Sunday night stakeout...

...on the computer, in front of Wendelin Van Draanen's blog, etrtr.blogspot.com.

WHEN WILL THE PAGE BE UPDATED? Just checked. Nothing. Gahhhhhhhhhhhh...... she said that there would be updates today.........

Just checked again. Nada.

I was so excited when she announced that she would be starting up the blog again, after a year long (probably?) hiatus. Yipppee!! I thought. I can now peek into the mind of [just checked again. zilch.] one of the coolest authors ever! W00t! Plust get updates on all new books and movies!

And then I found out that she would update every Sunday. And so that's why I'm here [just checked--still nothing], simultaneously blogging and clicking the refresh icon on the screen.

Maybe I should check again in a few minutes? But I don't want to miss anything! Oh, the wait is so agonizing......

Oh, shoot. I might have to put my stakeout on hold for a while. I still haven't practiced piano today and a MUCHO HUGE-O piano competition is on Sat. Dang it!

Just checked again--zero, zip, zilch, nada.

I've also noticed something--whenever it appears on my screen, it always displays the time as a few hours ahead. I suppose that's because of the time difference, but sometimes it's completely random, like I check it @ 8 o'clock pm but Blogger says it was posted at [checked again. no change] 3:23 or something. Strange.

Or maybe I should just learn to be a tad more patient. Maybe. And Ms. Van Draanen probably has a busy life filled with running, writing, and other cool things.

Okay. I'm going to practice piano now. Hopefully it'll be up here in an hour...

Later. Okay, an hour and a few minutes later.

IT'S UPDATED! And chock-full of cool info too, albeit a little sad. The Sammy Keyes series is ending at book 18! Only five more years left of new Sammy books! But at least there's the impending "Sammy Short" thing--that would just be the COOLEST BEANZ, YO. And that just might hold me over until October and Sammy Keyes and the Wedding Crasher comes out.

Can't wait! Won't wait! Will unfortunately have to wait! Darn it!
