Moving Day

I seriously hate moving. It's always like "What do I need?" "I've packed way too many things but I have a sneaky feeling that I didn't pack enough" and "Where do I put all this crap in the limited space provided by the apartment."

Seriously, it sucks. And what's more is that I forgot my beloved goaties!!! They're at home wrecking havoc on my dolphin figurines and no doubt taunting Midnight and Peej. Well, I'll be home in a couple of weeks, maybe, so I'll get them then.

But, yeah, I don't like moving. It sucks. But I'm here in Cedar City reading Fruits Basket until I fall asleep in my rather comfortable bed. I'm such a boy. All I have is a sheet and a blanket, but that's all I really need. Going on a mission, and to Nihon of all places, kinda makes you live off the bare necessities with pleasure. Seriously, I'd sleep in a mummy bag on the bed if Mom hadn't been around to stop me.

Sasuga helicopter mom. Everyone give her a round of applause. yeah, that's right! Okaasan, otsukaresama desu! And give a big clap for Father Time, who works his but off to pay for my college tuition and apartment. But not mine alone but Mother's and Chris's tuition and housing as well. Not to mention transportation, fun, food, and heating.

Gosh, aren't parents great? Especially when they care more about family than their personal image.

Well, that's all for now. I'm going to see how many people are reading this by doing something crazy.

Waiting. . .waiting. . .

Sooooo, I ordered the Dalemark Quartet Vol. 2 (contains the last two books) a month ago and I still haven't gotten it yet. It's so weird because I have never been this impatient before, but I'm chomping at the bit! I want my book! I'm still reading The Drowned Ammet, and I'm only a third of the way through it. I've been on a writing spree recently (yatta!) so I haven't been reading much. But when I order a book, I do get a little impatient.

Still, it's two days past the due date and I still haven't gotten it. I sent an email to the seller but I haven't gotten a response yet. so, I'm going to try to be patient and give the guy one more week before I demand all my money back and buy it from somewhere else.

I really do want that book at a decent price. I hope it comes soon! *crosses fingers, toes, tongue, and hair* Please oh please let it come.

Rupert, that grenade launcher is not a toy to play with. Please get down from there before you waste on of my grenades. They're very hard to come by, y'know.

Slacker

So, I was sitting the other day thinking about how much I've changed since my mission and I realized that I used to post random stuff on my blog. But, lately, I haven't been doing much randomness. It has nothing to do with having a facebook page now. I don't do much on facebook as all of my friends can testify.

but, I have been more scatter-brained than usual. For the first time in my life I want to write more than read! It's a very happy feeling and I've been able to get a lot done. but I still have more to do.

Did I mention that writing sucks sometimes?

but, we went to California and spent a day at Universal Studios, two days at SeaWorld, and a day at the beach. It was lots of fun. But the highlight was that one of my dreams came true. We saw two dolphins swimming along the coast at the beach. It was really cool because I've always wanted to see wild dolphins and I got to see them. I was very happy!

but I made a very important discovery today: don't give chocolate to little brothers. Especially Girl Scout Cookies. It makes them go. . .well, gonzo.

Go look it up Francis, that's a good goat!
