...baby.*snickers*

Anyway, mom was having trouble trying to download a song from iTunes last night. It's been awhile she she did it, and so she had thought she lost it. I told her to show me what she did. So she went through all the steps and then I figured out why she couldn't find the song on her hard drive. She didn't download it like she thought she had. She did the second time. Then she tried to burn it onto a disk, but the format was one of those m4p's instead of an mp3, so she couldn't do it. So she had to download a converter that would allow her to do it.

Tonight is our movie night and it's my turn to pick, so I'm gonna pick "The Mummy." She's never seen it all the way though, so I felt it was high time. That is, unless my aunt wants her to come over so they can look through photo albums before her and my uncle leave on their vacation on Thursday.

Went to the bookstore yesterday. Got some manga. DN 6, FMA 8 and the final volume of RK. Twenty-eight. I've only read FMA and RK so far and so, I give my impressions...

FMA )

RK Finale )

I want to see if I can watch some more of my torrents that I have. Hopefully I can maybe burn some of them so that I can perhaps make more room to download more.

Trivia of the day: In English folklore, Queen Mab was a fairy queen who governed people's dreams.

*sigh* I checked both of my sources and DN 108 and SDK 307 still aren't out yet... *grumble* So I guess I have to wait until who knows when in order to see them. And of course, they're both the final chapters of either series... Does this move come at a bad time, or what?

I went to the vet's to pick up the cats' medical info we need to give the management to the apartments, so that's out of the way. I also went to get the change of address cards so our mail can be forwarded. Now I just need to go online and change my address for things like Amazon and Netflix.

Today I'm basically going to finally go through my computer files and start burning them onto disks. That way, if any glitches occur, I won't have to panic (which I may have mentioned on yesterday's post. I don't remember).


You would not believe the drama going on on my forum just about the color change. I myself could care less about changing the color. The color it's been for the past year or so has been perfectly fine. A little bland maybe, but nothing glaring or anything. But a few people kept bitching about it (one in particualar) so in order to shut them up, I asked people to contribute skin samples to be voted on. Well, we only got two entrants and so I set up a poll. Someone else on there said we should match the colors to the banner I had made. I for one, don't agree to this simply because I didn't make the banner to match anything. I just made it to be a banner telling who were are. Simple, eh? Well, then a big brouhaha went on about how the colors someone suggested were simply horrid and that we should stick with one of the two examples in the poll. I swear, we have a lot of hot heads on there. I myself am pretty much sick of the whole thing. I mean, I already voted for the colors I liked the best. Geez, I mean, you think there's wank on here!! I'm thisclose to changing the colors anyway and saying, "If you don't like it, too bad!" This is what I get for trying to be diplomatic...

Fandom-wise, I really lucked out. I went to B&N yesterday and got a bit of a haul I'm proud to say. RK 26, SDK 18, DN 5, FMA 7 and Beauty is the Beast 3.

In RK 26, we get to meet Sano's dad, and I must say "like father, like son." Now I know why Sano is the way he is (BTW, his little brother is absolutely adorable. "Apple Cheeks" indeed). There's only two more volumes after this, so the series will be concluded in July therabouts. I think the other series Watsuki-sensei had licensed will start in August (good timing, I say). I'm not 100% sure, though.

In SDK 18, Mahiro finally confronts the person responsible for the death of her sister. She doesn't succeed though and only winds up getting herself seriously injured. Kyo steps up though and fights in her place, basically because even though he didn't kill her, he still feels responsible since she died in front of him. And ol' 'Tora was really worried about Mahiro (squuueee). And now I know why Okuni has shorter hair. I had wondered about that. I think it looks good on her, though.

In DN 5, we see nonevil!Raito (or Light. Whatev). I agree with [livejournal.com profile] flamika. I like this version of Light much better than crazypsycho!Light.

Well, that's all for now. I'll be signing off now for awhile. I hope everyone takes care of themselves.

See you on the other side.

Trivia of the day: Designer Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel introduced her first perfume in 1921. She gave it the name "Chanel No. 5." According to Chanel, she jumped straight to number five because it was her lucky number. To add luck to the fragrance, she introduced it on the fifth day of May, the fifth month. Chanel No. 5 became the world's best selling perfume.

You know, I keep thinking of these witty things to put in my journal, but by the time I get around to posting anything, I've forgotten them. Maybe I should keep a little notebook around my neck so I can remember what it is.

The house is beginning to look like a war zone. The lady we're staying with is going to be moving to North Carolina soon, so she's been packing up her things and things are in a bit of a disarray. So far we haven't heard anything about the potential housing situations we've looked into. I'm doing my best to hang on, but it's getting to be very hard. *sighs* I just have to hope that something comes along soon. I know, I've bored everyone with all of this stuff a lot, and for that I apologize.

I haven't heard anything about the job I applied for, but then I haven't checked my other e-mail yet. I still plan on applying to the one other place so I can cover my bases. I just don't know anymore.

Dad did say something interesting to me the other day. He said that if I wanted to, I could move up to Michigan and he'd help me with my housing and employment stuff. And for the first time, I seriously considered it. I mean, I can't stay here forever. However, I can't go anywhere anyway. I have too many responsibilities here. Mom needs me especially since grandma's no longer here. *sigh*

Last night's 'Everwood' episode was really cute. It had Bright/Hannah squee in it and the big rumor surrounding Kyle online turned out to be true. Not that I thought it wouldn't, but sometimes you can't trust some of the stuff you hear online.

And I went to the bookstore yesterday and picked up a copy of RK 25 finally! I really like this volume. Why? Because Yahiko kicks ass, that's why. Now I want to pick up the latest issue of 'Shojo Beat,' because I hear the 'Kaze Hikaru' chapter in it is really cute!! And you know me and cuteness! I also bought two Dave Barry books and a couple of magazines.

Today I have vacuuming to do and dishes to put away.

Trivia of the day: There is evidence to suggest that ginger root is effective against motion sickness and nausea when taken in powdered form.
