We went to see the Avengers yesterday, and it was really cool! I'm not the comic book geek of our family (that's my older brother) but I really enjoyed it. The stuff he told me about who they were, and what they did, and all the stuff you only really know from comic books, was interesting, and may have even made it a more enjoyable experience.
I can hear my sister singing from our bedroom. She just got new headphones, and is using them to the full. My little brother described it as "falling asleep in music". She can't hear anything you say, and doesn't want to either. He's trying to get her to play a game with him, but she isn't listening. I'm going to go help him out.

February 12
My little brother has been playing a platform game at my computer, and left the annoying music running. Even worse, I can't find a mute button!
Our new pastor was inducted today. There was a big lunch to celebrate, and it was delicious. He seems like a fun guy, but not a mushroom.
I can't really think of what else happened today, except that I read a lot of comic books, of all kinds. I got my brother interested in some Tintin comics, because we've seen the movie, and he wants to compare. It's funny and frustrating when he insists on saying that the comic, which was written way before the movie came out, is actually the one that has misrepresented the story! He's unbelievable. He knows which came first, but refuses to admit it.
Comics are so cool. In some of them, but usually more the TV show kind than the book kind, you could fall off of a building, and come away with nothing more than a black eye, and some bandages! It's even cooler when cartoon characters know that they are cartoons, and act accordingly. I mean that they do stupid stuff, and show off about how impossible it is.

It is so hot!!! Some of you will probably be in the middle of Winter right now, but here in Australia it is really hot. Where I am, near Brisbane, it is 30 degrees Celsius. In Brisbane itself, there is a high of 32. We've got lots of fans on, cold water in the fridge, but it is still so hot!
Is your opinion of holidays that it is a good time to
A. Have fun?
B. Relax?
C. Get ready for the next school year?
D. Do housework for at least 2-3 hours a day?
I reckon, definitely B, though I know that some housework is necessary.
I got a collection of Peanuts comics from the library today, and it's kind of funny. Not a very modern comic, but still entertaining.
Could you comment on what the weather is like where you are? Obviously, it's hot here, but what's it like where you are from, and where is that? I hope that it's not as hot as here.
It's lunchtime here, so I gotta go. Sausages for lunch, cooked on the BBQ.

My blog is now up to 4 followers, and I'm really excited! Thanks so much to RayRay G and Elizabeth, who choose to follow my blog. I'm really happy about that.
My little brother is bored. He gets like that on holidays. He doesn't have a computer, doesn't read comics (weird), doesn't like reading, and doesn't know what else he can do by himself. Neither do I. I have a computer, I read comics, and I love to read. I don't usually need anything else to do.
My mother had guests around this morning, and they talked for ages at our dining room table. I spent the time with my sister in the room we share, uploading songs to my iPod. I haven't done it for ages, so I have a whole lot of songs my dad left on their when he gave this computer to me, as well as an assortment of songs I've loaded on.
Have youe verc onsi dere dhow hard itis tore adan ythi ngwh enyo uput itli keth is?
(Have you considered how hard it is to read anything when you put it like this?)
It's funny how easy it is to change an intelligible sentence into utter nonsense. In the sentence above, I just split everything up into 4 letter sections. It's easy to do, but hard to read. If you changed every letter to the one after it in the alphabet, it would also be easy to do, but hard to read.
But, you can actually read anything as long as the first and last letters are in position. Think of a sentence, and scramble it like that. Is it hard to read? or about the same? If you do it right, it should be the same, or maybe a little harder.

I'm at home with just my brother right now. My younger brother, my sister and mother have gone to the shops to buy an electric barbeque. They'll be back soon.
While they are out, my brother and I have been listening to Hawk Nelson. We both really love their music. It's loud and Totally Awesome! Friend Like That is one of their songs.
My brother is reading comic books, the rest are at the shops, and I'm on the Net. It's unusually quiet around here. Normally, having five people in the same house, one of whom is compulsively loud, and another who is a bit of a dramatic, usually makes for a loud environment. I'm kind of enjoying the change, even though it won't be for long.
Holidays sometimes seem like they don't follow the laws of time, don't they? Somehow they seem to be really long and really short at the same time. New Years seems ages ago, but this week seems to have passed really fast, even though New Years was on Sunday, and that seems ages ago. It's weird.

As the Tintin movie is coming out soon, and looked interesting, I thought I'd try reading one of the comic books, and it's really good! I've never read Tintin before, but it is actually really funny.
I saw a scary sign at the shopping centre today. It said (with spooky background music) '11 days until Christmas'! AAAAAAAHHH! Who let Christmas come and sneak up on us like that? Surely it shouldn't be allowed.
Tonight my family and I are going to go looking at Christmas lights. Not as many people have got their lights up as last year. I'm considering door knocking, and interrogating them on why they don't have Christmas lights up, except we haven't got ours up yet! Last year some of the Christmas displays around here were amazing, especially the one just a few houses up. That was truly spectacular, but it hasn't been put up yet. Hopefully it will be a bit later.
