Well, it occured to me yesterday, that it is now 19 days until I leave for Japan. In 19 days I will be living in a different country, with none of my family, friends, or pets. Yes, it's enough to make me upset. Oh, don't get me wrong. I really want to do it. I am going to do it. It's just a little harder to say goodbye then I thought it would be. I think I'm going to have some get together so that I can say goodbye to everyone. Don't know when that might be. If anyone reading this has suggestions let me know. It has to be in Hartford though, so sorry. Don't worry Abby if you can come I'll find a way to get you here.

I've been really busy this week hence lack of posting. Sorry. I saw Abby, and Anthony, but I posted about that. Then I saw Caitlin and she bought a Joey deck to duel with. She's just naturally good at all things related to Konami. I swear. She needs to buy a few more booster packs though. Then the next day she invited me over to go boating with her and play more duel monsters. We did both. She keeps saying I tried to drown her, but really I didn't. I got to watch her get up on water skis for the first time. I also got to ski. My dad will kill me when he finds out I went water skiing with someone else, but won't go with him.

Then Caitlin decided to braid my hair. That was cool. It took awhile, but it was cool. She watched an episode of Trigun. We were waiting for Wolfwood to bring out his cross punisher thing, but it never happened. Vash did sing a weird, but intersting song though. Which I hear is just not has funny in the Japanese version. Then yesterday I went back to Caitlin's to duel some more. She bought booster packs. She braided my hair again. We watched Star Trek. I went home and watched the Hours with my Mom.

Okay, that was my week. I've played a lot of duel monsters. Yesterday, I looked funny because I took Caitlin's braids out, and my hair went poofy. Caitlin has a picture of my hair like that. If you really want it, e-mail her. I'm not posting it here.

Oh, and hopfully next week sometime I'm going to go to State Fair with Abby, and whoever else decides to come with us. I should call her about that.

One more thing. Good Luck to Funny Cide in the Haskell today!

I got to see Abby today. It made me very happy. And Anthony. When I first got to Abby's house no one was home so I went to BN and got the second Stephanie Plum book because my Dad left it and the third one on the plane coming back from Atlanta. They didn't have the third one or I would have gotten it too. Then I went back to Abby's house. Abby wasn't there, but her Mom was. I sat around for about half an hour then Abby called and told me to come to Anthony's house. I managed that fine. Abby and Maria were playing Duel Monsters outside waiting for me. Watched that for awhile. Then Maria left because she had to go to work.

Abby, Anthony, and I spent the afternoon playing duel monsters and watching Yami no Matsuei. I just love Hisoka. Muraki is soooo evil for what he did to poor sweet Hisoka. Hijiri is okay, but really I think he's just a cute kid who's overly talented and the only reason Tsuzuki really liked him was because he looked so much like Hisoka, but didn't insult him all the time.

Anyway, I got to see the P brand on Abby's arm. It looks painful, but I guess it isn't except for at random times when Abby says it is. They (Abby and Anthony) think I'm crazy for liking Will more then Jack, but I look at it on the bright side. At least I don't dislike Jack. That's a good thing. Abby told Anthony about X and now they are going to watch it. Darn. I like X. I wish I could watch it to. Maybe I should download it or something.

Tomorrow, Caitlin and I are going to play DDR and I might teach her how to play Duel Monsters. We shall see. After the game I played with Abby today, I don't think teaching anyone is a great idea, but I'll try.

Okay, Omi (Caitlin) didn't remember the Penny Arcade website so she went and did a search and came up with all these websites I had to go visit and quizes I had to take. So for those of you who were wondering who to blame for this...That's who to blame. Okay?

Thwack
What's Your Anime Power?

I've come to take you.
What character from a creepy anime are you?

Anyway,those are the only two I feel like doing today because I have to go and get ready to see Abby.

Current Mood: amused

Today, I had something to do. It was a nice change. Caitlin had her party. First we played Dance Dance Revolution. Let me tell you, Caitlin has gotten good. Really good. She tried to kill me, and more then once too. I did eventually get revenge by making her do healing vision without her getting to say anything, but I don't think she was that impressed.

