I haven't really updated in a long time. D: So, in case anyone's interested... here you go!

My birthday's come and gone, and it was mostly fun. I had a dinner with my friends on the 6th, since I was going to be in Boulder on my actual birthday. Everyone seemed to have a good time. :D Gerardo, Nic, Shannon, Kira, Jackie and myself ended up staying until Old C's closed because we were having fun talking to each other.

I went to see Regina Spektor with my sister on my birthday, and that was mostly fun. We did get into a fight early on in the night, however, and that made everything after that kind of awkward. It was over the stupidest thing, too, but... oh well.

School-wise. I ended up dropping Astronomy, since I couldn't learn anything from my online class. Which means I'm not graduating this semester. Instead, I'm going to take Meteorology and graduate in the spring (hopefully). Now we're on Thanksgiving break, which will be incredibly welcome.

I got Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles on Wednesday, but couldn't start playing it until Thursday night. I'm really happy that they were able to get back a lot of the actors to play their characters again, especially Leon's and Claire's. I mean, Alyson is the only one to have played Claire in English, so it would have been awkward to hear anyone else. I beat it last night, so now I'm going through and trying to find all of the files I missed the first time around.

Supernatural is going to kill me. :| No new episodes until January 21st? Augh! This last one ended so memorably, too. I don't know what I'm going to do if the CW does end up renewing it for a sixth season. Where can they possibly go from what's been going on in season five?

Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance." I can't stop listening to it. :|

Okay, I think that's everything. And have a meme, courtesy of hyper_amychao! :D

( Click click. )

I think that my answer to this would be the Skold vs. KMFDM CD. It's one of the few albums where I love every single song on there (except for the interludes, but those don't count since they're just minute long clips of the songs on the album). Tim Skold and KMFDM are also a match made in industrial heaven. In my opinion, it's what I would consider a "perfect" CD.

And my icon is how I feel right now. xD I'm going to try and go into work early tomorrow (hopefully by 6:30 at the latest)... but we'll see how that goes.

Or is it the other way around? I can't really tell anymore. xD

So, it's been a while since I updated this thing! Halloween came and went without incident, and now we're into November!

October ended with an almost blizzard, Tina is broken again (sob), and November's actually been pretty good so far. We're having summer weather; today was up to about 73 or 75, and tomorrow is supposed to be even warmer. That's good, seeing as how tomorrow is my birthday and I want to have lovely weather to enjoy it in! :D

I went to see Rob Thomas in concert with my dad on the 27th, and I must say I'm very impressed. The guy played nearly two hours straight, and was engaging and funny while he was doing it. I have so much more respect for him and the other bands that played with him.

Speaking of concerts, I'm going down to Boulder tomorrow to see Regina Spektor with my little sister. Hopefully that will be a good show!

All right, time to go do some girly things and get ready for my birthday dinner tonight, and enjoy my second viewing of the episode of Supernatural that was on last night.

I just have one thing to say:

DONUT! :(

After a few days of unsuccessfully trying to install the copy of Windows 7 I purchased, I've decided to give up for now and go back to Vista. xD When and if I decide to install it again, I may need to take my laptop to Best Buy or some other professional so they can see what's exactly wrong with my computer.

Anyway! Not much has been happening... school sucks. I'm totally rebelling against my online class, which is bad. I need it to graduate and move on. But I'm finding out that I really need classroom contact and an actual instructor to learn from. :| I'm thinking about dropping it and just putting off my graduation from Front Range for another semester, so I can go ahead and take it on campus. I'll look and see if I can drop it now and get a refund.

Speaking of money, we got our quarterly bonuses on Friday! 8D That was quite a blessing, seeing as how I was in desperate need of funds. I put $500 in my savings account, which is over half of my bonus, and placed the rest in my checking. Hopefully that $500 will stay there, unless I have an emergency and need to spend it.

Rob Thomas concert on Tuesday and the Regina Spektor concert on my birthday! I swear, I've been to more concerts in the last month than I have all year. ALH also had their first public Fort Collins performance last night. Despite a few sound problems, they sounded great! Everyone in the crowd really had an awesome time, it seems like.

Man. My birthday's in less than two weeks, and I still have no idea what I want to do for it.

Okay, time to end this boring post. :|

You know, I think this is the most I've updated my LJ in a week's time... ever. Kind of awesome! But also kind of peyote.

