First of all, if any of you knew/knows anyone who passed or was injured or even survived through 9/11, my thoughts are with you today. And now, because I never know how to segue out of something like that without sounding insensitive but also without dwelling on sadness for too long, I'm just going to go to the next topic which is that it's official: computers hate me. You all know how my...
Well, it's been another uneventful week for me in "real life." But uneventful is better than bad, so that's ok. Let's see, what else... Did you all know that you can "shuffle" and "repeat" playlists on YouTube? I did not. I want to assume it's a new feature just so I don't feel like such an unobservant idiot, but I don't think it is lol. I listen to a lot of playlists on YouTube though, so that...
I don't even know what to talk about this week. I spent my last two weekly updates talking about gymnastics, and now I got nothin'. No, really, that's it for the intro lol. You may proceed to the bookish stuff...
Time for more gymnastics updates! And let me tell you, the event finals were SO AWESOME. I won't go through everything or list every winner though, I'll just tell you my favorite parts. I've never seen a gymnastics competition as emotional as the men's floor finals. I couldn't even be upset that the US didn't medal because those guys who did (Max Whitlock of Great Britain, Diego Hypolito and...
Forget "real life" today, let's talk Olympics! For anyone who hasn't been watching the gymnastics, I'll fill you in. There were two injuries last week, which was unfortunate. A French male gymnast fractured his leg in two places on vault during the trials and couldn't compete (which is just heartbreaking), and a British female gymnast fell on her head on floor during the trials but managed to do...
Wow, I actually don't have anything "real life" to talk about this week. Oh! The Olympics have officially started, so that's something. I have to admit I didn't bother watching the opening ceremonies, but I'll definitely be watching the gymnastics :-) It's not often I actually get to watch gymnastics on TV, so the Olympics is a very exciting time for me lol. Other than that, as I said, nothing to...
I didn't have the best week. I had more electronics trouble that I'm not even gonna get into because I'm so damn tired of talking about electronics trouble. Then I spent hours one day waiting for a package to come only to realize something went wrong when I ordered it and it was sent to where I used to live, so I had to drive over there to get it -_- I also had an awful headache one night, one of...
Alright, guys, I'm going on a bit of a tangent today because I didn't want to make a whole post just for this considering it's not even remotely related to books and have instead decided to just include it in this post. So... I have a new theory about electronics. It seems like the worse I treat my electronics, the longer they last, so my theory is that you have to toughen them up when they're...
Sorry if I took a little while to respond to comments or comment on anyone else's blog this week. It's been kind of a stressful, tiring, hot week. My AC stopped working properly on Monday and just started blowing room temperature air around my apartment instead of actually cooling anything. And since the room temperature ended up at about 85 degrees, well, you can imagine how useful that was. I...
Guess what, everyone... My blog is a year old! Yay, happy blogiversary to me :-) But I'll talk a bit more about that below. I do have a few real life things to mention. First of all, I've still been drinking kombucha since it's good for me, even if it's not giving me the energy boost I originally thought it was, and I have a word of advice: Never---I mean NEVER---try blue-green algae kombucha....