I also got to ride Caitlin's moped again. That's fun, except for when the bugs hit you. That is less fun. Plus, I wasn't the worst one there at DDR because Mel had never played before. Then there was the treasure hunt thing. Beth and I really did try to follow her clues, but we got a little lost, and skipped like five of them, not to mention that we went out of order. Plus, running up and down Caitlin's driveway isn't that much fun. In the end I have a frog. It's all sparkly.

After this we watched the WeiB DVD with them playing rock, paper, siccisors. At first no one wanted to play because they didn't get it. In the end it was a big hit. Although there was a small problem with people trying to grab both things at once. After that it was more DDR. So my day was very full, and by the time I got home I was exhausted. Six hours of DDR, running around, and playing the WeiB version of RPS. I can't wait until I can sleep.

Tomorrow is county fair! I hope the tigers are there again this year. I get to watch the Draft Horse comitition as well. Finally, some horses. Oh, and I passed Exotic Ethnic. For anyone who knows what that means.

Current Mood: exhausted

Just for the record, all eggs are bad. Anyway, I went and saw Pirates for a second time tonight. I really like that movie. I'm soo happy they're making a sequal. Which if all goes well shouldn't come out until I'm back from Japan so I can see it. Anyway, my Dad went with me to see Pirates, but he got there late. This means he doesn't understand any of the movie. He was even confused as to who the bad guys were, and weren't. It was very hard to keep having to explain things to him. Missing the first 15 minutes of a movie is a bad thing. We stayed for the end and watched the part with the monkey. You have to watch the extra 20 minutes of credits to see the cool monkey part, which lasts less then one minute, but I guess it was worth it. That movie does give me a new respect for Depp and his acting skills. You'd never know that he was 40. I still like Orlando Bloom better though.

Tomorrow is Caitlin's Dance Dance Revolution party. I'm taking a camera. I also get to atempt to teach at least four people how to play rock, paper, sisscors Weib style. Yes, for those of you who have seen the DVD, that is what I'm talking about. Yes, I will eventually have pictures. Somehow.

Saturday I also get to go to Ren. Fair with Caitlin. Caitlin now signs all her e-mail as Omi. It's very cute. Finally, someone took to their nickname.

Well, I think that's about it. I have to go find someone who wants to see Pirates with me next week.

I just got back from Atlanta yesterday night. It was lots of fun, and I do have lots to say about it, but not yet. Maybe tomorrow. I just wanted to say that it was fun. And that the hot hummid and hurry part of the above was very true.

Atlanta is very hot and very humid. Very bad for standing around waiting for the Marta or the bus, or walking to and from dinner. Then you went inside and it was freezing. Lost and Found decided and I agree with them that the coldest place in the US isn't WI or MN in winter, but Atlanta indoors in summer. It's very true. It was cold. However, usually what you were doing was distracting enough to keep your mind off of it...not always though.

Oh, and Missy helped me go through my deck of Yu-gi-oh cards. So maybe I know what I'm doing now. We even started to play before we boarded a flight..I was winning.

That's all for now.

You can tell I'm bored, and am deliberatly putting off packing can't you? I can. Anyway, the results of more quizes are below. I decided to share them to invite others to comment. Don't ask me why, I have no reason. And for some reason I wrote Yami on my foot in blue highlighter. I really hope it washes off.

You represent... angst.
You have an extremely cynical outlook on just about
everything. It's okay to sulk and be
depressed, but life is short, and you only get
one. It's only what you make it, and only you
can make it improve.

What feeling do you represent?

I think I'm going to hurt myself. NO, not really. I just took a Mars character quiz. I need to stop, this isn't good for me. I always knew I was crazy (People tell me enough), but this might be too far.

Kirishima Makio He represents danger. This guy is
completely crazy, is obsessed by Rei and wants
to kill everybody around him. He already killed
his best friend and now lives into a mental
hospital. He almost kills Kira when he
strangles her on the roof of their highschool.
He even shoved some girls down an escalator at
the subway when they accidentally stepped on
his foot.

Happy, the only quiz results that I've really liked so far.

You're Rath! The yokai of the 3 dragonknights. Rath
is secretly in pain, but he hides it behind a
goofy grin. He has a passion for demon hunting,
and he's kind of a hothead. He definatly hates
getting dressed up. He hasn't told either Thatz
or Rune that he's a yokai, which is why
"Sore wa himitsu desu!" suits him so
well.

Okay last one for the next few weeks. Yami no Matsuei character. Also resutls that I like.

