A VERY Important Birthday

Okay, so... I thought of an idea to get people to notice the blog. A logo!!! I'm making it right now. Actually, I'm making 2. One for the Fourth of July, and another for regular use. As more holidays come around, I might make more logos. Like the Google logo, changing every holiday.

That reminds me! Today is a VERY important birthday for someone we all know and love (well, at least, Americans do): AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*******************HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY*****************************************

Yes, I had to say that. Well, I don't have much time, as I have to get dressed soon, since I'm going over to a relative's house this afternoon. Just so you know, now it is 10:47 AM. So I have an hour and thirteen minutes until noon. Not very long when you're busy writing blog posts and making blog logos. Well, anyway, now that I'm done making the logos, I should show them to you. The images at the top of the page are the logos. I will post them on ITTBM(Interesting Things That Bore Me)'s Facebook page, so you can comment there if you have any suggestions for changes I should make to them. And now, a word from our psycho:BECOME FANS OF ITTBM'S FACEBOOK PAGE! AND INVITE YOUR FRIENDS TOO! Thank you for considering those words from our psycho. Yes, we have a psycho. No, the psycho doesn't have a name. The psycho is a nameless hobo that wandered by a computer one day and saw that ITTBM needed a resident psycho. The hobo applied, and got the job. He/she now works for me, and his/her name is now going to be Fred. Fred the hobo is ITTBM's resident psycho. He runs the facebook page sometimes. Fred is a very nice psychotic hobo. Fred likes fireworks. He is looking forward to seeing the fireworks that people set off near my backyard. He is not coming to the party with me because he is a psychotic hobo, and that is enough to get him banned from my family parties. Okay, I should start getting ready for the party now.

Bye,

RJ :D

Pet Shop Days

Well, I'm sorry I haven't posted lately, but I've been really busy.
I have:

1. gotten a new bird (her name is Wycliffe)


2. helped out at the local pet shop (I got fish out of tanks for people!!)


3. gone to summer school (DISLIKE!!!!)


4. eaten free lunches (I <3 the Thursday lunch!! Go PUDDING!!)


5. and, finally, been bored.

That's a lot of stuff! Now, more stuff about that stuff.

1. I got a new parakeet for my birthday!! Her name is Wycliffe, and she gets along with Fibonacci really well. They tweet back and forth a lot, but sometimes they get into very loud arguments. Wycliffe was sitting on my finger the day I got her. :)

2. I helped out at the local pet shop. I cleaned cages, got fish out of tanks for people, and played with the owner's dog. As a reward, I got a free shirt!! :)

3. I went to summer school. Does NOT make sense, as I'm one of the smart kids. (Mom, you are NOT allowed to comment on tthis section) Total DISLIKE!! :(

4. I ate free lunches. Tuesday's lunch is pbj, granola bar, an apple, cookies, and apple juice; Wednesday's lunch is a butter and ham sandwich, canned pear halves, a granola bar, m&m's, and apple juice; and Thursday's lunch is pbj, butterscotch pudding, granola bar, carrots, and apple juice. :)

5. I have been BORED. As usual. :(

Well, that's my life so far this summer!

As for the future, I'm going on vacation!!! July 18-22, 5 days, 4 nights, MALL OF AMERICA!!!!! 22 days left!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

I'm ALSO planning to make cake and get ice cream for my mom's birthday. :)

Gotta go now, so see ya later homies! (?)

Bye,

RJ ;p

Anyway, an update on my life.
**IMPORTANT**

Sousaphones are painful to carry when you're small and weak!!
Baritones are TINY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You must always KNOW what's for lunch at school. Relying on your nose doesn't really do much except generalize.
I can read one book in a day! Not new. Darn...
Swear words are common in play scripts.

TGIF!!!!!
Thank Google It's Friday!
Google is God now. Yay!!! All the people of the world must worship GOOGLE!!!!!!!!!

I've run out of words.......

