Earl=Terrible Wax

Hasta la vista!

Oh, was that supposed to come at the beginning or the end? Well, anyway.

These few past days that I haven’t been blogging have been amazing.

We went to the Sixth Floor Museum and I discovered a theory for how there were four shots. He took 3 shots from the first window, and then darted over to the other window and shot another. Yeah, so that’s my theory.

I have figured myself out a lot.

Like I hate Josephine Tussaud’s Wax Museum. Bad. I thought I liked wax museums. I like the Hollywood Wax Museum. I LOVE the David Wax Museum. I want to see Madam Tussaud’s. But Josephine Tussaud is BAD WAX.

I think they had a horrible, I know the Last Supper is awesome, but it made out of wax does not go together. I got super scared when I saw the Jesus on the cross because his foot was falling off, so I ran around the corner into the horror section! I got super freaked out! Super high pitch screams and grabbed Mommy for my life!

And then Harvey showed me around the other corner and she told me, “Come look! It’s Teddy Roosevelt and a horse!” I stuttered, “Teddy Roosevelt’s nice?” And then I darted in front of Jesus on the Cross feeling like he was going to fall off. I followed Harvey to see Teddy Roosevelt’s horse, then she pulled me around another corner where we saw Bill Clinton (the best wax), the Kennedy family, Martin Luther King Jr., and Barack Obama (the worst wax).

Next was the fairy tale section. So I went in, I was still really scared because I thought the wax would come to life, especially the ones in the horror section. I don’t even know who was IN the horror section! Well, I think Al Capone was. And some other historic creatures.

Well, we went in and saw Rumplestiltskin and Sleeping Beauty. I said, “She had no arms! We must be in the unfinished section.” And then Harvey said, “No, that’s just the puffs from her sleeves.” And I was like, “Oh.” Then we saw Mark Twain with Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer.

I have to end this right now because we’re going to explore caves, so one last thing. Well, two. Another wax we saw was Neil Armstrong with his helmet. This is me resembling him when I was 4.

And the second thing…

HASTA LA VISTA!!

        I tried to make a good review. Probably not the best on the internet, though. But MY best!

          Just keep it up G! Just write how you feel and the rest will work itself out.
          P.S. Watch out for aliens. Not the real ones… The ones your mama makes you watch on X-files.

    Wow. Seeing Christ’s foot about to fall off would have freaked me out too!! Thanks for letting us into your world. It’s SO eye-opening and refreshing.

    Yeah, I think a wax Jesus would kind of freak me out too. I want to hear your full theory on the 4th shot scenario though. I think you may be into something.

    Good blogging Earl, I have never been to a Wax Museum. I’m going to put that on my things to do list. And I like how you think.
