Fluency Journal #4 (06/29/2014)

     Oh my gosh! Could this Algebra homework be anymore time-consuming? I swear, every problem takes almost half of a page. I really needed a break so I figured I'd drop a few lines on the old blog. I mean, it's easy, it's just strenuous. It's a good thing I have Pandora Radio here to help me get through it without stressing myself out. 90's Alternative Radio. I've had it on since 8:00 this morning, and here it is 4:30 and I have changed it once. It sure does bring back a lot of memories. Memories of an easier time. A time when I didn't have a worry in the world. When kids still played outside and didn't come home until the streetlights came on or mom whistled from the back door. When mom whistled, the whole neighborhood could hear it and every kid would stop what they were doing and ask each other, "Josh, was that your mom or mine?" "I think it might have been Daniel's." "I don't know, it sure sounded like your mom." Everybody knew what the whistle meant. It meant you better get your butt home. Pronto! Needless to say, I'm feeling pretty nostalgic today. Every time I think about changing the station, another good song comes on. I give up.
     Anyway, it's about 200 degrees outside today. It sure would be nice to hop in the pool for a little bit, but I have too much homework to get done. So that's out of the picture. Maybe tomorrow... Wait, it's supposed to rain tomorrow. Shoot! Oh well, eventually I'll get some water action. It might not be until July 24th, but I promise you, I will cannon ball at least once this summer.  Let's see, what else? I think I'm going to register for my Fall classes sometime this week. I never thought I could be this excited about school. It's a lot of hard work, but I've always enjoyed a challenge. I'm actually having a lot of fun.
