User blog:TangledVarian4Eves/A Day in the Life of Lisa Loud



I got up this morning. I saw my little sister, Lily still sleeping. She is so adorable, I love doing tests on her tiny baby brain.

Then I came downstairs for breakfast. All my older siblings were crowded around the table. Leni was staring off into space, Lori was text-messaging her boyfriend, Bobby, Luna was playing really loud music, Luan was telling really bad jokes, Lynn was trying to play basketball with an apple to toss in her mouth, Lincoln was eating his cereal while reading a hokey superhero comic, Lucy was trying to read others fortunes (which by the way never actually comes true..), Lana and Lola were fighting over the prize in the cereal.

And me? Well I need to try to eat in peace so I can head to the new science museum that opened up across town. I'm sure Mom or Dad could take me, that is, if they aren't too busy reining my obnoxious siblings under control...

Maybe I'll ask Lincoln's friend, Clyde's dads to take me....

Now I need to see if Mom and dad could bring me... "Can I check out the new science museum? It may give me new inspiration for my experiments. The only problem is you might need to take me, Mom."

"Sorry, Lisa, ask your father... He's in the attic." Mom stated.

So I went in the attic. Dad was cleaning up old momentums and keepsakes. I'll try not to interrupt him.

"Hey, Dad. I want you to drive me to the science museum. It's urgent I go. I'll need some inspiration to my new experiments. So what do you say?" I said with pleading eyes.

Dad said, "Sure. Just after I find your mom's old high school yearbook. I want to make her reunion with her old friends very special."

I said, "Okay... Though it's kind of urgent.. I have a project at school, too."

Dad said, "Ask Lori to take you.. She has her license, doesn't she?"

I said, "I guess. But wouldn't she be texting Bobby or something of the matter.. Oh what the heck!"

I went into Lori's room. She, of course, was messaging Bobby. I popped the question there.

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">She said, "Lisa, heavens NO! I was going to take Bobby out for the afternoon!"

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">I figure that won't last long. It's statistically proven that high school relationships NEVER work out in the end... She'll be begging to drive me places, and later, I may just refuse...

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">_________________________

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">Lincoln noticed my down expression.

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">"Lisa are you okay? I just got back from Clyde's. We can talk if something's wrong." Lincoln said looking concerned.

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">I said, "No.... I just really wanted to go to the new museum today, but looks like plans change..... Mom's busy, Dad's busy, and to heck with it, Lori's too self absorbed in Bobby that she refuses... I can't take being overlooked any more! I just can't... Now if you'll excuse me, I have some tests to do on Lily."

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">Just then Lincoln looked like he had an idea. <span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">_________________________________

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">Moments later, I was in for a major surprise.

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">Leni, who just got her license after much failures, volunteered to take me to the museum...

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">I said, "Gee thanks Leni! At least someone cares!"

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">Leni said, "Of course... Though it may run short, I have to be back in time for curfew at 7:00."

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">I realized it was 6:00! That wasn't what I had in mind!

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">________________________________

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">The museum was GREAT! I learned so much - but I already knew half the junk in the museum.. Like Pangea was Earth's super continent, a molecule can split an atom, and the elements on the periodic table... But who knew methane could cure diarrhea!

<span style="color:rgb(44,54,53);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;">It's been real. Lisa out!
