8.20.2003
 
*laughs* Here I was, all worried that since AIM kicked me off AGAIN, I'd gotten people (ok basically Laur) worried cos I wasn't online...
...*Laur* wasn't on at all either, for the same reason as me - aim is refusing to connect.
Well, actually, mine's connected *now*...but had kicked me off *yet* again while I was downstairs watching U2's Red Rocks video. <3
Which I was doing cos when you've fallen down stairs only to be stuck watching your Dad and brother fight for half an hour...you just need some U2. (Well, that, and, had been talking to Megs as usual, and since it was the one-year anniversary of her Afghan Adam's arrival (*how* she manages to remember *all* these dates I've no idea - *I* certainly never can..then again, Megs = mathgeek *g*), there was afair bit of Adamness about tonight and gheeee she HAD to mention the Adam-butt in Red Rocks. That kinda settled it. ^__^
Which reminds me..a few new small details I noticed while watching tonight. Bono shoots Edge this LOOK, for like half a second, in..ehm..I think it's "New Year's Day". And it's seriously only a split second but it's this LOOK and I was like o___o ghee. *g* When "Seconds" kicks back in after the break, and the camera goes back to Edge..hard as it is, look *behind* Edge and watch Adam, he's like, super-all-moving-about and it's cuute. *g* "Threw a Brick"...guuuuh Lar. Which isn't a new thing I noticed, but like, that middle-bit he's playing almost faster'n my eyes can follow...gheee my baby. <3 Adam is actually wearing jeans. Whoa. And in the quiet-bit of "I Will Follow", where it slows up and the camera goes back to Adam, whose all crouched-over and stuff (and where they ganked the pic of him on the cd/lp sleeve from)..watch that in slow-motion if you can. Or like, pause at every frame (which's what I get to do now that WE HAVE A PAUSE-BUTTON THAT WORKS WOOOOOO!!!!! ^___^). Due to the looseness of Adam's magically-dropping-open-more-at-every-song shirt, when he leans over like that you can see all the way to his waist. And there are chest-shadows and things and it's nice. Also......watch what the bass *guitar!* neck is doing and where it is.... *guh dies* And I forget what else but they're all absolutely wonderful. *smiles* <3
merani-chan made fun of my baaaby and I was annoyed. :p His mouth is open like that when he's all into it and the song is jsut *there* and he's playing with everything he has, and his face just-----
There's no explaining it. Lar is wonderful.
(And merani-chan was just like, "uuuuuuhm, NO, that's just wrong" when she saw Adam's butt-bopping dance-thing. which shows that she just doesn't get it yet..... *giggles*)