Man. I've done almost nothing since I got home. xD Here's been my day, in review:

I worked a nine hour shift today (it was Payables day today). I got everything done, but it took fricking forever. Man, I hate Payables day. At least it only comes once a month.

After work, I went and got dinner, then ate it while I watched some episodes of Supernatural. I was planning on taking a nap and then starting the homework I need to do after that.

I got the nap in, and I've been looking at my Accounting homework since about 8:00 p.m. Is it done? No. Has it even been started? ...No.

I did do one productive thing, though. I finished tagging all of the entries in my LJ. xD Looking back through some of them makes me cringe. I don't like the person I used to be, and I wonder if I'm still that person. I think that, if I had the chance, I would go back and change things. Decisions, people, events... I think that I would try to do things differently.

Homework time now, I think. Or maybe a shower first.

And lastly, a Halloween meme! :D

( My Halloween party! )

xD Well, I had quite the harrowing night. For about three hours, it felt like my throat was closing up; the only kind of breathing I could do was shallow and I ended up wheezing a lot. I know it wasn't allergies, since I took two pills for it and they didn't have any effect.

From about midnight to 3 a.m., I only got little snatches of sleep because I would wake up feeling like I couldn't breathe. I did end up falling asleep for good sometime after 3:15, and my throat felt like normal when I woke up this morning.

I don't like it. I don't like it at all.

Oh, Colorado. xD You have such crazy weather. Yesterday, before the concert the weather was beautiful. Sunny, warm... if I had to guess, I'd say it was around 60 or 65 degrees. When we were standing in line for the doors of the Gothic to open, it was getting a little chilly on account of the breeze. When we got out of the show... goddamn was it cold. xD It had been (and still was) snowing in Fort Collins, so we got to drive home in the first snow of the season. It only just stopped snowing a short while ago.

I heard someone say once that Colorado is great because you can experience all four seasons in a matter of a few days to a week. How very true.

But anyway. Last night was the KMFDM concert. :D I'm putting the events of the night under a cut, since I think it's going to be really long.

( Best Friday ever? )

School's been going okay for me so far! My Accounting class ends next week, which is kind of sad. It's been my favorite one so far, and I'm doing really well in it. I got my third test back today and I got a 100% on it. But, I now have Astronomy to look forward to, along with Art History and Comparative Religion.

On a totally unrelated note, to the point of my post. xD So, hyper_amychao has a coworker at the gas station named Anthony. I've met him a few times (mostly whenever we've gone in there on her days off) and he's a pretty funny guy. She told me about some of the times he's gone in there on his own days off, when she was working. Apparently he's taken quite an interest in me and told her that he was going to ask me out. I thought "Well, whatever, I'm never going to see him when he's not working, so I don't need to worry about him asking me out."

Yeah. That all changed tonight. xD I stopped in there after I got out of my classes, since hyper_amychao was bored and wanted me to come see her. And, Anthony happened to be there at the same time. He'd had a few beers and ended up asking me out for dinner AND breakfast. I tried to turn him down as gently as I could, since all of the days he has off I have other things going on (school, work, etc). He was like "Awww, I feel hurt. But I can tell a no when it's a no. But, just think about it."

I'm flattered that he liked something about me enough to ask me to dinner. xD But, he's in his mid forties to early fifties and smokes/drinks quite a bit. Even if he wasn't old enough to be my dad, I probably wouldn't have said yes. Smoking is something that I find incredibly unattractive; and ever since the whole alcohol thing with my dad, I feel very uncomfortable if I'm around a lot of alcohol or someone who drinks a lot.

So, yeah. That's that.

I'm tired now. Time to go read for a bit.

Double post, yay. xD

Okay, peeps. Is there anyone on my friends list in Fort Collins who needs a mattress? I have an extra one I'm trying to get rid of. Here are the specifications:

-Queen size.
-Almost brand new; I've only been sleeping on it for about a month to two months now, and before that I don't think it had been used very much.
-There is no frame or box spring.

At this point, I'm just really eager to get it out of here. So, if anyone's interested, feel free to come by and take a look at it! Money for it would be awesome, but definitely not required.

I do believe in astrology. xD I can't even count the number of books that I have on it. I don't check my horoscope on a daily basis, though.

Anyway, here are some quizzes I've had hanging around for a while, along with a meme taken from hyper_amychao and rydiafantasy. :D

( Boy howdy! )

Saw the Harry Potter movie again tonight. It was definitely better the second time around. 8D I'm getting an urge to read the sixth and seventh books again, and then read the rest of the series for the first time.

