Looking back on my childhood, I realized that I never really got everything that I wanted. At Christmas, there were always a few presents that I didn't get. Things were simple. My family wasn't actually poor, but we lacked a few of the simple pleasures of life. However, we we're fine with that. Things were simple and we liked it that way. Our birthday parties never consisted of clowns and moon-walks, there we're never rabbits frollicking in our front yard at easter [erin...], and there was always the one or two little things that you never got at Christmas. When I am old and have children, if I can afford these things, I won't buy them. Simply because I feel that my childhood was better lacking a few "wants." I don't want my children growing up pampered, never having to take responisibility, and getting everything they want and more because someday a time will come when they will be let down. What then? If they get everything they could possibly want, where do you go from there? Looking back on my childhood, I feel my parents could have afforded those little extras, but where would I go from there? Just a thought.

Hey there. About to start working on layout. I think I have a logo done. More later.

Yesterday there was this old guy at the beach. Not just any old guy, though. He was constantly dancing around for about an hour. It was great. He would run up to people and dance infront of them, and every so often he would drop down and start to hump the ground. We all applauded. A guy told us he is there everyday doing that so Friday we are going to make sure to bring cameras and get some pics for you guys. Muahaha..
