I now have 195 userpics. Thanks, LJ!

So we saw Spamalot last night. It was just as awesome the second time around. Oh my stars...there's a lot of stuff I didn't remember seeing in there the first time. But as before, you could tell the people who had seen it because things would happen, and they would just start cheering before the actual joke even came about. See also: the French Taunter.

I must also point out that during the "Lancelot" musical number, there's a part where they snap their fingers. And I actually leaned over to [livejournal.com profile] kaitodoushi and whispered GAY SNAP! Thanks a lot, Professor Layton fandom XD ILU~

We had a great time at dinner, and the show was, of course, amazing. But the best part for me was seeing my mom enjoy it. She is NOT a fan of the original movie, but she was cracking up left and right at the show. It was great! And Dad likes the movie, so he went in sure he would like it, and by golly, he did!



When we saw it in Des Moines, the Knights Who Up Until Recently Nii said "Eki eki eki pitang *more jibberish* EXPECTO PATRONUM!" as it was about t-minus three hours to the release of the seventh Harry Potter book. Well, when they did it here, they did the jibberish, and then went "Siouxland Cyclones Hawkeyes OKOBOJI!" Okoboji is a lake here in Iowa, and is a popular weekend vacation spot during the summer.

...and then he went on and said that sometimes being a giant made him so depressed that he wanted to shoot himself in the leg. And everybody did the "Oooooooh!" thing XD

When they found the grail, they brought the person who's seat it was under up on the stage, and told this young man (who I'm sure was glad he dressed for the occasion in sweatpants and a shirt that did not match), they told him he would go down in the annals of our town, along with Mayor [name] and Famous Dave's BBQ.

...who says Iowans don't know how to party? XD



In other news, I am not good at the anonymous thing, since apparently everyone knows I'm writing it XDD Although apparently some people were like, "It looks like Candy's writing. That's her style...but it can't be her, she doesn't ship that pairing!" *laugh* Oh well, I'm having fun writing it!

And finally, I am currently nursing was very much look like chemical burns on the backs of my hands, and a couple of small ones on my cheeks. At least, my mom says they look like chemical burns, and my manager at work looked downright alarmed when I showed him.



We have this cleaner called Spitfire. Really powerful stuff. One of the cooks has been having some bad reactions to it. Well, today I was cleaning one of the cooler doors, and I used a bit of the stuff on the hard-to-scrub spots. Let it be known that I have *never* had any sort of reaction to this stuff, or anything else back there at work. I've used it lots of times, and it's never bothered me (unless the surface was hot and I got the fumes in the face, which could knock you flat). I don't have sensitive skin or anything.

Not longer after doing this, I went to the bathroom. While I was washing my hands, I noticed that the backs of them were kind of red. I didn't think too much of it, since I'd had the water a little too hot anyway. But then later, when I was taking off my gloves, I noticed that they were REALLY red, and it was sort of flecked, like the droplets in a spray pattern. That's when I showed Chong, and we called Manager down.

...I don't know if we got a bad batch or they changed the formula or something, but it sounds like quite a few people have started having reactions to the stuff. Rashes, burns like mine, even breathing difficulties. Manager looked really alarmed, and said that we should stop using it and tell others to not use it while they look into it.

It's...a little freaky, to be honest @_@



I have tomorrow off, yay! Need to practice some piano. And [livejournal.com profile] dia_aren_marie? I'm finally getting my ass in gear and getting back on that Layton script XD My computer decided to eat the file before, but I'm cranking along on take two! Also, rumor has it that we're going to get the second game sometime in 2009. PLEASE GOD LET IT BE TRUE.

...okay. Will stop babbling now~ *toodles away*