Kurosaki Hisoka: You're rather antisocial, but
that doesn't keep you from caring about others.
You only let a select few get close to you, and
you trust them above anything else. A good
book and a quiet place to read are what you
enjoy the most, and though you don't really
like sweets, you do appreciate a cup of hot
cocoa. You value efficiency and competence and
absolutely hate incompetence and hypocrites.
You find it difficult to express yourself or
show that you care, and generally keep from
other people. Also, it's hard for you to
believe that other people actually care about
you. You may have experienced trauma at some
time in your life and you really do need all
those little signs of affection and need from
others.

I have nothing else to do, so I foolishly once more persisted in my persuit of anime character information. Needless to say after taking the anime sterotype quiz I was laughing very hard. Yeah, you'll understand if you see the results.

What Anime Stereotype Are You?

Okay, I was going to post more, but I have to go clean. Not to mention the results were to scary to consider posting. Haley even ran out of the room.

I took the Arcana quiz again because I just couldn't believe I was Caine. Well, I'm not. I'm Tobias. Sadly, and much to my distress Caine is still my second choice. Why me? Anyway, that's all for today folks. Read Arcana, it's very good.

My #1 result for the SelectSmart.com selector, Arcana Cast Selector, is Tobias

Current Mood: annoyed

So today was very boring. I got done sleeping and took Sara to work. Then I sat around and read Golden Fool. Yet another good book. Why must Fitz be such a stupid guy? I don't know why I'm suprised though, all guys are stupid, or well at least most of them. Grrrrr. Anyway, then I picked Sara up from work and took her down to see Eva she's going to Six Flags tomorrow. Then because my car doesn't have air conditioning I stopped to get something to drink at a Barnes and Nobles. So I sat and I read some more.

Demon Diaries number two: Good, Eclipse is sooo pretty. Okay, no Eclipse is hot, Ranef is just pretty. Those two are really hot together. It needs more interaction between the two of them though. The last one was better for developing a relationship between the two of them. Oh well, maybe in the next book.

Then for some reason I read the end of Wish. Maybe because Kohaku (I think that's the angel's name) was orginally supposed to be a guy. Anyway, yeah, not a good serries. Probably better in it's orginal form. The Devils are cool though.

Then I was reading the new Kushiel book which is still in hardcover. That is a good serries. Sadly it's a trilogy. Sigh.

I came home and wanted to see a movie, but no one is home to see it with me, and it's too late for mom to go with me. Sigh. So that's out.

I also wanted to see Abby, but she's busy being Anthony's slave. However, in her own words she's not a very good one. I hope to see her when I get back from Atlanta. As much as I want to go to Japan like right now, I'm glad I have more time to spend with my friends. Now if I could only get Melanie to have time to go and get pocky...must start plotting.

Current Mood: lonely

You know I got no sleep this weekend. Like really. And yet here I am still awake. This is not good, or at least I don't think it's good. I would really like to be sleeping. Maybe I should go to bed then.

Anyway, Grand Rapids was a lot of fun. I got to meet people from literally all over the world. I had a really good roommate Juliette. She was from France. I also got to met someone from my district of Japan. His name is Yuki and he lives in Yokohama Japan. That was nice. Oh, and Laura. She was awsome. She's going to Mexico, but we have so much in common. She knew what I was talking about when I brought up anime (I forget how). Anyway, we read a lot of the same books so she gave me a book list.

Well, that's all I really feel like saying at the momment. I'm very sleepy. I'm going to go sleep. If someone wants to do something tomorrow they should call before 2:00, but after 11:30. I have to bring Sara (take Sara) to Milwaukee.

Current Mood: drained
Current Music: bleah

I needed a subject and so Omi is the subject. Chances are if you're reading this you know that Omi is Caitlin because Abby couldn't remember her name. For some reason I decided to name a post after her. I hope she feels honored. She probably won't. Caitlin actually got to see her first anime serries. She watched one episode of Gundam Wing so she could see how annoying Relena was, and she agrees Relena is annoying. She also watched WeiB so she could see who Omi is. She thinks she is Omi. Really, it's very amusing. At least her moped isn't pink. I guess it was going to be teal at one point though. We went to Maxwell Street Days for lunch, that was fun. I saw a Yu-gi-oh T-shirt with the Dark Magician and the Chaos Mage on it. Which I think I just spelled wrong. Shame on me. Anyway, that was interesting.

