In July and August 2006, fourteen talented teenagers came together to study the craft of essay writing at a "nerd camp" in upstate New York. This is our blog. Bow.

Well...

The Wendy's thing went great. It was hilarious, we took pictures out in front of the Wendy's sign, everyone was all dressed up, and THEY HAVE VANILLA FROSTIES NOW!!!!! That is so wrong, now I can't ask for vanilla to piss them off... It was very fun.

All day today we were making tomato sauce. We have, literally, at least 1,000 tomatoes in our garden, a lot of which are extremely huge and mutatedly deformed looking. We made about 400 or so into tomato sauce today and we still have about 200 more that need to ripen for a few days. I must shower and get the stench of tomatoes off of me, although my house will smell like the tomato sauce cooking for a week or so. I don't mind the smell of cooking tomato sauce... But we have so much that we ran out of pots, and stove top.

Tonight we're going to a Valleycats Game. The Valleycats are the local college baseball team. We're going because this is like the last game of the season (or something like that) and because our neighbors got luxury box tickets, which means we get to watch it inside and we'll actually have GOOD SEATS! WOOHOO!

I got my school supplies today. Actually, since our high school doesn't give out supply lists or give us our schedules till the first day, I just took all the supplies I had left over from last year, stuck them in a backpack, and estimated that I would probably need a few more notebooks and some pens. I'll figure out the rest of the stuff I need on the first day...

And the First Day of School Nightmares have begun. I get these during summer every year, although I've had suspiciously less this particular summer, probably because I've been so busy. They usually consist of me forgetting locker combinations, schedules, being late to class, etc. It's all a very twitchy business. I REALLY do not want to go back to school, because I'll be challenging every essay we're told to write and otherwise disrupting the english class with stuff I've learned this summer. Uh oh...

Oh well.
