The concert kicked butt!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol I loved it! I want to see Aaron live again! :) Maybe I'll get lucky and he'll hit the WA state fair or something. He's going to the Oregon one so why not WA too I say? lol ;) I can hope. Oh, it so rocked though! lol He was awesome and I had a blast. Oh, and I lied. Mike didn't go with me. I guess he was talking just as I was doing my last post to everyone else saying he didn't really want to go and Kev piped up and said he would. His reasoning was that there'd be a lot of girls and not many guys so they'd all go for him. lmao Boy was he funny as heck the whole time! *falls off of chair thinking about it* Holy cow! lol And then when we were walking back to the car afterwards, some girl said he was hott so he gave her one of the free winterfresh breath strip packages he got. lmao I was like leaning over laughing as we walked because it just came out of nowhere and it was hilarious. lol So, anyway, I'll try and start from the beginning and see if I can remember everything. :)
So, Kevin and I left to get there around 5:30 PM. We stopped at an AM/PM to get some snacks on the way and I was going to get a disposable camera in case they wouldn't let me bring in my digital, but they wanted freakin' $11 for it and I was all like, you know, I'd rather just not have any pictures at all. lol So, we went and found a parking spot and then walked over to get in line. There were a fair amount of people already there waiting, but we were still decently far up in line. After we'd been standing there for a while these girls came up behind us saying Aaron was in back eating and meeting some of the fans and whatnot. I automatically figured he wasn't there anymore so I stood there and thought for a bit if I wanted to walk back there or not. lol Finally, I decided, sure why not, and did. And sure enough, I turn the edge of the corner and there he is sitting and eating. lmao I thought I'd just take a pic or two so I walked down the barrier a ways to try for a better view and then he got up and ran to meet someone. On his way back, I snapped a quick shot. I thought it was just going to be of him jogging back, but since it was my digital camera and it takes a few seconds after you hit the button to actually take the picture, I got him when he made a jump and he's frozen up in mid-air! It is the funniest picture! lol I love it. ;) Then a took a few of him when he sat down and started to walk back towards Kevin, but I stopped for a minute because these girls were yelling at him saying, "Aaron, we want your fork!" roflmao Boy, did I ever get a kick out of that, but then it got even funnier. lol So, he heard them you know, and he turns to his side and licks down the back of the fork, bites whatever was on it and then turns back to continue eating! HAHA! I love that kid, he's funny. :D
So, Kevin and I are waiting in line and gradually we kept moving closer and closer toward the gates because the security was moving the line into a big grouping. So, we get up near the Radio Disney booth and we're standing there talking and waiting and the booth starts a trivia contest. Well, I only knew the answers to a few things they asked and the prizes sucked anyway, so I just sort of watched and laughed. Then the second time they did that, they asked who Aaron's favorite actor is and I didn't know, but Kevin goes, Arnold S.(because I can't spell his last name, but all of you know who I'm talking about anyway, the "I'll be back" guy. lol) and he was right! lmao And he was just joking too. It was funny and he could have won an Aaron Carter doll had he said it out louder. lmao Then I asked him what the heck he would have done with the doll. He said he'd have given it to me and I was all like, I don't want it. lol So then he sticks his hand up in mock style and goes "five dolla, five dolla." lol Man, Kevin was half the fun at that concert. ;) lol
After a while we finally got let in and they didn't even check my purse or anything! lol So, yay for me and my digi cam! lol It was a really small place. Especially since I've only ever been to concerts at big arenas and whatnot. Our tickets were on tier 3(each tier like went up a few feet from the last in elevation), but there was no one checking tickets for tier 2, so we went there instead. :D lol Hey, the tickets were all the same price, so why not, right? We went to see if we could get down to 1 right in front of the stage, but they were checking those ones. Blarg. But we got a pretty darn good spot on the railing of tier 2 on the right side. :D
After a while the opening acts came out and the first chick was, egh, all right I guess. The second had a nice voice, but the songs she was singing sucked. The last one she sang was the only decent one, in my opinion. Then this guy named Greg came out and he was pretty good. I think I might even look into getting his CD when it comes out. I loved his stage presense though! lol He was just jumpin' around and really into his songs and everything, and I love it when they're like that. lol It's like, Daniel Beddingfield(sp? on the last name) when he performs. lol He's friggin' cool live and always has rad shoes. lol But anyway, so it was mixed with the opening acts, but it was all good I guess. And then finally... Aaron. :D
He came out in a white and sparkly Elvis suit! SHEAH! lol And then he sang Evlis too! I was totally under the impression that he was just going to be singing his songs, but the majority of the concert was covers from all different eras. I just about died and went to heaven when he started singing stuff from the Beach Boys. Oh, it was beautiful and he was wearing a lovely red Hawiian shirt. Yay! lol And he sang stuff from Stevie Wonder, and disco stuff and dang, all sorts of songs I know and love! It was so way rad! lol :D And oh man, when he came out in his 80's outfit the following honestly went right through my head. lol Dang, if I didn't have a thing for his brother, that boy'd be in trouble! lol His hair was lovely too. A really good look for him. :) Now, if Nick would just fix up his hair a TINY bit, life would be good. ;) Hehe. Oh well. Anyway, Aaron sang some Michael Jackson stuff too so I was totally feelin' that. Oh, the whole thing just rocked so much!
Then he made a bow and faked like he was all done and went off the stage for a few minutes. I'm all like, it is not over yet. lol It never is! There's always a little extra. ;) So, he came back out a few minutes later and starting singing some of his stuff so that made me extra happy. :) And he sang "That's How I Beat Shaq" and that song is just fun! Wow, you all must think I'm a freak now. lol But so, that was lots of fun, of course, but then it really was over and the house lights came on. Kevin and I walked around to the back so I could see if I could have the slightest chance of AC signing my CD or something. He came out pretty quick, but he didn't have much time because he had to be going right away, he said. So, he went down the line touching people's hands and he knew a few people so he stopped and hugged them. :) As he came closer to where I was standing I could hear him talking and saying that he had to go quick and whatnot and I thought to myself, it was nice to hear his voice plain and natural, right near me, rather than through speakers. He has a very pleasent voice. :) So, then he jogs by my area and down the line real fast touching everyone's hands, but he missed mine. LMAO I was all like, egh, oh well and I sort of think it was rather funny, just like when Nick missed my hand too. lol Apparently I'm just not allowed to touch any Carter boys. ;) lol
So, Kevin and I left. He claims he was a good boy because he only picked up one phone number there. lol ;) That kid cracks me up, I tell you! And he said he had fun and enjoyed it. He was sort of surprised, it wasn't really like what he'd thought it was going to be and all. So that was nice, he liked it and had a good time there with me. :) We went to Carl's Jr. and got some snackage before coming home. I started looking through the pictures I'd taken while we were waiting for our food and it was then that I realized I'd taken just over 200 pictures! Holy cow, I know! I didn't even realize while the concert was going that I'd taken so many! lol There aren't quite that many now though because some didn't come out so I deleted them already. Then there are some that I'm pretty sure are blurred, but I'll wait to stick them on my computer when I get home and give them a proper check since you can't really tell just with the little LCD screen. :) Some of them though, dang, they came out REALLY good! lol And I've got like 5 or 6 where he's looking right at the camera too! I was all like, SWEET! lol So yes, I can't wait to get home and get them all up on the net to show you all! I was thinking about asking my Aunt to see if her USB cord for her digital camera would work with my camera, but it's too much of a hassel to even bother, I'm sure. So, you will all just have to wait, but I tell you, it's worth it! :D
Woo, this is already a freakin' long post. lol Once I get started, I just keep on going. ;) lol Early, early yesterday morning, there was a nice thunderstorm here. :) I didn't get to see anything, but I was half awake for a bit and heard the thunder and the water coming down on the roof. lol When I woke up in the morning I'd totally forgotten about it though and it wasn't until Mike mentioned it that I remembered. lol I sort of just chilled for a while and then we went to CJ's water polo game. She thought it was at 4 PM, but it wasn't so we were there for quite a while. lol But we had fun. They re-tought me this Canadian card game that I forget the name to. lol They tought me last summer, but since I hadn't played it at all since then, I sort of forgot. lol Now my memory's coming back a bit though. ;) Then the game started. They lost, but CJ had some good saves(she's goalie) and then they put her in the tank during the last period so I got to see her play that way too. :) As soon as the game was done, they had to take me over to my Aunt Maureen's house.
