We, um, “acquired” a McCain-Palin yard sign on Saturday night. We then used said sign in a series of photos involving an assault rifle, a chain of bullets, and a blow-up doll named Sarah Jessica Porkher. A carton of chocolate milk and a synthetic beard and wig also played supporting roles. Overall, it was a [...]

Summer proceeds, though in smaller chunks than desired. Working five days a week is a bummer, especially when those five days include Friday night, all day Saturday, and all day Sunday. Nevertheless, being trapped inside for five days of the week makes me appreciate all the more those few days off, and soon after waking [...]
Since we hadn’t opened our pool in a few summers, we decided to take it down. Or, well, my dad and I decided to take it down. My mom was a bit less enthusiastic, since she tended to use it a lot.

I woke up to a beautiful snowstorm, the kind with the heavy, wet snow that sticks to everything and makes all the tree branches sag until they touch the ground. The flakes were big [...]
I’m pretty tired so I’m just going to go on in random and non-connected sentences. I’ve got less than a week until I’m back at Wesleyan. Today I sorted a bunch of things out and made a sort-of action plan for the rest of the week. I’m working with my dad for at least two [...]

So today, I walked on water. Across the entire length of a pond full of water. I also took some decent photos with my iPhone while walking on said water. Full details will be forthcoming tomorrow, because I’ve been awake for over 23 consecutive hours and it’s time for bed, at 7:00 PM.
