Yesterday...

I went to a baseball game with a bunch of people. It was fun, we lost, the wave went around 5-6 times IN A ROW, we stayed up till 1:45, we went to In-N-Out TWICE, MAHSed all of the girls(Wren got SH, I got PJ, Anna got Dr. W, Josie got Khan and Abbitha got Marivs), made an instant short story for Wren on the car ride there(she told me to make it sad. I thought she cried but she said she didn't. SO. CLOSE!!!!), and I woke up extra late today. Mom said we get the day off because we stayed up so late( >:) ) so I'm just sitting here at the computer waiting for everything to load because the internet is slow.

Here's the story that I wrote:

~*~

"Greta, no! Please, stop-!" I spun around to face the tall figure in the grey colored shirt. Despite the snow that lay on the ground in pure white layers he hadn't bothered to put on his usual black trench coat and blue scarf.
Maybe he had forgotten it in his haste to get to me. He is changing, that's for sure; he's more human now.
But is more human better for him?
"Stop it! Just stop! I'm sick and tired of being second best. Your married to your work! I loved you, and after John died I thought that you might even have loved me back... but then you went off and left without an explanation. I had thought that you liked me enough to at least say 'Sorry, I need to go' or 'Gotta go' but noooo! You were in such a rush to get back to your precious work and away from me that you didn't even notice when your chair tipped over in the restaurant and left me to explain some that I couldn't. You didn't even notice that I wasn't there with you. You didn't wait. You didn't do anything."
"B-"
"NO. It's over. Goodbye, Sherlock. I'll leave you to your work."
I turned my back to the man that I had once loved... maybe I still did.
I gasped as I felt a warm hand on my arm and whip me around to look at him.
He didn't say anything at first. Just looked at me with his piercing blue eyes. Sherlock's high cheek bones threw shadows on his face from the half moon. He wasn't used to emotions yet so they showed plainly on his face were his obvious sadness was plainly, deeply etched. Pale blue eyes gave away his love and, stranger than the last, fear.
My heart made me want to believe that he was afraid of loosing me too. Just like dear old John. I was is life saver when it happened, when the assassin snuck into their apartment and murdered the faithful friend. Sherlock almost drowned in sorrow then. He didn't know how to control his feelings. He took on more, and more cases until he was worn to the bone. Maybe he was afraid of going through that again, or maybe he was honestly afraid of loosing another friend.
My head was screaming at me No!! He thinks it's a game. He doesn't really care. He's the same man who you first met at the bookshop. Your a fool to fall for him in the first place.
But that first time that we met had been so perfect, so magical.
We were both looking in the murder mystery section at a bookstore, on different isles.
I had felt eyes on me so I looked up over the shelf to lock eyes with a pair of blue ones. Curly black hair bounced slightly as he walked over to me, eyes never blinking or leaving mine.
Finally he stood in front of me. He just looked for a few seconds, hands in his pockets, black color up, blue scarf around his neck. Then he said-
"Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"
Sherlock reached up and wiped my cheek with a warm, rough hand. I felt my face; tears.
Huh. I hadn't even noticed. But now that I realized it all just came pouring out. I sobbed and immediately Sherlock hugged me and I was crying into his shoulder. I just rapped my arms around him and cried till my head hurt and then some.
Soon his shirt was soaked but I couldn't stop. He didn't complain  though. He just held me tight, and stroked my hair.
We stood there in each other's arms until the sky began to lighten.
Then I felt something in my hair. It was wet, but there were no clouds in the sky.
It was a tear.

~*~

So that's it, the modified version. You should be thankful. The first one was worse than this. 

That's my two cents for today. I think I'm going to start posting old stuff that I haven't shared yet... WARNING. lol FANGIRL TIME THE HOUSE OF HADES IS COMING OUT IN FOURTEEN DAYS IT'S GOING TO BE MANY HAPPINESS AND FUN TIMES AND ITS SIX HUNDRED AND SOMETHING PAGES LONG SO IT'S VERY HAPPY YES YES PRECIOUS IT IS!!!

The Mentalist

SOOOOOO.... Mumihilario and I went to drop Dumbelina(brother) at track and Mumihilario and I went to get shakes and we saw the Three Furies(no joke. Hair, outfit, oddness... the whole deal). And I saw a lisense plate that said Mesege 4U. That was kinda neat... yepididoda, dee day!!!

That is all. *bows* I'M AM MENTAL!!! You may call the Mentalist.

