This is true. I don't believe this because I'm sexist, I believe this because it's true and has been proven true by my experiences in my house. For instance, my brother, dad and I leave messes around the house and don't call it messy because we leave piles for easier clean up later. My mom, on the other hand, sees those piles and flips out and makes us drop whatever we're doing to clean up. I've even been made to clean up my room when my grandma and grandpa came over for Thanksgiving. We never went near my room! Anyway those are just my thoughts on the matter. If you think differently you can go ahead and let me know your opinion. Or not if you don’t want to. Either way I probably won’t change my position. Thanks for reading.

Childhood Book
This post is about my favorite childhood book, Gigi, George and Ginger. It was a book with three or four stories about a family of cats. Each story was about a different one learning a lesson and those lessons stuck with me. I learned that if you're a naughty kitten, you won't get your saucer of milk. Also, don't run away from your home at night or you'll get lost and scared until Mama Cat comes to find you. I always felt bad when the kittens were sad, even though they were being bad. They were just so cute and looked so sad I felt really bad and even cried once to my mom… ohh well, I was a little baby back in the day. Thinking back on it, I kind of miss that book, I wanna read it again soon, maybe. This is kinda boring, I know, but I really don’t know what else to write other than how much I enjoyed this book and how sad it made me sometimes. So if you have the time, you should read this book and let me know how you liked it, and which cat was your favorite. Mine was George.

The technology thing we were suppose to do...
Well, everybody knows how important technology is to modern day man, but do we really understand how much of our lives are completely run by technology? Even now, you’re reading this only because technology is allowing you to. My music is playing because technology is allowing me to. I’m don’t believe that technology will “evolve” and robots will enslave the human race or anything like that, but we need to know when enough’s enough. Some things are worth the hard work we put into them. I don’t have any problems with technology or its rapidly increasing rate of advances, I actually support it. Yeah that sounds really bad and all, but I like to do the least amount of work possible and I know you’re the same way. However, I do like the feeling of accomplishing something that took forever and was difficult because then I can be done with it and look back on it and be proud. Plus, if we leave everything to machines, its like spitting in our ancestors’ faces isn’t it? So I guess as long as we can enjoy a long and hard days work while enjoying the various fancy gizmos and gadgets we can halfway work and understand afterward, everything’s alright.
