No chlorine.

I withdrew from swimming. I won't be on the team until at least Christmas, likely longer.

My tip of the day has to do with dealing with family. On a weekday, usually everyone is at school, or at work, or you just don't have to deal with any of them until the evening. That is not the case on weekends at my house. Saturdays and Sundays, it is very rare that we go anywhere or do anything. Hey, I have a kinda big family, and all my siblings are younger than me, so travelling is a hassle.

What do you do when your annoying sibling refuses to clean up after him/herself?

If you're smart, you shut up, kick the whatever it is under the bed or couch, and go along with your business. Or if you're stubborn (like me) you tell them repeatedly every five minutes to pick it up until they do.

And I wonder why my siblings think I'm mean. See? I can be reasonable. (That would be my daily life tip. If you don't have siblings, this applies to intelligent animals. Except cats. Everyone knows that cats only allow us to live in the same place as them because we provide entertainment.)

And last, some Retro-Specter news. I finished editing chapter nine, so as soon as chapter ten is looked over, both will go up.

  1. Quitting Buddy :( Oh well.
    I like the comment on cats, even if I don't like how you almost never update Retro-specter o.0. HOWEVER, the book went up to eighteen last time i checked (a.k.a. today)

  2. By the way, is red your favorite color or something? Cuz it's too bright and cheerful for an old lady and anyhow it sometimes gets on my nerves...especially when it's a bad mood -.-

  3. Then why must you persist to be in such a bad mood? Also, are you Bot Plant?

    So you actually did manage to write about swimming later this week.

    Siblings? I'm a younger sibling. It was usually me annoying my older sibling in the past. Now, my sibling no longer lives in the same household, or the same city, or the same county, or even the same state...

    Use the Power of Fungus! Trust me, it works... eventually.
