The visit wasn't as bad as it could've been and the one-nighter turned into a two-nighter. There just wasn't enough time to get through all of my old stuff and get back home before it was night. I was still going through a box when 5 o'clock rolled around--that's when night falls in the city and since we were in the 'burbs, it was early. The only/most real uncomfortable thing was me looking for some reading in the bookcase and finding Playboy. Yeah...suure. *coughcough*

I'm so happy! All thanks to invisible-dear. I'm glad to have found another Masterpiece Theater lover. XD No, I didn't get to watch Bleak as I would have liked. I really like Philip Pullman's books so I'm excited about this week's piece--The Golden Compass. Not sure if I'm going to get a chance to watch it though. I'm having trouble persuading my mother that it's a good program and she should allow me to watch.

Hey, here's an idea. Let's have a little contest for 100pps. Prize is negotiable after you win. I'm looking for: the best letter/description of Masterpiece Theater. Objective: my mother to allow me to watch Masterpiece Theater. Thanks! ^-^

p.s. I couldn't, for the life of me, sign in at NuTang yesterday. My dad's comp's McAfee Security kept popping up with "A Cookie was intercepted at [url], accept or cancel" sorta thing. *shrug* But I'm back now. Yay!

Mood: sorta Content
Listening: to Reba sing her theme song
Watching: Reba kick Barbara Jean outta her house in a not-so-complex way.

Well, I watched the last part of Jane Eyre last night. ^-^ It was nice, but it felt a little bit...rushed. I'm still gonna buy it anyway cuz I like it still. We have to see whether or not my dad is in a good enough mood for me to bring it up in the first place, then, whether he'll buy it for me or not.

I'm going to my dad's house tonight after we have dinner tonight. He's in his new place and he wants me to take a look at all my stuff. I don't know if I have my own room anymore. =/ And me and my dad have absolutely nothing to talk about it...god, I'm feeling the pangs in the pit of mah stomach. I'm startin' to dread it now...Oh, lord...

A quick question: Doesn't Rochester regain his sight in one eye?
A random fact: My stomach's a-rumblin'...

wondering whether or not to bring the lappie to occupy her time,

Okay, I am so sorry for that other entry--it totally sucked, it was horrible I apologize feverously and beg for your forgiveness. *bangs forehead against table repeatedly* Ow.

It's so inconvenient without a credit card when you want to buy things online, don't have enough cash or whatever. Yet I keep hearing people say that I shouldn't get credit cards. I understand how they can lead you to debt and throw you down the deep debt well, but what if I just get one credit card?

I don't think I'll be buying a lot of stuff with it. The only things I'd buy from the internet are small and unimportant--trinkets. Things like those you'd find in the Shojobeat magazine. Yes, yes, it's a magazine of manga and Jap things, but hey! My dad got me a subscription without my asking so...*shrug* =] Things like mints in a flat metal case, little USB creatures, tiny fluffy monsters, little lipsticks hanging off straps, etc...

Here, I shall put a little to-do list of all the things I must not forget:

into my purse goes
--hairnet+bobbypins
--two oversized black clips
--mousse
--contacts+solution
--makeup+brushes
(only three from my friends, but hey, it's the thought that counts)
--lady items

into my bag goes
--black pants, capri-sized
--extra top

into my hands go
--(pancake) hats XD

outfit shall be
--stretchy Crunch(gym) shirt w/ zipper
(no idea where we got that from...)
--jeans
--sneakers
--hooded jacket from Caesars(casino)
--down jacket+scarf+gloves

That should be it...I hope. *squeezes eyes tight* I cannot be forgetting anything.

jumping up and down(in her mind) in much anxiety,

BTW: I am sooo excited about Jane Eyre so maybe I AM jumping up and down and squealing. If only my mother could be nice and gentle and negligent for me to watch it this Sunday night~~! Ooh, please, if only, please make it (come) true, Lord.

---***Warning: This is a pretty boring entry...>.>'' Sorry!***

Ah, I've suspended my cell phone service. I waited all day--mind you, I was busy with hope and anxiety mixed together--until I made the final ribbon-cut with a call to my father.

yesterDay's activities:
I called and called hoping they'd pick up. I called my friend so many times, she had to say "Let me eat! I need to eat!" to make me stop calling. >.>'' I found the numbers of a few other friends and got more numbers out of them. They actually picked up once and I began speaking immediately, but they never answered. Nevertheless, I kept on talking; thanking them for finding the phone, telling them to leave it at CVS/pharmacy, they couldn't sell it cuz it was banged up with buttons missing, they couldn't use it cuz I was going to suspend the service--blah, blah, blah.

So anywayz, tonight is the show! >.< Eek! And tomorrow is, too. And there's no rehearsal. My mind is going "Ohno-ohno-ohno-OhNOOOOOOOO!" *shivershake* Ok, now that's out...don't think about it.

I can't wait for Sunday! That's when Masterpiece comes on and hopefully, I'm allowed to watch the last segment of Jane Eyre. I'm so excited, I absolutely love Classics. Did I mention the fact that I'm a true romantic? A Romanticist. I love all things old--antiques, architecture, fashion, literature, etc... And no, I don't use the word "love" very often so yes, that should mean something, eh? ^-^
