Months ago, J.K. Rowling wrote The Tales of Beedle the Bard, which is a book of wizard fairy tales that are mentioned in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The catch was that she was only writing (handwriting and illustrating) 7 copies. Six were given to friends who helped her during her life, and 1 [...]

Tomorrow my family and I are leaving on vacation! I’m so excited. I need a break from work! We’re going to the resort in PA that we went to last year and three years ago. It’s really fun, there’s all sorts of different things to do. Water skiing, boating, swimming (they’ve got an indoor pool, [...]

I finally took some pics of the new carpet and my room with all the stuff back in it. I think it was more of a pain to put all my stuff back than to take it out in the first place. My room looks pretty much the same as it did before we got [...]

“You know, I’m thinking I might buy one of these wind breakers. They don’t have any lining or anything. And some mornings when I’m walking, I just need something to break the wind.’
I immediately [...]

A couple weeks ago my bro’s fish tank leaked all over the carpet in his room and he had to rip up some of the carpet. My parents decided that they might as well just replace all the carpet upstairs instead of just that little corner of my bro’s room. They had been thinking about [...]

I had a relatively good 4th of July. Well, it was good once I got out of work. Work was utterly insane the entire day, what with people buying twenty packages of hot dogs, ten cases of beer, etc. I had not seen the store that busy since the weekend before Christmas.

My brother is turning 18 in the fall and decided to register to vote now so it would be all processed before the November election. Everyone in my family is quite liberal, my bro included. Neither my parents or I registered with a party when we registered to vote. I considered re-registering as a Democrat [...]

I have realized that I have been siriusly neglecting this blog. Yes, that was a Sirius pun. Anyway, I haven’t posted anything in over a week, which is rare. This time it is not due to any Plurking. I have not Plurked in over a week either. Life has just been utterly chaotic.
My twin cousins’ [...]
