[ghost post] the future is awesome

Hey gang,

I bet the future is awesome. (By future, I mean the present, when this ghost post is published). Are there flying cars yet?

In theory, I am going to be coming home from Peru tomorrow. But maybe, in the future, which is now the present, things have changed. Perhaps I have already been deported back to the states to await trial. Either way, HEY LAURA, DID YOU WATER MY PLANTS?

Actually, I just realized that maybe Laura doesn't even read this blog. Can someone ask Laura if she watered my plants? If not, she owes me 30 beers for every plant she didn't water (180 total beers).

The first person to ask Laura if she watered my plants and reports back wins not having to sit around and act interested while I flip through the 1000 pictures I took on my trip.

See you all soon!

[ghost post] so, what's up?

Hey gang! This is Grant from the past trying to communicate through the amazing power of Ghost Posting technology. Grant from the present is probably sand-boarding, surfing, or hiking through the rainforest. Grant from the future is ruling you all with an iron fist. Especially you, Laura. Water my plants.

I think everyone should make up an awesome New Year's Resolution and post it in the comments.

[ghost post] Ghost posting is awesome.

I think one day I am going to start a blog called ghostlog.blogspot.com (um, I did not actually verify if that is available or not. DON'T SUE ME, GHOSTLOG.BLOGSPOT.COM!) where the entire blog is written ahead of time with posts scheduled at regular intervals so that it appears to be actively maintained. Free from the heavy burden of active blogging, I will finally be able to just lie on a beach all day playing cribbage or scrabble with my friend Sara, which is what I am probably doing right now in Peru. Also, I need someone to figure out how to get "ghost paid" from "ghost work".

ALSO: Hey Laura, did you water my plants again? They like it if you put a squirt of the plant food in the can before adding the water.

ALSO: Happy New Years, people!

[ghost post] WATER MY PLANTS

I'm probably enjoying myself in Peru right now. Suckers.

ALSO: Hey Laura, did you remember to water my plants?

Also, I hope everyone is having a wonderful day.

NEW FEATURE: Ghost Posts

Hey gang,

Tomorrow I am going to Peru. It is going to be awesome.

In the next three weeks, you may occasionally see special Bac-Log "Ghost Posts", which are posts that I have prepared ahead of time and scheduled for publishing at certain dates. I like to think that I'll have time and opportunity to make some real posts that document my awesome adventures, but I'll probably be too busy laying on the beach or eating cerviche like I promised the UW Travel Health clinic I wouldn't. So don't hold your breath (unless you are going underwater).

See you later, suckers.
