About 30 minutes ago I was on my way to the store with Meg and we stopped to check the mail and low and behold there was a card from My Gillian! Its the most kick ass Halloween card EVER! I shit you not. It has Hermione on it and I love it! Thanks so much Gill!! I miss you too! (On a side note it looks as if Im married to John Mayer, since my last name is now hyphenated. KICK ASS.)((Gill, does John know?)) Oh, also, Gills in Cali...how are those out of control wild fires man?
So, this morning at 5:00 the power goes out on our block which has two huge apartment complexes on it and numerous houses. I feel bad for those that didnt have cracked out kitties to keep them up all night. They must have had a rude awaking this morning when there alarm didnt go off and they missed class. Sucks for them.
Anyways, Im trying to do homework but I think its going to backfire. I need some dinner and I need to call Chels and Kayla, so, I will see what happens.
Its windy here Mary Poppins style and its suppose to snow tomorrow. :(

2:30 AM
I got my pictures back from RingCon today. Im just really disappointed with them, but, you know what, Im not pissed about it because I have my memories and they are unique and no one else can claim them...Ok, Im bitter, but, fuck it. Really. I got to talk to Craig and Jorn and it was spectacular.
Today I came home from my parents house and rolled into Cheney at about 10:30. After debating on going to class or not, I deiced to clean my room and go to the store with Jen while simultaneously skipping my first to classes. I went to English a 2:00 and Im glad I did since we went over mid term shit.
We found a cat in the parking lot of our apartments and took it to Safeway with us. We bought kitty food, as its a kitty, cat litter, even kitties have to poo, and a collar too. Reasons why this was a bad idea:
-We cant have pets in our apartments
-This could be someones kitty (it knows about kitty litter boxes and food bowls, its well educated in kitty protocol)
-It likes to eat my blankets and droll on them
-Meg thinks its possessed
-I already have a cat
Anyways, I think we are going to take it to a shelter and see if someone is looking for it as Jens convinced she has stolen a little girls cat and Meg is like, "its going to kill us all"!
So, I'll keep you updated on the kitty happenings. Jen wants to name it Oreo or Socks, I think Meg said Aqua. I was like, dude, you know when you give your kids bad names and they are made fun of them for the rest of their life, well, when we tell people what our cats name is they are going to make fun of us for the rest of our lives because those names SUCK so MUCH.
I have yet to decide on a name but some constellation in October would be a smart plan as it has reason and sounds cool, no?
Ok, Im going to bed with the devil. Hope to be alive to blog tomorrow as everyone is afraid of the cat except me.
I live with retards.

Jorn in Leather. Could you ask for more?

Home Again
Sunday, October 26, 2003
11:45 PM
Im home. Like, Parents house home. Home in Cheney was full of dirty clothes and no food. My parent house has a washer and dryer and Raviolis. This is home.
And now onto my weekend of CRAZYNESS.
Friday I got to Tashas LATE because I GOT LOST trying to find Zachs Parents house because ZACH cant give directions. This is sad. SO, Meg and I drive around Everett and Mukilteo stopping in at like Dennys and asking some guy for directions because no one else is helping. We finally made it to Zachs Parents house only to find that Zachs mom was not answering the phone because she was DRUNK as HELL. She felt bad, she was like, I didnt even here it (the phone), Im so sorry, and I was just like, tell me how to get to the FING FREEWAY and I will be fine...SO, I got to Tashas, we hung out all night, didnt get much sleep then...
Saturday RingCon was upon us. We got up late, we picked Jen up late, we got lost and some how got onto I-90 and had to turn around in Issaquah, but, dont fear, we made it to Tacoma. We went in, got our tickets and the first room we went into Craig and Jorn and Bruce were all signing autographs. I saw Craig, and just FREAKED OUT. I didnt even like the guy, thats Tashas thing, but man, it was great. I pointed him out to Tash and we proceeded to freak out with each other while Jen looked on and laughed. (Jen came with Meg and I and went to RingCon with Tash and I, she had fun, thats a side note, thanks.) We waited in line for an hour and finally got up there for pictures with the Actors and Autographs. "Haldir" of Lothlorien played by Craig Parker, "Gamling", Captain of Rohan played by Bruce Hopkins and "Rumil" of Lothlorien (brother of "Haldir") Jorn Benzon were all at the Con. I bought a REALLY cute glossy of Craig in civilian clothes and had him sign it. While he was talking to me he asked if I was going to the ball that night. I was like, ah, should I? He said that it sounded like fun and that I should check it out. He was SO cute. I REFUSE to believe he is GAY. REFUSE TASHA, YOU HEAR ME. Then I got a picture with him. He smelled wonderful and was so nice and I cant say enough nice things about him. A great guy, really. Then, Tasha had her go with Craig after two boys cut in front of her. I swear, she almost laid the smack down on the kids. She was like franticly yelling, "WHAT?!"as the second boy cut in front of her...so funny. THEN, she gives Craig this beautiful $80.00 copy of LOTRs. He proceeded to sign it on the wrong page and spell her name wrong. But, fear not, after Jens life saving suggestion, he used a bigger pen and traced over the name mistake and spelled her name correctly. You should have seen her face. Priceless. After this hoopla she got a picture with him thats insanely cute and I love it. I can only hope that the picture I took with Craig turned out as well. After the autograph craziness we dinked around till the Craig Parker one on one started. I cheated and got us wonderful seats after shmozing with the security guard. This, I might add, was the second time I had talked to him in one day, keep that in mind. Ok, so, good seats, Craig is motherfucking funny as hell. I want to marry him. Really, sorry Tash. I took pictures, I laughed, Tashas batteries craped out and she didnt get as many picture/video as she wanted. After this we proceeded to hang out until we noticed that Jorn Benzon was hanging out in the room and talking to fans. After a group of 5 girls had their share of him, I nervously walked up to him with Jen and Tash in tow and started up a conversation. We talked for a good 15 minutes. He is incredibly nice and cute and just fun to talk to. All three of us got a picture with him and to his disappointment we told him we were leaving to go get smashed. He was like, your not going to the dance? He told us to have fun getting smashed and watched us walk away. We should have stayed. :'(
By this time in the day I had talked to the same security guard four times and he was with Jorn when he told us to have fun getting smashed. SO.....
We get back to Tashas house, decide to go back to RingCon on Sunday and go to bed. I was fucking tired. We had taken Jen to her aunts house in Kirkland and then we ate at Tashas then went and picked up Jen again, mind you we went the wrong fucking way and were lost as hell for a bit, but, we picked Jen up, when to a STUPID party and then ended up going to Tashas and watching FOTR. I then took Jen home AGAIN and back to Tashas for the night.
Sunday it was just Tash and I at RingCon. We made it to the Actors Question and Answer which was SO SO SO SO SO SO FUNNY. Bruce is like a comic genius and CRAIG is like SO excellent. I cant even tell you. He just kept me smiling and laughing and just glowing the entire time. Of course after this was Autographs AGAIN. While we were in line that Security Guard came up to me and whispered in my ear, so, you guys get completely toasted last night. I was SO FREAKED OUT. Im like, why the FUCK is this kid hitting on me. EW EW EW. After that Tash wanted more pictures so we got pictures of her with Craig and then Jorn alone again. Afterwards it was off to take Tasha home. I dropped Tash off and went to Jens aunts place where I got Jen then we meet Meg and her bad directions boyfriend at the Gas station and finally went home. After all the driving I had done all weekend Jen drove home which was a nice change (we took my car) but now I am SO FING tired I could just sleep for Days. I need to do my math home work and reading for my history class but I just want to sleep. Eh.
All in all, it was a brilliant weekend. I miss Tasha already. Shes like the funest girl to hang out with and RingCon was just full of great memories and I love Craig and Jorn. They where just Kiwis. Cheers boys. Im out!

