La la la la

Man, I love long weekends. Here is what I've done so far:
Got up at ten, got dressed.
Watched X-Files.
Practiced piano for half an hour.
Watched X-Files.
Practiced guitar.
Made a snowman. Yes, I was very bored. I was going to make it life sized but I was running out of snow. I found a carrot for the nose and branches for the arms, but I couldn't figure out what to use for the eyes. I looked in the pantry and found some chocolate cookies. I gave one to Dallas and one to Scottie, which was a mistake because I put the cookies in as eyes and went inside, and when I looked out, Dallas had one of the eyes in her mouth and Scottie was jumping on the snowman to get the other one, endangering the snowman's life. Then after a little work, Dallas got the other one. I then found some craft eyes, and put those instead, before first showing Dallas so she wouldn't mistake them for chocolate cookies.

I had weird dreams last night. Here is what they were:

One: I was in a wheelchair, but I could sort of walk too. I was in school and was trying to get up the stairs but I couldn't so Lauren and Amber carried me. Then I was at some kind of buffet/grocery store, and I wanted some water but I didn't have enough money, and Maria gave me this coupon from McDonald's for a bottle of water. And then for some reason I went to the buffet, but forgot to get food.

Two: I had an adopted brother, which was the little kid from Rock School (I think his name is Chris?) and he was on the computer and I wanted to go on but he's like, "I'm on right now" and then I freaked out and was like, "THIS IS MY F***IN HOUSE, AND I WANT TO GO ON THE F***IN COMPUTER, SO GET THE F*** OFF!"

Three: I was at a Simple Plan concert with Stacey, Heidi, and some other friends, and we were at the rail and David was singing some song from the forties, and he was singing to me and then he pulled me up on the stage and was twirling me around and then I went back to my place and Stacey was all jealous.

I was sure I was going to dream about X-Files since I watched seven episodes in one day alone, but I didn't. Except I think the wheelchair thing came from an episode about a boy who could heal people by touching them, and there were a lot of people in wheelchairs. That was a very funny episode. This boy (Samuel) could heal people, but sometimes they died when he touched them, but they were being poisoned by some other guy. Anyway, Samuel touched this girl in a wheelchair, and she started seizing and everyone's freaking out, and Samuel's father, who is a preacher, was like, "Don't panic! Just praise the Lord!" It was very funny.
I loooove the Lone Gunmen. They are these three paranoid computer geeks on X-Files. Two are stereotypical geeks, but the other one is very clean cut and wears a suit. Anyway, Mulder and Scully went to them to find out about Gulf War syndrome. For the purpose of this story, we will name the Lone Gunmen: Corner (because he sits in the corner) Long Hair, and Suit. One of the Lone Gunmen said some conspiracy theory, and Scully kind of snorted, and Long Hair was like, "is this your skeptical partner?" and Corner was like, "she's hot." Then Suit said something about a government UFO cover up, and Scully was like, "the government can't even manage a deficit or lower crime rates, how can they manage something sophisticated like this?" and Corner was like, "she IS hot!" Then later Scully and Mulder were in Mulder's office and Scully's like, "they were the most paranoid people I've ever met! How can you think anything they said is even remotely plausible?" and Mulder said, without even looking up, "I think it's remotely plausible that someone would think you're hot." Scully just kind of looked at him. I love how she ignores Mulder when he says stuff like that.

I watched an episode today involving mentally handicapped people, and I know it may be kind of mean, but at the end Roland had to go away to trial or something, and his friend Tracy came in his room to say goodbye, and she's like, "Roland, I love you," and he's like, "me too." A rare touching moment in X-Files. It reminded me of Heidi telling me about a movie and a deaf person was like, "Pe-ah, I wuv oo." Then I watched some of X-Files in French, which for some reason made me start to laugh and I couldn't stop. It was HILARIOUS, even more hilarious than Lord of the Rings or Dudley in Harry Potter going "TRENTE SIX! L'ANNEE PASSE J'AI EU TRENTE SEPT!"

We got our Billy Talent tickets today! Section G, row 3, seats 5 and 6. I'm pretty excited.

Anyway, I am going now to watch the season finale of X-Files, and I've made a decision to force myself to not start watching Season 2 today. Then I'm only going to watch one episode a day, to make it last. It will be hard, but I'm confident that I can do it.

Ciao!

It's me, I'm back and editing since I'm bored and I want so badly to watch more X-Files, but I'm forcing myself to watch only one a day now (I kind of let myself go with Season 1 because I knew I had more. I watched eight episodes yesterday, and three the day before, and three today, so I really have to stop watching it so fast) But I want X-Files to last because I'm trying not to buy any more until Christmas, which is actually not that long away, and I have to save my money.

I was reading over comments on Heidi's blog, and here are some funny ones:

you wrote:"my name is heidi. and that's a kind of popular name, but ITS SO FRICKIN WEIRD!"okay, i thought that amanda wrote that. but you did. so, really i should of said"you mean your name is robin" b/c you put heidi not robin. your robin, not me.so complicated.

I'm going through X-Files withdrawal. OH MY GOSH, SO OBSESSED WITH IT! AHHHHH!
On the back of Season 2 Mulder and Scully look like people from the fifties. It's kind of creepy.

I was looking through my piano music today and I found a jazz book that I borrowed from Mrs. Kennedy and I'm almost positive I didn't buy it. Anyway, she moved away and I don't think she knows I stole a book from her. Also, a couple of years ago I borrowed the sheet music for "My Heart Will Go On" from Danielle, who borrowed it from Mrs. Kennedy, and I never gave that back either. No one has noticed as of yet.

I'm not sure what Miss Graas is planning to do in CW when we're done poetry. I mean, we've done short stories, biographies, poetry, what else is there to do?
I'm ashamed of this, but the IP is due on December 8th and I'm already done my third draft, and if I worked hard I could have it completely done today. I'm such a keener. Lisa did the cover art (which ROCKS) it has the silhouette of a girl looking at the stars and you can very faintly see alien eyes. I'm kind of worried that since it's an INDEPENDENT project, I'll get in trouble for getting someone else to do the cover art but actually I'm not that worried. I did all the "creative writing" myself, which is the point of the class. I sent it to my sister to edit, but that was a very very very long time ago (back in late September/early October) and she hasn't read it yet, so I'm not really putting that much faith in her.

I had easy mac today. It says not to drain the water because you need it to make the cheese sauce, but that much water makes it tasteless, so I'm going to have to experiment a bit.

Let's play What Did I Have To Eat Today? (Lol Maria)
-Easy mac
-Carrots
-Bagel and cream cheese

I sure don't eat a lot on weekends. Wow.
Anyway, I'm going to go now. Ciao!