I got there and we sat and waited a bit for a few other family members to arrive. Then we all headed out for dinner. :) It was nice. I got pasta. I really don't like how at these places they give you a huge bowl of pasta when pasta's so filling you can only eat a very small portion of it! lol What's up with that? So, I got to bring a bunch back. lol And I don't know that I'll even eat it. Hopefully someone else will because I didn't particularly like it that much. lol After dinner we went back to their house for a bit and two of my Uncles on that side talked to me about jobs and what to do now, etc. Then I left to come back here. The night was pretty quiet after that. Kev and I played pool and he beat me. lol Then CJ and I talked for a while and finally hit the sack. I slept a LONG time. lol I went to be before midnight and slept until about 11 AM! lol I must have been recouping what's been lost or something. ;) And so far today's been pretty lazy. I made a store errand with my Aunt and CJ, but that's been it. lol And now I'm sitting here typing on the computer. I've been sitting here for a whlie actually. lol This entry's darn long. ;) So, I'll end it here. Tomorrow night we leave for camping so this might very well be my last post for a while. One never knows though. :) Anyway, off I go to check e-mail and do other junk. TTFN!

Well, I'm here in Cali. The flight on Saturday went fine. I got to the airport plenty early and well, we had a bit of fun figuring out how to get my boarding pass because we did it a new way, but we did and it didn't take too long so that was good. Then my mom and I went and sat for a while before I had to go through the screening towards the food and gates. ;) lol When I went through the screening I got to take my shoes off(lmao) and send those through too. Then, I had to stand and wait while the lady went through my coat and purse and sent them back through again. Turns out she thought the little blue light on my keys was something else when she looked at it in the x-ray thingy. lol Don't you just love my knowledge of terminology. ;) Hehehe.
Anyway, I wandered around for a while trying to find a decent place to eat. There wasn't anything really so I just got a little cheese pizza from the Pizza Hut. I was hoping for a sandwhich or something, but the only ones around were pre-made ones with stuff on them that I didn't like. I ate the pizza and went to the bathroom then I sat down and read for a bit before they called my section for boarding. I got on the plane and it was small so there were only two seats on each side of the plane. I didn't get a window seat. :( That I didn't mind too much but the old guy sitting next to me wasn't very considerate and kept "invading my bubble." lol So I sat pushed to the right side of my seat the whole flight. lmao It wasn't too horrible or anything though and I lived. ;) There was also a kid on the plane who looked just like Clinton, a guy at worked with at Taco Bell/Pizza hut. I kept only seeing him from the side, but dang, looked just like Clinton, but he wasn't 'cause he got up during the flight and his face was a bit different. It was funny though! lol
My Aunt and cousin CJ picked me up and we dropped CJ off at her friend's sweet sixteen party on our way to the house. And I was pleasantly surprised when my Grandma and Grandpa came over for dinner. :) I had figured I'd probably see them sometime on Sat or Sun, but I didn't know they were coming to dinner so that was cool. :) And that was basically Saturday. lol Not too much since I got here in the early evening just before dinner time.
Yesterday morning we went to my cousin Kevin's water polo came. His team is in a tournament or something going on right now. They lost, but it was a really good game. For a bit they were on a comeback and it looked like they might pull through and win, but they made a few blunders and didn't quite make it. Really fun to watch though because they had some really good intense periods. :) Then we came back for a while and I watched TV and read some of my book and then we left again for another water polo game of Kev's again! lol They won that one by quite a bit and it was awesome. :) YAY! lol Dang, that boy has got some serious muscles too! lol CJ had him flex and hand me touch his arm and dang... it's rock solid! lmao It was almost scary his muscles are so strong. lol
We came home and ate and did stuff i can't remember. lol Then, at about a quarter to nine, CJ and I went to meet some of her friends for a movie. Oh yeah, and before I forget. CJ and I have also played a lot of pool since I've been here. lol I just remembered that. Anyway, so we met her friends and her new boyfriend was there. They just got together Saturday night, so cute. lol He seemed like a very nice good boy though. :) It took us a while, but we finally decided on watching The League of Extrordinary Gentlemen. I was kinda hoping for us to watch Seabiscuit, but they don't have nearly the same taste in movies as I do and they were all like "I'm not really into horses" and whatnot. Weird, I tell ya. lol I'm not big into horses, but I like them and to me, the movie's not about a horse exactly, you know? It's about what happens because of the horse and stuff. But hey, whatever. lol ;) Anyway, LXG was pretty good. I liked it. Not the best movie ever, but it was good for what it was and it kept me interested and therefore, it was good. lol And I love Sean and then Shane West was in it too so that also helped to keep me quite happy. ;) lol But a darn good movie save for the ending. lmao In a sense I love it because I just found it so humorous, but it was just... yeah, not an ending I would have proferred I guess. Enough of my cretique I think. :)
We walked for a bit after that around Downtown Disney(that's where the theatre was) and I decided to go for ice cream at Haagen Daas(sp?). I got a mint chip dazzler and it was farily tasty, but see if I ever get stuff from them again! Rawr. lol I mean, the thing was freakin' $7 which I was okay with, but then they took WAY too long to make it and it was so not worth that much money for the wait and the ice cream. The kid making it took his sweet time too. I watched him and he just dragged his feet along slowly walking back and forth between what he needed then he stopped for a few minutes to do something else that he should have waited to do until he was done with my ice cream. Garg. Why can't people at least take pride in doing their jobs well? I mean, I know a lot of people do, but more don't. At least when I worked in fast food and I didn't really like my job, I still did it well and made sure of that because if you're going to have a job, you'd best to what you're expected. I guess a lot of people don't think that though. So sad.
