It's...

GAME WEEK, BABY!! We have a game on Friday, and I am so siked!!! I am also really excited because I will be starting my first varsity game. Man, I can't wait. You can tell when it's game week in practices; there is a bunch of hooting and hollaring and the intensity goes up BIG time. I love it. ;-)

So, besides that, life is going pretty good. The truck is out of the shop, and dad was satisfied with the repair (which means they did a really good job.) I will have it paid off by the end of the month, so that is good. I have my bases covered, and that is important. ;-) Besides that, all I am doing is working (and football practice), and I am trying to find time to answer Katie Beth's e-mail. I thought Faith's were long...oh my gosh. It makes Faith's e-mails look like postcards. I swear it needs freakin' chapters, lol. So, KB, just to warn you, it might be a while before you get a nice, long responce, heh.

So yeah, just plodding along, dreading the start of school with my entire being. Yeah. It's August. It's life.

I hope it goes well! GO PRIDE!!

ROFL. I'm sorry, Ethan... :-D I usually try to keep them short for the guys, but that one kinda got away from me. That's what happens when you ask questions. :-D Next time I'll put chapters in... "Chapter 1. In which KB replies to Ethan's first paragraph." "Chapter 2: In which KB replies to Ethan's second paragraph." "Chapter 3: In which KB inserts her own random third paragraph." "Chapter 4: In which KB replies to Ethan's third paragraph." "Chapter 5: In which KB completely throws off all restraints and goes galloping wildly away in the foggy world of cybermail." *signature here* "Epilogue."

That would another entire paragraph length. :-P

LOL! about KB's e-mail. That's awesome. Writing books is fun and it seems to me that girls especially love to write them. =)

Yay for your season starting! (Oooh...and now I'm going to be the spelling police; you mean that you're "psyched." Haha...) Go Pride! (I feel special that I signed your beloved Pride hat. =P)

Don't dread school with your entire being, Ethan. Schola starts then! And learning is good. School is good. (Of course, then, so are breaks. Lol.)

Juliet SN said...

LOL about Katie Beth's emails! Writing long emails are always fun to do, and KB is especially adept at 'em. :-D

Hurrah for your season starting! :) It sounds like you're very excited. (Heh, I sense an understatement there...)

And ditto to Shannon! Don't dread school with all your entire being! I'm looking forward to it with my entire being, lol. Just think, Schola. *grins*

ETHAN J. BRANDT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (:P)

I love football!!!!!!!!!!

(or something...)

*stabs herself*

Ethan B. said...

Oh my gosh, someone, please get this on camera...

I am so copying that comment, pasting it in a word document, put it in a pretty font, printing it, and framing it, and then I will hang it over my bed and set it right next to my football gloves.

I love football too, Shannon!!!!!!!

(Talk about a turnaround. See, Andrew, what leaving your sister does to her? She needs that older brother influence to...um...yeah.)

Shannon said...

maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan. i don't know what's wrong with me. i'm going insane. but lol about printing it out and hanging it over your bed. i would be honored. but ethan, football gloves? you keep football gloves in your room? ;-) you totally should do that, though. i would laugh. harder than i'm laughing now.

i think you're onto something about the older brother leaving, though. for real. NOT that it's his influence only that makes me love love love baseball. it's just his leaving that's put me in quite an odd (and rather up and down) mood. *sigh* on top of that, the hairdresser butchered my hair. does it get any worse than that? (i think i'm going to go live in a cave for a few weeks until it grows out some. haha!)

Katie Beth said...

No, Shannon, just come see me!! I need some encouragement around here... *kicks something*

Shannon said...

oh, KB! i want so much to go visit you. it would be such a blast. =) we're at the valle's right now...having a blast, of course.

eth: manuel's younger brother tonight asked me: "shannon, do you and eth brandt have some kind of rivalry?" me: "haha! that's awesome! yeah. we kind of did, although ever since i met him, it's kinda toned down a bit." ;-) it was HILARIOUS! man, you're the best eth. i want to see you again soon. =)

Ethan B. said...

LOL! That's awesome! It's not a rivalry, maybe more like playful banter??? Anyway... Thats great. And yeah, I can't wait to see you again either. Man, I wish everyone was closer! The Groovers are the closest Scholars to me, but NO ONE wants to visit the GROOVERS...

;-)

Katie Beth said...

Yeah, we never have ANY visitors. :-P

You're at the Valle's?? Man, that's awesome. Tell everyone hey for me! :-D

Manuel said...

Hey, Eth!
Good luck in the game tomorrow! Hit people hard!! (or whatever you say before a game).

KB and Eth, you guy should have been here! :( The Odells only stayed for about 14 hours *sniff* but we had a great time! For example, they met HARRY! ;)

*is going to go take a nap in his empty downstairs*

Katie Beth said...

I wanna meet Harry!!! Hi Harry!!!

Juliet SN said...

"I wish everyone was closer!"


I heartily echo that :-D

Shannon said...

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARY!

Yeah, he's great. I love that dog. =)

Eth...playful banter. Yeah, that sounds like a good description. I think. ;-) Tomas said: "You two are hilarious." Apparently he's read every "argument" we've ever had. =)

Have a *great* game tomorrow. I can't wait to read all about it. Run into someone really hard for me. ;-)

(I WILL write you soon...we're in Niagra Falls now so maybe I'll have a good chunk of time.)

Katie Beth said...

Good luck on the game today!

Juliet SN said...

Hope your game goes well today, Eth! :)

Shannon said...

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PRIDE!

=)

Katie Beth said...

Ethan, I just think you should know, I sent Shannon an email last night that was about three times as long as yours. ;-)

Shannon said...

kb's e-mail, eth, is *incredible.* and it has chapters! i died when i opened it. =)

hope the game went well last night!

Shannon said...

one more thing about kb's e-mail, eth. as she told me, you should feel lucky yours wasn't as long as the one she sent me. i just copied it into a word document. i took up eight pages and consisted of 4,866 words. it was *awesome* in every sense of the word. =)

Katie Beth said...

EIGHT PAGES??? O_O

Ethan B. said...

Y'all are crazy...

And Shannon, your e-mail was bigger then KB's. I don't know WHEN I will answer it, but yeah. Just be patient. ;-)
