I haven't said it before but thanks to everyone who's been leaving comments on all my blog entries!!! And special thanks to Tai and Willy for asking me to apologize to Jay Appleton and make everything better between us. You guys are so sweet!!!
The thing is, Jay was avoiding me way before that whole thing with the pie, and now he's so distant I couldn't apologize even if I tried!!! Besides, I was only rude to him once, while he's been rude to me every single day since we met. He owes me an apology too!!! He's got to meet me halfway at least. If he comes to my shed, I'll apologize for eating his pie and belching in his face, but I'm not going to go crawling over to him first!!!
Also thanks to Willy for asking about how my cows are doing, now that I've moved into my new shed. I still have to pasture the cows and milk them twice a day, and yesterday I washed them all in the creek cuz it was Tuesday. My new shed is close enough to our farm that I can go back and forth as much as I need, thank goodness!!!
And thanks to everyone for your book and movie suggestions!!! I've still never been to a theater. If I fit at all, I'd have to sit waaaaaaay in the back to keep from blocking other people's view. But that Forest Gump movie sure sounds like something I'd like to see!!!
Illustrator Challenge
Artists can create illustrations of me or the events in my life, as long as they are appropriate for my young readers. Any previous post on this blog can be illustrated. If I like an image that goes well with a post on the blog, I may add a small thumbnail version along with credit to the artist and a link to the full-sized image. Images of me posted elsewhere should link back to the "Giant Girl Rampages" blog.
If you want to draw a picture of me, here's what you need to know:
I'm 15 years old and almost (but not quite) 18 feet tall. Mrs. Appleton says I'm very pretty and well proportioned, which I guess is a complement. I'm not super thin or anything but I think I'm in pretty good shape.
I have dirty blonde hair that's kind of wild because I trim it with Pa's old hedge trimmers. My eyes are green as the ocean, as Ma always said, but I wouldn't know because I've never seen an ocean. My skin is tanned from being out in the sun a lot but not too dark and (usually) not burned.
I wear a blouse and skirt-shorts that my mother quilted for me three years ago. They look like a big patchwork cuz she used many squares of fabric and cowhide. I've grown since then, so the skirt-shorts no longer come down to my knees, my blouse is way tight, and there's a bit of skin showing in between. I don't have any shoes (and that makes me sad to think about so I usually don't).
If you do draw my picture, send the link in a comment so I can post it to my blog. Thanks!!!