This morning I woke up to some girls making stupid giggling noises. *rolls eyes* Oy! lol It was one of my cousin's friends that stayed the night. So many people stay the night here all the time, it's funny. lol Anyway, I finally got up from my bed on the floor and started gathering together stuff for a shower and guess what! lmao You're going to love this... My shampoo that I thought would be okay not put into a Ziplock baggy apparently wasn't because it'd poured out all over the bottom of my suitcase and my clothes! Needless to say, I was not happy at all. I'm all right with it now, it's not a big deal and it is rather funny, but I was rather peeved/upset at first. So, I emptied out my bag and stuck the stuff with shampoo on it in the wash and then took the case outside and sprayed it down with the hose. lol It's so warm down here that it only took like 45 minutes to an hour to dry out completely, that was nice. lol It's still sitting out there though 'cause I'm too lazy to go get it and put everything back in it just now. lol I had to tell myself though, and my mom had to tell me too 'cause I called her, not to let that dictate my day. See, I had a bad day on my second night seeing the B&B tour and it soured up my concert experiance. :( I will not let that happen today darnit! lol The concert will be good and fun no matter what and I will love it! :D
It starts at 8:30 tonight and I'm going to probably go a good few hours early. Mike's going with me. He's such a nice cousin. ;) lol A 19 year old guy going to sit through an Aaron Carter concert with me. Good thing I'm his cousin or he never would have done it. ;) lmao All righty, well, I guess I ought to check on my laundry and see if my stuff's dry yet. My concert outfit was among the shampooed clothes so I'm hoping it'll dry up nicely and all will be well, which it should. I should check to see if it needs more time or not though. So yes, off I go and please pray that I have a good time and more stuff does not go wrong today. :) TTFN!
Friday, July 25, 2003
Today I woke up in the early afternoon and got immediately started on recording some more Mini Disks to take with me to Cali for my musical needs. ;) lol Of course, the darn USB interface thing had decided, once again, that it wasn't going to work for me. So, with the help of God, I managed to remember what it was that I'd done last time to fix it('cause you know, I already packed the printed instructions away because I'm dumb like that, lol). So I did that and I fixed that part, but it still wasn't working right. I was getting this loud buzzing sort of noise and you could just BARELY hear the music in the background of the recording. Turns out something or other is loose on my USB cable or the little MD connecter thing. So, after getting a little upset(I was pretty good though and it wasn't as bad as it would have been months ago which is good), God calmed me and gave me the ability to prop up the thing is this odd little position that made it finally work! lol So, I got to record three disks(yay for daddy going and picking me up another pack on his way home!) that all came out nicely and that and my other disks I didn't have packed yet should keep me more than satisfied while I'm away. :)
It took quite a while to do all that so that's most of what I did today. lol I also packed though while they were recording and that too a bit as well because I couldn't figure out which size bag I was going to use. lol Turns out my duffle bag was too big and so I downsized a bit and fit everything in the rolling suitcase. And you know, I figured rolling would be better than lugging my huge duffle bag on my shoulder everywhere anyway. ;) lol
Then of course, I watched Stargate SG-1 with mom. Good episode and the last I'll see for a few weeks since I won't be able to get it camping, I'm sure. lol But you never know, maybe I just don't remember and the TV my cousins bring in the RV gets cable and the SciFi channel. lol Who knows! lol I also finally remembered to have mommy cut my hair for me. :) So, now I can see! lol My bangs are a little shorter than I would have liked, but not as short as they've come out a few times before so all's well! :D Haha! And then I just had her trim a bit off the rest too to mainly get rid of the ends and whatnot.
I get to go see Aaron Carter on Monday! *dances around* It's actually starting to feel like it's really going to happen now so the excitement is starting to stir in me. I have no idea who will be accompaning me though. lol CJ called today and said she's probably got to go to her water polo game so Mike might go with me or it might end up being someone else. I've no idea. She suggested maybe Jessica or Shay(more cousins, I've got lots), but I never asked them before because I'm pretty sure neither of them would want to come. Well, Shay would just for hanging out with me 'cause she's cool, but I don't think Jess would be interested. We'll just have to wait and see I guess.
Camping is going to be way fun too! We're going on a twilight horse ride the first weekend!! :D And I know we'll be doing losts of other stuff too, but that's going to totally rock! I was just saying to a few people that I haven't been on a horse for so long and then the other day my mom got an e-mail from my Uncle and he told her about that. :) I'll be sure to tell you all about it when I get back Sam. ;) Oh yeah, and CJ also told me that Steven is definately going to come for at least a few days! *dances around* I haven't seen him in a LONG time. He's probably bringing his girlfriend and their baby too so I'll get to see them most likely. I think that'll be a little weird, but cool all the same, I hope.
Well, I want to try and convert the Now Or Never fanlisting to PHPfanbase tonight before I go to bed and I'm actually already feeling rather tired so I'd best get off and do that. I'm sure I'll be posting again while I'm in Cali, but there will be a stretch of like a week and a half where there won't be any posts at all because that's when I'll be camping. lol I'll probably post a few times before then though and I'm sure I'll have lots to say after seeing AC as well. :) Anyway, ta ta for now!
Thursday, July 24, 2003
I've lost track of time. lol All day today it felt as though it were Friday and I'd be leaving tomorrow, but it's not, it's Thursday! lol And then I thought I'd posted more this week than I actually have. lmao My poor head. I'll just blame it on the heat or something like that. ;) lol
Yesterday morning I got woken up just before seven. I know, crazily early for me huh? lol I went with my mom to pick out the carpet, lamenent, and counter tops for the new house. :D It was actually pretty fun. lol The carpet for the whole house is teal. Yeah, a little different, but I think it'll be fun when it's actually there and we get to see it and whatnot. And I might end up painting my room a light yellow and a dark burgendy instead of light blue. Just for a change and it would be fun to have those colors in my room and they'd go well with the teal carpet. lol Yeah, I think I'll end up doing that. ;) And I got to pick out all the stuff for my bathroom all on my own. Well, except that my mom found a better countertop pattern so I used that. ;) lol I'd describe the flooring for it, but I don't really know how to go about it. lol I think there will have to be pictures of the inside of the new house when it's all done. :)
Anyway, so that was lots of fun. :) More than I thought it would be for sure. And the guy who helped us was really nice too and didn't try and get us to upgrade and spend WAY more money on anything which is the opposite of what we thought would happen. lol That was a nice and welcome surprise. Then mom and I went to a Rite Aid that was closing and to a dollar store before heading to Wal*Mart. The Wal*Mart we went to didn't have half the stuff I had on my list of things. Blarg. Oh well. But I didn't finally find some new shoes at a K-Mart we stopped at and so far so good with those. :D Oh, and we went looking around for archery equipment stores! YAY! We found one, but they didn't have any recurve bows with the right poundage for me. They had a 40 pound one and a 20 and I need a 30-35 one. We were going to stop at another one, but when we got there, no one was in and there was a be right back sign. That's when we went to K-Mart and then we went back after that, but no one was there still. :( And through their window I saw they had quite a number of recurve bows. :( Guess it just wasn't meant to be then. I've found some other places in the phone book that I'll go by when I get back home. :)
So yeah, yesterday was a great day and I had a very nice time with my mommy. :) I ended up going to work too because they called for extra people since they'd been so busy so far this week. And then I stayed and watched the middle of the movie. lol I missed the beginning because I was cleaning and whatnot since people had been coming late again. And then I was watching the movie in the balcony and I was starting to get sleepy and I was afraid I'd fall asleep and Ben wouldn't notice and would close up and leave me there sleeping. lmao So, I left early to come home. And just like he said before I left, I ended up staying up late anyway. lol I read for quite a while though. And then I had to kill this freaky bug that was in the house. Egh.
