OK, so, my plan worked. I expected today would be no more than a grueling hell pit.... but it wasn't that bad. But when you gear yourself up to expect the absolute worst, you're always surprised by how things aren't so bad. So it worked.

That said, today wasn't that bad. It wasn't good, and I don't look forward to repeating it ever again, but it wasn't as bad as yesterday. But then... yesterday we were expecting a lot out of this place, and were unpleasantly surprised with how terrible it was. Today, all we did was hang about in mingle. There were a few interruptions to our own distractions (jumping rope, jaunts around the place, family photos and hoola-hooping, which reminded me of Scamp), but over all, it was just folks talking and having fun with each other.... them as could that is. My Uncle Buddy is known for being a stick in the mud, and he did not disappoint at this gathering either. But he had a bunk... so he confined himself there and left the rest of us to enjoy ourselves.

Scamp ended up not coming... and then having no reason not to come, which was a bummer. She had to stay home and watch her niece, Tiffany's daughter, who was still feeling ill, because Tiffany would be working. Well, after my Uncle Steve and Aunt Jane left and got here, Tiffany returned home from work saying that she was feeling sick... so she could have come if she would've known -..- But anyway. I had brought Scamp's Birthday+Christmas gift to give to her, and she had given my Birthday+Christmas present to Aunt Lane in case she couldn't make it. So, I gave her present to Uncle Steve. Anyway! Her gift to me is this cool owl with it's wings outstretched, and there are key hooks on the feathers for keys :D It's so cool. Immediately, I started thinking of alternate ways to use it.... like, instead of using it as a key rack, I could put it at the top of my office window and hanging sun-catchers from it instead :D That'd be cool. Still...maybe it'd be better if I just used it as what it was made for .... still :)

The Family photo session was a chaotic mess, but a fun chaotic mess. There were times when I wondered why we had thought we could accomplish such a gargantuan task... but, in the end I think we pulled it off as best we could :)

I hung about with various people, but I think I had the most fun with my cousins Angel and Pat. They're just fun chicks to be around. Not that I didn't enjoy any of my other Aunts/Uncles or Cousins, those are just the ones that stick out (just like always).
Now that I've had a shower, I do feel a bit better. I still can't wait to leave...but at least it hasn't all been terrible.

Oh well. I guess I have nothing else to really say. From here we go to Aunt Batty's (hallelujah), where there will be internet connection (Hallelujah!). I'm very much looking forward to seeing Houma again. I really can't wait. Sure, I won't be in my bed or taking a shower in my shower, but the facilities are much more accommodating than these.

I think I hear Mom and Bernadine getting out of the bathroom. I'm gonna go ahead and go blow-dry my hair. I really can't afford to leave it wet right now -..- Goodnight, Sunshines.

You Should Teach Fifth Grade

You are laid back. You have a great sense of humor and figure "kids will be kids."

You have a lot of energy and endurance. It is hard for kids to wear you down.

You're able to roll with a rowdy classroom if you need to, but you also know how to keep students in line.

You are flexible and spontaneous. You can throw the whole plan out the window, if you need to.

I did it again, didn't I? I even missed Sunday Quiz Spam! I really didn't mean to, but in my defense, Mom came down with a migraine Sunday during church, and she has been sick with it ever since then....so I was sorta preoccupied at the time -..- I'll try to be better...anyway...

Ok, so today was exciting and fun. The water/plumbing is all hooked up at my house now. So I have that, just...no power yet :-/ Meh, I’ll take what I can get. But anyway. I had gotten a call Monday from someone named Manta. I had no idea who she was, but she asked if I was me and then told me that I had entered a drawing at Uncommon Grounds to win a free in-home spa treatment...and I’d won :0

So, she told me it would be a basic face, hand and foot treatment and asked when she could come over. So, I got Friday at 6 (today). She then told me that if 3 or more people were there, I would receive a free neck wrap. At the time I didn’t really understand what that would be, but I did understand that term ‘free’ perfectly :) So, I (of course) invited Mom, Aunt Carolyn and Alicia. And yesterday, Mom and I got a surprise visit, when my cousin (Aunt Carolyn’s daughter) Bernadine showed up :D She had driven all the way from Tyler, TX. Evidently her temporary job there had wrapped itself up, so she wanted to drive up and surprise her Mom. So, of course, Bernadine got invited to the spa thingy too.

It was a whole lotta fun. Especially the relaxation “exercise”....if exercise was more like that, I’d be fit as a fiddle ;) It consists of spreading a face mask, and lip mask over your face, and spreading a warm washcloth over your face, and laying comfortably, then listening to some guy with a soothing voice slowly make you focus on your breathing and take you through every single part of your body to relax it...and there’s soft music and birds singing in the background, and the nice lady comes over and rubs warm oil on your arms/hands and messages them as you relax. When that was over, we were almost, all of us, asleep. I come up from that and I told her, “Gotta say, when you came up and rubbing that warm oil over my hands, I totally imagined you were Vin Diesel.”

Of course, like I always do, I took a ton of pictures. I can’t post them tonight, but I’m definitely going to be getting on that tomorrow. Aaaaand, there will probably be yet another FaceBook album made tomorrow, since Mom wants to take Bernadine to see the Mystic Caversn...which, we’ve never really gone to. That should be fun :)

Anyway! I got free stuff from them too! As a gift for hosting the party, I got a free neck wrap (I totally get it now >..>) and a kit with some of their products, along with a bath pillow...which I was wanting since I have a new soak tub :3 Plus I got 20% off my order, so I’m all about having these parties again...especially when I found out that it’s totally FREE to host them..yeah, spread the word, yo.

.... I suppose it’s totally unrelated, but, Mom and I were watching The Soup tonight (this episode was awesome :D), and they had a huge ruckus about Twitter... I’ve been speculatively scratching my head concerning Twitter for a while now, mostly because I do enjoy having a nice full journal entry....but...now I’m sorta curious. I mean, I don’t really know if I have any friends (good friends as opposed to Celebrity “friends”) who are actually on the site or have a Twitter account...so, I’m not sure I see a point in it since...I would have no one to really “keep up” with...but on the other hand, it does sound intriguing. Especially considering how much I enjoy sending text messages :3 Maybe I oughta check it out....IS anyone on Twitter that I don’t know about?....maybe you just don’t have it linked to anything...but, I’d still like to know.

well, the day has been long and I’m super tired. Mom was feeling pretty good for the party today, but she said that once she slowed down she really started feeling bad again... that’s kinda breaking news since she just announced that through the wall o..o’ I know I’m tired, too. I hope she starts feeling better =..= Oh well. I’ll type later, Sunshines.

