Diary of a Nerd King #2: The Complete 2nd Season - Episodes 1 to 8 (7 page)

Really, it's like windows are a really bad idea.  Whoever thought of them really didn't think them through all the way.  Sure, it's nice to get some sunshine in, or a bit of fresh air, but is it really worth it considering all the possible problems?

I'm gonna have to remember to discuss this whole window thing with my Dad.  He probably hasn't thought it through all the way either, or he would've taken out all the windows in our house a long time ago.  He'll probably thank me after he gets over being all worried.

When I finally did open my eyes, I decided it wasn't a bad idea to just lay in bed for a while and think about things. 

I have a lot on my mind these days, and some of my best thinking gets done while I'm lying in bed.  I imagine that's true of all the great minds in history.  You know... people like the guy who invented the skateboard, pop-tarts, shoelaces, rock'n'roll, picking your nose, or lighting your farts on fire. 

Not that it was a guy who invented all that awesome stuff.  I could totally see a girl inventing some of it too.  Probably some other brilliant girly stuff that a guy would never think to invent too, like hair spray, nail polish, diets, and the world-wide-upset-girls-conspiracy.

(I know what you’re thinking… What’s the big deal right?  Painted fingernails, whoop-tee-doo!  Hey, apparently the girls think this is a very important invention, so I’m including it here, and I suggest you don’t mention it to your girl friend that you agree with me.  And oh yeah, if you’re a girl reading this [which you shouldn’t be reading this because it’s my TOP SECRET diary… I mean journal], then just pretend you didn’t read this part.  Please don’t start playing worldwide-upset-girls-conspiracy!)

Anyways, the point is you can come up with some really awesome stuff by not getting out of bed in the morning, so I decided I was gonna just lie here for a while. 

Boogie and I really need to get some more work done on our YouTube show if we want to become YouTube millionaires like Ray William Johnson, so maybe I can come up with some ideas about that while I’m lying here. 

Actually, the whole thing about all the things that can happen to you while you’re lying in bed would probably make a good YouTube video.  I could do some wicked awesome drawings for each of them, and then turn them into a kind of slideshow video. 

Sure it might make a lot of people scared to go to bed again, but that might make it go viral and make tons of money!

Really it’s a win-win situation because it would be like a public service message plus it would make me and Boogie loads of cash. 

I’ve never really liked any of those public service message commercials the government puts on TV, so it would be really cool to do a totally wicked awesome one of our own on YouTube!

Who knows?  The government might end up hiring Boogie and I to do all their public service messages for young people!

As you can see, I can really get a lot done while I’m lying in bed.  Just look at all the stuff I just came up with. 

I think maybe when I’m older I’ll just work from bed all the time.  What’s the point of getting out of bed to go to work, when you can get so much more done by just staying put?

It’s possible I could end up starting a whole work revolution thing.  Once word gets out that I work from bed, I think everybody is gonna want to do it.  Who wouldn’t?

Especially after Boogie and I make our first million off YouTube!  Then we’re probably going to have to hire body guards just to keep the news people away from us.  They’ll be swarming us everywhere we go trying to talk to those “millionaire-YouTube-guys-who-invented-working-from-bed.”

I finally did get out of bed today.  Boogie and I really have to get some more videos done for our YouTube show, and while working from bed is awesome and everything, I had to go to Boogie’s to make the videos. 

Boogie thinks my idea to do a YouTube public service message about all the things that can happen to you while you’re lying in bed is awesome. 

We had a little disagreement over him wanting to do some of the artwork too, but I think he understood when I pointed out that I’m the one with the wicked awesome drawing skills, not him.

I may have also mentioned something about him maybe doing one or two drawings for the video, just to keep him happy.  I’ll just have to make sure you only see them for a second or two on the video. 

Sometimes you have to give in a little like that.  My Mom says it’s called compromise.  She also calls it give and take too.  You’d think she’d make up her mind, wouldn’t you?

Sunday

Today was Sunday, and I stayed in bed even longer this morning than I did yesterday.  Strangely enough, I didn’t have as many good ideas this morning as I did yesterday morning. 

Maybe that’s because I fell back to sleep.
