Whoops, forgot to post for a month and a half. BUT WHAT AN EXCITING MONTH AND A HALF IT HAS BEEN

So the first week I got back from school, we had the following adventures:

The GET A NEW TV AND ENTERTAINMENT CENTER AND REARRANGE THE LIVINGROOM adventure
The GET A NEW REFRIGERATOR AND MOVE OTHER FRIDGES UP AND DOWN THE SCARY RUSTY BACK STAIRS adventure
The GET NEW COUCHES AND YET AGAIN REARRANGE THE LIVING ROOM adventure
The GET CLOTHES FROM FRIENDS AND LEAH HAS A WHOLE NEW WARDROBE adventure
The NEVER EVER HAPPENED BIG LOTS PARKINGLOT adventure

Then it calmed down somewhat, but it as still been exciting. Other exciting things that have happened in the past month or so:

My brothers got one of those big inflate-the-ring-at-the-top pools from Rite Aid
Rebekah and I got a crapload of new clothes
Sarah and Leah both celebrated their birthdays; cake was had by all
Rebekah finished Drivers' Ed
Mom finally had the baby; Andrew looks like my grandfather
My grandmother flew in for a week

Things that are not exciting but I am mentioning anyway:

I watched more cartoons (Flapjack, Duck Dodgers) which is SO HELPFUL
I drew some but not a lot
My laptop cord broke and I had to buy a new one

Things happening in the near future:

My grandmother flies back to New York on Tuesday
New York vacation in a WEEK AND A HALF YEEEEAH
Online summer classes start in two weeks (lame!)
Sammy's birthday on the 23rd
Seth's birthday on the 9th
Sola in MI in July
My birthday on the 29th

GOOD TIMES

Okay, things of interest that have happened since I posted something meaningful:

-Got sunburned twice: once over Easter weekend (left arm, what) and once last weekend (right arm, [what] face and back of calves) which was ridiculous and super annoying. I have poison ivy medication and not sunscreen. That's smart.

-Had a chorus concert on the 21st, which went pretty well. And then we didn't have to go to any more class meetings. So that was fantastic. Less class: always awesome.

-Finished out my Legal Environment of Business class and my Financial Information Systems (accounting) class as well, so that's great. Projected grades: A and B, I believe. Not too bad, I think.

-Got pulled over for expired registration; the plate said it expired in February but the registration itself said April. Which is annoying. Oh well, we got it renewed and I'm getting my fancy new sticker and papers from Dad tomorrow.



Things of questionable interest that don't really matter in the long run but I wanted to mention:

-Spent about 45 minutes curling my hair for Easter. Curling hair should not take that long. I don't even have that much, dear god. Oh well, at least it looked fabulous.

-Rediscovered Deep Purple. I think I listened to Hush on repeat for about 5 hours a few days ago. Good times.

-Started drawing FOR SERIOUS again, with a pencil portrait. Except it's not done. BUT IT WILL BE. It's turning out pretty well, aside from the eyes which I screwed up yet again. Ah well.

-Got super bored and watched Flushed Away because I am on a stop-motion kick. (THANKS CORALINE) Except it's in CGI. It looked kind of... weird. Like uncanny valley for stop-motion I guess. Diagnosis: nothing special. Though the makeout scene I was braced for didn't happen, so it gets points for that (CHICKEN RUN I AM LOOKING AT YOU D:) Also, the music they chose was FANTASTIC. Opening with Billy Idol and following up with Jet? YES PLEASE.


Thing that I am mentioning that really does matter but I pretend it doesn't:

-Procrastinating on homework. BUT THAT IS NOTHING NEW

Went home for Easter, which was awesome except for the yard work part and the fact that my allergies went berserk.

I was going to post something else but I forgot.

Instead, ROBERT PALMER, RIGHT THERE, YOU GUYS:

(to the right of Bubastis' head and under the Mac ad)

A nice big SCREW YOU to all the writers for House. Just... screw you.

I am so angry that I am going to stop watching your show and watch Grey's Anatomy instead. That is how furious I am.

Screw you.



And of course, the 2:16 mark on this video made everything a million times worse.



At least the episode of Chuck yesterday was awesome.



(apologies for making a blog post of nothing except tv/movies. but it is SERIOUS BUSINESS)

http://www.zafehouse.com/

Been playing that for the past day or so; still haven't won but it's a fun way to kill time.

Except I put custom names in there and I get sad when the cool people die. (NO HOLLIS NO NOT AGAIN)



Bizarre thing of the week: while watching TV, I noticed that when people make out, their noses squish together weirdly and it is really gross and not hot at all.

My mind is shot from awesome. So instead of just screaming how much I loved the movie (a lot) or what I disliked about the movie (also a lot) I will just say one thing.

THIS

MADE THE MOVIE FOR ME:



If you missed it, I might have to disown you. Just saying.



(unrelated sidenote: last night I dreamed that matthew had a crush on a girl and Barney Stinson stole her from him, and so I screamed at Barney. [also ethan was there playing some video game with us and I thought he had taken off his soaked sweatpants and put them on the kitchen table.] THE END)

For those who asked (aka Rachel E):



Mmmyep.

(oh yeah and possibly going to see Watchmen on Thursday. woooooo)

First thing: my phone charger cord broke. This means that, until further notice, my phone doesn't work. So if you want to get in touch with me, email or Facebook is the best bet.

Second thing: CORALINE.

WAS.

AWESOME.

I am SO going to get the DVD when it comes out. Fantastic, fantastic movie.

(Optional) Third thing: For anyone who has seen Watchmen, what did you *not* like about it? I need a reason to not want to see it RIGHT NOW.

So I'm pretty sure I'm mostly if not almost completely better today!

Also, I found an unopened box of poptarts in my desk!

Today = Good day.

(still can't sing but you win some you lose some)

OH YEAH AND I GET NEW GLASSES NEXT WEEEEEEK

AND BEKAH AND I ARE GOING TO GO SEE CORALINE

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH

Who was the person who decided to make berry-flavored Propel water taste like berry Children's Motrin.

Because I would like to shoot them in the face multiple times.

That seriously ruined my day.

(ETA: Hey, this is my 200th post! Who knew I could actually keep my blog alive that long.)
