no sales tax YEAH YOU'RE JEALOUS

sooo first off, i'm in cannon beach for a family reunion thing, except that almost all the aunts/uncles etc have already left but OH WELL.

second: OH MY GODDDDD HARRY POTTER WAS SOOOO GOOD. i'm a nerd. BUT IT WAS SO GOOD!! oh wow. it was so intense. seriously. askdsd.

okay so more about oregon now. everyone was from my dad's side of the family, so it was me+mum+dad+brian, aunt jan + aunt laurie + auntmartha+unclehugo, grandma ruth, and the cousins: sean (20, yet super immature and sloppy and a dick, oh well), mack (16, loud/hyper, but cool), chris (14, quiet yet argumentative), walker (14, really nice but tries too hard), donald (12, rude-ish, kind of annoying/bossy), and margi (9, wayyyy talkative but really sweet). SO, i know you're all just so glad you got a chance to hear about my entire family. moving on.

stuff that we've done while here: going to the beach, having bonfires, going to the little cafe next to our inn (where i am right now), walking through town, shopping at a used book store and a really cool thruft store, hanging out in seaside, and reading TONSSS (harry potter 6, girl, naked pictures of famous people, keeping the moon, rolling stone, stoner and spaz, part of the popol vuh, and other bits and pieces). it's been alright, except for the missing-my-friends part and the being-around-lots-of-arguing-family-members part. buuuuut we come back tomorrow, so i think i'll survive.

whoooooa so a bus that looks exactly like carey's just drove by. puke green and everything.

anyway. things that molly has bought this week and will have trouble fitting into her suitcase: a seaside high school wrestling sweatshirt and baseball jacket, a sweatshirt and beanie from zumiez (only $9.97 all together, oh yes), a spotted scarf-belt, cow tales yummmm, part of alex's birthday present, lots of books (lots = 7), a dare shirt, a shirt that says "espresso: the breakfast ofchampions", a funky handmade scarf, and a record for lindsey.

also, a bunch of buttons. "join the army: travel to exotic, distant lands, meet exciting people, and kill them." -- "trees are the lungs of the earth" -- "people before profits" -- "smile" -- a fruitcake -- a piece of a tin can cut into a heart with a picture of a coffee-grinder on it.

wellll i've been sitting here for a while, so i should probably go outside. ooh boy. see you all soon.

ps. i LOVE having no sales tax.
