Hello Blog World!

After 15 years of struggling in the area of being a computer illiterate, I finally figured out how to post on this blog thingy. Well, technically, it's only been 3 years because we were not allowed to use computers before then. I did once, at my neighbor's house, and my dad came to the door and saw me using it and he punished me! I wasn't allowed to read books for 2 months!!!

So, my dad finally gave us the ok to purchase a used computer on eBay...and we got a... DELL WITH WINDOWS 95!!! I'M SO EXCITED!!! YES!!! My dad said that we don't need the fancy Windows 7, remember guys - pride comes before the fall! It does! That's why my dad said we can't play any of the games that come on it, like minesweeper - many kids these days waste away their lives doing stuff like that. That's what my dad told me. I don't think they're fun anyway, they're probably really boring. Why allow such temptations like chess and minesweeper to grasp your attention, when you could be inside reading? I think reading's better anyway, especially works of classical history. My brothers and sisters like to quote me saying this - "Books are awesome, the longer the better!" I also think instead of having LAN parties, you can have reading parties! They're sooooo fun!!! We had one 3 months ago - we all read Augustine together!! Oh, I've got to go now, my mom is calling me to feed Vanilla and Rufus - they're our dairy cows! Bye for now!

P.S. - Our new computer!!! Don't tell my parents, they might punish me for being too proud...but doesn't it look fancy?
