I hope that you feel better, Kirsten!

I wonder, what would be on Ananka's wish list this Christmas...

WillSing said...

I think the Santa is staring at me.....

Oh well,

Tip: Boil some ginger in a pot and add honey ( Not too much ginger it smells up the room) and squeeze a lemon and drink all of it. You should feel better in an hour or two.

Kira said...

Oh wow...sick on Christmas! That sucks. I had the stomach flu last Thanksgiving, but that's not as bad. Well Kirsten, rest up, eat lots of chicken soup, and Merry Christmas!
P.S. Mint Tea (no sugar, no creme) really helps as well!

Cassie: Thats exactly what I was thinking! Great minds think alike!

Some Lost Melody said...

Forrester said...

Kiki Strike; Diddo. We didn't even get a tree. :( It was a tough year. I got one present and that's it.

Forrester said...

hey! i'm not The impostor! your the impostor!!!!!

Anna said...

aww, I'm sorry. This one was actually pretty good! I had the worst Christmas eve ever though... I left all my presents my anunts and uncles gave me at my grandma's house. It was so sad to see her there, i think she has lost her memory and her husband died in august, so it was her first christmas alone. She actually called my mom once asking "Is it true that my husband and son have died?" (My uncle Geaton died in 2005.) it was so sad...
Well after we went home my mom yelled at me to clean my room at 11:45, so i did... sobbing (she was screaming really loud but that was because she took some pain medicine that makes her sleepy and she get angry when she is sleepy for no apparent reason) and then i put the cookies on the table. the next morning my mom hadn't 'invited santa to come into our house' yet and so i woke her up and she ate some of the cookies and drained half the milk since it rot overnight... and then i had a good christmas, although my new snuggie kept shocking me.

Forrester said...

TicTac; Good, honesty among us is CRUCIAL. i'm stuck in Missouri.

Al Fonzo said...

Forrester: OMZ (oh my zing!) You live in Missouri? Same here! Sorry for peoples who had a terrible Christmas but I had an AWESOME one. I got a phone a window seat, and a copy of Van Gogh Starry Night! Plus to make it better we got about two inches of snow on Christmas! Our family was SO excited because last night all it did was rain, pour. down. rain. and. my. coat. doesnt. have. a. hood.

True_Dragon_Master said...

I had an awesome christmas! I got 3 books I have been wanting. I also got a machine to write on, it looks like a computer but it doesn't connect to the internet or do games. I love writing.
Sorry to all the people who had a bad christmas

capybara said...

Uhhhh....
My internal alarm clock thingie usually works pretty well, so when I woke up yesterday morning I thought it was like 7 or so so i went in to the living room and then realized it was like 2 in the morning. I went back to bed but kept waking up every thirty minutes or so. added to that, I kept on having this dream where these giant guitar-playing chunks of pineapple who are Santa's evil minions kept on alternately rip out mu throat and kill me with overdoses of those mall-y christmas songs... =(
Other than that though, I got some cool stuff... like THIS LAVA LAMP THAT HAS PLASMA INSTEAD OF LAVA!!!!! =) =) =) =)

Aww... I'm sorry everyone who had a bad X mas...

Forrester said...

Forrester 4:30; Oh no I'm not the impostor. Proof? For one thing, I can spell you're correctly. For another thing, I capitalize at the beginning of the sentences. And I've been posting by the name Forrester for MONTHS over a YEAR I think. And I use the screen name 'Forrester' because it's my middle name after my great grandfather on my Dad's side. It's also in my E-mail address. And if you don't quit there will be consequences.


P.S. I posted answers to the rage on the last post.

ForresterVA said...

Hello people! It's Forrester! I got an account so no IMPOSTORS can bug me. If they try. You'll know.

~chanel~ said...

Merry (day after) Christmas! I didnt' have a chance to say Merry Christmas yesterday because my stupid computer was being all screwy.

Flashback alert!!!!

Two Christmases (?) ago, an 11-year-old bookworm was at her grandparents' house sitting by their tree. Underneath was a pile of presents. She picked up a random box and shook it. It was the perfect size and weight for a book. Hopeful, she checked the tag on the present. It was for her! When it was time to open gifts, her family gathered all around and started passing out the presents. Everyone had to wait their turn. When it was her turn, the girl opened a present that was obiviously clothes. She didn't mind because she already knew she'd like it. (She picked out most of her presents a few weeks ago with her grandmother.) She saved the book for last. She knew it would be a surprise since she hadn't told her grandmother any titles that she might like to read. She finally tore at the colorful Christmas wrapping paper that was hiding the book from her eyes. When it was open at last, the present was a book she never heard of before. She turned it over to read the back cover and started to smile. After all the gifts were given and dinner was done, the girl snuck upstairs to the study where there was a couch. It wasn't a comfortable couch at all, but it was quiet there. She opened the book and turned the page...

