Wow, no one has commented in a week...

I think they're too busy staring in shock at my questionable mental state. Oh well, I haven't had much time for it. What with the monkeys, the story I'm supposed to be writing, schoolwork, scoutwork, housework, churchwork, Halloween work (not a top priority), and who knows how many other things. -sighs-

Hubert, you should learn housekeeping and help me out a bit.

Hubert: I don't have thumbs.

Me: You disabled the alarm, took out the guards, and broke into my room easily enough.

Hubert: Hedgy did most of that. He wanted more slugs.

Me: Fine, then. Where's Hedgy?

#o

Hi, Hedgy, haven'y you always dreamed of cleaning the living room.
. .\
#o m

Nice mop. -tosses a slug to hedgy- Thanks.

You know, Hubert, I'm pretty sure people worse off than you have cleaned a house before.

Hubert: Were they made out of sticks?

Me: Some.

Anyway, I have to go again. -sighs- Something to do with the list above. But there are a few things I want to note. Team Concord might be going ice skating this Friday. We'll have to see, but it should be fun. Also, there's a ward party tonight. Yay.

Okay, now I go. -waves-

Here, kitty, kitty, kitty!

Last night was rather nice. Plenty o' clouds. Bjab went around the park to put up 'found cat' signs.

-glances up- I don't thing it'll rain here... -sighs-

-hubert walks through door-

What? Do you think this is your room now?

Hubert: The monkeys are doing something to the Mechimites.

Me: Which ones?

Hubert: The Russians, to the surveillance squad.

Me: Fine, I'll head down there later.

-hubert leaves-

#o -squeak-

o.O

Uh... What was that?

Okay...

#o

Hi...

#o -squeaks-

Annnnnyway, things are going well-ish. I had something I wanted to say, but I forgot... OH! I remember! Yesterday I got t– #o -squeak-

Uh... Thank you... What was I saying?


...I lost it.
#o
Oh, don't give me that innocent look. You just cost me one of my few conversation topics.

-puts slugs in a bowl in the next room-

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #o

Bye, Hedgy.

So yeah, I forgot what I was going to say. Again. I had a dream that Bro. Bishop was giving chalkboard erasing lesions.... It was weird. I liked the cornmaze one better. I found a sniper rifle and a decent side arm. Only the side arm was any good until I got to the tower. I liked the power-ups. Apparently, it was an odd game of laser tag. I got out of the maze, once. Didn't like what I found. Ran back for dear life. So... I'm bored... Oh yeah!

One more thing before I go. Last night we had a power outage and we had to reset everything. I forgot to turn on my alarm, too! I was late for seminary. -sighs- But still second of the five who were there. Sad. L was taking peoples' fingerprint's.

Glad that I cover my tracks? Oh yes... Not really, he was just seeing what they were for a class of his... I think. Bye!

-rummages through medicine cabinet-

I have a headache...

-Yawns-

-glances at old posts-

Hubert, how'd you get access to the record banks?

Hubert: The monkeys.

Me: How'd they know how to get in?

Hubert: They know everything.

Me: Right...

Okay, so I'm back now, and more or less better off. Friday was nice. R&T's Party was awesome, as usual, and there were odd worms in the punch. Gummy... Saturday was one of those productive days you don't want to do more than once. As many know, we have a dumpster here for a week, so we're cleaning. The old yellow freezer is gone now. (scary) I guess that's cool. Also, we KOed the deck big time. Sludge hammers, regular hammers, fists. That thing came down. Mom seemed a little upset, but when you think about it, it just makes it easier if we ever were thinking about a pool! (I'd still like the idea of a deck, though. Just not here. Maybe when I start having a family. LOOONG way away...) Tree forts are goood. Roofs are a good idea, though. Or drains. Both. I think the deck was taking a good deal of water damage. (it's been around a while)

Uh... Sunday was Sunday. Church was excellent. I like my teachers, especially Bro S.. Poor guy, we have a restless class. The family got together and ate a pumpkin. (stuff was inside it... o.O)

I think that's all. I've had very little time to work on the Mindweaver Project, so bear with me.

Uh... I think I need to go now. Bye!

MIA

Hubert: As you may have noticed, Renolds has been gone for a short while. While this should not yet be a concern, we still have appointed a section of the troops into looking into his possible location. Rest assured that they will have accomplished their task by Monday.


-two monkeys come in-

Hubert: You're the English ones, right? I'm telling you, I can never tell you apart.

