It took me a full 24 hours but I convinced Bill to come watch New Moon with me. Honestly, I think he secretly liked it but his mainly persona is preventing him from admitting it :P

Fortunately there weren't many screaming fan girls in the movie theatre. When Jacob took his shirt off the first time there was some ogling, but other than that things were pretty quiet.

My sorta vent: I thought today would be a good day to go grocery shopping but nooo. Everyone and their mother had the same idea! Geez. I thought, lets not go Sunday because everyone will be preparing early for thanksgiving, and lets not go Tuesday or Wednesday because all the last minute people will be going nuts, but Monday? That seems safe. Nope. It was a zoo, and not one of those cute fun zoos.

So...it looks like it's going to be five to ten business days before my internet / digital phone is up and running. Grrr. Fortunately I'm going to be out of town for four days starting Wednesday, so that takes up three business days there...hopefully it'll be fixed by the time I'm back next Monday. Sooo...it's a power session of interneting on my parents' computer!

I spent four hours at my old apartment today, moving the last dregs of stuff and cleaning up. But holy ####### there's a lot of stuff that I should probably do...but don't have the gumption to do it. I mean, the apartment is clean from a live-in standpoint...but I'm not sure if it's up to snuff when it comes to new tenants moving in etc. At this point, I'm fine with my former landlord just taking it out of my security deposit, if need be. I also don't react well to cleaning solvents...I tend to not be able to breathe when I'm using them. And you can't clean if you can't breathe.

Hey Wyatt!!! i was wondering where the heck you were today...

Husband left his afternoon and I've been bumming around since. Playing with my new Netbook! It ROOOOOCKS! I absolutely love it to bits and bits. Seriously. He turned it into a Macintosh, so it's a teeny little MacBook and i loves it.

So... yeah... That's about all i got. I am so freaking envious that your place is all cleaned and stuff. I am NOT looking forward to that. Husband had a car here so we took the remaining goodwill bags to donation and there's a crapload of stuff to do...

I will leave my place clean but I am SO glad about the security deposit thing, I always hated that BS. we pay first and last here in Ontario and that is it. It's just the last month's rent.

OH and I will tell you, I HATE using other people's computers. Hate it and in the inverse, I hate people using my computer too. I find them akin to my journal or personal papers and stuff.

Two words for you my friend. Net. Book.

:D

Nice to 'see' you...

Lemme know what NVC has to say to you tomorrow, okay?

I'm kinda sick of hearing about Twilight on TV.

Every single time I say something about it or make an *ugh* noise with my mom around I end up getting yelled at to be quiet :lol:
