¡Spell Bowl, Woot-Woot!

¡Woot-Woot!

Our Spell Bowl competion is tomorrow!  Yay!  I'm ready for some intense spelling!  Lol... =)  Yup, I'm a nerd!  But really... a bunch of my friends are in it, so I'm really excited!  I even skipped Tae Kwon Do to study this evening!  =)

Oh, and I heard new about my camera!  They are going to look for it again sometime this week (Wednesday I think), and they are pretty confident they'll find it from what it sounds like, so all you picture bugs out there may yet be appeased!  Oh, they didn't promise the camera would be working still, but I know I can get the pictures if the memory chip is still protected.  It's on the inside, and it hasn't rained here yet, so it shoule be in working order!  =)

Best wishes to Spell Bowlers, from Queen Hazel Marie Hirschy, ruler of the world, lady of the all the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea, and everything else between them, et cetera, et cetera......
