It's been a while...

I've fallen back into my Harry Potter obsession. This happens every now and then.

I looked at my profile here and saw that the countdown until I get my tattoo is just over two months. Wow, I remember when that was at 2 years.I should start planning stuff for my 18th birthday.

Holy shit I'm old.

We had today off of school. We earned it by raising enough money at the walk-a-thon. Then last week someone wrote "People Will Die on the 14th" on a wall at St. Xavier's, a college near here. All the schools in the surrounding area closed to be on the safe side. So... since we would have had today off because of that, shouldn't we get another day off for the Walk-A-Thon?

My friends and I were discussing this over homemade deep-dish pizza (yum!) last night. Mrs. Bresnahan said something about a friend of hers who teachers at St. Xavier. We didn't get her point at first, and Annie asked if she meant that teachers were going to go in to school even when there was a threat. I then said "It's the perfect plan." One of those things that should never be said, but I do say just to get a reaction. No wonder people are scared of me.

Today Amy, Julia, and I used our day off to go to the Field Museum. It was fun. We figured out how to drive there all by ourselves (only one wrong turn, which was MapQuest's fault). The expressway is kinda hard to figure out now that it's been redone. But I think we got the hang of it.

We went through a bunch of exhibits. My favorite was one on Mythic Creatures. I learned a lot about mermaids and kappas and griffins and unicorns and all those cool things. The only bad part was the signs kept saying these creatures aren't real. Pfft... shows what they know.

We ate pizza at a pizza place. We bought a pitcher of pop and I poured it into my water accidentally. Crazy moment.

I took the train back by myself so I could get to work. I worked. Then I went down the street to donate blood. I was supposed to donate at our school's blooddrive friday, but I had a slight temperature. This time I was sent away because my iron was too low. How could it be low now but not Friday? I've eaten meat and taken vitamins!

Went to target, bought birthday presents for people, and came home. Now I'm procrastinating. I should be studying for my AP Euro test.

Everything is coming up so fast. I have to get money, shoes, my nails done, and my hair done by prom a week from Saturday. But all I want to do is play some quidditch and get my team back on top.

My grandpa is awesome. I miss grandma... dreamt about her the other day. In my dream she wasn't really dead. Maybe she isn't, and is just really good at not breathing or moving for five days before being buried. Or maybe it's just my thoughts on the afterlife showing up when I sleep.

I don't want my grandpa to die. But he wants to die.

My grandma won't take prom pictures with me.

I hate being depressing. Nitwit! Oddment! Blubber! Tweak!
