My birthday wasn't too bad. Nothing spectacular, but nothing bad either. So now Luke and I are watching The Godfather and eating pizza.

However, I did get the BEST birthday present EVER. I have poor teeth-- a genetic thing, not related to neglect, and my sisters gift is getting them fixed. When I walk down the aisle in seven months (holy crap!) I'll be able to smile.

Tomorrow I shall post pictures of my new car... :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

But now I -really- need a shower and a nap, as I work tonight and have been up since way too early to be working a nightshift. Buuuut...tomorrow is really going to be busier. I have to pick up the car, go to the court house, then go to the license bureau, then clean out the jeep to give back to Patrick, and then go back to work for another 12 hour nightshift.

Busy, busy, busy.

ALSO!

ATTENTION SPRINGFIELD FRIENDS!

I will be in town on Thursday if anyone wants to hang out.

So. I think Steve is a girl kitten. ...Well, considering it's mommies name was Clyde, it fits. Shifty-eyes.

Faith of the Fallen is boring me to death...but I head that the next ones are better. I certainly hope so. Pussy!Richard is annoying.

I really need to go do laundry tonight and borrow KotOR II from Patrick tonight...but I wanna be lazy. =\

I had an interesting night last night. Went to dinner with Luke and...Justin.

Then Justin and I hung out for hours, just catching up on the last two years worth of random stuff. I discovered that ACROSS is messed up now...it might be time for a founding member to return and set things right, shifty-eyes, and it was good to just hang out again, despite the major fight we had that tore us apart for years.

In other news...

The settlement from the car accident? Where I thought we would just get reimbursed for things we paid out of pocket, such as my glasses and prescriptions?

Ooooh no.

Since my clavicle was broken and my left index finger is still almost unusable, I get what is essentially "pain and suffering" reimbursement. To the tune of enough money to get me a good used car, with enough left over to put a decent amount into savings...and to get a new monitor. When I was on the phone with the insurance guy, he was all "I'm sorry if this isn't enough, or what you were expecting" and I just had my mouth hanging open when he told me the amount. As I said, I was expecting maybe a couple hundred at the MOST as reimbursement for what we paid.

So yeah, all in all, yesterday was awesome. Luke got an electric guitar and is already doing pretty awesome. I strummed a few chords and lamented the fact that my finger is still wonky, not to mention they're too short to play a full sized guitar easily.

I've had a productive day so far. The bedroom is completely clean aside from vacuuming, and the living room is getting there. The hardest part is going to be all of the garbage bags out and to the dumpster. Other than that, it's really not bad...if we don't count my desk.

And the couch, which has a lot of clothes on it. ...Oops?

In other news, Katana is going to the vet on Tuesday. She managed to sneak out past Luke last week and hid in the bushes for a good 45 minutes while we were out there looking silly with cat toys, trying to coach her out. Silly kitteh. Hard to believe she's about three years old now. Even weirder is that Reno is five.

Now...to get the garbage out before Luke gets home in twenty minutes. He didn't sleep at ALL last night and will be so tired. :( Poor boy. Insomnia sucks.

Tonight I plan on hitting the track again...or going to dinner with an old friend.

I think I would like Twilight if it weren't for the main characters. Dunno though. Alice was cool, especially at the end when she went KERPOP on that guy. Yeah. Vague spoiler. I don't care.

I'm sick. Spent the entire weekend in bed. Or...well...more accurately on my parents couch. Thankfully I only have to work five hours tomorrow. I should be able to pull it off. Tuesday may be another story, but I'll dope myself up on nyquil tonight, dayquil tomorrow and be done with it.

( Update on the medication )

Now...to pay my cable bill and get my kitties more canned cat food so they stop meowing in my face. xD

Oh. Sai wins points for saying no last night. ...Or well, not saying yes. *eyes her icon* DID YOU EVER SAY NO, DAMRY!? DID YOU!?

Note to self. Next time when making a voice post, don't use the speakerphone.

I'm absolutely exhausted. Myself and four friends went swimming this evening, and I can tell that it's been a while since I've done such things. Hence the reason I think I'm going to grab a book and fall asleep reading.

Whoa. I just found actual RP in Second Life. That's....wow.

So, I watched the Goonies tonight. One of my all time favorite movies, and it's been several years now since I last watched it. I had forgotten how purely awesome it is. However, I did have a weird moment. I picked up one of Patrick's friends and brought him back to my parents house and on the way I saw weird lights flashing in the sky. Like airplanes, but not.

Hehe. Now I'm going to delude myself into thinking it was a UFO.

I was reading the wiki on everyone's favorite attorney and discovered something awesome. You can create a Jack Thompson look-a-like in MK: Armageddon.

Finally! A reason to give that game a second chance!

The paper I was stressing like crazy over? It's not due until next week. Which is...really good. Really, really good.

We bought the Christmas tree and such tonight, we're going to put it up tomorrow. I'm really exciting about it, actually. This will be the first time I've ever had my own Christmas tree. I know it seems like something really silly to be excited about, but I am. It's got clear lights, and it'll have red garland and gold ornaments.

And the Steve Irwin action figure will be the angel.

Yes. We're all going to hell. In a handbasket, at that. :)

EDIT: You know, the music at the Blue Note is quite soothing. I think I have a new place to hangout, aside from Hentai High! (Although, that furry club Wolven took me to was awesome, even if I was a bit out of place. ^_^)