Anyway, yeah. Fair enough day... went to bed early (around 1?) last night cos I had a headache, woke up about 10.30 and felt mostly-fine ('cept for my stomach being kind of off, but this is becoming a normal thing lately 9_9 ), but wasn't quite sure it wasn't too early for 'Nandas to be awake yet. Plopped down at the computer, checked messages, dozed off in front of the computer for like another hour. Woke up, left a message or two for Himeros who was out working on his roof again (Pearce Memorial Chuch's getting people together to help them fix their roof, cos it's like, madcrazyinsanely bad. if I thought I'd be able to help and matantis wouldn't get pissy about it, I'd *love* to go help, really... meanwhile 'tantis isn't helping at all, which bothers me rather a lot.....). Went thru the pile of unlabeled cds that's been sitting about forever, labeled those that'd already been burnt, burned anime onto the blank ones...tried cleaning out my registry with this program I got hold of awhile ago, found out it'd only clear up 15 of the errors each time it scanned my registry...I have over 600 errors in there right now... ^^;;;;. Hung out with merani-chan, watched her playing a demo of Roller Coaster Tycoon (which I'm going to try NOT to get..I know how *insanely* addicted I got to the original SimCity back in the day...this might very well be worse ^^;; ), then Mom picked us up to go shopping. Only Grandma ended up taking us cos Mom was gonna wait around cos she figured 'tantis'd likely call her for rides places or whatever and yeah. So... shopping we went. We got stuff. Merani and I actually FOUND PANTS it was like whoa. *laughs* (Even more amazing: she got a pair of jeans, I got a pair of non-jeans. o____o *giggles*) So, I have cool new clothes, including a shirt with 23 on it, tho it doesn't bear *any* other resemblance to one of Edge's at all, sadly. *g* And I have this great black t-shirt with happy script-y letters that say "rebel" and a chaaaain that runs diagonally across. And awesome kinda satiny-fabric black pants with zippers and pockets. So I put all this on when I was home later, and looked in the mirror, with my bracelets and necklaces and all this, and I'm like DUDE, I am PUNK/GOTH WOOOO! *laughs* So Dad hasn't seen this outfit yet, not sure that he will.
And anyway, as Megs intelligently pointed out, I need some black eyeliner to complete the outfit first
^_____^
And random other cool clothes, and I actually found SHOES which is like megasupermiraclehi.
So we spent mad tons of Grandma's money but yeahhhh...
Came home, got on aim, was snogged senseless and etc. by ZooLar, tried on new clothes, Megs was snogged senseless and etc. by her gorgeous Afghan Adam (Adams and maroon silk robes are just..guuuuuh ^___^)...
And Dad called all of us downstairs.
Stood up, couldn't feel my one foot at ALL. Hate that. Still in the awesome new black pants (tho not the shirt), attempted to go downstairs.
Managed it most of the way, really!
And *just* as I finished saying, "Yeah, I can't feel my foot at all, so if I fall---"
I fell.
It sucked.
It was only down like three steps, but I have a rather impressive scratch all the way up my arm. And my one nail broke down below the white-part, so that kinda hurts. Backside, which I landed squarely on, is quite fine, due to the generous padding back there. :p
So, nursed my wounds and sat on the floor at the bottom of the stairs.
And Dad proceeded to launch in matantis about basically everything all over again.
...For those who hadn't heard... 'tantis the genius boy is not supposed to drive Dad's blue car except to work. And especially not very far away right now cos the tires are sketchy and kinda not all that saef apparently. Over the weekend, 'tantis drove it to take his friends and him out riding. All the way out to..I forget. Somewhere definitely far away. And, of course, 'tantis being the master of all car-trouble, they got a flat. Dad had to drive clear out there to get them. He was not pleased. This of course led to the usual fighting yelling etc, 'tantis talking about moving in with mom (again), and Twins being banned from our house (*secret little cheer of happiness*).
So, yeah. That got re-hashed, as well as everything else. And 'Tantis answered things and talked back which, as we long-ago learned, only extends things.
Nothing was said by or to merani-chan or I. We just got stuck there witnessing all this. (And Dad has his reasons why - we *are* witnesses to the whole thing, we're his evidence when Matt says he did or didn't say something...'course, also vice-cersa but y'know.)
What drives *me* nuts, is that 'tantis and Dad both accuse each other of the same thing - twisting what the other persion says. Thing of it is? They *both* definitely do it. A lot. But of course neither will admit that they do, they just point out that the other does.
Needless to say, it's not even like there's the least bit of interest in listening to their arguments, cos quite often they decend into not even really making any sense, combating points with things that aren't entirely true or relevent. On top of that, thanks to Dad being involved, it's usually the same things being rehashed. (Seriously. 'member lecture 2a? it's STILL in rotation, no joke. 9_9 )
What'd be amusing if it wasn't so tiresome: Dad saying "but that's in the past, we're going to move on from there"...and then bringing up some dispute from like a month ago.

So, it was like eh blah, merani-chan and I were bored out of our minds, I played with the pockets (*hehehe*) on my new pants and sorted out my laundry from the piles on the stairs. (Oddly enough, it was *not* the laundry that made me fall..was mostly, I think, my pant leg getting under my foot. as well as probably the fact that I still couldn't *feel* my other foot at that point. 9_9 )

Finally, that ended, bounced back upstairs and got back on aim and talked to Megs who cheered me up as always. ^___^ And sent me to NEW pics of BARE LARRY CHEST guuuuuuuuh *dies*. ^____^ It was good. *hehehe*

And then, as mentioned, watched Red Rocks and it was like yay. ^_^

So now that my aim's working and so is Laur's.. I'm gonna talk to her awhile. Then I think write. And sleep. I should SO be packing cos I LEAVE SATURDAY WHAAAAAT!??!?! but ehmmm..

I'm the master of procrastination. can't do anything to tarnish the title, now can I? *g*
