Miscellaneous. That's a funny word.
08.17.08 (8:10 pm) [edit]To be completely honest, I have no writing goal in mind. Usually I begin a blog with a topic at least, but I don't really have one right now. I'm just writing again to improve my English skills. The wonderful thing about the blog is that you and the reader, have no idea how many times I've edited this! haha.
I was browsing through flair on the pieces of flair app a little while ago (Facebook application where you can pick out buttons to put on your very own cork board space on your profile) and found it funny that a portrait of Jesus was right next to a portrait of Bob Saget.
It has rained all day today. That never happens here, much less in August. It's supposed to do the same tomorrow. The freshmen are moving in tomorrow too. I hope they bring big plastic sheets to throw over their stuff so it's not soaking wet by the time they drag it up from the parking lot! Due to the rain, I slept for four hours this afternoon. That's what Sunday afternoons are all about. The problem lies in that I really need to go to bed early tonight because I have a dentist appointment at 8:30 am.
My cousin Ryan ran a triathlon today. I am so jealous of him! He just got started in the outdoor sports a few months ago and he's already doing all this stuff with it. Like he's done this and he goes mountain biking on the weekends and hiking! He's a member of some group up where he lives. People around here just aren't interested in that kind of thing. Of course, the mesquite trees and scrub brush don't get me real excited about spending time in the great outdoors either. But sheesh, you'd think in a decent sized city there'd be something! There is a bike club. Maybe I should look into it. I suppose the reason I haven't is because the only bike trail near here has a really big drop with a gravel pit at the bottom in which I've heard everyone takes a big spill. I don't want to fall! That's where the group rides. I may try to find out some more info though, because that's what the adventure sports are all about; conquering one's fears.
I'm pretty sure that the school's population of ducks has waddled away from the pond in the rain and taken up residence under my window today. Either that or a very large chorus of frogs. Well, toads. It's too dry around here to have real frogs. Usually, not today though. Maybe they came out from hibernation. If a frog were to hibernate around here to wait for rain, they'd have ridiculously long lives. But the point is that there is something making quite a bit of noise down there. I'm not on ground level, so I'm sure I'm not getting the full effect. I'm sad. Not.
I've been wanting to read for days, so I'm off to do so.