Today I woke up in the afternoon, of course. ;) lol I took a shower and then made chicken veggie stir fry for dinner. It wasn't completely finished when I had to leave for work though so I didn't get to have any until I got home. lol But it was tasty. :) And I didn't stay to watch the movie tonight either. I think I might go sometime tomorrow, but I don't know. I was hoping to go see Seabiscuit with Autumn and Andrew tomorrow morning, but Andrew can't and I couldn't get a hold of Autumn at all so I'll have to wait and see if she calls me in the morning or not. lol And hopefully I'll remember to go and buy some more mini disks tomorrow too. I want to make some more to take on my trip and I was stupid and packed all my blank ones away for the move and I have no clue what box they're in. lmao I was going to get some at Wal*Mart, but they didn't have any. Hopefully I won't have to go on too much of an adventure tomorrow to find some and hopefully I'll remember. lol There's some other stuff I've got to try to do as well, plus I need to pack still. lol So many things. It's like, I've been bored and have had lots of time for so long, but this week has just seemed really busy and full of stuff to do and whatnot. Anyway, off I go. TTFN!
Monday, July 21, 2003
Well, I was planning to be sitting in the theatre watching PotC right now, but I'm not. I'm at home instead. lol See, I worked tonight so I was just going to watch it after all the customers had gone in to the theatre, but they took too darn long and I missed the first half an hour so I thought I'd just try again tomorrow when I don't have to work and can get their early and just wait and whatnot. People didn't really start showing up until around 10-15 minutes before the show was supposed to start and then freakin' 200 and something people came through starting then and going until about 15 minutes after the movie had started! There was still a line outside to get tickets after the movie'd been going for a while. The people around here just can't come to the movie on time or something. lol It's too much for them I guess. ;) Hahaha. Oh well, I'll live. I'll just work and watch happy BSB music videos and whatnot for a while.
I actually got up early this morning and I was on time to pick up Tammy and drive her down to her first day of work so that made me happy and thanks to God for it because I would have been ticked at myself if I'd have slept through it or something and let Tammy down. I went to the store while I was out after I dropped her off and bought two cartons of Tropicana Orange Juice and a cheese pizza lunchables for myself. lol Then I came home and decided to watch Home Alone 2 off an old tape we made from when it was on TV years ago. It was good and funny and I hadn't seen it in a while so that was nice. Then I did some computer stuff. I'm working on getting the remainder of my fanlistings that I add to by hand right now into PHPfanbase. I'm currently working on conquering the largest one and I might have it done tonight depending.
Mom came home and asked me to paint some of the walls in the living room. At least they were the smallest ones. :D lol She'd already done the others, there were just a few bits left that I got to do. It didn't take me too long. Just like twenty minutes or something like that. Then I took a shower and went to work and felt really tired because it was almost 90 degrees all day today. Blarg. Washington is NOT supposed to be that warm... period. My body expects that when I go to California so it never seems THAT hot, but up here my body thinks it should be cooler so when it actually gets really warm it feels even warmer to me. I'm sure that only makse sense to me too, but oh well. ;)
Okay, well, I really need a pick-me-up right now so I'm going to go watch my BSB Chapter One DVD and be happy. :D Then after that I'll probably be back on the computer continuing in the transformation to PHPfanbase. At least I found a way to make the conversion go a little faster than how I was doing it so yay for that! lol The fun part's just going to be when I e-mail everyone to tell them the URL's changed and I get a bunch of mail error messages back and have to delete people. lol I've got a feeling that there won't be so many members at Fricked and then Fracked after I've gone through them all. lol Maybe I'll be wrong though, one never knows. Off I go now. Toodles.
Sunday, July 20, 2003
Happy Sunday everyone! :) I feel like I've been up for hours and I'm wearing down for the end of the day, but in all reality, I've only been up for a few hours and I'll be off to work in a while. lol Yesterday at work I didn't end up watching the movie at all. I watched some of it during the first showing while I ate my lunch, but that was it. And I felt like I should come home and do things here instead of staying to watch the second show. Plus, the second show was sold out and I don't know, I don't usually feel like staying when that happens unless I haven't seen the movie yet or something. I'm thinking we might sell-out tonight too and I should probably come home and get some things finished up and done so I won't be staying for the movie tonight either. Probably tomorrow though because it shouldn't be quite so busy. :)
I guess it was a good thing I ended up going to Andrew's play on Friday night too because I wouldn't have been able to watch the movie if I'd gone down to the theatre. lol Why you ask? Because apparently the projector broke half way through the first show so they had to refund everyone who'd come. And then they thought they'd got it fixed so they sold-out the second show, but they couldn't even get the movie to start so they had to refund everyone there too. lol What a bummer. But God smiled down on us yesterday because the first show went fine and as far as I know, the second one did too and hopefully I won't hear different when I get to work today. ;)
Last night/early this morning, I put up both the Ridley Freeborn and Robin Of Locksley fanlistings. :D Now I've got no more currently coming. Well, actually, I was sort of approved for one, but they said it would have to encompass a few more things and not be as specific as it was so I'm thinking on whether I still want it or not. lol Hopefully I'll get some more acceptance e-mails for all the others I'm waiting on soon too. lol And humm... you know, I don't think I'll take that one I was just talking about either. lol Better e-mail them back and let them know soon.
I've got to go to sleep earlier than normal tonight so that I can get up early tomorrow morning. Tammy just got a job, but she still can't drive yet so I told her I'd give her a ride there tomorrow. She doesn't have to be there until 11 AM though so at least I don't have to get up at 7 AM or anything. ;) lol Well, I'd best be off and going. I've gotta get ready and get some more things done. Real quick though, I've got a question.
Do u know Nick Carter's E-Mail address?
