We has internets now XD Yays! We struggled for days with that modem, and finally Mom was just tired of it (I was pretty fed up myself) and we went to our provider with the modem asking them to fix it. They gave us a brand new one when they heard the problem and we just had to sort of...reconfigure...I guess O..o My terminology, it make sense in my own head, yo.

So, Monday night was the Valentine’s Day celebration at the church. The theme was ‘Red Foods’...I guess. You could really make any type of food as long as it was in the red family. Mostly for gals, as the men folk go off to play pool on a warped pool table :) Alicia (who I’ve previously referred to as Nostariel as that is her elvish name) and I went off in our own Sunday School room to eat....we enjoyed that. We ended up cracking up just at each other...ok, well, mostly at me. I had made sugar cookies with red sprinkles on top, and Alicia had made huge heart-shaped teacakes with the red sprinkles...I’m not entirely sure if teacakes are supposed to be...tough?...but hers were. Her dad came in there to rag on her about it, and I joined in a bit more subtly by telling him that I didn’t know what he was going on about, and then biting into the cake ferociously before it would break :D Alicia’s mom had made home-made rolls, which she used red food coloring on. They came out pink, and I told Alicia that I was going to be disappointed because it looked so much like pork I’d psych myself out to bite into some juicy pork...and then get bread. I also made everyone crack up because Alicia’s mom made chicken noodles...but she’d put red/pink food color in it and it seemed to all bright magenta goo O..O I told her, “This stuff looks radio active, but it’s awesome!” Twas fun.

During the afternoon, while I was making my cookies, I kinda kept Dad out of the kitchen, because I knew he’d try to sneak some cookies. And I wanted him to just wait till that night. Well, that night, there was so many foods, he over-ate and didn’t get to the cookies -..- So, he was leaving for offshore early early the next morning. So that night, when everyone had gone to bed, I got my thick red sharpie and a small zip-lock bag, and I put four or five of those cookies in the zip-lock. I drew little hearts and put ‘Love you, Daddy’ on the bag ^..^ Mom said that when he called the next morning to let her know where he was, he said that really touched him. So he got some of my cookies :D

Soooo, Mom is finally starting to fell better. She’s not at 100%, but she’s so much better, it’s like night and day. So, we decided to head down to Branson (MO) to get some air...and shop :) She ended up buying me four little kanji art pieces at Bed, Bath and Beyond that are in different color and say things like “Love”, “Prosperity” etc. They were just so pretty...I’m so glad she got them for me. We also looked around Michael’s...which I’d never done before...but I want to again :D We didn’t spend any money there because we had at BBB and we still wanted to go eat.

Scamp? I’m sorry...there was sushi. Don’t tell Bear =..= We tried out the second sushi place that Branson has to offer, a place called Wasabi (gotta love the name, na no da). The atmosphere was awesome, the decor and feel was great, the sushi was good. Still, the Sushi Place seems much better as far as I’m concerned. Though, Mom’s now addicted to the Shrimp Tempura roll there ^..^ She always tries at least one bite of every roll I try, and she really helped me polish off that plate ‘o mine. the sushi menu is harder to read though; it’s an actual sheet that you have to fill out as opposed to items on the menu. Still, Shrimp Tempura and the Krunchy roll are very good. Not epic-Zen-Tempura-Roll good, but good. So maybe, when Bear and Scamp come, I can take them to Wasabi for food right away, and then in the afternoon/evening when we’re about to leave town, we can stop at The Sushi Place.

The ride back from Branson was a little harsh. The sunlight was glaringly bright, I had a headache, Mom had a headache, there were about five dead skunks placed invariably along the road sides....for a moment, I thought I was in South Louisiana all over again XD. But we got back and rested a bit. We got the internet back up and running. Now, our next item on our list is redoing Dad’s ‘room’. It’s just the spare room, but it’s the room with the computer, i.e. room with computer games, i.e. room where Dad usually is if there isn’t work to do. So, Mom wants to get one of those bed sets that’s mostly dark brown but has blue stripes on it, and pain the walls the blue and get curtains that are solid brown to match. Dad loves blue, so having that blue room will be great for him.

Oh! I got another e-mail from Kth today! I was so excited! She’s pretty much finished my girls, aaaand she had some questions about Ten’s coloring. So there are only two more, and she has the inking done for Ten already done, she just has to color him. I cannot wait till all the portraits are done =..= It’s been.....over a year now O..o wow...I hadn’t realised that till just now. I sent her an e-mail asking for these commissions November 1, 2007 O..O’ Good Lord, but how time files! I’m so glad I got to pay her back when I actually had money ^..^ It totally would’ve sucked to see the finished products and have no money to get them =..=

Speaking of money, this Saturday, there’s a job fair >..> I’m getting nervous and it isn’t even Saturday yet >..< It starts at 9 am, so I plan to get there as early as possible to get that done and over with. Take about 20 resumes and see what I can do. /sigh. The joys of unemployment.

I honestly cannot think of a single thing else to say....that usually means that I should shut up. So, I’ll talk later, Sunshines :)