I HAD AN IDEA!!!!!!!! >:D

We aren't doing the second performance because Abby and Mary figured that, the first time we did great, but the second time we couldn't do any better so we'll have to end it like, "Dang it! We didn't do so well..." and it would be a big disappointment.
Oh well!!! ;)

Today I figured out a bunch of stuff with my writing coach, so now I'm going to send her EVERYTHING and not just the stories that we've been working on, so I'm happy about that. And when we were going back home we stopped by Jersey Mike's and got some subs while my brother taught me what I didn't know how to do on the Rubix Cube which was EIPC.
And I had this Idea of Atlantis... I haven't typed it up yet, but basically every hundred years the island of Atlantis bears a powerful King who puts all wrong things to rights until the next Great King.
But this time Kings from other parts of the earth have gotten jealous. Atlantians have everything; magic, money, power, fame... so everyone want's to kidnap the next Great King and raise him so that they could have a firmer reign.
Eastern Wizards of Atlantis sent everyone who wasn't from Atlantis off the island-with a certain few of their own disguised among them-put a spell on the city, creating a low bubble of air, summoned a tsunami and sank the island to make the world believe that they are dead and so no one could use the child king's power for evil.
But while in the water, the wizards sent the underwater city forward fifty years in time.
The Atlantians who stayed on land waited for the return of their homeland, but it never came. So year after year, generation after generation, they told the story of Atlantis and passed it on from child to child, and told them to watch for it.
But it never came. Most believe that it was just a story, but some watched for it. When parents told the story to they're kids, they would always play, 'Look For Atlantis' or some such.
So now, centuries later, Atlantis returns.
>:)
And a bunch of random, strangely dressed people are walking calmly from the sea and 'normal' people are screaming "THE APOCALYPSE!!!!! THE APOCALYPSE!!!!!" and... yeah. :)

So that's what's been going on... OH!!!!! And I'm helping to organize a dance, and it's going to be awesome and I just started two new stories and they are both going greatly and blah blah blah, hoodlydumph!!! :D

That is all. *bows/swings red and black cape out on arm* *straightens up/whips cape over self in a mysterious fashion* *disappears* *evil laugh resinating around the room*  *room explodes into firey flames and smoke*
>:) Di is going to die. Maybe Dürion will too... WE SHALL SEE!!!!
O_o
Just realized that I'm still talking after all of that epic going-going-gone stuff. *sinks deeper into chair* Oopsies!!!!
Weeeeeeell...
-_-
Talk to ya'll later then...
Bye...

PS, when I do this: >:) it counts as my evil hand thing. This: >:D is not my evil hand thing. This: >:D is my evil jump-up-and-down-yay-everyone's-going-to-die evil face thing.

PPS, yes, I didn't notice that I put two 'evil's there. >:) The more the merrier!!!!! :D

The Ernest Troupe of Wilde Actors

EPIC!!!! Oh my gosh!!! This is awesome!!!!!!!!

Okay, so last night we, the Ernest Troupe of Wilde Actors, put in the Importance of Being Ernest by Orson Wilde.
It was amazing.
As Miss Prism, Abby and Mary(our directors) I was flirtatious, flighty, oblivious, and talk on a really high voice, which took a while to get down.
I had a fan and a pair of reading glasses, which I was VERY thankful for because when Rev. Chasuble said, "If I was fortunate enough to be Miss Prism's pupil, I would hang upon her lips." Cecily and i snapped our heads up so hard and Chasuble was so clueless, that the crowd laughed for fifteen seconds straight and I had to cover my hand with my fan because I couldn't stop smiling and I was supposed to be shocked.
People were laughing every other line, which is good, because they were funny and said perfectly it was hilarious.
I missed one line that I had been having trouble with all summer.
"People who live entirely for pleasure usually are."
But it totally rocked and at the end all of the girls got flowers and, since it was the first time in seven years that I had been a girl, had forgotten the fact and was pleasantly surprised. :)
Not only that, but afterward a bunch of friends-good friends that u had known for years-came up and said that they hadn't recognized me until someone nearby had asked? "Wait. Is that Mercy?" which was awesome because I love it when that happens.
The last time that no one had recognized me was... two years ago? In Two Gentleman if Verona where I was a Turkish outlaw with the rainbow Turban and the baggy pants and the bowing and the Go-T and mustache... yeah, it was epic. I live having beards.
Not hair beards though. Those I can't say lines around. The ones with the burnt cork? Yep, those are my kind of beard. ;)
Abby slipped on some water and hurt her ankle give minutes before we started so she couldn't give the speech that, as the main director, she was going to give. She's going to live, she has crutches, and we started a bit late, but it's all pretty much good.
In the middle of the second act the lights went and they couldn't get them back on so we paused the scene and when they came back on everyone cheered and they all kept going.
And the performance STILL rocked.
Today Abby and Mary have all been getting emails about how it was the best backyard performance that they had seen, and that the actors where spectacular and how Lady Bracknell, played by Zoë, was SO unlike her, who was mild and calm it was just amazing and Chasuble was hilarious and Cecily was so cute and funny and Gwendolyn was funny not only because she was well acted, but because she was totally type-casted. Jack was endearing and Algy was just WOW. Even the butlers, Lane and Merriman were comedy!!
One of the emails that Mary got was an offer to host an extra performance at their house on Saturday.
And several people said that ours was the best Importance if Being Ernest that they had ever seen(including the school's play and both movies). :D
So yeah.
Like I said.
EPIC.
And my grandma and grandpa came in from Seirra Vista AZ, and gran came out for the first scene and a half, and my grandpa made it down from Ojai. AND my Auntie Kate from LA, which is four hours away from our house, so that was nice.
I had something else to say... but I can't, remember! *places fist on forehead*
More kudos.

So yeah, that's my night, and hopefully we'll be able to have another performance. I'll let you know!!!!
