Grrrr!! My other catch-up post was deleted! :(( And I was almost done too!

Btw,if you guys could check this out,I'd realy appreciate it. :)

Alrighty,lets try this again... :p

@NN: It's in Charlottesville,VA.
Ah,I see. I still do that out of an old habit though.

@Dani: You sound like me. :P
I actually haven't heard that song,but the new single I was talking about is called "Healing Begins". You can listen to it on their site. Here's a link:http://www.tenthavenuenorth.com/vloumes/post/1053/7
I've already pre-ordered the Cd. :P I can't wait either! :D
Aw,I'm sorry. :( Knowing Latin still sounds neat though. :)

@Ali: LOL! :P
We had some rain last night,but thankfully not a storm. But I love the rain. :)
It's "Lothlorien". Not "Lotholorien". ;)) lol
Btw,I finally bought "Five Score"! :D Oh,it sooo good. So now I have the last three RK albums. I'm halfway to complteting my collection. :P

@PrinceCor: For some reason I can't see you working for PlugedIn :p ,but if you did I'm sure their reiviews would improve tremendously.
I didn't think about youtube. That,I'll try that later!
Bah,you're lucky that you graduate this spring. :P I still have two more years to endure. :P
What'd you think of P&P'05? I love it but can't anyone to watch it with me. :P

@Djaq: I've actually never seen Robin Hood. I've seen Merlin though. I've been meaning to look up some episodes on youtube,but things just keep getting busier and busier. 8-| *sigh*
So whatcha been up to lately. :)

@FF: Yeah,but think the mixture of funny and sad made it such a good movie. :)
So how's the weather where you are? :) Is the the snow melting? Oh,I can't wait for some warmer weather!

Hello,Bother Eustace! :) Sweet graphics! I've never seen Psych,but I've heard it's pretty good.

Ok,I think that's it. #:-s

And if you didn't see it at the top of my post,please check this out. :) :P

I must dash!

~ Square Dasher (Libby)

Hi Square Dasher! You have not been doing much dashing lately ;)) Thanks I will! I am :P

Cool...when you said you were going to Florida the first thing that popped into mind was Disney World... :p

Last time I went down to Florida I went to Disney World I might this time too. Some of my friends can get me in free

Thank you. :)

You Welcome

Neat, my home state! Hope you enjoy your visit, even if it is for work and not necessarily pleasure.

Thanks! Well its for work but when I'm working with my brothers its fun!

Cool. What kind of work? :)

House Panting, Interior and Exterior :D

8-| whatever... :p

Wait wait I used the wrong word! I said "I think" I meant I know I'm right :P ;)

um, let me see *logs on to netflix*. It's called "Turk Flu". Please tell me it isn't sad! :-s :p

No that one is not sad :)

You'll have to watch it, it's great! There's only one kinda risque scene in the beginning but besides that it's my favorite adaption of the book. :)

You should read them. If you like the movies I mean, which apparently you do :p . Wow that's funny. It's one of my fave movies but not my fave. My fave is The Passion of Christ, then End of the Spear, then Pride and Prejudice :p .

I will have to! I think that I'll read the next Ranger's Apprentice book then The Narnia books then Maybe I'll read a Jane Austen after that :)
Oh the Passion of the Christ is so Good! Amazing!

*curtain goes up and announcer enters stage*

Good afternoon ladies and gents! It's quite a dull and dismal day outside, not a spark of sunlight. So, we thought that you all would like something to cheer you up! Or just make you laugh hysterically...either way, welcome to the Ruby-Winter hour of utter insanity!!

*applause*

Today, we would like to welcome two guest stars Meltintalle and Benjamin. *

30 days after our previous post, somewhere near the North Pole....

Hey, look! I think I see them coming!

Mel and Benjamin pull up alongside Winter and Ruby.*

Sorry, but you didn't exactly give us any directions.

Meltintalle's car and wave*

Ruby: Does this mean I'm stuck on the motorcycle?

Ruby: *shrugs* I've always wanted to ride on a motorcycle...

Ten minutes later...

*Mel and Winty are speeding down the high way in Mel's Ferrari with the heater blasting.

Ruby and Benjamin likewise are speeding down the high way, both of them lacking the heat and Ruby lacking a coat.

Ruby: *shivering* I-I guess I should have brought a c-coat with me.

Do you think we should let them ride with the penguins?

Ruby gradually thaws*

Ruby: Oof! I'm stiff! *hops off motorcycle* Ah! It's good to be back in the Square again! Thanks for the ride!

