So, I'm watching Hogan's Heroes, and I realize that I could learn a lot of manipulation techniques from these guys. Having studied episode after episode of this, I now have a list of two techniques to use. Here they are:
Technique 1:
1. Find a really stupid person.
2. Find out what they're scared of.
3. Tell them that it's going to happen.
4. Tell them that they can get out of it if they do what you want them to.
5. When they find out that it wasn't going to happen, blame rumor.
Technique 2:
1. Find a really stupid person.
2. Find out what they like.
3. Tell them that it will only happen if they do what you want.
4. Pretend to give it to them.
5. Push the red button at the last minute.
Both of these techniques seem to be foolproof. As soon as I can, I'll try them out and my life will finally go the way I want it to.
Only one problem.
I don't know any really stupid people.
That kind of messes things up a bit. Maybe I can find out how to manipulate smart people someday.
Or maybe I could just try being content. That might work better.

Catching Up
Before you kill me for not posting, please just let me apologize. I've been busy. (Yes, busy for a month and a half.)
So, let's catch up on some of the things that have happened since April Fools Day. I had a birthday and am now approximately older than I used to be (surprise, that). I got my driver's license, to the horror of my family, my friends, and the entire Police Department. I took the ACT, and am currently trying to entertain a cousin for three weeks. I cooked, cleaned, and read a book about an evil mechanical unicorn.
I visited Arches National Park and collapsed, exhausted, when we got home. I made an orange-pineapple-and-tomato chutney to go on top of fish. I began talking like a webcomic character and ate a nasturtium steak. I chased a cabbage butterfly to keep it away from my cabbages and made coleslaw out of other cabbages.
I did things involving roses, things involving lemon basil, and things involving drying chamomile flowers on a plate by the stove. My cousin and sisters put on two plays, one involving a stupid prince, a hippy prince, and an accidental love potion. The other involved a stupid dragon, a princess in shining armor, and a wizard costume.
I wrote a bit of my book, let Mom read it, and consequently drove her crazy because I'd stopped at a cliffhanger. I also made up another two books and a comic strip about a baby dragon and a kit fox. (Don't expect much from this for a while.)
The one thing I have not done much of is schoolwork. I'm kind of a failure as a homeschooler, I guess, but it's taught me how to dry chamomile by the stove. So, now that you know everything I've done, I need to go do something else blog-worthy.
So long!

P.S. Don't let Crazy Joe anywhere near the explosives while I'm gone!