No, do you? lmao What's with me getting all these e-mails about Nick and whatnot? I mean, is it because of my layout or do people for some reason think I'm cool enough to know him? lol I don't know him. It would be cool and all if I did, but I don't. lol Never even met him yet. And you know, if I did have his e-mail address it'd be because he gave it to me and I wouldn't be giving it out save maybe to a close friend or two with his permission.
Can I get some questions not about knowing Nick and his e-mail and stuff? lol Oh well, I do find those questions rather amusing though. ;) But yes, off I go now. Ta ta for now!

Well, I'm catching tonight's SG-1 episode on the late end tonight. lol I missed the first one 'cause I was watching Cinderella. :) This episode is rather interesting so far... some alien's took over my Danny boy's body... how rude! lol Anyway, I'm sure you want to know about Andrew's performance as the Prince, and well, if you don't, then just don't read this! lol He did pretty good, but it wasn't what I expected it to be. I hadn't really realized exactly how young most of the cast was and I think it sort of brought Andrew's performance down a bit. He's 19 and most of the kids were closer to 15 and whatnot and it wasn't as well put together as it should have been. Andrew did well though and I enjoyed it. :D It was a little weird for me though because it was sort of based of the Lesley Ann Warren version, which is the one I know and love, but parts of it were from the original Broadway version that I've never seen before. lol So, things were new and re-arranged and it confused me. lol But Andrew was good and the girl who played the Queen was good too. :) Oh, and the girls who played the stepsisters were hilarious! lmao
After the performance, my parents and I waited in the lobby for Andrew to come out. He came out pretty quick. Good thing I called him earlier to tell him we were coming so he knew not to take forever like last time. ;) lol I introduced him to my parents and we talked and then he introduced us all to his parents and we all chatted for a while. It's quite a small world, you know. ;) lol Andrew's dad knew my current chuch Pastor and they're all from Southern California too. lol Not to mention, when I talked to Andrew earlier, we discovered that he was at the last CHIC(Covenant High In Christ) as was I. lol That was pretty funny. Well, I could say more, but I'm quite distracted by SG-1 right now. ;) Hahaha. *turns to watch the TV*
Oh my gosh... It's morning and I'm awake AND ready! lmao I didn't exactly go to sleep that early last night either, but I feel fairly refreashed just the same. I'm going to lunch with Tracey today so I had to make sure I was up by 11. lol And so far, it looks as though I'll be early for meeting her. Yay for me! lol As soon as I woke up(yay for God waking me up just before my alarm was supposed to go off so I didn't have to hear the dang thing, lol) I came out here and flipped on the family computer. lol I don't like to turn mine on for only a little while, but I don't mind doing so with my parent's computer. lol Anyway, the schedule's finally online and I don't work tonight. So, it looks like tonight might be the night I go see Andrew's play with my parents. I already called and told my mom, we've just got to run it by my dad to see what he thinks. I think it should be all right though. If not, I'll go watch PotC once or twice today down at the theatre. lol Well, I'd best be off for lunch. My tummy's telling me it's time to go too. ;) Hehehe. Ta ta!

Woo! I just put up a pretty pretty Will Turner layout over at Scandalicio.us, which, by the way, I just launched as well! :D Everyone please go and check it out. I'm quite enjoying staring at that layout. lol It's simple, but oh so pretty and somewhat fancy at the same time. ;) lol I know, I don't make sense, but maybe it comes off the same to you as well when you look at it.
Other than that, nothing much new. My schedule for work next week is STILL not up! The schedule's go from Friday to Thursday and today is Thursday and therefore no one knows if they work tomorrow or not. This is just total crap. They said they had the schedule done on Tuesday night when I was there to watch Bruce Almighty so why does it take so long for them to upload it? I think perhaps I'll have to offer my services just so that I can know at a decent time when I work. lol I mean, there's really no reason it should take them so long to get it put up on the webpage and it's not fair to all of us employees because we can't plan anything since we don't know when we work. Blarg. I just needed to get that out. Anyway, off I go! G'night!
Wednesday, July 16, 2003
I spent about five hours today cleaning my room. It's a LOT cleaner that it was before. lol I also packed a total of six more boxes too. I never knew how much stuff there really was in my room. lmao Oh yeah, and I took down one of my bookshelves too so there's this great long gap on the side of my room with nothing there but the wall and carpet. lol My floor's been vaccumed up too so now it looks all pretty and there's nothing just lying about on it. Well, my scanner's still on the floor, but there's no where else to put it for the moment so it just gets to stay there. lol
Last night I did end up going to watch Bruce Almighty all by my lonesome. *sniffs* Oh well, I tend to do that a lot with movies and come next week with PotC playing I'm probably going to be there by myself most of the nights too. lol Well, I guess not totally by myself because we're pretty sure it's going to do well and a lot of people will come, but yeah, you know what I mean. ;) lol I was told last night that the schedule's been done, but they haven't posted it on the net yet so I don't know what nights I'm working and whatnot. Andrew's play opens tomorrow night so there'd just better be a night I'm off work when there's another performance. :) I'd go tomorrow night, but Andrew told us a while back that he didn't want us to go on opening night in case there were any problems. lol
Last night I also did the layout for Scandalicio.us. :D It's got, drumroll please... WILL TURNER on it!!!! :D YAY! lol And I quite like the way it came out. It's fairly simple, but with a little bit of fancy twist to it I guess you could say. :) It'll either be up tonight or tomorrow I'm sure. I've got it all coded, but now I've just got to do the lovely, lovely content parts. Oh, and I need to figure out how exactly I'm doing the navigation. lol Shouldn't be too much of a problem though. ;) Well, off I go now. Gotta do some web stuff and then I'm gonna read for a while before I go to bed again. TTFN!
Tuesday, July 15, 2003
Well, let's see... Sunday night I went and saw Pirates of the Caribbean again! lol I took Tammy to the 10:20 PM show. lol There was this one guy a few rows over that was amusing to me because when something cool happened, he's just have this great sound that he'd make in triumph. lol It was rad. Tammy said she didn't like some stuff about it though! I know! How strange is that? lol I LOVE it though. ;) And I love my Will's chest. lol Damn, I can't get over that. Haha.
Yesterday my Aaron tickets came in the mail! WOOP! *dances a jig* I'm really gonna get to go! I've been waiting since 1998 to go and see Aaron in concert. That's a freakin' long time! lol The only thing though is that CJ might not be able to go with me and Mike might have to go with me instead. lol As it was, I didn't think CJ would go with me, but she said she would and that was exciting, but if she has to go to her water polo game than it's probably going to be me and Mike. lol And don't get me wrong, I love Mike, but it'll be weird for me to scream "I love you Aaron!" with him standing next to me, you know? lol I'd probably never hear the end of it. ;) As long as I get there early and get as close to the stage as I possibly can(general admission tickets) then I won't be bothered by anything else. :D And I really am just plain excited I get to go. No one seems to quite understand my enthusiasm though... sad really.
