Yes, I'd Like to Order One Batch of Regularly Scheduled Fun, Please?

I’ve been in such a sleepy mood lately. Too tired to do much creatively. Writing has been out of the question. Of course, when I’m not being creative I have the lame habit of checking my e-mail 15 times a day. But it isn’t as thought I’ve been doing nothing with my time. I was occupied with Rieko Sunday...and…uh…oh, Wednesday, Dad came in...so….uh…yeah….never mind.
Sunday, Reiko came over around 9ish, and we headed out to see the new movie The Dark Knight. We both agreed that it totally rocked our faces off. I’m totally faceless right now, and I couldn’t be happier. That movie was so good, I totally forgave them for the ending. I can’t say too much without giving too much away and it being a full review; but Heath Ledger’s Joker made me ask “Jack who?”. He was equal part disturbing/hilarious….if I had to use a word….I’d have to make one up and it be... distlarious…because currently …there just aren’t any words that could adequately describe it.
After the movie, we went to Sam’s. Why you ask? Because Reiko had never set foot inside a Sam’s store before, and I have a Sam’s card ^..^ So we spent 15 minutes walking around Sam’s with me pointing things out and showing her around. She seemed awed and surprised. After that, we went to the mall, because it’d been about a year since she’d last set foot in the mall. Her last X and current stalker/harasser has a lot of friends that are always there and she’s always been a little spooked by the idea of going to the mall because she was afraid he’d find out or something. Or she was afraid of being harassed by his friends. So I asked her…
”Why don’t we just go to the mall…just to go.”
And she was like, “Because the people there-“
And I was like “Screw ‘em! Screw those people! What’s the worst that can happen? They can glare at you with their emo selves and then go in a corner and cry!”
And she paused and said. “…Yeah! Screw ‘em! We’re going to the mall!”
It took as 20 minutes to walk around, and that was only because she bumped into two people she knew (and had parted with on good terms) and they were busy talking. After that, we headed to PetSmart for her to talk a bit to her old friends there, and then we hit WingStop, which seems to be forming a tradition. We headed back to my place where we consumed many wings. She brought Boondock Saints and we watched that while eating (I should say that I watched, but she fell asleep towards the end. It wasn’t entirely her fault; she was laying on Hugh – my enormous floor pillow :D). Boondock Saints…wasn’t bad. I dunno. I’d have to watch it again. It was actually pretty funny, just…so obscene.
And then life went back to normal, with Reiko’s visit seeming like a dream…as it always does. Monday and Tuesday have come and gone, and there is precious little I can say about either of them. Although, I have gotten back into watch The Soup and its specials on E!. Oh, how I’ve missed you, Joel.
Wednesday was my day off, and Dad came in that day. I cleaned up the house a little bit….not that it really mattered. Dad insisted on mowing the lawn, even though it was pouring rain. We went to eat out and I got a call from my old friend Brandi. I hadn’t heard from her since...7th grade? That’s when I met her...we just grew apart eventually and the last I’d heard from her she was getting married. I have no idea how she got my number, but it was nice to hear from her and hear that she was doing well.
Church was ok. Celeste was there, so I didn’t have to cut up as much ^..^ Near the end I asked Kayla if she’d be coming to my movie night and she said she might. So at the very least, I know Celeste and Kayla will be showing up (no doubt with their respective S.O.’s). Misty has said that she might show up too, if she’s capable of doing so. Daniel said he might come too if he’s off. At least I won’t be watching a movie by myself Saturday night ^..^
Dad left sometime this morning around 3:30 am for Arkansas. Now that he’s gone, I need to situate my living room and let Harvey do his job. I keep telling people, “My house normally isn’t this clean...it’s just because you’re hear that it is.” Because in truth, I’m no house cleaner (or a cleaner at all). But every time I have a movie night, I try to clean as much as I can anyway...my mom’s hoping that I start to have movie nights more often just so I can clean more =..= Sorry, Mom. Just once a month.
I’ve been popping over to DeviantArt a lot, just to keep the favorites from piling up. I’m really loving SugarGrl14 because her work with altering eyes and her Seven Deadly Sins pictures are awesome. I just love her manipulation of color and how she makes it look very natural in the eyes and face. But I also found Roommates by *AsheRhyder and Girls Next Door by *Pika-la-Cynique…and it’s just so made of awesome. It’s like someone took my errant dreams and made them into a funny little comic XD! It’s just so cute...and until Scampers can get her Chibi Hothien comic started, I don’t see any other option ¬.¬
One week till Mecha Con. I need to buy...*thinks* a small ice chest, some DVDs for my camcorder...I can’t think of anything I don’t already have. So I suppose that’s it (unless I should think of something else). I really cannot wait for some regularly scheduled fun. And since Reiko’s never been, it should be interesting.
Hmm...I can’t think of anything else to write. I guess that means that’s all. Later, Sunshines.
Which Disney Princess are you?
