feeling: tired and happy
listening to: nothing, as I will be going to bed very soon
This has been a good weekend. Saturday I awoke to my parents pulling into the driveway... went downstairs and saw them carrying my nephew in, as they had just picked him up and brought him over for the day. He went with us to my cousin's graduation party, and of course he was everyone's favorite guest ^u^ One of my younger cousins, something like 3 years old, insisted on holding him (with grandma's help)... she is such a doll... the first thing she said to him was "What's up dude" XD Then we took him to the graduation ceremony of the high school I went to till 2 years ago, the gateway to Hell that it is... anyway, and he was a perfect angel through the whole broiling dragging ceremony. Stayed awake, didn't cry, socialized with some guy sitting behind us, met people as I carried him around looking for old friends to congratulate on making it through the evil that is Southeastern High (one of them thought he was my kid XD), and again he was pretty much the main attraction. Then as we were driving him home - a good hour on the road - he fell asleep playing with his pacifier. He'd pull it out, bang it on his car seat 4 or 5 times, put it back in for a while, pull it back out, bang it on the car seat, put it back in, repeat, repeat, repeat. He kept doing it long after his eyes drifted shut. ^____^ He is too cute to be real~ and my arms are still sore from lugging him around cause he's so fat *rubs biceps*
Then today I got to play Threads of Fate some more (finally), and figured out the place where I was stuck last week. Got through the second major area of the game. It was fun once I actually turned my brain on. :Þ Also watched the tape of the Whose Line marathon that was on last night while we were at graduation, then watched the last two episodes of Utena again. No matter how many times I see that finale, it still makes me all giddy and weird. *luvey sigh* And then I actually looked over some readings and info for my Jap 231 midterm which is Tuesday... not that this contributed to my happiness factor for the day, but it was getting something done. Well... getting something started, more accurately. Aaaand finally, just now, I won an eBay auction for a full anime series I've had my eye on for almost a year. ^___^v It's Serial Experiments Lain on DVD, full series, fatory sealed and straight from the source, for less than $30 including shipping and insurance. Last time I was at MediaPlay just one disc from that series, I think 3 episodes, cost at least $30. So I'd say I did pretty well for myself. Yaaaaayy I got Laaaaaiiin *headbangs*
There has only been one low point of this weekend so far. Last night I slept through half of Toonami's Adult Swim, including Tenchi, which I'm pretty sure was supposed to be an ep I've been waiting close to a year to see. >_< I suck. We got home well after 11 p.m., so I missed all but the end of YuYu Hakusho... got to see Cowboy Bebop, which was cool... the next 2 shows in the block didn't interest me so I stuck in the Whose Line marathon tape... and fell asleep. Woke up at 2 a.m., just as Tenchi was going off, and since the tape was still running I couldn't even hear what episode it was. (cause usually if I fall asleep I at least leave it on that channel, and when Tenchi comes on I hear Mihoshi or Ryo-ohki's sreeching voices and wake up...yeah). grrr. I really suck.
And even though I have tomorrow off too, I consider this long weekend pretty much over. The fun stuff is done. Tomorrow I go back, study, do homework, change my fish's water, study some more, and get back into the school thing, which sucks cause this long weekend has only served to heighten my awareness that summer is just around the corner. Which makes me extreeeeemely impatient and whiny. So if you talk to me over the next 3 weeks and I start snapping at you or ranting on and on about anything and everything, you'll know why. Lord, you should've seen me last year around this time. You think I'm depressed and miserable now? :P (I'm not, by the way...certain people just think I am :P) I did have proof of that agony, but then my computer decided to eat 2 of my floppy disks, so I don't anymore, but... rest assured I was not a happy camper. The ranting, the whining, the slamming of heads and fists on the desk... *sigh* I love this time of year, can't you tell?
Even though I did see a couple things I'd never noticed before while rewatching the last episodes of Utena tonight, I won't do a spoiler-blog now. I'm too tired, and I don't wanna steal (or dim) the glory from my Black Rose spoiler blog down there just yet. :3 I'm off to bed.
