Heat, Laptops, and CSI

It's very, very hot in this stuffy room of mine. I'm hoping Mom gets her Macbook soon so I can have the Sony laptop she uses now; I hate not being able to use my computer without suffocating in this oven.

...

I asked my mom if I could use her laptop while she watches yet another episode of CSI. I'm in the living room where it's nice and cool. The heat outside I don't mind; no, it's the heat inside of the house that's insufferable; particularly upstairs, as heat has that nasty inclination to rise like a helium-filled balloon and not want to move. The heat outside is dry, and though breezes are few and often warm anyway, it's not unbearable.

These hot, lazy summer days gives a person time to think. Plan. Create. I've been doing bits of all three myself. In between reading Tamora Pierce's The Will of the Empress and watching CSI with my parents (mostly, my mother), I've been on Facebook playing Farm Town and imagining someday having a farm of my own; a long-had dream of mine. I've also been thinking of my writing dreams, my family dreams, my goals for this next year of school...

I have to live poorly, meagerly, for a long while now. I've been thinking casually of what I could possibly own that I wouldn't mind selling or giving away. Yes, my newly-bought clothes I'd keep, as well as my video camera, my iPod touch, my books and my faerie figurines. But what would I sell? I would keep my DVD player, but I wouldn't mind if I had to sell my TV. Or, at least, in the sense that if I ever live someplace where I'd have to pay money for my cable, I'd probably not pay for it. I'd just use the TV to watch movies and such; but I don't need sixteen hundred channels when I only watch, say, two or three. Quite honestly, only the History Channel is worth paying for, and even then I wouldn't pay for it if I couldn't afford it. I don't watch a lot of TV anyway, and TV is a luxury; I don't need it; nobody needs TV.

(Oh man, though, this episode of CSI is pretty damn intense; season six I believe, the one with the vaporizer gun. Episode 611, "Geurillas in the Mist")

Anyway, so where was I? ...Lol actually, I really don't know; I think I was rambling beforehand.

I wonder if I can keep this blog up longer than two days. Like in terms of updating regularly. Considering every day for me seems to last much longer than I'd like, and I've nothing else to do, this blog has a good chance at staying alive for the next few days or so, lol.

Well, we'll see.
