Something to Blog About

Captain's blog, stardate 1618.0...
I need to keep in the habit of blogging so that I'll be able to do it for when I'm at college.
However, not much is happening! How to resolve this dilemma?
My options:
1) Blog about something none of you really care about, thereby practicing my blogging skills but alienating all of you guys.
2) Don't blog about anything, thereby getting in the habit of not blogging and alienating all of you guys. It would, however, give me a chance to do math homework or work on my Star Trek musical.
3) Post a link to something cool, which is done on other people's blogs occasionally, thereby not practicing my blogging skills, but still making it seem like I wrote something. But I don't have a link to something cool. Perhaps one of you will think this is a cool link. (My mom is gonna be confused.)
I doubt that got me out of my blogging duties, so let's see if I have any other options.
4) Blog about what is happening in my life right now, which is nothing super-exciting until I leave for college on the 26th. However, trying to make something funny which is actually quite mundane could be a good exercise in writing.
5) Find some way to crash everyone's computer until I come up with a good topic for a post, so that they won't notice I didn't post in the meantime. (I'm grasping at straws here.)
6) Post a bunch of links to addictive websites (TvTropes, Facebook, YouTube, etc.) so that you will be sufficiently distracted to not think about whether or not I've posted. This has the advantage of not being illegal like #5.
7) Find something cool to do, then do it, then blog about it. (I'm going to Six Flags on Tuesday!)
8) Discover the secrets of the Long-Distance Jedi Mind Trick and convince all of you that I have, in fact, posted something interesting and informative. (I just rolled a Bluff check on an online die-rolling simulator and got a 20...so that might have actually worked...)
9) Come up with a convincing sob story to explain my lack of posts, thereby getting out of posting for a while without alienating you. Alternatively, pretend that I will be without Internet access for a while due to circumstances beyond my control.
10) Come up with a long list of options, explained in a hopefully humorous tone, and pass it off as a blog post!

Ooh, let's see if I can come up with a Limerick Summation!

There's nothing cool for me to say
Because nothing cool happened today
Instead I'll explain
Which choices remain
And end up with a post anyway!
