snapdragon76: this is made of win and awesome (Hakuryuu -- vacation)
Well, it's official. I am a sheep. I joined Facebook. Since so many people I know are on it, I figured, "Why not!" I already have a MySpace (which I swore never to do...), so why not something else to suck away my time! So any of you who want to friend me (and know my name), you can. I have six people on there already, more are welcome!

I have to try to get off work a little early tomorrow so I can take my MacBook and see why it wont start up. I tried doing what the instructions say, but they might as well be written in Greek or something for what it's worth. Still, I tried to no avail. So I'm gonna take it in to the local Mac specialist and see what they can do. Hopefully 1. they can salvage my laptop (I've formed quite an attachment to it, you know) and 2. it doesn't cost me an arm and a leg. Wish me luck!*lights incense and says chants over Hakuryuu*

Work was a bit hectic today. I had to catch up with the stuff I missed for the past two days. In actuality it didn't take as long as I thought it would. I think I'm getting faster. Still, after having two days off, it took me a bit to get used to the ol' routine. Not that I was playing hooky or anything those last two days or anything, although I did watch me some of my Count Duckula DVD's. LOL

I tried to play some more Mario Galaxy, even to the point of starting all over again. Yet, I STILL get stuck at the friggin' Black Hole on Planet D. Once I got soooooo close. I was able to get past the Piranha Plant and onto the switches, but when I went to hop up onto the wall to turn the wall switches off... I overshot it and fell into the Black Hole again. *sobs*

I played more of my Bleach game and moved onto the Arcade Mode. First I played as Renji (and kicked ass) then I played as Ichigo. I still won, but it took me a few times to win against Hitsugaya. As soon as I saw I was up against him, I was all, "Man, I am so gonna get my ass kicked." Of course, it doesn't help matters any that he has those ice wall shield thingies he uses. Still, eventually I was able to defeat him. Hell, I had a hard enough time defeating Uryuu!

So, the Super Bowl was last night. The Giants won. I was happy. Truthfully I wasn't rooting for either team, but I kinda sided with the underdog, so I was cool with it. The commercials were great though! A few of them made me laugh out loud. We were at friends of ours' house, so that made it all the better. It was fun.

Well, I made it back form my colonoscopy in one piece... not that I wouldn't of course. Everything looks fine. I had a little bit of inflammation, but it wasn't too bad. My doctor said on a scale of one to ten, it was about a one. The hardest part was the prep I had to do last night. Ugh. Although it wasn't nearly as bad as the stuff I had to drink before, it's not something I want on the menu even with the flavoring added.

I do have to get a colonoscopy every year now as opposed to every couple of years. Next time, I'm asking for the pills instead of the TriLyte liquid.

Mom went to pick up my car from the mechanic. I just hope it doesn't cost me an arm and a leg. It needed quite a bit of work...

We're also waiting for the delivery of our new dryer. Mom accidentally gave them the wrong cell phone number, so she had to call them in order to fix it. We have to move the large curio cabinet at the end of the hall before they can get the old dryer out and the new one in. I only hope they come after mom gets back with my car.

I also got my volume 12 of TriMax from Amazon. It's thicker than the previous volumes. We're also getting close to the end. Although I've read summaries online before, it's a lot easier to see what's going on for oneself, especially in a series as visually intense as TriMax.

I might try to play more of Mario Galaxy, since I can play it sitting down. I dunno if I wanna continue from where I was or start over again. It depends on how far I can get past the Black Hole.

First of all: [livejournal.com profile] secondlina I GOT THE "PACKAGE" TODAY!!!!! OMG SO ADORABLE!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!! I have it hanging on my closet! For example.

I may even have it framed, like my friend [livejournal.com profile] kawaiiayu's drawing she did of me (which is sitting on my desk here at home). I'm even keeping the envelope because it has a Work on it!!^_____^ Oh, and it's a Q, BTW...

Work was work. 'Nuff said.

I played some Super Mario Galaxy this weekend. It rocks! It such fun, except when I had to quit because I got SUCKED INTO A BLACK HOLE!!!! I tried again yesterday, and SAME THING!!! T____T I came thisclose to reaching my goal, but I got knocked off and down I went... Grahhh.

I was able to watch at least one of the Tori DVD's. I like the videos one, although most of the time they seem a little... surreal. But music videos in general tend to be a bit surreal. Still, it's probably something I'd buy.

I reread the volumes of Victorian Romance Emma yesterday. Much squishiness for me at the end of volume 4. I need to see when the next one is coming out so I can order it. I did download and read the Emma Side Stories. There was one of William's and Hakim's ongoing tennis rivalry. Hurrr...

Mom and I went back to the gym for the first time in a few months on Saturday. We're going to be easing back into our regime. I need to make me a mix of upbeat workout songs sometime.

And, I was able to finally enjoy my bubble bath I had gotten months ago. Despite the fact our tub wasn't nearly deep enough for adequate soakage, the amount of bubbles more than made up for it.

Guess what I'll be doing this weekend?







That's right! It finally came! I'm really excited. I saw some video of people playing it on wii. com and it looks super fun!


Guess what else came! My new laptop bag!! It's just the right size! It even has a cell phone pocket and a cup holder inside!

The majority of my weekend was spent watching a mini-marathon of The Office. Such fun. I also was loaned a couple of Tori DVD's to watch as well. I need to find a time to watch them sometime too, although I might buy me a set of my own!

Of course, a good chunk of my weekend was spend basking in the glow of being right! I was posting on my fandom journal [livejournal.com profile] ryudoshi about the three volumes of Naruto I bought and read. I was looking up images on Wikipedia to explain about my theory about Naruto being the son of the Fourth Hokage. Well, imagine my surprise when it was indeed confirmed to be true. Of course, the fact that they looked so similar was a big honkin' clue right there. We also "meet" his mommy, whom he gets his surname and his personality from.

Seeing as this was apparently unveiled in September sometime thereabouts and considering I've been a bit removed from the fandom while the anime is airing the fillers here in the US, this isn't new. But to me, it is! so yay!

Evidence! )

And I naturally got new icons...

And a happy birthday to [livejournal.com profile] ichiban_victory!!