I was going to go play capture the flag with Abby, but that got canceled. Abby then called, and said that Anthony had lost duel monsters to Maria and had to watch Billy Elliot and did I want to come. Of course. So I drove down to Milwaukee. Bad traffic. I sat for like 1/2 and hour going no where. It wasn't fun. Then I got to Abby's house and we sat around waiting for awhile for Anthony to call. Then we went to his house, and Abby and I played against him for at duel monsters for starburst (the sour kind). He lost. I thank Abby for that, because I never would have done it on my own. Really. So, I think I know what I'm doing now, I hope at one point to duel alone against someone and win. Maybe I can con Ann or someone going to Atlanta to buy a dueling deck and I can practice on them. I doubt it. Anyway, then we watched half an hour of Billy Elliot before I had to go home. I bought milk, but I dropped it trying to get into my house and it broke open. That should be fun to explain.

Well, I leave tomorrow for Grand Rapids so I won't be able to update for awhile. Oh, and Caitlin made me a necklace from all my starburst wrappers. It's cool.

Current Mood: good
Current Music: Silence

So, Abby came over to spend the night yesterday, and we got to watch Billy Elliot. Finally, I was so happy. I kept hearing good stuff about it, but I didn't know anything because I'd never seen it. Anyway, I also bought Yugi's duel monster deck, and Abby tried to teach me how to play. I'm really bad, like bad in an extream way. I bought more booster decks in an atempt to improve my chances to not lose so badly, we'll see how that goes. I might get to go play capture the flag with her tomorrow.

Abby and I went to Best Buy with Caitlin, and then to her house to play DDR. Caitlin is pretty good, I'm really bad. So Abby and Caitlin did well while I did really bad. I think I passed one song. So I have to work on improving my DDR skills as well. I don't know anyone who's as bad at DDR as I am. Maybe, I could beat Caitlin at Yu-gi-oh. I doubt it. I have no skills, it almost makes me afraid to play capture the flag tomorrow. I feel bad for whoever is on my team.

Tomorrow I'm also going to Maxwell Street Days assuming that it doesn't rain to much. Let's hope for no rain. The weather forcast I heard didn't sound very hopfull though. Must go sleep.

Current Mood: tired

You know for some reason when I take quizes I'd like to think that my personality shines through as different from those of my friends, because for all that we are alike we are different. Maybe we just both have a thing for fire. Anyway, I took the Yu-gi-oh card quiz and came out with, you guessed it the Dark Magician. I really don't know how. I just answered the questions. He doesn't even wear black, or at least not that much black.

The Dark Magician!!

Wich Yu-Gi-Oh monster cards are you?

So there it is. Not that different after all. I hope I get to go play DDR tomorrow, but I don't know if I will. Hopfully before Thursday at least. Now I feel like taking more quizes. Why me? So I guess that's what I'm going to go and do now, is take quizes.

So I decided to take a WeiB Kreuz image song quiz. It was only three questions long. I fear the result. Anyway, I have an update on what happened on my temporary trip down south, where it was very hot, but I'll save that for another time. Like when I have time. My book didn't come while I was gone and I'm sad. I still have other stuff to read though so I suppose it's okay. My computer is acting funny. Apparently I am Blue Mask. Okay.

You are... Blue Mask. You're a lone wolf,
separating yourself from others both mentally
and physically. "No one. No one. Hitori de

alone.)

We have no subject today unless you want to count me asking why there must always be one. Yeah, nothing to type. Nothing to do, I'm bored again. Actually, I still have to clean and mow the lawn, but the lawn mower isn't working right, and I lack the needed skills to fix it. Yeah, I don't want to set anything of fire, or actually break the chain. Speaking of the chain, I saw Melanie today and forgot to tell her about the broken rollar coaster in MD yesterday! Gah, I have to tell Caitlin too. We who adore all things pocky also adore all things about broken rollar coasters. I feel better now. Okay, that's all I have to say. Oh, and my book order came in, or well part of it. I can now read the Assassin serries. (I'm doing a happy dance, and you have no idea how happy I am that none of you can see it.) Okay, that really is it.

Current Mood: excited
Current Music: Baby's on Fire (But I don't know how it happened!)