Guess what I found out at work last night! Go, on... guess what movie we're getting on Friday! lol PotC!!!!!!!! YAY!!!! I get to go watch it a whole bunch of times before I leave for vacation! *dances* I think I'm probably going to watch it almost every night if I can. ;) lol I know I probably can't watch it at least one of the nights though because I'm going to see Andrew as Prince Charming in a rendision of Cinderella. :) Actually, I'm watching that right now. lol My new DVD of the old version with Lesley Ann Warren in it. This is the best one. I'm trying to learn all the songs too which I why I bought the soundtrack as well. ;) It's not working too good right now though because my CD player is dead and I still haven't gotten a new CD Alarm Clock thing. And I still can't really bring myself to play anything other than Now Or Never in my car. lol I mean, I've put other CDs in a few times, but they never stayed in more than a few hours. lol It appears that Nick's music is my official driving music. ;) Hehehe.
I think I'll probably go down and watch Bruce Almighty tonight. I was going to wait until tomorrow, but I think I'd rather go tonight. I was hoping my mom and maybe dad too would go with me, but they both claim to be too tired or not up to it. I don't know that excuse for movies never seems quite right to me because I relax to movies, but I guess maybe other people don't, I don't know. lol Tomorrow's going to be devoted to cleaning my room and working on the site for the guy from church though. If I get a lot accomplished with those then perhaps I'll work on some other stuff. I want to make a Will Turner layout to launch Scandalicio.us with. I think I'll work on that when I get home tonight. I was going to do it just now while I waited for movie time to roll around, but I got distracted by posts over at The Streeted Forums. lol I've got over 200 posts over there now. I'm so proud of myself. ;) lmao Well, I'd best be off now. I think this post is long enough and I've pretty much said all that can be said for the time being. ;) Ta ta!
Sunday, July 13, 2003
I just got back from the baseball game(Mariners vs. Devil Rays) and the Mariners whooped the Devil Rays' butts 13-2! lol YEAH! And you know what, this is the first time I think the Mariners have ever won when I've gone to see them! Pretty cool and exciting if you ask me. ;) We had 6 runs in the first inning. lol I felt sort of bad for the Devil Rays' pitcher though 'cause Lou pulled him in the first inning. Ouch. For those of you that don't know, probably most of you, the current coach/manager/whatever for the Devil Rays used to be that for the Mariners. lol So the game was pretty good, but I was a bit bored part of the time. Hardly anyone from church went this year where as usually in past years there's been quite a few. Blarg. So I didn't really get to chat with anyone and to top it off, I had this bad pain just below my ribs the entire time. lol I feel better now though. I'm either going to go watch Bruce Almighty down at the theatre or take Tammy to go see Pirates of the Caribbean later. Speak of PotC, there's a guy on the Mariners now who's last name is Bloomquist and every time he was up to bat or I looked over at the batting line-up on the score board I thought of Orlando Bloom which made me think of Will Turner and in turn made me think of Pirates of the Caribbean. lol I think that's why I've got the desire to go and see it again tonight. ;)
Well, now that I'm home I'm slightly aggitated. Active is being stupid to me once AGAIN. I'm moving all my domains I had with them over to my Netrillium resellers account and I've just got this last one left to do. Well, they registered this particular domain(red-berri.net) for me so I e-mailed them to get my login info for it so I can change the DNS to the new server and not have any e-mail down-time. They e-mailed me back saying that I needed to cancel my account first. I e-mailed back saying that I understand that and I'm going to cancel my account, but I don't want any down-time so I'd like to change the nameservers before you delete everything. The following is their stupid, piss-me-off reply.
You can not do this as we purchased and manage the domain for you. You will need to cancel the hosting, pay your account up to date and then issue any name server changes that you would like.
Is that not total B.S. or what?! I mean, if I cancel my account after I transfer my domain they get a little extra money out of me and it's not like the domain is tied into their hosting system or any B.S. like that. *hits them on the forehead* You know, I used to like their hosting, but a few months ago they decided to be completely stupid to me and now I dislike them and I strongly reccomend that no one get hosting through them because they suck! There we go, I feel much better now that I've gotten that out of me. :) Garg though. So, no one try to e-mail me at a @red-berri.net e-mail for a few days as I won't get it. lol I'll post on here when the DNS has propigated completely to the new server. Stupid Active...
Humm... I can't recall if there was anything else I felt like posting about so, ta ta! lol ;)
Thursday, July 10, 2003
Woo! I went and saw Pirates of the Caribbean again last night!!! lol Twice on opening day, oh what fun it was! Autumn, Andrea, and Heidi went with me to the 10:20 PM show. Dang, there were a LOT of good looking guys at that show! lmao It's so true though. lol And it was even BETTER the second time and it just freakin' kicks butt! And in the course of watching it the second time... I suddenly realized that Orlando Bloom has got one pretty, pretty chest! Oh, I had a major complex over it. lol The whole movie and afterwards it was just like oooh... I want me a Will Turner with a pretty, pretty chest. lol And I'm not a big chest person either... it was funny. ;) Andrea and Heidi ended up spending the night and we talked about the movie a bit and watched some TV and had snacks before we went to sleep. Then, of course, they woke up early and made me get up too. lol Andrea had to go home and then Heidi and I watched The Mummy Returns. I know I had a few dreams about PotC last night, but I can't remember them except that I know I had some. Anyway, after Heidi got picked up I decided to go lay down and take a nap or at least rest for a bit. Somehow I ended up staying in bed until 9:30 PM. I don't know how I did that, but I did. Anyway, I'm going to do some stuff and then I think I might actually go to bed. For some reason I still feel a bit tired so I guess maybe I'm making up for lack of sleep lately. Anyway, off I go, ta ta!

WARNING! This entry contains light spoilers for Pirates of the Caribbean! So, if you've not seen it yet(shame, go I say!) and don't want to know some of the things that happen, then do not read on past this post. ;)
Wow! Major complex on Pirates of the Caribbean now! lmao This movie KICKS my butt man! lol It was so much fun and so well done and it was funny and oh, it was just so great! lol And they had so much stuff from the ride in there and they put it in so well too! They had the guys in the jail trying to entice the dog with the key into giving them it and everything! lol Now next time I go to Disneyland, I'll have to pay extra close attention to the ride to see if there's some other stuff I didn't notice in the movie. ;)
Speaking of rides and movies, there was a preview for a new movie they're doing on the Haunted Mansion. It looks good, but I'm not sure I like that they have Eddie Murphy cast in it. I mean, he's funny and a good actor, but I don't know that I can see him starring in that. But I'll go and see it anyway because they had a lot of stuff from that ride in it too. ;) lol And I love that ride as well. I wonder which ride they'll make into a movie next? Hahaha.
