Now entering...

...the busiest part of my summer. I leave for Rosebud Indian Reservation on Sunday and stay there for a week. Coming home, I immediately have to start my malaria medicine, because two weeks after that I go to Belize for a week. AND not quite two weeks after that, our family vacation begins. Two weeks later, as soon as vacation ends, I have that weekend to move into my dorm at UNI before band camp begins that Monday. O.O So busy!!!

Fun with Friends

Last night was incredibly fun. After I took YS1 to work, I went over to my bf's apartment. We hung out, playing Brawl and messing around on the computer with his sister Heather and her bf Josh, until it was time to go see the new X-men movie-- X-men: First Class. Was an awesome movie by the way. Then we all went over to Tasty Tacos for supper. Inappropriate jokes commenced. Tom was ashamed of me cuz I didn't eat my entire taco.

Then we went back to his apartment. After a while, Fleming and Jake showed up. Playing Brawl with these people was amazingly fun, seeing as Fleming totally dominates with Olimar and Tom does the same with Ike. Jake and I aren't quite as good as they are, but I'm pretty sure I'm better than Jake is. ;) There was some awesome trash talk going on. For instance, when Jake said something to Fleming about him being straight, and Fleming (responding without thinking about what exactly had been said) said, "You'd think so, but you'd be wrong." XD Eventually we decided to stop playing, at the point when I, as Kirby, killed Fleming's Olimar. He decided to go cry and eat his frozen custard. Then they played League of Legends for an hour or so before I decided that it was my bedtime and went home. (around 2am) Of course, when I kissed Tom, Jake shouted out, "GAY!" Yeah. Lol.

I have decided that I am definitely going back sometime to hang out with Tom and his friends, seeing as they're so insane. Should prolly learn to play some of the games they constantly play before that point though.

THE END

FuN tImEs!

So, I've recently started using the site omegle.com. For those of you who don't know what it is, it's a site where you get paired with a random stranger to chat. Kind of like Chatroulette. Anyway, it's incredibly entertaining, especially when you start pissing people off. To date, I have seen:
  • A zombie who apparently lost his fingers
  • A horny zombie into bestiality (or just has no idea how to spell)
  • 3 awesome people who are into art and music and had awesome chats with
  • A horny Indian male who had no idea that someone had told him the wrong English (Like, he was using the wrong body parts when he randomly decided to talk dirty. I was greatly confused before I told him to check his English)
  • Two trolls (definition of trolling here)
  • Several people who log off after only a "hi"
  • People who don't want to talk about zombies
  • Someone who asked what my darkest secret was and believed me when I said something about fantasizing about Tigger (EEEEEEWWWWW!!!)
  • Countless horny males who are really annoying
At one point, this idiot starts trying to chat dirty, so I let him go on with some crap, then shout BLUE BALLS!!! and disconnect. He was probably pretty pissed....

Just letting you know what fun you could be having with random strangers. =)

Questions: 2nd Installment

     Why had she told him her name? Nannoc didn't want to know her name. He hadn't wanted to even know that she had a name. Sure, in the back of his mind he subconsciously realized that Lily had a name, a family even, but he didn't want it brought to his attention. It almost made him feel bad. Not to mention it made him think that maybe the others had names too, and that just wasn't acceptable. He had to stop walking at that point until his stomach stopped churning.
     As soon as the nausea passed, Nannoc went to the main meeting room to see if the fire was lit for the evening's meeting yet. The encounter with Li- no, with the girl, had made his blood go cold, and he was looking forward to the heat. The Elder would also announce the new catch and when the ceremony was going to take place, initiating a new member into the People's Adult Society. It was always an awesome time, involving a lot of feasting and drinking, and ending with the high point: the Cutting. The Child who was becoming an Adult would be the one who got to sacrifice one of the millah and then drink the blood to take the strength into themselves. Nannoc was the eldest of the Children this year; perhaps he would get chosen to be the Cutter. He wished he could. He wanted to be considered a worthy part of the People like his friend Eliott.
     Eliott had become an Adult 4 months ago, and now he lorded it over Nannoc. He wouldn't stop bragging about all the things an Adult could do and how Nannoc couldn't do anything like that yet. Before the Cutting 4 months ago, Eliott had been Nannoc's only friend, and now he wanted to become an Adult so that they could be friends again. He hated the lack of equality between them now. When he became an Adult, Eliott would see that he was, in fact, a useful person, and then they could be friends again. For now he had to endure the endless teasing and bragging.
     Arriving in the main room, the center of the caves and tunnels, Nannoc saw that the fire had indeed been lit and people had already started to find their assigned places along the edges of the room. He found his place at the very end of the Children's line, right across the room from the youngest of the Adults. He ignored the superior looks Eliott was giving him, and instead watched the fire intently, waiting for the elder to begin the announcement from the ledge above the fire. Nannoc thought that if you looked just right, the shapes in the ever-changing fire would tell you the story of what was to come. He was sure that he had seen Eliott's Choosing and the catch of a new millah in the last fire during a meeting. Now he earnestly, searching for any clues as to how his own future would play out. For the first time ever, he saw nothing.

Summer

Summer is officially here....and I'm already bored. Apparently without the structure of a school day, I get incredibly bored cuz I have nothing to do. I mean, there are technically a bajillion things I COULD do, they just all seem boring beyond belief. I really hope I don't end up spending my entire summer being bored. I really need a really fun hobby that I can get totally engrossed in. (One that doesn't involve the computer or TV) I suppose I could repeat what I did two summers ago and just ride my bike all over my neighborhood and the one across the street. But I would have to get a completely new tire before that can happen, so that's probably out of the question...for now anyway. Guess for now my little netbook will have to do for entertainment.

Awesome Old People

Yesterday I was at my local COSTCO buying a large bag of Purina dog chow for my loyal pet, Biscuit, the Wonder Dog and was in the checkout line when woman behind me asked if I had a dog. What did she think I had, an elephant?
So since I'm retired and have little to do, on impulse I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Purina Diet again. I added that I probably shouldn't, because I ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms.
I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it works is to load your pants pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete so it works well and I was going to try it again. (I have to mention here that practically everyone in line was now enthralled with my story.)
Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food poisoned me. I told her no. I stepped off a curb to sniff an Irish Setter's ass and a car hit us both. I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack, he was laughing so hard. Costco won't let me shop there anymore.

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way Home...

So, I guess I knew my dog was never very smart, but this time he really surprised me. He managed to fall out of my backseat-window while I was driving 30mph down the road. Emi and I were heading back from picking him up from one daycare parent's house where he had been for the duration of my grad party. Riley really likes to stick the front section of his paws out the window, as well as his head, when he's in the car. He was doing that, like normal, out my half-open back windows. Then I see him put the rest of his legs out the window, resting on the little ledge of car door just beneath the window. I'm watching him, thinking, "Riley!!! Get back in there." I even shouted at him to get back, but he's a dog and doesn't really understand English that well. Then I see him start sliding down my door, and I'm just thinking, "CRAP!!!" I can't roll up the window or anything or he'd end up stuck half-in, half-out my window, hanging from my car. The best I could do was watch as he slowly slid and ended up falling out, then slamming on my brakes and my hazards. Emi got out quickly to round him up and put him back in the car as I rolled the windows all the way up then. A car pulled up behind us (we were in the middle of the road at this point) and they were laughing to see Emi putting Riley back in the car. Finally we got back on the way, and my dog seemed none the worse for wear, so we were relieved. Now we have a story about how stupid my dog really is.