My Room is Red and Blue!! / The Annoying Talking Road Whiz (and other cool contraptions)

As you may have noticed, this post is an amazing 2-in-1!! That means twice the interesting things, without twice the boredom!! ---- My Room is Red and Blue!! -- My room has gone from being a delightfully purple purple to being a masculine red and blue within the past 12 hours!! That's quite fast, if you ask me. The reason for this is that my brothers are outgrowing their small bedroom and I'm just one person, so I'm moving to their current room and they're moving into their new room. See? Neither one of those rooms are mine! Yet, of course. I even have a color picked out! Oh, and I just GUESSED the url of the Behr paint website and got it right on the first try!! I ROCK!!! Anyway, I'm gonna do something on the Behr website, so hold on a sec. (insert Jeopardy song here) Well, I can't put the link to the sample room photo in here because the site is stubborn and won't let me, but I might be able to google the color to show you. Behr Deep Violet The link ^^^^^ Pretty, isn't it? Okay, that's enough for the first post, I guess. ---- The Annoying Talking Road Whiz (and other cool contraptions) -- This post is about cool contraptions. (insert 7 hours of sleep here) I can only think of two cool contraptions, but that's okay, because I've had a whole night to forget my plans for awesome blogging. The Annoying Talking Road Whiz The annoying Talking Road Whiz is a tool for highway help. Looking for McDonald's? Just turn the Road Whiz on, enter the state you're in, push the "food" button, and enter the letters "MC". It's that simple! The downside is that it's very annoying. It has a mechanical voice that, when the Road Whiz is on, repeats the words "enter state" over and over for at least a minute before shutting off. Ugh, annoying!! The Awesome Electronic Paint Roller The awesome Electronic Paint Roller is a tool for quicker painting. Painting your room blue? Just put the paint can on the paint can holder, secure the lid, attach the clear tubing to the paint roller and the bottom of the paint can holder, attach the shorter tube to the paint can holder, put the other end of the short tube into the hole in the lid part, push the button on the paint roller, wait 2-5 minutes, and paint! The downside: It makes a mess, and it's loud. I dripped blue paint on the floor while using it. Even though there is a drip tray, it kept getting in my way so I took it off. A couple minutes later, I dripped paint on the floor. It's loud enough to drown out the Annoying Talking Road Whiz, which is pretty loud anyway. It has this buzzing, demented-vaccum-ish noise. Ugh, also annoying! ---- So, I guess that's it for this awesome 2-in-1 post. Bye, RJ

Okay, okay, I'll post.

I know I don't post often, and when I do it's at my mom's insistance, but I don't think anyone reads my blog anyway. Except my mom, of course, how could I forget that. So I have a challenge for you readers. So, here it is:
How many people read my blog?
Comment if you have read at least two posts. Counting this one, of course. But that DOESN'T count if you read another post just to make me happy. That makes me angry. So, just to make sure, when you comment you have to summarize another post from the blog.
That's the challenge. But Mom, you don't have to do this because I know you always read my blog. Also, yes, I got your picture message Mom. It's very cute.
Enough of the one-sided conversations, I'm bored.
Ugh, I wish people would stop sending me requests on Facebook! It's getting soooooooooo annoying!!! I have nothing else to, um, type about. So I guess that makes it link time.
Linkety-link-link-linnnnnnnk.
Just an interesting bit of news about pizza.
And, ISAT's are coming up... GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!! Further proof that ITTBM is a year old.

Uh, sorry Mom, but I have nothing else to type about.
Bye!

Puppy Bowl Time!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today is the day of the Puppy Bowl. Now, I did one of these "Puppy Bowl vs. Super (Stupid) Bowl" posts last year, and that reminded me that I forgot to say- ITTBM (Interesting Things That Bore Me) IS ONE YEAR OLD!!!!! Happy Blog-day to YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, I'll (unwillingly) talk about the Super-Stupid-Bowl. Last year's SuperStupidBowl post was very long and rambling, so I'll just give some statistics.
Teams: Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Green Bay Packers
Date: TODAY!!!!!!!! (February 6th, 2011)
Number: XLV / 45
Wikipedia Link: StupidBowl-XLV

Now for Puppy Bowl discussion. Statistic time!!!!!
Teams: No pre-defined teams
Date: TODAY!!!!!!!! (February 6th, 2011)
Number: VII / 7
Link: PuppyBowl-VII

That's a lot of statistical facts!!! Now, a recipe for guacamole.
Yes, that was random, and I do dislike guacamole, but I had to do it for all you tailgaters out there. I also know that nobody reads this blog except my mom.
Shoutout time!!
HI MOM!!!!!

Uh, I have to go now.
Bye!!
