Day 14 - Innocent Garden [5.5g]

Busy busy busy

On August 18, 2011 my sister had to move into her dorm at the University of Northern Colorado. I woke up early because my sister wanted to the be the first one there so she can claim her spot, so my mom said we should leave the house by 7am. However, my sister was still asleep and so we didn't leave until around 8:40am. I was pressed for time, because I was expecting some packages with live items and didn't want them to roast in the summer heat inside a mailbox.

When we finally got there we lugged everything up and claimed her space. Boy are my arms, shoulder, and neck sore! I helped my sister set everything up and then we went to pay her tuition and get her textbooks. I left at 1pm and on my way home had a Goodtimes Deluxe Burger with Wild Fries and a Strawberry Lemonade. I was starved, didn't eat breakfast cuz I tend to get sick.

Grrrr, me boogie monster.

Anyways, when I got home my packages we here. To my disappointment, the box of moss I was expecting from msnikkistar wasn't here and I began to panic and think that it got lost yet again. However, it was because she hadn't sent the replacement yet. I PMed her and she said she sent it out today (8/18) so I guess I'll expect them to show up on Saturday. I then proceed to open a box from Caton which supposedly had some live fish food; Microworms and Vinegar Eels. I was worried they might have been cooked, but I took a flashlight to both containers and saw nice wriggly movements. So I separated the cultures into my own medias so they can get going. My other package contained the textbooks needed for the classes I'm taking this Fall.

Microworms.

So today, my mom and I went back to UNC to deliver the rest of the stuff my sister needed. Then we left and had lunch at Chick Fil A. I had the Spicy Chicken Deluxe sandwich meal and my mom had Grilled Chicken sandwich. We then went shopping at Target and Sam's Club. At Sam's Club we bought a bag of Spicy Asian Chicken Wings. They taste good, they kinda remind me of something but I can't put my finger on what.

Day 7 - Innocent Garden [5.5g]

As you can see I have a little bit of an algae problem.

Caught my first fish on a fly rod!

Caught this small sunfish on my fly fishing rod. First time catching anything on it, I still have to improve my technique though. Today was a little frustrating though, my sister accidentally closed the car trunk door on the rod which broke the rod tip. Then it became really windy which affected my casting and got my line tangled a few times. I also kept snagging twigs in the water.