I also have newfound respect for Orlando Bloom because I LOVE him as Will Turner! Oh much love and heart to Will Turner. ;) lol I was going to apply for that FL(as well as some others) just now, but apps are closed for the book & movie characters catigory right now so I'll have to keep an eye on it so I can apply as soon as the form opens back up! lol I did apply for the fanlisting for the movie itself though and also for a fanlisting for the Black Pearl. :D Hope I get them! lol I'd be very excited and happy. ;)
Ah, the movie was so great though! They did an awesome job on everything and the effects were great too! All the stuff with the cursed pirates and when the moonlight hits them is great. There's a few scenes where they move in and out of the moonlight and they do an awesome job making them turn from human to skeleton and back and forth through the rays of light. I love it! lol And, of course, the ending was happy and made me do a little happy dance in my seat. lol I won't say too much more about anything though. ;)
Anyway, I very much enjoyed the movie. lol Both Autumn and Andrew ended up going to see it with me so that was nice. :) It was funny the first time we say Orlando as Will some girl yelled out that he's so hott. lmao Everybody laughed. I'm not a big Orlando Bloom fan, but I WAY heart him as Will Turner! Oh yeah baby! Heh. :) After the movie, Andrew had to run because he was late for something so Autumn and I went to go exchange my CD Alarm Clock and just as I expected, they didn't have any others in stock. The same thing happened when I bought a TV from there and had to exchange it. I had to go back a few times before I could get it... arg. lol So, this time I just took the refund and went to Target to see if they had one, but they only had one kind and it was too expensive. So, this means a trip to Wal*Mart next chance I get. lol And now I'm without a CD player again save for the computer which is what I'm using right now.
I got my Cinderella DVD and CD soundtrack in the mail today so that was happy too! :D Now I'm just waiting to get my Aaron tickets. I REALLY hope I get them before I leave for Cali. I should, but there's always that slight chance I won't and will have to find a way to deal with that and get the tickets down there. lol Hopefully I won't have to have fun and deal with that though. ;) All right, well, off I am now to go eat and then there's work later. I want to go and see Pirates of the Caribbean again tonight if I can, but I'm thinking I'm probably not going to be able to. lol I can still try for it though. ;) TTFN!
Tuesday, July 8, 2003
Well, guess who's going to go and see Pirates of the Caribbean tomorrow! lol ME! :D I'm so excited! I think we need to ressurect the phrases "'Ello Poppet" and "Bonnie Lass." lol Yup, yup. ;) I don't think anyone will go along with me on it for long though. lol Heidi and I did have quite the fun time with the first of the two phrases at work tonight though. We got it stuck in our heads so every few minutes we'd turn to each other and say it and laugh. lol I hope we didn't freak out any of the customers too much. ;) Then we both had to go into the theatre and watch the preview for it because it's just too cool. It's funny though, Heidi thinks the pirates are scarry when they turn into the skeletons and I just think it's cool. lol Does that make me strange and a bit odd? Well, either way, I still think they're cool. ;)
Humm... the tag board must DIE!!! It's making me have pop-ups on my site now and that's just mean, evil, and wrong. Does anyone know where I can get my own script for one of those things instead of having the stupid free one? I'll have to go looking around. I used to have a link to one, but I don't know if it's still in my favorites list or not. I think that will be my mission tomorrow or something after I get home from the movie or later after work.
I worked some on the site for the guy at my chruch today. I really don't want to do anything more on it, but I feel like I have to stay commited and get it all setup for him even if I don't really want to. Maybe God will bless me and have me be able to complete it really quickly. :D I hope and pray. It's just a bit too boring for me and it's like, not creative enough. I mean, look at all my layouts that I make for my sites and then imagine me trying to make something "professional" with minimal images for fast loading time on all connection speeds. It's a bit limiting.
I also worked on the layout for Scandalicio.us, my fanlisting collective, but I'm not sure if I quite like it. It doesn't look like it looked in my head so I don't know if I'll decide to come up with something different or not. Humm, but I don't know, looking at it again if I do a few things I think I could make it look rather cool. It's definately got an interesting color combination though. lol And I don't know why I went with the colors that I did, but for some strange, strange reason, it made sense to me while I was making it. lol
Well, I'd best be off now. Despite the fact that I couldn't get a hold of Andrew and he never called me back again and that when I called Autumn earlier, she wasn't home, I will still be going to the movie tomorrow morning. lol I think it's lucky for me that I'm one of those people that can go to a movie by themselves no problem. I know some people who can't go unless they can get someone to go with them and that's just sad because then they're going to miss out on seeing some movies every once in a while. I love movies. I've been thinking more lately about career options since, you know, I guess I should, and I don't know... I'd like to do something to do with movies and/or music because I love them both, but I don't know what. Well, except that I want to be the voice of an animated character and I want to design the CD cover and jacket for one of my fave singers/groups. ;) lol How I'm going to manage those things, I don't know, but I need to try and find out! lol Well, nighty night!

I'm not a machine, no you can't control me
Don't just think you can turn me on and off as you please
I'm not a machine, you're making me over-heat
Love me for who I am not who you want me to be
I'm not a machine...
Youngstown, "Machine"
I really like that song. It's got an awesome beat and music too it and the lyrics are really strong. Dang though, the cover of that frickin' CD freaks the heck out of me! lol I had to actually pull the CD jacket out of the case, flip it over and put in upside down so I don't have to see the picture every time I pick it up. lol Why's it freaky? Well, Dallas is wearing this black leather pants that tie up in the front and are WAY too low and yeah... SCARY! lol There's another picture inside the jacket where Sammy's wearing pants almost just like the one Dallas has on the cover and that one freaks me out too, but at least I don't have to look at it every time I pick up the dang CD! lol Oh yeah, and I know their names because, once upon a time, I was going to make a Youngstown fansite with someone on the net. lol I've actually still got the layout on my hard drive even though the site never went up. lmao
Anyway, it's about time for me to go to bed now, but I thought I'd post first. ;) lol At least I had a sort of purpose for staying up all night tonight. It's true. I was productive and I've got proof, but it'd be no fun later if I showed you now. ;) I worked on Streeted.net for a good number of hours. I got the layout coded and I actually got a lot of stuff uploaded. :D There's still more to do though so it won't be opening back up just yet. I'm thinking I'll open it after I get back from California because it'll probably be ready before I leave, but I don't want to open it right before I go on vacation, you know?
Speaking of domains and whatnot, I'm having DNS problems with my accounts at Netrillium right now. The DNS is working just fine for all of my domains that are currently setup, but I've been trying to setup a few new ones for the past week and a half and even after the DNS had more than enough time to resolve, it still wasn't working. They were trying to tell me at first that it was because my custom nameservers are not ns.whatever.com like they're "supposed" to be, but they don't have to be. I prefered to make mine a little more creative. ;) And that's not the problem because they're working for all my domains that are currently up there. lol So, I've sent them another support request and I even did some research to see what might be wrong, although that's their job. *rolls eyes* I'm pretty darn sure it's a problem with the DNS on their end, but we'll see once it finally gets fixed... someday.
