Time of post: 12:10 AM

Hey everyone. I'm finally back. After a 6 hour drive (5 hours of which I slept), I made it back to my house at around 4 PM. I must say, it feels great to be home again. Maine, while it is peaceful, is pretty boring after you've been there once (and this was like my 12th time).

I did have a good time though. It was Andrew, his friend Scott, and me for the week mostly hanging out in the basement. We did go in the lake while it was warm and even took the jet ski out for while. Scott and I ended up canoeing (that's taking the canoe out if you didn't catch my made-up word. to an island too.

As I said though, it did get pretty boring. Much DS playing was done as well as a few games of Monopoly. Overall, it was a good trip though.

Anyway, that's about it for today. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Hey everyone. Today has been pretty good. A little less eventful (though that's not a bad thing) than the rest of the week.

I woke up and just sort of hung out around the house for a while. I later went to my grandmother's house with my mom and brother where we played Uno for a while. We played one round for like an hour - it just didn't end.

Then, I came home and played Guild Wars for like a half hour. My dad came up and it turned out we were going to check out a place he found where there were go-kart races and things like that. It was about an hour away and when we got there, we found out they were closed due to rain (though we sort of figured that would be the case anyway).

So, we turned around and ended up going to Friendly's for dinner. I had a sandwich and it was actually really good.

And in bigger news, I actually got around to a bunch of sites today for the first time in a while. Anyone who updated before I left anyway. Hopefully, I'll be able to keep it up... when I get back.

Yeah, I'm leaving for Maine on Sunday for a week. Unless Sprint decided to extend their coverage into Maine (and the middle of nowhere), I won't have internet access until next Saturday.

So, that's about it for today. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Hey everyone. Today was pretty fun. When we woke up, Jesse and I went to a local restaurant to pick up some General Tso's chicken (remember, Thursday special equals $5 for a normally $15 meal). So, that was really good.

We went to his house to pick up a movie to return to Blockbuster so we could get a new one but ended up watching that one anyway. It was the Pacifier. I still can't believe Vin Diesel took that movie. It wasn't too bad though.

Then, we played more Guild Wars (hehe, what a surprise right?). We played for a while. And then left to go see War of the Worlds with my dad and brother. It was a good movie though there's one thing I still don't understand. Spoiler (highlight to read): How did Robbie survive that explosion?! It just doesn't make any sense at all. If they were going to keep him alive at the end, they should have at least explained how he survived. It was a fun movie to watch though.

And that's pretty much the whole day. Sorry once again for not making it to sites. I'm trying but I get distracted pretty easily. Anyway, have a great day!

Hey everyone. Okay, so another night of Guild Wars led to a late post again. Jesse slept here last night and we played for a while. We made it to a big turning point in the game though so that's good.

Let's see, when I woke up, I went over to Jesse's. I can't really remember what we did though for some reason.

Anyway, we ended up back at my house for dinner and ended up playing Guild Wars forever.

That's really about it. Have a great day!

Hey everyone. I'm getting way to obsessed with Guild Wars but oh well, it's something to do. So, on that note, I apologize in advance for not being here to comment. I'll try to get on when I have some free time though.

Anyway, today, Jesse and I went to go get Guild Wars for him so now we're both playing. We also ended up going to Blockbuster to get Oceans 12 and stopped at Burger King for lunch. Oceans 12 was actually pretty good.

Anyway, that's about all for today. Sorry again for the lack of comments. Have a great day!

Hey everyone. Guild Wars sort of threw off my midnight posting last night. Hehe, I ended up playing from like 11:30 to 5 AM yesterday without even realizing it. It was fun though and I ended up playing with a couple of OtakuBoards members.

Anyway, to start the day, I went to Jesse's for a while. Instead of our usual round of pool though, we played ping-pong (because the ping-pong table is four planks that are put on top of the pool table and we didn't know if we could take them down). I hadn't played ping-pong in like 2 years so that was interesting.

