Hello people!
This is taking far longer than it should. I just can't concentrate.
I woke up to my alarm again at 9:00 today. I went downstairs and the whole family and I were good for a while. Mom left for work an hour after I got up. Nick tried to make mac 'n' cheese and I tried to help him; I wanted to hold the strainer for him while Nick strained the pasta (we have a strainer that has a long, thin handle but no bottom, so we have to hold it while holding whatever pot has the pasta in it).
It's really hard to do by yourself, so I held the strainer for Nick. Well, he accidentally poured a little boiling water on my index finger, but it didn't really hurt. Oh, but dad freaked out. He yelled at Nick a LOT while I rinsed my finger in cold water. My finger was totally fine, it didn't turn any shade of red, nor did it hurt at any time, so I think dad overreacted. He made Nick cry and Nick went upstairs.
Dad left the room for a while and I went upstairs to get away from that shit. I decided to play GTA: Vice City for a while. It felt good, and I LOVED listening to the music (80's FTW), as always. <3 Nick came in a little later and helped me out with a couple missions and we played with the kitten a little. It was fun. :] Um, then mom came and picked me up and we went out to see Julie&Julia and shop at Target.
The movie was so cute. I loved it. It made me really hungry, though, lol! Title of this post is from Dan Aykroyd's Julia Child that he did on SNL, I believe. A bit was included in the movie and it was frikkin hysterical, and I think I quoted him correctly...(or at least pretty close). Moving on, we got pretzel sticks for a snack next cuz dinner wasn't gonna be for another hour. I got some gumballs for later and then to Target we went.
I got a couple pairs of jeans and some new shirts that I totally love. Unfortunately, they were kinda expensive, which made me feel kinda guilty. I wish Target wasn't so damn expensive. >:( AHEM, anywho, after that, we went out to eat at Friendly's. The food was great, the ice cream was delicious and the waitress was super nice. Her son is starting college next Saturday, just like me! :D
Oh, speaking of college, I got my first book in the mail today! I also got a letter telling me I was approved for my Stafford Loan! So that made me happy! <3 Um, after dinner, mom and I went home with the convertible top down, blasting music. SO much fun. Once we got home, dad, mom and I went up to their bedroom and we all watched an episode of Dexter together. Love that show beyond words.
I'm gonna watch tonight's Monk and Psych tomorrow evening. Mom's taking me with her to work all day. It'll be nice to be out of the house for a day. I like getting away every now and then, ya know? :] Anywho, sorry again about Meme Day. :'(
Love y'all - Mira/Doc/Kat *meow*
