    Four Years

    By Ektris,

    I have now been a member of BZPower for four years. Pretty odd that I joined so close to the anniversary, no? Weeell, not really. I do believe from what little memory I have of this time four years ago (I've always been bad at remembering things other than facts...), I not only joined because I had been visiting BZP for so long, but 'cause there was a giveaway for the anniversary. And I soooo wanted to win.
     
    But, I've nearly forgotten about that. The only time I even think about it is when asked why I joined, or it approaches this day... Now if only that spinny were yellow.

    Dirt Dos

    By Ektris,

    Well, before we talk about dirt, no, I don't have an ear infection. Too bad, too, 'cause I could've evaded work for one more day...

    It's my dad's last day with the bobcat, lest he can persuade the dude he's borrowing it from keep it a tad longer. And after nearly a week, there's someothing for me to do. I mean, what're you supposed to do after you have mounds of dirt just laying there? You flatten them, of course. But it's still really loose, no? Well, that's where I'll be coming in. I'll be runnin' a small - but heavy - roller all over it to pack it down. *Sarcasm alert. Sarcasm. Aaaalert.* Gee, won't that be fun? *Oh my gosh end sarcasm.*

    Seal

    By Ektris,

    Wow, I'm pretty late for the party, huh? Ah well. I was bored and just wanted to do something. Yeah, it was made in Paint, oh well. Yeah, I'm gonna go give this out to everybody and hopefully respark the fad from... What was it, like a week or two ago?
     

     
    EDIT: ~KDT~ made me this totally awesome new seal.
     

     
    When I do give one out, I'll be choosin' one of these based on how awesome the entry is.
     
    Still, doesn't seem as if the fad's really back.
     
    Oh, and thanks a ton, KDT.

    Baseball

    By Ektris,

    So I just got back from this interntaional local baseball thingie. Yeah.
     
    I had a pretty good time, but I can't really comment on the baseball. I watched only about two minutes of it. For four hours I just walked around the field or did stupid stuff with some buddies. Well, I shouldn't say four hours. More like three. Most of the first was spent walking around town with my sis and a friend while we waited for other people to come.
     
    Then, after those four hours, was a fireworks show. It was pretty sweet, being fireworks and all, but I can't say I was too interested in that either. Once you've seen one fireworks show, you've seen 'em all.
     
    Did I mention I got free food 'cause my mom was volunteering in the concession stand?
     
    And now I'm tired and my ear's killing me (I really hope it's not infected, but I'm fairly certain it is. We'll see tomorrow.) I'm goin' to go read some HP for a half hour, then watch Bleach, and go to bed...

    Harry Potter 7

    By Ektris,

    I, too, have just recently purchased Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. And the first thing I did was read the last page. Not because I'm one of those nuts who wants to know the ending before all else - quite the contrary, actually - but because I wished to check on the accuracy of the leaked information which I was so unfortunate to see.
     
    I'm greatly upset right now.

    Brickshelf

    By Ektris,

    First of all, you can still be a free member on it. This seems to be a common misconception already. People are seeing the "pay" portion of the message and then stop reading, or simply pass over the part where it says there will be no change for free users.
     
    *ahem*
     
    Now, I will not be paying for these "enhanced features." No, five dollars is not that much. No, sixty dollars is not that much provided you make an income. I, obviously, do not. But, that is not why. It's because paying that much money to simply put your images on the internet is... Well, it's rather stupid and quite ridiculous.
     
    I blame all of the LUGNET users who said they'd pay to use it. Yeah, I was keepin' watch over there when Brickshelf went down, and nearly everyone of them said they'd pay. Fools... And I do believe Kevin's just trying to get money. Besides, the small number of LUGNET users aside (Whom I believe are the only people Kevin even acknowledges. So annoying.), most of Brickshelf's users are kids. THEY DON'T HAVE MONEY TO PAY FOR THIS. It just irritates me.

    Dirt

    By Ektris,

    Well, it does appear as if I won't actually be doing any work outside today. Sans fixing the rope on the flagpole. But beside that, nothing.
     
    We came to the conclusion on Wednesday that I'd just be in the way because there'd be nothing for me to do. And that's still true today. And though I'm glad I'm evading work, I also want to help out... Ah well. Maybe something will come up tomorrow or Sunday.

    Heh. I'm goin' to make the most of this blog... But to anyone actually reading this, I'll pretty much be down to one entry a day next week. Maybe two if I sneak one in in the morning. Band camp starts next week. Ten hours, five days... I wouldn't really care if it weren't for my toe still hurting. I really hope now the pain goes away by Monday.

    Welcome Back

    By Ektris,

    Welcome back to my blog, all you readers. That is, for those of you who know I had one this time last year... Regardless, welcome.
     
    I just deleted everything that was in my blog. Absolutely everything. But, I've already begun rebuilding, as evidenced by my content blocks over to the left. (By the way, though I'll have this but for a week, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated in the comments section.)
     
    And right now. I'm tired. I just woke up. And I'm not looking forward to the rest of the day. I did something to my big toe last night at tae kwon do, and now it hurts to move it. I'm pretty sure it's not broken because the pain would be a lot worse. But, I'll probably end up working outside today as my dad moves a lot of dirt around in the yard to cover this spot where my late great grandmother's trailer sat. Of course, when he did it Wednesday (You see, we couldn't do it yesterday due to rain), there was nothing I could do. I hope it's the same way today.