She stayed up all night reading that book. (She didn't fall asleep until 6 AM!) Even after the book had ended, she knew the story wasn't over. When the second book was released, she couldn't wait to get her hands on it. She was at a school book fair with her grandmother and pointed it out to her. Her grandmother bought it but wouldn't give it to her right away. She was saving it for Christmas.

End flashback.

Sorry for the lengthy post, but that was how my addiction to this series started. Yesterday, I was extremely disappointed. Not that I didn't get anything I liked, only one present was missing. It seemed that since for the past two years, I received one of the series. I was sad that this year would break tradition. :(

I appologize for the guilt trip but I need book 3!!!!!!

Merry Christmas!

MushroomCloud said...

I AM SO CONFUSED!!! Which of these Forresters is the one I started planning the rage w/?? Is ForresterVA the right one? I'm sorry u people had bad Christmases:(:(:(. Did the real or fake forrrester have a bad christmas? if it's the real, I'm sorry, if not I'm slightly less sorry.

Megan said...

I had a backwards Christmas. My parents came to wake me up at 10:30! My mom came in saying 'Ho, ho, ho.' all sadly. Then my little sister came running in, singing 'santa came, Santa came!' then my dad came and said 'Get your fat *** out of bed, you lazy kid!' love you too, Daddy!
But I got a new camerea, new violin, new iPhone- acidentaly broke the old one-, and nearly $200 for iTunes! Sorry to anyone who didn't have a good Christmas!

Emily said...

Oh, I'm utterly ill as well.
I've been reading your blog for quite awhile , but this is my first time to comment.
I love your books, I read the first one to my family and they were captivated.
God bless!

Reel Dancer said...

any new developments with Laura. I don't have time to look right now...:(

ForresterVA said...

I hope I have a better Christmas over at my dad's in January. (Fingers crossed!) I asked for a pair of binoculars. I like having an account. It's cool.

ForresterVA said...

MushroomCloud; I started the rage and had a bad Christmas. The impostor posted that we need adults. And that I'm the impostor. >:P <-To you impostor.

ForresterVA said...

ReelDancer; Nothing.

ForresterVA said...

P.S. Thank you for being slightly less sorry for the impostor. :)

sad girl said...

Shove off fake Forrester!

MushroomCloud said...

osayemi olusegun: you might not need to wait till urr older to explore NY, that is if our revot works... which it will! read our posts for the last few posts.. you'll understand!

ForresterVA said...

WE WILL TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!

ForresterVA said...

Do people get mugged a lot in New York City? What does XD mean?

Anonymous said...

So ... wait a moment. You're all boycotting school lunches because of the meat problem? (Just wondering--I'm homeschooled so I don't have that problem)

If you are, COOL!

Merry (belated) Christmas!

Anonymous said...

Merry Christmas!And sorry you're sick but when is the next book coming out? Will there be a next book? What will it be about?
Just curious.

EQ said...

I spent Christmas on the beach watching sandpipers. They're so cute...they scurry out and then back in again ahead of the waves...they are FAST and very small. They could probably move faster than me and they are no bigger than my hand. It's pretty neat. Hooray for California! (and yes, this is why I use the name EQ, because my first few posts were about earthquakes in my homestate)

Oh my goodness, it's a war between the Forresters!

XD is an emoticon, like :-) except that it is a crazy grinning face instead of just a plain smiley face.

EQ said...

Out of curiosity, what happened to Forrester and Lizard's plan to leave Earth? (Back in September) Sounds a lot more fun than a revolution.

We should come up with a test to determine the real Forrester.

Anonymous said...

i watched miss congeniality last night and it was funny!!

Patsee said...

Gosh, I haven't commented in ages...

I got a copy of Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters for Christmas. =]

Anonymous said...

get better soon!!!!

ForresterVA said...

Okay. I have come up with step two of the Kids Rebel Against Adults plan (yes, the name is temporary until someone comes up with a better one). Now this is to be used AFTER the first part has taken effect. Everybody goes to the school lunch link and either prints up one copy and copies it or prints up numerous copies. Then you pass them out around your school. Then THEY'LL know too and it will really be rebellion. But don't tell them about the rebellion. Just say I think we have a right to know. Also say this if you get into trouble. It's not a lie for those of you concerned. It's the truth. The cold, hard, disgusting, truth.
