Lots to cover in one entry...
Jul. 21st, 2007 02:24 pm*waves* Hello, everyone! Feels like it's been ages since I've been on the site...but I've got quite a bit to report! *cracks knuckles*
First off--
kaitodoushi and anyone else who likes Ouran? Our prayers have been answered. So long as Vic Minogna is Tamaki, I'll be good! He nailed Femio in Princess Tutu, he can totally play Tama-chan :DDD
Secondly, regarding the loaning of my Harry Potter book: I asked my mother where my books were, and she told me that Ashley had book one. I just stared at her and started to say something, but she cut me off by asking me why I referred to them as MY books. I replied that they were my books because I bought them. She tried to tell me I was wrong, while even Dad is saying, "I think she's right."
At which point I tallied it off. "Mom, you borrowed book one from me, you borrowed book two from me, you borrowed book three from me, you chewed me out for buying book five in paperback because you said I shouldn't be spending the money, and we have two copies of book six, one of which is mine. The only one you paid for is book four. The rest are mine, and I'd like them back."
She stared at me, while Dad says, "Touche!" Also turns out that they got a copy of book seven...and Mom is a cheater. She went and looked at the last page. Said it was only half a page, but it told her everything she needed to know.
Long story short, book one is back in my hands as of around noon-ish, and I'm already halfway through it, though I haven't been reading consistently. Been sort of all over the place today, since my uncle is apparently coming up from Texas to visit. We've known about this for a couple of days...but no one seems to think to tell me things anymore.
And now, the real treat...SPAMALOT!
The trip up there was relatively uneventful...except for one incident. We pulled into the left lane to let this black pick-up truck onto the road. He starts speeding up, and pretty soon is almost even with us. AND THEN HE STARTS MOVING OVER INTO OUR LANE. INTO THE SPACE THAT WE ARE CURRENTLY OCCUPYING. I think I screamed--not sure--but I know I leaned on the horn...AND HE KEEPS COMING OVER. I swerved onto the shoulder and hit the breaks, and he kept speeding along like he hadn't just run us off the road.
We eventually caught up to him. It was an older guy...talking on his cell phone. I was really tempted to honk and make some sort of obscene gesture, but instead I just got the hell away from him.
( And remember--what happens in Camelot STAYS in Camelot! )
NOTE TO SELF: Figure out a way to torment Kaito with the Scandinavian "Fish Schlapping Song." I know it can be done...