Your Spicy Score: Mild

You don't feel like you need to spice things up. You're happy to play things cool.

You'll go along with fun, but you don't feel like you have to be the life of the party.

While people appreciate your cool vibe, as long as you're laid back and not uptight.

There's a chance you're taking yourself too seriously. Relax a little!

How Spicy Are You?

4 days later, and hello again from Harrison =..= Yeah...

So…Reiko and he dad left…Friday? Saturday? God, I don’t even know…I’m pretty certain it was Friday though. Anyhoo. Yeah, she officially hates Arkansas…but I’m sure they’ll reconcile eventually.

Saturday was a blur of activity. Mom and I went to town, because oddly enough, I wanted to shop for clothes. I bought one pair of dress pants, two casual pants/shorts, and about 7 or 8 really great shirts. Then we went next door to Pay Less, and Mom got me some shoes. Or at least that was the idea. There was a buy one get one half off sale going on, so we were trying to balance things…in the end, I got 5 pairs of shoes and she got one…yeah...hardly seems fair. But she was in a generous mood, and I was feeling adventurous. So there ya go.

We had gotten calls Saturday from family and friends reporting damage and trying to reassure us that our houses were mostly alright. In fact, my parent’s old house is in worse shape than mine. I got a call...Some time Saturday, from Reiko. She asked me if I wanted her to go over and clean our my fridge for me. See, hurricane hits, right? Yeah, well, bad one comes and the power goes out. Power stays out for a long time with no generator….everything in your fridge congeals and then slowly melts. You’ve got a great amount of sludge leaking out of your refrigerator and freezer. We all know this. It’s a harsh part of living that far south. Anyway, Mom said that one of my cousins had gone over there, and she’d said that she would clean out our fridges. She called back to say that my house didn’t even smell bad or anything. So, I told Reiko, thanks but someone beat you to the punch. Well, she decided to go and check everything out anywayz, since she knows where all my spare keys are and everything.

She called back a little while later saying that my house smelled like ass. She checked my fridge and there was no cleaning done at all. So, she asked where my garbage bags and cleaner were, and I told her. A little while later, she called back and said that she was officially not hungry, that she cleaned everything out of my fridge (except candy and soda), and then she cleaned the fridge…and then, she hauled everything that resembled trash to the road, along with what few branches she could manage! Then, she went next door to my parents place and did the same thing for them!...you know, I know she’s bored and all, but she didn’t really have to do that. There are friends that you have to ask favors of, and then there are friends who just go above and beyond...Reiko is definitely that.

After she went back to her dad’s place, I thought of something. Ike. Yeah…big mess all over again. And it’s headed in our direction…again. So, I texted her, asking ‘how much do you love me?’. She replied with ‘oh, God. What?’ and I asked if she would mind going to my house and making sure my computer tower, books and DVDs were safely stored upstairs. She asked if I wanted her to pack up my movies and computer tower, and I was like ‘If you don’t mind…’ because I don’t know if Ike is going to hit around my area or not, but at the very least those things are protected. She enlisted some…help. And she went over to my place. I got a call from her… “You have power! Son of a-!!!“ So…power was restored to my house Sunday…obviously. She asked if I minded her staying there (since there’s air and she’s been such a help and all), and I told her I didn’t. She packed up all my movies, my computer tower and the box of pictures ranging within the last 50 years that my parents left with me. She called me later on to say that she had gotten extremely bored, and that she ended up cleaning my entire house….yeah…the whole thing. Then she said “I hope you don’t mind…but I took a shower.” And I’m like….”?...no. I don’t mind.” I mean… seriously. It’s not like I’m there to enjoy the power and all so…she might as well.

So, last night, she packed almost all of my valuables up (let’s face it…no one would be able to pack up my books. So I’m sort of satisfied with them being protected inside the shelves of my bed =..= I’ll have to be), cleaned my house, and had a movie marathon. Today, she’s meeting up with her Dad again and they’re going to her house in Hammond…then it’s evacuation blues all over again. Seriously? I’m so ready to go back to my house...

Oh yeah. Today was…long. Mom woke me up, yelling for me, around 8. She asked me to take her in to the emergency room. She said she’d been feeling so sick since about 3 in the morning (I scolded her for not waking me sooner). She let me get ready, and then we were out the door. I told her to give me some directions (we were in Sheila), and around 9:15, they finally got her a room. At 11:30, they determined (after several blood panels, a urine test, and some x-rays) that she merely had a virus. I brought her home and gave her some Ramen Noodle broth...and she took a benedril and went to bed. She slept till…oh…4 something. I’m pretty tired too, but I have a bad feeling about taking a nap. So, I’ve decided to stay up…till tonight after I shower, when I shall promptly fall into bed.

I’m hoping that if Ike does hit near my home, the damage won’t be too bad…or that it’ll be a very weak, fast-moving storm. I really…really…want to go home. I guess that’s all for now though. I gotta get back to Mom. I’ll talk later, Sunshines.

You Are Cheese Ravioli

Compared to most people, you are incredibly laid back and fun.

You love loud, crowded dinner tables and cooking with a crowd.

For you, a meal is more about the overall experience than the actual food.

You enjoy fun foods. You love theme dinners and funky appetizers.

It’s been so long since I’ve posted! Or at least it feels that way. But the 17th was kind of hard so…not really in the mood to post.

OK, so hears what’s been happening. The 17th, is G’s birthday along with my Dad’s. I got a call from Mom that morning saying that my Uncle Bobby (who lives in Atlanta) had died that morning. On my Dad’s birthday his older brother died...not a great way to start a birthday, I tell you. Mom told me she was driving down and Dad would be coming in from the rig by boat (which is a long and arduous process). I checked the schedule, and knowing that G would be leaving for the remainder of the week to see her granddaughter graduate from basic training, I knew that there was no way I’d be able to take off. So I was going to be staying home this time.

