Good Riddance, February. Hello, March.

It’s been a little more than 4 weeks since my last blog post. Want to know what have I been doing with myself?
Well, mostly I’ve been sick:

Week One: Hey there, Sunday! Hey there, sore throat and coughing! I guess I caught a cold. Ah well, I’ll be fine.
Week Two: Coughing, coughing, and more coughing. I [...]

336. A Failure and A Success (In One Tidy Package)

I failed at everyday blogging. I think I’ll still try for “much more frequently than previously” blogging.
I succeeded in fixing my church’s internet.

337. 28 Sit-ups

I am five feet three inches tall. From the age of 18 to 25, my average weight was 95 lbs. Not healthy, not good.

It passed the Assembly and just got out of committee on its way to the full Senate.
HOORAY NJ!
Disclaimer: I was raised in New Jersey. I lived there from my birth until I was 16 years old. I believe [...]

340. Does A Double-Post Day Make Up For Missing One?

I love XKCD (an online comic):

341. Missed A Day

I just flat out forgot about blogging yesterday.
It was a “hide away from the world” day, anyway.

342. Blah

My brain is addled from doing taxes and homework all day.
Andrew made an amazing beef stir-fry for dinner.
I haven’t watched SportsCenter in 3 days. (I keep catching the X Games and college basketball. I’m not a fan of either.)

343. Finally

It’s here.
