There was a short episode in Calvin and Hobbes back when it was still being written. In this episode Calvin became sick with the chicken pox over the summer. When Calvin rinds out that he will be stuck in bed for a week of his precious summer, he proclaims that he will make up the lost time at the end of the summer and go to school a week later. The sick days don’t count.

I will be attending class a week late this fall. I was sick all last week and I proclaim that those days do not count.

I went home today because my dad needed some help hanging drywall. It took us roughly four hours to do a room.

After the drywall was when the fun began. I started to take the engine off the Kawasaki. One of my good friends diagnosed the bike and he suggested that I rebuild the engine completely to get it running like new. So that is what I am going to do. I have never done something like this before, so it will be interesting. I will keep you updated.

I also played another game of softball this evening. My batting average for the season went up from .800 to .846. I will be accepting contracts for next season. And I will accept the lowest amount a team is legally obligated to pay.
