Then End....(of catching up)

I can't believe tomorrow's already Monday. It seems like my weekend went by so quickly. Oh wait. It did.
   You see yesterday was my cross country team's first meet. It was in Mobridge which is like an hour and a half drive away, and the meet started at 10:00 A.M. So we had to leave Aberdeen at 6:00. I had to be at the high-school at 5:45 which meant that I had to leave my house at 5:15. Which in turn meant that I had to wake up at 4:45 A.-(stinking)-M.  :P . Nah it wasn't that bad, even though I slept past my alarm by like ten minutes. AnyHugh (don't ask who Hugh is cause I couldn't tell you), we were on the way to Mobridge when we came to a road closed sign. So we had to take a detour. and after driving a ways out of our way, we arrived at the meet. And I didn't even run! See, I had to get in 10 practices before my first meet in order to run. I only had eight. So I just went to watch and help my coach with timing and stuff. 
   Our team tied for second, and our best runner got 4th in the varsity race. Our second best runner dropped out of the race cause he couldn't breath, so we only had four out of our five. It was still fun, though tiring. On the way back to Aberdeen two of my team-mates were 'fighting' almost the whole way, so I couldn't sleep. We got home around 4 I think. So that's how that day went by unnaturally fast. Then today, since I hardly got any sleep on Friday I slept till noon. Yeah kind of a fail, but I was tired what can I say?! So I guess that's how my weekend's going by quickly though it is sad. 
   I suppose I should go in the order of events here though. So a few weeks ago I stepped up in the technological world....And I bought a 4th generation 32g IPod Touch. Awwwwwe yeah! I'm pretty happy with it, I mean I have friends who have them and Indi has one so I knew what I was getting into. But yeah good investment. I still need to find a case though, but I just can't decide on one. So then my family and I went on vacation a few weeks ago, right after I got my IPod. We went to Minneapolis to see a friend of my sisters, then went to the Wisconsin Dells to go to America's largest water park. Noah's Ark, as it was named, had some of the most insane rides I have ever seen. We spent the whole day there, and noobish as this is, I'm still wearing the wrist band. But yeah the park was awesome and if you're ever in the Dells you should check it out.
   So after that we went to Chicago to see my Aunt J. which wasn't as great as planed. We then came back home, I started Cross Country, and here I am writing the last of my catching up blog posts. Finally I know. This one your reading is kind of a few things crunched into one post that I could have made two or three. I didn't really feel like it though. Oh I suppose there's school and the fact that open gym is over could warrent the posting of another catch up blog but I'll spare you the details. Oh for my IPod, I can't find any really good apps. If anyone has suggestions leave me a comment.
   One last thing. I know this may be lame what I'm about to do, but I feel like it. Okay those of your that read my blog, please follow it. You may follow it without actually 'following' it, but it would be cool to have a few more followers. Also, those of you awesome people that do follow it please recommend it to your friends and anyone you see in the random jello section of Walmart. That may have been a bit presumptuous but I feel like all bloggers' goals are to have more followers so I figured I'd ask.
   Thanks to all you crazy awesome readers, and keep the foxes from your lambs. Later~

  2. Dude, you are an entertaining writer. You should try freelancing ;-)

    I wonder how many new followers you would get if you and all of your current followers wore t-shirts that said "honest-exaggerations.blogpost.com" for a week?

    And for the iPod - Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja, and maybe a virtual piano and guitar 8-) I don't own one, but my bro has an iPhone so I have a little experience with iOS apps, and those are some of my favorites.

  3. Haha thanks. Freelance as in writing books?
    That is an awesome idea! Making my own t-shirt line would be the coolest thing.
    Yeah my friends have those apps and they're pretty great but I have to pay for them (yes, I am a tight-wad). Thanks for the suggestions though :)

  4. Books, articles, comics, etc. I was thinking more articles for websites.

    I'm definitely a tight-wad too! My bro started with the free versions. He ended up buying the full version of Angry Birds, but he still has the free version of Fruit Ninja. Maybe the free versions don't work on iPod Touch?
    Oh, one other one I just thought of - RedLaser. It's a QR code and barcode scanner. Nothing like being able to look up online prices for that cool thing you just found in a store! :-)

  5. Well, I'm your sister, and I don't think I would wear one of those shirts. Sorry. :P I could make you a pan of brownies though....

    @Mac: Fruit Ninja is one awesome game :D

  6. I'm not sure how many more followers he'd get just by you making brownies, but it's not a bad idea anyway. :)
    And too many video games spoils one's dinner. Not to mention destroys one's brain cells.
    I'm just sayin'.

    PS I would wear the t-shirt if you bought it.
