3019: If I Only Had a Match
First off, on the way home, I was behind this other car by about two car lengths when *FOOMP!* the car's hood popped up and nearly fell off =O =O =O No one was hurt [especially not me], but... bizarre! O_O
--I'm also now paranoid of my car experiencing such a spontaneous breakdown, but I'm prolly not going to ACCIDENTALLY pop the engine latch =p
I don't feel like getting into a preachy ["observational"] post at this hour, as I spent the last however-long-the-Kennedy-Assassination-Special-on-History-Channel-is trying to chug through Aurora Feint II to "finish" it so I won't have to play it anymore =p I've more or less done this with every app I've gotten thus far--the only persistent [game] app is Word Warp, because it's potentially endless, as long as they keep updating it [itself a simple task].
Kryptograms, either I have to pay for more puzzles [I can't remember if I got "Lite" or not] or they were lazy enough only to make ~100, 'cause I finished all of those to an enormous anticlimax. My last unrepeated solve?Are you aware that my mother has a medical condition that makes her behave that way?
o_O? "Adebuh?" doesn't begin to cover it when EVERY OTHER PUZZLE is at least mild wit/wisdom and/or some corny joke:Growing old is nothing more than mind over matter; if you don't mind, it doesn't matter.
[or]
Wouldn't it make more since for milk to have a 'DRINK BY' date instead of a 'SELL BY' date?
...so you can kind of see how out of place the first one is 9_9
I did get into a cleaning fit, however mild, and dug through all the loose papers and things I have lying around for what reason. Some are notes from high school[!!!]--by which I mean story notes, not for class--and there's no reason as such that they need to be lying around loose, so I started transcribing them into one of a set of notebooks intended for longer-term [if not permanent] use. I also dug out the Quote-Acrostic book I'd gotten some years ago[!!] and started solving them again, also obtaining some--er--interesting dialogues:Prior to the nineteenth century, only widows, orphans, and servants ate lobster. And in some parts of New England, serving lobster to prison inmates more than once a week was forbidden by law, as doing so was considered cruel and unusual punishment.

Giant underwater bugs must've gotten tastier in recent years, eh? I imagine such "poor" conditions were expensive to facilitate, tho \=o
I also finally opened this one Nancy Drew Double Dare pack I'd gotten a while back. I didn't notice it was a repack--the box was only slightly damaged from where a previous sticker might have been--but the fact that one of the manuals is WRITTEN ON, in HANDWRITING with A BALLPOINT PEN gives evidence suggesting that maybe there's a slight possibility it's a used copy =p
