when i touched a baby kangaroo

So last night we went to see About Schmidt, which I kinda liked but none of my friends did. But that's not the point of this post. The point is, we went to one of my least favourite theaters: the new Cordova one, which is always *crawling* with 50,000 screaming teenagers. And last night, there were 70,000 screaming teenagers, cause as it turns it out it was the opening night of Kangaroo ...

when i needed business cards

Ok, question: Which of my pics do you think I should put on my business card? This question is the reason I didn't have a business card for MTAC 2 1/2. Or for Animazement 02. Or for Otakon. Or for Dragoncon. Or for MTAC Pi. I just can't friggin make up my mind.

when i played sims 2 on ps2

Got a little more used to The Sims for PS2 last night. I like the "Get a Life" game a lot so far; it's neat to have actual goals in the game. My character in that is named DO (all of my characters have been named something like that so far, it's annoying not being able to type in names). He has shaggy blonde hair, big black eyeglasses, a sweater ...

when i got school canceled

What I learned today: Calling the school to tell them you're skipping due to the *possibility* the weather might get bad might have some effect. I wasn't going to call, I was just going to skip my one class today (4:30-6), but Kristie decided to call and tell them I wasn't coming cause I had to drive so far in the country to get there. A few minutes later, the ...

when there was a spy in spencer’s

Today I went to the mall before work to buy The Sims for PS2, but turns out that's coming out TOMORROW. Darn. So to console myself, I bought some other stuff. The calendar kiosk that pops up in november every year and disappears by february had all their calendars on sale for $3, so since I only got 2 calendars for christmas (I usually get like 4), I bought myself two new calendars. ...

when someone always loses a hat

I noticed something yesterday. Anytime someone is hit by a car (sometimes when there's just a regular car accident, but usually when someone is hit), the local news always shows a shot of a hat, laying forgotten in the road. I realised this yesterday, and I've begun to suspect that the camera crew just throws a hat out there and films it - I mean, could all these people hit ...

when i actually went to work

So my class today, which was supposed to go from 9 AM to 3 PM, ended at 9:30. score! I'm back at work. If I were still at my old job, I would have just told them I was in class all day and couldn't come in. But I like my new job. So here I am. I'm going to work on valentines tonight, instead of the layout... although I did get some ...

when we all bought socks

I need new socks. I haven't had any new socks since that day last summer when me, Rachel, David and Ash went to Wal-mart, and we each bought a new pack of socks. Still not sure why we did that.

when cath went to malta

I got LOTR valentines at the grocery store. I wonder what Tolkien what think of kids giving each other little cards that say, "One friendship to rule them all." I'm not even going to be in town that day, I'll be at Katsucon. I'll have to give Cath hers this month, since she'll be in MALTA then. I still can't believe she's going to Malta. The only things I associate ...
