*blink*

It's been a while. I apologize.

My stupid internet card is acting up again. Currently it refuses to join the network because it is not "secure". Before this it had a poor connection despite a prime location on the doorknob of my office... and because of said crappy connection, I could not even download my mail inbox at yahoo. Thus, I have been separated from my beloved internet for many a day... sniff. *huggy*

So, Monday and Tuesday was the ever exciting going-over-to-Eric's-to-play-D&D-but-not-actually-playing. Nick, having moved and not left a phone number or address... is unavailable. Every one else we could think of either didn't have a phone number or wasn't there or would have laughed and pointed. On Wednesday we finally gave up and Eric made another character, so we played.

On Thursday I loafed around the house. Played Kingdom Hearts, I believe, and leveled my character from level 77 to level 88. Hooray. And he now has the ultimate weapon. It's not like it really matters; I already know I can beat the game...

On Friday, my father left for his vacation in Wisconsin. About half an hour later, me and my mom headed to Nathan's apartment. We wandered about in his neighborhood for 15 minutes before giving up and calling him to tell him to come outside. Why the hell does he have to live in such a confusing location? Ah, well, I expect it's temporary. After picking him up... we get a call on the way to Nikki's from my daddy.

He says... "Can I talk to Mom?" (he sounds grumpy.) Me: "Um... she's driving right now." Dad: "What are you DOING?" (shock and dismay.) Me: "We're going over to Nikki's." Dad: "Oh.... right." (sounds depressed.) Mom: "Did he miss his plane?" (to me; dad can't hear.) Me: "What's up?" Dad: "I missed my plane." Me: "You missed your plane?" Mom: (sighs.)

So, in suspense, I left with Nathan, and mom left with my cell phone. Anyways, Nathan pulls an x-box out of his pocket (ok, his backpack) and we play Halo (aaargh, not again) where I got 3 kills! Wow! And Nikki got none. And Nathan got 8. Aargh... so then we switched to capture the flag, and since Nikki couldn't kill Nathan she shot me to death. Dammit. So I killed her too. HAH! Take that, you backstabber!!!

Eh, well, we also played Gotham, where Nathan seemed to enjoy crashing into me to give Nikki a head start... Anyways, after sitting through some rockies video (what the heck?) We drove Nathan home, and then Nikki came over to my house. Me, mom, and Nikki went out to Chevy's (yum... we all got different quesadillas) and then watched Pirates of the Caribbean! Yo ho, yo ho. Orlando Bloom is cute... and Johnny Depp was just awesome. Heh.

K, then yesterday, with no father to chastise us, me and mom played video games ALL BLOODY DAY. We worked on FF7... got from right after the first reactor (when you're in sector 7 for the first time) up to meeting aeris and going back to sector 7 (right before it goes plooey). Then we played DOAX some more, and got more swimsuits. Then played volleyball against each other wearing different team suits. Yep.

Anyways, today mom decided we shouldn't be so irresponsible (darn) and woke me up at 7. Then I walked the dog. Then we went on a walk. Then I took my shower. Then I rebaked my snickerdoodles (I too, made snickerdoodles. Half were pinwheels, all curly, and maybe a fourth were experimental. The other fourth remains in batter form in the freezer) since the experimental ones were underdone to the point of being raw inside. Ick. At about 1 we went out and I drove around (to Smoky, where I practiced, then back to Buckley, up to Iliff, over to Blackhawk, then to Sweet Tomatoes) and we ate lunch (at Sweet Tomatoes), and then I drove some more (to the Safeway at Hampden and Tower) and we grocery-shopped, and then I drove home.

So, that's everything up to now... I think. Eh, well, if I missed anything perhaps I'll write it down later.