Monkey #1: -points to badge-

Project Smokescreen:
#1014511
Intelligence department

Hubert: Okay... what's that tell me?

Monkey #2: It's in English, isn't it?

Hubert: Hmm, yes, I suppose it is. So how is our project going?

Monkey #1: We're on schedule, but there's a problem with some of the equipment.

Hubert: Okay, and what's the problem?

Monkey#1: They're lousy. We'll have to alter them.

Hubert: How much is that gonna cost us?

Monkey #2: We accept checks or bananas.

Hubert: Okay, but how much?

Monkey #2: We'll let you decide how valuable we are.

Hubert: Okay then...

-monkeys leave-

-hubert picks up phone-

Hubert: Hello, I'd like to bring up 250 bunches of bananas to the intelligence department, suits 42 and 39.

Yes, 250 each.

Yeah, preferably today.

Um... Okay. I'll be right down.

Yeah, bye. -hangs up-

Okay, I gotta run. Apparently I have to examine 500 bananas to make sure they're good. -hubert leaves-

Woot! Paper!- Wait, what'd you say???

No one got hurt??? What about the pen??? I had a 0.5 mm ballpoint pen stuck in my hand! Just kidding, it's fine, now. No permanent injuries. Ooh, maybe I'll have a blue scar... Nifty.

I finally remembered to bring paper to Seminary! XD

What was I going to say... It was vaguely important. I wonder how the wishlist thing is going... Back on track, here. Where is it... Uh... I need to whack my head against something. Our Perky little young men's group seems lame. Hopefully things will improve, soon. First off, separate patrol campouts??? Have they seen the number of boys who come??? It'd be like two people. Really fun. And so much for the older boys being examples to the little people. -shakes head- Imma go now. -glances back- @.@ Did I do that??? Hubert, could you get that?

Imma[]....I think I'll
....O/..................`O{

Thanks, Hubert.

Alright, now I go. Bye! ^^

No pens...

Getting stabbed with a pen is not fun... Here you are, doing your schoolwork. You move to put the pen cap back on, but wham! You miss the cap and stab yourself. Ink and blood don't mix. Well, they do, but they shouldn't. Thankfully I was able to squeeze it out, though. Painful process. Anyway, it's all taken care of. I organized my schoolbooks, again. The Tower of Power just gets bigger, doesn't it? I have the Satchel section, Scouts section, Church section, Random section, and a greatly expanded School section... Still, it seems to work. And only 55 centimeters by 45 centimeters of floorspace! Efficiency is gooood.

I may have to move Japanese from School to Random. It seems like a tight fit... Complicated stuff.

So uh, during Seminary (Well, before...) Bro. Bishop's car got broken into (Not the one he was driving.) Yeah, they drove off (They break into a car and have an escape vehicle?) and almost hit L and his dad. Nice maneuvering, Bro. H. Yeah, so there was some action. And it all seemed to happen right when we got there. L, Bro. Bishop, and I all got there at about the same time. Strange... L thought we should have a stakeout at the church. I mean, this isn't the first time something like this has happened. People have been going in and unlocking doors, too. -nods- Maybe a stakeout would be a good idea.

Uh... so there's been a bit of excitement today. Not the fun excitement, though. -sighs- I should be working. I have to go. Bye!

Better than expected

Well, the little educational experience wasn't that bad. (Not that it normally is.) Things are going well. Japanese and PE I need to work on, though. More logs and what not. (How do I always forget these things?) I do like the Bourne music. I have to check if the Library has them. -looks at note on wall- "Memory is like the ocean: It comes and goes like the crashing waves and erases all else from our minds. The sand of our immediate thought cannot retain our desired reminders alone, but requires other forms of record." Two choices, then. "Do it now," (My personal favorite.) or "write it down." (Also good) I'll be right back...

It has it, but I'd have to be on hold. And I can't find my library card... Unfortunate. Oh well, I'll find it later.

Um, I forgot what I was going to say..

I guess I stop here... Bye everybody!

Slooooooooow....

Darn computer is sick. It didn't even let me post Fri-Sat. -glares- Anyway, I've got a few things to say in the fifteen minutes I have before church. First, Mom sent everyone the wishlist thing, right? I updated mine, sort of. I'll have to check everyone else's every now and then. -nods-

Secondly, I went to the stake dance last night. More on that later, but suffice it to say, I had a good time.

Thirdly, I DID IT!!!!! I think.


