Huh? First of all fiction has no rules. Second of all I never heard her say a male vampire couldn't father a child in the books or out. Did you?? Nor did I hear her say that shape shifters couldn't imprint on any sort of creature. Maybe you would have learned this when she tried to prepare us using Quil and Claire... Duh!!! Hello! She was saying right there; declaring it for all to see: There are no rules!

Bella's newborn phase. I get it now after reading the Midnight Sun manuscript. Bella could resist because there's absolutely no bad in her. (Just like Carlisle) You don't get it from Bella's perspective because she's so self deprecating. There's no way she'd ever hurt a person. It has never been in her character. Everyone'd understand this better later when Midnight Sun was released, but since it won't be anymore go to Stephanie Meyers website and read up. it's only 260 something pages and you already know what happens so it'll be fast.

It's okay that there's a perfectly happy ending. It's okay that Bella got everything she ever wanted. Now that I know her better I think she deserved it. There's enough tragedy in reality that the book didn't need any.

PS If I think of more I'll add it.
