Hello people!
I set my alarm for 10:00, but I didn't get up til 11:00 today. It was kinda nice to sleep that extra hour. I needed it; I was up til 3:00 last night. I beat MGS (with help from Nick for the REX battle - I beat Liquid atop REX myself) and started a new game, cuz once you beat it, you get a special gift afterwards; if you let Meryl live, you get a bandana that gives you infinite ammo.
If you let Meryl die (which is what I did), Otacon gives you a stealth camo suit, which makes you invisible. Once you save after beating the game, you can play it all over again, but now you have whatever you won at the end of your first game. So I'm playing through with my camo suit and it's super fun. You can punch a guard or throw a stun grenade and they just get all confused. XD
When I got up, mom told me she was going to Dayton with dad and that if I got dressed real quick, I could come with. I did so and wound up having to wait forty minutes til both teh rents were ready to go, lol. *shakes head* I watched a little
Judge Karen and basically just chilled. We headed out around noon. Our first stop was a place that makes custom t-shirts for businesses.
Mom needed to get some new business shirts cuz her old ones are worn-out, so we dropped off her shirts there and then headed to The Christmas Tree Shop. I LOVE that store and I always freaking will. I got my own plates, plastic-ware (but the kind you keep! :D), cups, washclothes, dish towels, flip flops (for the showers), and an apple-corer, all for college! <3
I'm so excited, it's really fun to get my own, ya know, kitchenware and bath stuff and whatnot. I just feel so grown up, lol. X] After that, we went to The Greene (<333) and spent the next hour or two at the book store. I got a cheese danish and a frappe and this really awesome book (thus far, anyway) called, "
Killing Spree" by Kevin O'Brien. I like his style of writing, so I'm stoked to read more.
We stopped at Panera for me before going home cuz the only thing I had to eat all day was that cheese danish. I got my ushe sandwich and we finally went home. Oh, earlier in the day, dad got pissed at mom for making him miss his turn, but she was already crushed after having talked to the lawyer about closing on our NY house (everything's all good now, thankfully).
So I told him to just shut up about it and move on, and dad said something like, "No, she blames me all the time, blahblahblah." And then I said, "You know what, dad, let it go, mom already feels terrible." But you see, dad's got this hard-set belief that
all women will grow up to be controlling, psychotic, bitch wives to their husbands. That includes me, and he mentioned that in the car.
I almost swore at him right then (which I don't
ever do), I was so pissed off at him for saying that. He didn't say those words, exactly, but he said something about me marrying a guy and ruining his life, and I said, "I'm not getting married." and he said something like, "Well there's one guy who's safe." Like, seriously, you just told your fucking daughter that she's gonna ruin a man's life?
Fucking thanks, dad. THANKS. I seriously fucking hate him sometimes. Who says that kind of shit? God. Anywho, um, now we're home watching
Cash Cab. We're gonna watch some
Burn Notice later and then I'm gonna go back to MGS. Speaking of, title of this post is from the game. I wanna play MGS2 with Nick, but he's feeling sick today, so he's prolly gonna sleep.
There's a new show on Showtime (or is it HBO?) called, "
Hung" about...well, a guy who's hung, lol and, with the help of his friend, he pimps himself out to lonely women, lol. It looks seriously hilarious, not to mention dirty as all get-out. But alas, I don't get Showtime
or HBO, lol. Uh...yeah, I don't really have anything else to say...
Love y'all - Mira/Doc/Kat *meow*
