A bit ago, the phone rang and 'twas my Ant Chris. She and hers are leaving from Austin to hang with us in our 'hood. (hoo-hoo-hoo.) She asked if I wanted her to bring anything, and personally, I didn't, but I thought perhaps mum might, so I went downstairs with the phone and asked mum. She also did not. However, she had cat hair all over her face because Cutie was sitting on her and every time she tried to wipe it off it didn't work because her hands had lots of cat hair on them. So, she wanted me to wipe it off for her. But it's really weird to wipe someone else's face u_u()()()() So I used my shirt, but it still wasn't working very well, so *she* used my shirt and wiped off her face. It was interesting.

Today was voice lesson today. Only I actually was aware of the situation. However, I was still counting on AnJa to wake me up and she didn't XÞ Instead, at around 11.10 or something Mum came in and woke me up, saying, "did you forget you had a voice lesson?!" or something. And I really really wanted to go back to sleep, but I didn't cos I'm a good girl. I got up, dressed myself, brushed my teeth, and piled together my music, pencil, and Les Misérables (one must entertain one's self when one's sister is having her voice lesson). Then I went and found the other piece of music that I forgot to bring last week but remembered this week. *blink* And then I went downstairs and mum was making breakfast tacos... I got water and took my drugs... (not illegal ones)... and... ummm... then I heard AnJa go "OH NO!! I forgot to put away my shoes!!!" and I did not understand. And mum was like "Uh-huh. And I felt kinda sorry for you since you got home so late last night, too..." (AnJa got home around 11.45 from Old Navy, which she has given her two week's notice). And I still was confused. Then I went to the bathroom. (Aren't you so glad I told you that) Therefore, I was not participating in the conversation, but overheard some of it. Mum said something about paying back, and then some other stuff happened, and I heard mum say "You're going to make her pay 4.50 when that's more than Taco Cabana even cost?" and AnJa said "No, it's not!" and mum said "Oh," and a few seconds later AnJa knocked on the bafroom door and said "Go get your money so I can get my shoes!" and I was confused. But I went and got my money (after I washed my hands) and went into the kitchen and AnJa said "4.50 for Taco Cabana!" so I got out $5 bill and she said "Just leave it on the counter." Then my breakfast taco (I don't actually like breakfast tacos) was wrapped in aluminum foil sitting on the table, so I got it and we left. And I was confused so I asked AnJa what had just happened. ;o

Okay, see, we always take our shoes off when we go inside and leave them in the entryway, right? There's a closet right by there and we're supposed to put our shoes in the closet and have only one pair out on the floor at a time. However, when AnJa got home late last night, she took off her sneakers and left them, not realising that her Birkenstocks were already there. So, mum hid them.
..........
and wouldn't give them back until we payed her back for the money she gave us yesterday to go mail something at the post office. She gave us $17, and the mailed thing cos... 2.50 I guess, then AnJa and I went to Taco Cabana and had lunch. We were NOT being dishonest and planning to just use mum's money and not pay her back, we just hadn't yet, so we did then. But it's like, it was already past time for us to have left, and mum has to have us pay her back *right then*? Really, I sincerely love the dear woman, but sometimes she just seems... neurotic... also, her method of dealing with frustration... o_o When we do something she wishes we wouldn't do (e.g. not come down to supper as soon as we're called, get bottles of soda instead of fountain drinks, leave out too many pairs of shoes) she doesn't say anything at all about it until we've done it so many times that she's really angry, and then she gets mad at us about it. But does she tell us after the first time we do it that she wishes we wouldn't? NO! We never even have the slightest idea that anything we're doing is bothering her until she's totally fed up by it. I don't know what she tries to accomplish by dealing with it in such a fashion, but *really*... oh well. I really truly think she's just about the best mum in the world, but that doesn't mean I think she's *perfect*... ...anyway, she is a good mum and only a couple of things she does are severely disliked by me. Every time I'm at a friend's house or whatever and their parents are there, when I leave I always just think how incredibly lucky I am to have my parents instead of my friend's O_O I'm not joking, I really do. And that doesn't mean I *dislike* my friend's parents. I'm just glad mine aren't them.

Dowhy is such a creep! He didn't notice that I got a rather DRASTIC haircut, even AFTER I pointed it out to him! >:o He said, like "Well, it doesn't look any shorter!" and I was like "It used to be down to HERE!" (indicating where it used to be down to, that is, an inch or so above my waist) and he was like "No it wasn't!" and I was like "Yes it was, you can ask AnJa!" and he was like "Well okay then." Dowhy's a gnome. But I don't mean that in a bad way.

I got my next GF in FFVIII (Leviathan) but there aren't enough spaces to name it Thénardier ;_; There are only enough for Thénardie. I thought about calling it Thénard, since that's his rather pointless alias at Marius's wedding, but it just wasn't *right*, so I named it Enjolras instead. Yay. ;o

Tomorrow I'm going to see Final Fantasy! I thought it was opening tomorrow, but it opened yesterday. You see, dears, usually in this city, movies only open on Friday (even if they open on Wednesday or something in the rest of the country). But they made an exception for FF, I guess. But nobody knew about it except my friend Keffy who went to see it yesterday and even the guy working at the theatre didn't know it was already out x_o

I figured out another thing that bothered me so much about Tomb Raider. It's that little sneer she has on her face the *entire time*. ai-YAA.

