THIS BLOG IS NOT DEAD

This blog should never die.

So yeah, school is really cramping up my life. Poo. Less time for blog/computer/fun/life. Damn.
So yeah, sorry I haven't updated in 10 days (read: FOREVER). I don't even really know what to say...
Ugh if anything this post is turning into a "Garret is still alive and so is this blog" post. That sucks. I need something to write about.....


Oh, here's something I guess. Mr. Vaughn Wallace and Ms. Alexandra Bailey came down to DC this weekend. That was fun. We didn't really "do" much, just mostly walked around...Alex left earlier today, Vaughn leaves tomorrow. I'm staying.

So yeah, Vaughn came home sick with a fever. I think I caught it, but I don't have the magic fever that will keep me out of school. But that's not why I want a fever. At the risk of sounding like some crazy psycho who has mental disorders, I'm going to say this: I miss the feeling of having a fever. I've forgotten what it's like to feel all warm then get the chills. I want to experience that again. In fact, I feel sorry for Tom Cruise and his "immunity" to illness. Hah. Sucks to be him. He doesn't get to really live. Illness and death are part of life, and if you were to eliminate one of them from your life, you may as well embrace the other forever; give up illness, go ahead and take death; give up death, better increase how much illness you get - otherwise your life is as boring as living in nothing. Savvy?

Heh heh heh...I watched some of POTC 2 and most of the first. I just couldn't watch the whole things though. Ah well. Still good. Speaking of movies, I want to see all 6 Star Wars movies in a row sometime. I just don't know where that time is going to come from.

Oh, I found something cool out. For those of you who both use iTunes and regularly go to Starbucks: next time you go to Starbucks, pick up a Song of the Week card. Then go home and get your free iTunes download. I've discovered that's a good way to find good new music and experience different styles of music you may not listen to otherwise. I love it. Maybe you will too.

So Sports Day (read: Field Day for older kids) is this Friday. I'm on the Pink team. Hooooow fun. I had to buy a pink shirt because, heck, I don't own one! So I figured if I'm buying one I'm buying a shirt I'll wear again. I picked one that I thought I might wear again: it's a shirt that says in white letters "REAL MEN WEAR PINK". Pretty fly. [Did I really just say something was "fly"? Yes, yes I did.]

So...you may have noticed that my posts are fewer and longer. I'm happy with that. Are you? If not, I can try to update more. The only troubles with daily or regular updates: 1) I feel obligated to post, and 2) I don't have as much to say.
On the contrary, irregular posting can turn my blog into a massive spam dump. But I think I'll stick with this for now, unless of course all 3 or 4 of you who read this don't like that. Just lemme know, or don't because I usually don't get replies when I ask for them, yet when I don't I get 2358798659649917247243907534 replies. So whatevs.


I'm officially out of things to say...wait not yet. School! Change in routine: Mom drives me to school in the morning, and I usually walk home. Fun! Oh and I brought Major after school one day and EVERYONE loved him. YES! SCORE FOR ME AND THE DOG! Oh! And I wrote my two rough drafts for the school newspaper. I don't really know if they're any good, but I feel content that I'm part of a Journalism class. And uh...oh. I'm actually learning in French. Weird. And Bio still sucks. And and and and...uh...yeah.

Hope you're all pleased with this megapost.
This is Garret Wallace (Gart, GWW, Gary, Wally, Wallmaster, Wallynator, Gar, Gargar, haha E-callaw, and all those good names) SIGNING OFF. lol newscast...

yayyy garret you posted again!!!

and i think i'll get first comment....woooo!

and umm i hope you get a fever so you can lose your psychological desire for a fever? that's a little weird, but i guess i understand haha. i miss having a regulated body temperature (since i screwed up my shoulder it's just made my temperature go up and down really sporadically...anyway), so i guess it's possible to miss having an unregulated body temperature.

but yeah your comment on death made me think of this random poem we read in d-murph's class last year that was all "i'm not afraid of death and i laugh in his face ha ha ha ha" except then the speaker died at the end...whoops.

but on to happier topics:
1. lol, good point about the time needed to watch all six star wars movies in a row. i would totally come down and chill with you in DC and watch them with you except i don't have the attention span to sit still long enough for like three days straight to watch them, haha. well not quite that long, but you know what i mean. you know what i'm like at the movies, andrew and i end up crawling around on the ground cause we can't just sit there and watch.
2. those starbucks card things are pretty cool and i always pick one of them up, but i always lose them! any suggestions? haha.
3. please please please find a way to post a picture of you wearing your pink shirt!!! i absolutely died on the floor laughing when i read that, especially when you described it as fly. that makes me think of that song from the pineapple express trailer that's all "i fly like paper get high like planes if you catch me at the border i got visas in my name....all i wanna do is BANG BANG BANG BANG and-a ka-CHING and take your moneyyy"....
yes, i'm okay.
4. once or twice a week updates are superfantastic. and you can just keep IMing me when you post so i know to comment!
5. have you written to andrew in swiss semester yet? i kind of want to but it's so awkward trying to write him a letter and i'm just like...yeah. wondering if anyone else has yet, haha.
6. hooray for everybody liking your dog!! on friday i was babysitting because i have no life and i ended up watching seven kids and four dogs. the kids got along just fine; the dogs, not so much, they kind of were at each other's throats all night. oops. and one of them ran away...except it ran home so it was all good. the good news? if i got paid that much for working four hours every night, i'd be loaded!
7. i like how you have about three thousand nicknames. that's always a good icebreaker...ask me if that's confusing cause i don't feel like explaining it now haha.

we miss youuuuuuuu! <3333

wow i need to like step up my blog-watching im getting beat by this "Krista" and "Allison".. whoever they are

school cramps everyone's life. i especially like the 6 year old language in one sentence (poo) and the not 6 year old language not much later (damn). nice contrast. i dont really understand the (read: ) stuff, but i'm sure itll come in time.

i heard about the whole visit thing. and you saw a hippie. and rode the metro. whatever. haha

vaughn needs to eat more vitamins. keeps sickness out! wow, catchy. at the risk of sounding like someone with a mental disease HA funny but anyway i think i know what you mean. sadly, you're going to get a fever, then be like oh shit. this sucks. what was i thinking? anyway. way to go with the whole deep and philosophical thing. kinda makes me want to get sick more or something.

potc, good movies. btw, i heard something about how we're all coming at some time or whatnot so ill bring all my star wars movies (yes i do have all six, EXTENDED EDITIONS) and yes, i have done that before. in fact i do that with all those types of movies such as star wars lord of the rings the matrix harry potter, all that jazz. we'll do it then

i know about that whole itunes thing. sadly, i am still depraved of an ipod. poop. well i dont give a shit. (note: contrast)

wow. remember in the one play where andrew was the only boy in the pink group when he like hated pink and was still like a very angry little boy? reminds me of that. minus the whole real men wear pink thing. whatever, do what you will. and never forget your roots -- DECE

and personally i like fewer and longer, because i agree the whole 9 posts a week with nothing in them is a waste of time and space. it also provides me with an opportunity to write a MASSIVE response to rival "Krista"'s (oh no!) and i enjoy that. especially when i should be upstairs proofing an english essay and typing a french poem. oops.

and ok yeah i think youve basically exhausted the whole school subject. its cool though, if something vaguely interesting happens, please do elaborate. it'd be intersting.

HAHHAAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH E-CALLAW wow im so pathetic.

question: do you get like emails when people comment?

question: i heaaaaaarrrrrr you maylikedudes.
