all hail the cactuar

... which, I'm sure, is copyrighted by good ol' Squenix. However, I don't think that picture would be, as it's based on a photograph of my cactuar plushy. Hooray!

Mom got a new stereo installed in her car. It's got FM/AM and a cd player (of course), XM radio, and mp3 and wma playback. Plus it's got one of those nifty displays that light up in all sorts of psychedelic ways.

We went to Attactix today, and while I flipped through the psionics handbook and searched for purple borealis dice, my mom bought about 30 booster packs for Magic. Two guys next to her started commenting on it and joking around, and they asked if she wanted to come to the tournament. Apparently they have one every friday. We didn't go, but it might be fun to go one of these days. At least, if I don't have anything else I want to do instead.

But, oh god, the horror. I spent two hours today with Parsons going over my extended essay. Apparently, I have to rewrite half of it. How fun. But, since he didn't want to hand over the essay with so much to redraft, he's kept it and is holding it hostage while he figures out how I should rework it (without having to rewrite everything). I'll go retrieve it tomorrow at noonish. That ought to be fun. Want to go to Borders, Nikki? Sadly, the poor man is meeting with a student tomorrow too. I kind of feel bad for preventing him from having a life for two hours, especially if he has to do it with more than one person.

Hmph. I've been somewhat worried ever since I read Taifur's blog. What did I miss? One would presume that it's not that big of a deal, though, or somebody would have talked about it. Meh.
