OCD+ADD=OMG

But also, it means sushi. We usually go to Nakato, but they actually don’t open until 5 pm. So Mom asked me to look up other places in Springfield that has Sushi and Habachi I found quite a few places. Among them are Kai, Fuji Japanese Seafood Sushi Bar & Steak House, Sakura Japanese Sushi Bar & Grill, Hinode Japanese Steak House & Sushi Bar, Haruno Sushi Caterers, and Izumi Hatake Sushi Bar & Grill. Of all of those, I think I’d like to try the Sakura Japanese Sushi Bar and Grill :) Not just because I love Sakura trees either. The reviews I read all said the place was awesome AND affordable.

Also, after we’ve walked off the sushi at Sam’s, we’ll head over to the David’s Bridal there. I need to (probably) get fitted and start the process of getting my bridesmaid dress going. Taking measurements...it’s never fun :( Especially since I’ve upped my exercise regiment, and yet it seems to be helping nothing. Makes me sick. Or perhaps, I wish it would. If I were sick, I might be thinner -..-

Oh well. I probably should’ve been in bed ages ago. Dang insomnia. Dang sleeping pills that take so long to kick in.

I’ll type later!

Your True Passion is Leadership

You feel most alive when you are bringing out the best in people. It brings out the best in you in return. You love to teach others and guide them. You are very patient. Giving back is important to you. You want to make the world a better place, and you know you can't do it alone. You need a team supporting you. For you, there's nothing more satisfying than a group of people working toward a common goal. Especially if you're leading that group.

What's Your True Passion?

I’ve already paid all my bills, so I’m hoping to have a bit of spending money for movies and such.... I’m not sure. If I make the usual $300+ then $100 will automatically go into Savings, leaving me $200+. You know me with my money plans; if I don’t have a plan for my money, I’ll end up spending it all. I definitely want to get V for Vendetta, the four disc box set of The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe, and Lady and the Tramp because Disney has made it clear they’re pulling the last two back into the vault at the end of the month (and I’m buying V ‘cause it rocks my soxs). I already bought the special edition of Bambi the other day at Sam’s. I checked there for the other movies while I was there, but it’s cheaper at Amazon.com if you can believe that. So, as soon as payday rolls around I’ll make another Amazon purchase. But I was thinking of buying other things...maybe something other than movies >.>... Because we all known I need to increase my DVD collection...<.< Not sure. We shall see (I’m open for suggestions ^_^).

I finally got the chance to talk to Scamp Saturday. We musta been on the phone for about two and a half hours. It was fun just to talk and catch up. Without the computer and being able to post and send e-mails at any time, it feels like we haven’t been communicating properly. She said she would be writing me back soon and enclosing Lacey and Jade’s portraits to add to my Scamp Art© binder ^.^ That’s always really cool to hear.

