Andrew, you're homeschooled?  I didn't know that.  I was homeschooled until high school.

Today:

7:30 - tried to wake up
7:45 - actually woke up, ate a biscuit.
8:45 - family devotions
9:45 - progarchives!
11:00 - off to my college class, listening to Genesis, And Then There Were Three
12:00 - class time, American 20th century history.  First day, so no class content of interest, mostly introduction stuff, syllabus review, class introductions (which took a long time as it's a lecture hall class with 80 students).
1:00 - going back home, listening to Rush, Caress of Steel
2:00 - more PA
3:00 - feeding my dog and practicing guitar
5:00 - ham and salad for dinner
6:00 - more guitar practice
7:30 - heading to guitar lesson, finishing Caress of Steel
8:15 - guitar lesson.  I play a classical piece, an original song, some jazz solos, we talk about Mastodon videos, chord building, and how it's important to know all the rules so you can break them more effectively.
9:20 - heading back, And Then There Were Three again
10:00 - a nice hot shower, singing Genesis songs in the shower
10:30 - on here again, listening to Book 1 by The Great Gamble
I love dogs, I've always loved dogs

Woke up, fell out of bed
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up, I noticed I was late
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream

Wow, you American boys head back to school really early in comparison to us Canadians. We don't start till September the 4th! Tongue I suppose it varies throughout the country though.

Okay, what did I do today? Hmm..

- Woke up at 6:30 AM to go to work with my dad (landscaping, lawn maintenance).
- Listened to Sound Chaser by Yes and TNT by Tortoise on the way up to the first property.
- The first place, RV Park - 3 acres, took 2 hours altogether, with the both of us. Luckily it was a fairly cool day. Smile
- Had lunch at Tim Hortons.
- Worked with my father till 3:00 PM, around our area. About 10 properties, altogether, were finished.
- Stopped by Mike's Record Store and bought a Foxtrot Vinyl - New.
- Watched a couple of episodes of Metal Evolution on the computer and various concert clips on youtube (John Zorn, Henry Cow).
- Had porkchop for dinner.
- Listened to Tortoise's Millions Now Living Will Die in my basement for an hour.
- Went to my grandma's house for a late night swim in her pool.
- Went on PA. Haven't been on much lately, pretty busy.
- Sleep Sleepy