Can you tell that we've been learning all about Ontogeny Recapitulates Phylogeny? Which is actually a false concept but some crazy scientist thought it was true...and then there's--

Ruby: *groans on remembering the exam* Can you tell I've been studying too hard? Anyway, I'm hungry, do you want to go get something to eat? Perhaps we could take our "rescuers" out to lunch? We do owe them a favor...

Benjamin: Why don't we just go to the Ditto Town Cafe? They serve much better food there than McDonalds.

Mel has already vanished at the sound of the word "McDonalds"

Ruby: Rats. Well, let's go...

*the company wander off to the Ditto Town Cafe, but unfortunately none of them notice Pudgy swimming in the Square Fountain...*

*curtain drops and announcer enters stage*

Well, that's all for tonight, folks! Tune in next time for the following episode of the Ruby-Winter hour of utter insanity!!

*applause and announcer exits stage left*

*DISCLAIMER We do not own Meltintalle and Benjamin. All dialogue in here is fiction. :)

Oh wow! Well I'm glad you got a computer going now!

*Feels most honored to be in the Ruby-Winter hour of utter insanity, even though it is a bit insane ;) * I thought it was just Mel that was getting to be in it. But I'm glad I was able to be of help also! Even though my ride was a bit chilly *shivers* ;))
I like the *DISCLAIMER ;))

Oh cool! I did not learn that you and GTG were good friends "offline" until just recently when I read the topic "NarniaWebbers you've met in person".
That's cool that he gave you a computer!

I actually have not knitted for a little while I need to finish up my green scarf, I'm almost done I just need to do a few more rows.

Well, you've been playing violin longer than I've been playing piano, speaking of which I need to go practice, I have a lesson tomorrow!

Oh, neat! How are you enjoying piano? Which songs are you learning? :)

How have you been doing?

Good, thank you!! I'm actually moving to a different room in our house (which... I guess I'm a bit disappointed about) :p but it's ok. :p We've been painting my new room this morning. :)

Tomorrow,I'm going to the MONTICELLO!!!

Oh, how fun! How did that go? :) Hope it was enjoyable!

*starts to waves back....then gives a hug instead* ;) Everything is going great here in...where I am! ;)
;)) How is the weather up there right now? It's positively GORGEOUS here! (I'm not trying to make you jealous, or anything)

;)) Ah, the weather's ok... it's been a little chillier the past few days though. :( A sprinkling more of snow again, but I don't know how long it'll last. :D Things are going well here-I'm moving into a new room in our house, so we've been painting that brown this morning. :D

How are the competition songs coming along now?

Hello! Where's your avatar from? :) Competition songs are coming along fairly well, though I need to memorize one of them... :p I have about 10 days to get it memorized... But I shouldn't wait until the last moment. :p How've you been?

BotherEustace I like your avatar and signature. :) Psych is pretty good, though there's a bit too much language and bad humor a lot of the time. :p Of course, any of that is too much.

But that is what Jesus said would happen in the last days, that people would be offended with Him. And that would count the things people write about Him.

What's your opinion on it? Did you read it?

Well, you can't say that just because people are offended by it it's true or something. :p Of course I'm going to be offended if what people are writing is false. :)
I haven't read it, but from what I hear--isn't God portrayed as an woman?

That immediately turns me off--there's no way I would want to read or enjoy a book that had such ideas. :p

Mortereve! :)

I don't remember who told me they have seen August Rush, but I have seen it too and it's a great movie...Sorry I couldn't find your post to quote you. :)

I don't think I'm the one that said I saw it, but I have seen it. I love that movie so much! I'm glad you like it :)

@Ali: LOL! :P
We had some rain last night,but thankfully not a storm. But I love the rain. :)
It's "Lothlorien". Not "Lotholorien". ;)) lol
Btw,I finally bought "Five Score"! :D Oh,it sooo good. So now I have the last three RK albums. I'm halfway to complteting my collection. :P

Our power went out again today actually, after a light rain. I was so upset and worried at first but the electricity company came and fixed it, it was only a branch fallen on our wires or something.

whoops :p *not that I really care* ;)

Yay ! I hope you enjoy it! What other CDs do you need to get? :D

House Panting, Interior and Exterior :D

aah. Your house or someone elses? (I feel like asking alot of questions :p )

Wait wait I used the wrong word! I said "I think" I meant I know I'm right :p ;)

8-| you're annoying. :p

No that one is not sad :)

yay, hopefully I'll watch it tonight :)

I will have to! I think that I'll read the next Ranger's Apprentice book then The Narnia books then Maybe I'll read a Jane Austen after that :)
Oh the Passion of the Christ is so Good! Amazing!

