It's Not Cleaning, It's A Treasure Hunt!

I always fall behind on keeping this thing up to date. Feb. was my last post, and since I have a few moments to spare today, I thought I should write something. It's been a rather dull, hot day this Fourth of July, in which I have dedicated myself to finally cleaning my room (something else I'm always behind on keeping up to date). This mess is probably the worst my room has ever become, and I was pretty confident that I was going to be raided by the Macomb County Department of Health within the next week.

It's easy for me to get distracted while I'm cleaning. Oh, who am I kidding? It's for me to get distracted in general. In fact, I'm currently writing this while I should be finishing my room. Cleaning always turns into a treasure hunt for me, and sifting through the rubble of my belongings today, I found some interesting things I had not thought about in a long time, and I thought I would share them with you today.

 I found an automatic (albeit dusty) card shuffler. Anyone who has ever played cards with me knows how much I need to have one of these. I have the hands of a dolphin when it comes to shuffling cards. It's actually quite embarrassing doing the eight year method of shuffling and just spreading the cards out across the table and making a huge mess as you try to regroup it into a deck.






 I found a lamp I had made out of a Chinese food box. This was one of the very last projects that I completed in my tenure at ACO. I never use it, it's a fire hazard and is somewhere on my list: Top Ten Likely Ways I'll Meet My Death In A Most Idiotic Way
 This disposable camera is getting up there in age. It's from the senior all-night party back in 2008. I'm dying to get it developed and see what the hell is on it. I wonder if there's any action shots of the Tarot Reader making me cry.
MY TV HAS A REMOTE!!!!! THIS IS GOING TO MAKE THINGS SO MUCH EASIER!!!!!
 That would indeed be an unopened Christmas present for my sister in law Sierra. This is just one of many examples of why I am the world's greatest brother in law.
 This is my bill from a bar, in which the bartender wrote down that he wanted me to send him a naked picture. This still makes me laugh.
 No matter how hard you try to run away from your childhood, Pokemon will always reel you back in. Immaturity reigns supreme in this day and age.