Jason Bourne has good taste. Oi, who would have guessed it would take an hour to make a copy-ish thing of that. I like it. A lot. Another one of those things that you can stare at for a long time. So life is good.

Tomorrow the... What is he again? Well, some the person who was ES and is now something I don't know is coming. Tests and education related conversation. Yay.

I must go now. What a shame. Anyway, see ya!

Thursday, October 18, 2007

I don't like this.

I feel disinclined to talk today. Certain frustrating topics with frustrating people. I now value mimes very highly. And monks. Both can take vows of silence, never to speak again... It sounds like a decent idea.... for everyone else. Or at least something to prevent interruptions. If you don't understand something, SHUT YOUR MOUTH. Saves time.

As you can tell, I feel grumpy. -resists urge to play some game that involves violence- Definitely wouldn't help. Maybe I should take up a non-online journal... I suppose it'd be a good idea. Less people would read it and get upset. (Yes, there are plenty of hurtful things I could be saying. Not usually about relatives, but I've had my moments.) Celtic music is nice... BUT NOT FAST ENOUGH. I need to calm down. I can't work when I'm not calm. I need to work. It's in my nature. I wonder if it'd be better if I blasted it. TB thinks it's funny when I max the volume listening to Celtic music. Why are there no strawberry-related foods in the kitchen? I can't even find the yogurt...

-hits head repeatedly- This works surprisingly well.

And there's the headache... Wonderful. -turns down the Celtic music.- Ooh! I like this song! -turns it back up-

-and back down-

#º Hedgy? What's the meaning of life?

Hedgehog: º-º...

Me: Okay... Uh... Thank you.

-looks at mutilated paper- My handwriting is horrible when I lose my calmness. I need to be mellow. Otherwise I explode. -turns music down again-
. . .
>o

Yeah, I get it. We're here to gain a body, get experience, and to be tested. It's called a rhetorical question.

I'm done now, right? ...I'll take that as a yes. I hate schoolwork... Goodbye, people.

Wednesday, October 17, 2007

-says hello to the little floating speck in the sunlight-

Oh, we're on? Sorry about that. Quickly! To the comments! Miriam, I would go swimming at any temperature. -as long as the water is reasonable- You must remember, I went swimming in the snow once. It was good. (Just make sure you dry off thoroughly...) Yeah, so we could still have indoor pools, even if it was too cold. -nods- Problem solved!

In10sity is good. It's like a trivia game where the answers are numbers between one and ten. Very fun.

I here a phone call. Oh well, TB will get it. I here another one now...

So uh, I've determined that someone is trying to reach us...

It's for Sharp Shutter.



I'm bored. And my head is bugging me. Do you know how you just have that splitting head ache that lasts for about five seconds? I keep getting those today.

-whispers- I can't think of anything...

Hubert: -stops eating hot dog- What? I can't hear you.

.O>

Me -shouting-: I SAID I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING!

Hubert: Oh... Um...

}O #º

Me: Why is there a hedgehog here? o_O?

Me: Nevermind...

I got to run. Bye!

Pulsating never helped anyone!

Slooooow- Fast! Slooooow- Fast!

WHERE IS THE BALANCE??? Same with the seasons. I don't much care for them. If it was always the same, I probably wouldn't be as hot during the summer. (Not that it'd always be hot. It'd be cold.)

Uh, so anyway, I haven't posted in ages. Well, days, but still... We had a very fun-packed weekend! Busy weekend, too. -nods- He got to visit D&T! The ocean is nice. (I still like the mountains.) D&T are nice, too. And smart. Um, so Friday we packed up. (Hence me not posting. I didn't post, right? -checks- Yep, okay, so now you know.) Saturday we drove.
And drove.

And drove. But then we were there! (We were sending text messages. And using Medieval terms and speech.) They had a purple banner on their door! So then we went to the beach. Hot dogs and smores are Goooood. If only the scouts could see that... Maybe without the smores, though. They're too sticky for campouts. No sinks...

Um, then we played In10sity! Fun! And we watched movie previews! And then we went to sleep. Such wonderful sleep. (I took TB's sleeping pad after a long battle. XD I almost lost my pillow.)

Next day. Sunday. Church. At nine o'clock. Not one. Nine. Difference. But a good one! Um, I noticed an odd thing. Their ward seemed to be the complete opposite as our old one. Well, in one field. There were way more girls than guys there. Not common in our old ward. Moving on! We played more In10sity, watched a few movies (Good ones.), conversed, ate food, and once again slept. (What a wonderful thing...)