Cool, as long as you read them eventually :p

It is a great movie. The best I've seen. It touches you so much, I sobbed throughout pretty much the whole movie. We skipped the scene where they whipped Jesus and when they actually crucified him, b/c I'm really sensitive to that stuff. But I was still bawling as it was. It helps visualize the sacrifice he made because of us. :)

haven't read it, but from what I hear--isn't God portrayed as an woman?

I know you didn't ask me this but, yes, he's potrayed as a big, black woman. There's a reason behind it, but that doesn't excuse it to me. I'm never going to read that book, unless just to have an "educated"-dislike for it ;) .

TTFN :)

*enters square listening to Psalm 80 - "Restore Us" by Sons of Korah* I love listening to the psalms! The Sons of Korah especially do a very good job of singing and performing them. :)

Well...last night and today have been quite interesting. :) Winty and I had a crazy night/very early morning devising evil plots and crazy ideas for our altogether "untimely" story. :P But it was loads of fun! And I've got a lot of new material to work with for the revision of our story. :)

So...time to catch up! It appears I have a couple pages worth of the stuff. :)

You might be able to find some of the songs on youtube.

*smile* :) That's my usual course of action when checking out new songs.

Actually, there's a lot of secular music that's totally fine, like movie soundtracks for example. Unfortunately, a lot of what's considered "Christian" music is even worse than some secular music! And, it's not just a matter of liking or disliking... there are principles involved. Like I said, I'm not an expert on this, so that's about all I can say.

Those are pretty much my thoughts. I like to listen to soundtracks and classical a lot too. But you are so true when there are a lot of artists who write "clean music" that isn't really Christian or they say they're Christians when they're really not. What do you look for in music? I try and focus on the content, such as the lyrics. But then there are some styles of music that I just cannot listen to (like rap, for instance).

Aye, I can understand that! Or sometimes when I'm talking about the things I didn't like about a certain movie or book, I make the negative things sound much worse than it really actually is... >_>

Oh my goodness! I do the exact same thing!! And I do it way too much.. I like and try to point out the negative things in movies and books, just to give my friends a heads up. But I usually make it sound horrible. :P

Have you seen any of the third season of Robin Hood yet? Just curious, because Winty and I were talking about it today. :P

Aww, colds are terrible and I'm so sorry to hear that it was the worst that you've had so far! :( I am glad that you're over it now though!

Yeah, I'm glad it's gone too! :)

It's a very tough thing to go through! I've had three older sisters get married and move out, so I know what it's like. Y'all must be really glad that she calls often though!

It's just extremely weird, because whenever our family sits down to dinner it doesn't feel like we're all there. But I guess in a few more years, I'll be one of the ones moving out and then it won't be so strange. :P

I hope that you're able to decide on one that you like! It's good to hear that you now know what kind of speech you want to do. :)

I finally decided on Abraham Lincoln's speech "Let us have faith that right makes might". I think that's what it's called. It was given during his presidential campaign and it's really good. :)

My brother has heard Fireflies and likes it, so if I'm singing it, he actually might join in from time to time. ;)) Other than that, I don't think he's heard anything else by OC. We have lots of music on our computer too, so it's hard to pick something to listen to. ;))

My mom really likes Owl City and one of my brothers said that he thinks they're "okay". I put some Owl City on his mp3 player and so far he hasn't taken it off. He took off all the Relient K though (surprising) and I asked why he didn't take off Owl City and he was like "they're not that bad". I thought it was pretty funny. My mom really likes his music too and my sister, so we're always singing along when we turn on OC. :)

I have tons of music on my computer now too. Most of it was my sister's stuff, but then my brother put all his music (a lot of which I liked, so I don't mind that much) on. :P

*waves to Prince Cor*How has your weekend been going/has gone?

lol me too. I'm about 2/3 of the way through. Then I have to write an essay on the character of Achilles

Haha! I love that face. =)) I still have an essay to write on Heart of Darkness...it's an extremely boring book and is so random, I'm trying to figure out how to make it all work. I hope you finish up Achilles soon and have fun writing! :) ;)

*waves to Bother Eustace* Nice to see you on the Square! How have you been as of late?

*waves to GeorgieXOXOsmile* You like the movie August Rush? That's one of my all-time favorites. :)

I've been wondering where Narnia Girl has been lately too. But I haven't seen her or talked to her for a while...

@Dani: You sound like me. :P
I actually haven't heard that song, but the new single I was talking about is called "Healing Begins".

