I've been gone too long, I hope you don't mind...

Well, I have finally decided that i simply do not have enough money nor do i want to rack up the credit card payment any further, but I'm not tired so i came back here to do some updating. I love this title for my post, its from the Any Given Thursday Version of 3x5 by John Mayer. I switched this thing to the beta stuff, whatever the hell that means, they told me to do it so i did it.

Lets see, right now everyone is asleep. My sister was supposed to play pinball on the computer with me but of course she said, "you go first, I'll lay down right here and watch" and while i looked for one (since our Windows pinball game is curiously absent) she immediately fell asleep. My mom and brother are asleep downstairs and William is semi-asleep right here next to me. My dad is in Dallas with my uncle and their cousin looking at cars for me. So I'm bored and i wanted to play Buffy the Vampire Slayer Chaos Bleeds on my brother's PS2, but he got in trouble today because of a grade he got in school so he's gotten his playstation 2 taken away, well more specifically the controllers have just been hidden and i have no idea where they are, which sucks because i would hardcore play that game right now.

I am in full Christmas mode as of now, well i have been since the day before Thanksgiving. I was buying Christmas presents before Thanksgiving, and then on Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, me, my sister and my mom all went out for Black Friday shopping. Well me and my sister were out of the house at like 2:30 a.m. to go to Sears, which opened at 5 a.m. to get a cordless drill for my dad. We waited in line at Sears because they were handing out $10 giftcards to the first 200 people. So we ended up getting the $80 drill for $26 because it was on sale for $40 and we used the 2 giftcards we got and then we bought the protection plan for it cause it was 6 bucks. Pretty cool. Then we met up with my mom at Target which did not open until 6 a.m., and waited in line there for about 20 minutes or so. Luckily she got there at just the time we told her to get there because the line behind her was massive and she was really close to the front, which was a good thing because we wanted that video rocker thing and they were sold out of those like super quick.

After that we went to Best Buy and got my brother a portable DVD player for $76, which made us all happy. Next it was Circuit City to get Season 1 of House (for $12.99, normally 50 bucks!) for my mom and dad (and really for me too lol, i love that show) and to get some DVDs, and a new Sirius satellite radio kit (20 bucks, normally 50) for my dad. He got XM last year but wants Sirius because it has NFL talk and stuff. The line that we waited in at Circuit City was the most riduculous thing ever. I waited in that line probably an hour and 20 minutes. I was so pissed off. I hate CC already but that just made me feel absolutely certain that i really did hate it. But we did the Robopet from there 3 days ago for $19.99!!! That thing is like 50 bucks everywhere else. Anyway after CC we went to Hastings to get season 2 of House for 16 bucks, also normally 50 bucks or so.

Then we went to Old Navy to get me some new jeans because the jeans i had put on had a hole in the thigh, which had looked cool before but then i just kept messing with it and made it too big to look cool, i just looked poor and trashy lol so i had to buy some new jeans, and luckily they were all 20 bucks. Then we went to Wal-Mart and got the iDog for my brother for 10 bucks to go with the iPod shuffle we bought him a couple of weeks back. It's the older model, not the cool teensy weensy new one, but he's 9 so I think its good for now. We got great stuff that Friday, it was so much fun.

In other buying stuff news, not related to Black Friday, the fucking Nintendo DS Lite that i want, the black one still isn't in at Toys R Us. I hate that fucking store, they suck. I used to love TRU, but no more. We all pitched in to buy my brother the bundle from a few weeks back, it was the DS lite, a starter kit, and a game for $149 which i thought was sweet. But of course they don't have the damn black one, which is the one he wants, nor did they have it that Sunday when the ad first came out and i went. I will keep bugging them until i get one and it will be before Christmas!

Lots of other cool stuff but I have grown tired of writing about it all, lol so I shall quit for now. My dad is looking for a car for me because my car was completely and totally fucked up. Which is crazy because I have only had that car 6 months at the most (but to be fair it is a 2002) and what was wrong with it wasn't something that i did or didnt do, its just something that went wrong with the car, it was a fucking lemon lol. It sucks because it causes such a disruption to have only one car and have 5 people that have so many different places to be at different times. To be honest though, i never really thought this last car was very asthetically pleasing. I mean it was cute sure, a red Focus but not really something that i would ever pick out on my own, (they picked it out for me when they traded in my 11 year old Dodge Neon that i love love loved). So I'm hoping that this car will be something a little more me.

And i think that my uncle, who could possibly be called mr. moneybags, is like buying the car for me, i have no idea what the arrangement is between them but i do know he's financing it in some way if not completely. Plus the other day me, my mom and dad went to Best Buy and bought this sweet new picture printer on sale for $129 normally $169 and then went to TRU and bought the Guitar Hero 2 bundle for my sister (gasp TRU actually had something in stock that they had advertised) and it tured out to be $108 so i think that if the money thing with the car were really super troubling right now we would not have done that, but my parents have done crazier things.

I'm so ready for my vacation, the family that i work for leaves for Florida for 2 weeks on the 23rd or so which is just totally awesome, i love them but i need a break, so I'm marking down those days baby, you better believe it. K well my fingers are slowly developing carpal tunnel syndrome ( "I've developed carpal tunnel syndrome and can tragically no longer hold a flash light.") so i think i shall make this my getting off point. I'm most definitely going to go watch some Buffy or maybe some Angel Season 5 seeing as how that's the only Angel season i have lol, got it from my best friend for my birthday in September. I did ask for Season 1 and my sis asked for Season 2 for Christmas, here's to hoping Santa brings those. I so missed my little blog, did you miss me?

"You should have seen that sunrise
With your own eyes
It brought me back to life
You'll be with me next time I go outside

Just no more 3x5's" "3x5" by John Mayer

Night.
