My Latest Frustration

Most of us are familiar with the exercise in giving/following directions in which you are paired up and then asked to write down directions to do something very ordinary like make a PB&J sandwich. You then trade directions and you have to do exactly what it says, you are not allowed to do anything that it does not say, and you have to do everything listed in the exact order it's listed. Many people forget such simple steps as remove the lid from the jelly before spreading it on the bread. Thus, you have to put the entire jar of jelly on the slice of bread and have to attempt to spread the jar around with the knife.

I bring this up merely as an example of the consequences of poor communication. My latest frustration is particularly regarding girls trying to communicate with boys. Girls tend to try to hint at what they want from us. This does not work! If you want to be miserable while waiting for said guy to figure whatever it is out, that's your business. However, I am a guy, and from my experience, most of us would much prefer you telling us straight.

I was just informed by a third party that a certain girl has been hinting something at me for about 4 months. Much grief and annoyance on the part of both parties involved would have been saved if she had just told me. Girls, hints don't work. "Give it up, you can't win!"-Andrew from StarFox64.

Sad Day...

Jeff is selling his motorcycle. Combined with Kevin's getting totaled last year, that means that our motorcycle gang is officially dead. I got to ride Jeff's motorcycle for the last time today. It was awesome, but sad. Anyway, that is all.

Well...

I was camping this weekend on Antelope Island in a teepee. It was raining and windy. For those of you that don't know, teepees have a hole at the top, and the canvas doesn't necessarily go all the way to the ground. It was rather miserable. Anyway, the point of this post is that I've missed so many days and most days that I have posted, I haven't said anything worth saying. So, I basically quit. I'll continue to blog, but only when I actually have something to say.

Advice

Hey, I'm not really feeling it today, so I'm just going to leave you with this little bit of advice from Ali G:
"Crime isn't something you should do, it's something you should don't."

Bowling is Awesome

Hey, everybody! I just am way excited about last night and feel like sharing here. Last night I bowled in a little doubles tournament. I bowled extremely well. My first game was 233, followed by a 265. I finished with a 203 for a three game series score of 701. I have been bowling seriously for a little over two years and I finally broke 700! Also, 265 tied my highest game ever. Now, to the best part. I paid 22 dollars to enter this tournament, and I won 14 for the second game, and 5 for the third. I also had the highest handicap series with a 767 that won me 10 bucks. That means that I won a total of 29 dollars, which is seven dollars of profit. I'm way stoked. Catch ya all later (...as in tomorrow...)

Man Down! (actually the internet...)

Hey all, sorry that I haven't posted anything the last two days. The internet at my house has been and continues to be down. So, I haven't been able to post. However, on the whole, the internet being down at my house has been a good thing for my whole family. Instead of wasting countless hours on Facebook or playing dumb games, we have spent more time together as well as pursuing other activities that are way more worth our time.

Honestly, I wish that life could be this simple all of the time. For once, instead of getting up and sitting on Facebook for a few hours while procrastinating my chores and such. I got up and got them all done as well as a few things that my mom hadn't asked me to do. Anyway, my verdict is that the internet, even though it has improved so much and has many benefits, is mostly a waste of time, at least for me. Catch ya later. (...as in when my internet gets fixed...)