Real update is coming soon; I just don't feel very chatty at the moment. So, here! Have a piping hot meme, fresh from hyper_amychao's journal! :D

...Okay, that sounded really pedo.

Ship meme! Reply with a fandom and I'll fill this out for it.

• One True Pairing Ship:
• Canon Ship:
• "If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship:
• "You are one sick puppy" Ship:
• "I dabble a little" Ship:
• "It's like a car crash" Ship:
• "Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship:
• "Makes no canon sense but why the heck not" Ship:
• "Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship:

It's 4:13 a.m.

I haven't been to sleep yet. This is due to the fact that Jessie and Kelly were being so gd loud in her room that it was hard to try and sleep. Since I had accounting homework to do (and because our internet was working again :D), I decided to do that.

I started at about 1:15 or 1:30, maybe. I just now finished. That accounting problem we had to do had about a million parts (and each took a good half hour to forty-five minutes). :|

Stupid school.

I am so happy right now.

In other news, shopping was fun! I found some pants for about $7.00, six pairs of socks for about $3.00, and the latest NANA manga. :D Dinner was delicious, and it was all around a good day!

I should really start studying for my Art History test on Tuesday... man. I don't want to, though. I'll do it later.

I think it's sad that I just got paid yesterday and I already have no money left over. Of course, my C/C payment is due before we get paid again, so I had to take care of that with this paycheck. Otherwise, I would have had plenty left over.

Hmmm. I think I'll find something to do.

Back from NDK. 8D I'm going to have to make this short, since I'm tired and about ready to go to bed.

Pictures are coming. I have about 45 of them to post, so I'm definitely not getting to them tonight. But all of them turned out really great!

I had a lot of fun this weekend. The con itself was bleh; definitely not the best I've been to. However, it was nice to get away from work and school and be with my friends. It was especially nice to see some who I haven't seen since Wasabi back in March.

Okay, bedtime now. <3

About 12 hours later and I'm still pissed off at that guy. xD

Great. I have a feeling that this entire week will be like today was.

Oh, Caboose. xD I love that. "Now we're back to square one: scary square." I rewatched Red vs. Blue: Reconstruction tonight when I should have made myself useful by cleaning, or... ummm, filling out this paper for work, or sleeping. Mostly cleaning, though. Much love for Agent Washington.

I didn't expect it to actually happen, but my boss at work is actually going to do our reviews tomorrow and Thursday, right before she goes on vacation for a week. When I hadn't heard anything since our meeting at the beginning of the month, I was beginning to doubt her. xD That's the paper I need to fill out for work; she wants our personal opinions on what the office as a whole is doing well/could improve on, and what we personally are doing well/could improve on. I don't want to fill it out. :| I wasn't nervous about it before, but now I feel it a little bit. Tomorrow at 2:30 p.m. is D-Day.

Speaking of work... I have a small rant. xD You can skip this if you like, it's just me being mad.

( Rant under here! )

I did have a nice surprise waiting for me tonight. There is a new, gorgeous looking trailer for Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles out. yzak was wonderful enought to post it in her personal LJ and the comm she runs.

I cannot fucking wait for that game.

This was taken from Ana and Shannon. <3

( I should get business cards that say 'Professional beast'... )

Sorry for the double post, guys! 8D

But this is why I was making my previous LJ post in the first place. xD Does anyone want to go see that movie Gamer with me? I think it looks badass... here's a link to the trailer if you haven't seen it yet.

September 4th isn't that far away!

Oh man. I am so unbelievably tired. I went to bed at 10:30 last night, had trouble falling asleep, and woke up at 3 a.m. Finally got up at 5 and headed into work at 6:30, where I had a really stressful day. xD Even with that extra hour and a half, with no lunch, I still didn't get everything done that I wanted to. Although, I did finish about six days of retail today, so that was pretty awesome.

Supernatural starts officially next month! I'm very excited for season five, although I'll be down in Denver for NDK when it premieres.

Oh yeah! hyper_amychao and I saw this guy playing the trumpet in his car while driving today. Not only was he a retard, but he was also a douchebag. xD We tried to get a picture of it but we couldn't see the guy clearly in it.

Red vs. Blue is slowly taking over my life again. It's been nice getting back into the fandom (and actually seeing the majority of the series) after so many years of being away from it.

Also, I'm never trusting my dad and anything he says again. Ever.

I hope I don't feel so angry at people before the week is over.