Sorry for all of that babble in webbie tech talk. lol I just needed to get that out there even if it confuses everyone else. ;) Haha. Humm... I should go to sleep, but I have an overwhelming desire to watch a movie. I don't know. I just gotta make sure I'm up and energized enough later tonight to watch SG-1 for four hours. Maybe I'll start a movie and see how that goes. I've had some people ask me what there is for me to do that makes me stay up late and that's not what it is... I just do it, I sort-of can't help it. I just don't want to go to bed. And then in the morning(figuratively speaking) I don't want to get up. I think it has something to do with the fact that I've got pretty much nothing going on in my life right now and I feel like there's no reason to go to bed and get up. See, why pay a counselor when I can figure out the reason for all these things myself based on deductive reasoning and things I've heard from Oprah and Dr. Phil. lmao ;)
There was something else that I wanted to post about and I can't remember what it was for the life of me right now. I still need to work on finishing the site stuff for the guy from my church. It's hard because he doesn't really know what he wants everything to look like and it just leaving it up to me, but I have this fear of my clients not liking what I've done after I've put a lot of time and effort into it. Hopefully I can get it finished up soon so I can stop dealing with it. Well, if I hadn't completely learned before that I don't like making professional sites for pay, I think I've definately learned it now. I don't have the drive to make sites for things I don't give a crud about. lol All right, off I go. I'm pretty sure I'm going to start a movie. I know I need sleep and this lack of it will come back to me in a day or two, but at the same time I don't really FEEL tired or want to go to sleep. I might decide to make myself try anyway though. Okay, enough of this all, g'night/morning. lol ;)
Saturday, July 5, 2003
Hope everyone had a good 4th yesterday. :) Well, for all the Americans who celebrate it anyway. ;) I woke up very late and did a bunch of nothing for most of the day. lol Hook was on the Dinsney Channel so I watched that and that took up a fair portion of what was left of my "day." lol And I went to bed early! I was in bed and asleep before 2 AM! Yay for me! lol I know, everyone thinks I'm a freak for being up all night long all the time. But I wasn't last night. :)
I got up this morning and my mom and I went and saw Legally Blonde 2. :) It was funny and good so of course I liked it. ;) lol Then my mom and I went over to the music store because there was an extra sale today for the holiday weekend and since everything's already on sale because they're closing, I got some darn good deals! lol I ended up spending over $50 though. lol I got a lot of used CDs that were all 75%, but I also got 3 new ones and one new DVD so those were all only 40% and that's what the over $50 came from. Man, it was great though! lol I got Youngstown's second CD for 12 cents!!! lmao No like! I just think that's darn friggin' cool! lol And it's a pretty good CD. ;) It's about the only one I've listened to so far out of what I got. Actually, I've had the songs on it I really like repeating for most of the night while I was cleaning my room. ;) lol I also played my Jake Simpson CD on the way to the theatre earlier this afternoon. I doubt many, if any, of you know who he is, but he won the adult singer catigory on Star Search the first season it was back on air recently and he's darn good. :)
Oh yes, but so I went to the theatre and I watched the movie. We're playing The Italian Job right now and I didn't really want to see it, but I figured it was free so why not, right? lol And you know what, I really liked it. That movie is awesome and I have a bit of a thing for Seth Green again. ;) lmao I also liked the guy who played Charlie, he looked a LOT like Matt Damon. lol Anyway, good movie and it really keeps you into it the whole time so I reccomend going to see that one if you can. :D Now, let me back track to earlier for a bit more details.
When we got to the theatre where we saw Legally Blonde 2, we had to wait in line a bit for tickets and then we got them and went in. Well, you know those ticket-taker people? The guy who was doing that told me I was very beautiful. :D lol It took me a second to realize what he'd said because it sure as heck isn't something I hear from guys very often. ;) lol And then I was all like, thanks. lol I felt special. :D After the movie and going to get CDs, we went to Fred Meyer and I bought a CD alarm clock radio. See, my CD player in my boom box seems to have bit the dust and I've been wanting one of those alarm clock things for a while so I thought I'd get one. :) It was $40 which isn't bad, I don't think. lol I didn't really look around before going shopping for that, but I like it and it packs some wallop with the little speakers it's got, I tell ya! Then we went to Home Depot so mom could get more paint for the outside of the new house. We ended up stopping back by the property so I could see how the house was coming along and I got to walk through my room for the first time. Mom decided not to let me choose so I have to have the room by the bathroom. lol It'll be fine though even though I'm not too crazy about it's door being RIGHT next to the bathroom door. I don't know why, I just would prefer that it wasn't, but my mom seems to think that's a benefit. lol Whatever. ;)
After that, I went to watch The Italian Job like I mentioned above. Then I came home and started working on my room. I packed two more boxes and guess what! You can see my floor! lmao It really does exist! lmao It's rather icky and dirty looking though so it's being vaccuumed tomorrow after I get back from church. lol It was too late to do it tonight because the 'rents decided they were going to go to bed. And now, well, I'm working on ONE of my paid site projects. I've sort of got two now, but one of them is just modification for a previous client. So, now I get to do a little coding and upload a bunch of pictures so that'll take a while. lol And I want some honey toast. :) Anyway, I'd best be off to do those things now. Ta ta!

Let's see... the last few days have consisted of a lot of sleeping, some working, and some doing nothing. lol And a lot of staying up WAY later than I should, but that's sort of regular right now. I think tonight I'll go to bed a bit earlier than normal. lol I'm hungry right now so I think I'll go eat after I post this and watch a short movie and then I'll be ready for bed. :) Only thing is, what am I going to eat? Arg. I'll have to do some searching in the kitchen I do believe. lol
I have done some good things in the last few days. I succeeded in making a new layout for Streeted.net that I'm actually happy with! lol It still needs coding and then I've got to get everything together and organized. What fun. lol Hopefully I can be good and get that done sometime soon. Maybe before I go to Cali, who knows. I also launched the Atlantis fanlisting today... erh... yesterday. lol ;) I couldn't find any good pictures to use so I resorted to just brushes and colors and text. I think it turned out rather pretty though so I'm not complaining. ;) I also put up a new layout over at shininstar.net. :D It's really simple, but I WAY heart it. lol Probably because it's got Ewan on it as Catcher Block from Down With Love. lol That movie is so great! I love it! I wonder when it's coming to DVD? *ponders* Oh yes, and there IS a guestbook over at shininstar.net under the extra section, so please go sign it. :) It would make me really happy! lol
Well, I'd best be off now. After I eat, watch my movie, and sleep, I get to get up and do, I don't know... stuff, and then it's off to work on the paid site with John. We're going to try and figure out the shopping cart system his host has. lol Ooh... I also need to do some updating for another site that I'll get paid for when I'm finished. I need to add images to their gallery. I'll have to do that when I get up in the morning or something. Okay, well, off I go. TTYL!
