Hands down, this is the best thing that happened to me this summer. His name is Conan. We got him early in June at the delicate age of two months and weight of 13 pounds. Do not be deceived, he's no longer this cute and no where near this tiny, but I love him all the same. <3 He made an otherwise dull and uneventful summer absolutely fantastic.

( Three months later: Surprise! He's got dane in him, no wonder he's already as big your five year old shepherd and eight year old neighbor! @_@ nojoke )

Now that summer is coming to an end, I was wondering what made it so great for everyone else? Did you do anything special, anything exciting happen?

Nothing happened to me over the summer. ;-; Everything cool is happening in September, which is the weird month where nature dictates that it's summer, but the fact that I wake up when it's still dark and not when it's getting dark clearly shows it's fall.

So if it's technically summer, well... I got a metric crapton of awesome games: Exciting Animal March, The Beatles: Rock Band, Scribblenauts, and Pokémon: Soul Silver is on its way over to my doorstep. ._. Well it's a metric crapton by my standards; it's a good year if I get four games that I actually really like. 'M not much of a gamer, you see.
And I got a driver's license (actually, I got that in the real summer) and fourteen discs of remastered Beatles glory; for the past two weeks I've been finding excuses to drive places so I can blast them from my (parents') car... even if that's technically illegal. At least I'm not on my cellphone. >>

Still, none of that beats the fact that last week, my brother moved out. I mean, he went to college last year, but he came back during the summer and announced that he was dropping out of college, which made summer SUCK WITH A CAPITAL SUCK, but now he's actually moving out. And lemme tell you, being an only child rocks. At least, if you don't mind making noise, more time with the house to yourself, and not having to share. Which I don't. :D