Mom got to my house some time that night around 9 and had brought food. She went next door and got some sleep and so did I. I know Dad got in some time much later, but I was too tired from the emotionally draining day and just hit the hay. The next morning, my Aunt Tammy dropped off her dog, Max, and Dad popped over to say good morning and then goodbye. Once I had Max all situated, Mom and Dad got in their car and followed Aunt Tammy and the rest of the family on the way to Georgia.

Aside from having a house guest, not much really happened for the next couple of days. Friday, Mom and Dad got back from the funeral (which had been on Thursday). They called me just after lunch to find out where Max’s leash was so they could take him out for a walk ^..^

Around 4:45 I got a call from Kayla . She said that she and Renata and Celeste were going to World of Wings and then going to see Get Smart that night, and they wanted to know if I would come too. I told her I’d see if I could make it, as they were meeting at 6:30 and I got off at 5. I rushed home and told my parents what was up and they agreed that I should go. I pulled in to the restaurant parking lot (and it was so full) and I got a call on my cell. It was Kayla saying “Get your butt down here now!” which tickled me. I then told her I was in the parking lot. I joined them, but I really didn’t eat. In fact the only thing I ordered was a vanilla milk shake. We rushed off to the movie afterwards (as they were slow getting our food to us) and we all sat together up in the very top.

The movie was awesome, but I’ll wait to talk about that for a full movie review. Afterwards, we laughed and giggled about our favorite parts. In the parking lot, Kayla was like “I don’t wanna go home...” so we talked about it and decided to go to Starbucks. Renata couldn’t go…I think because her little sister Alyson was with her. But Celeste, Kayla and I enjoyed the coffee shop (me being very wary about the whole experience, as I’d never been to Starbucks before). We sat and talked till around 10:40, and then we all went home (after freezing inside the coffee shop).

Saturday and Sunday run into each other, as I was feeling absolutely terrible through both of them. Bloody hell week started on Saturday, and aside from getting Mom to “teach” me how to make one of her spaghettis (by filing her for my Cooking with Clara dvd), I did little but sleep. In fact, all Sunday I was napping…and nothing else.

Monday, I started my new duties, tending to the mail, though I had been doing that since Wednesday of the following week as G was on vacation. My days were full of mail and stats and checking files...so much so that I barely looked up long enough to check my own e-mail.

Oh, also, I finally got the book, Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. I’ve only gotten up to chapter 5, but I’m confident that I’ll have that book read before the movie comes out (since according to the IMDB profile, the movie won’t be out till December 12. It seems fairly interesting...even though I have a sneaking suspicion (mostly from Reiko’s excited ramblings) that I know what will happen. Still, if it’s good, I’ll get the other books ^..^ Or maybe...I’ll wait to see the other movies that come out and read the books after the movies…it’s always better that way.

Wednesday, Dad came in from offshore (again. I know) and he and Mom packed up, planning to leave the next morning for Ark. Mom knew that I didn’t like borrowing Cole’s (from work) phone, so she said she’d talked to my cousin Tammy. She said that Tammy had a razr that she didn’t need anymore, and would give it to me since I was having such phone troubles. I was excited about it, till I learned that it was a pink razr. But I got over it, reasoning that a good phone is still a good phone. And how many of my friends would have a pink razr? None of ‘em! Anyway, I headed out to church that night, and talked to Tammy. Turns out, she was still using the phone, and while she wouldn’t mind giving it to me, she’d need to convince her husband to upgrade first so she’d have one of her own. Celeste, who I’d been talking to before hand, mentioned that I could probably get a good quality phone off of eBay for much cheaper than it’s sold normally. So, this morning, I bought THIS. I’m pleased with it ^..^ Though, I have no idea what I’m going to name it. I’m thinking, it should be a girl name though. I’ll figure it out.

Other than that…I get paid tomorrow…but nothing else to report on. It’s rained here every day. Sometimes, so hard that the trees bend and there are white-out like conditions. I love it!

You Are a Lizard

You are intuitive and sensitive.

You pay close attention to your subconscious and your dreams.

You embrace your fears and the darker side of life.

It's easy for you to be detached and objective when you need to be.

You are able to let go easily. You don't get attached to much.

And considering how often you change course, people shouldn't get too attached to you.

It’s Black Tuesday, ya’ll. We’ve begun to call it that because we decided to wear black shirts on Tuesday. So, it’s Blue Monday, Black Tuesday, Pink Wednesday, Burgundy Thursday and Red Friday. That has been your useless fact for the day!

I am so glad to report that yesterday afternoon was so much better than yesterday morning. After getting home, I was greeted by a slightly nervous Fred along with Scamp (though Josh did stay on the computer as he was running in WoW). We talked a bit, I changed and we headed to Wal-Mart to get some essentials. It took a little while but it was fun if only because I wasn’t shopping alone. I’m sure Scamp will say that I nearly killed us again, but I do not recall any such events ^..^

After we got home and unpacked groceries we made ramen (3 packs in one big pot) and watched Mirror Mask which was very interesting. Then Highlander was coming on Sci Fi...watched a bit of that before my pills kicked in. I gotta say, I hit the sack and it wasn’t but a few minutes and I was out. And you know something? It’s nice having someone to talk to…other than Fred. Sure he’s nice (very compliant and a great listener), but it’s great to actually have someone reply. Or just to be able to go to sleep knowing you’re not all alone in the house. I have gotten used to falling asleep in an empty house what with all the vacations Mom and Dad have been taking, but it’s nice o have someone else there.

It’s been such a dreary day out. Almost constant rain and rolling thunder. Damn, but I love it. I only wish it’d do this on Saturday so I could fully appreciate it at home. I love being home when it rains and thunders all day.

I really need to do something with those boxes in the living room. I need to at least sort through them and figure out what I’m gonna do with them all. My book bins are underneath most of those boxes =..= This’s gonna be loads of fun.

I feel really bad for leaving Scamp and Josh to go off to work...but both computers have internet and all my DVDs are sitting in a box in the living room.. so, it's not like they can't entertain themselves. In fact, Scamp should've posted by now about what a great time she's having >.>...Oh! And we're gonna go and see the 6:50 showing of Transformers tonight! That'll be fun. I checked the times and it's either that, or the 10:05 one, which would put us coming back way too late.

I have a headache. I don’t get off till 5…damn.

Later, Sunshines.