Even though I guess it's cool and stuff that the FF movie isn't based on any of the games, I think it would be groovy to have anime or movies based on them. They did that with... umm, FF4 or something, I don't remember which one, but since I never played that I don't care. I'd really like to see an anime or movie based on FF7...

Also, I think if they ever made a live-action Legend of Zelda, and it was American, then they should go back in time and cast 17-year-old Cary Elwes to play Link. ^____^

I now have a bedtime. _-_()()()() 1 am. I guess that's a good thing since I'm so stupid and stay up until 4 unless someone reminds me to go to bed, but I wish it were 2 instead. Well, I will have to get into normal sleeping patterns *eventually*, so....

Now I want to buy DDR for Playstation XO Let's add THAT to my list of things saving up for... oy. I must get a job. But I really don't want to get a job, because I hate working. But I would like to have money. But I really don't want to work.

There's this German song called "My Hat Has Three Corners" (only the title's in German). I don't remember all the words, but the last two lines are (in German): "If it does not have three corners / Then it is not my hat." Isn't that a great song?!

...there should be a bit of a time delay between this paragraph and the immediately preceding one; about 45 minutes, I suppose. That's because the power magically went out while I was writing o_o (good thing I'd just saved!) and then came back on immediately, then went out again, then came back on. While the PC was running ScanDisk, the power went out AGAIN. So I shut off the power strip and everything and ventured into the rest of the house. It doesn't seem the power went out anywhere at all besides in here... I would think it was just the cable that had gone out, since, of course, while I write this the cable is, you know, out (;o) but the cable going out DOES NOT cause the computer to shut down XÞ ::watches the cable light blink on and off and then go off again for about two more minutes at which point it will start blinking again for a minute or so:: Since I couldn't keep writing this, nor finish my download off DDR 5th mix for PC, nor carry on scintillating conversations with my dear friends Han-chan and Yoshi-senpai, I went and watched the telly instead. I saw the last bit of a Pokemon episode-- I think it was the first of the Johto series? which I hadn't seen before. It was the one where Ash is at home and Tracy decides to stay and at the end they leave again with Brock. Who made up Tracy? He's such a geek o_o Brock is like 42x cooler than Tracy. After that was Batman Beyond, and this nerdy guy named... umm... I forget... had a robotic girlfriend. Named Cynthia. During a commercial break, I switched over to CN and some DBZ thing was playing. Goku yelled "GOHAAAAAN!" and he sounded like a woman. Then I switched back and the commercial was over. ;o As much as I like the manga (really!) the show SUCKS HARDCORE. I also have begun to harbour a... *looks over* HEY! The cable light came back on for real! *gets on AIM* ...... it's not working... *tries loading a website* Bah. The cable light is on, but it LIES. Why does the cable always screw up when the power goes out >_< The data light keeps flashing and distracting me. ...anyway, I have begun to harbour a deep and abiding hatred for people who think they're cool because they spell it "Gokou" instead of "Goku." YOU MORONS. IT'S "GOKUU." This guy that I hate once said "Well, it's the same sound anyway" and I would have hit him over the head with something except that I was talking to him on AIM. ;o For the record, were it written in kana as "Gokou," it would be pronounced "Goko," which a long "o" sound in the second syllable. As it is written using the kana "go ku u," making it GOKUU and not GOKOU, it is pronounced like GOKU, with long "u" sound in the second syllable! By the way, I've seen the name written in furigana, so I'm not mistaken-- it's GOKUU. Not GOKOU. If you have ever used the spelling "Gokou," I will try to find it in my heart to forgive you someday for being STUPID. *tries to get on AIM again* It still doesn't work. What's the point of the cable light being on if it's lying to me?! Curse you, cable light!

Oh yeah, Maxim said I'm wrong about Micky auditioning for Fonzy before the Monkees since apparently Happy Days started after the Monkees ended. *shrug* Guess it was after then. Like I know. o_o Mah favourite is Petah anyway *hugs Peter Tork plushie*

I would like to do a voice on X-Men: Evolution. "Whose voice would you like to do, Silla?" I would like to do the voice of Blink.

Oh yeah. On XM:E, it seems kind of like they're doing a Kurt + Kitty thing, but I don't like that. It creeps me out, and I don't like Kitty on the show. Plus, since watching that show, I really kind of want Kurt and Rogue to get together o_o()()()() Even though it's kind of... semi-wrong... since Kurt IS Mystique's son and Rogue is Mystique's FOSTER daughter... but it's actually not wrong since it's not like she raised either of them (on the show) and they're not BIOLOGICALLY related or anything. I dunno, I just think their XM:E personalities would be sooooo cute together! ^_^ ...of course, I think that Blink should be on the show and she should get together with Nightcrawler. (hohohohoho.)

I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT TO WRITE ABOUT IN MY FAN LETTER TO BRAD SWAILE!! I mean... it just would seem... scary... to put like "Hey what's up I'm totally obsessed with you let's get married!" ... =D()()()()

The cable light is off again. Good for it. There's nothing I hate more than a lying cable light. Except the devil, the phone, and being in trouble.

Ooooooiiii! Chrissy and co. are here! I go now! And post this whenever the cable decides to work again XÞ
