Happy Birth­day, Grandma Miles!

Script Frenzy! You remem­ber my lat­est attempt at <a href=“http://nanowrimo.org title=“National Novel Writ­ing Month”>NaNoWriMo? Well, now I’m even less into Script Frenzy. If you want, this is the project I’m work­ing on: http://pc.celtx.com/project/u7O7lM5FF03m. If I ever get around to actu­ally writ­ing some­thing, maybe I’ll put more about it up here.

Last week­end I went to Okoboji to visit Holli and to hang with some of her camp friends. I took these pic­tures, here. We watched Arrested Devel­op­ment. We played a game called Mafia, where Holli was killed one night. My catch phrase for the rest of that game was this post’s title.

Also, we ate at The Wharf The Wharf The Wharf The Wharf The (ask Holli about the name) and Luke was telling a story, which began with, “Ok. The earth is round.” I quickly responded with “Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on a minute. You just blew my mind.” A phrase which I have found suc­cess with in other venues.

Dur­ing the week, Holly and Bob came over. We dis­cussed the film­ing of their wed­ding a bit. We were even able to get into the church to look around. Then we came back, had some ice cream, and played Burnout Revenge. We played the game where you have to cause a cer­tain mon­e­tary amount of dam­age by crash­ing your car. We played one level where there is a large donut on a diner. It was a night­mare. We spent nearly forty min­utes on it before all three of us had caused the nec­es­sary amount of damage.

The sum­mer is bor­ing. Now that I have all this time to write, I’m in the dol­drums. The prob­lem is that I usu­ally can’t go to bed unless I feel I’ve earned it. Of course, just work­ing in the office all day doesn’t count. I have to do some­thing worth­while in my off time. So, if I just come home, surf the ‘net, and watch TV, then I can’t sleep. I have to watch TV or read until late to qual­ify for rest, and then I’m tired.

How is every­one else’s sum­mer going so far?