Monday did not go as planned. We were going to go to the Monterey Bay Aquarium, but uh... We got distracted. We found a park! A park of dreams that was made of awesome! ...And hills and sand and metal and stuff... And spongy ground! And bridges. We stayed there a while. Then spent about two hours at the Aquarium. Then we went home. That is all.

Not really, there's a lot more, but that'll wait until tomorrow! -waves-

Pink shirts

Hmm, I guess you might be De. The only thing I didn't get was your name-ish-thing was in all lower-case. Then again, surprisingly good grammar for most random people online... And Blogger does strange things with comments sometimes... And De does wear pink a lot. Yeah, you're De. GitPS takes so long to type, though... Hmm... Maybe Pink. Pink is easy. It sort of fits... So let's just go over what we've got.

Mom (She doesn't need much a nickname, right? How many moms are there in the world?)
An Towel boy
Jo Sharp shutter
De Pink (It needs something more. But what?)
Hmm... What's a good name for Ru? Stamper is too... Obvious? Something more original...
To So many names...
Es I guess I'll get back to these two...
Ja
Mi... I know what De would suggest, but I doubt M would be happy about it.
Da Something tall...
Te Something purple?
Sa Vancouver? Not nearly original enough...
Ry Too many relatives...
Ac Must think of names...
Au So many names...

Okay... Lots of open spaces here. Any suggestions? No aquariums... Sorry.

Why must I always go? -sighs- Bye!

WAIT! THE ACTIVITY! Alright, so last night was... interesting. It was one of those 'get to know each other' sort of things. Fun, lot's of games, and rootbeer floats. Well, and dueling and leprechaun hunting... So it was nice.

Now I'm gone! -looks at mirror and screams- My head... It is missing...

Wednesday, October 10, 2007

Wow...

One hundred posts as of yesterday... I guess it's not all that surprising. Anyway, a few quick things before I struggle to think of something to say:

Hi there, person I've never seen before. I had no idea anyone other than immediate relatives even saw this... Um, to answer your question, I know Supremacy does. I'm not sure about Identity, and I'm not sure if Ultimatum is even out yet. I think they sell the song separately, though... Somewhere... Where did I see that? -looks through computer history-

Hmm, I can't find it. Amazon might have it, or iTunes. Somewhere like that. So yeah, I hope that helps. After reading it over, it looks like random rambling... Do all my posts look like that? I guess they do... Even the stories are random... I like the grass one. I should edit it a bit more, now that I don't have a deadline for it to be turned in. Give it an actual ending, instead of a half hour scribbled out conclusion...

So, yeah. De was great. Played with me when I was young, took care of me when I was younger.

Um, is that it for comments? I think so.

Activity! Sort of. It's a meet and greet kind of thing. Youth from the new ward are meeting at 7:30. Get to know everyone. Find out how large a troop we might have for scouts now. And try to convince more people that I'm not related to my brother. He's bringing his towel again... And the superman shirt... Jake Renolds, don't fail me now. I look like a Jacob, don't I? I could pull it off. -nods- Hmm, they might have little nametags... -glares at the idea- Maybe they won't.

I think that's it, so without further adieu, I vanish.

Tuesday, October 9, 2007

Wow. I have a lot to say, for once. Weekends...

Alright, maybe I'll start with the most recent one and move back.

You never really understand relationships you have with people until you find that they are slightly farther off. Mom just sent me an e-mail from De's blog (Nicknames... I need them.). Almost made me cry. It always surprises me how much she kept from before. Some, I'm not even sure how she kept them. (How does one save an instant message conversation?) I mean, I still like her and I remember a lot of the good times we had, but now that I don't see her as often, they seem so much harder to bring back. (I'm losing my memory already...) Whenever I see her, I feel happy, like some of times we shared are coming back. I only wish that I could have cherished those times more. (When you're young, you don't really appreciate things as much as you could.) I guess what I'm trying to say is thank you. Not to put down my other siblings. I like them, too, but like she said, we've always been close. (Could it be that I was the youngest boy in the family and she was the youngest girl?)

It occurs to me that I'm not nearly as good at writing emotional things as she is... I need practice.

Okay, next on the list of subjects. (Slightly abrupt, I know, but there was a short time between this and the previous topic.)

