The inevitable has happened….

A day that will go down in history….

A day we will all remember for the rest of time…

Lindsey got herself an Xbox. YES! You read correctly. An XBOX. I bought Halo, Ghost Recon, Knights of the Old Republic, a LAN party, and one of the new blue S controllers. Plus my beautiful Limited S… it’s all enough to keep me insanely entertained until… well, until Halo 2 comes out.

I have even BIGGER news, believe it or not. I am an official beta tester for Final Fantasy XI!!! It took forever to get everything downloaded and uploaded and configured, but I actually started playing it today. I saw a couple of other people but I didn’t talk to them and they didn’t talk to me. I killed a couple of hornets and worm thingies and got to level 2. Yay level 2! I don’t know though. It was fun, but it wasn’t really fun. Not like Ghost Recon fun. I heart that game. But still, it’s alright. And as long as it’s free, I’m gonna play it. At least I look cool. I’m a female Elvaan. Everybody say “Yay for elves!” Come on… say it. I’ll give you a minute.

I know you didn’t say it out loud. Punk.

Anyway, so that’s why I haven’t really updated in a while. That and… my life is getting really… stressful lately. sigh At least though… I got my postal test study guide in the mail yesterday. FINALLY. That’s a good thing. Well, except the tests look a lot harder than I expected. But still, not totally discouraged. With lots of practice, I can do it.

Oh, and Peter, thank you so much for your comments. I’m sorry I haven’t been on messenger!! Mainly I just forget to turn it on. But I WILL come up there. Eventually. Promise.

Today Shayna, Sam, and I were helping Shayna’s parents work on the anime/manga/nifty object store. It’s going to be called It’s Your Move. I thought that was really cute. Anyway. It’s so awesome!!! They have dragons and swords and bamboo and anime stickers and DVD’s and soundtracks and wall scrolls and pins and of course, manga. They also have these cool little remote control cars and board games and dominoes and ALL kinds of cards and neat stuff like glowy mouth things (you have to see to understand). It’s all looking very nice and we helped take stuff out of boxes and price it. For payment I got a Chobits laminated poster!! Very nice!! If you can’t tell, I’m very excited about it. I already picked out like eight things I’m going to buy. Oh yeah, and the main attraction of the store… almost forgot… is cards, like Yu-gi-oh and Magic and they’re going to have tournaments and trading and stuff. So it’s gonna be awesome!! A Muskogee first! LOL… that reminds me… Wade came up with the perfect slogan for Okie-ville. They should change those stupid “A Great Place to Live” bumper stickers for it. “Muskogee! Where the men are men and the sheep are scared!”

And on that note, I’m done.

Edit: Oh yes. I forgot a few things. I’m going to be making a new addition to the site. It’s very very exciting and I want you all to be on the edge of your computer chairs in anticipation. I would give a set time that I would put it up, so everybody would be at my site at once and crash it (yeah… all 5 of you), but I probably wouldn’t have it done by then. Oh, what the hay, I’ll just give a time and you’ll be there, and it will be done. So…. how bout…. what’s today? Wednesday? Yes. So… Friday night at… 10:42PM. There we go.

Oh and also, I guess the little playlist thing isn’t bimonthly… since I haven’t changed it. That whole idea is kind of gay anyway. I’m going to do something different. Just so you know.


The Completely Pointless Personality Quiz

Hmm… yes, another one. I just… pleh. I feel really really sort of sad, like… depressed. But at the same time I feel like I’ve taken all the events that are bad right now, and kind of pushed them out of my reach. Not out of sight, just… far enough away that I can be happy in the simple pleasures of life, like comfy pajamas and the solace of my friends, particularly Shayna. I know I’ll have to pull them back eventually, but right now, while there’s nothing I can do, I’m just gonna be happy.

My mom knitted a little cuff-like thing, just for fun, and it looks pretty cool actually. I’ll start a new trend: hand-knitted cuffs. For the punk traditionals.

She said her bones were aching, like a storm was coming. God, I wish it would storm. There’s something about it, when you can feel the tension in the air, the pressure building in time with your adrenaline… it’s like a rush. And then the storm breaks. There’s just something so beautifully tragic about it, like the bittersweet reason we savor breath because it gives us life, despite how hard that life is. If there was a storm, I could just… forget about the guilt and the pain and the hurt and just let go and cry. I feel like I’ve been holding back the floodgate of tears, but every time I’ve tried to cry lately, nothing comes out. It’s like I can’t bear to relive it. sigh I just need a storm.
