today's news!

Eva: we found something that we think is the program you're looking for... How exactly should I get it to you? Any idea?

Mmm. Drew and I were talking about the various degrees of excitement in our lives (he won, hands down) and I somehow ended up telling them all a few of my telemarketer stories. *le sigh* Little known fact about me: I love getting calls from telemarketers, but only because I have a fantastic time tormenting them (all of you who have/are telemarketers are more than welcome to shoot me through the foot right now). It's apparently "against the rules" for them to hang up on you, after all, so I have a blast... I once kept a guy on the phone for eight hours with my so-called pencil trick. My favorite is still the milk gag, closely followed by the telemarketer-gone-psychiatrist trick.

I'm not evil, I just enjoy what I do...

On another note, slyfox78 met This Boy's mom today. Apparently the meeting didn't go nearly as bad as she'd expected (thank goodness!) and, so far as we know, things are cool. Huzzah. ^_^ She and I did venture into the Christian Book and Music store over at the mall today and were frightened out within minutes. One of the bumper stickers they sold was condemning us to Hell--I think the exact wording was "If you don't believe in Jesus, you had better hope you're right!", with flames creeping up from the bottom and stuff. We ran away. ^^;;;

Totatlly went to my first 4D (SciFi, Anime, and Fantasy Club here at school) this evening and thoroughly enjoyed myself. Drew was wearing a leash (silly boy) and so I got to lead him around by the leash for a good long while. Almost ended up strangling him at one point, but he lived, so it's all good. *shrug* The meeting itself was fun. Once all the business-business was out of the way, everyone pretty much joked around and talked. It was fun. I'll seriously have to consider going again next week.

Speaking of which, I promised Holly that I'd drag Drew to the FPA meeting tomorrow evening. I must remember to do that.

I've been on a writing spree lately! Last week I wrote a shoddy GW fic, which I sent to T-san to beta (she's like God, except not because she'd accuse me of blasphemy or whatever if I even said that near her). Haven't gotten that back yet, but that's quite all right; I used to take weeks upon weeks to get stuff back to her and she's usually pretty good about giving me my stuff back within a week. And she's having problems with the home-life right now (allergies, among other things), so she has an excuse. I just procrastinate like crazy--thus the reason why I'm not big into beta-reading anymore. ^^;;; Anyway, I'm waiting to get that back from T-san before I update my site again. Aside from the lousy GW fic, I've written a short Gravitation story--already posted--and an original story, "Love Spell", which Joan promised to edit for me. She's such a nice girl. *pet pet*

It's odd, but it seems like the more I write the crappier everything gets. *pokes the OS and the GW fic* Bad bad bad. Rawr.

I also started writing another Gravitation fic this morning in math class. This one is from the point of view of Maiko (Shuichi's sister), which is something I've never really seen in all my Gravi-reading. *shrug* Maybe math is good for something after all.

I need to empty my trash can. *guilty* I meant to do it yesterday but never got around to it--perhaps I'll go do that now. Mmm...

*runs off to empty trash*