I generally don't like to talk all that much. I prefer e-mail, and stuff like this. Not to mention when talking about what to do the next day I usually get told a whole list of things to do. So I remained silent, and instead of having my Mom tell me a whole list of things to do, Sara signed me up for a whole list of things to do and then claimed I was just mad because she was being more mature and she knew it. Then my Dad threw in that I was trying to be her mother again. She's telling me what to do, how am I her mother? Anyway, it's nice to know what my family thinks of me, they've agreed to let me rename myself dirt. At least it's less common then my real name. I'm thinking unworthy dirt has a better sound to it though. So grrrrr. Yeah, I don't think I'll post again until next Monday as I'm now going to be busy tomorrow, and I leave on Thursday. Eight to nine hours in a car with people who think of me as dirt, I can't wait for this weekend, it's going to be sooo much fun.

Current Mood: gloomy

In a fit of fancy I decided to join SNAG. It stands for Sesshoumaru- Not a Girl. Apparently more then a few people have mistaken the Inu Youkai for a girl, which is just wrong. I'm really bored. I have stuff I should be doing, but I decided to do this instead. So, that's what the banner is for.

Current Mood: bored
Current Music: none

Well, today didn't turn out to be that bad. I got to spend a lot of time just reading. This would have been better if I had been able to read something I hadn't read before, but I suppose beggers can't be chosers. So I sat outside with Haley and read for awhile. Haley wasn't really crazy about this as it was hot out and she's covered in fur so she was really hot. She really likes sleeping on top of the air conditioning vents, it's kinda cute. Anyway, after reading outside for awhile I went inside and read, and then Dad came home and we went out on the boat, where I read some more. I figure I should get some sun so I'm not so pale when I go to Japan. I mean I'm pale, really pale. I don't really care, but my sister has informed me that it doesn't look that great and so in this case I'll listen to her.

I really want my book order to come in. Really, you have no idea. Well, that's my day, I'm sorry to say that nothing really interesting happened. Although, I did almost rip my toenail off getting out of the boat, that really didn't feel good. Oh, and for Abby your x story is below.

Kamui: Wai, my life sucks, my best friend is evil and his sister is stalking me in my dreams.

Subuaru: Poor Kamui (gives Kamui a hug) Don't worry, I want to die, but I'll help you.

Fumma shows up, Kamui and Subaru kill Fumma. They run off happily into the sunset and are never seen again.

There, I hope you're happy now.

I think I'm going to recover, somehow. Both my parents rejected the idea of sending me for therapy so I'll have to recover without professional help, but I think I'll manage somehow. Oh, one thing I did remember that I forgot to tell anyone who might have cared yesterday is the guy who plays their manager is Allen Cummings (That's probably spelled wrong) and he plays Nightcrawler in X2. I like him as Nightcrawler sooooo much better. Although, I'm not much of a fan of X2, I thought that was pretty much almost as bad as Jose. They should have just killed Jean and let everyone dance in her guts. That would have been a good ending. Anyway, I have nothing to do today, but take Sara to work. I think I'll go down to Milwaukee tomorrow and get my sweater back from Abby. I miss my sweater, only it's too hot to wear it so maybe I should leave it there for awhile. Nah, I might need to take that one to Japan. Alright, that's all for now I'm going to go and try and learn more Japanese with what remains of my brain.

Current Mood: groggy

Well, in a forced show of sisterly solidarity (as my Mother called it) I was forced (if I objected again they were going to tie me down, I saw the ropes) to watch Jose and the Pussycats. I am reporting my trama to you first, and then I am going to get therapy. Intensive therapy, and a room next to Farfie. I don't think you could get a movie with less of a plot then that (wait I take that back there's always the Fast and The Furious). My head hurts. I watched half my brain come out of my ears, and it was not fun. Makes me wish I was a mummy, at least they were dead when their brains were forcably removed. My spelling is even worse then normal, and I completly blame what happened on that stupid movie. Grrrr, next time I'll let them tie me down and I'll spend the entire time screaming. The movie is oddly hypnotic though, I only agreed to watch ten minutes but it lulls you in with it's stupidity you keep thinking it can't be as stupid as it is and it gets better, but it doesn't. It just gets worse. I have to go listen to good music now, and possibly watch anime to get the mind scarring images of that movie out of my head. There just aren't words for the horror.