You Make a Good First Impression

You probably are making a much better impression than you realize.
Social situations can be a bit awkward for you at times, and you tend to over think what you say and do.
If you make a social faux pas, you remember it a lot longer than anyone else does.

Just relax and do your best. There are little things you can do to improve your social image.
Express more of an interest in the people around you, and be a good listener.
The secret of fascinating people is that they find everyone else fascinating!

Wow. Now, it’s getting down to the days when we’ll be counting down to the Gathering…and I’m getting a little anxious ^.^ I keep thinking “Think of what you want to pack now, and put it all away. That way you won’t have to do a mad dash when you DO pack.” And then I think of all the things I’ll be needing to go do before then (hair cut, buy DVD-RWs for DVD player, deposite Lori’s check so I can buy her wine, etc). It’s just maddening the crap I go through pre-con just to make sure I don’t havfe to go through crap during the con. But, in the end, it’s worth it.

Oh, wonder among wonders, Reiko and I have started a RPG story through e-mail. I’m always skeptical about starting RPGs lately, because I always compare it to the ones I had with my twin. And lately I just haven’t really been wanting to do them with anyone. But she wanted to do one so badly the last time we all got together, and Chibi was giving her such a hard time with it. I finally gave in and created a character and wrote about about her and what she was doing in the story and sent it to Reiko for her to add in her part. Even more surprising is that it’s been going well…then again, we only started it day before yesterday. Still. It’s working well. And she’s happy. That’s what matters…right?

I bought a bunch of things from amazon, hoping they’d get in before we had to leave. It’s not that I’d be pissed if they didn’t, but I’d prefer that they did...oh, one thing that I really want to get is 2008 Nene Thomas Frost Moon Calendar. That is just awesomeness on the wall (can’t say ‘on a stick’ ^.^). Oh and I found the perfect thing to go with the ‘Mouto-chans Christmas gifts! But I won’t say what yet…not till I’ve bought it. ^.^

Other than all that…I guess that’s all there is to report thus far. Work’s been bearable and slow...I cannot wait for the weekend. Later, sunshines!

Current Mood: anxious
Current Location: Work

Even a long weekend isn’t long enough. Man, I can’t wait till the two weeks I’m off at the end of June =.= But that’ll pass quickly too and then I’ll be back in the grind. Geeze, would you listen to me, little Miss Sunshine. MM’s all “glass half full” today. Of course the glass’s half full! It’s been raining all day. But I love the rain...I just like it better when I’m home so’s I can enjoy it.

Ok, enough of that. The weekend was nice...Any day I don’t have to wake up at 5:45 is a good day. Saturday, Scampers went home. Her parents and older brother Josh came over. Josh played some WoW. We talked a lot. Ate. Uncle Steve went over and looked at the Nexus and gave Mom a page full of stuff that we need to remember. He said if the house is empty as it is now, he can paint the whole thing in one day. That’s very promising. We had wanted to go with paneling upstairs because the paint keeps peeling, but he says that it’d be cheaper and easier to just spray on that stuff that we have on our ceilings now (popcorn ceiling). He says he can smooth it all out and it’ll be all professional. I wonder if we can paint it...I hope so.

After they all hightailed it, Mom and I decided we should go shopping. I had seen some nice tank tops in the JC Penny’s catalog that I wanted to see about getting. We were disappointed to find them in the juniors section. But we reasoned that if we got an XL, it’d fit. Well, it didn’t =.= So, we’re gonna end up returning 4 tops if we can. We did find some uber cool PJs for me. That was nice. We then went to Target and I bought a bunch of crap (and Mom did too!). I got Firefly, Pan’s Labyrinth, Second Hand Lions, and Robin Hood: Men in Tights. I now have a desire to buy as many Mel Brooks movies as I can lay my hands on ^.^ And Second Hand Lions is still one of the best movies. I’m still not sure if I liked Pan’s Labyrinth….it was beautifully made, and the Spanish language really embellishes it…but, I’m not sure if the ending was really a good one, or if the end justifies the means. It’s just…disappointing. Firefly is still coolness on a stick. I can’t see why anyone would’ve canceled that.

Speaking of disappointments, saw Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End with Mom and Scampers Friday night. /sigh …thanks a lot Disney. Sorry, but I didn’t enjoy the ending. It was all good…until the end. Hate what they did with the Turners. And another thing… um, Disney? Why does everyone of importance on the boat have to scream “FIRE!!” before the cannons can fire? I’m just curious.…I mean, is there a contract somewhere? Or is that just your way of expressing chain of command or something? I Loved Jack. That never will change. Gotta love Jack. Scampers tells me that they’re thinking about making two more movies about just him, and they’ll be like a prequel and a sequel. That’d be much coolness.

I worked a bit on my web site Monday as shocking as that sounds. I’ve been tweaking things quietly for a while now, but just recently I took down the hidden “Original” section that was all about my story and world, and I started working on my Warcraft section. It’s made me want to redesign my City of Heroes section too. I only just noticed that all of the characters that I have up there, are characters from my first run with CoH…So, I might-should update at least the characters that I actually had the last time I played =.=

Mom and I were talking the other day, mostly about our future plans and all. She said that eventually, she and Dad want to travel a bit before he retires (while they can still afford it). There’s a lot of the country that they still haven’t seen, and Mom’s always wanted to sorta tour the US. She was saying that Dad asked her not to get a dog while they’re traveling around (which is totally weird, because Mom’s the last person to have a dog when she’s home in every-day life much less when she’s traveling all over). And she said that while they didn’t want to get a dog, it might be a good idea for me to get one, at least as a guard dog and companion while they’re away. I am on the back half of the two acres and all. Mom and I searched for Large Breed Dogs, and we found a web site that has information about Giant breeds and Lage breeds and even some medium breeds. It has their temperament and such on there along with how they look and what they were bred for.

