I wish there were more days like today
I didn't sleep last night again, but that's ok, I'm going to call it an early night and probably nap after working midshift.
A good friend of mine, Treena, was online this morning and we talked. We used to talk a lot. Almost every day we'd head to the bar just to chat about life and problems and random shit. Or I'd visit her at work and we'd talk and talk and maybe then head to the bar and talk more. Even when I was over gaming with Blake after they moved in together she and I would try and find time to talk. I've missed it and I've missed her company. This morning talking to her was exactly what I needed to get my day going right. After talking with her I felt great and good things kept happening.
Then I watched AVP and ate some breakfast. I could write a big long critique on it but I'll just say "they made a lot of mistakes" and "they could have done better" but I'm a huge geek and almost all the related novels and have read a bunch of the comics. However it was a good action movie and I did enjoy watching it.
I lazed around until just after 2pm when my mom came by to pick me and my laundry up. I'm so lucky I can still do it for free.
I decided I was going to make dinner and got it all planned out. I played with the dog for a while then grabbed my Percy kitty and my copy of Gladiator and sat down to watch it while waiting for my sister to come home. I've REALLY missed being able to cuddle my Percy and just hear him purr. He misses me too I think cause he didn't leave once during the movie.
I tried watching "I am Sam" first but by the 30 minute mark I was almost crying and had to turn it off. I love that movie but I was only able to actually watch it in the theatre, and I bawled through a good chunk of it.
Then my sister got home, she's been going to a lot of interviews and they've all gone well. She probably got the job, which is awesome, and she was in a great mood. I started dinner, salmon steaks glazed with my own secret recipe that I made up on the spot, stirfried veggies and coconut basmati rice. It turned out really really well, now I want to cook more fancy dinners for people!
Then sister and I went shopping for her costume for halloween. She didn't know what she wanted to do so we just wandered around Value Village. She picked out some awesome hawaian gear but decided against it. She settled on a "playa from da hood" and set out to find a Wife-Beater, a doo-rag, some "bling" and a pair of big baggie sports shorts. We found nothing at VV so we hit West Ed. We shopped in a few places and finally found everything we needed. I picked up some thin black-light bracelet things. those "snap bracelettes" or whatever they call them. the thin soft ones. And some purple sparkly nail polish.
Then I came home, chatted with Jen and a few friends and the nights going to continue like that until I pass out.
As for my costume, I've decided Black goth pants, tight black tee, UV tubing across the chest and around the neck, UV bracelets, glittery purple nailpolish, black hair with blue/UV highlights and "circuitry" draw onto my face. This is gonna be a blast.
