My nickname and a random fact

If any of you are wondering why my nickname is billyBobjoe, wonder no longer. Do you want the long version or the short version of what happened? Never mind, you have no say! I'll tell you the concise long account which is slightly shorter than the long short account. Understand? Good. Anyway, my best friend's brother's friend didn't know my name and guessed it to be Billy Bob Joe. It stuck for some random strange reason! Anywho, I guessed his name to be Fred. I was right! That is, now it's Fred. Shout out to KeKeJ and Fred and Zombie and MD!! I hope y'all read this!
You know what's a weird quirk of mine? Well, I'll tell you. I love anything having to do with the 20th century. Retro is one of my favorite styles and I like old black and white movies. Particularly ones with Gene Kelly!
*Gets up and starts dancing and pretending that it's raining* OK, I'm better now!
Random fact: Did you know that "okay" isn't actually the word "OK" is derived from? Originally, during a war, when the dudes would report to the other dudes who were in charge of them, they would say "0K" if zero were killed in battle. So when people say that OK is incorrect and okay is... well, now you know they're wrong!
So, I am only going to post once a week for the time being because if I didn't set rules, I'd spend all my time on here! Check back every Monday and I'll have a new post! Maybe I'll post more often after I get used to my new school schedule (which will be insanely hectic) or during breaks and summer!
If you're wondering what to expect from this blog, wonder no longer. I keep saying that don't I? Anywho, as I said before, this is not my diary and I won't bore you with accounts of things that happen in my life that don't matter to you about people you don't know! But you can expect anything funny, posts telling you about me, book reviews, movie reviews, and random essays. By random essays I mean short essays on interesting subjects! Like, for instance, "Why Guys Should Wear Vests and Ties: complete with pictures!" and other important topics! No joking, that subject has been laying heavy on my heart! I'm sorry the blog doesn't look as good as I want it to, but I don't know much about internet design. Hopefully I'll get someone who does to design Waltz Through The Forest, or teach me some html coding! The point of this blog is to kind of be like my own room. A place to release my creative juices and have fun. I want you as the reader to come to and follow Waltz because It'll provide funny and interesting reading and the occasional spiritual encouragement. If you aren't spiritual and want to know more about my God, leave me a comment and I'll email you/post about it!
Happy Independence Day! As much as I love England, I'm glad we have our own country and freedom!
For our personal family celebration, which we don't do most years, Daddy grilled burgers and corn!
I made potato salad, (thank you, thank you very much!) Stanley made deviled eggs, and someone made tea and lemonade! *stomach growls*
That would be fresh mint in the sweet tea. Are you jealous?
My Madre's family came over and we had a good time. Pictures coming soon of my adorable twin cousins! Then, we watched fireworks at a city park! They were beautiful and I got a few good photos! My sister was appalled when she found out I nicknamed her "Ro Joe". She is insisting that I change it to something way more interesting, such as Agent 38 or The Watermelon Rider. At least people would puzzle that one out for a little while! Actually, the last three sentences were written by Ro Joe, excuse me, Agent 38 herself! Oh wow.
If you have a request for a specific topic you want me to post on, leave me a comment telling me! I'll be glad to oblige!

  1. Girlie, you are a mile-a-minute!! Seriously, I can see all your facial expressions (zillions) and hear your voice as I read this!!! You are a hoot!

    Love your post, but also want to say that I, for one, would love to hear about your life (diary-ish) b/c I don't see you or talk to you as often as I'd like. Just sayin'... BUT, this is your blog, to do your way, and I'll be glad to just read what you choose to share.

    Jealous of the mint! Laughed about Ro Joe!