I don't think we really did much else yesterday though. I did get Jesse hooked on Guild Wars so he's going to buy it in about 20 minutes. Other than that though, we just sort of sat around.

So, that's about it for now. Have a great day!

Hey everyone. Not so much to report today. Most of it was spent playing Guild Wars. I'm really liking this game a lot.

Other than that, I really didn't do much at all. I just sort of sat around and watched TV for a little while. I should have been on here commenting but I didn't think of it at the time. Sorry...

That's really about all I have for tonight so it's a nice short post ^_^ Have a great day!

Hey everyone. Sorry I'm late. I've been having some internet problems that I won't go into. Just know that if all goes well, it should be fixed tomorrow. Luckily, I have the laptop though so I can still post and get online.

Anyway, today was actually pretty good. I had to wake up after not much sleep to go help set up for the garage sale. After I got up, it wasn't too bad though. The only downside to the sale was that it was really hot.

I found ways to keep myself occupied though. Jesse and Andrew came over. Andrew just felt like coming buy and Jesse was selling stuff. I ended up bringing out the magnifying glass again to burn a hole through a cardboard box. This time though, there were actually flames after a couple minutes. Good thing there was a hose near by ^_^

After the garage sale was over, Andrew and Jesse had to leave to go do whatever they said they were doing. I hung out in the house for a while just waiting to leave for dinner. I hadn't eaten anything at all at this point (and it was approaching 7 PM) so I was getting pretty hungry. We went to Applebees for dinner and it was good. I had chicken fingers for the first time in a while.

Then, after that, we went to Gamestop and I picked up Guild Wars for the PC. I've heard a lot about it and read a bunch of good stuff on OtakuBoards so I figured I'd get it. Hopefully, I'll get to start it tomorrow.

Well, that's about all for tonight. Thanks for reading and for all of the comments! Have a great day!

Hey everyone. Today was pretty fun. It started out kind of slow. I woke up and did nothing for a little while. Then, Andrew called.

He came over with some Genesis games that he was giving me. Just before that, he bought all of a friend's Genesis games and had a few doubles so he gave me those. Anyway, we hooked up the Genesis (Sega in case you're confused) and played that for a while.

We stopped that and went downstairs (the Genesis is in the attic right now). It was really bright out and I found a magnifying glass and got curious. I wanted to see if you really could melt things with a magnifying glass and the sun. So, we went outside. I found a close to empty box of matches on the back steps so we tried those first. I was actually able to make the match light with just the magnifying glass.

After that, I wanted to try it on a little plastic army man. I didn't have any though so I used the next best thing - a green plastic cap (the kind you'd find on a spray paint can. Anyway, after a little while (waiting for clouds to pass), I ended up melting a hole straight through the top of the cap. I guess that proves it can be done ^_^

Then, we went inside and watched Star Wars Episode V. I hadn't seen it in a really long time so that was fun. Now, one more to watch and I've seen them all straight through in order from Episode I.

Then, we got some dinner when my dad got home - Chinese food. Finally, we played some Halo 2 campaign until he left. And that was the whole day.

Well, that's about it. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

P.S. Sorry for the lack of comments today. As you can see, I didn't have much time.

Hey everyone. Today was surprisingly better than I thought it would be (bordem-wise). I woke up and Jesse and I went to a local restaurant to get some General Tso's Chicken. Usually, it's $15 from this place but on Thursdays, it's a special for $4.95 ^_^ And it's really good. So yeah, that was a great way to start the day.

Then, we played a little Halo 2. I finally got my Team Preview rank back up to 10! We stopped and ended up going to his house.

There, we played a few games of pool. We later ended up just hanging out listening to music for a while after that.

Finally, we came back to my house to watch Oceans Eleven. I forgot how good that movie was. I was also surprised how much of it I didn't remember.

That's pretty much my day. Thanks for reading and have a great day!
