After spending about an hour fiddling with my ActionMax game, I got this dumb idea in my head to make an acrostic puzzle. For those of you unfamiliar with them, it's where you take a famous quote or something and rearrange the letters to make clues to form other words, and the solver has to write down the answers to the clues letter by letter and also put the same letters in the squares. It's a really hard thing to do, especially MAKE, especially when you've got a really long quote to do, like this:

Three hours later, I was finally finished with this behemoth. While I was working on it, I was watching the NBA opening day on TNT. Miami won (duh...) and I didn't really tune in that much to the Lakers/Clippers game since I was kind of tired near the end of that game. The only problem with making ones this big is printing them. Luckily for you and me, there's a program called ECM which aids people in making these puzzles. I entered the quote and it tells you how many of each letter you have left to form clues with. I was surprised at the amount of the letters I, D, and H there were in this particular one. H isn't really that popular of a letter, and there were like 47 I's. Surprisingly, the word "IDAHO" does not come up in the clues. I ran out of C's early on, and the letter T was a hot commodity, especially to make the word "THE" to start a clue since I had so many H's to use up. Nevertheless, I managed to make this one. And lucky for you, there's a program called "E-Crostics" which aids in solving them so you don't have to print them out. And, after this great accomplishment, I slept. I got up at 7am, and spent some time with the dog. She apparently really likes it when I fall asleep on the couch with her. I woke up at 11am to take the dog out, and haven't really done anything useful the past couple of hours. Come to think of it, BEHEMOTH would have been a great word for this acrostic since it uses 2 H's. Oh well, luckily, I don't care because it's done. And I had a really horrible stabbing headache on the sides of my head before I attempted this. It was so bad, I thought if it doesn't stop soon, I would have to have mom take me to the hospital. But it quit. It only lasted a couple of minutes, but it hurt really bad.