I think I’ve finally decided….on a Great Dane. I want to get a great dane puppy ^.^ So, that means I’ll be tracking down my cousin Angel to pick her brain about the breed, what type of nutrition and training they’d need and all that. I figure, I’ve got at least an acre to myself and I know my parents don’t mind sharing it with me, so I’ve got plenty of room to exercise her. I think Angel works at Pet Smart with obedience classes and such, so I could start with that while she’s a pup and then keep up the training at home. Plus the temperament is perfect for what I want…and it’d be real nice to have a dog to come home to. The only thing I really want to check out is if the pen that Uncle Charles gave me is big enough for the dog when she’s full size. I’m thinking that I can leave the dog there when I go out to work, and then come home and exercise with the dog by walking or playing or whatever. Then it’ll be time to fix supper and eat. I’m also thinking that if I fix the dog’s food before mine, she’ll be so busy eating, she might not pay me any mind while I fix my food. So…I need to know about space, food, training, and any other needs the dog may have...Should be a piece of cake ^.^

Oh, and guess what? Chibi's home! Yeah, my 'Mouto-san's finally come back. We've talked about getting together sometime this Saturday. I'll have to call Reiko and see if/when she can make it. So, I'm wondering. I had these gifts that I had wanted to give them for Christmas last year, but I forgot that they were there (there was so many other things to remember!). So I'm wondering if I should just give them that now or wait till Christmas again....

I was just thinking how interesting it’d look if I got all set up and I got my dog and all, and then if Scamp came to visit (which I’m sure she will) with her dogs….that’d be a funny picture.

I guess that’s all for now...I can’t think of anything else to write. Pay day comes at the end of this week…so I’ll be broke again soon ^.^ Later, sunshines.

Well, today was fun to start off, a tad on the miserable side towards the middle, and it ended fairly well all thing’s considering. My cousins (Scamp and her older brother Josh) came over this morning (oh yeah, they brought their parents with them too), and I showed Josh Warcarft *cough*warcrack*cough*. I really should see a doctor about that cough too... ^_^ Anyway. Yeah, after showing Josh a few videos on YouTube, I let him get on and play. He made an Orc Warrior, which I must confess is a tyle of character that I never play. Evenditly he’s suited to the big, brutish tank style. Which is really great, because we DoT dealers, Mages etc. really need someone like that around to absorb a foes blows….dude that almost sounded like poetic in some weird, geeky way =) Anyway!

I finally got the Brit boy’s package(s) to Scamp for her to add to her…uh…things she’s sending them O.o And I also got to give her the Red vs. Blue tapes that I made for her….which will go to Josh whenever she moves in with me ^.^ I’m not certain how, but they also managed to make off with a good deal of my anime collection….not that I mind really. I know how funny Scamp can be about the care and condition of such things (books, anime, oh hell, anything!). Besides, no one here is watching it. That reminds me, I really need to finish watching Rune Soldier. I bought the box set and I haven’t even watched it all! I guess that’ll come after I finish Lori’s X-Files. I swear, it’s going on two weeks that I have this, and I’ve yet to get through the sixth disc! I don’t know what’s been wrong with me lately, but I guess my attention has been a bit divided.Or just not there at all O.o But, yeah…anyway. I loaned them /thinks Slayers (the first season along with Next and Try), and Fruits Basket.

Mom had made a nice, big taco soup since they’d taken the trouble to come all the way over here hauling Aunt Lane/Conni’s chair. The adults talked (and ranted) while we camped out in my room and talked (and ranted ^.^). The taco soup was really good...I think the difference is in the Fritos...I’ve eaten it before without the Frito chips and it wasn’t one of my faves. But it is very easy to make, and it is warm and tastey. After some gaming, a bit of talking, and then wishing them well as they went on their way…I came down with a serious headache. It felt like a sinus head ache, so I can only assume it’s just my allergies. Yes, Spring has definatley sprung. I can feel it in my nose =_=

Other than watching a bit of X Files and laying around, I did nothing but feel the effects of the sinus/allergy medicine. Then mom poked her head in and asked if there were any other epsidoes of Bones that we could watch…and considering we’d only gotten the first disc watched, I said there was quite a few. So we got through the second disc today ^.^ And the evening ended really well.

I must say though...I’m afraid that I’m becoming a little obsessed with spending money on Amazon…or anywhere else really. Sure, I don’t do it when I don’t actually have money...but think about it. Friday, once I’d gotten paid and found out how much I made, I went to Amazon and bought The X-Men Trilogy (because even though I dispised the last one I still love the X-men), Robotech - The Shadow Chronicles, Howl's Moving Castle, Can't Take Me Home by P!nk, Don't Fear the Reaper: The Best of Blue Öyster Cult, and Numb/Encore by Linkin Park & Jay-Z (because Amazon stopped selling it or something)…it was like…I really just couldn’t help myself. I had done the math and figured what I’d have left over after tithes, savings and bills and then said “Yeah, I’ve got plenty left over.” So I spent some. /nod nod nod. I really should focus on not doing that for a very long time…

Other than that purchase…and my lingering headach…everything’s pretty ok. Oh yeah. There is that one thing…Mom and I were trying to move that chair that Scamp and Co. brought…and Mom tried to move it too soon and the wrong way and…well…right onto my right big toe. Yeah, the nail kind of cracked down the center to about half way down the length of the nail...and the edge around the nail has turned a different color. Trying to file that nail evenly was terrible. But! Other than that and my headache, I’m doing ok. And now, I’m really tired…so I’m gonna go ahead and close out now that I’ve written here and to Scamp. See you later, sunshines!

Dammit. My cousin gets to stay home and sleep through this glorious weather. Life is so not fair.

Last night, Scamp and I got to see 300! It was so good! I’m a little hesitant to rant and rave about it, if only because I don’t want to give things away. I lost a lot of shock-and-awe factor after one of my friends ranted about Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest and I saw “OMG, Barbosa!” in her rant, and kinda wasn’t too surprised to see Barbosa and noticed his boots in the Voodoo woman’s thing (because, in fact I was looking for him). But this was just an awesome movie. My coworkers asked about it this morning, and they asked if it was gory, and to be honest...gore doesn’t bother me (Al Gore, sure, but not movie gore). What bothers me is nudity and sex scenes, both of which were in this movie. But that’s why God invented Fast Forward. And thankfully the scenes weren’t too lengthy. I always feel like intimacy is something that’s personal and private, so having it public kind of takes away from the whole ‘intimacy’ thing =.= But, every other part of the movie was greatness in itself.