I said earlier that there were some things I’d been stewing about lately. Well, after getting along so great with me and my parents, Dad and Mom brought up the option of Scamp moving in over here. Then they said it might be better for us to move into the A-frame house and live there. The rent would be reduced to $100 a month instead of the usual $400, but it still wouldn’t be a free ride. Of course, if we could both have jobs and such at the time, it’d be a very nice living. When I called, I talked about the A-frame with her, and she said even if it would be small, it’d still be nice. We already talked about how we want to decorate it. The bathroom/washroom would have the mermaid paintings and such from Pyramid Collection. The kitchen would have a dragon décor, beings as the kitchen represents fire and all. The living room would have the lotus decorations, because lotus is more soothing and peaceful and we see the living room as a room where you go for conversation or TV watching and such and you want that to be peaceful. My room, I want the fairies from Pyramid, just because Pyramid’s fairies look better than most. Scamp said she might save big time and decorate her room with swords and such from the Lord of the Rings section on the Nobles Collection. The only thing I’m not sure about is all the eastern art and décor I have in my room right now. I kinda don’t want to get rid of that, but I’m not sure if it’ll go anywhere in the house...we’ll see. It might-could fit in the lotus living room. The next thing I worried about was furniture. I can keep my bed of course. But chairs and such for the living room might be a problem. But I told Mom that, and she assured me that between garage sales and local thrift stores it shouldn’t be too hard to find some cheap furniture. All I really want for the living room is a few chairs and end tables next to those chairs. No coffee table...we’re both a bit klutzy and there’s very little room, so I can’t see having a coffee table. The only other issue would be the computer issue. I mean, we might-could fit a little computer desk in the nook behind the stairs where my closet would be...but after thinking about it, I thought it might be easier if we got Scamp a laptop (at some point), and then put my computer upstairs with me in my room, and got a wireless router that would transmit internet wirelessly to her lap top and she could use that anytime in her room and not be limited and have to either come up to my room (which would kill her, because those stairs are very verry steep), or go to the living room. Ideally...it might just be better if we both had laptops, if only because it’d save a whole lotta space =____=’ Chibi had a very nice Mac LapTop...I might-could start looking at prices now...But now I’m just over thinking everything. But, hell! It’ll be my first time living on my own...I think I’m entitled to over-react if I wanna.

Oh! I almost forgot! Scamp told me that Sev had wanted her to dress up as a peep for Halloween. And I was like “Oh! That’d be so cool if you modernized it! Like, get a sequin, sparkly, slinky dress in purple, and have a peep-chick head as a hat! Oh!! And then I could get a blue sequin, sparkly, slinky dress, and have a peep-bunny head on top!! And we’d be themed!!! That’d be so cute!” and she’s like, “Stop taking his side! You traitor!” I still think it’d be very cute...I can’t help it. I love peeps -.-

I suppose that’ll be all for now...the weather’s making it really hard to stay awake, much less concentrate on typing. I might try to write a bit again later if I can. Ja.

You Belong in New York

You're a girl on the go, and LA's laid back lifestyle isn't really your thing. You prefer a city that never sleeps, and people as ambitious as you are. Cultured and street smart, you can truly appreciate everything New York has to offer.

Do You Belong in LA or NY?

Beware, for I am: Sore

I have new glasses! They’re really great too. My prescription didn’t change but ‘one click’ as the doctor called it. He said there’s only one click of difference on that thing they make you look though, and that’s not enough to be causing my headaches. So, he advised me to go and see my regular care doctor and tell them about it, because he doubts it’s something to do with my eyes. Of course, I don’t really have a regular care doctor. Then I got to thinking, and I’ve always wanted those transitions lenses that go from clear to dark in shade and light, so I got a new pair of glasses and got the transitions. It helped that both lenses and frames were all 50% off. Otherwise I might not have. So yeah, I have nifty new glasses that are very nice because they’re only half frames (the bottom of the lens doesn’t have a wire frame, so it’s not as heavy). And I no longer need clip-on sun glasses...I hope.

After going to the eye doctor, Mom and I headed over to Books A Million . They had sent us a thing in the mail that they were having a huge one-day sale. So we decided to go there while we waited to get my glasses. I ended up getting the D&D book Races of Eberron, which looks extremely cool. I can’t wait to read it, and what’s more, I can’t wait to take it off my Amazon.com wish list ^_____^ Oh, I also got a gift for Chibi and Reiko for Christmas...but I don’t have to elaborate on that ^_^

Speaking of the ‘Mouto-chans...Chibi should be home or coming home. I had that she was coming back yesterday on my calendar. Meanwhile, Reiko should be in Kansas now. So I suppose I’ll be heading over to My Space to send Reiko a message, and I’ll leave Chibi another comment on her journal. /sigh They never call, they never write. What’s an Ane-san to do?