Like right after you told me they had a new single, I found it in MissAravis' YouTube channel. :) I love it! And I've listened to it over and over! :)

I've already pre-ordered the Cd. :P I can't wait either! :D

I'll probably ask for it for an early birthday present or something. I heard that they're touring in the fall? I really, really hope I can see them in concert again!! :)

Aw,I'm sorry. :( Knowing Latin still sounds neat though. :)

It is really cool! All you have to do is say "I know Latin" and everyone automatically thinks you're uber-smart. :P And even though the language is dead, it is very very useful. It also really sharpens your understanding of grammar and how sentences work together. I guess in the end, all the effort will be worth it. :)

*Feels most honored to be in the Ruby-Winter hour of utter insanity, even though it is a bit insane ;) * I thought it was just Mel that was getting to be in it. But I'm glad I was able to be of help also! Even though my ride was a bit chilly *shivers* ;))
I like the *DISCLAIMER ;))

Oh, I'm sorry if we forgot to warn you! But I'm glad you enjoyed it all the same. :) We had fun with you and Mel. And we needed you because Mel's car was full of penguins. :P

Good, thank you!! I'm actually moving to a different room in our house (which... I guess I'm a bit disappointed about) :p but it's ok. :p We've been painting my new room this morning. :)

I'm glad to hear you're doing well! You're moving into a new room? I just moved into a different room in our house! And I'm still working on getting all my stuff in there. :P I hope everything works out! :)

Well, I'll be off now! It looks like it's about time for dinner here in the Gamgee hobbit hole, and then some Doctor Who and then bed time!

Tomorrow's daylight savings! Have fun waking up an hour earlier, everyone!

God bless!

Yeah I thought of that after I posted That's true.

Yes God was portrayed as a woman. But God is not Man or Woman so I could get offended with people that say God is a man. That's just to make a point mind you :) I see God definitely as a man and not as a woman :)
I definitely agree that it was really strange when I first read that book when they portrayed God as a woman! /:) I was having my doubts about the book at that time ;)) But because of who wrote that and who recommended the book, I knew I needed to look past that and try to see where the truth was in it. It's hard to get past that point but you would understand it a lot more if you read it.

aah. Your house or someone elses? (I feel like asking alot of questions :p )

I will be painting lots of different houses :D Costumer's houses

8-| you're annoying. :p

Yes I know :( ;) :D

yay, hopefully I'll watch it tonight :)

Hope you like it!

Cool, as long as you read them eventually :p

I'm sure I will.

:p . What's that book about? I hope I finished the book soon too. I wish they told you this at the beginning of the book, but now I have to go through the whole thing and circle Achilles name whenever he is mentioned 8-|

I will be painting lots of different houses :D Costumer's houses

ahh cool, so I'm assuming there's pay involved :p

Yes I know :( ;) :D

dude you make me feel bad! :p

Hope you like it!

I did, just finished watching it. I might start the next one too :p . It was sad though :| ;)

*looks around* I sobbed too ;)) it is very touching!

;)) . It is! That's why I love it. So great.Do you know that the guy that played Jesus actually has a huge nine inch scar on his back from the whipping scene! One time the guard accidentally hit him. He also got struck by lightning when they wre filming the crucifixion scene!

I'm sure I will.

good. :p

Trust me you would understand it more if you read it :p

I know why God appears as such. I just don't agree with some of the theology in the book, or what I've heard of it. Maybe I'll read it when I'm a bit older and not so easily swayed in opinion. Not that I am very easily swayed, just kinda :p

@Ben:Um,if we weren't alive we wouldn't be here,and we're on NarniaWeb,so of course we're well. :P ;)

@Queen Susan: Thank you! :) It was a lot of fun. You couldn't take pictures inside the house though. :P But I didn't get a good picture of it from the outside. :) I'm probably going to put it on my blog later this week.
How's everything going for you? :)

@Ali:Well,I'm sure that was a relief. :)
Of course I'm enjoying it! :P ;) I've actually got my sister addicted to "Deathbed". It's like Owl City all over again. :P I caught her listening to "Do You Feel" by The Rocket Summer too! :D
I still need their self-titled Cd,The Anatomy of the Tongue in Cheek, and Two Lefts Don't Make a Right...But Three Do. The store I buy my music only has TAOTTIC though,so I'll have to order the other two online. But I'm trying to take a break from buying so many Cd's. I wonder how long it'll last...:P
I also got the new Sanctus Real Cd. It's VERY good. :)
So what's new with you? :)

@Dani:Yay,I'm glad you like it! :)
Well,good luck with that. :) I'm still not sure what I want for my b-day but I have a few months to think about it. :P
That's what I've heard. I hope you can go too! Did you get to see Scott the last time you went to a concert of theirs,or did they already have a sub bassist?
It will,I'm sure. :) I really only want to earn it for etymology purposes. ;))
