What a weekend

feeling

I just noticed today that my Little Prince fell off my keyring. And it must’ve been yesterday at least in which case I hope I can find it near my grandma’s house. If not then it’s probably around the college somewhere. I’m sure I had it on Friday though as I left class… *sigh* I was really fond of that key ornament. And I have no idea where my sister got it, someone gave it and another one to her mine being the Little Prince in his princely costume with sword and hers being the Little Prince in his pale outfit with green scarf and the fox by his side.

I clogged up the drain on Friday and my mom and I are still having a jolly time unclogging it with a whole bottle of Dran-o and a not-very-useful snake. We looked at two houses today and I really liked both in different ways. The biggest problem is bathrooms thanks to my sister, Kristin. She needs her own bathroom but even though she has her own bathroom now she doesn’t bloody well use it because a) she’s left enormous amounts of clothes and junk in there, b) thanks to said clothes lying on the floor the cats have no conniptions about using the bathroom as a kittybox, c) she hasn’t bothered to clean it since then or keep it clean after my mom’s cleaned it for her several times and it smells horrid, and d) she comes into our bathroom to use so many of our things and we yell at her for not putting said things back(she can use them but we can’t if we don’t know where they are) so she probably figures she’ll just get ready in our bathroom where those things are. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

The second house is kind of out in the boonies and it’s adorable with a lovely wood floor and interesting large enough bedrooms… and one small bathroom with the smallest bathtub(that’s still a shower) I’ve ever seen. Kristin also needs her own bathroom because she likes to sit in the damn thing for so long plucking her eyebrows or taking a bath. We shouldn’t bother taking her to see it.

The first house has one bathroom and two half bathrooms one of which is downstairs while all three bedrooms are upstairs. If we take that house, I’m thinking Kristin can have the slightly smaller second bedroom that’s near the small half-bathroom because she sure as hell can’t claim the bathroom with the shower/bathtub as her own. Who knows what kind of mess it’ll turn into. I can take the small small small bedroom and have my beautiful computer downstairs in the um kitchen nook thing. It’s a nice place but because of our cats the deposit will be twice the rent! Can my aunt and grandmother really cover us for $3000? @_@ Stupid expensive Napa. It’s as close to downtown as we are now though and has two very spacious walk-in closests. Of course the small bedroom doesn’t get one…

I didn’t get the Simpsons fanlisting or the Wonderfalls fanlisting. I think I rambled and begged way too much on The Simpsons application, whereas the Wonderfalls owner might’ve come across as the bigger fan and better fanlisting owner? I’m pretty sure not being on the ball quite often with my fls last year hasn’t helped me any. I’d like to rework The Network fanlisting into a fansite but I’ll need some recruits as I suck at news and content. I’ve looked around the Network Message board and they seem to be very tightnit. What does it say about me as a fan if I don’t keep up on all the news and go to message boards to talk with other fans? I mean, some of my most favorite things I barely ever dive into the fandom and fansites. Like the Beatles, the Simpsons, South Park, the X-Files. If I do it’s because it’s related to web design and graphics (like Tere’s Art) or completely informational. I think I use the internet to fill my fix. I get a good dose of these things normally. Harry/Draco, I can only satisfy online. I need the internet to connect with other fans because I can’t ever find any without it. “I’d say Lizzy/Darcy should be quite high on the greatest romantic couples in literature but I’m really keen on Harry/Draco too.” That’ll work.

I was joining fanlistings in the games category yesterday so I had the sudden urge to play either Monkey Island 3 or Day of the Tentacles. But I’ve only played DotT once or twice and MI3 three or four times and less than a year ago so I ran to my grandma’s and asked Jeremy for DotT. Of course he couldn’t find it, I must’ve asked about it awhile ago because that sounds familiar… I stayed up until 5am playing Monkey Island 4 for the first time. The graphics weren’t as bad as I thought they would be. I was very fond of the cartoon look in 3, but they’re still cartoony in a way. Elaine’s voice isn’t as cool and everything isn’t quite as funny… Where’s Murray?! But it’s fun and I’ll finish it tonight. But first must set the vcr to record Simpsons and then eat some ice cream. Mmmm…