Yo. Im on the West side.(I typed East first, Tash was like, wtf?) Its fucking cold as fuck here and Tasha is talking about Swimming. Nerd. Anyways, I dont think we are going to get any sleep and I am going to die driving to RingCon. What else is new.
OK, and I have like the story of a life time. You wouldnt even BELIEVE the shit I went through getting to Tashas house. This is all Zack, Megs lovers fault. Anyways, I biffed it in Kirkland and it all went down hill from there. I'll give you a full account of it later on, right now I cant think, like always, and one of Tashas friends is trying to get me on cam. Ew. I look like ass. Anyways, Im out. I will get to the story when I get home to the comfort of my apartment. I dont even want to spell check this. But, for your reading enjoyment, I will.

ROAD TRIP!

MAN. The first part of today is going to suck. I have a test in each of my three classes.
I see this happening: Im going to kick my History tests ass, my Math test is going to kick my ass, and then my day will end with me finishing my essay in English. Good clean fun. Then... onto Seattle! Woot! Meg and I (She is going to visit her boyfriend, its his birthday)((lots of sex)) are leaving at about 3:30 or whenever I get my ass packed and new CDs burned and some other things I am sure I will forget.
Oh, and another thing. I have a gay uncle. I think this will give me extra points with Craig since I understand gays. Thats just what I am thinking. Ok, enough randomness. Im going to get ready for class.

Fat Fingers are NOT COOL
2:21 PM
I woke up this morning, and, low and behold, I had trouble taking off my one ring, no, not that One Ring, anyways...the point is, my fingers are getting fatter, Hansel and Gretal style. I dont like it.
Last night I was thinking of things to do with my blog and I didnt get to sleep for ages. Its like when I had my other site I used to obsessively change my layouts and always add new things. This is not safe.
Im going to Seattle in 1 DAY. WOOT. Its time for Tasha and no sleep and a little Craig. Whos jealous? Thats what I though.
Im off to class in about 15 minutes. I really dont want to finish my English mid-term. I just had to write about embedded reporters in Iraq and how the Pentagon limits what they can report. I dont even know where I am going with the Essay now. BLAH.

To the Front to the Back to the Blog?
1:46 AM
Wow. Would you look at this? After years of not having my own place on the web, you know, after my little Sailor Moon web thing, I dont want to go into it, Im back and into action. Er, sorta. If you call this bad boy (girl?) action. Anyways, here is my future dreams for this place...ok, I dont have any. But, I am guessing its just going to be me, my random thoughts, ranting, making fun of people and the like. Enjoy.
You know you want to.
Edit/ check out my non existent links. I am sure, one day, if I post enough, I will have archives. Maybe. Hehehhee.
