Haven't felt up to posting since the last entry, but I'm back home now and feeling... okay. Much better. Honestly, I didn't know Big Daddy very well, but I was still really sad about it. But. Many amazing things have happened since, including:
- Megan's (joint) birthday party. I got to see a bunch of the ACMA kids I've been missing, and it was insanely fun to just run around and hang out with everyone again.
- Silent Hill Origins. It's for the PS2, which is actually quite nice, because now I have something to do late at night when Emma and Mom are too tired to entertain me. In a similar vein, I got the graphic novel containing Paint It Black, which I adore and have been obsessing over.
- Drum lessons have been going well, and I'm starting Agitated Screams of Maggots. Apparently, Will played speed metal for a while, and the only real trick is getting it really fast (FUCKING 208 BPM WITH SIXTEENTHS ON THE BASS PEDAL OH GOD).
- Happy Together and some other movie by the same director came over the weekend, and they both look really good. Also rented a zombie movie and Meet the Spartans, which could be okay.
- The local berries and plums are getting ripe, which is very exciting. Grapes are still on the way. Ross is all oiled up and ready to ride, which I've been doing sparingly.
- Found a new person to stalk online.
- K-con is coming up BUT I CAN'T THINK OF A FUCKING COSTUME. SHIT.
- General happy fun times.
Even the trip up to Buckley wasn't bad. Sad, at parts, but mostly okay. Nana was just so amazing, and my dad as well. Also, on the way up, Katie got us pulled over for speeding. The cop who pulled us over was literally called Master D. L. Shades. Master fucking Shades. And the man who worked at the crematorium was wonderfully creepy and just generally bizarre. I'll talk about it later. But really, the whole thing just gave me so much hope. Everyone's been really strong and supportive of eachother.
The downside is that I got my period pretty hard today, so I'm gonna crash now.