I got the Bourne supremacy soundtrack yesterday. AWESOMENESS! I like it. Also, yesterday included mom and the boys going shopping for new mattresses. Curious thing, shopping for mattresses... There's a lot of lying down involved... O_o So yeah, that was... interesting. Pretty comfy, though. -nods- I fell asleep on the couch so I slept for about half an hour on the new one. A nice half hour, but interrupted by the alarm clock. -glares- I feel a bit more awake though. -decides not to mention that I blacked out at 9:30- So early... I'm used to around eleven or so. So...

Conference! Awesome, as usual. Our family continued a good deal of our traditions. Such wonderful traditions... Most of you know them. I took notes! (For seminary and personal reasons.) I loved this one talk that mentioned a street sign.

Easy st.


Dead
End

Very good. ^^

Alright, so next would be... Nothing? I think so... What happened Friday? Oh yes, I love the Bourne music. One of those kinds of things that keep you awake while driving. (You can see why I like listening to it.)

So, I guess this is it. Bye! -needs to work on schoolwork-

Thursday, October 4, 2007

The story is still in progress

I haven't forgotten about it yet. I just haven't had much time to work on it. I'll try to get the next installment up soon, though, so don't worry.

Also, never try using a picture a camera phone took to show off a cool thing on a wall. BAD quality. By the time it was on the computer, it was lousy. No good for something so awesome. I'll see if I can make a better replica. (When I have time. So maybe never.)

Um... Yeah, life is good. Konnichi Wa, minasan! Ogenki desu ka.

Translation: Good day, everyone. How are you?

I think. I'm not sure if I spelled those right. I think so, but it's hard to tell, seeing as how spell checker doesn't have other languages.

So... I might be dropping off here. Fans are nice.

Oh yeah, Seminary was less than full today; three people. Yep. L, Ri, and me. Maybe people were avoiding test day... (How could they???)

Hmm, I telemarketer just called. Decent this time. Actually a human. And understandable, no less. Anyway, I better be off. Things to do, people to frame- I mean meet. Bye!

Wednesday, October 3, 2007

The Professor rocks.

Sure, he didn't beat Bourne, but neither did anyone else. And this guy has a trench coat, biker gloves, a silencer, automatic sniper rifle, and a decent scope. And glasses! The only real reason he didn't get Bourne was because The guy was hiding did he try to hide from the other guys? No. So really, he's pretty good. (Hmm, okay, he does run sometimes, but that's not the point.) And this guy seemed like he didn't like working with Treadstone, although, who would?

So back to the picture. It isn't really as good ar the movie. Like, really not as good, but I couldn't figure out how to do it right. It was on the wall of Jason's house in the first movie. You see it in the study during the fight with Castel/Pen Guy. Yeah.

What was I going to type? Something good, but what??? (this always happens)

-looks for picture of Professor- That guy is awesome.

So uh, I think I have to go now. I run late a lot. -nods and waves-

Tuesday, October 2, 2007

Awesome Bourne Identity thing

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
So, I was watching the first Bourne movie, and I saw this awesome art thing on the wall! (Well, it's sort of like that. I had to make it in a rush. The one in the movie is way better.) So it isn't exactly the same, but it's the basic shape-ish- thing.

I dunno. I liked it.

So yeah, other than that, I don't have much to say. (I spent most of my blog time making the image.)

I have to go now. Bye! (If I remember anything, I'll think about posting.)

Monday, October 1, 2007

-yawns- Sunburns are nasty.

I don't like the idea of them.

Anyway, I'm back. Obviously. Yeah, Scout Expo was nice. You drown, then you burn. What a deal. Here we are, setting up our tents. Maybe it's a little windy, but nothing too bad. Five seconds later. Cloudburst, gusts of wind, muddy ground. (they burnt the fields) So yeah, we took cover in our L's tent and the R family tent. Except for A and Bro. K (it is K, right?). They ran for the cars. So L and J were in L's tent and Bro. S, T, D, and I were in ours. Don't worry, Bro. S left when the rain stopped. He set up his own tent. -nods- It wasn't all that bad once we all changed into dry clothes and got into the tents. The next day was fun. Lots of things to do. And since I had created every protection I could around my pack, I couldn't get my sunscreen. I got burnt. -_- So yeah, pretty good.

Perkins Ward is HUGE. This is the first place I've seen where we've had too many young men for the sacrament. Loads of people... So that's nice. I miss the old building though. Mostly the stairs. Shortcuts were in abundance. Now you just run in circles...

Uh... I think that's it. I might add more later.

Uh... Bye!
