I made a bunch of new LJ icons and I keep forgetting to upload them. >.< Now I'm on my laptop, so I can't upload them. Goal for tomorrow!
Speaking of goals for the day, one of my goals for today was to do a bunch of work towards my next youtube video. It was all going well and I was doing a serious test-run for the videos and recording and after about a half hour of playing and what I THOUGHT was recording...I realized I hadn't turned my harp on. (My electric harp actually has an on/off switch.) I was so mad at myself that it just all went downhill from there. Though now I have big plans to hopefully do the final/official recordings tomorrow. Still have a few things to figure out though, so...hopefully I'll wake up totally inspired!
Ok, so this is incredibly sad in a totally pathetic sort of way...but tonight, I volunteered to be the driver for a carpool to the movie theaters, so I actually had every seat (all 7) in my car filled. In all the years I've driven SUVs, I've never actually gotten to drive a carload of friends somewhere...and what's so pathetic is how happy it made me to do so. ^.^ Sounds like something really stupid, but I've always wanted to have a reason to be like "As a matter of fact, I could drive everyone and we'd only have to take one vehicle!"...which is how it worked out tonight. Makes me feel important, I suppose? Also works to my advantage cause I have serious anxiety issues about riding with other people driving.
On Saturday nights, I usually go watch anime with a group of friends. In lieu of anime tonight (and since several people are otherwise engaged playing Diablo), a group of 7 of us went and saw "The Avengers". Was pretty awesome, that's for sure. But I gotta say...while Tony Stark will always be my first love, Hawkeye is so totally my type. ^.^ And Captain America also makes me all giddy, hehe.
After the movie, we went to Steak n' Shake (and HOLY COW I've lived in this town 10 years and NEVER KNEW there was a SnS there!) and I got their new Nutter Butter milkshake. It was AMAAAAAAAAAAAAAZING!!! I actually kept sucking up huge chunks of just the peanut butter filling from the cookies. Guh, so good. Totally worth the probably 1500 calories (a normal shake from there is around 1000).
But hey, I've now lost almost 30 pounds (officially 30 if I assume I had a few days as high as I think I did back before I started losing weight) and I was at my lowest yet this morning...so I deserve it. ^.^