Scamp and I had a regular Geeks Night out. First we headed to Burger King to eat, and that was interesting. It was nearly empty when we walked in, and these guys walked in after us. I wasn’t paying attention to them really (if it’d been Vin Diesel or Orlando Bloom, then I would’ve paid attention, but it was not). When we sat down and started eating Scamp asked if I’d heard what they were talking about and I was like, no I wasn’t really paying attention. She said that they said something along the lines of, “That’s the biggest asses I’ve seen on a white girl. Wouldn’t mind tapping that.” ...I told my coworkers about it and they were like “Gee, how romantic.” I told them that the guys probably didn’t count on Scamp’s elvish hearing ^.^ Then we went over to Books A Million. /looks around as angels start to sing. Hmmm. Yeah, so we looked around in the Manga and D&D books. Then we headed over to the journals (which was probably a mistake). I ended up buying the D&D Player’s Handbook for myself and the Warcraft manga/comic/graphic novel/whatever. I got Scamp the Godchild manga and a leather journal...with slot for a pen and these nice dark brown pages. It was prettiful. Although Scamp was a bit shocked that I got it for her. I just enjoy getting gifts for people, especially when I have the means to do so. And besides, I couldn’t walk in there and get something for myself without getting something for her. That’d been unfair.

After that we saw the movie and Scamp exhausted me with her giddy chatter all the way home. We noticed that the “Check Engine” light was on in my car...Of course, Dad’s never really shown me how to check my oil or engine or anything else, so I’m like “Ok, now what?” Every time it’s time to check the oil, I tell him to wait and show me what to do, and what does he do? Either he forgets entirely (like this time) or he just does it without me. Honestly. I’m gonna call Mom on my lunch break and tell her what’s up, then I’ll call my Paran (who works on cars and owns a shop) and ask if there’s any time I can bring the car over since Dad isn’t in town. I don’t see any other options really.

So far….that is all that there is to talk about. So that’s all for this post. I’ll check in with you later, sunshines. Ja!

Holy cow, the weather last night, ya’ll. It was bad at first because there was a tornado, flash flood warning out and all. And it was lightning and thundering and all and the rain was feirce, but then about an hour after the warning had lifted, the lightning was like a strobe light and the thunder was like a rolling gong band or something. It sounded worse than the weather that had warnings. Either way, I wasn’t sleeping, so I took the time to write till I just couldn’t stay awake anymore. It didn’t help that I was worried about my cousin in Abbeville, beings as they had a tornado touch down in New Iberia and all. But I got a rough draft drawing of Jade this morning, so I’m gonna go ahead and assume that all is well. For now.

In other news, I dropped AMOS off at the computer doctor’s this morning. It took all of 10 minutes to get him in there, explain what was wrong, fill out the paperwork and then be on my way. They were very nice about it, so it made it easier to drop him off. I had doubted that I was even the slightest bit menstrual untill I teared up 3 times this morning and one of them was when I had to leave AMOS there =,= As Lacey would say, I am so fried.= As Lacey would say, I am so fried.

…Oh, did anyone else enjoy the flower post? I thought it was cool. I put the supposed meaned of the flower under it’s picture, then the actual huge definition under that. I just thought it’d be another way to show cool facts and stuff. And since I recently started taking interest in the meaning behind flowers and trees, I thought that’d be cool.

Well, Jason’s working on the server back in the back, so we can’t actually work till he tells us we can get back on...s’kinda boring, but I’ll find ways to fill the time ^______^ I’ll check in on FaceBook and Amazon next. But that’s all for now. Ja!

Oh my God! Being without internet has become a serious issue now. I’m so bored at home. It’s just rediculous. I hate having to wait for work. And to top it all off, my computer has gotten slower. It takes about 30 minutes to get on, log on and actually bring up anything. And then it lags between actions =,= It’s gotten to the point that I don’t even turn it on anymore. What’s the point? Even worse, my nerdy computer friend linuXman has announced that he can’t help us. So we’re gonna have to just break down and ask the geek squad at Best Buy or something. I really just don’t know what else to do. I’ve saved everything I needed off of it (I think), so it doesn’t bother me if they have to whipe it clean.

In other news...I’ve written a huge letter to my cousin on something that I really want to post about, but can’t yet. I’ll wait till she’s told me she received the letter first. Then we’ll see.

Oh, yeah, I had a weird dream that I’ll be posting about later. ^_____________^

Also, I’ve uploaded a crap-load of pictures to the ‘Stuff’ Album on my FaceBook. That was ammusing. Other than that, I’ve got a double quarter pounder with cheese calling my name. Adios!

Harvest Moon

Current Mood: frustrated
Current Location: Work

Wow...what a day. I have felt so bad every morning over the holidays. It started probably around Thursday morning. I’ve been waking up with a killer sore throat, but normally, I can just drink some hot coffee in the morning, bring a few cough drops with me during the day, and drink hot tea at night and be fine. But it worsened severely over the weekend =,= I think I may have a bit of a head cold, because it feels like the pressure in my head is constantly changing. Sometimes I feel like my ears need to pop or that there’s a vice around my head. It’s not painful, mind you, just awfully tight. Not to mention my sore throat has become more permanent, and I sound like a prepubescent, emo boy. I’m definitely going to be calling our ear, nose & throat doctor tomorrow to see if I can get some sort of shot and stuff to help. But enough about that. Let’s talk about the days that’ve passed so far. Let’s see...when last I left you, I was about to go to lunch with the girls and then from there I’d head over to Chibi’s. All right. Let’s start there...

ISR WorkSaver Systems Christmas Lunch. Ok, so the lunch went very well. This little restaurant is just so charming and so superb. Not to mention that the company was just delightful. Donna and I conspired together to share an appetizer; the crab ravioli in a creamy buttery sauce...exquisite. Hell, I’d go back just to order a few more of those! Of course, Donna reminded me not to over-eat because they had some great deserts here. We immediately planed on sharing a desert. For my meal I had originally wanted to order a four-cheese fettuccini that could come with your choice of chicken or shrimp and with your choice of pasta. But, I think that I always get fettuccini when I go places, so I decided to try thinking outside the box and got a chicken dish that was fried and smothered in cheese. Not a bad dish, mind you, but I’ve also decided never to ask for something else when I know I’m gonna enjoy my original selection -_- We talked so much and just enjoyed Mrs. Ellen & Dr. Bunch’s company. We gave them their gifts (Mrs. Ellen got a very lovely candle and Dr. Bunch got a current Saint’s hat and shirt which he loved). I’m not sure what all the other girls got, but I got a $100 bonus as well from them. They really did not have to do that what with the lovely lunch and all, but it was an unexpected treat. Mrs. Ellen also gave us some great tips for how to ‘inconvenience’ a man without getting charges pressed against you. Donna and I ended up sharing a mudbath for desert ^.^

