Unlike Bagel over at RationReality, my blog absence isn’t the result of sickness and depression, but of a rather sinister combination of finals, moving, and lack of an Internet connection. That last bit may cause some people to call me a liar and accuse me of avoiding my blog because I’m in a creative slump and couldn’t come up with a blog post if I was being held hostage in front of a computer and told that for every minute I stalled an innocent kitten would be denied fame on ICHC. Those people are wrong. In reality, I’m leeching wireless off of some poor schlob who couldn’t be bothered to change the default name of their wireless network, much less put a password on it. It’s a poor connection, and I’m busy with packing and moving, so I’m only connecting for long enough to post this and browse through Reddit for some laughs.
I suppose it’d be useful to explain why I don’t have an Internet connection. My family is in the process of moving into a house closer to town (okay, in town). Unfortunately, utilities like television, phone, and Internet service aren’t due to be hooked up until the 20th. Until then, I’ll be spending my time watching Farscape on my laptop and playing Mass Effect. Well, during the time that isn’t spent packing up my entire life and moving it to a smaller house. Fun.
And the month isn’t even half over. In about a week, I’ll be starting my summer job with the county (working for Parks and Rec). Exciting, huh? Yeah, not really. I’m going to be one busy guy, but I’ll be sure to make time for a rant every so often. After all, this isn’t the Mad Silence of a Raving Genius, is it?

This is my life philosophy.
This is the week of death and misery and nasty things that hide under your bed. I’ll see if I can summarize it for you:
Today – Bowling at 6:30
Tues – Marching practice 2:30-4; dinner at Grandma’s; youth group at 6:30 (no bowling practice thankfully)
Wed – Basketball game at 6:30
Thurs – Marching practice 2:30-4; bowling practice 4:45-5:45
Fri – Basketball game at 6:30
Sat – Bowling game at 1:20, parade at 3:00
And who knows what else may crop up. I had been planning to take Lindsay bowling or something (heh, as if I need more bowling), but it doesn’t look like I have much free time. I suppose if I really wanted to, I could skip the Friday game…I dunno. This just isn’t a good week to have a social life. But at least I finished my UW application! *dances*

I need to get a life. I’m currently wallowing in self-pity. Wait! What’s that noise? There’s someone at the door! *gets up to answer door* Sweet! It’s my specially-ordered Life with a bonus Self-Pity Exterminator attachment! *does the happy dance*
I’m such a dork.

The opening night of senior-directed one acts was a success!!! That was last night. Tonight’s the closing night. Hopefully two things will go better than last night namely 1) Mike doesn’t forget his lines, and 2) the video tape won’t run out at the very end cutting off a bunch of the last play. Oh well, ya live ya learn. Today the band had a hot dog cooking fundraiser thingamajig and during the time I was there, we sold a lot of hot dogs to a small number of people. It was cold! When I woke up this morning at nine, it was 31 degrees out. It’s 43 right now. Baker opens on Sunday (not that I’ll be going skiing anytime soon). What else interesting and slightly odd happened today or yesterday….nothing! How about that? Join Hi5! It’s cool! Cool people sign up to Hi5! Like me! So if you’re my friend (wink wink nudge nudge) go here http://www.hi5.com/i?l=2KCPEYT and sign up! (Future Cody’s note: please don’t.) Well, now I’m off to continue writing stories about things blowing up, cleaning my WSU hat, and saying “fascinating” in a thoroughly Spock-like way.
