How do you pronounce the weekdays? Do you say them with an "eeee" at the end? My grandparents do that sometimes. Sundee, Mondee, Tuesdee, etc. I always say it with the "ay" on the end (like normal). Doesn't really matter how you say it, just curious.
So did anybody save TONS of money during tax-free weekend? Yeah, I thought not.
The weekend seemed much longer this time! Really, we went to a hotel Friday night (provided by our wonderful friends James & Lynne (for our birthdays)). Saturday we went shopping (with money from melissa's dad, not me). That was fun, and then last night we hung out with James and Lynne again, and it just seemed like a much longer weekend than usual. I thought about looking through the news on Yahoo to find something to make fun of, but some of my readers have said that I sound too sarcastic. Maybe i'll put up a poll about it, and see how many of you really feel that way. Maybe I don't really care what you think. No, I do. That's why I do this blog, right? No, not really. I just wanted a place to put down my thoughts, and maybe interact with my friends, relatives, distant acquaintances... It works, right? I mean, it's a whole lot easier for me to manage than Myspace or Facebook. They just seem like a hassle. So many options to keep track of, and really when you think about it, they're just a waaaay too fancy email service. People leave you messages, you leave them messages....email. This, well this is just something I do because I can, and if nobody ever responds, that's ok, and if people do respond, I don't have to respond back! It's great. You should try it, and if you do, let me know your URL, and I'll check it out.
Have you ever wondered about all the memories and information that will be lost when the current generation of "old people" die? By old, I'm referring to people 70 and older. Once you hit that age, there's really no telling how long you have left. Not trying to be morbid, just explaining my terminology. But seriously, you'd have to be at least 80 to remember WW2, and 90 to really remember the Great Depression. What will we do when those first-hand accounts have been silenced? Another generation of history will be gone forever. It's really sad, but it really makes me want to record as many stories as I can so we have something other than history books to rely on. I remember quite a few that my grandfather has told me, but I want to get as many as possible so I can tell my grandchildren.
Well, it's time for lunch, I'll ttyl,

-And yes, you are right: We will have many untold stories with our dying generation. With any generation you have that. And it sucks. But yeah.