Sloths’ Con Christmas. We ended up getting out of our lunch a little late, and what with traffic being a nightmare, we didn’t actually get to Chibi’s till 4:20ish. I told Reiko that I had wanted her to actually feel as though she got there early for once...even though she was late too -.- Anywho! They were surprised to see my cousin, but almost instantly accepted her into the fold. In fact all it took was a ‘are you as cool as MM?’ question for them to want to boot me out _ But that’s another story. We all sat down and exchanged gifts and we all loved our gifts. I got both the Moutos gifts that corresponded without actually matching. Chibi and Reiko both received a beautiful hanging fairy from Pyramid Collection and a lovely key necklace, but their gifts were unique to them. I also got Scamp a 60 color pencil set and a year’s subscription to Writer’s Digest. I would’ve gotten her a membership to their book club as well, but her income is substantially less than mine, and it wouldn’t be fair to shove all those books in her face without her being able to actually get them. So yeah. Reiko got Chibi the second season of House, and she got me the first season of Bones. I’m pretty sure that I mentioned that I knew what she got me because of the escapades we had to go through to get it, but if not oh well. Chibi got me a T-shirt of Sesshomaru, a cool kanji mug, and a beautiful necklace; She got Reiko a necklace that Reiko’s always stealing from her (she figured she’d earned it), a kanji mug and a nezu & neko Furuba T-shirt. Very cute. Note: Pictures of this event is up on my FaceBook ^.^ After that, Scamp and I showed them all the benefits of having a GameShark to stop the timer on Katamari & We Love. It was fun for a bit when we could finally impress them by rolling up the world and all. Then we watched the first few episodes of Threshold. Chibi made some (very nasty) onigiri in between brakes (when we had to get up or permanently loose all feeling in our backsides), but we didn’t actually leave till 11. And even then it felt like we hadn’t spent enough time together -.-

Saturday. I was feeling a little more sick Saturday morning, but Mom, Scamp and I had all planned on heading to town to pick some things up. We had to be home before 1 because Mom had a wedding to go to. We got a couple of nice shirts at Avenue and I also bought a few products at Bath & Bodyworks. I was getting low on my pink cherry blossom shower wash, so I wanted to get a bit more, and I’ve noticed that my hands are cracking a bit, so I wanted to get some lotion as well. Well, I got both of those, and then I noticed some caramel corn bodywash/shampoo/bubble bath. I had to get that too! Then a sales lady said if you buy 3 you get 1 free, so I got Scamp some hot chocolate hand lotion (that I’m sure will make all British boys and pert puppies lap right out of her hands ^___^). We went home and just chilled out for a while. Neither of us was feeling that great. We ended the night gabbing our heads off in my room. Bub came in that morning while we were out shopping, so he had to take the guest room. I admitted that I was a fitful sleeper and Scamp said she’d rather sleep on the sofa. So that’s how things went. But before we really called it a night she checked in with her parents who’d called earlier. They said they were picking her up early, sometime Sunday morning because her uncle was coming in and he had gifts for them all. I couldn’t really complain since I’d had her for 5 days or so. I think we finally got to bed around...1ish?..I guess.../shrugs.

Sunday (Christmas Eve). Sunday I felt really bad. I thought maybe it was just because I was tired, but I really couldn’t shake it. After waking up and having breakfast, Scamp and I just hung out in my room till her parents got here to pick her up. We visited for about 45 minutes before they left with her and all the gifts I had gotten for her siblings. We then headed for church, which was very nice. I was nearly falling asleep by the end of it, but I was very hungry. That’s completely new for me considering we used to get up and go to the 8 am service and be out in time for 10:30. No one was really hungry, but we’d all head out to town (if nothing was cooking at home) and arrive just in time for the restaurants to open. Once we smelled the food we were a bit hungry, but even then it was a proper “I really want to eat” hungry. It was more of a “hmm, that sure smells good” hungry. This time we were actually hungry. So we went to Burger King for Bub, Dad and I and Mom got something from Taco Bell (which is not a church ^___^). Inside joke. I quickly succumbed to my illness right after eating and was miserable all day. I did manage to (somehow) get a scene from the book written out. It’s not in sequence, but it is crucial so I wrote it all out before I lost it.

Christmas. Christmas was fun and terrible all at the same time. Bub was just as sick as I was (perhaps worse), but we managed to try and put on a good front for the rents ^,^ We had our traditional breakfast of tomato gravy and biscuits with bacon. Then we exchanged gifts and all, and I really do think that passes entirely too fast. I got a very nice jewelry box, a pretty necklace, and a 60 disc CD holder from the rents. Scamp got me this adorable statue of a baby dragon, who I’ve taken to calling Edger (Eddy for short). I’d been eying him from the Pyramid Collection catalogs, even though I was certain it’d be one of those things I’d never buy for myself. Dad got a gift certificate from Harbor Freight from Mom. And from me he got the Bible Collection (Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Sampson & Delilah, and King David), the Smokie & The Bandit Persuite Pack, and The Ultimate Johnny Carson Collection on DVD. Mom got a watering can fountain and the computer game Insaniquarium from me. She got Channel #5 from Dad. Thomas got a “grooming kit” from all of us along with some cash to get more clothes while he’s down here. We all retreated to enjoy our gifts. Note: There will also be pictures of this on my FaceBook.

I cleaned up my room a bit so we could scoot my jewelry box in here and then loaded it up. That got me to wanting to clean for good, and that kept me busy while Dad and Bub watched King David. I realized it had been a while that I’d been cleaning when Mom tapped on the wall and told me lunch was ready. We had roast beef in gravy with mashed potatoes, rolls, green been casserole, and rice dressing. It was wonderful. Then Bub and I promptly went off to be sick and pass out for hours while the rents went and visited other family members who were celebrating at their houses.