So anyway...Mom and I then went to Sam’s to get some water. We’ve been out of water in the house for like, four days now. Mom said when she went to the store the other day, there was none. She’s been going stir crazy wanting a bottle of water and not having any in the house. So we got that. The traffic in town was atrocious of course, but we made it through. I suppose I should come to expect that on a Saturday...Anyway...Then we went to Sonic and from there back to the eye doctor and then it was home, James.

We ate when we got home and tried to watch some TV while doing so, but nothing was really on. Mom’s not as much of a rerun hound as I am. I can watch things that I enjoy over and over and not be overly board. Or at least not feel like I’m gonna puke. But as we couldn’t really find anything to watch, I came in my room and started cleaning up a bit. Mom’s got some real-estate lady come to appraise the house, and evidently she’ll be taking pictures as well. So, Mom’s all in panic mode about my room since it’s anything but clean. I have gotten everything up off the floor, the tables are clean and everything, I just need to find a place to put all this junk...It’s now all on my bed for now. But I thought I’d check in and see how everyone was doing. That’s pretty much everything that’s happened so far. I guess I’ll go back to cleaning now. Will post if something else should happen ^_^

Wow. Today was huge. Work was busy, busy, busy, busy, busy and then...nothing. For like an hour and a half there was really nothing to do. So I wrote as I usually do. Started on the next chapter and then I realized...it’s kinda done. O.o...I just need to proofread and make sure everything’s in the right place...Freaky, no? I’m still unsure as to whether I should up date sooner than next month...I’ve been pushing the ‘I’ll update on the 5th of every month’ thing. Besides, if I have the next chapter done, I can focus on the chapter that comes after that; thus ensuring that I have myself set up for the next few months. It’s a nice pace to have...slow and steady.

Mom and I went to Sam’s today. OMG, I love that store. Where else can you buy 28 sharpie markers, all the same size, for cheap? No where. No really. I mean, you can get a supposed ‘value pack’ at Wal-Mart, but then you’re paying like $12 for 10 sharpies...or whatever...I’m not sure...it’s late, and I’m tired. What else...

Oh, yeah. I bought 3 movies while at Sam’s. I got Hook and Zathura for $23.99. Verry nice. And I got The Incredible Mr. Limpet which I only just added to my DVD wish list on Amazon.com the other day. It was like $5.99. So that was fun. Mom always laughs at me when I compare prices. She’s like, “Hon, you probably wouldn’t have bought it if it weren’t a deal.” And I’m like, “...Huh...you’re right.” So, yeah. That’s cool. We’re gonna wait till Saturday and watch Zathura with Dad, ‘cause none of us have seen it. I can’t wait to re-watch Hook and The Incredible Mr. Limpet.

My Mom keeps saying that eventually DVDs will be obsolete and they’ll have something new that we’ll keep movies on. I think we’ll have some sort of digital media that we watch movies on, and we’ll just pay to download them eventually. To hell with individual things like DVDs, MiniDiscs, and the stone-age VHSs. Give me a portable computer triked out with terabytes of space any damn day.

Ok. I’m starting to sound like a zoned out hippy that’s missing the good old days. And I still haven’t copies these entries to e-mail for Jen-Twin-san. I’m gonna log off now. ‘Night-night.

You're like me! The intelligent loner. You're shy
at times but friendly, and you are never weak
and always independent. You are incredibly
intelligent (wise beyond your years) and have a
talent for many things (sports, music, art).
You have a kind and warm personality and enjoy
the simple things. Like hanging out with
friends and watching movies at home. But you're
sometimes quiet nature makes you a bit of an
outcast and a mystery to people. No matter how
pretty you are or smart or athletic, you just
can't seem to break into the crowd and be
noticed. Don't worry, try to be more outgoing
and speak out when you have more to say. Don't
hide behind your books and sports and computer,
get out there and get noticed. You also have
deep desires in life and feel vunerable and
alone at times. Don't feel sad either, What
helps me to express feelings and dreams that I
can't say to people, is through my writting.
Maybe you should try.


What kind of girl are you? (with pix!)
