Kristen and I doggysat Lilah's puppy last night because she had to go to her aunt's house for Rosh Hashanah. Midnight (Lilah's dog) was so cute! But we had to walk her in the pouring rain and pick up her poop which was v. yicky and v. funny at the same time. Kristen and I ate, talked, cuddled with Midnight and watched cartoons and funny movies all night. We watched some of Monkeybones, which I now realize that I am terrified by it. I *hate* movies where the main character is body snatched or trapped in some way... it gives me the wigs and makes me very panicky (like i felt a couple weeks ago and on the plane from California back home). I can no longer watch: any of the Fivel movies (that immigrant mouse), the Rats of Nimh movie (ot the sequeal), Monkeybones, Felix the Cat movie, and most of all::: the Are You Afraid of the Dark? episode where this kid test a virtual reality game for a teacher and his brother was mad at him and put a virus in the game so that the guy was trapped in this game where nothing was real and this guy wanted to kill him and OMG, it was terrifying. I just... I have a major problem with these movies- they trigger something in my head that is just... horrible. I hate that feeling. And I get all paranoid and helpless and I just feel... well, it's horrible and I hope to God that no one ever feels that way.
Anyway, I'm going to doggysit Midnight again tonight, and I'll be able to not worry about watching anything I don't like. I can watch something that I like and Kristen hates and not worry about it because Kristen's working tonight and can't join me (I liked her company though)
And I made it to the next level of Foreign Exchange Student! It's really like a video game. I did an interviews and passed to the next level. Now, if the area's Rotary people want to sponser me, then I'll be able to go to a foreign country for a year!
