What am I going to write about today?

And does it matter? Probably not. I will start writing and see if anything comes to mind.

When I read a story about Richard Linklater in a magazine that at one time he watched over 700+ movies over a two years or was it a year. I thought that was a feat I could manage.

It would be fun to read a book a day for a year. Unless those books are short there is no way I could read a book a day for a year. I dead read about a woman who read a book a day for a year plus. So people do do that.

One thing I know for certain is that I could watch a movie everyday for a year. I have not yet watched a movie a day for a year. I still want to do that. I hope next year I will watch a movie a day for a year or two years.

Board games

When I was younger I used to play board games. I remember 3 of the board games I play. Candy land was one. I don’t remember much about it.

Clue was the next board game I remember playing. I remember it has to do with solving a mystery.

And the 3rd board game I remember playing is Monopoly. I think its the board game I played the most. I don’t know if I was any good at it or not. I probably was not. I have never played a monopoly video game.

There you have the 3 board games I remember playing. One board game I want to play is scrabble. I am not the best speller. So that might be a minus in terms of playing scrabble.

Jumping rope

Another thing that I can do now that i never thought I could was jumping rope. I wonder if I can jump rope and juggle at the same time? Probably not. I wonder if I can jump rope and ride a unicycle? I wonder if I can even ride a unicycle?

I like jumping rope because all I need is a jump rope and myself. I don’t need to buy expensive equipment. I don’t need to spend years learning how to jump rope. I don’t have to spend hours jumping rope.

And ask I said I never thought I could jump rope. And now I can. I am not great at it. Its like juggling. I am not great at it but, I enjoy it.

Lite Brite

I had a light bright. I don’t know why I got it. Or when I got it. I do remember using the lite brite at least once. I don’t recall using it much. I doubt I made any interesting designs with the lights. I wonder why I got a light brite in the first place????

I am not sure what to write about

today so I am going to start writing and see what comes out of my keyboard. I used to think I enjoyed watching movies. For me watching movies don’t make me feel as good as when I listen to music or play a video game.

So that is why I want to make music and make a video game. I can also put my music in my video game. If I ever do get around to making a video game its not likely that anyone will ever watch it.

I will be able to say I made a video game. And to me that is enough.

Chess

Chess I am going to learn how to play chess. I wonder why I want to learn how to play chess? Maybe its because it does not take much equipment. Either a computer or a chess board and chess pieces and a notebook to keep track of my moves.

I just read a short book about chess. Now I know the chess pieces are called Rook, knight, Bishop, King, Queen, pawn. Now all I need to do is play chess so I can remember some of what I have learned.

I need a chess goal. I will one one game of chess before my chess career is over. There that is my chess goal.

Slot Cars

I remember when I was very young when I got a slot car set. It was a small figure 8 track with two controllers.

Even though I did not use my slot car set that often one or two of the slot cars stopped working so I had to get new ones.

I don’t remember how long I would play with the slot cars when I did play with the slot cars. I do remember driving my car off the track. I doubt I was any better at slot cars than I am at video games.

I am not interested in slot cars anymore. Now I would rather drive RC cars around than drive slot cars on a track. Thought I would need a lot less room to have a slot car track.  Ah, I still think RC cars are more fun than slot cars.

Slinky

I have used a slinky before. I never did much with it. I wonder what things I can make a slinky do? I will have to look it up. I certainly did not make a slinky go down a lot of stairs like the scene in Ace venture when nature calls where Ace makes a slinky go down lots of stairs before he leaves the Monastery.

I have not used a slinky in years. Maybe its time to start using a slinky again. Or not. I don’t know.

Silly Putty

When I was younger I remember wanting to get silly putty. I was fascinated by silly putty.

Who wouldn’t be. If you put silly putty on a newspaper with test it will copy that text. That is all I remember at silly putty. I wonder what else silly putty can do? I will have to find out.

I finally did get some silly putty. I copied some newspaper or magazine text with it. And that is all I can remember. For all I know I only played with the silly putty one time for five minutes. And then it disappeared into my who knows where.

Silly putty seems like it might be a fun thing to learn about, and not that expensive. So I might try playing with silly putty again.

I don’t have any idea of what to write

about today. So I will start writing and see what happens. When I was young I saw people yoyo and wanted to be able to yoyo so bad. When I picked up a yoyo the yoyo would go down. Sadly it the yoyo would not come back up to my hand.

For years I as convinced I could not yoyo. Many years later I got a yoyo. I tired it and this time after a little practice the yoyo went down and it came back up to my hand. I could yoyo.

I can’t do yoyu tricks. And I want to know how to do yoyo tricks. So learning yoyo tricks is on my list of things to learn. I am sure I can learn them with a lot of effort.
