NOTE: UNTIL THE FIRST TIME I WRITE MR. FOSTER, THIS NOTE IS DATED 8/10/01. Hey, sorry I haven't written all week, I haven't had much of a chance. I'm going to try to quickly sum it all up for you, because I don't have much time right now. My cousins are over, and they will be here until Saturday, where I will leave with them back to North Carolina for a week. I will probably have more time to write there, as they have about ten computers within two houses. On Monday, I got my Doors boxed set in the mail, and it is awesome. It contains all six original studio albums plus Essential Rarities and a big booklet with info on each album and all the lyrics (save Alabama Song, Back Door Man, and Crawling King Snake, which weren't written by the Doors). The CDs themselves are the coolest things I've ever seen (cd wise), because they look like miniature records. They are in cardboard cases with sleeves to hold them in, exactly like a record. I believe the cds are the same labels that were used for the sticker on the vinyl. The L.A. Woman cd is rounded at the edges, and has a clear screen that shows the yellow sleeve behind it, to make the yellow effect behind the faces. You may not understand what I mean with all of this, you have to see it to understand it. Yesterday, I just got back from a two-day Maine trip to see my Aunts and Uncle's (it doesn't look right to write uncles), and two more of my cousins came with us to give their dad their big smelly dog Owen, because he was too big. While I was there, I visited my Aunt's neighbors, who own my other cousins' dog, Max, and my cat Bob's sister, Claudia. Now as some of you may know, Bob is a female cat who is the devil. I have always wondered what her sister would be like, so I finally visited. The owner said that Claudia used to be a witch, but then one winter she'd had enough and she chucked her out on the ice and she slid and hit something, and since then she had been an angel. But it seems the more I throw Bob, the evil-er she gets. Oh by the way, I saw Mr. Foster at the beach on Monday or Tuesday or something. (Now it's 8/12) He asked me about a path he was supposed to exit from the beach and I said "I-unno." He then said, "you don't know anything, do you?" And I said "uh, no." Then my cousin said it's over there somewhere and Mr. Foster said to me "this kid knows more than you." Then he said to my cousin "Take care of him." So, that was nice. As of the 12th, I am in North Carolina at my cousins' house. I'm kinda bored at the second, but hopefully I'll do something tomorrow. Today I saw Rush Hour 2, and last night I watched the first one. They are both good, and the second one isn't just some crappy sequal that has no point and extends into things nobody cares about, like Scary Movie 2. I have nothing left to write, so gu bye.
