When does a child get too old to be an orphan? Is there an age limit? If you lose both your parents at the age of 18, are you an orphan, or an adult whose parents are dead? If you were an orphan and then you grow up, are you still an orphan or have you grown out of it?
These are the things that I think about after midnight, apparently.
I saw the Simpson's Movie! I liked it. Mostly because I didn't have freakishly high expectations of it. Some reviewers were like, "It's basically a long Simpson's episode." Well, yeah. What else would it be?
My step-mom and my step-brothers are out of town, so it's just me and my dad this week. He still goes to work, so I'll be by myself for most of the time. Not a problem, though. I plan to sit in the dark and watch movies, which is what I usually do anyway. It's fun, though. It's like when my parents first got divorced and it was just me and my dad, and he had to figure out how to take care of me, mostly by trial and error. I remember watching way more TV than I should have. Yesterday we went shopping and bought a bunch of food we usually don't get to have, like hotdogs and poptarts and ice cream, and tonight we just ate snacks because we forgot to make dinner. Good times.