I woke up after being asleep for a while and they were back. It was dark, so I asked Dad if he wanted to watch some of the Johnny Carson DVDs with me. We laughed so hard at that. There was this one thing (which will explain the title) where Johnny came out and said that there was a woman arrested for performing sexual favors for spaghetti dinners. She didn’t demand money or anything she just wanted spaghetti. So he said “Does that make her a Pasta-tute?” and Mom like to died laughing! I had to pause it, she was so loud. And I’m not talking about insane giggles neither; no-ho! This was high-pitched, I can’t breath, my sides are aching, Hyena on speed laugh. We ended up laughing harder at her than at the video! She said it almost reminded her of when I was very young and I had read over something about concubines in the bible and I asked if we knew any ‘combines’. Started the laughing madness all over again...

Lord, it’s been a pretty good day. It’d be nice if this sore throat and heavy head would go away, but still. All in all a very nice Christmas. Even if I am more exhausted and sore from all the merry making. Now that I’ve finished up this monumental entry and the e-mal I was writing to Scamp, I’m gonna finish my hot tea and go take my shower. Goodnight.

Alright, so it’s almost completely confirmed that my computer has a worm. As such I stayed up till 2 in the morning trying to save various files to CD. =_______= I got a lot done, but there’s plenty left to be done. On the good side of things, Scamp is with us and we have had a blast. She gave me cheat codes for Katamari Damacy, and I got to legendary status!! It was much funness, even if it did keep us up till 11 something >.< Oh well. I’ll sleep well tonight…if I can manage to save as many files as possible. We’re also having a blast talking like crazy about everything from the Brits (mostly Sweet William), to family, and stories and her world and mine. Oh! She’s done an amazing drawing of Topez! I cannot wait to have that fully done and colored and everything. I can’t wait till we’ve fixed AMOS so that I can scan it on and put it on FaceBook. Or scan it and send it to her so she can put it on FaceBook…O.o either way. Whenever she goes back home next week, I’ll be sending all the other gifts I got for her sibs (my cousins).

I haven’t heard anything from Chibi...Rieko did send me an e-mail, and I quickly e-mailed her back regarding her schedule...If I haven’t heard anything by the end of the day, I’ll resort to making calls. Chibi said something about them not being here for Christmas because of the cruise they’re going on. The truth is that no one knows anything, so I’ll be referring over the phone whenever I can.

At work, both Mrs. Mary and Lacey are getting divorces from spouses that treat them poorly or have cheated on them. We don’t know how they can possible laugh at this, but I think it’s from the earlier experience. Both Lacey and Mrs. Mary have had this type of trouble before, so they’re not as devastated by it. Nicole said she’d be crying and Lori, Lenda and I agreed we’d probably be under investigation for justifiable homicide. /nod nod nod. It’s like it’s terrible, but they really are taking it in stride. S'probably more because they've little choice...

Oh well. That’s all for now. We got Lacey to get us some Raising Cains today, and from the headache that I’m getting tells me she needs to get back soon =__=

My God! This weather is weird, ya’ll. Seriously. It’s so foggy out and it has been all day long! If I didn’t know any better (which it is extremely fortunate that I do), I’d think we were in England!

Enough about the crazy weather. I’ve only a little bit of time left. So. Chibi is finally home (not that I’ve had a confirmation of this, mind you, but Reiko finally got around to e-mailing me back and she said we could either get together for Christmas on Christmas (ironic no?) or the Wednesday after because that was the only two days she had off). Also, I’m gonna be picking up my cousin, Scamp, tomorrow after work...I should perhaps bring something to change into...

Oh, today after work I shall go and brave the clutter at Sam’s to pick up some PS2 controllers. I saw that they were the same price there as they would be on Amazon + no waiting. And I did see some low-price stuff there I might consider getting for gifts. So if it’s still the same price /crosses fingers, I’ll go ahead and buy that.

Oh! And how about this new layout huh? Pretty Snazzy. Many thanks to rattgirl for actually having it up on her's(otherwise, I never would'a seen it -_-) and LJ for making it so darn cute. I've been wishing I could make my journal a little different but didn't really have a theme I wanted to go with. The holiday theme is really cute.

/thinks. I think...that’s all for now...Scamp had reminded me that I can voice post while my internet’s down over the weekends, but I had a terrible migraine come on Saturday afternoon, and it was so bad that even after I’d actually gotten over the actual pain, I was still exhausted all of Sunday. And that’s no way to post =.=

Ok, well that’ll be it for now. Ja!

Current Mood: excited

Gaahhhhh! I swear this computer is totally pissing me off! It’s super slow, and it won’t let me just switch between windows like it used to. I usually have my journal up, another web page up, my e-mail, and then my folder that has all my junk in it, and it takes forever to switch between the two and it never just switches, it freezes momentarily then allows me to function in the window for a minute before freezing again. And when I click on links, it goes even slower. Man!

/sigh. OK. Moving on. A lot has happened...Or, perhaps I should say that a lot happened yesterday. It was a long day. We got up and went to church as usual, then we went out to eat afterwards. We went home and changed into comfortable clothes, and Mom and I hit the road. We headed over to Lafayette to give my cousin, scamp, her birthday gifts. She got the entire Lord of The Rings Trilogy Extended edition DVDs and a 1GB jump drive that I’m sure she’ll put to good use...We talked for a while, and I showed her my FaceBook. She says she’s gonna get on when she’s 18 since that’s the requirement and she’s turning 18 in ...well, it was 2 days, but now it’s tomorrow -.- But Mom said we had to start home because it’s about a 2 hour trip depending on traffic and weather. So, we started back and we got back around 4:30.

I immediately took a shower. It helps me to relax, and I do get a bit claustrophobic in cars so I needed it. After that, I put some incense on and checked Amazon.com. I figured ‘what the heck’ and bought a PS2 with the Katamari Damacy game. I figured, the price is relatively low at this point, and I do have money in the bank not to mention that payday is this Friday; so, it’s not like I’m overdrawing or being irresponsible. I’m fairly excited about it. Dad says that he’ll take out the shelf that my VCR is on and extend it so that I can put both the VCR and the PS2 up there. I just home the cord on the controls is long enough to be comfortable at the foot of the bed...we’ll figure something out.

Well, I’d better get off of here before I panic and think I’m gonna make myself late. Stupid computer, running slow. Oh well, tootles!

I took the "The Nine Muses" quiz on gURL.com
		My muse is... Calliope Calliope is the patron goddess of epic poetry. She is often depicted holding a writing tablet and wearing a golden crown, for she is the oldest of the muses and their leader. Her name means "The Fair Voiced," but Calliope inspires eloquence in writing. Read more... Who is your muse?
